 Mrs. MalOy's Testimony-James Mall
 ley, Jr.'s. DOtnGs on Thursday and
 Friday Evenfngs-A Number Of Witt
 nesses Examined.
 The hearing in the Malley case was re- sumed at 1o:3o at Thompson's Hall, West Haven, yesterday morning. Counsel say that the trial will no doubt of necessity continue until week after next as there is much more alibi testimony to come in yet, and then the State will have rebutting testimony, and the defense will want to reply to that. Yester- day was the twentieth day of the examina- tion
 It was decided by ahe State to question the Quinn girl further, and after some discussion message was written and Constable Bab- cock sent to town for her. Mrs. Maloy, residing at 55 Garden street, head milliner a. Malley's, was the first wit ness, her testimony being continuation of the alibi testimony. She testified to spend ing the evening at the residence of James Malley's father, on Whalley avenue, on the fatal Friday night, Aug. 9th called on his daughters between and 8, with my two daughters, aged respectively 9 and IS; saw Lizzie, Katie and Lulu Malley, Miss Healey
 the dressmaker, and the errand girl, Minnie Quinn; I had not been there long before Miss Lizzie Malley went out into the hall and spoke with her brother James; she said
 'Mrs- Maloy is here, Jimmy" and he said
 "Good evening, Mrs Maloy."
 Mir. Bush here interjected protest against any evidence except of direct knowledge Witness must state only what she saw or heard herself respecting the accused.
 The witness being thus cautioned went on
 James was in the dining room it was then
 between and 8 James called to me and in- quired if l saw him the evening before on Whalley avenue; I said I did and that I
 thought he was driving pretty fast; this was
 all that was said between us; Lizzie and | Lulu were present; I heard one of them
 speak to James about coming into the parlor
 and lighting the gas; subsequently, while in
 the parlor, heard James singing up stairs l; knew his voice; when the clock struck 9 that Friday night l proposed to go; did not leave till half an hour later, I think ?: when left the house the three Misses Malley ! were there; the Misses Healey had gone home, believe, and I could not say where
 the Quinn girl was.
 MT. Bush interiected caution to witness not to cast glances at the other witnesses or
 the counsel for the MalIeys. Counsel for de- fense made testing reply. Very soon after | the three Malley sisters left the bench Cat I suggestion of Sheriff Peck) where they had been sitting and sat elsewhere.
 Witness returned to the subject of seeing James Malley the evening before driving on ] Whalley avenue. This testimony was cor | roborative of James Malley, jr., on the sub | ject. Witness described the team as well as I Sh6 a1a fad kIo, oirr1k | as 1t was the Sd when one of her daughters | came home from Springfield also because Lizzie Malley was in the store and asked wit | ness to pay 8 visit to her at the house that evening; witness put off the visit till Friday evening to remain at home with her children that evening. This closed the direct testi- mony.
 Mir. Bush cross examined at length-My | oldest daughter was in Springfield; she lives with my sister-in-law, Mrs. Jennie O'Reilly, there; MT. O'Reilly's first name is Austin,
 and he is in the liquor business in Spring l feld come to think I guess it was the 4th instead of the 3d that my daughter came home: I recollect it now the other daugh- ter came home from Hartford, where she had been to school to St. Josephs convent, some- | time shortly after uly 4 ;SS it was sometime Thursday when Miss Lizzie MalleY called at | the store, but cannot say wh 'her forenoon or afternoon at that time my laughter from l Springfield was at my mothers on Orange street; remember Miss Lizzie calling that Thursday to borrow few cents to make up a sum she was short in paying for some sew 1 ing silk she came up to where I was in the work room.
 Witness in her further evidence said: My | mother is Sarah Burns and she lives at 121 Orange street my daughter from Springfield went there first and then came to me; that morning received Western Union dispatch from Mrs. O'Reilly stating that the daughter l was coming that was left at my mothers
 because my letters all go there visited James Malley's house July 4th with my younger daughter; Walter Malley called and
 James was there endeavored to have my daughter show the progress she had made think she played upon the piano I did not stay in the evening; I have visited James
 Malley's house twice with my children; my eldest daughter Sarah goes to the convent school in Springfield on Everett street; lam
 a widow left the store at o'clock Thurs day night; then went to my mothers, got the children and started at once walking for home. Witness was positive it was James she saw riding on Thursday evening on
 Whalley avenue she testified that she had called on the young ladies number of times at tho James Malley residence since that week, and in answer to long run of ques- tions stated many things with reference to her visit on the alibi evening; don't know what thought when he asked me if I had seen him out riding Thursday night; don't think it was strange that he asked me; did from the time I entered the house until I left at 9:3O; spoke to him as have stated when was in the parIor and he in the dining room Miss Healey was not in the parlor with me when I spoke to him; she was up stairs. for heard James tell one of the girls, or the little girl, to call Miss aealey down, as he wanted his supper; this was after I had the conversation with James, and after Lizzie asked him to light the gas it was fifteen or twenty minutes after the conversation; think Miss Katie was in the room at the time; couldn't say that Miss Quinn was in the room think Miss Katie was showing me her dress at the time, and some one lighted the gas after James re- fusal; saw Miss Healey come down; am not positive about the time she came down after she was called; think it was ten or fifteen minutes after; 1t was about ten minutes after she came down that she cana into the par Tor; didn't see James go up stairs heard singing-don't know how long after wards-which I thought was up stairs can't tell what time it was-it must have been an hour and half before left, at 9:3O; don't know as it was eight o'clock asked who it was singing because it's habit have of asking questions about things don't know; was pretty positive it was James heard the 9 o'clock bell strike, but don't know which 1t was have frequently heard the bell at my house got up to go while the clock was striking and asked Miss Lizzie the time; knew the time; I asked her just be- fore; she said it wasn't late won't swear that she didn't tell me the hour; knew it was one of the young ladies it might have been after 9 that I asked the time she got me her watch and showed it to me think it was just about g; she went out of the room and bringing it in showed it to me; asked to see it for it was new; it was a present.
