Aw, sit down. What do you think I am?" “You don't want me to tall you what I think you ar," roared Mr. Walistein. “Do you?” Mr. O'Malley flapped his hands as one brushing away a persistent fly and laughed O'MALLEY ASKS WALLSTEIN TO SIT DOWN AND BE QUIET. “I don't care what he you say, enecred. “I wouldn't belleve what you say, anyway. Sit down. Sit down, I tell you. And keep your hands down, too." There was instant laughter all over the room. Mr, O'Malley acknowledg<d it with a grin and continued to yell, “Aw, sit down and be calm.” Mr. Wallstein started ta show the Commissioner had argucd that Mrs. Katenkamp and others who lived out of the city ought to give up their etands. Mr. O'Malley suid he was in- different to the questions. Mr, Wali- stein asked that his answer be stricken out as unresponsive, Chair- man Meyer so ruled. ‘Anything he asks,” called Mr. O'Malley to Chairman Meyer, “give him—I waived immunity.” “If this is to be a beer garden," snid Mr, Wallstein, “we ought to know it. Mf this witness cannot be decorous the privilege of the witness stand should be denied to him.” . eI don't care,” sbouted Mr. O'Mal- ley, “whether it is or not.” “Get off the stand, O'Malley,” came @ sharp order from tho right aisle crowd. J. J. Halpin of No. 46 Codar Street, @ fairsheaded, youthful looking law- yer, pushed, to the front, waving Mr. O'Malley aside like a baseball umpire “Throw him out.” sheuted some- body in the committee, “I appear as his counsel, Mr. Halpin. “I advise the etand.” Mr. O'Malley stepped down, The audience started cheering and hias- ing. The committee adjourned tor lupeh in considerable confusion, Former Senggor Hrown sald after recess that no immediate drastic ac- tion would be taken against Mr. O'Malley for deserting the stanu, At the opening of the hearing Mr. O'Malley made several speeches. He declared him to leave said the committee was trying “to break both his legs" at the behest of Gov. Miller and the Beef Trust. “The committee has got orders to get me by hok or crook, and it cer- tainly has the croks.” Under examination by former Sen- ator Brown as to the statement that Gov. Miller had offered to muzzle the Meyer Committee, Mr. O'Malley said: “Smith's statement that an offort ‘was made to get me to vote for Hogue “Who said that if you voted for Gov. Miller's candidate for head of the Council of Farms and Markets you would be given immunity here?” pursued Mr, Brown, “John F.

SIGNED PERMIT TRANSFER ON ADVICE OF MINDER. ‘ As a result of the advice of this experienced and representative mun. he suid, he signed the transfer permit. The Commissioner made the point that he was in no way responsible for the long delay in negotiating the transfer under Commissioner Day’s administration. As to the charge of Christian Haslob that he gave $450 to Inspector Winter to procure the signing of a transfer, Mr, O'Malley said the Haslob negotiations were complicated be- cause of the indebtedness for fixtures of the former occupa Again, sald Mr. O'Malley, he consulted’ Mr, Minder, accepted the report of In- spector Winter and signed the per- mit. He denied that he ever encoun- tered Winter and Haslob in a whis- pered consultation in the department offices as described by Mr. Haslob.

It wis reported that a dozen fires were burning in the Catholic section | of the city to-day. More troops wer pouring into the districts where sporadic fighting, with sniping from the housetops and occasional grenade | explosions, continued throughout the night. The death roll from the rots bas mounted to eight, with fifty-four wounded. Bitter fighting between Catholic and loyalist mobs, with police and troops trying to quell the rioting, lasted up until the curfew hour last | the | night. Then habit, more than Crown forces, who already had their hands full, sent many of the rioters to their homes. Sporadic fighting continued, however, with attacks upon Catholics in Unionist quarters and reprisals against loyalists living in Sinn Fein sections of Belfast. Houses of both Unionists and Na- tionalists were fired during the night. Several fire departments were kept busy to-day battling against one conflagration after another. A wind- storm made the fires especially dan- werous in the congested districts. Up unt daybreak, snipers, con- cealed on housetops, kept mittent fire along the street that leads from the centre of Belfast to the Sinn Fein section on the hill Bullets spat through, the darkness ucross the deadline marked out half, way up the hill, and detachments of police were kept busy throughout the night running down the snipers, guided only by the flashes of fire, Three more men were reported as having been killed, while the number in the hospitals was greatly increased.

It 1s said that the Sinn Fein ts now ready to concede separate treatment tor Northern Ireland but will not ac- knowledge the rights of the Belfast Parliament to rule over the counties of Tyrone and Fermanagh, at present within the jurisdiction of that Par- lament. It 1s proposed that the Northern Parliamentary area should cover only the four counties in which Unionist majorities are established.
