LAUER'S DEFENSE BECUN. The Fifth Day of the Great Trial—The State Re COLORING THE BELL EVIDENCE. Negro Witnesses Called to Get Away With that “Cranberry Sauce"—A Savage Encounter—The De- tailed Evidence, Friday's Work, “The state will your honor," said States Attorney Simeral when court opened at ten o’clock yesterday morning. The evidence for the prosecution had been concluded and the taking of testimony was turned over to the defense. Lauer oceupied his usual seat by Messrs Savage and Thurston. His sister, Miss Mincrva Lauer, sat immediately behind him, The crowd in the lobby was not as large, shough the female prescnce was more noticeable than on any other day yet. Lee A, Williams, a saddle-colored mu- ‘atto, was the first witness for the de- tense. He testified to THE ALLEGED PERIURY comruitted by the washerwoman, Emma Bell. The witness testitied that a day or two after the preliminary examination in police court Emma Bell was at his house and said that she had just committed a great wrong, that she had sworn to some- thing she knew nothing about. She had ainat John Lauer whom she had never scen before. That she was to re- ceive $100 for swearing as she did. “My wife asked ner, ‘How could you ch o thing?' " She rephied, ‘L did it, 1 know, but T am aorr{ for it.”” “Iid Mrs. Bell furthermore say to you that she had never been in the Lauer house, and that if she had to find it that night she would have to sleep outof doors?” asked Jadge Thurston. *'She did,” replied the witne “'Yuu may take the witness, vin subjected Wil amination, Williams testi- narriage of hiself and wife i Topeka, Kan., in 1884, and their sub- sequent separation, which occurred a few months ago. “What caused this separation,” asked General Cowin. “We couldn’t agree,” replied the wit. ness, “Yon had trouble?”’ 8.’ “What trouble was that?' “Oh a good deal of trouble. “That’s not answering my question,” replied the general. “Wasit your fault or her's?” “‘Her's I guess,’” answered the witness. all right? You wer “I guess I was.” At another time Williams testified that the first time he ever heard Mrs. Bell tell about the case was one evening a day or two before the preliminary ex- amination, when the lady came in and remarked that she had just sworn to a lie. The witness said that he was read- ing a paper when Mrs. Bell came in—a paper which he thought contained an account of Lauer’s testimony on the pre- liminary examination, “Your'e sure you were reading Lauer's tefltimnu{, are yout" asked Mr. Cowin. *Yes, I am almost sur: “And Mrs. Bell said that night that she had sworn to a lie in police court,did she?" “*Yes, or something of that sort,’” re- plied the witness, shifting uneasily. Under further cross-examination the witness testified that he had first told of Emma Bell’s confession to a man named McLaughlin who had come to him and asked him about it. McLaughlin came tothe place where he (Williams) was working and the two discussed the ‘mat- ter. fterwards he went with Mec- Laughlin to Judge Thurston’s office in the Omaha National bank building on South Thirteenth street. “How many times did you see this man McLaughlin before you went with him to Judge Thurston’s oflice” “*Several times.” *Did he treat you to anything?” “I don't drink.” “Did he ever give yon anything at ally” “‘He-gave me a cigar nearly every time he met me."’ “Did he give you anything else?” “‘What doyou mean?" asked the wit- ness uneasily. 1s: Did 1 mean wh s YOU EVER ANY MONEY from McLaughlint” “No, sir, I never did.” “Any clothes?” “No, sir, I buy my own clothes.” “Then McLaughlin gave you nothing but cigars—no money nor clothes?’’ “He did not,"”” answered the witness. After a few more questions General Cowin censed his cross-examination. HE WAS MUDDLED, TOO. Jesse Butler, another negro, though very much darker than the precedin‘z witness, testified to Emma Bell's alleged perjury. He stated that Mrs. B. had on one occasion told him and his wife that she had sworn to a lie in testifying against Lauer, that she had never seen Lauer and that she was to be _paid good for swearing as she did. When asked why she done this Mrs. Bell replied that she was a poor widow woman and had a hard time of getting along. The defense was then through with the witness and turned him over for cross-examination by the prosecution. **Those are the exact words that Emma Bell said, are they '’ asked General Cowin of the witness, *“They are,” *Word for word "’ “Yes, sir, word for word." *'You are not mistaken?" ‘1 know [ am nof “‘You have gotthem firmly fixed in your memory, have you!"" I have,” replied the witnesslpositively. “Now repeat the first guestion put to you by Mr, Thurston, containing the statement which you claim was made by