Laupp said the bank had done business in forming the Adriatic Steamship Company, but that all ob- ligations had been liquidated at least three years ago.

IN SUMMING UP tinued from First Ps Justice Hoehling took up the ques. tion of prayers immediately upon the opening of court, and with the ap. proval of both sides, excused the jury Mr. Hogan then made his motion on behalf of Mr. Doheny that the court direct a verdict of not guilty. The motior ted that a verdict of not guilty be directed “as to each of the defendants in this case.” In support of the motion fendant submitted that the offered by the Government show the alleged unlawful anything approximating one. The motion further declared that the Ex- ecutive order of M 31, 1921, was and is vold and ineffective to impose upon the Secretary of the Interior ar speot of leases and cont to the naval petroleum r of the United States. Another p1se in the motion stated there wa itter want of evidence of any agreement betw I and Doheny that the former vequest or other would ard or procure the award of the esaid two contracts and the afore- aid lease.” The motion -agraph: All of the evidence adduced by United States conclusively pi that the rd of the said contracts and the said lease was not made and could not have been made as a re sult 1y prior agreement plan, confederation or conspiracy between the defendants.” Moti Justice Hoehling refused the mo tion, which was in the form of prayer No. 1 for the defendants. The court announced that the Gov- ernment presented 28 prayers day afternoon and the defens mitted 45 yesterday. The court both sides had been furnished wi copies and they were taken up by numbers and argued without any reference being made in open court as to their contents. Amendments were made here and there, some were accepted_and others were refused.

Justice Hoehling overruled that request, adding “I'm not going to say tha The three-hour entire morning ses: sion, was devoted entirely by counsel for the Government and defense in arguing thelr prayers before the court. Mr. Roberts presented 28 spe- cific prayers for instructions to the jury. On behalf of the defense, Mr. Hogan presented a list of 45. A num- ber of these were eliminated by mu- tual consent. From the climax of last weck¥when spectators were held in suspense by the dramatic scene presented in court, the proceedings today were changed to a long and tedious argument over technical legal points.
