turned over TO trustee the $759,00 in
bonds assigned to him as a share in
the profits of the Continental Co. was
outlined yesterday to the jury.
Roy j. Barnett, tax commissioner for
Stewards company, testified he had ac-
ceded to request by the board chair
man November 26, 1921, to accept the
bonds as trust, and that Stewart had
personally prepared the document. This
came after the Government had won
point in introducing Stewards testimony
to the Senate committee April "a, when
he had disclosed receipt of the bonds
and existence of the trust agreement
JuStic Bailey overruled defense objec-
ton to this record. following which it
was read to the jury.
Correspondents Testify.
Two newspaper correspondents, Elliott
Thurston of the New York World and
Paul Y. Anderson of the st. Louis Post
Dispatch, testified the defendant had
told the Senate public lands committee
last February that he had received no
Continental bonds and had no knowl-
edge of any distribution of bonds by the
company. Their statements were at
tackled by Frank J. Hogan, defense
counsel, who contended that the news
papers represented by the witnesses had
been bitterly hostile to Stewart.
Barnett said Stewart had stipulated
in 1921 that existence of the trust
agreement should be kept secret and
that they alone knew of 1t until in 1924,
when they informed L. L. Stevens, coun-
sci for the Standard Oil Co. of Indi-
ana, about it. In 1924 also, Barnett
said, he had ceased clipping coupons
from the Liberty bonds upon a sug-
gestion to this effect from Stewart, be-
cause Of publicity resulting from the
oil scandal Investigations at that time.
The trust agreement held that Bar
nett should retain the bonds until Stew
art directed their transfer to his COM
pany or to the Sinclair Crude Oil Pur-
chasing Co., which concerns, he has as.
serted. were to receive them eventually.
Barnett produced record showing that
the bonds, amounting to $707 500, with
accumulated interest, had been turned
over last April to the Sinclair Co.,
with stipulation that he, as trustee,
would not be responsible for any tax
claims levied on them against the Con-
tinental Trading Co.
