I don't know; I couldn't say. Q. Did you ever borrow money from B. ‘Olarence Jones? Mann's face turnedired. “I don't want to answer," he sald to the Judgo, in a whisper. The Judge repeated the state- ment aloud. Qgoorne shouted: “I insist on an answer!"" “T borrowed $10,000 from Jones,” sald Mann after a long pause. Q. On what security? A. Shares of the Ajwer Lumber Company. Q. When was that? A. Last spring. Q. Have you repaid the loan? A. No, Mbave not. { Lawson a Subscriber. Q Was Irving employed by you as,a canvasser for “Fads and Fancies'? A. He was hited by one of the other so- Xeltors. I knew him. Q. Did you permit him to get sub- feribers for “Fads and Fancles" from Persons. whpse names had not been approved by you? A.I did not. Q. Didn't Wooster get a subscription from Thomas W. Lawson without eub- @mitting Lawson's name to you? A. He got @ subscription from Lawson without my approval. .Q. Did you return the check to. Mr. Lawson? A. I did not. Q. Did you allow Irving or Wooster to solicit subscriptions from those not on your list. A. No, Q. Did you tell them to get eligibles on their own hoo? A. Never. Mr. Osborne eubmitted a letter from Mann to Irving dated July 7, 1902, telling him to gather in all the eligibles then at Newport and induce them to sub- scrfoe to Fads and Fancies, and a letter telling Wooster to use his genius in| securing subscriptions and to get all the eligibles he could whether they ap- peared on Mann's list or not. This let- ter was dated June 2%, 1901. Both let- ‘ters Mann admitted were in his hand- You first called {t Fads ani Fancies ‘the Four Hundred? A. Yes. Q. When did you change its name to Weds and Fancles of representative Americans? A. Same months later. Q. Didn't you find the list of victims go\emall among the Four Huntired that yu had to change the title? A. No, that is not true. BQ. Osborne brought out Laweon’s @omtract with Fuds and Fancies, and ever Mr. Jerome's objection tt was ad- mitted as evidence. Lawson subscribed ‘on condition that the book was not to fe called “Faijs and Fancies of the Four Hundred."* It was also expressly stipulated in this contract that it should be made payable to Mann and not to Town Topics, as had been the custom. These were made in red ink. Q. Was not the name of your book changed immediately after Mr. Law- gon'’s contract reached you? A. I don't wecall. “Did Business Straight.” @ read Col. Mann's now to Wooster telling how ‘Thea famous lett certain rich men were to be pounoed| * om and “captured.” It showed that ‘Mann hoped to get one man to subscribe by keeping from him the knowledge ‘that another man had subscribed. ‘This fact being brougtit ot Osborne put this question “Dil you regard such a subterfuge as @,moral course of conduot?’ “That's irrelevant,” sahi Jerarme,” but Osborne repeated the question and Mann repliéd in an impressive manner. “Town Topics did business absolutely traight,"* ‘Balliffs checked the laughter and the inquisiton went on. * Q. How much did you realize from A. About $150,000, thre Wednesday.
