LOUDERBACK'S SIDE NEAR COMPLETION More Witnesses Deny Feesf Were Divided With Cali- fornia Judge. By the Associated Press An effort to conclude their case to- morrow was promised the Senate ves- | terday by attorneys for Federal Judge Harold Louderback of California as they hammered into his impeachment trial more evidence that none of the| fees paid officers of his court went to him W. S. Leake, San Francisco healer and intimate of the judge, is expected to take the stand, with miuch interest attached to his appearance By Senators, who have begun to look on hint as some- thing of a mystery. From two more witnesses the Senate heard that no share of the amounts they received as attorneys in receiver- ship cases before the judge went to Louderback—the same ‘evidence given vesterday by two other defense testifiers. | Guy H. Gilbert, telegraph operator and for many years connected with the Western Union in San Francisco and a Teceiver in four cases involved in the impeachment charges, all of which con- | cern receivers and attorneys, told his story to the Senate. | Division of Fees Denied. | Preceding him to the stand was John | Dinkelspiel of the firm of Dinkelspiel & Dinkelspiel, which served as counsel for Gilbert in some cases and which is named in the specific indictments in- volving the receivership of the Fageol Motor Co. and the Prudential Holding Co. Dinkelspiel and Gilbert each said no part of the fees paid them was given | to Judge Louderback, and each ex- plained in some detail his services in the various cases. | The House charges that Gilbert, re- | ceiver for the Fageol Motor Co., was in- | competent and that fees allowed him | and Dinkelspiel’s firm were excessive in | some of the cases designated in the im- | peachment articles. To Chairman Sumners, Democrat, of Texas, of the House Judiciary Commit- tee and chief of the prosecution, cross- examining him, Gilbert conceded he | had no experience “in that particular line” in the Fageol Motor Co. case. But, he went on with a description of his work, he had applied the principles | of efficiency learned in the Western | Union office and had cut down expenses, | citing as one item the replacement of the president of the company and his! con to save $800 a month. Previous Connections. | The prosecution brought out that Gil- | bert had been connected with cases be- fore Louderback while the latter was a State judge, and went into many de- tails of these and subsequent matters in which he took part. In concluding the cross-examination of H. B. Hunter, named receiver for the Russell-Colvin Brokerage Co., after | Louderback had removed Addison G. Strong, the House brought out that he | had conferred with attorneys for the | San Francisco Stock Exchange and at one time had been assistant to the ex- change president. Representative Browning, Democrat, | of Tennessee, directing this questioning, | explained.it was because “the effort has | been made here to show some sort of suspicious attitude toward the stock ex- change,” referring to defense conten-| tion that Strong’s removal was attrib- | utable to a desire of the judge “to di- vorce” the receivership from the ex- hange, as Strong wanted for his attor- °y Florence McAuliffe of the law firm presenting the exchange, [ Daniel MeGarrigle, whe once was hauffeur for the Kaiser and later WWorld War hero on the side of the | Allies, has died near Strabane, Irish | Free State. — = NO-CONNEETION WITH ANY_ OTHER WASHINGTON STORE Lansburgh’s And Robins Are Hatched From Nest on Boom Of Coal Mine Crane By the Associated Press.
