The Sheriff Stated on Cross Exami-
nation that His Feelings Towards
Hendricks Were Hostile, and that
He Shackled Him.

AS we went to press yesterday
Mody Rainbolt was on the stand
and was under cross-examination for
nearly two hours He was recalled
by the defense and asked if he made
certain statement before Judge Lea
at the time of the coroners inquest,
and he replied No sir"
Travis Moore was the next wit
ness who was called. He testified
that he had known Rainbolt for five
years, and that he knew Hendricks
also, and was present at the fatal
dance in 1901. Some technicality ar
ose during the taking of Moore's
testimony and the jury retired dur
ing the argument by attorneys. Mr..
Moore was very thoroughly cross
examined and was on the stand
when the court adjourned for sup
per. Court convened at 1870 p. IN.
and the court room was crowded to
overflowing and there were hundreds
turned away The aisle was crowd
ed and it was hardly possible for the
sheriff to push through with wit
nesses. There were a still larger
crowd of ladies present than at the
afternoon session. The mother and
sister of the accused man were close
to him, and the mother. wife and
four grown sisters of the murdered
man were in attendance.
AS soon as court convened Moore
was recalled to the stand and was
examined until o'clock
The next witness called was John
A. Kennedy. He testified that he had
been acquainted with Rainbolt for
some time and also knew Hendricks.
The attorney for the defense asked
him if it was not fact that he had
been tried and convicted on a peni-
tentiary offense. The prosecution
objected to the question. but the
court told the witness to answer the
question, and he replied, Il have"
The prosecution produced proof TO
show that Kennedy had been par
doned of the offense. Kennedy
drew a diagram of the premises to
show the positions of the principals
and witnesses on the night the fatal
shot was fired The attorneys on
both sides and the jury thoroughly
examined the diagram. Mr. Beall
for the defense asked the witness
if it was not a fact that Rainbolt
said that he would go out to the
dance and make the s-of a D.
leave town, referring to the Hend-
ricks boys, and he replied, 'No sir"
Mr.. Kennedy denied that he made a
statement that the wrong man was
killed. He also denied that there
was any bad language passed be-
tween Rainbolt and Oliver Hend-
ricks, the man that was arrested by
Re bolt for carrying the revolver.

ng of Rainbolt by Nath Hendricks.

CHICAGO YET WALKING
There Has Been but Little Progress
Made in the Strike Situation To-
Day.-Strikers and Employers Try
ing to Come to an Agreement.

Denver, Colo, Nov. 14.-Miners in
the various camps of the northern
coal fields are balloting today Oh the
proposition submitted by the opera
tors for a settlement of the strike.
The report indicates that the men
favor the terms which are that eight
hours shall constitute the days
work, with the understanding that if
the operators of the southern fields
do not establish the eight hour day
plan, then the miners of the northern
fields shall return to work at the
hours prevailing before the strike.
The miners are granted an increase
of wages of ten per cent.
In the southern field the. situation
is unchanged.
Chicago, H., Nov. 1.-THE arbi-
tration of the strike in the Chicago
city railway may be effected today
and the tie-up of the various lines
be ended General Manager McCul-
Tough and representatives of the stri-
kers are expected to meet in confer
ence international President Ma
hon of the employees association to-
day reluctantly admitted that he had
been called in conference in which
the question of the sympathetic
strike among the employees of the
other traction companies was dis
cussed. He said he believed if the
troops were brought in the Union
employees on the other lines would
quit. Under practically about the
same conditions as yesterday four
cars left the Wentworth Avenue
barns this morning. and were head
ed toward the business district am
ong the jeering crowd that hooted
the police.
The first round trips were COM
pleted on practically schedule time
cident While this trip was being
made the cable came to a standstill,
as result of walk out of the en-
gineers and firemen from the power
houses.
The union teamsters today refus-
ed to deliver coal to the non-union
firemen at the power houses. This
was declared by the union leaders
to foreshadow a strike of the team
sters if an attempt was made to
compel them to make delivery.
The crowds in the strike district
for the most part have. been order
ly. They have been kept constantly
on the move by the police. The
cars have been more successfully ta-
ken to and from the stables than
yesterday. Peace negotiations have
failed to materialize Representa-
tives of the strikers failed to ap-
pear at the Office of the company in
answer to a demand for arbitration,
but sent a request for a peace con-
ference which it is said was refused

9:45 and convened this morning at
nine o'clock.
Tom Martin was the first witness
called today and he testified that
he was present at the time Rainbolt
was killed by Hendricks. John Form
walt was the next witness called to
the stand. He testified that he was
in the house at the time OF the
shooting and did not see Hendricks
fire the fatal shot
F. p. Gayle testified as to the cleo
ton of Rainbolt as deputy sheriff in
Precinct No. 1.
Sheriff Fred Higgins was the next
witness called. He testified that he
was a brother-in-law of the deceas-
ed man and as to the fight OF the
Hendricks boys after the homicide.
He told of the efforts he made to
apprehend Nath Hendricks and OF
the different trips he made in pur-
suit of Hendricks. and he described
at length the details of the capture
of Hendricks in North Dakota. He
continued, after he was captured I
went to North Dakota and got him
and returned here and placed him
in Jail" Upon cross-examination he
testified that his feelings toward the
prisoner were hostile. At this poiut
the jury retired from the room and
the attorneys argued before the
Judge the materiality and legality OF
questioning the sheriff as to the al
legged cruel treatment of Hendricks
since he has been confined in jail
here. in regard to shackling him, etc
and in regard to Mody Rainbolt. a
brother of the deceased man having
charge of the Jail. The Judge took
the matter under consideration and
the jury was brought in and court
was adjourned until o'clock
