THE O'UONIVKIiIi T It I. 111.
At 10 o'clock on Tnosday mornlug,
shoitty after his arrival lu court, Pat'k
O'Donncll, on being arraigned for tho
murder of Morgan Powell, was cau
tioned by tho clerk " to look to his
challenges." Jurors were then called,
and at precisely 20 minutes of 11 o'clk.
the panel was completed by the selec
tion of tho following-
Ueomo Wolf, Manch Chunk.
Hugo lliiiicmtis, Nctquehoninfr.
Frank lloyir, Mlllpoiu
Kilas llcliitzelmaii, liast Pcnn.
l-'redenck Uteher, Hanks.

John swank, Conloort. .
John Handera, Upper Manch Chant.
Jostah Andreas, hast Penn.
John btedmau Mauch t hunk.
Stephen Uotnman, Kast Mauch Ohunki
These aro then sworn, tho District
Attorney opens the caso to them, and
till! trial proceeds. Gen. Charles Al
bright and the rest of the Constellation
of legal talent, who shone at the pre
vious Molly Maguiro trials, being con
spitiuoua by their absence, Mr. Siewcrs
conducts the case single handed.
John Mnlloy was the first witness
called, and related his old, oft repeated
story, which, for reasons of his fami
liarity wo need not repeat. He claims
to hnvo been present at the meeting to
which O'Dniinell conveyed Campbell's
request to have a mine-boss killed.
Malloy's cross-examination, though
occupying until nearly three o'clock,
developed nothing at variance with his
statements mi direct examination.
Biddy Matthews, who at tho time cf
the Powell murder " kepta place," and
at whose house some ut the murderers
stopped un the nlteriioon pievinus to
the murder, then said her say. There
being, however, nothing In It connect
ing the prisoner at the bar witli the
killing ot Powell, the defense waived a
cross-examination.
C. T. McIIiigh, one of the squealers,
testified ns to the parties who, at the
time of tile shooting of Powell, belong
ed to the Aiuient Older in tho nelgli
boihood of Summit Hill. Although a
Molly, and cognizant of all the murders,
he never heard the name of t'nt- O'Don
ncll mentioned In Connection with any
of them.
Alter Swart, vhoo testimony really
amounted to nothing revelant to the
case, had testified,
Charles Muihbarn was called, and In
Ills bungling, rambling way, related all
respecting ills connection with the mur
der of Powell ; but nothing at nil dam.
aging to tlie prisoner was elicited from
him, except that he refi rreil to the time
when to were attempted to be exacted
from 111 m for not assisting at the Pow
ell murder, which fium,, according to the
witness, O'Donncll relused to pay for
the reason that the others iiad stalled
ahead of tho time agreed upon for their
departure ; also, that while temporarily
sojourning iu the Carbon county Jail,
he hud heard Thomas P. Fisher asking
the prisoner through tho healer what
ho had dine with the 15 he had given
him.
Chatles Powell, Sam. Allen, John
Bynon, I!ev. Morgan, Jos. Williams,
Hubert liilslm, Jolui Thomas and Mich.
Myeis then related incidents connected
witli the Powell murder, which closed
the day's proceedings.
Couit convened at the lennlar hour
Wednesday morning, and a number of
additional wltnessts, by whom to provo
the manner, etc., of Powell's death aro
railed. Morgan Price, Engineer Smith,
John Barge, Chas. Powell, Geo. Ilully
und others testified In this regard.
John Slattery Is then called, nnd tes
tifies. On cross examination about the
following is elicited. Sworn to a lie at
the time I testltied in the Campbell
case. Was discharged from Imprison
ment after conviction Knew all about
this Powell murder at the timoUtits
occuriencu ; kept it to myself. It was
1 who posted the Majors. If a body
in astdt commanded n member to do an
act, he had to do It or he would not
have lived lung. Don't think the tliiiif
mentioned with regard to O'Douuel
could have huppcued To hear the con
versation between Fisher and O'Duu
nell we were compelled to resort to
Kerrigan's cell. We went there for that
purpose. There were men iu the organi
zation who knew nothing of Its misdeeds.
Mulhearn translated to me the t lie con
versation between Fisher and O'Don
nell. When 1 testified in the Camp
bell case, 1 did so ns a Molly-for tho
defense. ldt lu duty bound to save
the Mollies. Tho term " Old Miues"
was most generally applied to Summit
Hill.
Ulias. Miilhearir (recalled by tho
Commonwealth) in a veiy Incoherent
milliner attempts to explain suiiietlilug
respecting a certain assertion he had
previously made. The conversation be
tween Fisher nnd U'Douuell, relerred
to, began in English. Pat O'Uonnell
claimed to have paid $5 00, gave hliu
by Fisher, to the Uonohues. Never
