TRA|LED IN COURT
Witnesses Describe Move
mentS of Little Black
SatCheI" in Trial.
Br the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, October 23.-De-
tailed movements OF the little black
satchel," which figured prominently
in the Senate oil investigation last
Winter, came up today in the Federal
Court trial of the governments suit
to cancel Elk Hills naval oil reserve
leases granted Doheny interests by
A. T.. Fall, former Secretary OF the
Interior
Whether minute and comprehensive
scrutiny of the trail of 100000 al
legged to have been placed in the
satchel and carried to Fall by E. L.
Doheny, jr., would substantiate the
governments charge that the pay
ment was part of a plot to put Do
heny interests in control Of the Call
forna oil reserves remained to be
seen as court convened today. The
announced intention of government
counsel was to examine as many wit
nesses as necessary to detail the
100000 transaction from all angles.
Young Called to Stand.
Near the close->of yesterdays ses-
| sion former Senator Atlee Pomerene
! of government counsel called to the
| witness stand Graham Young, treas
urer of Blair & Co., New York invest
ment securities firm, with which the
elder Doheny and his son had ac-
! counts.
Over objection of defense counsel,
| Mr.. Pomerene drew from the witness
| a description of how E. L. Doheny.
| jr.. had notified him on November 80,
1921. that he would call that day to
draw 100000; how this 100000 in
| currency was turned over to the
| younger Doheny in a conference room
| of Blair & Co. and how Doheny put
| it in a little black satchel, a sort
of overnight travelling bag"
Deposits Grew Again.
Next the government counsel
| brought out from Charles l., Little
assistant teller of the firm, that one
| month later the younger Doheny's
account with Blair & Co. was above
| 100000 again and that most Of that
amount came from Doheny, sr.
Cross examination brought out
! that it was not unusual for Doheny,
| jr., to have on deposit considerable
sums which came from his father
| The testimony relating to the $780,
600 was taken after Judge Paul J.
Mccormick said he would strike 1t
from the record if the government
failed to connect it with the Elk
Hills leases.
