White called him a scab Carr objected 10
this and was knocked down and kicked
by White.
When Carr got up he told White that
he, White, would have TO pay for this
treatment on the morrow. meaning that
he intended TO have him arrested.
CARR BADLY ABUSED.
White then struck him again and Carr
clinched with him. After being knocked
down a second time Carr arose. his eyes
full OF lbood so that he could not see He
started 10 go out and home. White stood
at the end OF the bar, near the door to
the back room. When Carr started TO
pass White the latter drew off 10 strike
Carr again and Carr grasped one OF
Whites hands I'm both OF his. White
struck him on the jaw and he fell TO the
floor
The next he remembered was that two
men had hold OF him by the arms, and
Patrick Black. the proprietor OF the sa-
loon, searched Carr's pockets. He told
the two men to let Carr go as he had
none" Carr went out the back door and
home, where he saw his wife and Muir
ply. The witness fell on the lounge. The
next happening was when the officers
came In, said Come with me-" and when
asked why told him he had cut White,
which Carr denied. He was not permitted
20 wash his face or 10 have IL wahsed be-
fore he was taken out. nor was he al
lowed to get his overcoat, though II was

Carr said that he offered no violence TO
White that night other than by clinching
him TO avoid punishment. He did not cut
White.

was not scab. and had not worked In
the mill during the strike Coming out OF

asked Carr TO have a drink and White
then made the offensive remark which led
up 10 the assault. Carr repeated that
White struck him twice. the second blow

he was on the floor, and when he tried TO
get up was kicked down again. He lay
fiat on the floor face down, said some

somebody got hold OF his feet and pulled
him away.
In answer 10 the direct question as 10
whether he accused Simon White. Jr.. Of
cutting him, Carr said that he did not
know who cut him. He was sure that
White struck him and that somebody
kicked him. Carr added that he had not
owned a knife since last February and
did not smoke plug tobacco. During the
struggle he had with White he was in
great fear OF bodily harm.
MR. LovEJoY's EFFECTIVE PLEA.
Michael Murphy, who was q witness Of

BRIEF BUT ABLE DEFENCE.
The defence was brief and TO the point
The contention was that no knife was
used by Carr upon White; on the contrary

very badly used UP by White and other
frequenters of a bar room.
Two witnesses testified that they saw
the principals In Blacks saloon and heard
White denouncing "scabs." One OF them
warned White not 10 talk so much.
