AT 3:i5 this afternoon the prose-

Gilbert and Bert Teachout, and ar
guments will be made by the attor-
neys tomorrow morning. The defense
placed no evidence before the jury,
but made several motions designed
to release the defendants without
placing the case In the hands of the
jury.
There We're several of these mo-
tions, all covering important phases
of the legal questions involved. but
all We're overruled.

the defendants. s---.-----..- .-l..-
A strong case was made against
Gilbert and Teachout; but the cross
examination to which the people s
witnesses were subjected was fierce
ly grilling.
The fact that no testimony was
introduced by the defense was a sur
prise. No opening statement was
made by the defense when the trial
began, and Attorney Welsh will rely
upon the uncompleteness of the pros
ecution's case for an acquittal.

FORMER LOCAL
MAN TO TELL
COMM|TTEE0F
THE NISS|VES
Hearst Tells Clapp HAT He Did
Not Know Just Where Eddy
Got the Copies.
He PAID NOTHING FOR THEM

John l.. Eddy, one time Grand VAL
ley fruit grower, tnOw head of the
European bureau OF the Hearst news
paper syndicate and personal repre-
sentative of William Randolph
Hearst in London, was the man who
furnished his employer with the
series of Standard oil letters which
figured 50 prominently in the pre-
election campaign and which upset
the composure of numerous money
kings, when Reproductions of the
missives were republished in Hearst's
magazine. This information came
today in an Associated Press dis
patch which is printed below.
Mr.. Eddy was for many years as
sociated with the Hearst newspapers,
and until a few years ago was man
aging editor of the Boston American.
While a magazine writer on the staff
of the international News Service the
letters were procured and the arti-
cles written by Mr.. Eddy A few
years ago Ill health and desire for
c--tdcnr life cauS ets Ar. EDDY to rErs
chase and reside upon Il ranch in
Grand valley. He still owns the
property in Pomona. While here he
was very active in all public under
taking and was especially prominent
in the chamber of commerce move
ment to reduce freight rates. He left
some s months ago to accept the
position of general European corre-
spondent with headquarters in Lon
don. The place carries with IL a
general supervision of all the news
coming out of Europe to the eight or
10 Hearst newspapers in the United
States.
In all probability Mr.. Eddy will be
called before the Clapp investigating
committee to tell where he secured
the letters and how they were taken
from the Standard Oil files.

letters, today gave to the senate cam

copies of all letters in his possession
indicating the connection between
John ID. ArchbOld of the Standard
Oil Company and executive and cam

Hearst was the first witness at the
reopening of the Investigations. He
told the committee at the beginning
that he, had some other letters that
had not been published.
Chairman Clapp asked Hearst if
he had ever seen the original OF the
Photographic copies. The latter re-
piled that he was not certain, but
believed that the photographs were
all that he had ever seen.
"Of whom did YOU get them in

the question, and then Hearst re-
piled that he got the copies from
John L. Eddy OF London. the author
of four articles published in a mag
azine. He said he did not know
where Eddy got them.
Pressed further to tell about the
getting of the letters. Hearst said
that Eddy was in his employ as a
magazine writer at the time he had
brought him the letters, but that
Eddy had paid nothing to obtain pos
session of them. Hearst suggested
that Mr.. Eddy probably would be
willing to appear to tell how the
letters were taken from the files of
the Standard OIL Company.
