Kuuze had been sleeping there. Now
Burke was helping 10 move tue lprni'

the speaker, but he was checked by a
bailitf behind him, who laid his hand on
tue prisoners shoulder and sternly eau.
toned him 10 silence, and the States At.
torney went on with his speech. Judge
Longenecker continued to trace thesLory
Of the crime, dwelling upon the yarIous
links in the chain Of evidence which Con.
nected each OF the prisoners with the
crime; 0'Sullivan and his contract with
the Doctor; his avowed enmity 10 him,

Continuing, the speaker said: DIR,
Cronin's last words as he drove away on
his errand Of mercy, when Frank Scan.
Ian asked him when he would be back,
were: "God knows, God knows when
will get back" Well, God did nol tell
him when he wouldget back, nor did he
know where he was going, yet the God

TIE CRIME IN THE COTTAGE.

dence which showed the commission Of
the crime in the Carlson cottage. The
next point taken up was the expert evi.
dence concerning thespecimensO Of blood
and hair found In the trunk and ID the
