KEENE PROVES POOR
WITNESS
Wall Street Man'S Explanation
Of Collapsed Columbus and
Hooking Pool Fails to Explain
How it Happened,

tBy Morning J0nrnal e1secSsi Isnsed Wirel
New York, Feb. tl,--lhere were
intimaUons OF bad faith among MEM
hers OF the pool. regrets concerning
moment Of weakness in which
profits of S260.000 were overlooked
and many courtesies but little jnfor-
nation from James Il. kcene today
when he took the stand again to ex-
plain his management of the cola ps-
ed Columbus ana Hooking pool. Mr.
keenc's books proved too blind FOR
counsel tor the receiver and too blind
for him. There were entries showing
purchases and sales but nothing TO
show for whose account, nor could
Mr.. kcene remember. Attempts We're
made to get Mr. Keene to admit that
he had sold the pool out Entrics
scemd 70 show that there were 800
shares short ia the pool on the day
on which il collapsed. but 1t could not
be proved by the books.
Mir. Keenc reiterated his conviction
that the second pool ought never 90
have been formed, and that, even af-
ter II had been formed, he could have
sold II uut at sixty with a profit Of
$3.50, 600 Tor the mem bers but they
wanted more stock, he said, "and did
rot seem ia care what they paid fot
il.
His better Judgment was overridden
and that he added. was a moment OF
weakness. The contradiction be-
tween this statement and his subse-
quent assertion that the stock would
have gone par. ''if everybody had
kept faith was not explained
lie received no compensation for
his services, he said, other than what
he made in the pool in common with
