Continuation of the cross examin- J
ation of Judge Lucien B. Wright in
his disqualification hearing before
Referees Robert M. Ralney, featured
Saturday's session In the district
court room of Judge George W.
Clark.
Wright admitted the truth of many
of the statements made by witnesses
for tin- plaint iff. but denied all the
allegations of Mrs. T. H. Sturgeon
and Mrs. Boar man which Imputed to
him any fnanclal Interest In the re-
ctsion of the I^te Kolvtn case involv-
ing $4,000,000 worth of oil proper-
ties.
One of the startling features of
Judge Wrights testimony was his
statement that the firm of McDougle
and Lytle were not his attorneys in i
the case. Attorneys for the plain- j
tiff immediately sought to have the j
opposing attorneys ousted from the j
case as representing no party to the
suit. Judge Ralney ruled that since
Judge Wright had acquiesced in the
attorneys who were opposing hlH
disqualification they were in fact
his attorneys. He explained that it
was a coincidence only that his in-
terests coincided with those < f the
clients of McDougle and Lytle lu
the Lete Colvin case.
Judge Wright said that a man who
called himself Bob Goff had attempt-
ed to give him $5,000 during the
hearing of the case and that the man
had told him he could make $5,000
for Wright and $2,500 tor himself
out of the case. Wright declared
that he refused the offer and that
the reason he did not have Goff r-
rested for attempted bribery wan
that he did not realize at tirst the
exact nature of the case and that
