Judge Norton and Wilson, held that It should be admitted leaving to the referees final decision as to Its competency. Albert B. Ridgewar. Portland attorney, and former of ficer of the state bar association, the last witness called, by the prosecution, related that in the fall of 1927 Mr. Joseph had asked him how he could file a complaint against a member of the supreme court when a ease ne was inter ested in was pending. Ridgeway told him be thought the bar as sociation had no power to bring action against a member of the Judiciary. Later at -Joseph's re ouest, he wrote the latter a letter which was admitted as evidence, lit the letter he repeated his opin ion of the lack of Jurisdiction of the bir association over the mem ber of a court, his confidence in their integrity, and condemned appeals to the press prior to the decision of a case. He stated that one of bis references was to Jo seph's attitude toward Justice Mc Bride and one toward Justice Rand. He stated that in his tel ephone conversation, Joseph told him he had nothing to do with the Telegram's articles, and that he. Ridgeway, told Joseph "I know the Telegram is a client of yours. I think personally that yon have something to do with it. An attorney has some power over a client and I think It Is your duty to stop the publication." Prosecntion Rest as AD Testimony Completed Attorney Thompson waived in troduction of testimony respect ing the charge of conspiracy to plant liquor against Joseph, ad mitting that he had found the as sertions of one, Munson, as unde pendable as Attorney Veatch had intimated. With that the pros ecution rested. The testimony of Condit, first witness for the defense, a former automobile dealer in Portland, was briefly as follows: that in 1925 after he had lost a suit in circuit court for divorce from his wife, Constance Condit, Tony Nep pach introduced him to Thomas Mannix, that Mannlx told him at their first meeting that he knew absolutely he could get a divorce for him on appealing: the case to the supreme court. Mannlx told him he had influence with the Judges, that he would handle the case alone. Condit said he went back to his former attorney, C. C. Hall, who told him such a victory could not be gained. Later Man nix assured him he could produce the Judge and after that called Condit to come to his office, where he went with Neppach and there met Justice McBrlde. "Man nix took a bottle, a half-pint of whiskey. Justice McBrlde and he and Neppach drank but Mannix didn't. Mannix told McBrlde that Condit would have a divorce case and that he would handle it, but that Condit was dubious about his getting a favorable decision. Mc Brlde replied, 'I've never failed ypu.' Mannlx said Condit wanted to - be sure and McBrlde said, YouTI win all right'." He then said they had more drinks, then the four got into a car, driven by the Condit and Con ser garage, where they got three or four bottles of . liquor, then drove to McBiide's home on Deer Island, the justice riding In the front seat with Condit. They stayed at the Judge's home IS or 20 minutes and left him there, the others returning. Condit paid Mannlx his fee of 3500 and the case went to the supreme court. Mannlx told him he didn't need transcript or evidence and Con dit asserted the brief was gotten out before tbe transcript. Relating his further relations with Mannlx and McBrlde, he said that Mannlx told him he should supply them with liquor. Mannix told him he had Influence with McBrlde to get the divorce case set ahead. Later he himself spoke to McBrlde and one week later got a favorable decislos. While the case was pending, he took liquor to Mannix or McBrlde and sent liquor to Mannlx' office,, sending it in tire cover cartons or Inner tube cartons. Once Man nlx came with the Judge and Nep pach and got 12 bottles of liquor. Condit testified he took McBrlde to Salem a half dozen times, to FINEST TORIC READING LENSES $4.95 Eyeglass Insurance and thor ough examination Included. THOMPSON-GLUTSCH OPTICAL CO. 110 N.

Once he had din ner with the Jsdge, bis wife and daughter at the Marion. Condit testified that he heard Mannlx and McBrlde discuss eases pending In the supreme court. One Mannlx said to McBrlde con cerning the Neppach-Norvall case, We re going to win this case. aren't we?" The justice an swered, "Yes.- McBrlde said, "Why worry about the procedure then?" After Condit won his case he complained about having to con tinue to supply the liquor. He said Mannlx told him: "We have seen yon through your case, now you will have to see Neppach through his case." He also as serted that Mannlx told him he4 had loaned McBrlde $500. . Oa cross examination Condit admitted he had been In four di vorce suits and other litigation. He said he had heard the Wemme ease and the Brigham easo dis cussed In the Mannlx office, but when Attorney Thompson showed him certified copies of the papers in tbe case showing . dates other than those he referred to Condit repeated he had heard them dis cussed but his memory waa gen eral. He denied that he had tried to sell a car to the Justice's daughter. It was "good liquor" he was furnishing, he asserted. In the afternoon Attorney Thompson sought to link Condit up with Hansen, political writer on the Telegram. Condit admit ted he had met Hansen about two months ago, but denied he had visited with him at this hearing. He asserted he had had no under standing with Joseph as to his testimony before the grievance committee of the bar. After the noon recess Arthur L. Clarke, one of the prosecutors .on the case against Mannlx moved to strike certain of the answers of Mannix to the amended complaint and demurred too much of the material In the complaint. After a recess and conference of the referees. Judge Sklpworth an nounced that both sets of plead ings were prolix, but "We want nothing smothered. All should have the light of day. We want to hear the whole story. Let ev ery man hare his inning, then we will sift the chaff from the wheat. Because of his presence in the city, one witness In the proceed ings against Mannix, to betrled after the Joseph case, Geo. H. Marsca, clerk of the federal court, was allowed to testify. He was examined by Evan Reames of the trio of prosecutors and cross-examined by Frank Lonergan, at torney tor. Mannlx. He identified certain papers in tbe case of the alien property custodian and the E. Henry Wemme company ts. SCHAEFER'S THROAT AND LUNG BALSAM for coughs due to colds; soothes the throat.

When the Joseph hearing was resumed the, next witness after Condit waa M. Pallay, a quaint character who -waa a little faint after climbing the few steps to the witness stand. Before testifying ho demanded that "George Joseph guarantee to keep me harmless against any comeback." He re fused to testify even after the Judge admonished him he would have to, so Mr. Joseph assured him he would keep , him "harm less" and he testified that he had seen McBrlde In the Mannlx office many times bnt that he did not see him consume liquor there.

After three rounds McBrlde slipped to the' floor and. be and Powers nicked him up and laid him on a table In n back room. An interchange between John Carson of the prosecuting staff and Judge Sklpworth brought the comment from the Eugene Judge that he had been designated as presiding Judge and would serve as such, when Carson appealed for the ruling of the fuil bench. Later the Judge announced his col leagues sustained his ruling. Jacob J. Maxurosky testified that he saw McBrlde In Mannlx' office in 1920. mil?
