STATE'S EXHIBIT S.

Portion of the affidavit made by Lemmie Quinn for Solicitor
Dorsey as follows:-
"The doors that lead up to the back stairs, after work hours
are locked, but this door at the back of my department, the lock
had been broken off and we placed a bar across it. The idea of
that was to keep employees from the fourth floor going down from
that department and ringing out and getting their money before it
was ready. Customarily it was closed. That was the purpose.
There is no exit from the office floor to the street floor, ex-
cept by the stairway from the office to the street floor, and
the elevator, and above there is a stairway leading from the office
floor to the metal room, which makes it impossible for anybody to go
from the upstairs down to the office floor. A man on the office
floor could lift the bar and walk out, but I should not think that
a man could come down to the office floor from above at all....
I went uptown when I left home between 12 and 12:20. I got
to the pool room about 12:30.... Mr. Frank said he didn't know
that he would mention it, but he would mention it to his lawyers and
see if they thought it was favorable to mention it. That must
have been Wednesday of last week."

STATE'S EXHIBIT V.

Portion of the testimony of H. I. Selig before coroner's in-
quest as follows:-
"As to who else was present, my wife and his wife. They went
to the opera before, probably, dinner was over, before he and I
left. I stayed in the house. There was no one else there when
he got there except me and my wife and him and his wife. The
servant was there also. I am speaking about dinner time. I sat
down a little while after dinner. I am sure about that. It was
dinner time. The telephone is in the dining room. Mr. Frank stayed
in the little telephone room, I don't know exactly how long he
was there."
