' JEFFEH AHEAD IN CASCADE RAC IN CIRCUIT COURT TELLS EMPIRE STORY Not Aware of Statement in Appli ication That Cash Was Paid for Stock ' (dontlaoad from page 1) subscribed, most of bis money was in property and he could not turn this into cash without a great sac rifice. He said that he certainly expected to pay his note and still planned to do so. C. J. Keller suggested that he pay Coshow the commission and let Coshow apply this on his note but Coshow ob jected. He said that If this was done and there was ever any in vestigation It would look as' if they had tried to conceal some thing. In accordance with hts wishes he was credited with $3000 on his note. He also stated that his note had originally been made out at 0 per eent but later, when they had agreed to Increase the interest on subscription notes. he had changed this to 7 per cent No Misrepresentation Made, He Declares Coshow denies that he bad ever made any misrepresentation to anybody regarding salaries or the officers' subscriptions. He said that he thought the statements made by witnesses regarding the placing of the money collected with the state were absurd be cause no law required this. He stated that the securities would later be deposited with the state Insurance commission to qualify the subsidiaries as was required by the law. The judge recalled conversa tions he had with several of the witnesses who testified for the state and told of the statements made him and the circumstanc es under which these were made. He said he told people no salaries would be paid to directors until they were working with the sub sidiaries and not that no salaries would be paid to the officers of the Empire corporation. In regard to the amount paid by the offi cers. Judge Coshow said that he told prospects that the officers had eome in on the same basis as everyone else, meaning, that the officers bought the same kind of stock, paid the same price, and nald the same interest on their notes. The judge also told why he made statements to others and what he meant by these. In closing his direct examina tion. Walter Keyes, defense attor- ney. asked Judge Cosnow u an his dealings with the Empire Holding corporation had been in good faith. The question was ob jected to by Mr. Goldstein but Judge Walker allowed the witness to answer. Coshow stated that all his dealings had been ln good faith and that he had had confi dence in the corporatlon'a success. In the cross-examination. Judge Coshow was not certain about the actual date he had signed his con tract for 'his salary but was cer tain that it was in November 1930 and not prior to October 16. 1930 as testified by George Robi son. He also was indefinite about the date he was elected president of the holding company. He said that he was told that he was chos en as president because of his ability and Integrity and that he had never questioned this. Cosh ow stated that he thought he had signed his note after the permit to sell stock was granted but when shown the note which was dated November 14, 1130. said that was the date as the note was not back dated. Coshow, Goldstein la Verbal Clashes Throughout the cross-examination. Mr. Goldstein attempted to get Coshow to agree to state ments as he made them but -the judge evaded these and shaped his own answers. Just before the close of the session today, the court was enlivened by two verbal battles between Judge Coshow and Mr. Goldstein. On the first occasion, Judge Coshow said that he had testified before the grand jury after the stockholders' meeting which would place the date on De cember 8, 1930. Mr. Goldstein produced a waiver which was dated December 1 which was to show that Judge Coshow went be-" fore the grand jury on that date. The judge maintained his stand that he testified on December 8 and . continued to do so under Goldstein's - threat to have the foreman of the Marion county grand jury testify about the date Coshow went before the grand Jury.- ' The second action came when Goldstein was questioning Coshow about the statements made to Dave Shambrook. Coshow denied that he had told Shambrook that he had "put la dollar for dollar the same as you and the others' and Goldstein asked him If it was not true that when this conver sation took place he had only paid In $350. Coshow stated that at that time he had paid in $2000. When Goldstein attempted to prove Coshow was wrong by re ferring to Coshows note, he found that the first payment of $800 had been made in December 1930 and the second of $1200 had been made on January 8, 1931. This was several days before the con versation with Shambrook. - Joseph : Vollmer of Portland, successor of Dr. Clancy aa secre tary of the Empire Holding cor poration, testified -that copies of the reports made by Coshow at the sockholders meeting in De cember 1930 were missing-from the files. When Coshow took the stand, the defense introduced his personal copies of these -reports aad they were read to the jury. The morning session was taken up with Character witnesses 'and the reading of CoshoWs letters I which were missing from the files GOSH of the Empire company. ' " At the close of today's sessions. Judge Walker told the jury that court would be ln session Satur day which would indicate that the ease will -either go to the jury Saturday afternoon ' or Monday morning. In the Keller trial Walk er refused to give the case to the jury late Saturday afternoon but he has made no statement about this in this case. Coshow Identifies Sheaf of Letters Judge Coshow was called to the stand to identify a sheaf of carbon copies of letters written by him while president of the Empire Holding corporation. 