Washington, Special.?- Tho trial of Mrs. Lola Ida Honine, on tho charge of killing James Seymour Ayree, Jr., wmjb fairly launched Thursday. Tho preliminary presentation of the case on behalf of tho govormnout was mauo by AsNistaut LMsUicl Attorney 'Hugh 'J\ W> ii\) ' nv.u ton-' eluded a number of witnesses were board. Mr. Taggart's statement con sumed only about one hour ami fifteen minutes and consisted for tbe most part of the review of the clrcum* ptances connected with tho tragedy. Mr. Taggart stated tbe theory *ntt\e prosecution to bo tlmt Ayre3 wai mur dered by Mrs. Honine ami thaKsl.e gained admission to bis room in] (bo Kenmore Hotel, through tho window, reaching that by means of tbe Are o? cape. He attempted to show thud she was piqued by bis non-attentloiV. to her. Mrs. Bonlne apparently was W: moved by bis presentations, Oneo or twice during the address Bho loaned over and spoke to her attorneys. The witnesses of the day did m?t throw t)ny new light upon tho killing, in his Address Mr. Taggart. contended that there was a tlo between tho prisoner and the dead man in the fact tlmt Ayres was a student ot dentistry and she had studied medicine. As a conse quence she became a frequent visitor to his room nt the hotel, where they botlOlvod, not only In tho day time, but at night as well, "and," he added, "therefore tho door was not always open when Bho was there." Ho told of tho quarrels between thorn, saying that Ayres ceased to speult to her and that she complained of his ingrati tude. f "Wo expect to show." he said, "that while phe made ndvances to him Ayres did ndt avail hlmself'of the op portunity thus afforded, beyond danc ing with her again." Ho had danced with her on tho night the tragedy, but bad shown that' ho was n ? * n?i? ft * '?> n ??# 4U A "i no iV U IV 11 V. Ul \JK iUV IVM U?v,? familiar Intercourse. As an Instanco of his attitude toward Mrs. "Bonlne, Mr. Tnggart sold that Ayres had re fused to. accept a carnution from her on the Monday beforo tho killing. It was. therefore, evident, said tho speaker, that while he was Indifferent, there \vns a disposition on her part to mollify ' hlnS. "We will show," con tinued Mr. TuKKart, "that every act. step, proceeding on the part of the prisoner was the a^t of a guilty per son." "Mr. Taggart referred 'to Mrs. Bonine's confession an being princi pally intended to oxonerato herself. Ho thought the facts imlicatqd the shooting did not take place, K? Mrs. Ilonlno said; that Ayros had not gone to her room at all. as Bhe clalt*ed. Outlining the government's posR-lon, Mr. Taggart; said It would bo contend ed that Ayres had retired when tho person who killed him entered tho room and that she cam? In through the window, that ho aroso aq^started toward her; that she shot him the first wound being tho fatal ono In the* breast. Naturally his mouth had filled with blood and as naturally he had 'put his hands to his mouth. Then he grasped the pistol, thus accounting for tho blood upon- It. Mr. Taggart spoke for an hour and fifteen minuies. and Mr. Douglass for the defense said he would reserve his ^tfffeiU^tion of the ease. \ / ? % ~ir?\ Thomas Francis^ the flrst wltn^sj In tbo case, was th(*n railed, lie 1s A draughtsman who had prepared a dia gram pf (he fourth floor of tho Ken more Hotel, including Ayres' room/ He Identified tho drawing and gave .letnlls concerning tfie location and dimensions of tho room. The first witness in the afternoon was Harry A. Wise, a pho tographer, who had made photographs of Ayres' room on the day after the1 tragedy occurred. -Tho irfctnrre taken by him were presented and identified by thrfSvitnesa. Mr. Douglass objected to thoir acceptance as evidence^ on the grou n id _th a t_ they did not represent tho exact condition of the room when gyros' body was discovered. Ho thought their presentation should bo delayed until testimony should be tak en showing tho conditions wero the same when the body was found- a;id when the picture was made. Tho pho tographs were accepted by the court for ths pur'peso only of showing the i?cr manejnt physical condition of the room when they were taken. Julius Haar.k. another photographer, who had made photographs of tho Konmore Ifotel and of Ayres" room, also rdentlfleft the pic tures mads by him, and thoy w??ro ad mitted in evidence. The flrst witness who testified about t|?e events directly connected with the death of Ayres was Datalel Wood house, tfie colored waiter in the Kee?s*tra Motel, who discovered the fccf fly of the Toaafattii.
