INSURANCE CASE
NEARLY ENDED

District Attorney Elmer w. Heald
was prepared this morning to rest
the states case in trial of Lewis
Hart and seven others on fraud
ulent stock charges, after NJ. Penn
Phillips had been freed on motion
of the prosecutor, defense attorneys
argued for dismissal of the case
against Bert Bane, and Heald and
D. H. Wolford, his chief criminal
assistant, presented a motion that
all states evidence be admitted as
applicable to all defendants.
The state was ready to rest at
1920 this morning. After a recess
Judge Arthur l.. Mundo dismissed
the jury until o'clock tomorrow
morning, when the defense will be-
gin presentation of evidence.
The jury was dismissed in order
that attorneys might argue their
various motions, all of which have
an important bearing on the out
come of the trial.
Ernest r. Utley and H. w. Jud-
son, victorious in securing the dis
miSSal of the charges against NJ
Penn Phillips, pressed the matter
to the point of asking that Bert
Bane also be dismissed, but linking
this with another motion that GER
tain testimony given several days
ago be stricken from the record as
having no direct bearing on the
events related in the grand jury in
dictment.
Should Judge Mundo grant the
latter motion and order this testi-
mony stricken, it is probable Bane
will be discharged, since it is the
only evidence linking him with as
serted fraudulent sales of stock in
the Associated Insurance Under
writer's, Inc, on the representation
it was stock in the Associated Life
Insurance company.
The district attorney this morn
ing asked for time in which to pre-
pare his answers to the arguments
by defense attorneys relating to
the Objectionable evidence.
The first motion this morning was
by the district attorney. He asked
that all evidence introduced dur
ing the three weeks of trial be ad-
mitted against all defendants COL
Should Judge Mundo
grant this motion the prosecutor
will have won a long step toward
proving the conspiracy charge voted
in the grand jury indictment.
Such a step would link Lewis Hart,
Leslie, Percy Pickerell, ST.
mon Newman, Arthur Goldberg,
Louis Rogasner and Bernard Phil
lips together in sales of stock here.
Rulings on each of the motions
before the court were expected this
afternoon.

them in the robbery Edgar Sparks,
10. and Noel Ozbirn, 18, took the
witness stand in an apparent
effort, not to free themselves, but
to secure freedom for Carl o.
birn, %.
Noel Ozbirn took the stand this
morning to name man whom he
knew as Carl Robertson as the
third member of the party which
held up and robbed P. j. Clark,
proprietor of the West store.
Edgar Sparks yesterday afternoon
has testified he was unwilling to
disclose the name of the third
party.
The boys were in conference
with their attorney before court
opened this morning.
Carl Ozbirn testified this morn
ing he first knew of the robbery
when his brother told him of it

Phar Laps Death
Causes Mourning,
Continued From Page II

too late for medical skill to save
/ the racer.
As the turf world gradually re-
covered from its amazement at the
sudden passing of the greatest
money winning gelding in history,
cables and kilograms of coincidence
began pouring in for Mr.. and Mrs.
/ Davis. Phar Lap stood next to
Willis Sharpe Kilmer's Sun Beau
as the greatest money winning
horse of all time. And a special
event at Tanforan track, nearby,
had been arranged for this month
at which Phar Lap might have
established a new record.
Davis and Harry Telford of Aus
tralia bought the colossal horse in
the Antipodes for $780,
He was nameless when I pur-
chased him." Davis explained. I'VE
debated long time what we should
call him. Lightning fitted him
best. Finally someone told me Phar
Lap meant lightning in Japanese
and there we were"
In 48 races, Phar Lap placed in
all but nine. In those nine he
carried the heaviest impost of $50
pounds. During October and Nov
ember last year, he won eight races
out of nine starts. His great sta
nina permitted him to win the
Melbourne cup at 2 miles; the fu-
turity stakes of furlongs, and
set an Australian record of min
utes, 2l2 seconds for the mile and
quarter. within a period Of six
month. He was six years old
Phar Lap had been scheduled
for an intensive track campaign IN
the middle west this summer, to be
followed by tour of English
tracks.
Trainer Grieves
Harder hit than anyone by Phar
Laps death was Tommy Woodcock,
his trainer.
It was Woodcock, then an over
weight, not very successful jockey,
who won the big red gelding's af-
fections when Davis bought him.
Woodcock's were the only hands he
knew for five years, except those
of jockeys who rode him in races.
Tommy was with mis- charge when
the end came. ILL., swaying on his
feet, the big horse nuzzled his
trainers arm gently. Woodcocks
arms went up, around Phar Laps
neck. They stood that way a
moment and then "the Red Ter
ror's feet slipped OH the straw. His
legs buckled. He went down, car
rying Tommy with him.
Phar Lap was dead.
Woodcock threw himself against
the horses stiffening body, sobbing
wildly.
Ed Perry, owner of the stable
where he died, swore softly.
Bill Elliott, jockey who rode Phar
Lap to victory in the Aqua Calien-
te race, walked slowly outside the
stable, then to his room, where he
sat alone.
Perry and Mrs. Davis gently lift
ed Woodcock from the dead horse.
Its all right, Tommy she said.
You couldn't help it"
Then the grim business of the
began. A sledge was Sc
cured and a tractor attached. |
Phar Laps body was rolled onto
the sledge, and belching exhaust |
the tractor dragged it to a feed /
barn some distance aWay-an iron
horse dragging the prince of flesh .
and blood horses.
A little while later, the veteri-
narians finished their work.

LODGE LOTTERY
WARNING ISSUED
Shrine Convention Pool Is
Target of Probe.

By United Press
NEW YORK, June "a warn
ing to all fraternal groups that lot
teries, whether in the name Of char
ity or entertainment, are illegal, was
broadcast today by Nugent Dodds,
assistant United States attorney
general, in connection with the fed
eral governments investigation into
activities of nation wide lottery
ring, the World Telegram said to-
day.
The investigation has been in
progress here since last February
and has centered on enterprises OPP
Grated for the Shriners. knights Of
Columbus, Eagles and Moose.
Dodds' warning, it was indicated,
referred particularly to a gift en-
terprise now being conducted under
auspices of the Shriners. Award of
Sis 900 in cash prizes will be made
at the Shrine convention in San
Francisco, the World Telegram
said.
The chief promoter Of these fra
ternal lotteries, according to the
newspaper, is Bernard c. MCGUIRE
of Aurora, Ill. Philadelphia and
New York. who is expected to ap-
pear before a federal grand jury
here soon.
