offender summoned before the bar OF
the court. The man turned pale as
he was brought before the judge, and
in answer to the question why he had

said he had come In since the warning
was given, and had involuntarily made
the exclamation upon hearing the officer

STICKS TO HIS STORY.
Through merciless cross-examna-
ton lasting three hours. conducted by
Dist, Atty. +. C. Loofbourow, Joseph
ullivan emerged at 5 o'clock yesterday
afternoon with his story as told in the
morning practically intact. The scath-
ing sarcasm of the state prosecutor
failed to rouse the ungovernable temper
which the prison guards who had had
daily contact with Sullivan for five
years. predicted would burst forth upon
the onslaughts TO be made upon
HIM by the attorneys for the state. In
stead Sullivan stuck to his story, again
and again going over the details of his
morning story with accurateness of de-
tail which Mr. I.oofbourow shook only
in one small detail. That was when Sui
Ivan said in answer to question, that
he had taken up with "Chink' (other-
wise Garcia) on first acquaintance be-
cause the latter invited him to go to his
room to get something to eat before
starting out on his journey. Pressed
to state if thar was the only reason.
Sullivan admitted that "Chink" had
said he too might leave town. and in
that case they might decide to travel to-
gether
And yet said Atty Loofbourow,
you had refused to work out at Muir
ray because of your distastefulness in
mixing up with the foreign element?'
Yes, sir" responded the witness,
In a short time the district attorney
to this phase OF the case, and
again asked Sullivan why he went with
"Chink" to his room on such short ac-
quaintance.
Because he said we would have
lunch" said Sullivan.

leave town with him." continued the
district attorney,
mo. sir" answered Sullivan.
Didn't you say few moments ago
that you thought you and Chink' might
leave town together" insisted Mr.
Loofbourow
mo, sir, did not" said sullivan.
The stenographer was asked to go
back and read the question and an
did so testify.
THOSE FRISCO RELATIVES.
The defendant fatty refused to an
sWer one of the district attorneys
questions, i'm relation to his relatives
I'm California. He said he went from
salt Lake to San Francisco by beating
his way, and from San Francisco to
Portland the same way. Al san Fran
cisco Sullivan said his relatives gave
him SIS.
"Who were the relatives?" asked the
attorney,
There was no reply.
I'm what part Of San Francisco did
they live?"
II positively refuse to answer such
questions" said sullivan.
At 3 o'clock Judge Armstrong asked
the defendants attorneys how much
more evidence they had TO offer, and
they replied three more witnesses
would be placed on the stand. which
would probably occupy half day.
THE prosecution said some rebuttal evil
dence would be offered, not TO occupy
more than an hour. The court am
nounced that II had an engagement AT
Tooele on Monday and would like 10
