Government Witnesses in Rcbuttal Are
Expected to Knock Them Out Easily.
CHICAGO, Nov. %, 1SS9.-When Dan
Donahoe gets through with his evidence
in behalf of Kunze to-day, the State will
begin the introduction of its rebuttal
evidence. Among other things that will
be proved will be che ract that all of Pat
O'Sulifvan's ice wagons and all of his
men, with the single exception of Mulca-
hey, were engaged until utter l O'CLOCK
on the morning Of May 5, owing to the
demand for ice.
A number of witnesses will be intro
duced to re-prove that Menehan. Knight
and Brennan could not possibly have
played cards in the Ashland venue
saloon, as they claimed to have done.
The testimony hat will be used to
quash the remarkable statements made
by the Hylands as to their visit to New
mans saloon on the night of May 8 has
already been outlined. The two cousins
swore that when they reached the saloon
there was nobody there but Nieman. The
latter has furnished the names of at least
a dozen men who were there at the hour
the cousins mentioned, and they will all
take the stand.
So far as Burke's alibi is concerned, it
will not stand long when witnesses are
introduced to show that Matt Danahy,
Tile Saloon keeDery WIS OuO buggy flulHB
on the night of May 4, instead OF serving
drinks over his bur as he claimed to have
done. 1t was OIL account of his absence
from the Saloon on that night that suS-
picion was originally directed against
him, and caused his temporary arrest oue
day about a month ago to give Hatfield,
Reyell & Co.'s salesman and Throckmor-
ton, Knight & MarshalI's bookkeeper a
chance to identify him as J. B. Simonds.
Coughlin's alibi has gone down under its
own weight.
There was a good deal of gossip around
the Criminal Court building yesterday
about instituting criminal proceedings
against every man who has lent himself
to the alibf business, but Judge Long
necker said nothing would be lone in this
dir ection until the trial was over.

THE PARNELL HEARINGS CLOSE


Michael Davitt's Gain.
FL Cable to the United Press.
LONDON, Nov. %, 1Ss9.-The close of the
public proceedings of the Parnell Special
Commission is a source Of qualification to
all parties concerned in the business. To
the Parnellftes it is a matter of satisfac-
ton in that it ends q farcical trial of @
case in which from the manner of its
prosecution they had lost all interest *
cept curiosity to learn to what lengths
the Court in it's final decision would dare
to go in its ill-concealed bias in favor OF
the Times; and it is with feelings of relief
to the Tories that a further exhibition OF
the weakness of a cause which promised
SO much and has yielded so little is re.
moved from the broad light of publicity
to the narrow confines of secret delibera-
ton.
Although Mr.. Parnell succeeded with
very little effort in clearing his skirts of
the accusations SO reeklessly made against
him, and was also successful in proving
by the Times own witnesses that the
papers charges were based on forgery
and perjury; the man of all the accused
Parnellites IN Home Rulers who has
emerged from the treadmill of calumny
with the highest honors is Michael Davitt,
whose reputation as III earnest and self
sacrificing patriot and al eloquent orator
is greatly enhanced, and whose import
ance as a factor in the construction of the
inevitable Irish Government is recognized
by those who have hitherto turned their
back upon him.
