With King Says '
Senator G. D. Gaff

NEW YORK—Although be ac-
cepted on the stand today responsi-
bility for allowing the 57.000000
American Metal company claim in
1921. United States Senator Guy D.
Goff was pictured by the govern-
ment as a marionette moved about
on the political leta‘go by subordi-
nates at the direction of Harry iii.
Daugherty. '

Senator Goff. new a represents,
tivo of West Virginia in theScnatc.
took the stand -as the second de-
fense witness in the trial of Daugh-
erty and Thomas w. Miller for con-
spiring- to defraud the government
of their best service in allowing the
Metal company claim for assets im-
pounded during the war. Daugh-
erty 'at that time was attorney-gen-
eral and Miller was alien preperty
custodian. Gel! was assistant to ‘the
attorney-general in charge of A. P.
C. matters in Daugherty’s depart-
ment.

Goff denied that Q to the time he

the impounded property. he had
ever discussed the claim ' with
Daugherty. Miller, Jesse w. Smith
or John ‘1‘. King. The government
charges that by using as bribes part
of the "(1.000 fee given him by
Merton to obtain approval of the
claim. King had persuaded Daugh-
erty and Miller to give their appro-
val. "reaching" from them through
Smith. Daugherty's political handy-
man.

"You signed these papers because
you had come to thedndependent
conclusion that the claim was
valid?" Steuer asked.

“I did,"

United States Attorney Buckner
then took.the witness and elicited
from him that much of his knowl-
edge about the Merton claim came
to him through Adnah R. Johnson.

Fifth Arrest In

There were five. And the fifth por-

the investigation.

Senator Simpson last night said
his side. Chief Patrick Hayes. had
told him the man to be arrested was
a member of the murder party and
not simply a material witness.

The senator t in morning asked
for separate tria for' the four de-
fondants already under indictment:

“Solved" The Case

Whether he will ask for imme-
diate trial or not depends on the
work of detectives who are check-
ing up on the statements made by
Henry 1.. Dickman. former state
trooper of New Jersey. Dickman has
said he worked on the case after
everybody else had quit. that he
solved it. and that he took a bribe
to leave the state. He is under ar-

"No. he hasn't." .Faith laid down

“Well!" Cherry pushed back her
chair and psttered around the table
in her heellees slippers. to put her
arms preteetlngly around her moth-
er. "I must say that's a fine way
for you to talk. Faith Lnnel You're
always giving the 'Hall. Columbia'

George Pruitt hang around you day

tion of marrying him. Practice what
you preach. saintly Miss Faith!
isn't that right, Muggy?"

"You‘re being ridiculous. Cherry."
Faith controlled her voice with dif-
dculty.

"Just what are you and George
going to do today?" Cherry came

slippers. to sit on Faith's neatly
mad. bed.

“I told you—drive over to Sulphur
Springs. We'll get there about one
o'clock—it's forty miles you know.
We'll have lunch there. George is
going to sketch a while. and then
we'll have a swim in the lake, and
