Coffin Brothers’ Trial.
Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 24.—1 n the trial of the Coffin brothers yesterday evidence was introduced by the government to show that there had been collusion between President Haughey and the defendants to deceive the national bank examiner. The defendants gained a point by showing by the government witnesses who appraised the cabinet company property that it was appraised very low, owing to the stringency, and that it was really worth $176,000. It sold for half that amount.
