THE o'MALLEY TRIAL.

titles That Her Notes Are Correct.

Miss Shirley, the StenoErnpher, Tcs-
titles That Her Notes Are Correct.
Chicago, Feb. 6.-During the trial of
Alderman O'Malley and John Santry,
charged with the murder of Gus Colli-
ander, Miss Shirley, the stenographer
in the states attorneys Office who is al
legged to have furnished Attorney For
rest, counsel for O'Malley, with notes
taken at private examination of state
witnesses by Assistant States Attor-
ney Pearson, testified that her notes
were correct. According to her notes
several of the states witnesses at
the private examination were I'M
able to identify O'Malley as being
present at the time of the murder.
When these witnesses testified in court,
however, they swore positively that
O'Malley was present and was one of
the leaders in the attack on the polling
booth.
Miss Shirley accused the states at
torney and Mr.. Pearson, his assistant,
of having ordered her to doctor" the
transcript of the shorthand notes she
had taken of Witness Smiths interview
with the states attorney. She swore
Mr.. Pearson ordered her to omit all
"side" questions. and the defense al
leges that this proves Smith was tu-
tored in his testimony. Attorney For
rest jumped to his feet and shouted: IL
demand the disbarment of Mr.. Deneen."
The states attorneys openly talked Of
bribery having been resorted to by the
defense to get Miss Shirley's testimony.
The state intends to bring in testimony
impeaching the woman's version of
the Smith interview, but it is believed
that Mr.. Deneen's refusal to admit the
alleged interview will work strongly for
OMalley's acquittal.

Proposed Liquor Legislation Receives
u Setback in Iowa.
Des Moines, Ia, Feb. 6.-The propo-
sition for legislation to allow the manu-
facture of liquors in Iowa was prac-
tically knocked out for the present
session of the legislature Friday, when
the senate committee on suppression of
intemperance held it's first meeting. 1t
had been understood that members of
the committee who. year ago, voted
against manufacture, would bring up
the question and move to report bill.
They failed to do SO in committee, and
after the meeting expressed themselves
as unalterably opposed to considera-
ton of the matter this term. AS the
bill could not possibly pass without the
votes of these members of the commit
tee, it is accepted as ending the matter.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more
generally needed when the languid,
exhausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of tonic and alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and free
