Justice Frederick 1 Slddons ruled the Investigation was a part of the contempt proceedings and would be considered in his decision on tne main issue. In the absence of Sinclair, who had been excused from attendance, was the source of an almost bodily conflict between Martin W. Littleton, his counsel, and O'Leary. The prosecutor called for Sinclair to stand up and Littleton charged he knew at the time the oilman was excused. When the prosecutor said this was raise, Littleton rushed up to him and O'Leary removed his glasses, but the court ended the argument. Resuming the contempt proceedings witn juaweii, a juror in tne oil conspiracy trial, on the stand, the prosecutor said he intended to show that throughout the trial the juror had in mind the thought that he would be offered a bribe. He would also show, O Leary said, that Kidwell had expressed tjCB thoughts. ir Fake Help Call From Griffco Brings Censure SEATTLE, Wash.. Jan. 1J (AP).
