Have you ever had any trouble with

for the plaintiff
mo, only I know he has been indicted
twice"
Il object" howlcd the lawyer for the
defence, and in an instant the court was in
an uproar. The lawyers on both sides we're
talking, and several Of the witnesses joined
in The witness, however, managed to
get In the statement that MoNutt's picture
was in the rogies gallery. Il know II is
there" he said. because ! saw and had II
in my own hands,
McNutt was white with rage. As the
witness PASSED him on his way from the
stand he glarcd at him and his lips were
seen to move.
"Your Honor!" shouted Coppell Il de-
mand the rrc lection Of the Court. This
witness pointing at McNuttl has threatened
me and called me names.
The lawyers were making such a din
that tho Court did not ray any attention
to Coprell's request. To n reporter Cop
pel said that McNutt had called him vile
name and threatened to fix" him when
the session was over. There were, however,
no hostilities when the persons interested
left the building.
Sahater swore that O'Gorman had hired
him in February to look after his personal
interests in the agency. He said that he
had had the concern Incorporated, but as
taT as ne knew not IL slTlSlt slldTe vi sloCh
had ever been issued. The office was at
l4O Nassau street, in room adjoining that
in which the Elmore mining scheme was
doomed He said that O'Gorman had
put up all the money for the agency and
that he looked to him for his pay. He had
also had the Bronr Herald Incorporated
for the Coroner.
O'Gorman swore that Sabater was an
employee and later an officer of the Beck
man Advertising Agency. He said the con-
Germ had been Incorporated and that 1t had
a board of directors. He also swore that
stock had been issued and that he was the
possessor of ten shares. McNutt also had
ten shares.
McNutt also testified that Sabater had
been employed by the agency, He said
that the plaintiff had mutilated some of
the'books of the concern and carried others
away when he left.
Decision was reserved.
O'Gorman, who is now running on the
Hearst ticket for Coroner in The Bronx,
was secretary of the Elmore Mines Consoli-
dated and McNutt was the promoter.
Prior to that McNutt had been busy selling
neither of which schemes was looked upon
with any great favor in the financial dis
trict.
The Beekman Advertising Agency was
apparently organized for the purpose OF
try to take stock in the Elmore company
in return for advertising space. Circu-
lar letters were sent out. but only few
newspapers accepted the offer made. One
of them was the Rronr Herald, which O'Gor-
man was supposed to have established for
the sole purpose of fighting Louis H. Hafien
for the Tammany leadership in The Bronx.
McNutt was president OF the OkoboJo,
secretary and treasurer of the OkoboJo
Land and Cattle Company and secretary
and treasurer of the Central Idaho Gold
Mining Company, whose prospectus was
almost identical with that of the Okoboio
Mining Company, with the same descrip-
ton Of the mines and the same maps and
views, though with II difference in the per-
sonnel of the directors. McNutt's name did
not appear in the prospectus OF the Elmore
Mines Consolidated.
He was arrested in November, 1902, on
the charge of swindling William, !. Block OF
Chicago out of 5000 in the sale of stock
Of the Central Idaho Gold Mining Company,
and in January of this year was indicted, ,
together with A. w. Jones and John w.
Miller, for working similar game on John
W. Whyatt, Lenox avenue saloon keeper.
McNutt was released on bail on the latter
charge. He is now promoting the National
Non-Explosive Tank Company, with capi-
tai stock of s350,OOO.
AT a test of one of the tanks in The Bronx
last summer he and O'Gorman were pic
tured standing side by side. This picture
is now used on the literature the company
is sending out. The company has advsr-
tised literally in the Bronr Herald. .-a n
