William Boyd, called by Mr. Whit- ing, said he was an honorary member of the Army and Navy Veterans' As- sociation, and paid his\dues. He was | playing poker at the Army and Navy rooms on the night of Feb. ZIst from about eight o'clock till eleven. He paid $5 to Weir for "chips." Weir had charge of the room. "Was any part of your $5 kept back by Weir?" "Yes." "Is that the custom?" "Yes; they keep a quarter." ' What Is it kept for?" "They bring up cigars or anything you want from the canteen." "And thiese are purchased from the canteen through Weir 2" "He goes down and gets them." "How thany were playing in the room that evening ?" "I think there were six in this one room.'"" ~~ 2 Witness said the game was played in a small room e "What was going on in some of the other rooms ?" asked Mr. Rig- ney. "They might have been playing euchre or checkers." Also in the Game, John Gallagher, who also took part in the card playing at the Army and Navy rooms on the night of Feb. 21st, gave evidence. He told of buy- ing $5 worth of "chips." Of this amount 25 cents was taken out and used in buying refreshments. Mr. Whiting wanted to know if the witness had been talking over the case with Sherman or some of the others who had been playing in the game, "Have you talked it over with any person?' asked Mr. Rigney. "No, I have net," said the witness. Questioned by Mr. Rigney, witness {said that if a person lost $5 worth of 'chips' and desired to get more, the 25 cents he paid for the first lot of chips covered the entire cost. To- Mr. Whiting, witness said that the ante was 25 cents and the limit $1. \ "So a man could stay tn all night on $2 worth of 'chips,,' remarked Mr. Whiting. The evidence of Gallagher closed the case. Mr. Rigney, in his argument, point- ed out that the 25 cents collected from each player in the game was spent in refreshments.
