A Witness i'm the Cronin Case Swears II
Was Not Dinan's Horse.
CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The defense in the
Cronin case seem to have on hand well
selected stock of alibis The effort in this
direction yesterday was to prove an alibi for
Dinan's white horse. The witness, Louis
Budenbender, swore that he had been to the
Dime museum Tuesday and examined the
white horse which is on exhibition there and
which, as Oman himself swore, Just
previously is the white horse that Dan
Coughlin ordered and which was taken from
Dinan's stable on the evening of May L..
Budenbender then testified that he was on
the street opposite DR.. Cronin's Office that
evening and saw the horse and buggy in
which DR.. Cronin was driven away. He saw
the doctor come out of his office hurriedly
and get into the buggy and saw it driven
away out Clark street. A man met the doc
tor at the door mot the driver of the horse)
and engaged him in conversation for perhaps
five minutes, the doctor the while going to-
ward and getting into the buggy. The
horse was not Dinan's horse it was
speclzled gray. [Sensation1 After
making the point that although the doctor
was in big hurry he still spent five minutes
talking to the third man, the prosecution had
the witness subpenad for its side of the case
in rebuttal
The other testimony taken was that of ex-
pert microscopes. Professor Marshall d.
Ewell, DR.. H. M. Meyer and DR.. Lester Cur
tbs, all experts swore that there was no known
test by which the difference between human
hair or blood and that of horses or dogs
could be detected. This closed the session.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2L--The testimony offered
by the defense in the Cronin trial yesterday
was directed mainly to strengthening the
abb for O'Sullivan, the iceman, and setting
up one for Bourk. The chief witnesses were
Mrs Thomas Whelan and her sister, Miss
Kate Mccormick, both of whom testi-
fed that O'Sullivan was at home on
the night of May 4. Matt Danahy
and William Coughlin also testified that
Martin Bourk was In tho formers saloon
from 1880 to 10 o'clock on the night of May
4. The two feminine witnesses also cor
roborated the testimony as to the visit of
the Hylands to O'Sullivan, and his going out
with them about 10 p. m. May 5. The cross
examination was devoted principally to
preparation for evidence in rebuttal. All
the witnesses bore the oss-examination
well.
Finerty, and all members of the Clan-na-
Gael, swore that they never heard of an
sinner circle" in that order. States Attor-
ney Longe iecker was called to the stand and
testified that Beggs voluntarily told the
grand jury of his correspondence with SPELL
man, OF Peoria, and what measures to take
to find said correspondence, which Chief of
Police Hubbard swore was found according
to Beggs' directions

The Defense Closes.

CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-The defendants in the
Cronin murder trial. after introducing two
or three witnesses to strengthen their alibis
for Kunze and O'Sullivan, closed their side
of the case yesterday, and the state began at
once to offer its rebuttal testimony. The first
witness called for this purpose was DIR. Pat
rick Curran. Strong objection was made by
defendants counsel to the questions put to
him, and at the time of adjournment all the
lawyers were wrangling over it.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23-The first witness called
by the defense in the Cronin case yesterday
was Mrs Hoertel, who had testified last
week to seeing white horse drive up to the
Carlson cottage the night of the murder, a
man resembling Dr. Cronin get out and go
in, after which she heard sounds of strug-
gle, and heard some one exclaim go God. y
The idea was to impeach the woman's testi-
mony as to her memory, but it failed COM

Stiff Corrects His Testimony.
Edmund Andrews, surgeon, swore that
the wouods on the head of the corpse found
in the catch basin were not necessarily fatal,
and after brief cross-examination of the
witness, Officer Stiff was put on the stand
and swore that he had made mistake in his
cross-examination few days ago as to the
sequence of events between May and 6. He
reiterated his statement that he saw Cough
lin at the station on the night of May 4, and
said the order to send out and see if any rig
had been hired Saturday night at any livery
stable was dated May 5, IL SO p. m., and on
the morning of May 9 he gave the order out
Ex-Detective Loewenstein swore that Gar

lin, was the keeper of saloon of very bad
repute and had threatened to kill Coughlin

Coughlin had also sworn out warrants

In reply to the statement in the American
Wool Reporter that ''free wool does not
mean free goods, because the Intelligent
farmer knows very well that the only pos
sible market for his fleeces is to be fouho
by encouraging domestic manufacturers
the Michigan Farmer says: Don't fooi
yourself. If there is one thing more strong
ly impressed upon the minds OF farmers
than another, it is that when wool Is Tree
all goods manufactured from it will be free
also. Keep that point. firmly in your mind
and you will not he apt to make any mis-
takes" And THE TINES believes that Is
just as it should be. There is no more fully
exploded humbug than the idea that wool
and many other materials used by our man
ufacturers are to be classed as ''raw ma
terials," and to be SO construed i'll the
making of our tariff laws. Farmers,
miners, producers of these, will not permit
of any such action.

We listened more in sorrow than in sur
Dickie, in opera hall, on the afternoon of
the Goth inst. In the past we have often
listened to speeches made by Mr. Dickie
and expected to hear, this time, some new
thoughts OH the greatest moral question of
the day, the humiliation of the rum traffic
but we listened in vain. His speech was
simply labored effort to prove the republic
can party was committed to the perpetuity
of the saloon; just that and nothing more.
His charge that high license increased the
lumber and influence of the saloons is
simply too absurd to admit of reply, and
denial of it simply the assertion of well
known facts, as the tax law of Michigan
he calls that high license law-we do not
but then never mind that, has reduced
the number of saloons paying United
States tax in this city from 80 in 1912,
when there was about 1000 people in
Owosso, to IA in 1850, with some six or
seven thousand population, and under the
operation of this same law the consumption
of alcoholic liquors, including wine, beer
and cider has decreased i'm Michigan from
SO, 900, 600 of dollars in the year 1912,
with population 100000 to 1919 mil
lions in 1889 with 100000 or more of
population. And what is true of the result
of the restriction laws of Michigan is true
as to the effects of the law everywhere else,
notably in the city of Omaha, in the State
of Nebraska. We agree with him that the
character, if it has any, of the saloon can
not be improved by restrictive laws, or any
other kind of legislation. There is nothing
good i'm it, and no foundation on which to be-
gin to build up character. But that ques-
ton is not at issue. Many true friends of
total abstinence believe that regulation,
where humiliation of the traffic is impos-
sible. is better than unrestricted sale, and
that high taxation is the best kind of re-
striction, not because of the income derived
from the tax, but because by it, If the laws
are properly enforced, the traffic is made
unlawful, and the ban of public condeDna-
ton placed OH it, that its federation under
the restrictions imposed is simply the lesser
evil, and Is also educating the people up to
the total pulverzation of the traffic.
