Testimony of Mcsweeney's Attorney

San Francisco Special.
Judge c. Cooney in an interview with a
Chronicle reporter relative to insolvency, said
to-day:
II was McSweeney's attorney here prior to
his leaving for Ireland 1 settled up all his
business and acted as his attorney in bringing
the international matter before the President
There has been so much said about the case
that it would only be fair to give the truth in
:he matter.
what did in his behalf was entirely owing
to the fact that I knew him for years in this
city. 1t was from feeling of friendship that
took an interest in his case.
''McSweeney about seven years ago sold out
all the property he had so far as | know, in
California and gathered together all he had
here He and his family left California and
took their residence in County Donegal, Ireland.
Before he left here he had negotiated for piece
of property in Ireland, purchased it, and moved
his family on it, where presume he is residing
now. l do not know of any single interest be-
longing to him in the United States.
at seems after he took up his permanent resi-
dence in Ireland he was elected poor-law house
guardian, and, as such, must have qualified and
taken an oath as officer in accordance with the
British laws. saw letter written by him to
San Francisco six or seven weeks ago, in which
he states he ran for the Office this year and
was defeated. l take it from these facts that
Mr. insolvency must have abandoned, as he
certainly did, his residence in the United States.
he must have considered it preferable to take
up his residence in Ireland under the British
government. 1t is true that he was a natural
lied citizen of the United States his final papers
having been issued to him here in San Francisco
some years before his return to Ireland He
was known here as Daniel Sweeney His nat
uralzation papers were issued by that name
see that after his return to Ireland he resumed
his ancestral name of Insolvency."

One of the most blood curdling acci-
dents that has ever happened in this
region occurred on the Pittsburg,
Cleveland Il Toledo Railrord, about
two miles this side of Kent, on Satur-
day evening. A gravel train with a
boarding car attached, in which was a
force of italian laborers, was backing
up at the rate of twenty miles an hour,
when the boarding car jumped the
track and the balance of the train was
piled Oh top of it. Some nine of the
Italians We're seriously injured, some
of them being mangled in a most
shocking manner. Three of them
were reported dead up to Monday
morning, and it was thought four more
could not survive.

The Great DrOuth.

We are passing through a period of
dryness never before experienced in
the annals of history. Cattle, hogs and
sheep dying by the thousands, and
hundreds of farmers will be ruined if
the drouth continues much longer.
There is only one way to avoid such a
fearful catastrophe, and that is to ap-
point day for picnic, and all the
farmers in the land attend, and as each
one goes through RaVenna on his way
to the grounds. stop at NanNess' store,
get one. half pound of VanNess' TEA,
take it along, when you get to the
grounds have Polly put the kettle on
and make the tea; it will make the
whole crowd so happy that they will
forget all about the dry weather, and
upon their return home heavy show
er will follow.
