Important Evidence introduced In the
Pearl Bryan Case Yesterday.
NEWPORT, Ky, June 10 The prose-
cution In the Walling trial concluded
Its testimony in rebussal at noon, hnv-
Ing brought out the most startling
feature OF the trial. The defense had
introduced Heider's Hotel register,
showing Wall!ng's name November 7,
marked paid.
The prosecution proved by He!der
that after Walling was In Jail, Attorney
Sheppard got the register and kept is Q
day or two. Detective Grim and Nc
Dermott testified that when Jackson
and Wslling were arrested they exam-
ined the book carefully and found that
Walling's name was not on II.
Heider testified that the name paid
WAS not In his handwriting nor in that
OF any OF his clerks. The testimony of
both Heider and his clerks was that on
the night Of January 81. which was the
on'y night Walling ever slept in the
hotel, he rushed in, paid his bill and
hurried to his room without registering.

Favor Silver.


New York. June 1.-The opinion Is
gaining ground In Wall street that some
ot the leading banks and trust companies
intend 10 strike another blow for SOUND
money by making an example OF such
states aA have caught the silver craze
when they want TO borrow money
A case In point was the application OF
the state OF Alabama 20 New York
trust company for loans on ilH warrants.
The directors OF the trust company. after
a long discussion about the matter. voted
against granting the loan. senators
Morgan and Pugh. OF that state. have
exhibited a strong leaning toward silver
IN their speeches
II In considered probable that the Re-
publican delegates from that state will
favor silver az the ST. Louis convention.
While II ir not known that there Is any
unanimlty OF feeling among bankers In
regard 10 loaning money to states in IA
vor OF free silver. II is believed In Wall
street that the announcement that such
a thing might happen II the bankers
thought Il necessary 10 take united ac-
ton would have wholesome effect on
voters. II not on politicians. when they
understand that they run the risk OF im-
pairing the borrowing power OF their
state.
The directors OF the trust company In
question declared that they were not
actuated by sentiment but that II was
purely a business transaction, and they
deemed II best TO refuse the loan.
