ssWhat were you doing there?"
"I desired to see Ex-GOv. Merrill
and Judge Ford"
The witness was piled with all forms
of questions, but answered them ap-
parently satisfactorily. he worked
with a painter the next day, and while
he spoke of the Haymarket tragedy,
did not tell what he saw. He did not
tell his landlord or landlady, with
whom he was staying. He did not
think it concerned them. He only told
the states attorney.
"Did you see any one shoot at the
Haymarket 2" j.
s'No, sir, but I saw q great deal OF
shooting"
"And you say that it was Spies that

Apparently baff1ed and exhausted
court adjourned for dinner.
The Anarchists, particularly Spies
and Fischer, appeared to be COM

character of the evidence, so coldly de-.

A GRAPHIC SCENE.
Gilmer is long, lank man, with g.
sanctimonious expression of cOunte-
nance, and speaks in a drawing tone
of voice that almost lulls the specta-
tors to sleep. The appearance of In
difference in the audience was sudden
ly dispelled when the witness identl-
fed the photograph of Schnaubelt as
that of the man who threw the bomb.
Interest was depicted on the face OF each
listener. Judge, jury, counsel, prisoners
and auditors leaned over in breathless
anticipation and listened to each
word thatfell from the lips of the here
tcfore ludicrous witness, and when he
said that Spies was the man who light
ed the fuse the most intense excitement
prevailed in the courtroom. Every
eye was directed at the accused man,
whose face paled when he regained
his self-possession partially and
pulled nervously at his mustache
and leaning over toward Mr..
Foster breaks into an incredulous
laugh. For one instant g. death-like
silence reigns, and then buzz OF many
hushed whispers fills the air, which
once more merges into perfect silence
as the witness points to Fischer as one
of the men in the alley. 1t was now
Fischer's turn to pale and tremble,
though the expression on his face was
one of blank surprise and astonish-
ment.
CHICAGO, Ill.,, July 29.-State's At

or thirty officers we're attended.
Among them were Flavin, Hansen,
Miller, Whitney, Keller and Red
den. Those attended at the hos
pital by DR.. Murphy were the

wounds In the leg. The popularity OF
this shell wound is that it makes a
very small opening but inside the soft
flesh is torn terribly. A. G. Keller was
struck by a piece of shell hitting him
on the eighth rib and lodging over the
heart, making
