Trial, and Argument

l"rer|ilont lilts between opposinrj
counsel and lite testimony of three
strong witnesses for the defen.se were
tlie features of yesterday's proceed- .
Ings in tlie trial In the United States
District Court, of the case of tho
government upulnst Oren Bur
roughs, the former slorekeeper-gaugct1
of i lie Broad ltoclt Distilling Com

with complicity in fraud against tho
government. At 5 o'cloek in the ;if

and both aides rested.

ns upon Thursday, the chief line of
the lawyers, for the defense was
directed ugulusl the incriminating
evidence of the little purple-covered
note book. In which, according to the
statement of eJthelbcrt Klmore on
Thursday, he kept a record of all the ,
.spirits manufactured at. the distillery. \

which the tux was dodged, and which

All three witnesses denied em- '
phutlcally under oath that any ir
rcgulutitios took place at the dis?
tillery, ur thrit they were at any time,
by any person, paid any money other
than that which was regularly liiie
them. All three asserted positively
that they had never before seen the
Klmore note book, and that thsy were
Ignorant of it-; contents.
.lohn M. Ulna, the tlrst witness cx
anilucd at tho afternoon session, still?
ed th.ii he was city salesman and col?
lector for th? distillery, as well as1
manager of the rectifying plant, lie'

sole "f the whiskey there manufactur-,
ed. deposited It n? his personal uc-j
count, nnd checked It over to Kl-j
more, who. he said, was general mail-,
tiger of the whole plant. Hi. knew ofl
no Irregular practices at the distillery j
and saw untiling to cause, him to sus-'
pect tii.it double distillations hud tak?
en place. Ha teslllled that ho was
present at ;> conversation between
i "la reiice B. Wood, owner of the dis?
tillery, and Kthelbcrt Klmorc, on De?
cember r.o. L?H, as a rosult of which
Klmorc was "'tired." According to the
witness. Wood called Klmore a thief,
coupled the sobriquet with something
more vigorous, and dared him to come
back on tno premises. Klmore, auld
the witness, rode off and never re?
nn tied.
Sljrued lilt. Xante In ><itc Unuk.
Questioned by Assisiant District At?
torney Itobert II. Tallcy, with regard
to the note book, witness asserted posi?
tively that hu never saw it before.
"It that Is so. Mr. Ilhoa," said Mr.
Talles-, "how ?In you account fur your
signature to u receipt entered upon one
of it.-, pages."' The signature was there,
und it lunkc.il like a poser. The Wit?
te--;.- looked at the book coolly and
handed it back with this remark:
"That's my signature, but 1 don't
|-( member the book. 1 took no notice,
of the book at the time 1 signed my
name there.'"
Mr. Talle;- commented ?n the strange
fiel that a business man of his calibre
would sign ills name in a book, the
purpose ,.f which was unknown to hlrn.
but the witness wan firm.
The signature was subscribed to a
list of what purported to be empty
barrels which Ithca had purchased for
tin- distillery, and for which he whs
paid by Klmore. Opposite the total,
.*ir..7,'.. was written the phrase "B
liquor."
Mr. Tallcy suggested thai it meant
that the barrels were intended to he
used ror "block" liquor, but did not
l>i'ci the point, his principal object
being to prove that the witness had
previous knowledge of the existence
of the book. Ithca declared that Hie
"B llf|uior" was an addendum, und
that it was not there when he signed
the receipt.

stated that no Irregularities could 1
take place ut tho distillery without i
his knowledge, and that none had I
taken place, lie had permitted no j
spirits to leave tho cistern room. It? i
said, without the required stamp.
Klmorc, he declared noyi r paid him
any rnoncty'. He never saw the !
mysterious little not. book before, '
and kept every account required by |
law accurately. If untaxpald aplrlts
were smuggled out ot the cistern
room, without his knowledge, the
discrepancy would at once show in
his records. Nothing- ol tin kind, in
