HIS ACT WAS JUSTIFIED.

Testimony in the Curran Case
Indicates That the Killing Was
in Self-Defense.
Special to the Globe.
WAUPACA, Wis.,, June 28.-At the
Curran murder trial to-day, Mr.. An
drew. gunsmith. identified the re-
volver as one he had repaired for Hazel
tine. j. D. Curing, being recalled,
said he didn't remember many of the
circumstances of the morning before
the shooting. He never told anyone
that HaZeltine simply would follow him
to the pOOr-hOuSe, but that he told a re-
porter that HaZeltine would follow him
to the poor house or hell. The cross
examination was very rigid, but moth
ing new was developed. Mr.. Young
swOre that he saw Hazeltine fire twice.
and then witness ran down stairs be-
cause he was afraid. The clerk at
the Curran house, Mr.. Cupp saw Hazel
tine entering the Curran house and fire
twice after the first shot. o. G. Whee-
lock, ex-mayOr of Stevens Point. was
the next witness. He said he didn't see
any shots fired, but heard five shots.
He saw Hazeltine standing on the side
walk with his right arm extended and
act of falling. There was wood pile
near John Curran, and witness saw
piece of wood with bullet in it. Henry
Curran was examined next at great
length. He said he was a soldier
and was brevetted several times
for bravery and meritorious con-
duct. He always was with John
when the latter went out on the street
after learning that Hazeltine intended
to kill John. John went away, but came
home to take care of witness. Witness
recovered, and John remained at home,
but was always armed. Hazeltine's
threats and actions led witness to be-
lieve that he intended taking Johns
life. He saw Hazeltine shoot but did
not see John. He then went to where
John was, but the latter had gone into
the house, so he went over to where
Hazeltine's body was. Witness didn't
shoot, and was not armed at the time.
Several more witnesses testified cOrrOb-
Grating Johns statement, and one Mr..
Miller, testified to finding piece of
wood with bullet hole through it, near
where it is supposed John was. A
painter also found a bullet in the corner
of the house near by.

THREE OF A KIND.
Alexander Sullivan. Lawyer
Beggs and Larry Buckley Will
BE Indicted IO.Day. =

CHICAGO, June 2s.-It is given out
upon eminent authority tonight that at
least three indictments have been drawn
up and will be presented to court by
the grand jury tomorrow. They are
found under the Merritt conspiracy law,
which was passed by the state legisla-
ture Immediately following the execu-
ton of the anarchists. Lawyers call it
an omnibus la W, on account of its wide
ramifcations. Under its provisions, if a
man be killed in California. the individ-
ual who in Illinois has expressed the
opinion that the victim ought to be put
out OF the way or removed, is liable to
be indicted for his murder. The men
against whom it is reported that indict-
ments will be returned are Alexander
Sullivan, Lawrence r. Buckley, of the
executive committee of the Clan-na-
Gael, and Lawyer John F. BeggS. Sher-
iff Mattson has already been notified to
take charge of the latter tomorrow. M.
BeggS, endeavOred to secure his release
Oh writ of habeas corpus this after
noon. Judge Williamson, however. re-
fused to listen to his application. States
Attorney LOngenecker stated tonight
that the grand jury would end its laborS
tomorrow.
BEGGs HAS NOT sQUEALED.
Tonight for the first time since Law
yer John f. BeggS' arrest Tuesday
night, he was allowed to be seen by any
person except representative of the
law. The senior guardian OF Camp 20,
Clan-na-Gael, was plumply asked by the
reporters who crowded in whether he
had 'SQuealed."
II have not he answered emphatically,
''because I have nothing to tell. do not
even know why am locked up here, and
want to say that the treatment accorded me
has been simply brutal. The police have
not deigned to offer the slightest excuse for
my detention. which was made Illegally and
without any offer Of showing authority"
Beggs said his only visitor while in
custody had been Chief of Police Hub
bard. The prisoner explained that he
did not mean to imply that any personal
violence had been offered to him, and
that his complaint was altogether of the
supposedly unwarranted action of the
police in secretly arresting and confin-
ing him, and keeping him from any
communication with his friends. Beggs
says he was arrested as he was entering
his own door, and that the officers
refused to allow him even to notify his
wife. The prisoner attributes his ar
rest to the Vaccinations of local poll
tician whose appointment to a federal
office had been opposed by Beggs.

