are the three who were named by
Senator Allds ns having been Inter

"and the shares of tock, the 100 to
which I subscribed, were Issued to me

no such thing as a Inlying pool among

There was no suggestion of privilege
about it at all. It was a private trans

dirt not purchase any stock for Mr.
Allds at that or any other time."
Theodore P. Oilman, who was dep

qualified denial of Allds testimony in
regard to the stock.
"I never bought stock for Mr. Allds
