OF puzzled, and after he lett they went up
10 ask Miss Holiday what was the matter.

which renewed the laughter.

COUNCIL DID IT.
After finishing the reading which caused
good deal OF laughter, most Of thu sign-
ers being present, Mr.. Hubbard asked:
Now do you know how Henry got
out2" ~. 'aI7
'Isuppose Council let him out" laugh
ter and applause in the gallery.
Mr.. Miller asked to look at the paper,
saving he had no recollection OF it. He
admitted, however, that that was his zig
nature.
Further inquiry brought out the fact
that tho petition was in Clerk Galligan's
writing.
The remaining cross examination
brought out that the making OF such list
of the arrests at pulls was new pro-
ceeding, no such list ever having been
made before by the witness, nor since.
The witness could not explain why he
made memorandum on this occasion
and on no other. MIR. Hubbard asked
him If the three words paid" were
written at the same time NJ the list, and
Junkins after evadiug the question for
some time aud resenting the apparent in
situation shat he would 'swear to any
thing wrong" answered:
so the best Of my knowledge they
were"
Appearances are cert'inly against the
witness. The three entries paid" are IN
aditIerent ink and are crowded lntoaspaCe
evidently not meant for word. The ink
Of these entries ha1 apparently only been
on the paper o short time, being still pale
and greenlsh, while the rest Of the writing
ia larger, coarser and intensely black. In
the hopeless maz9 into which Mr.. Hubbard
led the witness after this, Junkin5 said
the Captain sometimes get money on
finps and then forgot it. -,
This was taken up and the witness still
worse involved. Colonel White attempted
10 interfere once, but without effect.
TIE CHIEFS THREATS.
On the occasion Of the visit Of Junkins
aud the Captain to Ida Holidays, Miss
Holiday said she was S. 10 out. The wit
ness asked Pearl Woods how much money
she got back, and she said IS 70. The
Captain insisted that the mOuey was put
up for the whole house, but Pearl said this
was not so. Ida carried on about II, and
got very wrothy about it. JunkiRs asked
her why she did not come down to the
Office and complain, and sho said she did
not have to. Junkins said 1--WE had some
little words" but could not remember
what they were. As they left Junkins
said If he were Chief Of Police he would
"clean them all out" and the Captain
said to the women, You better keep quiet
or I'll make it hot for youW The witness
did not know what he said this for. Mr..
Hubbard asked II it wasn't because the
woman wouldn't admit that Capt. Smiths
version OF the story about the money was
correct tut got no satisfaction.
In answer to question by Col. White
rs 10 whether the woman was not using
profane language and talking in bolster
Gus manner, JuukinG said they were all
excited. 81 was excited myself, Tor l
thought something was wrong, and didn't
know what. Mr.. Beach had come to the
office and didn't give US any satisfaction"
Mr.. Miller asked if the Captain was in
the habit OF asking for reports about pulls
after they took place, and WAS told yes.
Upon redirect examination by Col.
White Junkins said he might have written
tho word "paid'at the game time he made
the list, or he might have written it after
ward. He didn't Just reCollect.
Mr., ComerfOrd asked lit was a part Of
the witnesses duty to keep such lists, and
was told no.
SMITH WAS EXCITED.
Mr.. Hubbard took the witness again,