CHICAGO, June pa "Cronin

sons were prhsent, of whom it is esti-
mated one-ffth were of Irish extrac-
ton. German-Americans and native
Americans appeared to constitute the
bulk of the remainder of the audience.
Only in one instance did anything hap
pen to mar the harmony of the meet
ing. This was when the chair
man used some rather strong lam
guage regarding Irish societies which
evoked protest, but the incident was
soon forgotten. Neither Senator Far
well, Gov. Fifer nor Mayor Cregief, who
had been announced to attend, were
present. w. P. Rend, an lrish-Ameris
can coal merchant, presided in the alb
sence of the mayor. I'm this country ~
declared Mr.. Rend, excltedly, ''there Isl
no place for secret oath bound Irish orr
ganizations." Nevertheless, they will
exist" sang out a stentOrian voice in
the audience. The sentiment was
greeted with mingled cheers and Kisses.
''They will not exist" shouted Mr..
Rend, and he proceeded to assert that
the Irish people would demand their
suppression. Later. Mr.: Rend exclaimed: {:
II say the actions of the men who con-
troll these organizations have brought
disgrace upon the Irish cause" Again
the applause was mixed with Kisses.
The other speakers were Hon. Richard
Prendergast, judge of the county court;
Robert Lindblom. member of the
board of trade; w. H. Dryenforth and
Louis Nettlehorst, president and vice
president of the personal rights league;
Congressman Lawler and Adams;

RUsHFoRD, Minn., June 2S.-On
Wednesday, June 26, storm of unprec-
edented violence swept over this por-
ton of the country, extending from
Wilson to Black Hammer, devastating
the above-named places, and also Wis
coy, Money Creek and Yucatan. The
area swept by the storm is thirty miles
long by three wide, and the damage to
crops is estimated at over 100000, to
which must be added the value Of the
stock killed and drowned, which will
increase the amount considerably. The
hurricane was accompanied by what
must have been cloudturst, as the
fall of water was immense, fill
ing streams and gulches and
covering meadow lands to the depth of
several feet. The railroad was washed
out in two places. Railroad men say
the water came down on the track from
the bluffs three feet deep. Andrew
Thompson, of Yucatan, was drowned,
and another man is reported drowned
near Houston. Mr., Chapel was plow-
ing corn and unhitched his team when
the storm came. He had gone but a
few rods when the torrent carried off
the plow. Hailstones four inches in
diameter fell, and the trees are COM
pletely stripped of foliage. The dam
age cannot as yet be fully estimated, as
reports from the storm-swept district
are very meager, and all roads are in an
impossible condition.

What Changes I'm the Law Are Hoped to
BE Secured i'm the Near Future.
Washington dispatch.l

The Interstate Commerce Committee OF
the Senate has made no special investiga-
ton of the operation of the anti pooling
and the short-haul clauses of the inter.
state commerce law. and has nothing to
recommend TO the Senate on these items.
Therefore, no legislation on these points il
to be looked for this winter. But the bill TO
amend the existing law which was intro
duced year ago and based upon the
recommendations OF the commissioners
has reached stage that promises
some result. The House and Senate
has disagreed on the amendments
to be made. but the disputed items
are in the hands Of conferrees and there il
every reason TO believe that the conferrees
will reach I'm agreement that will be ratified
by Congress. This amendatory bill aims
ut rate-cutting and railroad wars by pro-
viding that three days notice must be- given
OF reduction. At present notice is only
required OF an advance of rates. The bill
adds Imprisonment TO the PENALTIES for dis
elimination and il aims at the very common
practice OF underbiling by providing severe
penalties for shippers dctc ted in UNDER
billing their goods. This trick OF the ship
pers has been much complained Of by the
railroads.
