 It was too far away to judge what 1t | was.
 The next witness was Commissioner
 Bishop of the board of public works.
 He testified that he had heard a conver- sation between the late City Attorney | Daley and Sergeant Driscoll about the riad on the London house in February
 1889.
 Captain Wrlnn objected to this as hearsay but finally withdrew the ob- jection. MT. Bishop then resumed:
 The late city attorney said to Sergeant Driscoll: q hear that you say the raid was given away. You have no right to say so, because the intended
 raid was known only to you, myself and Captain Wrinn." As nearly as I
 can recollect the raid he referred to
 was that on the London house. It was
 several years ago, and I would not be
 absolutely positive.
 Levi N. Blydenburgh, another witness
 for the defense, said: q was judge of
 the city court one year and city at
 torney three years. When q general att
 torney I was Hattie Goodman's law
 yer up to 1888, Then believe that
 Attorney Shanley was retained by her.
 I never knew anything wrong about
 Captain Wrinn either in his public or
 private career. The defense excused
 the witness.
 Amanda Williams, g negress with
 police record, testified that she had
 been employed at the London house
 when the raid was made. Hattie Good
 man had told her after Lawyer shan
 ley left that the police were to visit
 the place that night. Hattie Goodman
 had also told her afterward that Law,
 yer Shanley had given her the warm
 ing.
 Captain Wrinn-What was the last
 charge for which you were arrested?
 Amanda did not relish this question and she glared at the captain as though she would like to have killed him with her glance. She finally snapped out; 'I won't tell and you can't make me. The captain then asked if she had been arrested for lascivious carriage and fined $5?
 Amanda-T shan't tell you and I think you're no gentleman to ask me such thing
 This amused the crowd and all pres, ent laughed uproarlously. The witness was excused and as she was pass ing Captain Wrinn exclaimed: Yer think yer smart, don't yer?" and the crowd laughed again.
 Mary Apps and Alice Creed, two other negresses of evil repute, gave testimony similar to Amanda's. Lilly Ledean testified that she had seen Mr shanley there several time, just when though, the witness could not remem- Der
 The Rev. Dr. Newman Smyth then took the stand and testified that he thought there might be discrepancy in the stenographer's notes about the 1 exact dates of the various raids. Pa trolman Hyde testified to several. 1 cannot distinguish them now, as I | have not read the volume of testimony | lately Captain Wrinn certainly con | ducted ai very successful raid for me a l short time ago It was exactly on time | and very thorough.
 Fred Mansfield, who has a long police l record, was the final witness for the | defense. He testified: q heard con. | versatlon between Hyde and Shanley, | in which Shanley admitted that Hyde | saw him coming out of the London | house, but I am not sure it was on a Saturday night"
 Hattie Goodman was then called. | She denied that she had received in formation of any raid that was to be made from Shanley and had never told anybody that worked for her that she had received information about a raid. The reason she had changed from Blydenhurgh to Attorney Shanley was because she thought MT Blydenburgh was charging her too much.
 Patrolman Hyde asked her what her real name was. She accused him of having a malicious motive in asking the question but said that her real name was Lizzie Carey. She was ex- cused.
 Captain Wrinn then made his closing speech in his own defense. It was effort and aroused the admir- ation of all who heard it, In his speech ne said: "This case is an extraordinary one on account of its age. Hyde's charge is six and a half years old. It las taken all that time to hatch out his story If ever a man deserved a discharge from the force it is such l man as can hold a secret of that I sind in his heart for six years. The of the case are extraor- linary The commissioners never have a subordinate who kept such hings hidden SO many years. Who was 1 ,aptain at that time? Captain Hyde, he father of a degenerate son. Look tt him, how he has secured every house If ill-fame in town for his witnesses. Ie has searched the country through l ] rom Hamden Plains to- the Rio Grande md brought Werner back from the lalls of the Montezumas-Wer the l nan discharged from the force in dls- race. And you ought to have expelled Jim sooner. T am the oldest officer on the force I n point of service and I ask you gen. 1 lemen that you now protect my repu- ation from the ruthless hand of the ( assassin. ( "IIere is a paper with the police rec I'd of Hattie Goodman. It shows she I as been arrested fourteen times and T as paid about S1, 900 into the city treas s ry. If she was protected by MT, Shan c ey or I, think this shows we did our uty poorly" t Patrolman Hyde then said in his I losing remarks that he had tried to s arry out the wishes of the investigat- |
