| trial still continues to attract the most
intense interest. Detective McPar-
ton was on the stand again nearly all
day. He told how he was drawn to
kill Jones the mine boss, at Large
fords. How he delayed doing any
thing and how Kelly Doyle and Ker.
rigar, were drawn and sent to do the
bloody work. He said he went to Tam
aqua and was informed that these
men had gone to murder Jones. This
was at 10 o'clock at night and at z
O'Clock the next morning Jones was
dead. The witness said he knew of
six murders and of six contemplated
murders in the case of the mine
boss. Forsy, the witness, informed
superintendent Franklin and large
posse of coal and iron police sent out
and saved ForsythIs. The last wit
ness reported the details of every mur-
der and proposed murder, also the de-
tails of every attempt at incendiarism
to Franklin some of the crimes were
prevented but in a few cases informa-
tion was to late. Jones was warned
that he was marked out to be killed
by the Mollies.
murder was committed too soon after
he found out plans to prevent it. Wit
ness told how Mellus suspected him
and tried to assassinate him. 1t ap-
pears that he went to a bank at Shen-
andoah to have check drawn to the
order of a man named John Barton
but being known to the bak a. JOS.
McKennigand the check showing con-
nection with Pinkerton's detective
agency he was obliged to partly dis
cover himself. This came to the
knowledge of the Catholic Priest
who gave information to Jack Kehoe,
principal delegate of the Mollies,
which led to party being ap-
pointed to kill him, McParton, but
he got away by putting on bold
defiant air. The party tried to get him
into saloon to kill him, but failing
they sent men to his boarding house
to do him violence. He didn't go home
that night. He courted Kerchan's
sister-in-law to throw the party off
the track of the detective. Witness
told against McGegan and Boyle
and then he made his escape and
the men went home. All of
McParton' evidence is strong and
direct and defendants lawyers could
not shake it in the least. Another
witness saw the murder goin home
in the morning after the shooting of
Yost. Witnesses were called to prove
that the man who shot Yost CORES
ponded in appearance to McGeghan
and Boyle. Kerrigan has not yet been
on the stand. He is the confessed
murderer who turned States evil
dence.
