called by th defense u a witness,
wag dismissed when the court sus
tained the state's objection to his
testimony on the grounds It would be
a rerealment of grand Jury.
Grlevc'i Testimony Brief.
The Jury waa excused, while Attor
ney Newman for the defense made a
proffer of proof. The defense of
fered to show by Orleve that Deputy
District Attorney Nielson hBd told
the grand Jury "the Investigation ot
the ballot theft was la the hands of
the etat and federal authorities, as
ballots cast in a national election had j
been stolen."
Grieve was on the stand less than
five minutes, and his testimony was
brief.
C. Jean Conners, Tlce-presldent and
parliamentarian of the ''Good Gov
ernment Congress," and known as
"bright boy" of the organization, tes
tified to. and admitted his participa
tion In the ballot theft as In pre
vious trials. Conners with Wilbur
Sexton, crawled. Into the vault and
passed out the ballot pouches the
testimony showed.
Conners, under cross-examination,
testified that he saw . Schermerhorn
about 7:35 o'clock, near the sheriff's
door In the rear, and that he had a
flashlight In his hands.
Conners Claims Clemency ntnt.
Conners admitted he had signed
two statements, and claimed discrep
ancies in them, but was unable to
point out In what vital particular.
He claimed he was given thinly veiled
hints of Immunity, by officers, which
prompted his statements. He claimed
his mother waa told, "you have noth
ing to worry about; your boy will
never go to the penitentiary.' and
that the officers said "we are not
after you kids; we want the leaders,
who put you up to It."
Attorney Moody asked Conners
once: "See if you can answer this
question without making a speech?"
Newton C. Chaney testified that
he was around the courthouse the
night of the ballot robbery. Chaney
denied that he had been In the
county Jail early in the evening, or
that he had a conversation with Fehl
and Schermerhorn on the sotith side.
Chaney said he saw Fehl coming from
the southwest corner and Just said
"hello and that Fehl seemed to "be
bothered about something." Chaney
denied that he had had a talk with
Chuck Davia, Fehl and Joe pan lets,
when watches were compared at 9:5.
Chaney aatd he came to the court -house
about 0 o'clock and remained
an hour.
State witnesses testified that Cha
ney was present at a Jail conference,
and that Chaney and Fehl and Scher
merhorn had talked on the south side
of the courthouse.
Conference Held,
C. W. (Chuck) Davis, who entered
a plea of guilty, testified that he had
not seen Schermerhorn on the night
of the ballot robbery. O. O. Clancy,
a Jail Inmate, testified that Davis.
Schermerhorn, Glenn and Brecheen
had conferred In the Jail a short time
before the robbery.
Robert Bell, Jsnltor, testified that
Schermerhorn was not In his office
about 10 o'clock as Burley Sexton
testified, and differed with Deputy
District Attorney Nellaon on minor
details and the time when the ax
was found In the basement.
Charles Mornlngstar, fireman, tes
tified that he was present in the base
ment when the search for evidence
In the ashes was started and that
Schermerhorn had instructed him to
give the state police and city police
assistance.
J. Frank Wortman of Phoenix, fore.
man of the La Dteu Jury that return
ed a verdict of guilty, J. A. Perry,
fruitgrower and banker, A. C. Hub
bard, merchant, and Dr. J, A. Gltzen,
next door neighbor of Schermerhorn "a,
testified to his good reputation for
truth and law-abiding qualities. All
had known the defendant for many
years, and admitted, under state
questioning that they had not made
Inquiries about bis reputation since
the ballot thefts became a subject of
public discussion. The court ruled
that the testimony should apply only
to the period before the ballot rob
bery. Square Horse Trader.
Dr. Gltzen caused laughter when
he testified, "Schermerhorn waa a
square shooter In a horse trade, and
that's what counts in that business."
Mrs. Shelly, a kin of Schermerhorn,
testified that Schermerhorn came
home to supper on the ballot robbery
night about seven o'clock, and came
home for the. night shortly after 11
o'clock.
Attorney T. J. Enrlght testified that
he had an appointment with Scher
merhorn on the ballot theft night,
but had been unable to keep It. The
state asked one question of Enrlght
that he had been counsel for a
number of the defendants.
Most of the defense testimony was
for the purpose of refuting salient
points In the state's case.
