Mr. Malarkey suddenly departed from
his line of questions to Phelan, and
a-ked. point blank :
"Dm you know Sam Kra.ner'."
Aflr a I nsrthy argument, in which
Judge Ka vanaiiH'h took occasion to
tli rea ten that If the counsel did not
as' quibbling1 he would make iili the
x ami nations himself, m r. Phelan was
permitted to answer the question.
Me said he had seen Krasner in jail.
Krasner formerly had lived in Pre
cinct 3 7. He had been arrested some
time ao on a statutory eharffe and
was re I en sed from the County Jail by
Mr. Word. N"- further attempt was
undo to connect Krasner with the elec
tion frauds.
Watthrr Sfto Oiitnld.
At noon on November 4, K. L. Hart,
a clerk ef tlie day board, was left wittl
l-i.ide tf watch the ballots while the
r-st .f the board went to lunch. Miss
31 ay Hoffman, a not her elerk, testified
t !iat she returned from lunch early,
found Hart standing on the sidewalk
outside the polls, and Linde apparently
asleep on the table inside. Nobody else
was in the room.
A bark dooi of the room, leading inta
f.n open court, was unlocked all the
time, according to ail of the witnesses
yo la r exa mined, except W. I IS.
K now U s. w ho said that he found it
locked tv. ice.

Bailots not fully counted were folded
F. parately and locked in the ballot box
by the itiuht board when relieved by
tfie day board at 8 A. November 4,
:k cotdinir to the testimony. I'mler the
law. ballots are supposed to be taken
J orn the, box one at a time. When the
ii lit lit board returned at 8 P. M.. the
remainder of the uncounted ballots are
.iid to have been lytnu; on the table in
a pile, unfolded at full length. To put:
ttit'in in this position, it was asserted, j
the bailots must have been removed
3Y.mii the box one at a time during the
day.
Ihe only ones of the judges and
clerks who cannot be found are K. 1
Hart, the clerk who was left in the
polling places with Untie, and Georicc
J. Allen, a niht jude, who also wa?
Jell with L,imle for 1 or 2i) minute'
u hile t he m;nt board went to lunch
About mniniuht, November 3. Allen was
last heard uf in Kastern Urea on. Hart
has disappeared completely, as lias then
mysterious Imde whom no one knows.
IHMuppramnee Tboucbt Strange.
Tiie last man who saw I.inde, accord
ing to testimony thus tar. is P. J. Sauer,
a night clerk. When he and X. F. Don
nelly, chairman of the niht board, took
tne ballot boxes to the Courthouse on
tiie niorninp of November j Linde waa
there, testified Sauer. Linde greeted
mem witii the remark:
"Well. J'm ulad to see 37 come in."
Asked by .Mr. Malarkey if he remem
beicd any suspicious occurrence that
im-iht throw some list lit on the irregu
Jurit ies, jl r. Sauer hesitated.
"Well." he said, "when the irragular
lties w-re discovered It didn't deem ex
actly right that Linde should leave
sdiortly aiierward and not show up
j'rain."
t'orroboratiny testimony showed that
3. hide tailed the Sheriff s office by tele
phone when the niicht board first dis
covered the erased bailots and asked to
Ve relieved. Howard Word, the Sheriffs
yon, earne o the polls then, but Linde
had ft, ne w hen he arrived at about 10
o'clock. In a pile of uncounted bal
jojs left by the day board. Chairman
J'onnelly. of the. nis.ht board, had dis
covered 17 baiiots which apparently had
been chanced in favor of Mr. Word.
Howard Word, when shown the ballots,
tuinim ned other deputies, who then
tailed -Mr. Word.
Mierirf Ik Called la.
The niiiht board threw out 71 ballots
which bore erasures of this nature. The
l ecu u at ot f i rials under Judge Kava
jiansh three weeks ai;o discovered that
the ilay board had counted ballots -cf
t!.e same kind for Mr. Word, and evi
dently bal failed to notice the erasures.
Kert Si. Helens, a night clerk, tes
tiiied about the discovery of the fraud
ulent ballots.
"We tudn t know what to do at first."
he sid, 'and then we determined to
et ihe Slu riff's office to decide."
"WIkU 'lid Mr. Word say. when he
cinie?" asked Malarkey.
"He told ns to do what we thought
nst. We h id already decided1 to throw
tiieni out."
"He didn't tell you to count them
for himself?
"No. he said he didn't want the office
if he had to win it by one ill' pal vote."
"But in his complaint' instituting
these contest proceedings. Mr. Word
not only claim these votes you found,
lut he pays he should have received.
"M votes out of the 530 cast. Po you
think he got that many?"
"No. I don't know- anything about
that."
I.lmle Thought Oeputy.
St. Helens testified that Linde in
troduced himself as a oepuly sheriff.
J-a tier said Linde didn't exactly say he
vt a a oeputy. but told him that he
1 nd just returned from Seattle with a
prisoner ami w:i?t tired, but that he
o t 1 1 rt hav e to stay at the pol Is until
The o'int was finished anyway. Brt i
H..ffn;.n. n:eht clerk, said he "under-j
MOeH!" Linde was a deputy sheriff, and i
that Linde had struck in acquaintance
with nun b saving they had met sotne
plate before.
Attorney Farrens. for Word, has.
!un:iij the inijuiry thus far, resented
i ie references to Linde as a deputy
sheriff, devlarinjr that he was not ap
pointed as such.
M. Phelan's testimony, taken when
court openeI yesterday morn In jr. wai
the featire of the riay. A sensation
was creates! by his statement that he
acted on the Democratic committee and
up. a depmy sheriff at the same time.
Sect i ou 30i5. to which M r. "?e.larkey
referred! in questioning Mr. Pi.an,
re is:
"No holder of a public position other
than an office filled by the voters shall
he a orlecate to a convention for the

