THE WARRUM CASE AGAIN
ATTORNEYS ARGUE A MOTION FOR A
NEW TRIAL.
A New Point Brought Out that Sur
prfsed Judge Baker and
the Lawyers.

The famous Warrum case in the Federal
Court, which has presented several inter-
esting phases during it's two trials. took
another turn yesterday in the argument on
the motion for new trial. The argument
was not concluded when court adjourned
last night and will be resumed tomorrow
morning at o'clock. but from remarks
dropped by Judge Baker during the day
and just prior to the adjournment 1t seems
likely that the case will be tried a third
time.
Mrs Crider secured a judgment for about
$4,000 I'm the first trial. and this was re-
duced by about one-half in the second. The
lengthy argument of the attorneys yes
terday seemed destined to produce no re-
suits out Of the ordinary until the lawyers
for the estate presented an entirely novel
issue growing out of the alleged demand
made by Warrum upon Mrs. Crider for the
return to him of a certain paper before
he would execute the note upon which suit
was brought and Judgment twice recov-
cred. 1t developed in the argument that
the attorneys for neither side had paid
much attention TO this phase Of the case
during the trials which have been held.
The only reference to this paper that has
ever been made was made by Mrs. Crider
when she was on the witness stand in the
last trial. She spoke OF Mr.. Warrum ask
ing her to give him certain paper, and
In answer to a question said she believed 1t
was partnership agreement. Mr.. Winter,
one of the attorneys for the Warrum
estate, said that at the time Mrs. Crider
made this allusion to the paper he was so
preoccupied that he did not notice it par
ticularly. The lawyers for Mrs. Crider said
they, too, allowed the matter to escape
them unwittingly.
II cannot conceive" said Judge Baker,
"how such an important item of evidence
should have escaped the court. If l had
noticed the allusion to the paper-the sup
posed partnership agreement-I should GER
tainly have seen to 1t that counsel probed
more deeply into the matter"
Mr.. Winter and his associate, Mr.. Henry
Warrum, sought to show that the deceased
Mr.. Warrum wanted to get hold of the al
legged partnership agreement in order TO
suppress ii and thus defeat an action that
was then pending against him to recover
money from him on the ground that he was
partner in a certain business. The
springing of this point created a genuine
sensation, and Judge Bakers decision on
the point is awaited with the keenest in
terest. The law seems to be that If Mr..
Warrum procured the supposed partner
ship agreement in order to suppress piece
of evidence and Mrs. Order had knowl-
edge of such an intention his part the
note which she holds is tainted by that
fact in other words, the note was exc
cuted for insufficient or bad consideration
and is therefore worthless.
