DAMAGING TO SHEA.
Witness Says Striker Advised Acid
For Horses.

CHICAGO, December 1.-THE cross-ex-
animation Of Michael Kelly, formerly a
teamster, but now a police an, who yes
terday testified that President Shea of the
Transfers Union discussed with him the
advisabiiity of using dynamite to blow up
the building in which the non-union men
were housed, began with the opening of
court today.
Attorneys for the defense devoted much
time to the effort to learn how the time
book of the work done by the pickets dur
ing the strike came into the possession of
the state and also tried to show that Pres
ident Shea had no knowledge of the ex-
istence of this book.
The witness testified that Shea was the
first man who talked to him about using
acid.
Witness declared that Shea gave him 81
with which to buy the acid. Witness said
he (witness) sent a man to buy 1t and knew
that it was to be thrown upon horses.
Kelly was questioned closely concerning
the paying of the pickets, and declared that
some OF them were paid by the Teamster' 8
Union, but said that he had seen others
| paid by the business agent of the Garment
Workers. on whose behalf the teamsters
went on strike.

lice authorities had made an exception in
her case in not taking her to headqlia rters,
thereby avoiding unnecessary notoriety, but
that under the circumstances she could
not consent to having her picture. taken.
The police photographer was under orders
not to use violence, such as is frequently
used in cases OF obstreperous prisoners.
1t was stated about noon today that the
condition of the prisoner was much inn
proved and that she was not much worse
off than she was yesterday afternoon. 1t
is feared, however, that she will break
down when she hears that her act resulted
in the death of the former senator. Mrs.
Bradley. it is stated. has little or no money,
but her friends in Salt Lake City, 1t is I'M
derstood. win not desert her Some of them
are in communication with her, it is stated,
and when the time for her trial arrives
some of the ablest lawyers of Salt Lake
City will be here to assist in her defense.
SUPPOSED to Be Wealthy.
None of the Utah people who had called
and shown any interest in Mrs Bradley
has had good word to say for the injured
man. Senator Brown" as he is still
called by the people in Utah. is reputed to
be wealthy His friends in this city, 1t Is
stated, have always had an idea that he
was a man of great wealth, but it was said
today by a man from Utah his principal
property consists of a ranch in Idaho and
a magnificent residence on Brigham ave-
nue., Salt Lake City. which is the fashion
able part of the city.
Nobody can deny, however, that he has
made large sums of money the Utah man
said ''for he was involved in most of the
big mining deals in the west years ago;
but he spent his money freely.
When Senator Brown went to the repub-
lican convention held at Philadelphia,
which nominated Mckinley and Roosevelt,
he took Mrs. Bradley with him and enter
tanned her with number of friends, but
the friends, it is stated. had no knowledge
of the relations existing between them.

Bedell Recovering From Indisposition
He and His Partner Expected to
Overtake the Leaders.

NEW YORK, December l2-Try as they
will, Walthour and Bedell seem unable to
make up the lap they are behind the other
twelve teams that remain in the bicycle
race at Madison Square Garden. Both Wal
thour and Bedell are considered among the
fastest bicycle riders in the world, but the
other riders in the race have thus far been
able to hold them. This, may be due in a
measure to the fact that for the last twenty
hours Bedell has been suffering from indi-
gestion. 50 that his stomach has not been
able to retain solid food and as a result he
has not been able to do himself full justice
Today, however, Bedell felt better and was
able to eat chop. With renewed strength
he and Walthour may find that they can
gain the desired lap.
Set Crowd Wild.
The riding of Walthour and Bedell has
been the feature of the race up to this
time Twice during the night they set the
the lap, and once, early today, they nearly
succeeded. Bedeii started the squirt and
gained nearly quarter of lap and then
Walthour picked up his mate and continued
the race.
Round and round he rode, gaining grad
ually but surely, but just as he seemed as

rules governing fall, Walthour's effort
did not count. Disappointed, but still de-
termined, Walthour gave up the attempt
for the time.
At am. today the twelve leading teams
had scored 1919 mites and laps and Wal
thour and Bedell one lap less. This is nearly
seventy-four miles behind the record OF
1,O93 miles and 1 lap, made by Miller and
Waller in 1899.
The score at O'Clock am, which con-
cluded the fifty-sixth hour Of the race. was
1,O35 miles and laps for all the teams ex-
cept the Walthour-Bedeil team, which was
one lap less
The record is 1,112 miles and laps, made
by Miller and Waller in 1893.
At II am all the riders had covered LOSS
miles and laps, except Wa1thour and Be-
dell, who were one lap behind.

PORTER's ODD STATUS
BY REPUBLICANS,
HE REPUDIATEs DEMOCRATS.

Is Representative-elect Peter A. Porter of
the thirty fourth New York district a demo-
crat or a republican? This may seem to
be question that ought to be very easily
answered, but it is likely to cause Mr..
Porter lot of trouble before 1t is solved
On the unofficial roll Of the Sixtieth Con-
gress Mr.. Porters name is carried as
democrat. He is bringing pressure to bear
to have it transferred to the republican
list, where he claims it belongs. He has
not succeeded, however, and it is said that
he will continue to be ciassed as demo-
crat until he personally appears in the
House and denounces the party which first
nominated him for Congress.
The democrats. on their part, will not
give UP without a struggle their prize, for
as such they regard Mr.. Porter, and will
insist that he remain tagged as demo-
crat, whether he votes with them or not.
For the present Mr.. Porter is said to be
without party. as he repudiates one and
is repudiated by the other old-line organi-
zation.
Mr.. Porter Is the gentleman who beat
Representative Wadsworth for Congress in
district that had been republican from
time immemorial and after Mr.. WadswOrth
had served eighteen years in Congress. 1t
will be recalled that Mr.. Wadsworth had a
little run In with President Roosevelt
over the meat inspection question in the
last session. and his friends say he suffered
the fate of several other public men who
have taken issue with the executive.
Mr.. Porter was nominated for Congress
by the democratic convention on the same
day that Mr.. Wadsworth was nominated by
the regular republican convention. He sub
sequently got the nomination of the Hearst
people, the Independence League. Still
later he passed around petition and Sc
cured nomination as an independent.
Having thus corralied all the elements in
the district antagonistic to the regular re-
publican organization. he prosecuted his
Campaign and won on election day.
E He was undoubtedly elected by. the anti
claiming allegiance to the regulars. It win
make some difference to Mr.. Porter, for
unless he is republican he will not get
any patronage in the organization of the
next House.

the place of chief of the inspection division
of the government printing office. but that
he was urged to do so by Mr. Stiliings. and
he accepted. His friends also claim that he
has completely organized the work in the

pration bill provides for ''one chief in
spcctor and purchasing agent at $500 per
annum.
The reported resignation of Mr.. Brown
was generally discussed today among MEM
bers of Congress and the few officials OF
the government printing office who are

Capitol said that he presumed Mr.. Brown
knew more about the inside workings of
the big printery than any other man who
had been employed there.
Gone to Michigan.
1t was said this afternoon that Mr.. Brown
had given up his apartments at 1401 Massa-
chusetts avenue northwest and that ac-
compapied by Mrs. Brown he departed for
Grand Rapids Mich, last evening. One
of his friends is authority for the state
ment that there will now be a congress
sional investigation, more particularly as
to past methods and the expenditure of
government funds and supplies.
As a result of the work of the inspection
division in condemning so-called useless
and worn-out machinery, former employe
of the office said today that there is a
great junk pile of condemned machines,
etc, in the old printing Office building.
Has Been Accepted.
The official announcement was made late
this afternoon that the resignation of Mr..
Charles S. Brown, chief inspector of the
