j. j. Duffy sworn. Knew Sinnott
and would believe him on oath in a
court Of justice; his character was
good; did not know his business or his
associates.
| Col. Casey Young knew Sinnott
since 1861 never heard his character
discussed.
P. Hackett, Captain of Police, was
sworn. Thought Sinnott's character
good, principally from the fact that he
thought he stood well at the Appeal
Office.
| Colonel Young, recalled. Did not
know any reason why he should not
believe him on oath; did not know
where Sinnott lived; saw him very
often at ward meetings.
Mr.. ReynOld, sworn: Said he was a
shirt cutter; often bought goods at
B. Lowenstein's; sometimes, when he
was in hurry, goods were given him
without being wrapped up, and left
the money with the clerk; did not
know the name of any one clerk from
whom he bought goods in that way
never waited to see what they did with
the money; about two or three months
ago one of the clerks told him they
could not give him a bundle any more
without wrapping it, as one Of the
cash boys had put some money in his
pocket when sent back to the desk
without a bundle, and hence the rule
was more rigid.

tai Palace saloon; knew Darling; did
not hear him say he set a trap for

Monday; that this was false; that he
was to say he bought bracelets for wo-
man, but got drunk, did not give them
to her and returned. Afterward said he
had agreed with Mundinger it would
not be best to say he was drunk; that
he was to be paid for swearing, either
by money or a situation; saw list oil
| jurors Sinnott wanted summoned;
knew he got the paper from Sinnott on
the 7th, because on that day he was
turned out of the Clarendon Hotel on
account of Sinnott; took dinner at
the Clarendon with Sinnott and after
