M'DONALD UNSHAKEN.
Resuming McDonald's cross-examina-
tion Mr.. Johnson drew the witness hrst
into discussion concerning the arms
used by the robbers, and next ques-
toned him with regard to the manner
in which the robber purporting to have
been Callendine had walked. He was
absolutely certain that the gait and mo-
tions made by Callendine in the City
Prison were the same as those of the
robber in question. He identlfled him
from his size, appearance and gait in
walking, and also from his prominent
cheek bones. As it was rather dark in
the office at the time of the robbery, it
was rather difficult to distinguish the
features of the men.
In the redirect examination McDon-
aid said that since he had seen Baker in
the City Prison he had noticed him fire.
quently hitch up his trousers, sailor
fashion, and that he had noticed the
robber who wore the rubber coat do the
same thing.
The man who had done the most of the
talking at the street car office had worn
a mask, and his voice was somewhat
muff1ed, but the witness was positive
that the voice was decidedly similar to
that of Baker
UNFOLDING TOWNSEND.
G. c. Snider, who resides at Oak Park,
and is foreman of the electric railway,
was the next witness. He had visited
I the car stables early in the morning
after the robbery. He described the
back of the building and the door en-
tered by the robbers. When he went to
the stables he found the gate and the
back door open, the latter being held in
position by bricks piled against it.
This evidence was corroborative of
the story told by Townsend, who testi-
fed to the bricks having been piled
against the door to keep it open.
SAW CART AND GUN.
Motorman T. J. Elliott testified that
he saw Callendine on the evening of the
robbery in a cart at Tenth and P streets
with another man whom he did not
know. There was gun in the cart be-
o'clock and Callendine was leaving the
Harris house.
The witness also saw Callendine the
next morning. The latter boarded his
car and asked the witness, What is
the latest?" At that time Callendine
was wearing a mustache. He said,
Jack, the newsboys must be having a
holiday, too'' Elliott denied that Cal
lendine had said anything to him rela-
tive to the robbery while on the car.
General Hart took up the witness for
cross-examination and elected the fact
that the gun in the cart was rifle.
Counsel asked the witness how long
he had resided in Sacramento, and he
replied, "Well, General, you ought to
know as well as I do. 7 came from CO.
lusa County about the same time you
did"
E. A. Wright, who was a conductor on
the P-street line on the same car of
which Elliott was motorman, had also
seen Callendine. The latter wore a
short, stubby mustache at the time
The evening before he had seen Callen-
dine in a cart, in which was another
man, gun and some other truck. He
was sure the gun was a rifle, and that
the bore was larger than that of D.
caliber
On cross-examination Mr. Wright
stated that he was unable to say how
many times he had seen Callendine
leave the Harris house with gun, in a
cart. Once before, he was certain, that
he had seen him in a cart, having a
double-barreled shotgun, but couldn't
say say whether he had seen him at any
other times or not.
THE DOODLE.
Conductors John White, T. J. Coff-
man, D. S. Baker, c. A. Spicer, G. s.
Stillman and others testified as to their
receipts on the day of the robbery.
A. Mcdonald, the foreman, was re-
called and testified that twenty-five
conductors had been employed during
the day, and that each one had depos-
tied his receipts in the safe.
LIKE A GRANGER.
c. E. Russell testified that he was
slightly acquainted with Callendine.
and on the 18th of March had seen and
talked to him. The latter had said:
Il look we'll to go to the st. Patrick 5
ball tonight, with my pants full of hay
seed and cockleburrs, don't II"
Callendine had further said that it
cost him $50 to get out of the scrana
after he had killed Jack Harris. and
that General Hart had only been to see
him three times. The best part of if
was that he was not even put on the
stand to testify. Continuing, the wit
ness testified that Callendine said.
The only thing a man in a fix need do
nowadays is to get a smart lawyer like
General A. j.. Hart or Grove L. Johnson
to defend him, keep mis- mouth shut, and
he will come out on top
General Hart asked that the evidence
be stricken out, which request was de-
MED by the court. 70 which ruling the
attorney took an exception. The Cen
eral refused to cross-examine the wit
ness, asserting that the testimony was
