"When the Security Savings bank elogsed the county had $600,000 in it. If the Security bank had failed to pay a part of it would it be said that there was a conspiracy," Mr. Welch argued referring to the failure of the bark in Kansas. The defendants are ready to pour on a string of character witnesses as soon as the court rules on the two motions, unless he rules in favor of Attorney James G. Welch, counsel for Pearsall, made the motion to in-- struct a verdict in behalf of all the defendants, including Caleb Busick, oil stock promoter, and Harold Mar-- tin, former local banker. Two motions, one demanding that Circuit Judge Arthur ®. Fisher in-- struct the jury to find the five de-- fendants in th#e $100,000 treasury case not guilty, were made Wednes-- day as State's Attorney A. V. Smith closed his proofs. r Col. Smith finislted his case with Alton H. Skinner, U. S$. district at-- torney qf Topeka, Kas., on the stand. Skinner _ testified to indictments brought against Clarke C. Nye, of Eureka, Kas., one of the defendants, and of Roy Bracher's and Ira Pear-- sall's request to drop the one which an alleged false entry had been made in the bank at Eureka on the supposed deposit of $100,000 of coun-- ty money. On the heels of this came & mo-- tion from Attorney E. M. Runyard and John Gleason, acting for Nye, to strike any testimony referring to their defendant. ~\_'Tke state has failed to prove there was a conspiracy on either Aug. 15, 1922 or Dec. 5, 1926. "There has been no proof of com-- mon design or an attempt to de-- fraud Lake county out of $100,800 or any sum of money," he declared. Then he followed by stating that Nye, as cashier at the Kansas bank, hbad found it growing short of funds and hbhad called on Busick to raise money if possible. Busick went to Martin at the Security Savings bank since closed, and Martin went to Bracher who sent the $100,000 on its way to Kansas.
