Pronta, 1ll, Dee. 20,~The defense in the Cunningham whisky case ars making a strong effurt to make their casa respectable. so they rummoned Lewls Howell, the President ol tha Sccond Nattonal Bank, a feeble old man whom no one, however, charged with being connected with the Beven-Up Clul, not even as an honor- ary member. They drew out of him the fact that he had never heen in Hotchkiss® store, where the whisky was stored, while ft was there, In thelr uext move they got a Black eye. They bave been trylng o prove that there mever was any whisky fn. the Collector’s offlce, never any drinking there, and that Todd's tale of private eurzling within the funer templs was a wild fictton. They put Simon J. Kildaft on the stand to prove this., Kildutf is o prominent younyr man, and universally iiked. He testltied that, finding the clerks slow In issuing stamps, he scut up a demijohn of whisky to euvouruge them, and this at thelr own sugpreation: that afterwards ho drank out of the same demijohn, andout of a jne that was there 8 & prescut from another distiliery. Ilo couldn't remember whether he had drunk with Knowles or not In the Collector’s office, but be might have dono so. This evidenco was ro- Tuctantly glven, und hae refused point blank to atato how many times ho had drunk with Knowles at other places. This fully corrobo- rates Todd's testimony In regard to the drink- Ingin the Collector's oftice, and in regard to both jugs of whisky which he testificd wers sent there. ‘The following fs the testimony of Conrad B. Buss: “1am an employe of Lindsny & McCoy.

Kidaft was next called. He teatifed that his foreman, Bill Mclean, told him that they were very alow in (ssuing stamps out of the Collecior's oflice, and that ‘s httlo whisky would lhelp things along. Bohe sent up & dem!folin to the Col- Iector’s office. He did not consider this bribery, Atterwards ho had been there, und had druunk wiit of this same demijolin at least once, and porhaos more, 1o bad also drunk out of a juir shnflarty jresented to the Collector's oflice by Wilker, ‘Thore was a canl on this jug labeled’ Corn-sod Yot ton Toda By dodt This wos {n accordsnce with Todd's testimony, even to the poetry, He drank at least once out of that jug {n ‘the Colicctor’s oflice. e re- fused to say how many times he had drunk with Kunowles tut of the Collector's ofice.
