Letter to Whitney. Mr. Stratton suggested that I should write a letter to Mr. Whit- ney, saying that Mt. Whitney should know something about it.

Mr, Gamey also told of the inter- view between Frank Sullivan and himself which took place in the preâ€" sence of concealed witnesses in ware- rooms of the Crossin Piano Com- pany on the night of March 10.

In cross-examination, Mr. John- ston asked Gurney if the Sullivans were not friends of his. The witness said that they were acquaintances, and could not recall ever having disâ€" cussed a. “deal" with them before. With D. A. Jones, he had had one deal in mineral lands. He admitted having sold stock in the “Pug” mine, but declared that it Was simp-l 1y on commission, and denied thatl the property Was worthless.
