Crenin was expelled couple of years
ago, on the charge of treason. John r.
Walsh, president of the Chicago Ma
tional bank, who was receiver for KOsen-
field & Co., brokers. after the failure of
that firm in 1887, was before the jury
for nearly an hour, explaining the Opef-
atiOnS of Sullivan on the board of trade
in 1882 IS, as indicated by the accounts
Of the defunct firm. 1t was reported
that SO far as Mr.. WaIsh's knowledge

COMMITTEE THAT EXPELLED CRONIN
from Camp 20 for treason, was on the
rack for considerable time, and was
followed by Lawrence Buckley, the
chairman of that committee and captain
OF the Clan-na-Gae guards. The latter
returned evasive answers when ques-
declining to lead the guards in the pro-
cession at the Cronin funeral, and both
denied any intimacy with either Martin
Burke or Michael CO0ney. Burke, how
ever, is understood to have been
memberaOf the Clan-na-Gael guards, of
which Buckley is captain; but the
latter insisted that his acquaintance
with the Winnipeg suspect was only a
passing one. Dennison Ward was called
upon to tell why he and John F. Beggs
visited the east, just &after the CrOnin
murder. He averred that the visit was
one of combined pleasure and politics
as he was at that time candidate for
Office at the gift of the national admin
istration, and deemed it prudent to go
to Washington and get acquainted in
order to increase his chances of prefer
ment. He insisted that the Cronin mat
and stated that. although he lived
upon the same street as Tom Mur-
ply, treasurer of Camp 20, he knew
nothing of that mans business or of the
proceedings of the CIan-na-Gael. Fred
n. Allen, one of Revell's employees and
the man who took the furniture from
the store to the Clark street fiat. gave
minute description of the purchasers of
the furniture. and thought Burke's
photograph bore considerable resem-
blance to the one known as Frank
Williams. Lik the other witnesses, he
was not certain as to the identity, as
the photograph of Burke is most
abOrtive one, and shows but few dis
tinct delineati0ps of the features. DR..

WOUNDS UPON CRONIN'S HEAD
and described the probable blunt char
aefer of the weapon that must have
produced them. He admitted that the
blows might have been inflicted by ex-
actly the weapon described by Wood
ruff in his recent confession. This
weapon. 1t will be remembered, was
something in the nature of small cog
wheel, in which was inserted buggy
spoke, the improvised handle extending
through, and an inch or more beyond
the lower side of the weapon. Mrs. j.
T. COnklin and Charles Carlson were
both on the stand again for few mi

Stevens came to tell what he knew
about McDavitt and one or two other
suspects upon whom the police have
lad their eyes for some time, and who
ere. or recently were. employees OF
the hospital under Stevens. The war
den stated that McDavltt was not

had never been an intimate of Burke,
Cooney or any of the other persons now
under arrest or suspicion. The jury
will resume Its sessions at 10 a. m. to-
morrow, but there is probability that
it will complete its labors this week.
Nearly all evidence within the reach of
the states attorney has been produced,
and, unless the police succeed in cap
turing Cooney within the next forty
eight hours, or discovering additional
evidence duplicating the individual, the
jury will doubtless render its final re-
port on the Cronin case Saturday, and
proceed to the consideration of other
business. The dispositions for the ex-
tradition of Burke were completed this
evening.
