IMPORTANT POINT
SCORED BY GRAY
Cashier Mckee Says Man
Who Deposited Check Not
Like Defendant.

Cashier II. H. Mckee, of the National
Capital Bank, called by the Government
as a witness in the case Of Oden 3.
Gray, on trial charged with having
forged checks upon accounts in the
Washington Loan and Trust Company,
declared positively on the witness stand
this morning that the man giving the
name of 7. T. Berry, who deposited a
check in his bank on August IS. 1905,
which correspondent In amount with
that said to have been forged with the
name of Mrs. Susan B. Sheriff, was not
Gray.
This IS regarded as a severe blow 10
the prosecution and upon cross-exami-
nation Attorney CtandaI Macley drew
from Mr.. Mckee a description of the
man Berry. Mr.. Mckee said that al
though his impression is hay. he re-
members Berry as being about forty
five years old. Of fiorid complexion,
sandy haired, and wearing a sandy mus
tache. He said the man told him ne
was a farmer and lived at Forrestvine.
Md. This description would identify a
man the antithesis Of Oden b Gray.
The cross examination developed
further that both the deposit slip and
signature card drawn by Berry were
written in the purple ink of the bank
which establishes that the depositOr
never left the building TO draw the pa
pers.
Boyd Taylor, assistant cashier of the
Washington Loan and Trust Company,
was the next witness and told OF the
search conducted for Mrs. Sheriff s
check, and the one for s., $50 drawn in
the name OF Mrs. Emily Blanchard
neither Of which could be found in the
files after the checks had been hOnored
by the Trust COMPANY

NEW YORK, June S.-when Willie
TOoker was arraigned before Magistrate
Battery Dan Finn, in Essex Market
police court, for kissing Sally Mil
berg on the lips and on Williamsburg
bridge by moonlight. the judge seemed
TO feel it was not a case that should
be dismissed lightly without due pom
dering. So he pondeTed. He fell to NUT
tering an old song to himself, III a
Body Meet a Body Coming Through the
Rye" Then he switched TO IF a body

the magistrate; there's no such word

TNEEDALE HONORED
BY PTROLLERS
District Auditor Is Made
President of National
Association.

District Auditor AIonzo Tweedale re-
turned to Washington this morning
from the annual convention of the Ma
tiona1 Association of Accounting Of
ficers and Comptrollers, in Detroit
wearing the ineffacable smile and the
insignia of president of the accounting
officers organization.
After receiving the congratulations
or his friends, the District Commits
slOners and his subordinates and set
ting far enough down in the light
some atmosphere to permit him to re-
main stable in his chair, Mr.. TWeedale
opened his grip and drew forth numer-
Gus documents to prove his statements
and then proceeded to explain what he
and his associates have been doing in
Detroit during the past few days.
Uniform Budget.
The adoption of a uniform budget for
municipalities throughout the country,
a plan suggested by the Census Bureau
and indorsed by students of municipal
government throu ghout the country, oc-
cupied the attention OF the convention
during the better part Of it's sessions.
This plan contemplates the systematic
ing of the work of preparing municipal
appropriations under eleven general
heads. It's adoption would result in the
simplinCatiOu of accounting and would
also serve as a safeguard against fraud.
With the accounts Of all the NUM-
cipalities of the country arranged under
the same headings and kept in the
same manner 1t would be easy 10 make
comparative study of variations of cost
and would also enable the executive
officers to know to -Lhe Tenny the exact
state of their accounts a. a glance.
Want System Here.
For several years past the Commits
sioners of the District have been urg-
ing upon Congress the advisability OF
adopting this system in the preparation
of the District appropriation bills. So
far these efforts have been unsuccess-
full. as Congress has felt that the old
system should be adhered to. so that
comparisons could he made with pre-
Vious appropriations. The efforts to Sc
cure the adoption of the scientific
budget will be renewed at the next ses-
sion of Congress, however, and with the
Endorsement of the accounting officers
organization and the support of the
Federal Government accountants it is
believed that the system will be adopted
Both Commissioners Macfarland and
West expressed themselves as highly
pleased at the selection of Mr. Twedale
as the head of the national association.
Both Of these District officials are
anxious to see the new system Of budget
adopted in the District. and both have
urged the matter on Congress.

All are New Workers, and the last

runner-up.
No such quartet of stars has met in
the semi-finals of a tournament this
season., nor were the our ever punched
before at that stage of the premier
set. Fine weather is predicted for
today, and the struggle should prove
of great interest.

the possibility of arranging further in
tersectional games for next year. II
Dartmouth does not play Princeton,
the former team nay meet Minnesota
in a game which football men say
would be one of the most notable OF
the season. Michigan and Pennsylva-
mia will probably meet again, and it is
said that Chicago Is anxious to get
another Eastesn game, in addition to
the one with Cornell. 1t is hoped that
either Annapolis or West Point may
be induced to put the Chicagoans on
their schedule.

Demarest and Cassignol went 20 in

bristling unfinished run of 102, winning
by 500 to 474.
Demarest did little notably brilliant
playing until the game was nearly over.
In his twenty-ffth he let himself out
for a thrilling 20, and four innings
later, through a lucky kiss, he got a
carom after he had missed his second

BUTTS WILL PLAY.

The -pos.ponement OF the East Orange
Newark High football game, which was
scheduled to have beer played on
Thanksgiving Day, was not without its
good results from an East Orange
standpoint. Had the game been played
on Thursday the suburban team would
have been compelled to take the field
without the services of the star quar-
terback, Eddie Butts, who was laid up
with a strained ankle. Since then Butts
has improved. When the team lines up
next Saturday Butts will be seen in his
regular position. 1t is needless to say
that his absence would have greatly en-
dangered the chances of Captain Whit
mans team to win the game. Coach
Grossenbaugh is putting his team
through a daily practise and will con-
tinue to do SO throughout the coming
week. He is paying especial attention
to the line.
