oughly honorable man.
Geneial Iodie paid he d.d not consider
Major Richmond at fault for the conditions J beehive in
that had existed. "It is the duty of an
officer to obey the orders of his superiors

out stopping to uuestion their legality."
said the general. In cross-examination he
raid he did not consider that Major Rich

similar during their terms of office as
durlau the administration of Chief Rich
mond and that the same etera of assess
ing the gambling houses and the women of
the town waa in vogue during their terms.
City Clerk Casady was examined as to
the records to show that all moneya re
ceived by the chief of police passed through '
his hands, and from him to the city treas
urer. Tony Jensen. Chrla Kretchmer, E. J.
Brant and Jim Hansen were placed on the
stand in rebuttal of the testimony of Rob
