This phase of the case developed late this afternoon when the trial of the case was resumed, and the affidavit of Dunbar, to the effect that his private account books had been destroyed, was presented by Counsel Fulton and Bingham. The discovery was made by Counsel McNary and McMahan. for plaintiffs that the wording of the affidavit was altogether in the third person, instead of the direct swearing of defendant Dunbar, which, they claim nullified' the affidavit and did not bind the affiant, whereupon the court waived all technicalities and bound the defendant down to solid law and prac tice. The court administered a second rebuke upon counsel for defendant, censuring them for the apparent Inclina tion of the defense to conceal the true facts of and hinder the progress of the case, and he terminated his statement by saying that no more dilatory tactics would be tolerated and that the court meant business. He took occasion to take former Audit ing Clerk S. A. Koser under Secretary Dunbar to task for his alleged "lapse of V tt, t f : - memory" concerning the schedule of fees in force In the Secretary's office during IXm bar's term, and the court ordered that Mr. Koser be replaced upon the stand and given a chance to tell what he knows. In the event that counsel for defendant fails to produce Dunbar, as required by the court, the court intimated that pro ceedings far contempt .would be immedi ately Instituted against him. Counsel Fulton gave the court notice that he would contest the order to the ex tent of an appeal to the Supreme Court, but this threat had no intimidating; ef fect upon the court. Dunbar Got $100,000. It has been shown by the evidence thus far produced that Dunbar has collected approximatejy $170,000 in fees during his eight-year term, of which he turned over about $70,000 to the State Treasury under the law which requires him to turn over 60 per cent of the license fees collected from insurance companies, which would leave a balance of about $100,000 to his credit and unaccounted for. In his state ment, this afternoon, the court held that the provisions of the state constitution are supreme, in the eyes of the court, and that any defendant was bound, under oath, to observe its restrictions, notwith standing the acts of the Legislature to the contrary or the practices of his predecessors.
