Hitchcock, the actor, refused to an

was called as witness in the action
for criminal libel brought by Former
Congressman William AstOr Chanler
against William R. Hearst. Hitchcock

The witness was sustained by the

HER STORY PATHETIC
Mrs. Bradley Tells of Her Re.
Iations With Brown.
STRAIN PROVES TCO GREAT
Accused Woman Unable to Conclude
Her Narrative of Illicit Affections.
Spectators Moved to Tears at Her
Emotional Recital,

Washington, Nov. 20-T am so
tired" said Mrs. Annie NJ. Bradley,
the defendant in the trial now in
progress in the criminal court in this
city, after she had spent about four
hours on the witness stand relating
the details Of her acquaintanceship
and intimacy with Former United
States Senator Brown, with whose
murder she stands accused, and Judge
Stafford Immediately gave orders for
the adjournment of the court. She
had not reached the events directly
connected with the tragedy in which
Brown was killed, but had very close
ly approached them, and they will be
the subject of the first testimony to
be given at the next session.
Her story dealt with her first ac-
quaintance with Brown and told how
that acquaintance gradually ripened
into friendship and finally into love.
1t was long and pathetic narrative
of illicit affections; of promises OF
marriage which could at first be made
only on the condition of divorce on
both sides, and then Of disappoint.
ment and grief when both became
free and could have been legally unit.
ed if Brown had been willing. Mrs.
Bradley gave the particulars of many
pledges made to her, told how Brown
had introduced her AS his wife and of
how he had given his name to one of
their children, and also of how he had
aided her in no less than three Grim
iral operations.
She related also many pleasant in
cfdents of their life together. She
wore smile when she spoke of her
pride in his intellectual attainments
and told of their reading together the
principal poets. She said that he told
her over and over again that she was
the only woman he had ever loved
and averred that by his manner toward
her and his superior attainments he
had gained a complete mastery over
her.
The courtroom was crowded and
many of the spectators were women.
Tears were frequently shed not only
by the general audience, but once or
twice by members of the jury. Mrs.
Bradley was quite emotional and her
voice was scarcely audible at times.
Her attorneys, however, expressed
confidence after the witness left the
stand, that she would be able to pro-
ceed to the end without a breakdown.
Mrs. Bradley said her health had
failed during her association with
Brown and she told of one occasion
when she was tempted to commit sui
eide.

KILL FUR BEARING ANIMALS
What the Lake Crystal Trappers Were
Doing Friday.

Last Friday was rat day, says The
Lake Crystal Union. The time fixed
by law for the killing all fur-bearing
animals.
There were a great army of fell
lows sailed forth, some with spears,
only; others carried guns, skates and
spears, and rugged to beat the band.
All succeeded in killing something,
if nothing more than time.
Ole Osten, clothIer, succeeded in cap
turing the greatest prize of all dur
ing the day. At slough on the old
Curryer farm, Ole spied an animal
creeping into rat house. He drove
his spear into it and luckily hit a
vital point, the struggle was short.
Pulling the creature from the hole, it
was found to be an otter, six feet
long. The pelt of this animal is worth
from $lS to $40. te
Robert Cole speared mink and eX-
hibited the pelt stretched upon shin
gle on his return home Friday night.
The hide of this animal is worth 81

UNPRECEDENTED SCENES.
Mark Passage of Prohibition Bill in
Alabama Senate.

Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 20-Unpre-
senate chamber of the historical capi-
tol of Alabama when the statutory
prohibition bill was passed. Women
and children thronged the corridors
and galleries and even usurped the
sanctity of the floor itself, pushing the
senators from their seats and giving
vent to their enthusiasm by shouts and
cheers that echoed and re-echoed
through the building. Senators who
opposed the bill were Kissed down
when they arose to speak against the
measure, and Lieutenant Governor
Gray, the presiding officer of the SEN
ate, was forced to reprove the spec
tators.
The statutory prohibition bill is in
the nature of compromise between
the antis and prohibitionists. The
antis, seeing the handwriting on the
WALL agreed to give up the fight pro-
vided the time was extended to Jan.
1, 1909, when the sale of whiskey will
be forbidden in the state of Alabama.
This amendment will be sent to the
house and will be concurred in with
out fight.
Governor Conner will approve the
bill and it is understood that a move
ment has already been started by the
state w. G.. T. U. to make the sign
ing of the bill very formal occasion.

Deal Closed in Chicago; John
Hohmann is President.
Smart & Borders Have Many
Interests Taking Time.
Made Proposition Which Was
Accepted by Local Men.

After remaining in the possession of
Smart & Borders of Chicago for a
period of year or more, the Stand
ard brewery becomes the property of
the Lamm Investment company. The
deal was closed in Chicago on Monday.
The company buys back the brewery
and will hereafter operate it. Messrs.
Smart & Borders have so many inter
ests which demand their attention they
could not devote the time necessary
to the institution here, so they dis
posed of the brewery to the Lamm
Investment company.
John Hohmann will be the president
of the company succeeding Mr.. Bor-
ders. There will be no other changes.
The Lamms will make some i'm
provements on the brewery and con-
tinue to manufacture a first-class
beverage.
The Standard has enjoyed large
and ever increasing business. The
output has increased greatly during
the past year. The excellence of the
product has won many patrons. I'm
der the management of the Lamm
company, the business is sure to be in
creased over all previous records.

TRIAL OF JOHN R. WALSH
Alleged Transfers of Funds Traced by
Bank Examiner Moxey.

Chicago, Nov. 20.-ApproXimately
$2,000,000 which it is charged by the
federal prosecutors had been trans
ferred by John R. Walsh from the
vaults of the Chicago National bank
to the Golfers of his several enter
prlses, had been traced by means of
entries in the books of the institution
when National Bank Examiner E.. P.
Moxey stepped down from the witness
stand at the temporary adjournment
of the Walsh trial.
Mr. MoXey occupied the stand
throughout two sessions of court and
all told identified eighteen entries
which tits claimed by the prosecution
are proof positive of misapplication of
funds as charged. The aggregate of
the amounts testified was S1,000,000.
A similar amount was previously
traced in like manner The bank ex-
aminer was not allowed to allege any
connection between the various sums
shown in the books. Such testimony
was ruled by Judge Anderson to
amount to conclusion on the part of
"iS 'ANiiSoo oiu Illc pIOoSCuIlOH was
confined to introducing entries which
showed, first, that loans had been
made on securities of the Walsh cor
porations, then that amounts, often
precisely the same and at other times
approximately those secured on the
loans, had been paid into the personal
account of Walsh on the day the loans
were made and that these amounts
had been paid out of the Walsh ac-
count on the same day and finally
that the Walsh corporation had re-
ceived on those days amounts, the to-
tai Of which was about the same as
the amount originally loaned
The process necessitated the identi-
f1cation Of entries in anywhere from
twelve to twenty books.
