the Carlson cottage hinges or hair.
The one hair found on the cake Of soap
is the only evidence that he ever entered
that slaughter-h0use. Of course the
circumstantial evidence that he was de-
coyed there and there was murdered Is
as strong as it well could be, tat Of d.

only connecting link.
CHIc GO, Nov. 1.-THE first hour OF
the morning session OF the Crcnin trial
was devoted 10 showing that kunze from
April IA until arrested went under the
name OF John Kaiser. For this
purpose Henry Buckholz, Charles
Herkimer and Joseph Petowsh
were called Petowski also told OF
Kunze frequently asking him 70 90
with him 20 Lake View, where his
folks lived, but though the witness
was willing TO go, Kunze always had
some excuse for not going when
the time came, and they never
went. Once he told the witness
that his parents had gone 10 Europe. that
the house was vacant, and they would
go up together and enjoy themselves
there. But they never went. The va
cant house referred TO is believed 70 be
the Carlson cottag1. More evidence was
introduced TO show the intima-
cy existing between Coughlin and
Kunze. f. f. Washburn, a saloon-keep-
h,a kerr mil
II and 20 Kunze and O'Sullivan drove up
and stopped at his saloon. The horse
the two had was dark bay, and Kunze
said he had bought ii.
1t was horse Of such color that
Mertes saw hitched TO the buggy in
which the two men drove up 10 the cot
tage on the night OF May :, and as
Kunze was, according TO Mertes, the
driver, the testimony Of Washburn IS
looked upon as especially valuable in a
cOrroborative way
The next witness was Gus Klahre He
said that Burke came 10 his shop on the
morning Of May with a tin box on
which Burke wanted Klahre TO solder
the cover. The box had a cord
around it. and as he was about
10 cut it Burke stopped him and told
him "for Gods sake" not 10 dc
that. Klahre continuing said that hav-
ing read about the disappearance Of Or.
Cronin he asked Burke what be thought
of it. Burke, applying foul epithct
70 the dead physician, replied that
he was British spy and ought to be
killed.
