0F SPECIA'I'ORS
IN FALLON CASE
Action Follows an Up-
roar Aftcr Witness
Tells Story of AI-
leged “Persecution”
NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-—The at-
tempt of Ernest Eidlits. former con-
fidential man to William J. Fallon.
to dispose of “his story" to New
York newspapers, was detniled fur-
ther in testimony introduced in
Fallon's trial on the charge of jury
bribing, before Federal -District
Judge McCllntic yesterday.
After Todd Goodwin. a represen-
tative of the Daily News. had des-
cribed in detail a visit to Eldlitz
when he was
spouse to a communication Eidlltz
sent his paper. Jerome A. Jacobs. an
attorney of 163 West Forty-second
street. took the stand.
He told of the details of a confer-
ence at his office in which Joseph
Pani. restaurant proprietor. is al-
leged to have said that the Govern-
ment was persecuting Fallon.
Spectators Orda-ed Out
Jacobs's positive and aggresrixe
answers and his objections to As-
sistant District Attorney V‘Millard
cutting him short in his response.
provoked such a. demonstration of
approval in the court room that
Judge McClintic. palpably angered,
ordered the entire spectators‘ sec-
tion cleared.
About 100 persons. chiefly younv
men. were obliged to vacate their
seats and remove themselves from
the court room. W‘hen they created
an uproar in the corridors. marshals
drove them from the building.
Goodwin testified during this ox-
amination tbst Eidlitz said in Mon-
treal that if his story were publish-
ed it would exorerate Fallon in the
Fuller & McGee case.
In continuing his treatment about
what. Paul had said in his presence
Jacobs said that I’ani had always in-
sisted that he could not testify. Mr.
Jacobs then corroborated the testi-
mony of Pierce Mulroyey regarding
the banquet, which Pant was to hold
and which he feared would be raid-
cd by the dry officials.
Further. however, l’ani had told
that he was promised the return of
liquor seized at the “'oodmanstcn
lnn if he would testify against Fai-
lon. according to the the witness.
Mr. Jacobs said he had been a
lawyer for fouriecn years and had
known Fallon for several years.
Then Mr. Millard bcgan cross-ex—
aminntion.
“Have you ever been
asked the prosecutor.
_ Fallon Raises Objcction
Immediately Mr. h‘ullon raised an
objection and called the attention or
the court to the fact that such a!
question had been held a. fatal. re-
versible error. He said he was will-
ing that the witness be asked if he
had ever been convicted.
Mr. Jacobs said that he was will-
ing to answer the question and said
the he had been arrested. lie chang-
cd this in the next breath and said.
"No. I was'nt arrested 1 was indict-
ed and afterwards acquitted of the
charge."
Mr. Jacobs was tried for collusion
in a. divorce case.
“I want you to know. Mr. Millard.
I was innocent." he said.
Tcstifies to Conversations.
“’alter J. O'Neill, former examin-
er and confidential man in Camp-
trolicr Craig's office, was a witness
for I-‘allonplle testified to a remark—
able scrles of conversatiOns which he
said he had with Fallon's former
confidential clerk, Ernest Eidlitz. in
which Eidlitz. he testified. had ad-
mitted that he had lied about Fal-
lon's case and desired to make a
confession.
The witness said that Eidlitz had
met. him in the Capitol Theatre and
had importuncd him to arrange a
meeting for him with Fallon.
"I want to have a. talk with Fai-
lon." he said Eidlitr remarked. “I've
lied about him in the case. If you
would only tell Bill how sorry I am
for what I‘ have done."
Eidlits's Reported Talk
"A great many people think.” he
said Eidlitz told him. “that Fuller
and McGee were a couple of double
crossing bums who were trying to
make a. goat of Fallon after he had
gone the limit for them."
Eidliu informed him according to
Goodwin, that he felt he had treat-
ed Fallon unjustly and that he could
set him right by newspaper publica-
lion.
The story of Fuller and McGee
and its ramifications. would star-tie
..sw York. Failon's former confi-
dential man told him. Asked by Fax-
ion if Eidlitz bad in his conversa-
tion said anything about
her of life of Fuller and
while in Federal custody on Gover-
nors Island. the witness replied
"Yes.".
Told of Women Visitor's.
Eidlits told him. Goodwin said.
that. the two confessed bucket snop
operators while in custody. were vis-
ited by women and that on special
occasions. like holidays. wine was
sent to them.
