AUCKLAND MURDER TRIAL.
GREAT FEMININE INTEREST. INCIDENT AT COURT. (By Telegraph.—Special to Standard.) AUCKLAND, May 15. The intensity with which the details of the Munn murder trial are being followed by a certain section of women of varying ages was well illustrated during the luncheon adjournment yesterday. The gallery reserved for women was cleared at one o’clock and the entrance to the Court at the foot of the gallery stairway was barred. A few minutes later the door was quite innocently unbarred bv the Crown Prosecutor, Mr Meredith, and in an instant it was flung wide and he and several others with him were brushed aside by a disorderly stampede of women back to the upstairs gallery from which they had just been ejected. There they spent the luncheon hour and the rest or the afternoon presumably in satisfied triumph.
