the ee4ft- To- permit him TO wait

Judge Knox then excused the
jury until Friday morning. when
the defense will open. The court

and 1887. He said he personally
paid Bioff $37, 500, in a hotel room
in New York. this being part OF
the grand total he said was de-
manded of his company.

United States Attorney Correa
asked sharply:
why did you pay this? How
did you regard these payments ?"
IL regarded these payments
to Biof and others associated
with him In receiving them as
necessary to- preserve my COM

mands of these union leaders had
him frightened as TO what might

TO the West Coast and that he
personally made the final $4,000
payment to Bioff in the Warwick
Hotel, New York, on Jan. 20. 1898.
Keough said he arranged with
Henry HertZorum, attorney and
official of the company, whose Of
fee was in Chicago to make the
earlier payments. He added that
ne introduced Bioff TO Hertzbrum.
The Paramount executive de-
ciared Bioff first demanded money
of his company in April 1886.

deal" he had made with motion
