Stanley B.

Keith, metallurgical engineer of Montclair, N. explained the apparatus to the Jurors. The nails were enlarged under the stere optlcon lens. The commonwealth contended the nails were brought from Germany by Fugmann when he settled here years ago and that they matched those used to construct the crude "cigar bombs which killed Thomas Maloney, former head of a defunct miners' union; his son, Thomas, Jr, and Michael Gallagher, aged ceme tery caretaker. The defense objected to use of the camera but Judge Samuel Bhull over ruled the objection.

Keith said from the witness stand that he believed it was the first time such an apparatus has been used for that purpose. He said he fcund two types of nails in the bombs, each of which had been stamped from a dlf ferent die. He testified that die marks found on one type tallied with die marks on nails found on a cabinet in Fug mann's home. The other type, Keith said, matched nails taken from Fug' mann's shoes.

CAHHX AND BENTLEY TRIAL NEARING END.

Philadelphia, Oct. 1. The case of SPANISH REBELS The Madrid government prepared itself for a long siege today as the oncoming Nationalist insurgents threatened to encircle the Capital. Although the rebels have confident ly boasted that they will enter the Capital by Oct. 12, if the sieges of other cities are any criterion it may be a long while before Madrid falls.

The war is now nearing the start of its fourth month. It took almost that length of time for the rebels to cap ture Toledo. Similarly, the rebels are still hold ing out at Oviedo, on the northwest coast, despite a long and violent siege. Other besieged cities also are holding out in various parts of the country The Madrid government, muster ing further volunteers and conscripts, seemed determined to fight it out. Much reliance was placed on the re serves from the east coast, who so far have been called on to do no fighting.

Madrid recognized the grave danger of being cut off from the sea, how ever, by the advancing rebels in the Toledo area, who are threatening the important railroad Junction of Ar anjuez, 34 miles north of Toledo, which controls the line to Alicante on the coast. Consequently, the government took every precaution to conserve the food and water supply. Most of the water comes from the northeast the city, and is not menaced unless the rebels break through in the Guadarrama or Hue sea sectors. The government seemed to feel that the food supply from Immediately adjacent districts would suffice, if controlled. The rebels, nevertheless, felt sure of victory.

Their strongest man, Gen. Francisco Franco, was placed in su Jnreme command as military and, gov ernmental dictator. Franco has prov' en his ability at military strategy and it did not seem likely that he would overplay his hand by forcing the war, but rather drive steadily and cau tiously to his objectives.
