ROBNETT ADMITS
PERJURY IN CASE

That Clarence Robnett, the star
witness in the Kettenbach, Hester,
Dwyer land fraud case, was a wit
ness for the defendants in 1909, but
that he is now testifying against
the defendants, having entered into
an agreement with the government
officials to make the present state,
ments in order to escape indict-
ment in connection with the misap-
preparation of bank funds and viola
ton of the banking laws, was the
startling statement brought out yes
terday during the trial. Under
cross examination by Attorney Tan.
nahill, Robnett admitted having per-
jured himself in his former state
ment, but declared that his present
testimony is true.
