THAT MOODY CASE Plain Statement of the Case Made by Judge Pipes Transaction Open and Above Board, But Moody Had Nething: to Do With It Increased Interest. Ilorald, Nov. 17th: Tho nudionco Inst evening nt tho evangollstlc ser vices at Uio First Christian church was oven beyond expectation. Tho auditorium was flllod with peoplo, who gavo tho host of attontlon to tho sor vlcos by Evangelist Lockhart. Ono moro was added to tho church, making six In tho two days of tho special ser vice. Itov. T. S. Handsackor, of Car vallls pleased all with his tendor sing ing. Thoro has novor been an evan gollstlc sorvlco In Albany that has awakened such Interest In tho snmo length of time. Tho trial of Hon. Malcolm A. Moody began in tho federal court at Fort land yostorday. Judge Pipes made tho statement for tho defense, to' the jury, in part, as follews: "This Is not tho first timo that Mr. Moody has been mado tho victim of tho persecution of some one who has sought to cast ignomy upon his good name. I will toll you tho whole story and show you what conspiracy he has been made the victim of. "In May, 1897, Ma Moody was In tho hanking business In The Dalles. A bank oxamlncr walked in and told him to closo his doors. Mr. Moody knew that his bank was solid, ho told tho oxamlncr so, and asked for 12 hours to provo to him that his estab lishment was not insolvent. The ox- amlnor rofuscd tho request. Did that oxamlnor get his alleged information about tho Insolvency of tho bank from tho depositors and stockholders .of tho institution? No, ho got it from Mr. Moody's compotltlors in tho bank ing business. Mr. Moody was forced to closo his doors, and by somo means a man from a competitlvo bank was appointed rccolvcr. This man got $2000 a year to handle Mr. Moody's business. Whon ho handled It unfair ly and Mr. Moody tried to get tho ad ministration of his own affairs that It might bo done properly, this man was kept thoro. Tho man whoso name Is signed at tho bottom of this indict ment as roceiver principally, I sup pose becnuso ho recoived his salary Is tho man at tho bottom of this perse cution and conspiracy against the fair namo of Mr. Moody. That namo Is H. a. "Wilson. "Now, in relation to tho charges contained In this document. Mr. Hall has told you soma of .tho facts; but ho omitted somo important fc4tiircj,,j "Whon theso lettora from the con troller of tho 'currency came, tho post master requested. Mr. Moody to assist him In- redirecting them. Mr. Moody did th'ls atthe request of tho post master. Ho dfd not have tho ad drosses of somo of the parties, and took sonic of tho letters homo with h'lm to redirect them. Wo will show that ho sent theso letters to all parts of tho Btate, and yott will havo the privilege of reading letters ho wrote in his earnest endeavor to locato tho parties to whom' the letters should go. Theso letters he wrote will show, that ho informed the parties that a final settlement had been made, and that ho was anxious to have every ono ro colvo what was due htm. "Mr. Moody learned that Mrs. Con roy had moved to Alblna, and when ho came to Portland to attend tho President's reception, he secured her addross and cnlted her up by 'phono. Ho told her that her papers had como, and that a final dividend had been declared He made an appointment to meet her tho next day, but overslept himself, and barely had tlmo to catch his train. As soon as he reached The Dalles he telephoned to Mrs. Conroy explaining why ho had not seen her, and asked what ho should dC about the matter. She told him that Bhe was coming to The Dalles tho fol lowing day, and would seo him. "Wo will show that she wanted to havo her cortlflcato cashed, and, that In response to her desire, Mr. Moody informed her that ho could get Mr. Vogt to cash It for hor at Its face value, with Interest, If sho would nc- copt that settlement. Sho ngrccd, and Mr. Moody agreed to compute tho In terest for her. He then gavo hor n noto to Mr. Vogt, and Mr. Vogt of- fored her tho money for hor certifi cate, but sho requested a draft on tho Portland exchange, and recolvod It. Having cashed tho cortlflcato, she by that act assigned It to Mr. Vogt, and, In ordor for him to sccuro his money upon It, It was necessary for him to sign it. This ho did. "But It appears that Mr. Wilson went to hor, and Inquired If sho had recoived hor payment. When she said yes, ho asked whera Sho said that Mr. Moody had gotten It cashed for hor. Then Mr. Wilson was very sollcltpiiB to know how much sho had recolvod. When told tho amount he Immediately made her think sho had been robbed. Straightway ho wont to Mr. Moody and told him that Mrs. Conroy was dissatisfied. Mr. Moody told him that If she was ho would got hor certlflcato back forhorv pro. vlded ah, would rclum tho draft she had received. This was done. "Opened Letter In' Her' Presence. 'Wo Will provo that Mr. Moody opened tho letter containing tho ro colpt or alleged receipt, for It was unsigned, and of no value to any one until signed In tho pfosenco of Mrs. Conroy, and sho signed it. Ho start, cd to put it Into a tetter to mail It, but she, In the excitement caused by Wilson alleging that Mr. Moody had tried to rob her, took it from him and mailed it herself. And sho got hor mfoney. i "Now Vogt had signed tho certifi cate which ho cashed for her, and, of course, whon sho reclaimed it, it was not his, and he scratched his name from It. "The dlfferenco in tho nmounts, as we will show, Is accounted for by the dlfforenco in tho computation of In torost on tho wholo amount of $2000 which Mrs. Conroy had on deposit, and not on tho final payment. Tho greatest demand. controller figured tho interest at 8 ..Tho wagC3 nro vory much per cent, and for a month longer than I . . . . . - WH sho should havo been allowed, as wo.than ,n thls C0Untry Womca will show.
