husband. Arthur Hosier, and his sten
Dpniilicr, Ml-s Mildred Ctoraldlne Heck
ltt, then suddenly became se faint that
detectives were sent flying for u doctor
fend the trial halted.
Sirs. Hosier, who Is being tried for
the murder of the girl In her husbnnd's
fcffice, at 1.114 Walnut street, en Jnnti
ry 21, went te the Court of Quarter
Besslens, Heeni 4."3, City Hall, In a
versc condition than en any of the six
previous days of her trial.
She was complaining of n pain about
ker heart, and her thin fare, with Its
big Iren n eyes, 'was haggard from want
of sleep and drawn with suffering. She
said she had net slept last night, and
had been ill most of thu hours of the
night and this morning. Her weak
ness began te make itself Evident a
ihert time after the trial started.
A detective en the witness stand hndi
Just rend a statement she had made I
Ttlthin an hour of the sheeting, In u
police station house, mid which he had
copied down and preserved.
"My husband killed his first wife
he broke her heart," he rend dramati
cally. "I married him because I was
E
eung. I thought 1 could win and
old him. Hut no ene woman eeulil
bold blm."
Surgeon Is Sent Fer
Mrs. Hosier, weeping wildly, slumped
In her seat nnd her bend rolled limp en
her pillowing arms. The police wit
ness paused in his narrative. Detec
tive Tyson was sent out for a police
surgeon. Mrs. Hosier was quickly re
stored, though she was still weak and
ill when sh snt up ngnln and tried te
smile and thank these who had helped
her.
The trial started n few moments late
this morning, Judge Barratt net arriv
ing until five minutes after 10. Jehn
H. K. Scott and William Cenner, at
torneys for Mrs. Hosier, and Mmirlee
Speiser, Assistant District Attorney,
Jirefecuting the case, already were In
their placer. Mrs. Hosier was led In,
pile ninl tremb'ing, n few moments
ifter the Judge had taken his place.
Mr. Speiser held u side-bar oonter eonter oenter
tnee immediately. It lasted five min
utes, and the attorneys for the defense
took part. When it was ever Mr. Spel
ler crewed the room and conferred
Mth Assistant District Attorney Kelly,
ivlie hud remu In. Then Detective Key
was wiled te the witness stand.
Mr. Siieiser then called Detective
toy te the stand as the first witness.
As the detective prepared te be sworn
n Judge llarratt addressed the spec
tators Judge Warns Spectators ,
"I think I might te say, before going
n with the proceedings," said the
judge, "that no expressions of approval
r disapproval will be permitted from

Wise will be tolerated. I mentioned
Wis yesterday, but it seemed fe have

An iiiiucciiMemcd hush fell ever the
Jourtieom at the Judge's word. The
femen spectators, many of whom had
teen whispering ami tittering, quieted
own and wit with a meek expression
n their faces, but a rebellious glitter
la tlieir ejes.
Sir. Speiser then questioned Pov as

The Rev. S. D. McConnell De
nies Divinity of Christ
and Miracles
ONCE WAS RECTOR HERE
The Rev. Samuel Davis McConnell,
for fourteen years rector of St.
Stephen's 'Kpicepal Church, of this
city, has just published a book In which
he denies the divinity of Christ, re
nounces the foundations upon which
Christianity has been built and calls
the records of the miracles In the New
Testament "Incredible."
Dr. McConnell remained nt St.
Stephen's from 1SK2 until 1S00. He
was succeeded by Dr. Carl K. (Jratn
mer. the present rector. Prem Phila
delphia lie went te Hely Trinity.
Hroeklyn. He wns made archdeacon of
Hroeklyn in 1SDS. He is new living
near ICasten, Md.
His hook he calls "The Confessions
of nn Old Priest," nnd en 4he jacket
of It lie explains something of his rea
sons for writing it :
Leng Henialned Silent
"I have been for fifty years a min
ister in the Church. I eutered the min
istry with enthusiasm, believing as I
did that the Church was the one or
ganization in the world of divine In
stitution, thnt It ewes its origin te
Jesus Christ nnd that He wns the
unique Sen of (ied. 1 have been reluc
tantly led te the conclusion thnt none
of these things is true.
"Se far I have been sllejvt, for I
wnntid te be sure before speaking.
Fifty years Is mrely long enough for
consideration. New I openly aew my
convictions and leave it te the Church
te de wltli me as It sees fit. Hut I
confess I de se with the hope that nfter
I have said all I have te say the church
may decide that 1 nnd Mich ns I have n
place In its ministry.
"I set forth here the steps and stages
through which I have come te the 'place
where I stand, the mere wil'lngly he
cause I u m sure many another has
passed through the same phases of faith
te its eclipse and lias kept silent us I
have done."
Dr. McConnell denls ruthlessly with
the miracles of the New Testament,
lie writes:
Calls Miracles "Incredible" v
"I believe the record te be Incredi
ble in the strictest meaning of the word.
I hne become convinced that miracles
de net happen, never have happened
and ought net te happen. The ground
of my convictions is my Idea of Ced.
Te take an instance, the twelfth chap- i
ter of the Acts of the Aiiestles tells1
the story of Peter being delivered from
prison by the miraculous interposition
of nn nngel. " It nppears that the1
mirncle by which Peter and the Church
nrelited was secured nt the cost of the '
lives of u dozen innocent soldiers, who
had never heard the name of Peter 01
bis Master. There is the story. De
1 believe it? 1 de net."
Dr. rucCeiinell contends that the
Known facts about the life of Christ
would fill less than u column of news,
paper space. In a chapter called
"Jesus of the d'espcls" he declare!) that
far less Is known About the life of
Christ than there is of u number of his
contemporaries.
Sees Paganism in Church
He would seem te believe thnt Jesus
was only incidental in the founding of
the Church; that the rites and rituals
of the church are far mere pagan than
Chrl-tl. He suggests that It was the
violent religious j earnings of that day
which appropriated Jesus ns the Mes
siah. Dr. McConnell conies te this con
clusion :
"The educated and practical world
are both alike steadily drawing awn) ,
from the ( liureti. 1 liave watched this,
meement for fifty years. Cun any
thing be done te reverse it, or te turn
it in a different direction? First of all.