Mrs. Bell,” snid General Cowin. *'I object to that,” shouted Mr. Thurs- on, jumping to his feet. The objection was not sustained and Mr, Butler was ordered to repeat as nearly as he could the question contein- lnfil\ rs, Bell's nlleged statement. e failed radically, His brilliant mem- ory went back on him and he muttered a fow incoherent words, Despite his claim that he knew Mrs. Bell's every and exact word, he could not repeat threee of them consecutively, He was completely broken down. “'So that's all you can do, is it®" asked General Cowin, The witness answered nothing, but Mr Thurston retorted, *“That's as good n you could have done.” “Oh, I have no doubt of it,” replied General Cowin sareastieally. *'Butler has done much better than 1 could. He's a good one." urther cross-examination revealed the fact that Butler was a very much mud- dled witness. Hecontradicted himself in several notable instances. Mrs. Josse Butler was next called to the etand. She testified to having heard the confession from Mrs. Bell, and re. Bfiuled by the preceding witness, Mr. utler, Mrs. B was ALSO BADLY MIXED UP on cross-examination. When subjected . to asevere fire of questions from General win, she said that as she remembered %hfl.hfl bad said she bad told some- thing she had no . business to and wished she had mever had anything to do with the case: statement of Mrs, Bell's utterances which was 80 vastly differently from the first account given by the witness, that Gen- eral Cowin’'s features relaxed into a smile of grim delight. Mrs. Batler further stated on cross- examination that Mrs. Bell had said that she did not want to testify further in the ease and _had offered her (Mrs. Butler) $2 to go and get some morphine to make her sick, so she couldn’t be taken into court, I refused togo for morphine and then she said she would get drunk by drinking whisk d the witness, Miss Delia Blessington, a rather good 1z blonde, then took the stand testified that 10 November of 1886, living at the house of her uncle, ) Quinlun, she heard Mrs. Bell say to Mrs, Williams: I ‘ful a_dollar for swearing lave got r I never s John mination of this witness nothing new.

MRE. BELL WAS THERE. During all the time that the negro nesses and M Blessington were t ing to Mrs. Bell's alleged confession of perjury, Mrs, Bell was sitting near the bailifi’s desk, eagerly drinking in every word that was said. Her little three-year-old child played about the court room, now running between the legs of the distinguished counsel, now n|filing the coat tails of the stenographer and again caressing, in a_very familiar style, various portions of Judge Neville’s anatomy. 1) Mr. Lee w: yestarday af mony reve James Ri THE AFTERY placed on t| ernoon, but | rd nothing new.¥ ards, an ex-employe of the nailworks, was next called. He ified to having gone down in the cellar last night with Mr. Thurston, and_made ex- TON, 2 tand again urther testi- amination of the cellar. The cellar window worked very f and Mr. Thurston, the witness stated, made his exit very easily through it. [In this connection it might be stated that this line of testimony 1s being intro- duced to show tl burglar_ which Lauer claims to hay at in August, 1845, might have e A through the 4ivlll:ir window, as Lauer claimed that he did. In another braneh of the testimony Richard said that on the Monday even- ing after the funeral, i er's hou He saw Lauer there faiking cordially with Mr, Peter Iler and Messrs. Gallagher and McShane. When they left he shook hands with them and als tionately bado Mre, ller good:by The same witness testitied that on the night that Messrs. Ewing, Cowin and Estelle made their experiment with the stove, the fire was very bright. At 2 o'clock the next morning the fire was dulled down and did not give out light enough to distin- Fuiuhn human form by. In three or4 hours after the stove was filled with coal for the night, the light would be little or nothing. The witness also invited several prominent citizens to make similar experiments—among them W. V. Morse, Captain Richardsand Herman Kountze. In all these experi- ments the isinglass of the stove was per- fectly bright and clean, just as it was on the night of the tragedy. On cross-examination, the witness tes- tified that he had known Lauer for five vears, and was a good friend of his. He had called on Lauer several times, but principally on matters of business. Duving her stay in the Lauer house, the witness saw Miss Laner clear the isinglass in the stove several times. She generally did it in the morn- ing, when she did her other house work. “You woke up at 2 o’clock in the morn- ing, when you found the coals dulled down, did yon?" asked General Cowin, “Yes," said the witne: