Carnegie Trust Promoter Can't
Remember Details of This
Trihing Incident.

William ]. Cummins. the Carnegie
Trust promoter, showed the effects OF
the three days cross-examinatlon he
a withstood when ne resumed the
stand to-day In his defense In the
Supreme Court, where he is on trial
before Justice Davis, charged with the
theft OF $4,000 from the Nineteenth
Ward Bank on April %, 1910.
Assistant District = Attorney Moss
questioned Cummins about the affairs
of the Plat Iron Works Company,
asking how much the concern owed
April %. 1910. The witness answered:
1T owed the Carnegie Trust Com
pany about 100000: 1t had two notes
OF $4,000 or $4,000 in the Var Norden
Trust Company. and owed about $4,000
to a Cincinnati bank. which was the
balance on notes OF 100000 which were
there when we bought the works"

works needed money TO meet its Jay
roll. did 1t not?" asked Mr.. Moss.

I advanced almostSs1. 100000 to the iron
works." answered Cummins.

rupted Mr.. Moss. "If you keep on talk
ing that way I will nave to ask you
where you got that million. and this
trial will never be finished"

victed Of wrecking the Northern Bank,

to-day Cummins testified that a note OF,
=. +. O'Neil for $3.50 0 had been pur.
chased by the Northern Bank June IL
This note, according to Cummins. was
used to raise money for the general
situation"
ION that date asked Mr.. Moss. "did
the Carnegie Trust Company accom-
modate Mr.. Robin with a loan?"
Cummins could not recall until the
record OF the bank for that date wa'
! shown. Then he admitted that Robir
had got a loan of $4,000 on the same
day as the Northern Bank purchased
the O'Neil note.
