John Donnelly. a well-to-do stockman,
charged with the murder OF Charles

guilty. Their action came as a great
spectators who heard the evidence.
Many expected verdict Of manslaugh-
ter
The principal witness of the closing
day was John F. Donnelly, the defend
ant, who was subjected to a long eX-
animation and cross-eNamnation. The
story told, and the defendants nervous
condition brought tears to many eyes
and was full OF pathos. His story in
part follows: He stated that he was
80 years Of age: that he had lived in
Van Horne enga ging in the stock BUSH
ness for the past five years. prior to
that time having lived on a farm in
this county. He stated that at present
his wife was sick and nuable to act as
a witness in the case. and at this point
the witness broke down and sobbed
and it was some time before the at
torneys were able to proceed. He stated
that he had known Charles Andrews
(for whose murder he Is being trled)
for a period OF six years. two years OF
which he had been associated with U.
S. Fry, grain dealer, in the purchase
Of hogs; that he used the same stock
yards with him and that their troubles
had commenced some two years ago
prior to the fatal mixup. that Andrews
had a reputation for being a quarre-
some and fighting man; that prior to
his striking Andrews he had never be-
fore in his life struck a man. Several
different encounters with Andrews were
brought out In detail where there had
been a good deal OF words In the stock
yards but in only one instance was the
deceased quoted as having threatened.
He stated further that he had not de-
Tended himself on any OF these oc-
casions was because he was afraid OF
the many that Andrews kept him
scared and nervous and that for three
weeks prior to the fatal day that he was
in bad physical shape and that on the
night before that he had been unable
to sleep and was unable to eat that
morning, so bad was his condition that
during that three weeks he had been
unable to attend to his work and had to
have help most Of the time in his bust
ness.
The witness then went on to relate
In detail the three meetings with An

These things, as We all know. are the

Every man requires from every otn-

An important problem of mod
