 FRESNO, Cal. Dec. 2.-Chris Evans came in court this morning ten minutes ahead of time. He did not seem in the least disturbed by the results of yester- days work. George Sortag came in and took a seat on the witness stand. Sontag said when they went out to rob , , iiss train they had about 60 rounds of ammunition for their shot guns and fifty rounds each for their revolvers.
 "You are railroad man, I believe 2" asked Attorney Kinds. "Yes, and I have been railroaded, too," replied Sontag. "What do you mean by being railroaded? Do you mean that the Southern Pacific and Wells Fargo rail roaded you through at your trial and that you did not get fair shake up ?' asked Kinds. That's what mean," replied Sontag. ''When did you begin to tell the truth in this case?" queried the lawyer. "When was on my couch in Folsom," said Sontag.
 Sontag's examination was continued and few other witnesses were put on to testify in reagard to the train robbery. Detective w. E. Hickey testified that he had furnished Wilson and his party with arms. He told Wilson that Evans and Sontag had been indicted in Fresno county and to bring them there if captured. Detective John N. Thacker told about finding the stolen money. Noae were present when the money was found in Evana' yard but employees of the Southern Pacific and the Wells Fargo Co.,,
 The witness said he did not remem- Der having told Wilson that Evans and Sontag had been indicted. George w.. Witty testified concerning the first fight, in which John Sontag and Evans put him and Detective Will Smith to | flight.
 On cross-examination he stated he did not have warrant for either Ev- ans or Sontag. He and Smith did not go to Evans house to arrest anyone they merely wanted to get Geo. Son. tags trunk. It was Inez Evans who came to the deor and not Eva. Neither he nor Smith called the girl lar when she told them Sontag was not there w, D. Howell, who saw this fight from afar, also described it. He did not sea whaa had happened in Evans house just prior to the fight.
