KIEFF, Oct. 8. After lying in jnil for two years and n hnlf. Jlcn- uci neiii was piaccil on inai t day in the criminal section of the Kieff district court for "ritunl mur der." On account of tho extraordi nary interest the rate has attracted throughout Kurope, the courtroom wns packed by a cosmopolitan throng when Judge Uoldyreff nnd hi associates mounted the bench and began the impanelling of n jury. Charges Tniinpoil Up Kver since the morning of April 1, 1911, when the mutilated body of Andrei Ultiichinsky, a 12-yenr-old rtirintinn bov, was found in an abandoned brickyard jtut outside Kieff the prosecution has been en deavoring to establish tho thcorv that he was slain in accordance with an alleged Jewish rite precribcd by tho Talmud, so that his blood might be used in making passovcr bread. For centuries tho ignorant and su perstitious Jew-baiters of lltissin have clung to the belief thnt this "rite'' is regularly practiced by the Jewish race, nnd the government has apparently done all it could to fos ter this idea. M. Krnssovsky. chief of tho Kieff detective department, was actually instructed to proceed on the theory that the crime wns the work of Jews, although the only possible pretext for tlio "ritunl" charge was that tho hoy's body bore forty-seven slab wounds. Accord ing to current superstition the "rit ual murder" is accomplished by forty-five wounds. He could obtain absolutely no evidence along the re quired lines, but on the contrary be lieved he had traced the murder to a gang of thieves to which neighbors of the bov s family belonged nnd who were known to be fearful that Yuschinsky would betray them to Ihe authorities. lie secured evidence thnt one of the thieves was seen with n chisel shortly bofore the murder nnd thnt this same imple ment, covered with blood, wns found by two boys near tho brick-kiln nf lerwards. The boys, upon orders of th thief, threw it into n sewer. I '(dice Itcpriumudctl When Krassovsky iiiudo his first report to his superiors, he was sternly reprimanded. Later ho was practically forced by them to arrest Mieiidol Ueilis, a Jew, -10 years of age, foreuinn of thu brickyard, in whose room one of tho thieves' gung said ho hud found some of the boy's clothing. On producing fur ther ovideuce indicating tho guilt of tho thieves and tho innocence of Ileilis, Krassovsky was dismissed from office. When a fresh inxesli- gntion wns mndo under tho direction of his successor, M. MiMehouk, he nnd his nsistmits quickly eamo to tho conclusion that the ritual mur der theory wns fantastically untrue nnd so reported to the authorities Tlio result was not only the dismissal of Mistchouk and two of his men. hut their nrrest on uhnrges of "fab ricating documents favorable to tho Jows."

CASE IN 0 ffi SHOWS SIGNS OF BE NG E Governor Extremely Nervous Sec retary Takes Blame for Financial Hixup Admits Ijjnorancc of Law and Kept No Accounts. ALHAN'Y, X. Y.t Oct. 8. Convinc ing William Stilzcr at the last mo ment that it would be unwise in him to take tho witness stand in his own defense, the ncnused executive's Inw ycrs rested their ease in the impeach ment trinl this afternoon. It was expected that the prosecu tion would put a few witnesses on tho stand in rehnttnl nnd that the concluding arguments would then be gin. It was tho general opinion that the closing day or two of the trial spelled defeat for tho governor. Defeat for Goernor The story told Monday by Allan A. Hyan, Thomas F. Hyatt's son, wns bad enough. Sulrer hnd tried to get him, he said, to use his influcnco with .Senator Root to use his influ ence in turn with "Hoss" Ilames to have tho republican stato senators suport the governor in tho im peachment case. This account, though Justice Cullen ruled it out, angered tho republican senators and set thctn, ns well ns tho Tammany forces, against tho governor. Hut worso wns to come. Tho im peachment court v,otcd to -overrule Cnllen nnd Kynn's testimony went hack into the record. Ho supple-, mented it, too. Stilzcr nlso, he said, asked him to urge Hoss Murphy to call off the Tammany attack on tho governor, promising if Murphy com plied to "do whtit wns right." Itynn Unwilling Wltno , ', . Hyan was not a willing witnesC Then npcared SuUcr's campaign secretary, Louis Snreeky, on tho stand. Sarecky's loynlty to tho governor wns admirable. Tlio secre tary took iton himself entire respon sibility for every campaign offenso or irrogulnrity charged against the governor, but tho admissions lie mndo of tlw reckless handling of Sulzer's enmpnign funds wero so ns touixhing that few auditors of his story but inclined to think tlio court would hold Sulzer himself must have known much of thu situation.
