THE KERR TRIAL.

ingly Early.

ination of James w. Kerr, charged with
the murder of Edward Coogan, this af-
ternoon, j. B. Farrell, driver of a car,
testified to having seen the shooting and
the man who did it, but could not iden-
tify the man who fired the shot. Andrew
Coogan, brother of the deceased, made a
statement, but it developed nothing
new. Counsel for the prosecution then
stated that they had number of other
witnesses of the shooting, but did not
see the utility of calling them. Officer
Greenan identified pistol given him
by Kerr, and the prosecution rested.
Attorney Darwin stated that the defense
was taken by surprise at the prosecu-
TONS resting so early, and asked that
the case go over until Friday, which

BRITISH BEER KINGS.

Another AnglO-American Monopoly
Started at Chicago.
CHICAGO, July 23.-The announcement
was made yesterday of the incorporation
of the Anglo-American Brewing and
Mailing Company with capital of 3OO,-
600 pounds sterling, by an English syn
dicate. The Journal tonight says
another company has been
formed by the same syndicate
for purchasing and operating
saloons in Chicago. The plan is to use
in these saloons only the products of
Anglo-American plants. They will
thus, besides saving the middle mans
profit, have market for the output of
their breweries, independent of the big
brewery pool. The scheme in substance
is simply transplanting of the English
system to American soil.
