Mr.. Johnson claimed that the s7,6C0 was
Carriers share Of the check. but could
not give any reason for his having re-
ceived it eleven days in advance 1t was
after the discovery of five or six such
instances that Johnson repeated his state
ment that many of mis- conclusions were
arrived at by deductions.
The afternoon session was taken up with
questions and answers which referred to
the tabulated statements compiled by Mr..
Johnson since the court-martial OF Cap
tain Carter The statements were sub
divided into nine divisions

the witness explained his theory and
traced each sun named through different
banks and brokers to the original gov
ernment check made out to John T. Gay
nor for the construction company.

Elgin, ILL.,, Oct. 5.-The operator at
the Fox River switch. just below Ell
gin, gave the signal for Northwest
ern passenger train to cross the St..
Paul track Just before he heard the
whistle of the through passenger on
the st. Paul road. The latter was be-
hind time, running rapidly on wet rails
and down grade. Suspecting that it
would be impossible to stop the train,
the operator, to prevent the St. Paul
from dashing into the Northwestern,
which would have resulted in great
loss of life, deliberately derailed the
St. Paul train. The engine and several
cars bumped over the ties, and the
locomotive stopped within a few feet
Of the other train, but nobody was
hurt. One track was blocked for sew

She will be seen on the stage in the
