body, two were harmless, that third

not have lived more than three or four
minutes from such a wound. The point
was emphasized in cross-examnation
that the bullet inflictng this last
wound was not found during the au-

mate that it was of the same size as

numerous questions. Again and again
Mr.. Moss tried to get at the old charges
when Devery was a police captain,
and Devery did not remember.
Il don't remember now I don't re-
member, l can't remember" he reiter-
ated THE records of the police head
quarters and the records of the court
will show all this
long series of questions with hope
lessly Indifferent answers from Devery
followed. At last Mr.. Moss got this out
of him:
Il have never demanded or received
any money or valuable thing for doing
or refraining from doing my duty or
any part of my official duty. and I have
never received a dishonest dollar or de-
manded one in my life. l defy anybody
on that. / am advised that any aues-
ton touching my personal affairs is
not material or proper or pertinent to
this inquiry and I decline to answer by
advice of counsel"
That means you won't tell us what
real estate you own. what stocks you
have, what money you have in bank.
what property you have in general?'
said Mr.. Moss.
well. l don't mean that" said the
chief. Il am willing to tell the pubi2
anything, but I decline to answer any
you refer to now"
Mr.. Moss questioned the chief closely
about his movements last night. Devery
admitted that he had met Police Com
missioner Sexton at his regular corner,
whereupon the chief said he nightly
smoked a cigar before going to bed.
Then Mr.. Moss brought out the fact
that Devery spent good deal of time
last night in watching the alleged dis
orderly resort called the Broadway
Garden. the former proprietor of which
is said to be among the list of witnesses
to expose police methods.
Are you going about and seeing the
people whom you see here to see if they
are going to appear against you?' de-
manded Mr.. Moss.
Il don't know replied the chief.
Mr.. Moss asked why. even while the
committee was sitting in session here,
the pool rooms We're running all around.
He. stated that he had in his pocket
money that his investigators had won
in the pool rooms. Devery said his men
were looking after it," He added that
if Mr.. Moss would make a specific COM
plant he would have the men arrested.
The chief promised he would try to
stamp out pool rooms, policy shops and
massage establishments, to which
Mr.. Moss drew his attention by refer
ring to newspapers.
After some unimportant testimony
from a policy shop keeper and a saloon
keeper as to dismissal of an indictment.
the committee adjourned until Friday
morning at 10 o'clock.

Manila correspondent says:
General Lawton, after 80 days of
successful campaigning, is resting with
5000 men at Candaba. He said to me in
describing his victorious march of q
months duration:
1T panied me when we got into San
Isidro to see on the walls of the prison
there the names Of the Is Americans
from the Yorktown.
"'From Colonel Ray, the Spanish Of
ficer whom we rescued, learned that
one of the American prisoners escaped
from his captors His freedom was
short lived, for he was afterward re-
captured. He was stretcheH ON the
ground before his fellow prisoners and
20 lashes were given to him.
1--WE found a letter near San Isidro
written by one Of the Yorktowns crew
saying that they were being kicked
that their hair was being pulled out and
that they were cruelty treated in vari-
GUS other ways, and praying their fell
low countrymen to hurry to their re-
lease
The insurgents make a practice OF
numbering Cinnamon who fall into their
hands, and our men, I suppose, should
consider themselves fortunate that they
have not been similarly treated"
