THE O'GONNELL MURDER.
The Question of How the Building
Was Burned Still Remains
a Mystery.
James O'ConnelI, Who Is Innocent
of the Affair to Be Released
on Bail.
There are only few minor new de-


velopments in connection with the
homicide of John O'Connell in West
line township on Friday night, July
3Oth, but the important point on whie b
more light is desired by the State and
the people is how the building hap
pened to be set on fire, and thus burn
ed to the ground.
The defense in the case are trying
to disprove the statement that there
was kerosene oil on the clothes of the
murdered man. In fact, some import
ant witnesses to that alleged fact, have
been won over from the State by the
defense, but there are still some per-
sons who inspected the clothing who
are willing to go on the stand and
swear that the clothes were we'll satu-
rated with kerosene Oil.
Mrs. O'Connell, who admits that she
did the killing in self defense, is ra-
tional. and able to move about the
sheriff's residence in this city. But
she gives no new light on the murder
and the destruction by fire of the
house-in fact, she says, she is unable
to recall anything in connection with
the affair after getting her children
out of the house. There was neither
burning lamp or lantern in the house,
nor fire in the stove, and it must be
! admitted that the fire was started
from pure incendiarism, whether the
work of an insane person, being pecul-
iarly insane on the matter of killing
and then on an attempt to cover up a
crime remains to be disclosed. The
State must prove its case aHd the de-
fense only rebuts and disproves, throw
| ing the burden of the evidence on the
State. County Attorney Clague con-
tinues his probing with the hopes Of
obtaining more light on the subject.
! It appears that Chas. Gahagan and
the murdered man we're both in
toxicated on the nj ght of the murder
or when they came to the O'Connel
house. Gahagan was afterwards ask
ed about this condition, and replied
that he didn't think they we're drunk
"Were you as drunk as you are
now?"was the hot question put to him
by the inquisition officer.
Might be about the same," was the
reply and the officer left in disgust.
The GAZETTE has been given a grea
deal of advice by letter and by mouth
in regard to this and possible similar
affairs of late. One suggestion that {
neighbor of O'Connell has frequently
given bis wife cause for doing tht
same, be even going SO far, while in {
drunken condition. as to drive her ou
of the house on the point of butcher
knife, and she only escaping by tax
ing refuge in the grass of near by
slough.
On Wednesday afternoon of las
week Sheriff Pease and Deputy Abbot
and County Attorney Clague ane
James Bennett, who was the first per
son arrested in connection with thu
O'Connell homicide drove out to th'
place for the purpose of binding Ben
nett over as witness for the State
He was held in $500 bail, and beins
unable to give bail, he was brough
back to town and placed in Jail. 1
