was struck by an officer of the police
department, and that part of his cloth
ing having been removed, he was plac-
ed in cell the lights turned off, and
the officer allowed to enter the cell
He claimed he was assaulted and beat
en-, and told if he did not sign the con
feSsiOn demanded. he would be beaten
To death. He charged that the confess
sion was obtained by fraud. force, in
timidatiOn and promise of reward. This
was the ground set up by the defense
for his acquittal. the confession being
the only evidence against him.
Mayors Connection with the Case.
Mayor McCaskrin, while on the stand
this morning, told of his connection
with the case. and of the writing of the
confession He said that he had taken
the matter up in his capacity as chief
Of police. and that when Johnson was
arrested he had the officers bring the
prisoner to the private office of the
chief of police. He claimed he then
pointed 10 the material evidence
against Johnson, and told him of the
seriousness of the Offense He claimed
he informed Johnson that the offense
committed was one for which the pen
atty is from one to fourteen years in
the penitentiary He said on the stand
thar Johnson gave him the particulars

To see if Johnson might not be started
to the penitentiary at snce. The may
or did go to Judge Gest. and in the
meantime the preliminary hearing OF
Johnson was in progress at the police
station. The mayor was informed by
the judge what he, as an attorney
should have known before. that the
court had no jurisdiction until the
matter had been before the grand jury
1t was here that Albert Huber, attor
ney for the defense. after having the
mayor admit that he was an attorney
at law. significantly inquired if it was
possible that he did not. as a lawyer
know the operation of the penal code
without being obliged to go to a judge
! for information.
Merely at JOhnsOn's Request.
McCaskrin claimed that he knew al
the time that the court could not take
the matter up. and went TO see the
| judge only TO satisfy Johnson. AS the
mayor was giving this part of his ties

over Judge Gest's face 1t is rarely