'How did yon obtain these let ters." Goldstein asked. ' I directed my secretary to get them. the' judge answered. "Are these all the letters," ask ed Goldstein. . I assume so," was the reply. Why did you remove them from the files," he was asked. Because of a rumor. that came to me that they would be used against me; I didn't remember what the letters contained but X wanted them so I could submit them to my attorney. The judge waa then asked if he had notified the office that he had taken the letters and he replied in the negative. Walter Keyes, counsel for Co show, then began reading the let ters, one by one, to the Jury. General Setup of Company Outlined Without major variations the letters which had been written principally to men considered "prospects" for directors through the purchase of 320,000 Jn stock, affirmed these facts: That the Empire Holding cor poration was to have 25 directors, each holding 200 shares or more of stock. That each subsidiary corpora tion was to have 25 directors each owning 200 shares of Empire stock. That the stock was to sell for $100 a share, no-par stated, and that this price was to be increased as the sale went on. The first in crease was to bring the stock to $112.50; the next to $125; the final price was to range up to $150 a share. That shareholders who purchas ed at first were to get the lower price to compensate-them for the longer time their money was to be held by the company. That no bonus or promotion shares were to be Issued. L That the officers were receiving modest salaries. That uniform purchase require ments were asked of all stock buyers to wit. a down payment of not less than 25 per cent in cash and the balance of 115,000 oyer five years ln equal annual install ments with Interest at seven per cent on deferred payments. Payment of S5000 On Stock Assured Judge Coshow ln one of the let ters affirmed that he had paid $5000 cash as a first payment on his stock. He declared his own salary to be "modest" He reaf firmed again and again that' no bonus or promotion stock was be ing used and that all officers and directors had come into the com pany on the same footing. "The Empire Holding corpora tion offers a safe, sound invest ment" the Judge wrote. "I believe we are doing a service to the state in its formation. In time I fore see a-lucrative investment for all the shareholders. We shall treat the man with one share as well as the man with 200 shares, except that no one can be a director with out owning 200 shares of stock." In several of the letters the judge pointed out the value of sound first-mortgages to the com pany. He said that these were just as acceptable as cash since the securities would be needed by the Insurance companies when the latter bad been organised. In one of the letters read during the morning session the judge told a prospective buyer that the company had a permit to sell stock ln the state of Washington and was preparing to operate there. Scores of letters from the Judge to prospective buyers were read. Most of the men addressed were personal or political friends of the judge. They were scattered widely throughout the state. In -almost each Instance the writer tied his letter to the visit of an Empire Holding corporation salesman. Prospective buyers of the stock to whom -the Judge wrote, were urg ed to eome to see him in his office In Portland. The judge affirmed that he was not active personally in the sale of the stock although he did mention several trips made throughout the state to contact men he considered would be key members of the Empire organisa tion. Attorneys Keyes and Hayter, al ternating in reading the letters, took many hours throughout the day to lay the full file before the jurors. Barne.lt H. Goldstein, pro secuting attorney, made no oppo sition to the introduction of the testimony. Judge Coshow on the stand, to identify the letters, spoke clearly and forcefully. He made quick answers to the cross-questions of Goldstein and was vigorous in bis answers to questions by the pro secutor which Implied the Judge had removed the letters from the Empire's files to keep information from the grand Jury. The Judge denied this and-insisted he took the letters, as personal property, ln order to present a strong case In his own behalf.
