Altogether Different Thing,

It is singular that those persons
who talk most loudly about their bad

the air after shutdown is of very little

J. w. Ewing Said TO Have Told Con-
hictiDG stories.

Judge Mower In city court late Mon
Of Joshua William Ewing, charged with
perjury in connection with the trial Of
Mrs. Emiine McNulty, which was held
Saturday afternoon
Ewing, who Is Mrs, McNulty's son, was
arrested yesterday on complaint issued
by City Attorney Villas The city at
torney claims that young Ewing told an
entirely different story Mt Mrs McNulty's
trial from the one he is alleged to have
related to the police
It Is claimed that Ewing came into the
police station and told Chief Russell that
he had been ordered out of the house on
Battery street and that he was gong
to have things Strengthened out down
there before he went away. He is allee ed
to have said that Arthur I.ocklin, who
was also charged with adultery in con-
nection with the McNulry case, had been
living at the house for several years
Chief Russell, and Officers John Ryan
had such conversation with Ewing,
When he was placed on the stand In
the McNulty trial, Ewing told an entire
~ different story. He said that there was
no trouble at his home and that Locklir
was only a boarder at the house. Partly
as a result Of his testimony the city at
torney was unable to proceed with tho
case against Mrs. McNulty and she was
discharged.
