Attorney Donphue Pleads for His CLIENT
in the cranin Trial.
CHICAGO, Dec 5.-At the opening OF th,
Cronin murder case Attorney Donahus

ponahue announced that he would devote
his speech almost exclusiveiy TO his clients
O'sullivan and kunze. He began bis ad
dress by saying that he felt he was address
ing jury in behalf Of innocent men, and
that he would do the best he could in theii
defense The counsel then described how
he had been retained TO defend OSullivan.
and said he had never heard OF the man
until he was informed OF him by Mike
Whalen, and never saw him until lac visited
him IN jail
He told how he had been appointed by the
court to defend Kunze, and declared he had
never received a dollar from Kunze or his
friends for his defense
Mr. Donahue then took up the defense Of
Kunge, and attacked tho testimony OF young
James and questioned its credibility He
took up again the dubiousness Of identifca
tion, enlarged on the cases in his recollec.
tion and quoted from books 10 complete his
Illustrations He then referred to Mertes
and James testimony about their seeing
kunze nt III Clark street and at the gate OF
the Carlson cottage, and said that 20 think
such testimony was worthy Of serious consid.
Grafton was absurd
Mr.. Donahue then took mp the questions
Of reasonable doubt and circumstantial evi
denee, aud said the latter should be handled
very gingerly Il at all Touching the con
tract, the speaker did not deny its existence
but claimed that unless IL had been prove,
that O'sullivan in making the contract ha,
done So with criminal intent the fact bad ii
significance He thought the state had $
failed 20 prove
IN closing Mr.. Donahue hesought the iur,
70 deal justly with his clients and that I
the name of Alexander Sullivan had evel
prejudiced thom in any manner not to ls
that prejudice influence their minds IN arriv
ing at their verdict

A Modest Hero.

This is not due to me. Lieut.. Stairs was
pierced with poisoned arrow like others,
but others died, and he lives. The poisoned
tip came out from under his heart eighteen
months after he was pierced. Jephson was
four months prisoner, with guards with
loaded rifles around him. That they did not
murder him is not due 70 me. These officers
have had to wade through as many as seven
teen streams and broad expanses Of mud and
swamp in a day. They have endured sun
that scorched whatever it touched.
They have been maddened with the agon
les Of fierce fevers. They have lived for
months in an atmosphere that medical au
thority declared to be deadly. They have
faced dangers every day, and their diet has
been all through what legal serfs would have
declared to be infamous and abominable, and
yet they live.
