ACCUSED LIQUOR - AGENT ARRESTED Directed Verdict Given in Seattle Gonspiracy Case Seattle, Sept. 3 (#—With, one de- fendant in the Lyle-Whitney prohi- bition conspiracy case acquitted by directed verdict, Federal Judge Frank H. Norcross today consided- | ed a similar motion in behalf of an- other of the four men remaining on trial. | The court ordered the acquittal Vesterday of Clifford T. McKinney, former prohibition administrator, Wwho with William M. Whitney, chief Associgted iiess I'hu ROY C. LYLE assistant, Roy C. Lyle, R. L. Fryant and Earl Corwin, former federal agents, was charged with accepting bribes from rum runners in a con- spiracy to permit importation of liquor to the United States. The judge ruled McKinney's vig- orous prosecution of liquor law vio- lators constituted affirmative with- drawal from any conspiracy with them. The defense had contended throughout that the charges against McKinney. even if true, were out- lawed by the statute of limitations. Roy Olmsted, one time Puget Sound liquor baron, had testified he gave McKinney $3,000 in 1926 as a campaign contribution for Thomas P. Revelle, then United States attor- new who was running for governor, and had made him presents of money and gin later. Olmsted also testified his relations with McKinney had ceased in 1926. McKinney later conducted the pros- ecution which resulted in Olmsted's conviction A directed verdict was asked for Fryant on the grounds that testi- mony offered by the government had not involved him in the alleged con- spiracy. This motion was taken un- der advisement. Judge Norcross de- nied a motion for a directed verdict in behalf of Lyle, Whitney and Cor- | | by Censor—(UP)—A European ser- | win.
