large amount for the county to de-
post at any one time? A. No.
Q. AS a matter Of fact, that was
an ordinary and customary amount
to deposit? A. Yes; usually.
o. Anywheres from three to five
thousand dollars? A. Yes; that is
o. Wasn't customary at times,
Mr. Mckee, for Sheridan County to
depcsit as much as twenty or twen-
ty-fve thousand dollars at time :?
A. Yes.
o. So that there was nothing out
of the ordinary in Sheridan County
making a deposit of either three or
five thousand dollars? ? A. None what
ever.
Q. And as a matter cf fact, the
county made deposit of between
three and five thousand dollars a
short time prior to that, had they
not? A. l presume they had. They
made them quite regularly, every
week or sO-every week or every two
or three days.
O. Isn't it also true that the treas
urer's account In the First National
Bank did no hucuate more than five
or six thousand dollars at any time
during 1928? A. That is true.
O. Now, it is charged in the com
plant here that the bank was in
solvent at the time this deposit was
made, and that if the deposit had not
been made, it would have been neces-
sary to close the bank; is that true
A. No sir.
O. So that, whether you received
the three or five thousand dollars

five thousand dollars would simply

not been made, the deposit which you
say was made a few days after the
note was returned, the bank would

Lawyer.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, April 22.-Just as
the Harry K. Thaw sanity trial re-
cessed for luncheon, I'haw rushed to
the press table and burst into an ex-
cited speech in denunciation of Will
liam a. Gray, who had been address
ing the jury in opposition to Thaw's
release. When he calmed down Thaw
said he had not been excited because
of Mr. Gray's speech, but was nervous
because of the danger of losing the
jury if certain records were intro
duced.
Under the common law, Thaw told
those around the press table, juror
might be withdrawn. He talked loud
and rapidly and attracted the atten-
courtroom.
Now, wait a minute: wait min
ute" Thaw cried. My mother wants
to talk to you, too; don't go away"
Thaw's mother, however sat calm
ly and gave no indication of planning
to join in the talk. She seemed
puzzled by her sons sudden activity
John NJ. Patterson. counsel for
Thaw. who had not at first noticed
him, came to where Thaw was ad-
dressing those around him. Mr.. Pat
terson protested against "unreason-
able questioning" and called out
angrily, Let Mr.. Thaw alone. He is
entitled to the same privacy as any
other American citizen
When told Thaw had volunteered
some information, Mr.. Patterson ap-
peared nonpluSsed. Bailiffs cleared
the courtroom, and Thaw was still

tors, including the jurors, left the

CONTINUE ARGUMENTS
FOR LOCALIZED BEER
Witnesses Plead for Return of 2.75
Per Cent Alcoholic
Beverage.
URGES MORAL SUAsI0N'
Henry S. Priest Objects to Use of
Guns in Enforcement.

Additional arguments in favor OF
legalizing the sale of 2.75 per cent
beer were presented today to the
House judiciary committee.
A dozen or more witnesses were on
hand to continue the appeal for modi-
fication Of the Volstead act, which
was begun yesterday by representa-
tives Of the American Federation of
Labor.
Centering their arguments around
the evil effects the alleged inability
to enforce present prohibition laws
was creating, the advocates OF modi-
fication insisted that Congress had
authority to permit the sale of 2.75
per cent beverage, since the eighteenth
amendment does not define what
drinks were Intoxicating.
Henry S. Priest, ST. Louis. repre-
scnting the Association Against the
Prohibition Amendment, recommend
ed legalizing the sale of 2.75 per cent
beer as a means of lessening viola,
tionS of the Volstead act. He assailed
the present enforcement system ano
urged that moral suasion' be used
instead of guns"
Asked how moral suasion' would
stop a liquor caravan from crossing
the Canadian border, Mr.. Priest re-
piled that the agents could ascertain
the names of the violatorS and nave
them arrested as any other criminals.

Wire to Stanfeld.

Replying to an inquiry by Senator

telegram made public today that
the testimony of H. w. Ballard of
Los Angeles before the Senate
oil committee that the Teapot
Dome leasing proposal was a mat
ter of general knowledge at the

IF your committee would give
any credit to such nonsensical
statement as that" Mr.. Hearsts
telegram said, you would be sum-

responsible testimony cannot be
