pany taking OF testimony was virtually
completed yesterday and the issue Is ex-
pected to reach the jury before noon to-
day.
Former United States Senator Thomas
kearnS was on the stand all OF the
morning session and part OF the after
noon.
Resuming his direct testimony when
court opened at the morning session,
Senator Kearns said that the first time
Mr.. Sefrit had made a demand for more
salary was in November. 1910. after he
had notified the senator that he intended
TO resign Senator Keams then told OF
the conversation he had with Mr.. Sefrft
In the formers office in which he had
told Sefrit that he had been paid in fun
for his services. as the stipulated salary
covered all OF his reasonable office hours.
He admitted that hot words had passed
between them and explained that Mr..
Sefrit had come back the next day and
made an apology
The witness denied positively that he
had requested Mr.. Sefrit to advocate the
race game in Salt Lake and denied that
he had loaned John Condron. one Of the
race meet promoters. any money. He
explained that he had loaned b. b. Hey

prietor OF the Cullen hotel. $1,000, and
that Condron. having succeeded Haywood

Mr.. Sefrit had confessed personal ami
mostly between himself and Condron and
wanted to open up a fight on the race
meet, which he would not permit: telling
him to be conservative. After this. he
said, Mr.. Sefrit was somewhat lax IN
the performance OF his duties.
On cross-eXamination Senator kearns
said that he knew nothing at any time
of Condron's interest in the race meet
as he had never talked with him about
the matter or attended any of the races.
Reverting TO the question of the en-
ploynent Of Mr.. Sefrit. Senator Kearns
said that Mr. SefrIt had himself fixed
the salary that he was TO receive and
had hcen told that he was expected to
devote all of his time 10 his work The
mining stock given to Mr.. Sefrit had
been only a gift. not intended IN any
sense as portion OF his salary. Mr.,
Sefrt had been given $500 by Mr.. Keith
aud Mr.. Kearns when he went away on
his vacation TO the Hawaiian islands.
Senator kearns denied In positive
terms that he had ever asked. Mr.. Scfrit

a paper
Frank j. wcstcott a director Of the
