The hank rocordV of I Coakley and Pelletier, offered by the (.-.-tate were excluded as a whole but were admitted in four cases involving j money transactions. No evidence was offered for the defense, United States Senator James ; A. Reed, of Missouri, chief counsel for Pelletier, declared that the whole 1 proceeding was based on a conspiracy 'against his client by political and per sonal enemies and also that the prose cution had fallen flat because the : state had failed to connect the dis jtrict attorney with any wrong-doing;.
