TRIAL FOR FORGERY
LUDLUM g. BASSETT HAS HIS DAY
IN COURT.
ACCUSED OF CHECK MAKING,
Passed the Check on Grace McGinniss
One Evening-Got $40 Worth
Of Entertainment and $3.50
in Coin.

Judge McClernans department of the
district court was occupied today with
the trial of Ludlum G. Basse.tt, who
was charged with forgery. Bassett was
accused of forging the name OF Wallace
Bruce MCGregOr to check which he
passed on Grace McGinnis, woman OF
the underworld, securing by means of
it about $50 worth of wines, liquors and
cigars. The check was for $50.
The witnesses consisted of the woman
complainant; Bassett; the cashier of the
State Savings bank, Frank Holmes;
Miss Gussie Walton and j. G. Pierce ol
Missou.a. Pierce and the defendant
We're the only witnesses for the defense.
Deputy County Attorney Yancy said
in his opening statement that the state
would shCw that Bassett came from
Idaho in May, selling mining slaale,,
and that he went to Grace Mcninnis'
place on the night of the 23rd of May
There he borrowed $3.50 and was
served with liquors and cigars by the
complainant, and gave her the check
mentioned in payment for the same.
The check was signed on the back as
by Bassett and McGregor, and the next
day it was presented at the State Saw
ings bank by the woman, who was told
that there was no money on deposit
there in the names of those men.
Miss McGinnis went on the stand and
told how Bassett gave her the check.
saying that she was out 500 on the deal.
She said that Bassett borrowed 81 20
pay the hackman who brought him to
the house.
She admitted on cross-examina on
that Bassetlt told her the next morning
when he was sober, that there was no
money in the bank. but that his partner
would put some there to meet the check.
The defendant said that he belonged
to the stock selling firm of Bassett &
McGregor, and that he had the right to
sign the firm name. 1t was alleged by
the state that he forged McGregor's
name, and this was the defense set up
in reply to the charge. Bassett did not
know where McGregor is, and said that
the firm had been disso> ed after his
arrest.
The case went to the jury at 8 o'c.ock
this afternoon, after argument by
Messrs. Yancy and Breen for the state
and Attorney Kirk for the defendant
the latter lawyer being assisted in the
defense of Basse,t 10y Attorney Dierks.
