show it to MR. BLACK. I showed him the club and the envelope. I turned them over to MR. PIERCE, the paper intendent of our agency. I don't know where he is - nor MR. HAASFIELD either.

JOHN FINLEY, sworn for the defendant,
I was formerly master machinist and assistant superintendent of the pencil factory. I have known MR. FRANK about five years. His character was good.

CROSS EXAMINATION. I am now superintendent for Jettler Bros. They are not related to the FRANKS. I left the pencil company about three years ago.

I generally kept one key and we kept one key in the office. The rule was to lock it and keep one key in the office. It has been left unlocked. The elevator doesn't make much noise that I know of. It doesn't shake the building, not when I was there. The wheels on the top floor are closed in on the 4th floor. You might be able to see them on the 4th floor if you stand on the west side of the elevator. They didn't make any noise. The power box don't make any noise.

REDIRECT EXAMINATION. The motor makes a tremendous noise. You can hear it and the shafting anywhere in the building.

A.D. GREENFIELD, sworn for the defendant,

They have not put in any new floor on the second story of the building. I have known MR. FRANK four or five years. His character is good.

CROSS EXAMINATION. I have come in contact with MR. FRANK in business him twenty or thirty times during the past five years. I have not
