NYE Will TAKE
WITNESS STAND
Senators Dore and Dean Called
By Defense.
CRAWFORD BITTERLY ASSh|LEO

Prominent Politicians From Southern
Ohio Counties Testify That State
Printer is Somewhat Shy on verac-
ity - Cross-Examination However,
Reveals Fact That They Have Been
on Outs With the States Witness
For Years.
Columbus, O., May 26.-The state
rested its case in the trial of Repre-
sentative George B. Nye, charged
with soliciting bribe, after it had
examined FIVE of it's ~ witnesses,
and the defense introduced a mum.
Der of witnesses from Pike and
Brown counties, each of whom testi.
fed that State Printer e. A. Graz
ford, principal witness for the state.
had poor reputation along the
veracity line and that they would not
believe him under oath. The state
in its cross-examination succeeded in
weakening their testimony by secur.
ing admissions from these character
witnesses that they were close polit.
ical friends and allies of Nye and po-
litical enemies of Crawford.
T. C. Coyle Of Spencerville, o.. for.
mer senate bill clerk, was a witness
for the state. The witness had known
Nye since 1906. He had been work
ing against the bill introduced by
Representative Gebhart to turn the
control of the canals over 10 the
chief engineer of the state board ol
public works. Coyle said he had g
conversation with Nye at the corner
of Broad and High on Friday morn
ing, April 28.
Talked About the Bill.
1--WE talked about the bill asked
him if l could approach Representa-
tive Day of Ross" said Coyle.
"What do you mean. by money!
the witness said Nye asked him. 81
you do we can kill the bill'
mo, don't mean anything like
that" the witness answered.
On cross-examination Coyle said h,
had never been approached by Ny,
for money.
Representative Kimble of Adams
county, who introduced the gerry
mander bill, took the stand followin!
| Coyle. He stated that upon day
the exact date of which he could no
| remember, Nye had come over to hi
seat in the house and told him tina
| he was against the Adams county bill
unless Pike county was included HI
stated that his people would raist
some money if Kimble's people woul'
raise $1,000. Kimble stated that HI
told Nye tl.at he didn't know wha
good money would do, but Nye SAT-
it might secure the influence of SOM
outside parties. He was very indef
mite in his statements and said tina
he did not want to be quoted as max
ing any of the statements on th'
stand positively ~
The defense issued subpenas 70
Senators Dore and Dean and Davi
r. Rockwell, superintendent of tn
building and loan department.
DR.. Nye will take the stand in hi
own behalf and deny there were an
improper motives in his converse
tions with Coyle or Kimbre.
