OLTMPIA. Trash.. Aug. 17. (Staff Cor respondence.) Seasoned old campaigner though he Is in criminal trials. Attorney George C. Israel, representing J. H. Schively In the impeachment trial before the Senate, was outgeneraled today by the members of the impeachment board, whose youthfulness has been the occasion for frequnt sarcastic comment by the ' respondent's counsel. The point gained today materially short ens the protective length ot the trial W making unnecessary the introduction r amended articles to take the place of the one stricken on demurrer and the 13 withdrawn by the state because defective. This step and the taking of the first evi dence on the perjury count, which is con ridered the most Important of the 26, marked, another day of real progress. Mass of Testimony Admitted. The point gained today was in secur ing the admission of all the testimony I marshaled by the state for the purpose of I proving nine of the impeachment articles I withdrawn yesterday. inis testimony wa submitted not to prove the charges in the withdrawn articles, but in cor- roboration of testimony introduced yes terday in support of other charges, and to show a general plan or scheme or ex tortion extending over a long period of time. The only reason so many articles were I incorporated in the Impeachment charges waa because it was reared mat ii out. one for two were proven the defense might be made that the alleged extortion waa ( due to inadvertence or mistake. The evi- there was no mistake about the extor tion alleged in article 3 and 4. concern ing which the state introduced evidence yesterday. Much Time Thus SaTed. The purpose of submitting so many articles having been accomplished, the Impeachment managers do not now deem it necessary to submit amended articles to take the place of those withdrawn, and it Is estimated that several days' time that would have been spent in argumentative battle is thus saved. Attorney Israel objected to the admis sion of the testimony except it be for the specified purpose of showing an unlawful Intent In collecting fee for examina tion of companies. In combatting the in troduction of this testimony. Israel gave a hint that the defense of these articles will be that Schively acted under the coercion, demand and instructions of a superior officer. Depositions Piling In. The testimony mentioned was In the form of depositions, and In each instance tended to support charges that 8chively had collected either the sum of $100 or the sum of J200 for "verification of re port." but had made no examination of company securities and had submitted no Itemized statement of expenses as re quired by law. These depositions were by R. El Pierce, assistant secretary of the Colorado Na tional Life Insurance Company, of Den ver; B. P. Richards, president of the Commonwealth (Insurance Company, of New York; L,. M. Fairbanks, secretary of the Illinois Fire Insurance Company, of Springfield: James M. Canning", auditor of the Jefferson Fire Insurance- Company, of Philadelphfa: W. H. Downing, assist ant treasurer of the Massachusetts Bond ing A Insurance Company, of Boston; Robert J. Hazeltlne. secretary of the Philadelphia Casualty Company: C. C. Brown, assistant secretary of the Sea board Fire & Marine Insurance Company, of Galveston; R. A. Dobbin. Jr.. secre tary, and F. B. Lloyd, general Western agent of the United Surety Company, of New York; Arthur D. Baker, secretary treasurer of the Michigan Commercial Insurance Company. Lansing; and F. C. Overton, president Standard Life Insur ance Company. Keokuk, la. The state also concluded its evidence on article 17, charging the extortion of -ijo from the Washington Hardware, & Implement Dealers- Mutual Fire Insur ance Company, of Spokane. E. W. Even son, secretary of the company, testified that a firm of experts in Spokane was " employed for five days on the company's books to prepare a report for Mr. Schively and that the company paid the experts JSg.TO. Schively. after spending: !5 minutes ! in the company's office, during which the only bushiness transacted was the delivery to him of the experts' report and a check, charged the company $100 for "verification of report." On cross-examination Evenson identi-. fled a written report made to him by Schively later" and admitted that he could not say that the time in the office- was all that Schively had ex pended' in "verifying the report." Perjury Charge Taken Up. Article 23 was disposed of. which charges attempted extortion from the Atlas Insurance Company. of Des Moines, and a recession from the de mand by Schively when he learned that C S. Best, of Seattle, waa the com pany's Western representative. From Mr. Best, who was called as a witness, Schlvely's counsel drew out on- cross examination that he had been in the state two and one-half years; had no acquaintance here prior to his arrival, and had recently been appointed on the insurance code commission by Gover nor Hay. The taking of testimony on the Spo kane perjury charge was commenced late in the afternoon, with the summon ing to the stand of E. R. Ward, former president of the Pacific Livestock Asso ciation of Spokane. Part of the perjury alleged to have been coramitteed by Schively was In denying before the Spokane grand Jury that he had signed three promissory notes in favor Ward, aggregating $1200. to induce him toVe slgn as president in his favor. Witness Mude Uncomfortable. Ward testified to the signing and de livery of the notes, and of the agree ment with Schively. but said that the notes had been turned over to the Fidelity National Bank of Spokane as collateral security by him and that he had not seen them since. Schlvely's counsel gave Ward an uncomfortable half-hour. He first showed Ward s memory to be bad by get ting his denial of recollection of certain correspondence and then submitting the correspondence. Then Israel demanded to know if the notes had not been signed by the company and not by Schively. Ward declaied they had not. In a tilt between the Impeachment managers and Israel the latter declare his client had informed him he knew nothing of the notes. Manager Edge admitted that the state could not produce the notes, and Israel secured a subpena for Cashier J. vv Lindsey. of the Spokane Bank, with in atructions to produce the bank register of notes, loans and discounts tor juiy 1906. Mrs. Ward, who followed her nus band on the stand, testified that M Ward had shown the notes to her before sending them to bank. She swore that the name signed was J. H. acniveiy.
