Dany and {te fnanctal relations with the Mt. Vernon Bank were further explained | in the West Side District Court thia| morning before Jude Mayer and a jury in the trial of President Herbert 1. | Jennings and Cashier Raymond, charged | the town is now tnundated and hasty with looting the Mt. Vernon National Bank. The resourcefulness of Jennings, accorling to the testimony of Moses Greenwood, wae something wonderfully refreshing and Wallingford-like, Willlam A. Griffin of the National Surety Corapany wag first called to the | stand this merning. He Identified the baecks for $29,000 and $4,583, “DRAW DRAFT ON ANY ONE IN| 8T.

P. Wilfley for $1,600. Q. What did you do with the draft? & Y’headea 12 over-se aay. Jennings. Assistant District-Attorney Levy then offered the protested draft on Wilfley In evidence. Strenuows objection was made | to this line of evidence by counsel Battle for the defense on the ground that this was nut a count in the Ine dictment against Jennings. “We wish to show,” said the district- attorney, “that because this dract was returned, marked ‘N. G.,' a second and a third on the same man and drawn in the same manner was not a good piece of paper to be discounted ‘vy the bank." The objection was overruied, and the " protested draft udmitted vidence, Four more of these 'N. G. 8 were admitted as grids mee f them were for awn on Frank R. Tate, bearing the dates Dec. 19, 191), Jan, 14, 1911, and Jan. %, 1911. The fourth, drawn on ifley, was dated Jan, 31, 1911. Mr. Levy said that there Were {n all twelve ‘'N. G.' drafts. STALLO AND ALEXANDER M'DONALD IN DEAL. Mr. Battle, on cross-examination, took up the affairs of the Broadway and Forty-Third Street Building Company and submitted to the witness the lease | Mrs, Fitzgerald to the com- med by Mrs. Fitzgerald and ‘Tate, the president of the R. compeny. “You know that Mr. Jennings was de- pending upon Edmund K. Stallo to as- sist him in financing the erection of the Cohan-Harris Theatre building?" ‘was | asked. | “I did," replied the witness. “You knew that Mr. Stalto’s father-in- Yaw was Alexander McDonald of the Standard O1! Company,- worth many Mifllions of dollars. who was going with | My. Stallo into this proposition?” “Te” Attorney Battle then read the agree- | ment between McDonald and. Stallo, | parties of the first Frank R.} Tate, part of the second part and the| Gray Construction Company. McDon- aid and Btallo received {0 cent. of the capital stock of the Broadway and | “ Forty-thind street company for furnish. img $100,000. The Gray Company got 4 Der cent. of the stock and $30,000 of the ¢ompany’e $600,000 bond issue. Tate re-! ceived the remaining 10 per cent. of the stock. The $100,0% with the $500,000 Yeaned by Mrs. Fitzgerald on a first mortgage was for the construction of the bulking. “The Willey and Tate mentioned here are the men on whom tho drafts initroduced this morning were drawn?" avked Mr. Battle. ‘The witness answered yes, and Mr. Battie asked him what his connection | Ov was with the Gray Company. He aid he was emptoyed at 300 a month to) Keep on the lookout for just such prop- osttions ae the erection of this ‘building, and that he had heen so employed in %. Louts by the firm. He was also to recelve one-halt the profits in the vontract for the butiding, if there were any. Afterward he assigned his agree | Rog nient to Mr. Gray. Wilfley, he’ said, was counsel and secretary of the Gray Company. New Head o ite Veterans, MACON, Ga, May 9.—Gen.