did,” he same 2 o'clock,” remarked the oross-examiner, sarcastically. “Was there any light in the room¥"” “No. “Then how did you know it was two o'clock.” “T guessed at it,” replied the witness flushing up. “What made o'clock?" “I'don’t know. 1 can generally tell how long I have been sleeping.' ‘The witness was further examined about the condition of the isinglass in baseburner stoves. He thought that a stove with isinglass would remain bright for four weeks without growing dim. HE MADE EXPERIMENTS, D. M. Sells, an attorney, testifies to ex- periments which he had made with a re- volver, as to the powder marks left on sheets of paper by shots fired at different distance: These ranged all the way from fo to nine feet, and all of the papers showed more or less preforation from powder. When Sclls finished his t(‘slimon{. Mr, Thurston commenced snapping the re- volver, which was empty, in the direc- tion of Lawyer Baldwin, Who occupied a geat near thoe reporters’ stand “Here,” exclaimed that individual, figeting nervously on his seat, ‘‘don’t point that thing this way.” Mr. Thurston quickly dropped the you guess it was?2 *“‘thing. W. A, L. Gibbon testified to being one of the party of gentlemen who made o test of the stove in the Lauer house. On one oceasion there was a bright light with the drafts open. A person lying on the bed in the sleeping room could distin- guish by the light of thestove the articles of furniture in the next room. A person who crossed the threshold betwen the two rooms and entered the sleeping apartment could not be distinguished, ex- cept in the dim outlines. A man could not be distingnished from a woman. The second experiment made by the witness and his associates took place a lunar month after the first. Mr, J.J O’Connor, Mr. Ben Gallagher, Mr. M. Donovan, Mr. W, V. Morse and Mr. Her- man Kountze were present. The cur- tains and blinds were down. One of the E:\r!y would lie down and sheets would e wrapped around the other $«»uucmon by turns, who would approach the bed from the dining room. After the figure reached the bedroom, it ceased to be dis- tinguishuble and one couid not have even told whether it was that of a male or fe- male, In the further room, where the stove was, this form would be t\lmnzuish- able only 1n 1its bare outlines, The light from the singlass was not really bright. On the evening of the third expirement the curtains and blinds in the bedroom were down, the blinds in the dining room bumf open and the curtain down. The result was about the same as that of the vreceding experiment. Mr. W. V. Morse was wrapped in a sheet and paraded about in the dining room. His features could not be distinguished by a person in the bedroom, On cross-examination, ‘Mr, Gibbon stated that by the light of the stoye he could not have read the print in & paper or - disting, the ¢ast 0B & man's THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, back.

J. O'Connor was culled as the next witness and testified to the ex) ments denoted by Mr. Gibbon in his " te timony. His testimony need not be given at all extensively, as it was substantiaily a repetition of that of Mr. Gibbons. During Mr. O'Connor’s examination by Judge Savage, a little episode occurred which served to relieve the tedium of the afternoon’s proceedings. Judge Savage had |m[lul}m ss 4 question which vas rather a ‘‘fi General Cowin Judge Neville sustained the tion with the remark, *‘I don’t like ions which have atendency to ‘brace witness.” *Your honor,”’ ¢ age, popping to hi ulated Judge Sav- feet with a very red face, ‘'l except to your ruling.

Almost daily there may be seen upon our streets at some publie corner, or in some grocery store whose accommodating owner has made room for him, some one of these amusing street fakirs with an open-mouthed crowd about him, attracted by his glib-told stories or by his sleight of hand performances, which are given pre- liminary to an attempi to sell some uack medicine or other patent nostrum, Some of these fellows will chew cotton and breathe flame until their mouths ap- pear veritable Vesuvius in fall eruption, and then sell a tooth wash that will make the blackest teeth a Pcnrly white, and before your eyes will prove its eflicacy upon the incisors of any offering gamin, Others will make a stump speec upon any of the lve topics of the day, introductory to the sale of another wash that will render all metals like burnished gold, Many othei f these street fakirs are turning dustrious penny with the phosphate bik- ing powders, and where permitted to take their stand in a grocery store will amuse the servant girls and the fan-lov- ys by the hour with their little g scientific gabble, show- g the marvelous things their goods will .
