He de manded a trial and the chance to prove that he was not guilty but this was re fused him by the judge who dismissed the case with the statement that It was dismissed because he was not kullty.and no further trial was needed. The last in the dives were three Japanese women who were allowed to sleep in their-rooms Tuesday night and then ordered out the next day. They would have gone before but they had no place to go.
