The motive Of the great conspiracy
Was the next theme for The orators elo-
quenCe and thought lie sad II might
possibly be that the appotn tmeng of
secret committee a. the meeting % Feb
raary 5 WAS not FOR The purpose of mug-
der. but II IL had an Innocent origin
Why had not the members Of that secret
committee come here 10 tell for What II
was appointed?
Referring 20 the knives found on Dan
Coughlins person Mr Hyuts claimed
that they were undoubtedly Dr.
CroniR's. II not then 10 waS ons of The
most remarkable coincidents ia history
rhat the man who moved the appoint
meut Of the committee and who hlrei
the white horse should De found carry.
ing two knives identical in every
particular with those Of the man he mur.
dered There are IN the market prob
ably 600 different varieties Of pocket
knives. II that is the case the chances
that any two men should carry such
single knife o. exsctly the same pat
tern is one in a thousand But that two
men should carry two knives identical
in every particular. Of this the chances
are one in million. Add 70 this the
fact that when the clothes were found
DR.. Cronin's knives were not in the
pockets, and, the speaker claimed, al
room for doubt was removed.
To Suspect Burke's albi Attorney
Hynes next gave his attention. After
commenting on the contradictory nature
Of Matt Danahy's evidence he referred
TO the pitiable impression made by the
witness who mad attempted 20 retute
the story of the hack driver. Swanson,
by declaring that be was drunk
The conspiracy in Camp 20 was the
next subject taken up by the lawyer,
and he introduced il by an eloquent
tribute to the Irish patriots who have SC
long been striving TO separate England
and Ireland. 1t was subject dear 70 the
speakers heart, and he handled IL in a
mastery style and SO oloquently and
forcibly that the audience listened tc
him with rapt interest Scarcely per
son moved in the courtroom while he
spoke OF the triangle and it's leader,
whom he characterized as a designing ao-
venturer. was terrible and complete. lie
showed how patriotic men had been be-
trayed into English prisons, how their
betrayal had been used 70 cover W
enormous embezzlements OF money con-
tributed for patriotic purposes, and
finally how, in order to ward of ex'
posure, foul murder had been resorted
to.
Here the speaker stated that he would
not be able to finish his address during
the session, and court ad jouTned.
At the morning session the speech
was resumed where IL had been dropped
at adjournment-the elucidation OF the
true significance Of the meeting held
on February s. The innernost
workings OF the infamous con.
spiracy. some Of the nom bers Of
which had been induced 20 mistake saw
agery for patriotism. would never be
wholly revealed until some putrid con.
science should show them forth With
phosphoresoent light in the shadow Of
the gallows.
Tho claim that Or. Cronin was killed
because he was British spy was
knocked out with enc blow Were
such claim true" the eloquent at
torney cried. the nurdcTers would
have been sent across the ocean 70 put

Attorney Hynes dismissed the alibi Of
the white horse by citing the contradic-
tions in the testimony OF Buden bender,
and then the inconsistencies Of the driver
Of the white horse with the actions OF ap
innocent man we're discussed. The idea
that Smith hired a horse way Up on the
North side 70 take out riding al aunt
living way down at the stock yards, and
making the trip In two hours and q half
was absurd The driver. With hesTy
