NINE HUNDRED LETTERS
ARE TO BE IDENTIFIED
Dozen Stenographers to Testify in
the National Trust Com
pany Case.

Although Miss Mabel E. Hartley identi-
fled, yesterday afternoon, 12S, letters
which passed between the National Trust
Company while she was employed there
as a stenographer, in 1903, and the vari-
Gus applicants from seventeen states of
the Union who sought guarantees, there
remain more than $50 such communica-
tons yet to be identified, at the trial of
James N. Huston, Harvey M. Lewis and
Everett Dufour, charged with conspiracy
to use the mails to defraud.
The trial will be resumed Monday morn
ing i'm Criminal Court No. I before Justice
Wright. Adjournment was taken yester-
day until Monday
About a dozen young women employed
as stenographers by Lewis and Dufour
will be placed on the witness stand next
week. A conservative estimate Of the
time necessary to identify and mark each
of nearly 900 letters figuring in the case is
three entire sessions of the court.
An effort is being made by counsel on
both sides to reach an agreement by
means of which many of the letters may
be identified in lots and much time saved.
