DUBLIN, April 1.-THE trial of Daniel
Curley was resumed this morning. James
Smith, one of the prisoners who turned in
former, was the first witness called. His evil
dence was merely repetition of that given
at the trial of Joe Brady. Peter Carey,
brother of James Carey, was next placed on
the stand. He testified that after Cavendish
and Burke were murdered, he was detailed
to watch the movements Of Kavanaugh, the
car-driver, who, it was feared by the Invinci-
bles, would give information to the authori-
ties, and who Curley wanted murdered.
Smith and James Carey differed as to the
gate by which Carey left the park on May 6.
Two constables, on cross-examination, could
not agree as to the part of the fence they saw
Curley go over. Being asked to point out
the spot on the map, they designated places
thirty yards apart. The statements of Kav-
anaugh and Smith somewhat conflict; Kav-
anaugh swore that Smith told him in the
park that the Chief Secretary was the object
of their mission, while Smith testified that
he was ignorant of the object of the conspr-
ators. A servant girl of James Carey lden-
tilted Curley as the man who frequently
| visited neT employers mousse, anu III COm-
pany with other Invincibles. Another
girl swore that she saw Curley
in the park, on May 6. James Carey's son
swore that he saw his father and Curley in
the vicinity of Dublin Castle on the day the
murder was committed. James Carey tes-
titled that he originally intended to lay on
Burke's body a card bearing the words:
Executed by order of the Invincibles."
Carey said he himself wrote a card for the
purpose. The idea was not carried out,
however. and Curley afterwards placed the
card in the mail-boX of the Dublin Express
newspaper
| The case for the Crown closed with taking
some formal police evidence.
| DIR. Webb, for the defense, compared
! James Carey to Titus Oates who, like Carey,
| was induced to swear away the lives of inno-
cent men in similar circumstances by sim
liar system of lavish rewards. This plot was
a plot with one conspirator, and that con-
spirator was James Carey The young men
of Ireland should take warning from the
fact that nearly all the prisoners at that
bloody assses were mere boys. He was pre-
pared clearly to establish the innocence of
Curley by alibi.
Peter Hanlon, father-in-law of Curley, and
an uncle of Joseph and Lawrence Hanlon
two other conspiracy prisoners, swore that
Curley was in his company from 6 to 1 on
the evening of May 6, between which hours
the murder was committed. A plumber
named Hopkins saw Curey outside of
saloon at 6:45 on the evening of May 6. A
barkeeper swore that he served Curley at 6
that evening. On cross-examination he de-
clined to swear that sale entered on his
books was made to Curley personally. Ad