A. I don't think I did.
A. And Mr. Grussl says you broucht this
man alone up to the Sheriff's office and in
troduced him
Tho Court 1 -do not remember that Mr.
Grussi said that he brouifht hfm up. I re
member he introduced him. 1 might bo in
error about that. I think he said llr. Phr
Inn introduced Linde to him in the Sheriff's
oflhe. bu' I do n.t remember of his saying
that he brought him up there.
Mr. Malarkey Well, maybe not. I gath
ered that that was the thing, because he
said that was where he met the man and
was introduced by Deputy Phelan. But it is
immaterial.
A. I think Mr. Linde was introduced to
Mr. Grussi at the polls, at Precinct 37.
Q. Well, Mr. Grussl says he met Mr.
Linde in the Sheriff's office, that Is. In
Word's office, either on Saturday or on Mon
day before the election, and that you. Phe
lan, was the one that introduced Linde to
Grussl and that you told Grtusi you wanted
to knoir from Grussi if it wouid be all right
for you to put Linde In Precinct .'!7 In your
place, that you had to leave: that that is
v. bat you talked about, you having ben as.
signed to charge of 37 by the Sheriff? Now,
what aiout that?
Introduction Not Recalled.
A. I was assigned to Precinct 37 by Mr.
GruhSl, of the ShfriiTs office, but where Ir.
Grussi got his introduction to Llnde I think
was at Precinct 37 that morning when Mr.
G russi a nd M r. Pa n ot ca me up there. I
don't remember having introduced him In
the Sheriff' office.

for Mr. Word, but for the whole ticket.

no. not that I remember of.
ti. W-ll. was it understood between you
and Grussi and Mr. Parrot that yqu were to

A. I id not.
Wen. it proves that nobody that Is i
holuius office uihex thau one tilled by the
votesrs or a public position can at the same
time be a member of the political commit
tee. A. I don't think that applies in my case
at all.
U. Whv not?
A. Because I think that means an elect
Ive office.
Q. It says just the contrary. It Says one
otir.;r thai an office filled by the voters. It
means one filled by appointments. Had Mr.
