On resuming his argument yesterday morning Congressman Smith first took up the default judgment secured by Doyle against Burns in the courts here about three years ago, He referred to the fact that that judgment included a one-half in ter in 69,000 shares of stock belonging to Harnan, issued to him in 1895 for his share in the Devil's Own, with the knowl edge and approval of Doyle. This stock never did belong to Burns or Doyle, and Doyle now admits though he is will- ing in the absence of Burns to take judg- ment against him for the amount of half its value and dividends thercon sufficient to run the total of this item up to $100,000 Under similar circumstances the default judgment covered a half interest in 25,000 shares of stock presented to F. G.

The meeting of the board of directors of the Portland company on July 20, 1895, at the time of the purchase of the prop- erties presented by Mr. Reed, including the Tidal Wave and Devil's Own, was discussed by Mr. Smith. He called attention to the fact that Mr. Peck and Mr. Doyle were the only members of the directory that were not selling something to the company on that day, and that they were the only | ones who received any presents, each being given 25,000 Crosby sold his stock that day to the others, Burns sold the Tidal Wave and Burns and Harnan together sold the Devil's Own. The motion to buy these properties was made by Doyle and seconded by Peck and the transaction was made com- | plete by these two disinterested parties | recelving 25,000 shares each for their action. | Judge Smith left this transaction by in- | | quiring of the jury if the company would be making a present to a man who was selling as much as any other may in the | transaction, as Doyle certainly was it his t Utterback drove t g up to the police announced to the he had sald nd ded him | name of Ch big door the young man tealing an overcoat from to be given his freedom the charge on payment of the costs so far fneurred.

The contribution of $25,000 in cash to Road for his services in making the consoli- dation possible was referred to, to show that in paying his pro rata to this fund a cording to benefits derived Doyle pald « the basie of the 0 shares then receiye and Burns pald on the basis of the 230,000 shares recelvel. Then, with an assoss- ment to pay, the stock belonged to Burns all right, but now that it is a matter of dividends it belongs to Doyle. | With reference to the contention that the | stock now in controversy was held by Burns from Doyle on account of litigation Judge Smith showed that at the time of the . | original organization of the Portland every man interested got his stock on time, al- though this claim was involved in litiga- tion more than any of the others. Alleged In Extracts were read from the testimeny of Doyle in the O'Haire case to show his in- consistency and his former corroboration of Burns' present position. Seven afidavits made by Doyle directly in controvention of his present position were referred to and part of them read, some of these having been made before the commencement of the O'Halre Reference was made to the statement by one of the witnesses that Doyle spent his money like a prince, while Burns hoarded his millions like a miser. Judge Smith showed by figures that if Doyle had husbanded his resources he would have had today more than $1,000,000 from the share he got in the Portland, but in order that he might live like a prince he sacrificed his stock at 6 nts a share to get the cash. A letter written by Doyle to Burns, in which the former asked financlal ald, was referred to and it was shown that at the time that letter was written Burns had re ived in dividends on the stock now claimed by Doyle more than $83,000. The cpening remarks of Senator Patterson deplt largely with the early life of Doyle and of his relations with the Burns family prior to the removal of either from Port land, Me., to Colorado. The early trans tions in the Cripple Cry district were | ulso gone over. The idea of Doyle being an innocent youth was assalled and reference made to the time he concealed a revolver under bis leg and in the dispute with O'Halre about the ownership of a gripsack | belonging to O'Haire told him he was a lar 1 July ty treasurer.