he sent that mini nnd two ethers te

In the basement of the tlreheuse.
The efficacy of his tact heds of quell

fact that the three offenders, wbne
brought upstairs Inler, submitted te the
lectures that were handed out te them.
Incidentally. It was n pretty geed

with tse offense of having his license

as be told wiie he was, the squire
cbrcklcd gleefully.
"Your concern gives me mere trouble

clearing his desks for action. "Yeu are
consistent violators of the law. Yeu
turn out autos se that the bumpers

"I'm going te appeal," he declared.

"I wunt te call my lawyer."

"And I don't want te go," admitted

Philadelphia Organization leaders
are en tip te te s,(. what happens
when Congressman Vare meets (ilfferd
Pinchot, Hcpubllcan nemine for Gov Gov
ereor this uftritioeti.
Tlie Ferester metered here from his
home at Milferd, Pik County, and ex
pects te see Mr. Vine and possibly
ether lenders before resuming Ids cam
paign tour tonight.
Organization leaders who are Inter
ested say that the least In "Hill" Vnrc's
movements these days, nnd especially
In his nttltude toward the ambitions
of Jeseph C. Trainer te succeed him
nt Washington, nre wnndcilng whether
"Hill" will speak te Mr. Pinchot en
behalf of all Organization leaders in the
city. It developed this morning that
some of the leaders would like te speak
for themselves; It was different, they
saj, when Senater Vare was alive.
Trainer Preparing te Strlhe
The Trainer situation is becoming
acute, and It Is understood tlmt Harry
J. Trainer, leader of the Third Ward
and thu Hichelleu of the Trainer eem-
I blnatlen, Is getting ready te strike if
( eiigressuuin aie persists in homing
elT en the question of having Jeseph C.
Trainer go te Congress.
Vare- leaders Insist there Is nothing
et worry nbeut ns "nothing bus been
settled." Trainer's' friends thought it
had been settb-d that Vare was te go
te the Senate and that Trainer was te
go te Congress.
When one pieminent Vnre Council
man was asked about the Trainer mat
ter, he countered by asking:
"Is Trainer .1 candidate?"
Anether Vare leader suggested thnt
he could net see why any one would
care le be a Congressman, all of which
Is net enci.uraging te the Trainer co
lons. Hence there is talk t lint tlie bat
tle between "Hill" Vaiv and the Train
els for the contiel of eutli Philadelphia
in.ij start sooner than expected.
Yere's Hat In the King
Cenirressmiin Vare is exceedingly nc-
1 the and very much en the job nnd in
1 dicates that in nnj dlscu"dun of Organ
ization leadership, his hat Is in the ring.
It is believed much wl.l depend ou the
trend of bis talk with Mr. Pinchot.
One of the moving causes for Con
gressman Wire's plan te enter the enate
was that thereby he could strengthen
himself locally by warming up te I'lu
rhut. Thin plan, of cum se, overlooks
whatever may be en Mr. Pliichet's
mind with respect te local polities and
the effect that lb- new trtti- adminis
tration will have en tlie inajeialty dec
