SAID BEFORE HE WAS SENTENCED.
DUBIIN April 1S.-The trial of Daniel Curley Ior
participation in the murder of Lord Frederick Cav
sna;sh and Mr.. Burke was resumed this morning.
Mr. Adams. of counsel for the prisoners, spoke for
the defence. Referring to the evidence against
(urlev given by Kavanagh, the car-driver, Mr.
Adams declared that it did not prove that Curley
was in Phoenix Park on May last. His presence
there, said Mr. Adams was indicated by the testi-
mony of James Carey, who had stated that Curiey
was in command of the assassns at the time OF the
murders but Carey testified to that effect IN order
70 save his own neck from the gallows. There was
no doubt that Carey himself was in command oil
the murderers.
Mr. Porter Attorney General for Ireland, repIled
in behalf of the Crown. He declared that the evil
deuce offered by the defence in support OF an aloi
for Curley was worthless and conflicting. He
pointed out that though Peter Hanlon had professed
TO have been in Cureys company for the four hours
covering the time the assassnatons took place. and
asserted that during that time he met various per-
sons the defence had produced only one OF those
persons One of the defendants witnesses, said MI.
Porter testified that Curley was in lquor-shop at
the same time that Hanlon testified Curley was at
another place.
After Mr.. Porter had concluded his argument the
Judge delivered his charge TO tho jury.
His remarks were strongly agaiDss tue
trustworthiness of the evidence to prove
an alibi. He pointed out that there
could not be the slightest doubt that the murders
were perpetrated at the instlgation of secret
societies with which the prisoner was indisputably
connected.
The charge was completed at 2:30 D. m. and tue
Jury retired Immediately. They were absent only
short time and on their return to the courtroom
announced that they found Curley guilty as charged
in the indictment.
The prisoner on being asked if he had anything
to say why sentence should not be pronounced upon
him. said that he had not expected any mercy from
the Court 1t was very unfortunate, he said. that
the Irish bench was never without a Norbury or
Keogh. He admitted that he was q member of the
Inyincbles and was q Fenlan, but declared that he
was not in Phenx Park on the evening the muir
ders committed. Curley said that he loved his
country and could suffer for her. He declared that
the witnesses who had testified for the Crown bad
perjured themselves.
After the prisoner had finished lis speech he was
sentenced to be hanged on May Is. As the Officers
taking the prisoner from the dock. he crled
out in a loud voice: God save Ireland"
