HARRIS LETS WIFE
FIGHT SUIT ALONE
Husband in Damage Case Keeps Off
Witness Stand, Spending Time
in Court House Corridors.
ARGUMENTS CONCLUDED TODAY
The lawyers' arguments in the
case of Harris against The Bee were
begun before Judge Graves yester
day afternoon and will be concluded
this morning. Opening for The Bee,
Attorney Stanley M. Rosewater re
viewed the evidence of the different
witnesses and laid stress upon the
purposeful absenting of Myer Harris,
husband, from the witness stand. He
asked the. Jury blnntly whether any
one of them if, were his wife
similarly accused arl he had been
her constant companion in every
transaction described, and had seen
and heard everything said and idone,
he would keep balden out in the cor
ridor without coming to her defense,
and he suggested, as the only plausi
ble reason, the fear of Harris to be
subjected to the scrutiny arl cross
examination of his own acts.
For the plaintiff, Attorney Saw
telle consumed nearly an hour with
a statement designed to soft-pedal
the woman's story and will be fol
lowed by Attorney Bronie. The clos
ing argument will be made by At
torney W. J. Connell.
Myer Hard Appears.
The trial wu resumed yetserday
when the man in the affair, Myer Har
ris, who had previously been careful to
absent himself from view of the Jury,
fame in and sat down in a conspicuous
chair, where his attorney, Sawtelle. con
ferred with him several times with his
arm around his shoulders.
The testimony was confined to rebut
tal by Jeweler Cunningham and his
clerk. Miss Thompson, and the county
attorney of Pottawattamie county, and
then the Harris people were taken al
most off their feet when Victor Rose
water, editor of The Bee, presented a
copy of the World-Herald of July 15,
1913, in which Mks. Jlarrls had positively
sworn she had read the advertisement
offering for sale a restaurant In Council
Bluffs, to look at which she and her
husband had thereupon taken the street
car across the river, as explaining their
vlalt to the Council Bluffs Jewelry store
where they had asked to see a child's
ring, but looked at diamonds In each
place. This newspaper, which was in
troduced in evidence, showed a goodly
list of restaurants and hotels advertised
for sale in Omaha and other towns, but
not a single one in Council Bluffs.
Rose. water Ok Stand.
Q. Were 'you present In the court room
when Mrs. Harris testified regarding see
ing a certain advertisement in the World
Herald on July 15, IMS, relating to some
place for rent over in Council Bluffs,
which she assumed to describe to the
Jury? You heard that, did jrou?
A. Tea, I heard It.
Q. Kow, have you at my request, or
the request of my Associate, made a care
ful examination er Inspection of toe fllea
of the World-Herald to ascertain and de
termine whether any such publication
ttas made at the time that she stater T
Mr. Brome We object to that.
Mr. Connell That la merely preliminary,
whether he has made any inspection.
Mr. Brome Well, go ahead. .
The Court He may answer.
A.-I have.
Q.-Wlll you turn to the World-Herald
of July IS, 1P13, and say about where it is
found?
A. Tes. I will turn down jthe page.
Q. Or put thla slip in; will do Just as
well. Mr. Rosewater, you may state to
this Jury If you have carefully and thor
oughly examined that newspaper of that
elate, referring to the World-Herald of
July IS, 1913, and say whether there la to
be found Tn that paper anywhere any
advertisement of the nature, description
or purport. In any way of the article or
advertisement as testified to by tie
plaintiff in this case? ."
Wants Paper la RTldeJpce.
Mr. Brome: That is objected to as lii
' competent, irrevelant and Immaterial
They ore entitled to put that paper In
evidence. I'ntll it (a in evidence no man
cen testify whether anything does or
does not appear on Its face and after It is
In evidence one man can tell, and this
Jury can tell as well as anybody whether
npeara there. Of course, where It Is
a big, bulky paper, after it Is evidence
I suppose C witness might be permitted
to testify that an Item did or did n t
appear there. But the nature and char
acter of the Item to which this plaintiff
referred when on the witness stand In
not something that this witness will be
allowed to determine, in my opinion,
Mr. Connoll: We will cut this thing
short and I will offer in evidence tii?
newspaper snd then I will take tin
course you suggest and examine .Mr.
Rosewater in ie(ard to whether any au'-h
thing is to be found in it. We offer u
evidence the newspaper referred to the
whole of it.
Mr. Brome: I have no objection to iho
newspaper.
Q. Now, Mr. Rosewater, the paper hav
ing been received in evidence, I will ak
u If you made a careful, thorough ex
amination to find In that newspaper any
where and everywhere In It any adver
tisement of the nature and description
testified to by Mrs. Hsrria?
No Rlaffs Ad.
A. There Is no advertisement of any
restaurant for snle or lease in Court;!
fluffs in that paper.
Q. Right in that connection, what i'
the tct as to whether or not there nr..
a number of advertisements reardlnK
the sale or rental or disposal of such
Places and. without stating what they
are, will you point out in the paper
where there are any of that purported
character. If you have found any?
Mr.- Brome: 1 object to that as in
comDetent. irrelevant and immaterial,
and not proper rebuttal.
The. Court: Tou can mark the eihlMt
so aa to more specifically point to tho
articles that you desire to call the at
tention of the Jury to.
Q. la there one there with regard to
a place of that character, "cheap?"
A. One In Omaha, yea,
Mr. Brome: Walt a moment. I object
tOj the testimony of the witness as to
any subject except the one they have
a tlcht to rebut on.
The Court: Very . good. Sustained.
A. Do you want me to mark those that
relate to hvtels and restaurants?
Q. tes. fore. sale;. or .any. .them that
are for aale "cheap."
I will numr them. There is

seven, eight, nine, ten. They are not all
in Omaha; but none In Council Bluffs.
With this printed contradiction stsr
Ing at them. Brome and "sawtelle, the
attorneys for Mrs. Harris, secured from
Judge Graves an order for a recess until
3 o'clock, to give them time to determine
how to meet the situation.
Doing; Bomr. Patrb Work.
After the recess, the perturbation of
Mrs. Harris' lawyers, which had caused
them to oblect so strenuously to bringing
In the contents of this papi was visibly
allayed. Their industry had been re
warded by discovering a want ad about
a Council Bluffs restaurant In the issue
of the World-Herald of the preceding
Sunday, and they put Mrs. Harris back
on the stand to retrace her steps and
patch up thedecrepancy.
This time. In answer to Mr. Brome'a
questions, It waa a Sunday World-Herald
and not a Tuesday World-Herald that he
husband had bought from a newsboy
and brought to her before 8 o'clock
on that Tuesday morning, although
how the newsboy happened to be selling
a Sunday paper on Tuesday, she did not
know. Timely objections prevented her
from answering any questions going to
show that the same Sunday paper con
tained advertisements of several for-saJe-Cheap
restaurant right In Omaha, which
would make it unnecessary for them to
go to Council Bluffs to find one.
