"If we do this Will you stand pat'" and he answered ' Yes ', then he said to one of the other men, ' Will you stand p a f ' to which this man answered ' yes ' I looked over the partition In the toilet room which separated me from these men, for the purpose of seeing who they were, and I saw the three men. Last May when I saw that the chief of police was in trouble over certain alleged disclosures of certain swindlers, I connected this with the conversation that I had heard and wrote Colonel Amfe about It I came to Mlnsneapolls on June 16 at the request ot his attorneys to see if I could Identity the men who carried on this conversation I went to Judge Harrison s courtroom where oue of the trials was m progress, and without having him pointed out to me, I immediately recog nised L Q Grossman as the man who had carried on the principal ^art of the con versation above referred to 1 was unable to get a good opportunity to see Wm Edwards and therefore am not now certain whether he was one of the three men, and I under stand that Charles Howard was not in the courtroom when I wasi preeeht I expected to be present at the trial of Colonel Ames and was requested by wire on July 4 to be in Minneapolis the next day, but my business made it impossible for me to oome, and I stated over the telephone to Mr Ames' attorneys that I would be present on Monday, July 7 They also wired me on July 5 to be sure to be present on July 7, and I intended to be there, but missed my train and on Monday morning wired the at torneys that I Ih&d missed m,* train* hut would be there Tuesday morning I came Tuesday morning, although I understand that the court refused to hold the case to await my arrival. I do not know Oolonel Ames and nevw saw him until yesterday, when I came here to at tend the trial 1 did not kne any of his. attorneys and never saw any of them until yesterday, except that Mr Hubachek called upon me on June 14 at Moorhead in amswer to the letter I had written to Colonel Ames, and asked me to state what I knew about the matter and I then related to him the facte as above set forth. - A J RUBtad Minneapolis, July 9.
