TRUST COMPANY HEAD
ON THE WITNESS STAND
Daniel Leroy Dresser Continues
His Testimony

SARATOGA, N. Y, June 2S.-Daniel
Leroy Dresser, former president of the
Trust Company of the Republic. con-
tinued his testimony as a witness in the
case of Charles H. Cavenaugh against
the former directors of the company to
compel the restoration of moneys al
legged to have been lost through fnanc-
ing the United States ship building
company.
The loans on the ship building Sc
curities, the witness said, were rep
resented in the customary way to the
executive committee Questioned as to
a loan of 100000 made July "a. 1902,
by the trust company to the witness,
which was paid in October following.
Dresser said there was no suggestion
that such loan was illegal. The loan
was used, however, by the board Of
directors, he said
AT the time it became necessary to
pay over about $4,000, 900 for the con-
stituent companies of the ship building

WOODILL MURDER
CLOSED INCIDENT
COrOner's Jury Returns Com
promise Verdict Accusing
Eastman of Crime

ST. MICHAELS, Nd, June 2S.-With
the compromise verdict of the coro-
ner's jury that Robert E. Eastman
either killed or was accessory to the
murder of Edith May Woodill and the
declaration of states Attorney Taylor
that he was through with the case, the
strange dual tragedy became closed
incident today.
Four of the IL jurors refused to sign
the verdict The words ''or accessory
to the crime were added to the draft
which, approved by the majority, blunt
ly accused Eastman of the murder. The
four dissenting jurymen merely wished
to protest, they said, against the man.
ner in which the inquiry was conducted,
declaring much available evidence was
not adduced. The letter left by East
man for his wife in which he said that
Mrs Woodill had been killed by a
woman in a jealous frenzy. was not
read.
The jury sat for a time today in the
bungalow itself with Eastman's un-
marked grave not so feet away. Mrs.
Eastman had visited the place earlier
in the day and had stood dry eyed for
time beside the new made mound.
Three witnesses gave interesting tes-
timony before the coroner,s jury, but
developed nothing to change materially
the complexion of the strange case.
William Sutton, who went to the
shack to ask Eastman to attend re-
ligious meeting, definitely fixed the
time of his visit as Sunday afternoon
between and o'clock. This also
definitely fixes the time of the murder
as occurring on Sunday night Sut-
ton swore positively that he heard
Mrs. Woodill's voice. There was moth
ing to indicate that she and Eastman
were or had been engaged in quarrel.
From the testimony, the authorities
have formed this final theory:
That Eastman was in need of money:
that he probably had been getting
money from Mrs Woodills for some
time; that he undoubtedly knew some
thing of her past life and that he had
been blackmailing her: that he at
tempted to continue this practice and
that the woman rebeIled, intimating
that she, too, had found out certain
things about Eastman and that if driv-
en- to 1t she would expose him.
Eastman's dread of serving a term
in the penttentiary is well known His
wife has said that he told her he would
rather commit suicide than be locked
up.
AS to why Mrs. Woodill went to the
bungalow there was no evidence.
The compromise verdict declared that
on Sunday. June 20, in his bungalow on
Broad creek, Robert E. Eastman fe-
loniously killed or was accessory to
the crime of numbering Edith May
Thompson Woodill wife of Gilbert
Woodill of Los Angeles, Cal.''

TO have capped wild champagne ca
rouse the wealthy eattleman would
have the court declare null and void.
Dunphy asserts in his complaint that
he was so drunk he did not know
what he was doing.
This is not the first time this man
of the bizarre matrimonial career has
asked the court to relieve him OF the
consequences of his dissipation. There
are among the records of the superior

Dunphy pleaded unlimited indulgence.

judgments against him for money
should be set aside.

The marriage with 'Dodie7 took
place at Redwood CiSy June %. He
had no comprehension of what he was
doing, or of the nature of the cere-

the marriage ceremony and until June

the purport of the marriage ceremony.
He Immediately left his wife and the
same day his attorneys, j. H. Mere

complaint.
Dunphy's marriage to the Valencia
woman was the most surprising event
in his mottled list of experiences A

he had recently secured an annulment

acquaintances.
