sent two or three days after receiving
| the twelve ounces of silver delivered
to CotSobelos. Latter paid him for MS
trouble

NEY.
Bernard said II seemed Marshall was
now again assuming the relation OF at
torney to client, and tina anything
which occurred after that time was
| privilege matter.
Marshall said he did not write letters
as attorney, but merely because Cot
SobeloS said he could not read English
that he made CotSobelos deposit money
TO cover expenses, and his he retained.
Marshall said COtSObelos told him what
articles he wanted, and called them Off
from price list he had. Marshal check

this would cover purchases. He re-
ceived a letter in reply to order. dated
| November 10th.
, Bethany said where is your reply to
this letter of the 10th. That has been
suppressed, said Marshall:
Bernard said he seriously objected
to this answer, that there should not
nave been n question Or answer aB
TO the letter asserted to be missing.
7 Marshall said there was one letter
on file which was not in his hand
writing.
Argo said It was apparent from pa
pers read that another letter was writ
ten between November 7th and No
yember 18th, not on file; that a letter
in reply to one of November 10Th had
evidently been written.
The Judge aid Marshall could say
: whittier he wrote a letter between No
vember 10th and 17th without saying
what was in it. Marshall then said
he did not write such letter between
those dates; thai CotSobelos for whom
it was written, was shown this letter.
j Cotsobelos said he wanted the materi-
ais for REPEATING, and that this applied
toall orders sent.
Bernard said Marshall had said this
morning that materials Wer2 for plat
ing spoons.
. Bethany said what Marshall said this
morning applied only to the first order.
Marshall said he did not go to Politz
and look at the melting steve there.
Did not go to Wilmington Iron Work
and order melting stove. Wen there
to see about some work en- buildings
he was erecting. Politz happened to
be in store at that time; had no con-
Germ or interest in melting stove. Po-
iitz bought it; did not know what he
was purchasing. Marshall contradict
ed DarkleyS Statements, that latter one
might saw Marshall in Politz room with
CotoSbeloS making counterfeit money.
that he never was in Politics room in
his life, or anywhere in proximity to IT.;
said it was false that he introduced

on first trial; thaG POlitZ statement
that Marshall told him he had employ

lftz gave an order On the store for
$3.50. He went Ito tine store with Mars

ry in charge. Perry would not permit

Marshall had a memorandum of all
these things. He went back later with
John d, Bellamy, with the safe combi-
nation given by Politz, and got the
money out of the safe. The memoran-
dunn was ordered filed.
Marshall denied that Darkley or Po-
litz ever brought a bundle or box to his
office. Marshall explained the memo

was made out by his wife; that Politz
owed him money, and the memoran-
dunn was for goods at his store and
showed how much had been bought on

with the order of Druids; had gone to
the jail two or three times. CPolitz
said Marshall went there daily.
Marshall said he went to Jail as at

had persuaded POLITE to allow Costobe-
los TO put certain boxes in the rear
part of his store; that he had never
heard of these boxes until the detec-
tive found them: that after Politz's
arrest the latter wanted Marshall to
see Darkley and find out what he
knew. Politz wrote a letter to Dark
ley in Greek and in il asked Darkley
not to say anything against him, be-
cause they had had trouble. Darkley
said because he had had trouble with
Politz he would not tell falsehood on
