"I thought so." A With a few other remarks as to his Inability to recall having written the certificate when on the stand Judge Sams bowed and left the stand. Mr. Boone's Vote Rejected. The first witness was Charles H. Boone, who testified as to his membership and ballot.

Mr. Boone's ballot. was rejected by the judges, It was brought out, and Mr. Straus, attorney for the Shearer faction, attempted to bring out a point from Mr. Boone which Mr.

Poe objected to. "You cannot count the ballots that have been rejected," said Mr. Poe. "If the Court finds that all the ballots rejected because of some technical reason were In reality valid, in my opinion, Mr. Poe, they can be recounted," said Mr.

Straus with some emotion. A few heated words followed on this point, wheii Mr. Poe arose and said "It appears to me, Mr. Straus, that you are contemptuous in acting that way." "Far be it for me to be contemptuous, Mr. Poe," said the Attorney-General sub-duedly.

"I hope this case will develop no disagreement between us." Mr. Frederick C. Gutman, 508 Chestnut Hill avenue, was next placed on the stand. He said that three years ago he resigned as a member of the society. In March, he said, Agent Harris asked him to sign a proxy, which he said he refused to do.

"The defendants say, Mr. Gutman," said Mr. Straus, "that you gave your signature to papers and made payments. Is this so?" "No, I have never paid any dues," he replied. Mr.

TIppett Slfrned Proxy. A heated argument arose over the ques tion of whether counsel for a corporation has the prerogative of signing a proxy. Mr. R. B.

TIppett, counsel for the Schwlnd Quarry Company, testified that he signed a proxy for the president of the company. Mr. Poe said the proxy was illegal if the corporation seal jwas not on the proxy signed.by the firml Mr. Straus was overruled on four points when he attempted to question Mr. Tippett as to how he signed the proxy.

Mr. Straus contended that the vote of Mr. TIppett was valid, as he was instructed by a member of the firm to sign the proxy. "No' outside influence has the right to sign a proxy for a corporation. This is an elementary principle of law, Mr.

Straus," said Mr. Poe. "This agent of, the corporation had no right to execute that paper without the corporation's seal." "Was the president of the company in the office when you signed the proxy?" asked Judge Dobler, "Yes," answered Mr. TIppett. "And it never occurred to you to have him sign the document?" I thought I had a proper right to do so." "Well, you ''ftake a mistake, Mr.

TIppett," said Judge Dobler. "I think the proxy was properly rejected. Ex-Mayor Timanus Gets Off Easy. Ex-Mayor E. Clay Timanus was then called.

He said that he had made several contributions for ambulances or something. He could not remember just what the contributions were for. He said he gave the proxy to Mr. J. Spencer Clark.

He was not cross-examined. After having resigned two years ago, Mr. Henry Muir. testified that in March he was telephoned to by Mr. Clark that he was still a member and had the privilege of voting.

He gave a proxy. Mr. John Glenn, could not remember distinctly anything about the election. He remembered talking with Dr. Whitridge and telling him that he would vote for him.

Mr. Wyatt G. Noltlng, the architect, said that he gave a proxy to Mr. Douglas H. Thomas.

He said he did not pay his dues and did not authorize Mr. Thomas or anyone else to do so for him. He is accredited with paying. his dues. Mrs.

Blackwell Couldn't Remember Attired in pink and wearing a dainty hat, Mrs. Josiah L. Blackwell went on the stand. She said she had been a member of the society for a number of years. She said she gave two proxies to Miss Shearer one for herself, which she signed, and another for her husband, also a member which he She Instructed Miss Shearer to pa up her dues some days before the election, when she was about to leave for New York.

On the day of the election it was discovered that the dues were not paid and she made an effort to pay them herself. She was too late, however, and her proxy and that of Mr. Black-well were rejected. "Mrs. Blackwell, can youremember the date that you sent your proxies to Miss Shearer?" asked Mr.

Poe, on cross-examination. "I cannot," she replied. "Was it the latter part of March or earlier part?" "Mr. Poe, I do not recall when I sent them to Miss Mr. Poe tried to get the witness to recall the day, asking numerous questions.

Mr. Straus pleaded with Judge Dobler to interfere, as he felt the examination was unduly grilling. Mr. Poe remained silent and, believing that he was through with his cross-examination, Mr. Straus asked him if he was.

"I am not sure whether I am through or not," Mr. Poe said sharply. "It appears to me, Mrs. Blackwell, that you are trying to evade the question," he said, looking straight at the witness. "I am surprised at you, Mr.

Poe," she said, with some emotion. "I am- telling you the truth, and I came here merely to tell about the proxies. I -will not answer other questions." Mr. Poe was unable to get the date, and Judge Dobler requested that he end his questions on that point. Mr.

Robert Kinnier said he signed three proxies. The Whitridge side got two of them, but he said he had them revoked when he signed another and gave it to Miss Shearer. Mr. B. Baker For Peace.

Mr. Bernard N. Baker said that he and Mrs. Baker had been members of the society for a number of years. His secretary had been instructed to pay their ues, but he authorized Miss Shearer to pay some dues that were In arrears in March.

He said he was appointed a member of the peace committee and that, with Messrs. Douglas Gordon and Charles Weber, the other lie reported that another board should be appointed. The question was then asked whether Mrs. Baker had been paying dues as a member as long as was stated. Mr.

Poe's books did not show that she had, but Mr. Straus said that his books were not misquotations, but true. Wired To Texas For Proxy. The way both sides hustled to get votes was shown when Dr. Thomas W.

Sprank-lin said he received a telegram while in Mercedes, Texas. He did not get back to Baltimore in time to vote. His son, Dr. John W. Spranklin, voted for him.

The son said that several years ago he became a member of the society and also made his father a member. He said he wanted control two votes and that-he paid his father's dues. He signed proxy. SUES BREWING COMPANY Saloonkeeper Asks Court For An Injunction. Henry S.
