BILL ERWIN OBJECTS.
MCTILATED EVIDENCE RULED
OUT IN THE DEBS CASE.
Western Union Boys Prove a
Match for the Lawyers of the
Prosecution.

CHICAGO, Sept. IL. - The Western
Union messenger boy had his inning at
the Debs trial today. Several of the
boys were called as witnesses, and all
of them baffled the attorneys in their
attempts at confusion In cross eXamina-
tion.
James Connors was the first witness
called. He testified to having delivered
messages to various A. r. U. officials.
Among them President Debs.. He swore
positively to having delivered at least
three to Debs personally, and identified
the presidents signature OH the deiiv-
cry sheets. Gus Wohlers, also a mes
senger, gave similar testimony and said
he had given several kilograms into
Debs' hands. Fred Miller, who was
stationed at the Revere house, Deus
headquarters during the strike. declared
that he had delivered kilograms to each
of the defendants.
On cross-examinatIon he pointed out
the defenants in the court room. Sew.
eral other messenger boys were exam
ined and then Director Hogan, of the
A. r. o., took the stand. Hogan fur
nished mild sensation by refusing to
testify. He said he did not wish to be
examined aud was excused on
the plea that as defendant he
need not incriminate himself.
Henry o. Shepperd, printer and pub.
Usher. the next witness. testified that
his company printed the Railway
Times. the official organ of the A. r. u.
His testimony was for the purpose of
showing that Debs controlled the paper.
Mr.. Walker then called David S. Germ,
shorthand reporter. who had taken
Mr.. Debs' evidence before the
federal strike commission. After much
objection he read part of it to be put
in evidence. When he had finished.
Mr.. Erwin, for the defense, demanded
that the whole of it be introduced, and
the court held that the government must
introduce a complete transcript of
everything that pertalned to the matter
already In evidence.
Mr.. Walker then read portions of two
copies of the A. r. U. constitution, and
submitted them, after much objection,
as evidence. The copies varied some-
what, and Mr.. Erwin wanted to prove
by Secretary Keliher the date of the
adoption OF the second one, but Mr..
Walker objected and the count
| told Mr.. Erwin he must wait
until the turn of the defense
came. After parts of the constitution
had been introduced MIR. Erwin IN
sisted that it all go in. and it was ad-
mitted. Mr.. Walker then read certain
portions of several numbers of the
Railway Times, aud introduced them as
| evidence.
After couple of reporters had testi-
fed about an interview, which had been
printed in their respective papers, court
adjourned until tomorrow. {

The racing yesterday was the best by
all odds so far, and the crowd took more
interest IN it than at any time vet.
Fully 10000 people thronged the grand
stand and applauded the races. The
track was in good condition, but very
dusty, and thus, with prairie fire near
by, made it almost impossible. to see the
stretch poles in some of the races. The
delays yesterday were not so long as on
the previous day, and everything moved
off more Systematically.
The judges were the same as on
Tuesday, and this may have aided in
getting the races started at the schedule
time. There were the usual preliminary
performances, and between heats, of the
pony chariot races and Broncho Johns
Wild West show, both of which were
decided improvement over those of
Tuesday.
Pool selling at the races this week Is a
quiet business, and the ono firm that is
doing business does not seem to be next
to any great degree. The betting today
was very quiet and there was no ex-
element around the stand. The first race
of the afternoon was trotting race, In
which there were eight entries. The
purse was for $500, five heats, best three
