it was necessary TO call the fire de-

The fire in the stove, of course, had
to be extinguished, and finally the
smoke was cleared away. The smoke
did not reach the clothing stock of

CORCORAN MAY TRY
TO PROVE AN ALlBI
Witnesses Will Also Be Called tc
Testify as to Good Character
of the Defendant

The trial Of the Frank Corcoran case
was resumed today in the circuit
court. Little Marie Smith was on the
stand and she remained there all af-
ternoon. The witness did not tell the
story of her own alleged wrongs, as
her testimony was confined to that
which had a direct bearing upon the
case being tried, which charges crime
against children on the person of Car
oline Rind, aged 10. Should this case
fall through, Corcoran will next be
tried upon charges which will make it
necessary for the Smith girl to tell
her story. The state will probably
rest its case when the cross examina-
ton of Marie Smith is finished. 1t is
understood that the defense will intro
duce a number of witnesses who will
testify that Corcoran has always borne
a good character in the community
and that they think an injustice is be
ing done him. 1t is also expected that
the defense will try in some way to
prove an alibi.

MiXup.

Cyriel Blondon was severely cut
about the head by two of his fellow
countrymen from Belgium In a fight
which took place last night in the De

and Fourth avenue. He suffered three
long, deep cuts on the top of his head
and one on the left side of his face.
His assailants, whose names were not
known to the police at the time the
case was set for trial, were arrested
Immediately after the fray and locked
up. Blondon's wounds, while painful,
are not thought to be serious. 1t is
understood that there are two factions
of the Belgians who hang out at the
DeSmet place and the row was be-
tween them. 1t is alleged that Blondon
struck one of the other faction and
that the row followed In the melee
knives were drawn and Blondon got

of his wanderings.
Since the suit was filed in ST. Louis

that were returned friends made
good on them and began a search for
Davidson.
