Attorney Clarke about this matter, but
that no indictments had followed
Mitchell May explained that South
worth had been called as witness be-
fore the grand Jury in the endeavor 10
obtain the indictment Of his superiors.
His testifyine gave him immunity.
while the most he would say was that
he believed Sullivan gave the orders for
the false entries. This testimony was
uncorroborated. and was not sufficient
grounds on which to base an indictment,
Mr.. Nav said.
Mr.. Cheney also testified about one

department.
An Ashford Company Transaction.
The particular transaction that inter
ested Goldstein was loan of S2Ooo
made to Mrs Mas by the Ashford Com

examination showed the Ashford Com

and then made its own note to the Me-
chanics and Traders Bank for similar
amount. The money received from the
bank was paid over to Mrs. Mas, less
the bonus.
Mrs. MASS note 10 the Ashford Com
pany was then discounted by the bank
and the money. according to Mr. Cheney.

Ivan discounted at the bank. He said
that he afterward paid back the loan.
Another part of the testimony Of Hayes

Of the Jenkins Trust Company, for a
