The defense then turned their guns
on that part OF the States case in which
the saloon-keepor Nieman testified
70 serving O'Sullivan, Coughlin
and Kunze with Liquor in MS
saloon, at 1890 o'clock on the
night Of May /. James Hyland was
the witness introduced. Hyland is a
tall. gaunt Irishman, OF Coughlin's com
plexion and similar mustache. He is
taller than the detective. and when
they stood back 20 back in front Of
the jury it was seen that his height
was fully four inches greater. In
their appearance there is a great differ
ence. in answer 10 Attorney Wings
questions Hyland said that on the even
ing Of May be and a cousin went
to O'Sullivsn's house 70 look for
a job. He didn't know OSulli-
van before, yet be and his
cousin had supper there, and after
ward about e:30 o'clock the three
went TO Nieman's saloon and drank
sherry. His cousin was, he said, little
shorter than he. This would leave a
difference Of nearly a half foot be-
tween Kunze and the cousin 10 be ac-
counted for by Nieman, who in giving
his testimony was even more positive
Of KunEe than Cougblin.
On the cross-examination the witness
said that he did not speak 20 the de-
fense OF his visit 70 Nieman's s saloon be-
fore Sunday, and that then he had only
talked it over with them once. lie re-
mem bered the date, May 3, so well be-
cause when he first read Of DR.. Cron!n's

OF his having been in the vicinity Of the
Carlson cottage the previous Sunday.
Hyland's examination concluded. his
cousin was brought in and the height Of
the two we're compared. II was disoov-
cred TO be midway between KunEe and
the big fellow. The resemblance of the
cousin 10 Kunze is about as similar as
that OF witness Hyland to Coughlin-
