NEW TORK. June IS. The trial of the
offleers of the Amertoin Trteoe ceaapany ,
indicted for alleged coarrHrtcy under the
aatl-tmit ! > of this state , was rerunaefl
today. Theodore E. Allen as recalled by
the prosecution tad afli-d again concern
ing his suit agaiast the defendants at the
time of the formation of the no-called trust
lor pommls.sk > as taraed. as allest-d. ia bnng-
Jng the companies togtthtr. He dc-clared
that all differences had rlace l > eea amicably
a4jutted aa < 3 teat he was now on good
terms vlth all of them.
Aa attempt on the part of the prosecution
to bring out evidence as to the methods of
the trust prior to 15.SO was objected to by
Mr. Chojte and the objection wts FuetalneS
The -n-iiness. Mr. Alhn testified that in con-
trf.aJoa Mr. Duke , previous to the foriaa-
Uoa of the combination , told him it cost his
firm K'Ot ' for advertising in 15.S.S. Glnter
told him it cost his firm fEoO.W'O lor advertis
ing the same year. There was eome talk ts
to the remedy lor competition.
Upon crosr- < lamination the witness said
that the conf-olidatioB was formed for the
purptse of ewaomy in the manufacture of
cigarettes He had received a letter from
Allen Ginter on September C , 1SS9. in which
the firm stated that they were averse to
joining a trust in the literal meaning of
the ttrm. but if other companies were con
sidering a combination they might be in
duced to join in the plan Witness fetid that
the prisest price of cigarettes vas 15 per
cent ICES than it was -ahea the companies
were doing business independently.
Mr. Fuller requested that the witness pro-
dace in court tomorrow a letter which he re-
ctl\t3 from Einstein i Townstnd on May
" . liS > 7. asking him to lend his aid to the
prosecutionHe WEE also asktd to produce
a copy of the letter he seat in answer. Mr.
Fuller occupied more than an hour putting
questions relative to trade marks and their
value to manufacturers to the witnet * . all
of which was ruled out.
GAME OF FREEZE-OfT.
Peter Hauptnjann of the firm of Petei
Hauptmann k Co . dealers and Jobbers In to
bacco and cigars , was called after Mr. Allen
had become t-o wearied that he asked to b
excused for the day. Hauptmann firm does
business in St. Louis. He testified that pre
vious to lf.93 his firm handled about 15,003.-
000 trust cigarettes yearly , la 1E83 he bough :
clcarettes from the National Cicarette com
pany , and afier that tie American Tobaccc
company refused to fill his orders , claiming
that he had violated the agreement by w hich
the trust held the Jobbers. He went to the
5t Louis hetdquarttrs of the American To
bacco company and had a conversation wtt
Mr. Brown. The latter told him that he
must quit telling Admiral cigarettes or the
trust would quit selling him the goads o !
ite manufacture. Brown told him the Ameri
can Tobacco company Bold S7 or 9S per cent
of all tie cigarettes manufactured in the
country and did not tee why he would no :
sell trust geode exclusj-iely. He was told hj
Mr. Brown that if he stuck by the trust he
would fcfcll 22000.W > 0 cigarettes.
Witcts.8 WBE asked by District Attcmej
Olcott if he gave in to Mr. Brown and replied
that he did not. A letter seat to the wit
ness by the American Tobacco company was
offered in evidence and read It was to tht
effect that the company felt constrained tc
discontinue sending him further goods tx-
eept at n prices without discountXol
until June , 1K C , WES the witness able tt
purchase goois of the American Tobaect
company manufacture. Spot cash had al
ways been paid by him for the trut : goods
The trust not only refused to sell him to
bacco , but he also was not allowed to bu ;
goods from other firms in St. Louis thai

"
never was an agent of the trust. Witness
was still in the witness chair when the cas <
was adjourned until tomorrow morning.

having had the tight of &y for four da.vs.
and the etate commrnred the lairodurMcn
of evidence la rebuttal According to the
( ridtnce intifioced by Bartlrj. is vicwtsl
from his standpoint , th ? flate owes him
fXi'.PC'O. which he advanced from hii private
fortune in order to help the Mite out He
Introduced evidence wfairh vts claimed to
rhow that he had checked out of the Omaha
National bank J1OT.OM. which was trans
ferred to the Tirst National and Columbia
National of Lincoln , and that ha had placed
ia the Omaha National HH'.WIO to the credil
of tbe ttate. taking the money from bis o a
pocket , la this manner he accounts for
Ji'40.00 ( , or JSS" MO taoi e than the amout *
he is charged with embezzling , he ace the
Inference is that the stite is Indebted to
him for that amount ol tacney. This eii-
dence has beea Introduced in a mof la-
gealous way and in a manner calculated uo
befog the mind * of the Jury and leave tbenn
in doubt as to Just ( what waf done with tbs
money.
The rebuttal of this evidence to be intro
duced by the itate pismire * to be more
clorely ccntcs-ted thta was the introduction
of direct evidence , tnd several days wrliJ
undoubtedly be conrumfd before tbe evi
dence Ii all before the jory. Tbe state bu
yet to call its expert * , who haie checked up
Bartley's records , and the ho'test fight is
exj-ected on thii portion of the tai-e
Nearly all of the three hours of the morn
ing session of the tenth dtj of the Bartley
trial was or-cupicd by tbe 3-fense in at
tempting to pet before the Jury the record *
of tbe ttate treasurer's office , showing tbe
account of that office witb the thretbanka
in Lincoln which were stale dtpotltories dur
ing HH5 These banks -were'the Aaeri-caa
ExchaLgc National. Columbia National and.
Merchants * National banks and the defense
endeavored to establish , the fact that tbe full
amount of deposits o ! state rtmis to which
these banks were entitled unflea- their bond *
wa kept in them ar all times and that ,
therefore , Bartley was compelled to ure a.
Lincoln bank which was not a state depot ! ?
lory as a desiring house in order to iepam
remittances from county treasurers and dls- :
tribute them to authorized dep ! fitoric9
through this clearing house ia order to Irfp
the general fund and other etate funds tej -
arate , as required by the depontary law.
The contention of the d-tfente is that all
remittances tre received in , tie form ol
checks , drafts , pc&tal order * , etc. and that
tbe treasurer ii compelled to us ? some bank
as a clearing hoase in order to divide -these
remittances into the several funds covered by
them , and that th First National hank of
Lincoln was used for that purpose because
the authorized flepotiuirit-i had ell the money
they were authorised to receive-
All of this testimony was ruled out , the
ruling being based on tLe t-bjeciioas of tbe
state , to the efjfct that even if this wera
true , it could U ? no excuse for the treasurer
to remove the. moaey of tbe state from the
control of the fctate by putting it ia a private
bank , and that if it were ne cFary to ha\
a bank as a clearing house , one or more
of tbe state depositories should he.\e bttn
used for that purpose.
STATE SCORES A POINT.
Whea court opened ytrterdsy tbe dt-
fecfce put Banker Harwood on the stand
again and questioned him along a line in
tended to thowU.EI the "special" certifi
cates of dtparft had get-n uwd by Bartlty
to buy tbe bonds of utoe tni Saundwa
counties , which have tern introduced ia

Attorney GtntrU Smyth Interposed ca &V-
Jectioa to this line ol evidence , and ( .aid
the whole tendency of the testimony mugs.1
to be btougbt out by tbe defense wat > ta
diiclcte tn illegal trsnei.cUcn. and that It
simply fhowa that : f Bartley had u J
