there had been a 500 bill in his roll
when IL was taken from him. but there
Vas no such bin in the roll SURRENDERED
by Hansen.
At the conclusion OF Mr.. Murphy's
testimony Mr.. Connolly announced the.
close Of the states case and Mr.. wines
made a very brief statement to the
jury that the evidence for the defense
would show that all the money the de-
PENDANTS received was the amount

Josie Bowers, the woman in the case,
a shameless, brazen bat. was the hrst
witness put on the stand for the de-
Tense. on direct examination h was
anxious to tell all the details Of her ac-
simultaneously with Forvoley. but her
story was different from that h told
when arrested the day following the
alleged robbery. She was not question
ed about the money she is alleged to
have touched Forvoley for prior to the
touch down" made by Hansen. on
| cross-examination she was Impairment
and brazen i'm her demeanor. OF course
her testimony shielded Hansen and KEEL
ly. In her direct testimony the woman
said Forvoley had been in her den the
day before the alleged robbery and he
displayed his money several times and
counted IL. He mad 1915 i'm one roll and
some money i'm another pocket. For
Voley wanted her TO go to Twin
Bridges with him and he produced his
roll to show that he could pay her eN-
penses. She told him she did not want
to go to Twin Bridges and he said she
could make $50 a day and he would
want only half of il. The witness said
there was one 500 bill among Forvoley's
money. He invited her to Hanscn's sa-
loon. where they had a number of
drinks. and he had the 500 bill changed.
He pulled his money out every minute
or two and threw il on the bar. One
time ne threw his roll on the bar and
several bills fell over behind the bar
into the water and the bartender pick
ed them out and returned them to For
voley. Afterwards they went upstairs
into a room.
Forvoley took Hansen 20 one side and
talked to him. and afterwards he told
the witness that he was going to leave
his money with Hansen. Forvoley was
drinking gin iZzes and he ordered the
drinks. which were brought up. For
voley counted out his money and called
the attention of every one to the amount
and then gave il TO Hansen. The latter
offered him a receipt for il. but For
voley said he didn't want it. He took
the money from every pocket in his
clothes and after he had counted IL he
said there was 1868 in the roll. The Bow
ers woman said she was arrested the
next morning and was fined for running
a house of III fame, and Forvoley offer
ed to pay her fine, but he could not get
his money. and she paid II herself and
was released. He came to her place
again later in the day and bothered her
and she told him To get out. as she
didn't want anything further to do with
him. He offered To marry her

Then YOU are not familiar with the
custom on the street," asked Mr.. on

and Forvoley wouldn't give IL Ia thin,
whereupon Kelly rushed in and held
Forvoley while Hansen took the moa-

trouble, ran out. and the last she heard
