been utterly mad, but I don't believe
1t. Willie's story does not hang to-
gether."
On the other hand. counsel drew at.
tention to the fact that the defsndants
allegation that he never entered the
house was fully borne out by little
Johnny, as we'll as BY certain facts in
the testimony OF other Witnesses, which
made any such supposition purely grs-
tuitous.
Mr.. Guthrie having exhaustively ex-
amined the testimony Of the main witt
nesses-GeorRe Hunter, Tina Jensen
and little Willie-passed on to the tes-
timony regarding the killing Of William
and Mary E. Hunter. on Buena Vista
street.
He proceeded to read from the tran.
script and comment upon the discussion
that took place before the Jury, prelimi-
nary to their retirement for the purpose
OF counsel discussing ss to the admissi.
bility of testimony going to show the
commission Of b crime su bsequent to the
one for which the defendant was on
trial.
The court interrupted Mr.. Guthrie to
ask what he WAS reading.
Mr.. Guthrie explained, but Mr.. Gage
stated that the jury were retired to

Hunter opened the screen door it swung
to after he was shot. Tina Jensen said
that when Mrs. Craig was shot she was
IN STOPPING position trying to catch
George Hunter. How could Emily
Craig catch George Hunter through the
screen door? That was q physical inn
possibility, but it corroborates John
Craig's statement. He was IA or 10
inches below the side OF that door and
eight feet distant. His wife was not

mony, for the ball did not range down.

The testimony Of all the witnesses
save Mics Jensen WAS that the door was
shut. She says ii WAS partially shut.
Now with the door in that position how

grab at George Hunter through the
closed door?
By the positions 90 stated, too, II was

oblige defending counsel; so far as the
prosecution WAS concerned they did not
care either way. Now, however, to read
and comment upon the remarks OF the
court was scarcely what Mr.. Gage
thought proper.
Mr. Guthrie grew warm. II am here
for the purpose of reading this." said
he. "This is what was said in the pres.
ence OF the jury, and l have a right to
read It."
Counsel began to read to the jury the
days ago. with the remarks of the
court, and stated that In the admission
of the testimony regarding the BueRa
Vista street affair, II the court had erred
it was subject to review,

interjectsd the court at this point, 1.-The
plan upon which the testimony WAS ad--
mitted. Whether right or wrong the
court saw fit to admit it. You must ad.
just yourself to the ruling and not reflect
upon the court
IF you had waited moment, your
honor" retorted Mr.. Guthrie, you
would have seen that did not propose
ref1ecting in any way on the court"
Resuming bis argument the counsel
said II was about to say, gentlemen
OF the jury, that 1t would be impossible
to review this ruling. when interrupted
by the court"
"Mr. Guthrie" called out ths court
sharply, ".you are not showing proper
respect to the court, nor is 1t decorous
that you should say you were inter.
rupted by the court"
"Thsn." replied the irrepressible coun.
eel, II beg the courts pardon, but if
you didn't interrupt me l don't know
what did take place"
This little spat having terminated
without anyone suffering, save perhaps
. trife in temper. Mr.. Guthrie again ad.
dressed himself to the jury.
THE matter can be reviewed." said
The herald., 1894-11-23

the facts are consistent with the testi-
mony OF the defendant himself.
The evidence OF Tina Jensen ia that OF
the main witness for the prosecution.
II it is shown to be contradictory and
doubts are generated in the minds OF the
jury, then, counsel argued, an acquittal
must be the result, because the conten-
ton OF the prosecution would be inval-
idated.
She stated positively that 1t was before
Mrs. Craig went to San Francisco, in
May, that her husband spent the day
with his family. Tho testimony OF Ca
lori, Payne and the defendant himself
went to show definitely that it was dur
ing June, and after the return from San
Francisco. The point in itself is not ma
terial, said Mr.. Guthrie, except for show

Counsel next took the evidence OF the
little boy Willie. Both Tina and Willie
said that g gorge and the defendant
had some conversation ON the porch.

POLICE JUSTICE.

Another Large Batch OF vaGrants and

Twenty.four specimens OF down-in-
the.world humanity were before the po'
lice Judges yesterday. Instead of dimin.
ishing under the exertions Of the police
force and the judges, the number of va

Henry E. Posten, arrested and booked
for q vsgrant as W. w. Reed, told Judge
Austin hard times story thst was we'll
calculated to move the heart OF an oak
tree, only for the fact that it didn't hold
together.
The testimony seemed to be pretty
clear that the man had taken o COM
panion to O house of questionable re-
pute, made him drunk and depleted his
pocketbook. He will be sentenced to-
day.
All Tom, the willy celestial who es-
capped on legal flaw in complaint only
q few days ago, and who was again ar
rested on charge of selling lottery tick
cts day before yesterday, was examined
yesterday before Justice Austin and held
or trial on December 9TH.
John McGregor. W. ]. Fairbanks and
Thomas Henderson were before Justice
Austin and given so days for being
drunk. The offense WAS intensified by

with q gallon jug of sour wine. and being

considered it double offense.
James Lacy will be tried on Decembe,

A Good Idea.

The city and county will sell at
public sale next county court day
the lot on the east side Of St.
Clair street at the north end of the
bridge, and will require the pur.
chaser to erect upon it two-story
brick building, or better, during
this year. Should neat new
building be put up there it Will
shut off the view from the bridge
Of unsightly back premises, and
now if the city and county will
tear away and rebuild or improve
the old buildings on the west side
Of Bridge street at the south end
Of the bridge the surroundings
will be more in keeping with the
handsome structure which spans
the river.

Announcement.

No apology is necessary on the
score Of medical propriety for
thus announcing to the profession
and the public. that we have made
long, careful and special study
of cancerous diseases, together
with all malignant and other
tumors, and are able to offer the
results Of our extensive experience
in Kentucky and surrounding
countries in a system of rational
and successful treatment, that we
believe has never heretofore been
attained, and we are able to point
to thousands of successful cases
not in a boasting, but rather in a
spirit of thankfulness, that we are
thus able to prove SO clearly our
assertion; that our system does
cure cancer. With positive
knowledge of this fact now so
fully endorsed by thousands of suf-
ferers, and approved by the pro-
fession, we should be wanting in
if we neglected any
means in our power to spread the
glad tidings among those afflicted
with this most terrible and hope
ess OF diseases.
