defendants in the mail fraud trial,
made similar motions as seven weeks
of testimony in the case came to
close today.
Arguments Open Monday.
Their claims that the Government
had not proved its charges failed as
had those made in behalf of the In
sulls. The four, all officers of Halsey
Stuart & Co., investment banking
house, held posts at the same time in
insults Corporation Securities Co.
The closing arguments will open
Monday, and may last week. District
Attorney Dwight H. Green said he
would hurry them along so the case
may 60 to the jury by Thursday night.
Judge Wilkerson indicated he may
summarize the case after attorneys
finish.
Il don't often comment on the evi-
dence," he told Defense Attorney
Floyd e. Thompson, but I will do it
in this case If I feel 1t is necessary.
Judges in this court are not merely
umpires; they are here to see that
justice is done"
Deceit by Concealment.S
Another remark of the judges
heightened the attorneys interest in
what he says to the jury.
"It is not necessary, to constitute
fraud, that there be Affirmative mis-
representation" Judge Wilkerson said
in ruling on motion, "the deceit may
be by concealment. In sales circulars
sent out to small investors, a higher
degree of candor is required Than in
literature intended for financial ex-
perts."
Samuel insult, ir-, was the final wit
ness today, answering question on
the loss sustained by the insult family
when the Corporation Securities Co.
crashed in 1882. The Government had
contended that the losses were mostly
paper profits"

DENVER, November 1.-THE fel-
low who used to bank a pair Of six
guns on the bar of the Red Dog sa-
loon and yell for "shot of red"
likes his liquor soft and sissy" now.
Half apologetically, the dispensers
Of post-repeal beverages in Denver
confess the change that's come over
the old-time Westerner's drinking
habits.
"It's awful funny to be handlin'
out a glassful of somethin' that looks
like a chocklit soda with gin and
what-not poured into it to some Of
these fellows that come down of the
range to quench their thirst in the big
town." said one veteran Of many years
behind the bar.
why, in the old days, they wouldn't
any more think Of drinking one Of
these ladies' doses than they would
have rode a Shetland pony" he went
on, sadly. "Of course, some Of 'em
drinks whisky. and noble rations Of
it, too. but most of the boys who
wear 10-gallon hats seem to want
to take on 10 gallons Of assorted fancy
drinks when they come to town.
They've almost forgotten just q plain
old red nkker"
As the barkeep-cal him Joe-put
it: There amt any special favorites
on the list" for the modern top hand
in his week end dude clothes.
THE fancier the better-that's the
way they order now.
"Vermouth, gin. cognac, creme de
menthe-it doesn't seem to matter to
the boys from the COW county. They
take 'em all, right down the line.
just like the Indians took Custer. But
the drinks have to be shook up and

quotation will be pardoned If the
quCter admits that he has known old
Bourbon-capital "B,' if you please
down in Kentucky on its native heath
no mixture of whisky and soda,
please-and he has also tasted moon
shine in the mountains Of Virginia,
Tennessee and Kentucky when it was
as clear and sparkling as mountain
brook. 1t wasn't SO bad.
Now Mr. Cobb says: This here
fiery stuff called corn whisky, whether
white or red, is an unlawful offshoot
from the bourbon tribe and among
Kentuckians, at least, is regarded as
but an illegitimate orphan Of the royal
line. born out of wedlock in the shine
of the moon, left as founding on
the doorstep of some convenient boot
logger and abounding in fuseloil." p"
AS matter of fact, did not the MOON
shine precede the old Bourbon?
Many an old plantation in the South
