general question instead of repeating
them in each case but Ach Indignantly
refused to listen to such a proposal. de-
claring that would conduct the cross
examination in his own way.
RUEF FIRST TEMPTER
The supervisors disposed of, Ach
turned to a discussion of Gallaghers S
connections with Ruef and the witness
declared that Ruef was the first who
suggested that he go to the supervise $
with the offers of bribes. Gall > 81
said he told Ruef then of certain ones
he believed he ought not to approach.
but Ruef told him to go ahead and see
them all. as it would be all right. Ach
asked the witness if he had ever, up
TO that time in his life, committed a
felony, or when 1t was that he first
committed crime punishable by inn
prisonment in the state penitentiary.
Both questions were ruled out.
When YOU made an offer to a super
visor for his vote did you think over
the fact that you. James Gallagher an
attorney and an official and but shortly
before a candidate for the superior
bench, were about to commit a crime
punishable by as much as IA years i'm
prisonment?" demanded Ach.
Undoubtedly l gave thought to the
matter" replied Gallagher, but I
didn't give it as much consideration
as / wish now that l had
Gallagher drew a fine moral distinc-
tfon between the acceptance of bribes
from corporations as opposed to taking
Doodle from other sources. Ach asked
him why he had not accepted the 81 900
offered him by Golden NJ. Roy when
the latter's skating rink proposition
was made the bait by which the super
visors were trapped.
A MATTER OF BUSINESS
One reason is" answered Gallagher,
: that if l had been taking money from
anybody but Ruef I wouldn't have
taken it from Roy anyhow because of
friendship and his personal services to
the union labor party. The other rea-
son is that such matters were regular
business matters-not relating to cor
porations-and 1 wouldn't take money
for anything under such circum-
stances
The examination continued subject
TO several Inscriptions and objections
on the part of the prosecution. with
question concerning the trapping of
the supervisors, the making of the i'm
munity contracts and Gallaghers tes-
timony in other trials. Ach did not
reach the particular subject of the troll
ley bribe. on which the present case is
based, and probably will attempt to
cover an immense amount of ground
before touching upon 1t. The case will
be resumed at o'clock this morning.

1t is known that the company desires to make its

bending its efforts.
The demand for union depot will find force
in the completion of the Dumbarton bridge. Under

MIR. Andrews Loses His Arm.

Mr. Marvin Andrews, a well known
citizen of the Caledonia neighbor-
hood, met with a serious accident
last Thursday, having had his arm
cut OF by a gin saw.
Mr.. Andrews, who lives about five
miles northeast of Caledonia. was
operating his gin, and put his hand
beneath one of the saws to pull out
some cotton which had accumulated
there, and before he could withdraw
il the saw struck it with full force,
almost completely severing the arm
from the body. Drs. Pickett and
Thomas were called, and the injured
member was amputated. Mr.. An
drews is well known in Columbus.
and has the sympathy of numerous
friends in his misfortune.
