Judge Houeh's Remarks.

AT present, the evidence as it stands
the active participation which is alleged in
the lettered counts, on the part of the de-
fendant. and the manner and method OF
the conversion there set forth. has not
been proved in such a manner as to permit
the other allegations prior to January, 1907.
to be adduced. OF course. the testimony OF
yesterday and this morning is relevant and
material to all the counts of the 1908 indict-
ment. I will not at this time permit the
introduction of the origin of dividends back
of the period when the defendant became
president Of the Mercantile National Bank"
The 1908 indictment includes the misap
plication counts especially and the re-
marks of the court were gratifying to the
prosecution, in way. but in saying that
the testimony was relevant and material
the counsel felt that the court might not
mean that the misapplication had been
substantially established. 1t was clear or
not, according to whether counsel was for
against the prosecution, that the over
Certification counts, the lettered charges in
the Indictment found a few months ago,
had been proved to the satisfaction of the
court
