She had known O’Sullivan for about
seven years, and on May 5, of this year,
she was at her sister’s, having gone
there on the afternoon of the 4th. Af

Mrs. W halen’s husband was fa the sit

ness and her sister returned to the house
after 10 o’clock and were let in by James
Minnehan. She and her sister Bat up
reading for over an hour, and then went
up stairs to O’Sullivan’s room for a cot.
The light was burning in the room and
O’Sullivan. and Moicahy were in bed.
Witness spoke to the men and took the
cot down stairs. She was positive that
O’Sullivan was in the house when she
left at half past 8, and also that he was
in his room when she got back. The
witness also testified as to the presence
of the Hylands there on Sunday evening.
O’Sullivan’s Boarding Mistress.
Mrs. Tom Whalen was called and cor
roborated the evidence of her sister as
to the whereabouts of O’Sullivan on May
4 and 5. Mrs. Whalen further testified
that she heard O’Sullivan previous to
May 4 speak of his contract with Dr.
Cronin at the supper table to the men.
Witness said that on the day of the
discovery of Cronin’s body Mr. Clancy,
The New York Herald correspondent,
came into the house and made some re
mark about the discovery of Dr. Cron
in’s body, and said: “I have a cab at the
door and want you to go with me and
identify the remains.” Mr. O’Sullivan
said: “Why should I go with you? I
don’t know who you are and never saw
you before today. If a police officer
comes and asks me to go I will go with
him.” The cross examination of this
witness was long and animated, but
elicited nothing important.
A Witness for Burke.
The next witness was Matt Danahy, a
saloon keeper at Clark street and Chicago
avenue. On the night of May 4 he
came on duty at 7 o’clock and relieved
his barkeeper. Martin Burke, P. H.
Nolan, financial secretary of Camp 20,
and Patrick Cooney were in the saloon
at the time. Martin Burke was in the
saloon for about three hours, the wit
ness said. William Coughlin and John
O’Malley came into the saloon during
that time and met Burke. On the cross
examination the fact was developed
that the witness was a member of Camp
20 and had known Burke for a year.
The witness denied that he was out
riding that night until 11:30, and ad
mitted that he was supplying Burke's
meals to him, and that he visited Win
nipeg some time ago for the purpose of
“looking around.” He denied that he
had ever sent money to Burke at Win
nipeg.
Beggs Visited Harrison.
Justice D. J. Lyon testified that on
Feb. 20 he and the defendant, Beggs,
went to Indianapolis to urge upon Presi
dent Harrison the appointment of a
friend of Beggs’ to the office of sub
treasurer. They returned together
Feb. 80.
James Lyman, a member of Camp
20, testified to having been present at
the meeting of Feb. 8; that Capt. O’Con
nor declared the report of the Buffalo
trial had been read in another camp;
that a resolution was offered to appoint
a secret committee to examine into the
statement and that the whole matter
was referred to the district officer.
Walter Gibbon corroborated the testi
mony of Lyman.
The Inner -Circle.
Hon. John Finnerty then took the
Stand. He said he was once a member
•of congress from the Second district of
Illinois and at present the editor of an
- American weekly paper with Irish sym
pathies. He had been, he said, a mem
ber of the United Brotherhood and of
Camp 96—now known as Camp 20—since
1870 and was still. He had known the
defendant Beggs for three years, but he
bad never heard or known of an inner
circle.
Matthew P. Brady, a well known at
torney. next testified to being a member
of Clan-na-Gael Camp 96 since 18S5, but
bad never heard of an inner circle.
Jcfcn S. Mullen, for thirteen years an
inspector of customs, said that he joined
the United Brotherhood in 1878. He
was a member of what was known as a
Cronin camp; attended a national con
vention as a delegate with Cronin sym
pathies. He was at present senior
guardian of Camp 298 and had never
beard of an inner circle. He thought
he.would know of such a circle if one
existed. He said that at the conven
tion of 18S8 an effort was made to keep
the name of the executive body secret.
M. J. Keane, a member of Camp 20,
said that he, too, had never heard of an
inner circle.
U»eg»’ Alibi. |
FranciR P. Gleason, a county con
stable, testified to being present at a
Republican ward meeting last spring.
Among others present was the defend
ant John F. Beggs, whom the witness
introduced to his friends. Beggs and
be were at the meeting from 8 o'clock
until after 9 o’clock.
“What night was that?”
“May 4.”
This was Beggs’ alibi. It was not for

