insOn was called, identified the notes and they were read to the jury over ! objections Of counsel for the defense. Neither showed superscription nor | signature and both were appeals for

 Carpenter was then recalled and permitted to relate conversations he had with Davis and Pardcc regarding ! the notes He also admitted he left the saws overnight in the door of the office so he could carry them to Davis along with the lamp, which he as stunned would be furnished later.

 Barnum's Interrogatory. 1t was late when the witness was turned over 10 W. l.. Barnum for cross-cxamination. Barnums first
 question brought tine attorneys for i the prosecution to their feet, with
 successful objection His next was to much the same effect, but went 1 through. IL drew from Carpenter the admission that he was serving a sent encc for having conspired and aided in the escape of eight Federal pris- oners from the Maricopa county jail last year. Carpenter admitted that Inc was made trusty and given certain ' liberties one day before the arrival of Davis in this jail That was on De cembcr 18th. The next day, he said ! he had his first conversation with Davis. IL was day or so afterward some time between the 18th and ! 18th that he took the first note to | Pardcc. Thereafter and until January
 24th, he had no communication with | Pardec.
 ! Barnum asked if it were not true
 there had been no note the first time, and ii the witness hadn't merely gone to Pardcc with a verbal proposition | to get Davis money out of the bank, and if Pardcc hadn't said: ''I won't mix up in Davis affairs. Let his at
 torney or the sheriff get his money | for him Carpenter said: "No.' l Further questions brought out the
 fact Davis had given the witness 2
 check on the Bank of Arizona, that he had cashcd it for S299.1O. receiving 1 $40 as an honorarium for this ser vice. \ week or two later, Davis gave Carpenter S20 bill.
 i Carpenter denied that Pardcc had
 warned him against tangling mp in
 any more jail breaks. He said he hadn't told Doe of his failure to i ind anything in the old barn, follow
 ing the delivery of the first note. ! He denied Barnum's question; When you delivered the second note on January 24th. didn't Pardec tell
 you if you brought any more notes he would show them to the shcriff's officcs" He said he didn't sec Docs assistant, Bob SouthcrS in the stables
 on his return an hour latcr-"I don't know him
 Regarding what he said took place at the stables on January 18th, Bar mum asked: Do you mean 10 tell this jury that you actually did go into that office" "I sure do" replied the witness. He said Pardcc wasn't around, but couple of boys were. He said he left the saws overnight so the officers might sec them in Pardcc's office.
 Pardec was not present when he went to get the saws on the 18th. On the 10th, however, Pardcc was the only man present at the entrance to the stables, when he arrived. Doe was not reading a sport page with Southcrs, he said
 ''Is it not Q fact that that envclop, was empty and that Doe called your attention to it?" thundercd Bar mum.
 No
 Carpenter said he could not tell the exact time of day some ot these things happened. He had not cx- pcotcd to have to go over them."
 The name Of C2rCcO Diaz. anothei trusty was then brought into the case. Carpenter said he had moved upstairs to occupy a cell with Diaz, shortly after the saws were brought in.
 Flynn brought up the subject of the money on redirect examination. Judge Sawtcllc intcrjectcd GucS- ton: What did Davis give you the $2O for"
 50 if the saws didn't come in in the way Inc figured, l could get them,' said Carpenter.
 He said Davis had asked him to l get gun hc DaviS) had left with ! Pardcc last Summer, but that Doe had not made any reply to his request. i
