Com- pany, of Watertown, Wla., was com- menced today before United States Commissioner Hitchcock. The defen- dant was represented by his counsel. Messrs. Morgan and Seabury'anda third lawyer, Mas Steuer. who con- ducted the examination. Assistant United States District At- torney Wise conducted the prosecution for the Government. United States i strict Attorney Bur— nett was present a person but took little part in the examination. The attendance was coniined princi- pally to neWspaper men and a few spectators. Several men said to be either post oIIlce lnspectators or cm- ployes of the government. were pre- sent. Counsel for Beavers said they did not expect to have Postmaster- General present in person and that the subpoena served upon him was merc- ly for the production of certain of- dciul papers. When the case was begun Post Oiiice inspector Little was called to the stand for the purpose of identifying the dc- fondant. Mr. Wise asked the inspector ii the George W. Beavers present was the same George W. Beavers named in the indictment. Before the witness could not know it except by hearsay. The lawyers argued the point (or some time. but the witness was finally per- mitted to answer the question In the afllrmstive. Mr. Steuer then moved to dismiss the proceedings on the ground that the facts are alleged in the com— plaint were insumcient and that no proof had been presented in support of the indictment and complaint as re- quired by law. This point was raised on the first arraignment of the prisoner under the indictment for complicity in the postal scandals also. Mr. Steuer read a number of decis- ions lu support of his contention. The law. he declared. demanded that when i defendant was arraigned. the govern. meat was bound to produce proof of the crime, regardless of the certiil copy of the indictment and complaint based on the indictment. which was 'IOI legal proof. WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-—lii accor- dance with n derision of Acting At- torney—General Hoyt declaring void the subpoena served on the Postmaster- General yesterday to appear at the hearing in New York today in the Beavers case the Postmaster-General has designated inspector Lawrence intherman as his representative at that hearing. The opinion of Mr. Hoyt follows: "My advice to the Postmaster-Gen- eral is that, while i do not think. on fundamental grounds. under all the cir- cumstances of the case the United States Commissioner has any warrant in law for issuing this writ to be serv- ed outside of his district. on the whole i believe the proper course (or the Postmaster-General to pursue is to send a trusted employs of the depart- meat to New York to appear before the Commissioner and to state formally to the Commissioner (it called upon) on behalf of the Postmaster-General that the PostmasteFGcncral declines to produce any of the government records and documents called for whatsoever!“ Postmaster-General Payne said today comply with the subpoena in any event. The subpoena called for papers. documents and records covering years of operation of the department These papers are in constant use in connec- tion with the investigation of the Postal service and are scattered throughout the country in the hands of the inspectors. —‘-—s—‘-——~—_ DOORKEEPIRS’ CIRCLE’I FALL WORK.