Maj. Joe Stewart’s Story.
The mystery, it is reported, has at
length been unraveled by a newspaper
man, who explained the matter to the
gentleman who wielded the umbreha,
and secured from him his version of the
affair and permission to publish the
same. The gentleman is none other
than Maj. Joe Stewart, the genial
southerner who has gained considerable
notoriety by reason of his efforts in be
half of the Confederate Soldiers’ home
at Austin, Tex.
Maj. Stewart told, a United Press re
porter that he struck with his umbrella
on the night of Oct. 25 a man who had
insulted his wife, who was with him at
the time, but that he had no idea that
he injured the man. Subsequent de
velopments, however, made him think
that possibly the man Flynn, who re
cently died from the effects, as was
claimed, of an umbrella stab, was the
man he had chastised on that occasion.

Later in the day it was learned that
the man struck by Stewart could not

The Desecration of Rome.
In order not to wander too far from
the main subject I will cite one item
only of these annals of destruction. 1
will mention what happened - in the val
ley of the Forum between 1540 and 1649.
In less than ten years' time the men em
ployed by the contractors of St. Peter’s
to search for building materials crossed
the valley of the Forum from end to end,
like an appalling meteor, destroying, dis

Monssa Bey, the Knrdlsli Robber, Mur
derer and Perpetrator of Many Other
Crimes Will Soon Be Brought to Trial—•
Germany Increasing Her Army—Other
Foreign News.
London, Nov. 21.—If the recent visit
of Emperor William, of Germany, to
Constantinople has been productive of
no other result it lias certainly been the
means of inducing the sultan to see to
it that Moussa Bey, the Kurdish rob
ber, murderer and perpetrator of every
vile crime known to the region over
which he lately terrorized, receives at
least a portion of the unnishmeut he de
serves, for he certainly could nob be
adequately punished and yet live.
Several times since the clamor of the
continental press led the sultan to call
Moussa to Constantinople ostensibly
for trial for the offenses with which he
is charged, it has been announced from
the Turkish capital that the court hud
decided that the case was properly un
der the jurisdiction of the Albanian
tribunals, that the prisoner had been
incarcerated pending further investiga
tion; that he had been acquitted and
that this and that action had been
taken, apparently for the purpose of
courting public and official opinion
abroad, and obviously with the intention
of telling him go scot free if such a
thingwere possible.
It now appears that one of the points
insisted upon by the kaiser while con-
ferring.with the sultan was that Moussa
should be placed upon trial as soon as
possible, and if found guiity punished
without delay. This the snltan prom
ised to do, and the first step toward the
fulfillment of the promise is the im-
E visonmeat of the Ixurdi-h caitiff, who

Some of them are believe ! to have been

others were intimidated to an extent
forcing them to flee to places of refuge,
beyond ihe Turkish borders, and still
others are thought to have been mur

Whether any of them will be forth

at Constantinople can say. The doubt'

not likely that other victims of Monssa’s
b vitality can be induce l to journey to
tho capital for the purpose of testifying
against him, but it'is plain that the Ot
toman government is now confronted
with the necessity of indicting some
punishment upon Moussa and doubtless
he will be found guilty of a few minor
offences and acquitted of the greater
ones, bemuse of the lack of evidence to
convict him.

A Groat Question Settled.
At the high school, in the first class,
an interesting debate was had on the
subject, “Is the Mind of Woman Inferior
to That of Man?” Andrew M. Bush, Jr.,
and Harry Macomber took the affirma
tive side of the question and’ Miss Julia
Hunt and Miss Edna Tobey the negative
6ide. The girls argued that the most
temperance lecturers were men. To this
the girls retorted that it was easier to
talk than to work. The boys remarked
that the average weight of man’s brain
was greater than that of woman’s. “A
fool’s brain weighs more than a wise
man’s” was the answer of the girls. “But
wo said the average weight,” replied the
boys. A girl said: “I think quality
should be considered rather than quan
tity.” The, clincher came when one of
the boys arose and said: “As I under
stand it, God is a man, and if the mind
of woman is superior to man God would
have been a woman.” At this climax a
vote waa taken and favored the affirma
tive side.—New Bedford Standard.
