Sr—e— | OMAHA, Feb. 21.—The courtroora was | crowded when James Callahan, the al- | leged kidnaper of Edward Cudahy Jr., was arraigned for a hearing before Judge | Vinsonhaler in the County Court this | morning. Three complaints—grand lar- | ceny, robbery and false imprisonment— | were read to him by the County Attorney, to all of which he pleaded not guilty. The | court asked Callahan if he had engaged | counsel, to which he replied that he had | had no opportunity to do so, and the | hearing was continued until Monday at 10 a. m., at which time, Callahan sald, he would be ready for trial. His bail was | fixed at $2500 on each count, which he | could not furnish. Mrs, George F. Wittus to-day positively | identified Callahan as the man she saw | | repeatedly in the neighborhood of the | Melrose Hill house where Cudahy was held a prisoner. Various means were em- | | ploved 'to shake her judgment, but with- out effect, Mrs, Wittus picking Callahan out of a line of five prisoners as they marched by her at the City Jail.
