ABUSE OF THE SMITH BABY
THAT is THE NUB OF THE TESTI-
MONY IN THE MURRAY
CRUELTY CASE
Mrs. Lottie POIOnis and the Mother
of the Infant Told the Court of
Incidents That They Thought
Were Cruel.


The municipal court was occupied yes
terday with the case of the state against
Mrs. Bridget Murray, 700 Lee avenue,
charged by the Humane society with
cruelty to children left In her care. The
circumstances connected with the prose
cution Of the woman were given pre-
viously in the G O b e.
Attorney Foote appeared for the de-
PENDANT, and City Prosecutor Arnold for
the state. Several witnesses were called
and the case was continued over the ses-
sion. Mrs. Lottie Polonis, of Silver Lake,
Mimi, was the principal witness for the
prosecution. She came to st. Paul in
May, and lived at the Murray house,
awaiting admission to the city hospital.
She testified that Mrs. Murray had
abused Ernest Smith, 4-months-old
child, and had taken Harry Mcdonald,
another infant, and put him in a tub of
hot water. She did not know how hot
the water was, but testified that the child
was very red when taken out. She cor
roborated in detail her previous state
ments, and told her story with much
frankness and clearness Mrs. Rose
Smith was the second witness called and
testified that she had seen Mrs. Murray
slap her child and otherwise misuse him.
She did not think her baby had been
properly cared for while at the Murray
place, and testified that when she took
it out, after being notified by Agent
Moak, it was pale and sickly and appar-
emily not in good health.
Both witnesses were given a severe
cross-examination by the defendants at
torney.
Mrs. Mary Homers. living next door to
the Murray house, was put on the stand
She is Polish woman, and spoke
through an interpreter. Her evidence
was not direct, and consisted mainly
in reports which had reached her ears
through the neighbors. The examination
of the witnesses continued until o'clock
when the case was continued. Mrs Muir
ray has not yet been put on the stand.
