TRIAL COURT TAKES ACTION Decides That Bank of North America Lost Nothing by Calvin Austin Loan of $100,000 and Orders Evidence Re- garding It Stricken From the Rec- ord—Counsel . ‘Begin Summing Up Case for J\ifiy. New York, Nov. 3.—One of the most important allegations in connec- tion with the charge of misappropria- tion contained in the indictment against Charles W. Morse and A. H. Curtis has been thrown out of court. The misappropriation allegation was made .in connection with a $100,000 note given by Calvin Austin. Austin claimed Morse had the note discount- ed and used the préeeeds without his consent. After all the evidence was in the attorneys went before Judge Hough In his chambers for argument on law points and later it wgs announced that the counts in the indictment re- ferring te the Calvin Austin loan of $100,000 had been stricken eut. The defense contended that the National Bank of North Anferica had suffered no damage as a result of the transac- tlon and this view apparently was taken by Judge Hough. This charge was regarded as the most important in the government'’s allegation of mis. appropriation against the prisoners. Mr. Littlefield then began the clos- ing arguments for the defense. After declaring that the defense contended that no crime had been committed by elther defendant Mr. Littlefield cau- tiemed the jury that should the court err in charging the law the defense has a remedy through an appeal. But should the jury err in its opinion the defense was without remedy to cor- vect it. FOUR MORE PLEAD GUILTY Contractors of Boston Fined for Work- - ing in Collusion.
