 Always Washed Pants
 The defendant claimed he al- ways personally washed the pants of his suit and had never sent them out to be cleaned He said that his landlady had sent them out without his instructions when she was taking care of his laundry.
 Concluding his direct examina- ton, Meeks said that the only time he ever saw Campbell was at the morgue. Replying to Mon agle, he declared that he never knew, killed or had anything to do with the dead man.
 Cross Examination
 U. s. Attorney Gilmore personally conducted the cross examination of the defendant which was not concluded at the end of yester- days session. He spent the major part of the first hour minutely questioning Meeks on his gambling activities at Anchorage succeeding in getting little additional infor- mation to that already brought out. Most of the time, Gilmore in terrogated the prisoner in quiet voice, but at times he roared and pointed at the man on the witness stand in attempts to apparently trip up his testimony.
 Meeks told Gilmore that he had his $500 before the body of Campbell was found, but did not give John Kalinowski any money until afterwards because, at that time, he said, everyone in town knew he had money and it was no longer a secret.
 Gilmore Gives Lie
 After that, Gilmore shouted You lied plenty of times about that money, didn't you?" Meeks was momentarily shaken but re- olied Let's get down to business. Are you trying me for murder or or having money?p
 From that point on, the delen- liant said that several witnesses were liars. He said that Kali lowski had lied when he said that Weeks had loaned $3 to Camp ,ell
 At this point, through question ng by Gilmore. Meeks admitted le had lied to Didelius when he ave a statement to the FBI. He Ilso admitted lying to Skinner, Ritter and others.
 FBI Agent Is Liar
 He said that Virginia Brown had jed if she claimed that Camp ,ell had been in his (Meeks) room. He was never there" declared the accused man. He also denied that Virginia Brown could have seen and himself walking up he street.
 He said that he did not have any with Kalinowski in which he told the latter to leave own so that he couldn't give evil 1ence. He said that Didelius, who said he overheard the conversation, Is nothing but liar
