Jforgnn & Co. and the United States
Steel corporation. The government's
ense was closed with the testimony of
Lewis CnS8 Ledyurd.
Mr. Lcdynrd testified in detail as to
alleged telephones conversations in
l'cbrunryf 3913, with a person who
represented himself ns Mr. l'nlmer,
hut who, it is charged, was the de
fendant. The witness' testimony varied lit
tle from accounts already published

to havo J. P. Morgan employ Edward
Lnutcrbnch, a lawyer uud friend of
Lamnrs.
Mr. Lcdvard told of visits made to
his offica by Lnutcrbnch. Ho said
that ho had called ud licprcscntativc
Palmer and made sure for tho first
time that tho person who had been
talking to him over the telephone for

"Wo admit that nil these talks be
tween Mr. Ledynrd and nn unknown

and Mr. Lamnr," Lamar's counsel
said.
With this, District Attorney Mar
nhnll closed tho government's case.
He said that ho would havo called J.

attend the trial because of the death
of Temple Bowdoiu, a partner in the
Morgan firm.
Tho usual motions to dismiss the
indictment wcra denied.
Henry P. Davis, chief counsel for
Lnmnr, then announced thnt he would

NEW YOHIC, Dec. 2. Oscar S.
StruuK, n member of Tho Hague trib
unal, and former heeretarv of com
merce and labor in U0 cidiinet of
President Koohcvclt, denied today a
report thnt ho had just resigned from
the Japan society because he sym
pathized with Germany, with whom
Japan is at war.
"This statement is utterly fnlse,"
said Mr. Straus. "I resigned from
tho Japan society a month ago, as I
did from a number of organizations.
I did so because I wanted to cut off
all unnecessary e.cusc and vote the
money thus saved to tho relief of
ihoso who suffered as tho result of
tho war."
Mr. Straus pointed to interviews
granted by him in London last Au
gust, and upon his return to this
country to disprove the statement
that he is pro-German.
