HE HATED CLoUGH.
He told her not to go TO the wedding
OF ClOuglfS daughter because he mated
Clough as he did the devil"
At that time he suspected Clough
of undue intimacy with Mrs.
Moore. He suspected them be-
cause she did not seem to care for her
husband any more. He could not prac-
tice, so it was necessary that he should
be at peace with all the world. He was
suspicious all the time after the return
Clough. He never made threat TO-
ward Mrs. Moore at any time.
He had known Jellsett since last
March: knew him to be lusttul young
man. The conversations sworn to by
,JellSett were strictly against Christian
doctrine. He never attempted the vile
practices with Jellsett, but Jell-
sett frequently did it him.
self. He never made confident
of Clough nor accused Mrs. Moore to
the latter. HIS didn't remember John
Parmentier, who made the damaging
statements Thursday, but upon looking,
Had known Mrs. Jellsett about a
year. The first time he met her
her conversation was so low and vul-
gar that he had to put her out of the
room. Mrs. Jellsett knew of the
trouble between him and Mrs. Moore,
and offered to get some of the
little flower girls to dress up as
boys and play with little Lolita Moore,
and find out what was between Mrs.
Moore and Cl0ugh. He never limited to
Mrs. JellSett that he would sue Clough,
never offered her cent, land never asked
her to get Clough into a compromising
position. Moore swore tibet he met w.
\. Webster, the st. Paul man. in
Laing's office with Gowdy and Clark,
and that Webster identified the picture
OF Mrs. Moore as that of woman who
had visited Webster's hotel with
Senator Clough. He never offered
Webster one cent, or told any one else
to pay him or offer to pay him, and that
closed Moore's testimony.
He was quite irritable OH the stand.
and wanted to do all the talking and in
his own way. He was followed by w.
n. Webster, of st. Paul, who contra
dicted some of Moore's testimony. Web
ster's answers were given clearly and
firmly. and the reporters thereafter had
all easier time.
wEBsTER's STORY.
He knew Clough by sight. He never
met him in st. Paul nor at his hotel that
he knew of. He was at Laing's office
last December when Gowdy, Clark and
Moore were present. He was taken
up there by Gowdy. Il thought
you were using your best endeavors
to get testimony against ClOugh' he
said in reply to question from LANG.
He was shown photograph of Mrs.
Moore, but did not state that he recog-
niZed it as the picture of woman
who had been at his house with ClOugh.
AS to the money offers made him he
said: "Gowdy told me there is $1,000 in
this If you can help us out. This
man Clough will never let this
come to trial. There is at least
$4,000 in it, and if we are successful l
will see that you get your share-at
least $1,000" Gowdy and Clark
afterward took him to within
one block of 1911 Clinton avenue,
where Mrs. Moore stopped. A lady
whom he yesterday recognized as Mrs.
Moore, came to the door. AS preteXt
he inquired for DR.. Moore, and then
went back and reported to Gowdy aud
Clark that he had not seen Mrs. Moore
but her daughter. He had never
seen Mrs. Moore before that day. That
closed Webster's testimony, and wit
ness who had been strongly relied upon
by Moore proved more valuable to the
other side. Court was then adiourne
until Monday.
