he did not know who sent it. but
"supposed It came from Thomas."
Notwithstanding the large sums thus
paid In commissions none of the firms
had kept any record of the amounts, I1'
according to the witnesses. . All pay. . s'
jncnta were made in New York
Several officials of the Hurllngmn 1

company, and their testimony devel-
oped the fact that the vouchers for 11
the amounts had disappeared.
The government rested their side of f'
the rase in the afternoon, when Judgo
O. M. Spencer, for the defendants
filed a demurrer In all the cases, ar- n
guing that no evidence hnd been pro- w
duced to show a case of pir.t.•>,
and even if such evidence had been
presented the oourt lacked jurisdiction
as the alleged crime was committed In ,
New York and not in Misaoui i. He
asked that the < aso of Crosby be dis-
missed Judge Smith Mcpherson over-
ruled the motion as to Crosh> nd said
that argument on the demurrer would
be had tomorrow morning, to which
time the court adjourned.
