f '20 Tlffi BEE. OMAHA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 19K f TAYLOR ASKS FOR NEW TRIAL Hearing of Motion Will Be Saturday in District Court. BROME EEMEMBERS QARD It r mil that Jnror Win Onrr-n Cli ent of I1U anil "W'onilrm "Wlir Conncll IJId Not Asccr tnln h" Tnct. Affidavits, signed by Cadet Taylor. Drome & XJrome, lawyer, and .W. C. l'rufier, who Is In their employ, were filed In district court In preparation for the hearing today of Taylor's motion for a new trial of his suit OKSinet Tho Hoe. Clinton IJrome, the youngest of tho law firm, tells tho court that ho know during tho preliminary examination of Jurors that Wesley dart, the man who after ward claimed to have been offered a bribe, was his client, and asserts that he wondered that Attorney ,Conncll for The Deo did not bring out this fact. Unrd lieeamo a member of the Jury, and the fact that he wm acquainted with the Dromes did not develop until later. Sirs. Card said on the witness stand that she and her husband had frequently visited at the Dromes' office without any particular object In view. Court records nhow that a year and a half ago Gard was a member of a Jury which gave a client of the Dromes a verdict of $8,000 in n, personal Injury case In which tho law yers had a lion for halt the Verdict Krascr In his affidavit tells of seeing Tom Dcnnlfon speaking to Juror Wilson during a recess In tho trial. Dennlson visited the court house several times, saying openly that he desired to talk with .Attorney Connoll. Connell represented Dennleon In a libel suit against the Omaha Dally News, which was to have come up for trial In a short time. The newspaper since has settled tho ! Dcnnfeon libel rJlt for Jl.OW, according to report. I "Tom Dennlson Is generally credited I with having common sense," said Atto l ntiy ronnell. "This ehargo that he would come to the court house and say anything ' in tho slighted degree Improper to a Juror 1 Is ridiculous." H. C. Drome admits mat Attorney Con nell In his closing argument said that every Juror had asserted that he did not know any of the attorneys on the other side, but Drome declares Gard was not j asked tho question. 1 Taylor, the plaintiff In the suit against Tho Dee, signed nn affidavit similar to I the others. The issue as to whether uam was asxea during his examination If he knew the attorneys for Taylor la of Importance be cause, should It be proved that he an swered the question falsely, he might be prosecuted on a charge of perjury.
