EGAN CASE Goes
To JURY; VERDICT
MAY COME TO-DAY
Collector Admits Lending Money,
but Thought tie Had
Right.
CASH IS BELIEVED TO
HAVE PURCHASED CHURCH
Indictment Found by ElisOr-
drawn Jury Is Questioned
by Defense.

JERSEY CITY, Dec. 15.-The fate OF
County Collector Stephen M. gan
who has been on trial before supreme
court Justice Francis ]. Swayze on the
charge of having lent county 10
the late Robert Davis, is in the hands
If the Jury. Prosecutor Garvin ana
former Governor Fort summed up TO-
day. The actual taking of testimony
was terminated yesterday.
The specific charge against MT bgah
ia that on August a. 1909, he lent
s21 300 of the county funds to he er-
sey City Supply Company, OF wnich
Robert Davis was the nominal neao'
in two warrants, one for $4,000 ana the
other for 81, 800. Mr.. Davis's eldest
son, Robert Davis, jr., obtained the
warrants for Mr.. Egan, giving him a
demand note.
This money was used, ii is said, IN
the purchase of the Parmly Memorial
Baptist Church property on Grove
street, Jersey City.
Mr.. Egan was called as a witness in
his defense late yesterday afternoons
was in the witness chair probably hall
an hour. He admitted everything that
was charged against him. saying that
he had peer led to believe that he was
supreme in the matter of handling the
funds Of the county and that he
wouldn't have lent any money II he
believed he was doing anything crimf-
nal.
Parole Is Sought.
When the case was called former
Governor Fort and Counselor Jul
Illus Lichtenstein, who is asso-
ciated with the former Governor In
the defense, surrendered Mr.. Eean.
Immediately Prosecutor Garven asked
that Mr.. Egan be paroled on his W
recognizance Mr.. Fort took the view
that this was taking an unfair adyan-
tage, as If MI. Egan was not in duress
there would be 10 condition under
which to apply for a writ of habeas
corpus. Justice Swayze finally ordered
Mr.. Egan committed to the Hudson
County jail, saying, This is an actual
commitment"
Counsel for Mr.. Egan then went be-
fore Vice-Chancellor Garrison, who was
waiting on the fourth DOR of the
Court House. The vice-chancellor
signed a writ. making it returnable
forthwith. Then Prosecutor Garve
was sent for. The application set forth
that Mr.. Egan was deprived of his
liberty on an Illegally found indictment.
Nice-Chancellor Garrison decided
that as the cour Of oyer and Terminer
was waiting to try Indictment No. 16,
for %loaning the $31, 500, he would not
grant a habeas corpus on that, as the
Court of Oyer and Terminer could de-
termlne all the issues and hat In any
event the writ of habeas corpus was
intended for use where a prisoner had
no other opportunity to make a proper
argument against duress. A rule to
show cause was issued on the other
I. twenty-one indictments, and this will
lie decided later.
The lawyers then went downstairs
