"I thouaht he was trying to lead me

Heney then went into the arrest of
Horace McKlnley for trying to aecure
a large number of claims during 1801
and brought out tha fact that Maya had
made the arrest at the instigation of
Attorney Moulton of the Northern Pa
cific, who had told F. P. Mays of tha Mc
Klnley deal. McKlnley waa to take up
the land and then transfer It to Puter

In the office of John H. Hall, and a few
other Incidental questlona and then
turned loose the dogs of war.

Didn't you tell him that you could
not convict Thayer without tho evi
dence of the entrymen and didn't Hayes
tell you the entrymen would not tes
tify unless they were assured thev

"X aon t rememDer saying it. l don t
remejnber talking to him," aald Mays.
"Didn t you tell him that you would
prosecute the entrymen just as vigor
ously aa you would Thayer?" demanded
Heney.
"I may have aald It," said Mays. "I
would havo prosecuted the entrymen. I
may have told him I would prosecute
all violators of the law." i
The proaecutor turned back once more
to the Thayer caae and showed that
8. C. Spencer had asked to go before
the grand jury and had demanded docu
mentary evidence which Maya had in
hla possession, but which he denied hav
ing. Thla evidence consisted of letters
written bv Thayer and contracta algned
by him making out a clear case. Maya
said he did not remember ever having
had the documents and was aeked to
refresh his memory by examining them.
At this point he was excused until Mon
day morning In order that Harry Rob
ertson might take the stand.
Robertson, by his testimony, prac
tically gave the lie to Bristol.
H. H. llendrlcks, during his testimony,
said that Bristol had offered him Im
munity ir ne would become a govern
ment witness. Bristol later In tne trial
denied that he had ever had a conver
sation with Hendricks and Robertson
was brought down from Seattle to re
butt this testimony of Bristol's.
Robertson said he had been worklne
in the United States attorney's office in
August, 1906, and that one night Hen
dricks had come to the office between
9 and 10 o'clock. He had waited In
the outer office for a ahort time and
then Bristol had come out to see him.
The two had talked for a few minutes
and had then gone Into the private of
fice, where Hendrlcka had ataved for
about half an hour.

pottery, which brings him $60,000 a

The king of Saxony owns a porcelain

Lippe (Detmold) runs a large model
