Chase will have an opportunity to be represented by counsel before the committee to pre- sent witnesses in his behalf.

The witness said he had been told that one of these accounts was carried jointly by Smith and the attorney general. Senate officials formally turned over to the district attorney the caso of Harry F.

Sena- tor Robinson of Arkansis, the Democratic leader, replied that no resignation ‘“‘will.be permitted to Protect an offencing office holder.” After Senator Walsh had explain- ed the circumstances under which the impeachment move was made, senator Spencer withdrew his objec- tion. Senator Bursum, however, asked that the resolution go over unti! tomorrow. BANK TRANSACTIONS WITH FALL LEARNED. WASHINGTON, March 25.—M. D. Thatcher, president of the First National bank of Pueblo, Colo., was questioned by the oll committee to- day about financial transactions between A. B. Fall and that bank. The witness said that Fall had been a customer of the bank since 1913 or 1914. “Did the bank make any loan to him during 1921?" asked Senator Walsh. “I have the records here. No sir,” said the witness. “Or '19222" ‘No, sir.” Thatcher sald Fall borrowed $15,000 from the bank in 1916 and after an interview with Under Sec.| Pursuant to such conspiracy, the| paid it in May, 1922. retary of War Manzo.

We loaned them $100,000, and there is an overdraft of about $22,000 which has probably been consolidated into a note. It wag loaned in separate notes running from $5,000 to $10,- 000.

WASHINGTON, March 25. Further inquiry into the financial affairs of Albert B. Fall ané into stock speculation by high offi clals was made today by the ofl committee at a brief and colorless session, It then adjourned until Thursday. M. D. Thatcher, president of the First National Bank of Pueblo. Colo., was questioned about Fall's bank account ‘nd afterward Sena- tor Walsh the committee prosecutor announced that the checkup show- ed that the former interior secre- t had acquired $32,000 for the purchase of ranch property from a 80 © yet undis ed. It previous en indicated, the senate the funds might have » from the Thatcher interests. From Anderson H. Tackett, an tant, the committee received er details regarding the dum- Stock accounts of Jess W. ‘hb, the close friend of Attorney The transactons, the witness sald, were “through Mr. Everhart. “Mr. Everhart told me,” sald Thatcher “that they were trying to make improvements which would run as high as $200,000. He asked me if I would be able to make a loan. I sald yes, if reasonable. The advances have reached $102,000 or $103,000 with interest for the few months passed.” “Anything sald about security?” “I bad security. I had the stock of the cattle company.’ Thatcher listed the loans. ‘The first was in 1921 and the next was on September 22, 1922. Thatcher said he knew nothing about Fall's purchase of the Harris ranch for $91,500, nor where the money came from. Senator Walsh wanted to know details about Fall's borrowings from the bank. “I think until this Ioan for wa- ter power improvements, the maxt. mum was $25,000 a year,” said the witnes: ‘Bhatcher said he would not have advanced money to purchase new properti He identified Everhart as Fall's s both t a cousin cher listed ings under the Everhart as follows: January 19, 1923, $15,000; April 13, $4,000 (prebably a consolidation, the witness 0; July 9, $15,000; July 27, $10,000; August 16, $5,000; W.

D. Thatcher estate company, and went into the checking account of the cattle company. His under- standing was that the loans were secured by all of the property, in- cluding the Harris ranch or any other land Fall's company bought. Senator Walsh checked over the records of deposits in the cattle company’s account. They corres- ponded with the amounts and dates of the loans by the Thatcher com- ny. Asked whether Fall got any loans except those in the name of the cattle company, the witness replied “Nothing during the period you speak of,” “Was there any other?" asked Senator Adams, Democrat, Color- ado. ; “There was a loan to Fall in Jan- uary, 1921 of $15,000, That was to cover loans carried over from 1916 or 1917." “Were there any other records in your bank of people connected with Mr. Fall showing any loans?” asked Senator Dill, Democrat, Washington, “Mr, Everhart had an account.” “Did you Joan him through your company?” “He had an interest with us. He was our manager in Colorado and New Mexico,” “No loans to him in relation to Fall ranch?” ‘othing that I know of.” Anderson H. Tackett, an account- ant of the federal trade commis- sion, gave the committee more de- tails of the oll stock transactions ot Jess W. Smith, confidant of Attorney General Daugherty. He said Smith's account, listed as W. was closed out and a “W. W. Spaid number 2" account was opened, which the witness said he had been told at the office of the brokerage firm of H. B. Hibbs and company, was a joint account of Smith and Daugh- erty. » Asked what the net result of the operations of this account was, Tackett sald it was difficult to say, but that there might have been a total loss of $24,000. This was in th 1922, . There was a transaction by Smith of 1,200 shares of Sinclair Consolidated, ‘Tackett said, with a net profit of $3,317. In addition Smith’s account showed a trans- action in 100 shares of Mexican Petroleum with a profit of $556; and a transaction in 800 shares of Mexican Seaboard with a loss of $172. ——————___. J. K.
