The Philadelphian was agitated from the minute he entered the court-room. to be continuously asked to speak loud- er. He said he had a very bad cold and| '*; Ps his voice was very faint.

The affidavit also re- lated, sald O'Brien, how he had given dinners to Macaluso and had asked him to go to Philadelphia. The decorator then told how Dowling e@aid that the case was one ct blackmail, and if Mr. O'Brien wanted to hand over any more money he would have to do it himsel MeCarthy, Dowling’s clerk, @nd Buckley, the lawyer, who, it is alleged, tis: fuoney, both gave him this same ad vice, said O'Brien, The witness told of giving Hansen receipt for instalment lawyer He clasped and un-) ‘ clasped ‘his hands nervously and had He said Hansen read the} J in the nandling of the | THE EVENING WORLD.
