Cox, 25, from him, when the story of Frisch's refusal was told. It is the government's contention that McKay and Graham furnished the "ready cash" in $1,000 bills to pay off the victims. "I recall," said Fuctscih, "that McKay brought 61 thousand-dollar bills into the bank to pay off one of the victims.

This was $1,000 more than was called for, and McKay wanted Frisch, the cashier, to keep it for his services, but Prison refused it." Withstands Cross-Quiz Taafr carried Fuetsch laboriously through details of the swindling of Miss Kathryn Beeson, wealthy member of a and New York steel family, and transactions involved in frauds on Mary and John Callahan of Roshester, N. and others who according to the government, were the swindling ring's "suckers" to the tune of more than $1,000,000 in the course of two years. The cross-examination failed to out any contradictions in Fuetsch's testimony that McKay furnished tns cash by which the victim's stocks and securities allegedly were converted into cash which the victims later gave the swindlers. Payment Promptly Made The trial dragged through the morning session, enlivened only by an occasional clash between attorneys. Fuetseh explained that it would have been impossible to send the swindle victims' stocks to New York to sell it there, and receive the money back in Reno, in anything less than five days.

Yet, he testified, the victims as a rule, received the cash for their stock within 24 hours after it was turned in to the Riverside Bank. Bank Layout Shown Defense counsel introduced blue prints of the bank to demonstrate that Fuetseh could not have sasn McKay counting out the $110,000 he is charged with putting up in order to complete the $177,000 swindling of Miss Beeson. Fuetseh had insisted he saw McKay pay the money to Frisch. in the bank's vaults. The defense attempted by diagrams to show that he could not have seen such an incident from his cage.

Taafs ended his cross-examination at 3:10 p. m. and George R. Pfann, assistant United States district attorney, undertook the redirect questioning. Under Heavy Guard Pfann had Fuetech bring out further details in the bank's transactions and testimony that the cashier had been heavily guarded by government agents oh'his way from Reno to New to testify at the 'trial.

Fuetseh recalled his previous declaration that, in his opinion, Frisch the long missing manager, had been "taken for a ride" because he "knew too much" about the alleged swindling operations.