went to O'DonueU's house " to put a
head on him." 1 guess wo went to
Kerrigan's cell on put pose to hear Hint
conversation. Was luesent when Yel
low Jack told O'Donncll that he had
fined him live dollars. Doli't know
what C'apt. Linden did with the books
ot our Division. Can't read writing.
John SUltery is then recalled to give
1 a description of the various ''goods"
auu uincers oi tlie a. V. 11.
Prosecution Bests.
Mrs. ltlchurd Boyle, called by de
fense. On the Sunday alter the shoot
ing of 1'owill, Chas. Mulhearn came to
my house, asking mu whether 1 had
heard of it ? He then said he'd as soon
shoot rt man as eat a potato.
Mr. McLaughlin Know Slattery for
some years. But little relianco is to bu
placed upon anything lu says. Also
know Mulhearn, his character Is both
low and mean. Never heard anything
against O'Uonnell.
Faley Bums : Acquainted with Mul
hearn. Know htm 0 or 7 years , lilt
chaiacterls decidedly bad. Know O'
Donnel ; never saw anything bad in
him liom his boyhood up.
Murk Swank Never heard anything
bad of O'Donncll, He was a good,
quiet neighbor.
Jas. Cox : Know Pat. O'Doiinell.'
Never heard aught against Ids cnarac
ter. Innumerable questions are asked
this witness on cross-examination, the
nature of which seemed to iudlcate that
the District Attorney knew taore about
tho witness than ins was willing to own
up to.
Isiael Bachtis : Know O'Donnell
gomo 10 or 17 years ; his character'has
always been good.
Capt. Williams : Know O'Donnell
since 18C0 ; never heard anything bad
of him until a few days after his ar
rest, when I heard that he was a Molly
Magulre.
Mr. tV'alker : Never heard anything
bad about the prisoner
Jiio. Gallagher : Know O'Donnel
some 15 years ; never heard anything
bad of him. My opinion Is that there
are Just as good men among the Molly
Magulres as among any other class of
men.
Mr. McLaughlin, reca'led by tho
Com. Never heard anything bad about
Slattery except what I noticed myself,
Jiio. F. Hlggins t Live at Tamaqua ;
known the prisoner for many years , he
always bore an excellent reputation.
Jiio, O'Brien : Justice ot tho Peace
for 15 years. Know Patty some 20
years. Never heard aught to his dam
age.
Kobert Machoy : Know O'Donnell 7
or 8 years ; Always considered him a
good, reliable man. Couldn't say
whether ho worked on tho day Powell
was killed.
Jas.Kerrlganwas then called to refutb
some of the testimony of James Cox ;
as was Chas. Mulhearn who claimed to
have harbored at tho houso of Cox, with
others, after the killing of Powell, with
the former's full knowledge that they
were tlw murderers of Powell, which
fact had been denied by Cox. At this
tho evidence closed, and shortly there
after, at precisely 4 o'clock, Mr. Kalb
fus began another of his impressive
pleas ; after which District Attorney
Siewers addressed tho Jury until the
hour ot adjournment.
The case was given to the Jury about
10 o'clock a. m., Thursday, and, after
an absence of about four hours, they
returned into court with a verdict of
minder lu the second degree.
The Carbon County Fnlr.
The fourth aundal fair of the Carbon
County Industrial Society took place
during the past week. The display of
manufactures, cattle, horses, poultry,
fruits, vegetables, Ac, was fully up to
that of former years, some of the speci
mens on exhibit being really excellent.
The attendance of visitors the two first
days was slitn, hut on Thursday the
crowd in attendance was simply im

In the nlleruoou the militaiy com
panies gave exhibition drills on the fair
grounds, in which they displayed great
proficiency, eliciting tlie commendation
uf our citizens. The ollicrs ami men
of both companies presented a neat,
clean and pleasing appearance, and
Capt. Ilhoads and Lieut. McDongall,
of tho Slatiugtou ltities, and Captain
Keck and Lieut. Day, of the Custar

the very soldierly and geutlemany

Fire nt Ilenver Mentlow.
Fkidat, Oct. fi, 1877. About three
o'clock this morning the good peoplo of
tho town of Beaver Meadow were
aroused by tho alarm of fire, and upon
looking out saw that there was causo
for the alarm. Your correspondent,
who thought tho watchman at No. 1,
Colcraltie, made a mistake by blowing
the whistle too early for six o'clock,
became convinced by tho length of tho
blow, that something was wrong,
Hastily donning a few old clothes we
repaired to tho scene of destruction, and
found that the flro demon hnd already
destroyed the boot and shoe manufac
tory of Messrs. It II. Lanynn and J.
D. Arner. Shortly nfter arriving at
the sceno, the Odd Fellows Hall was
found to be in danger. It soon caught
lire and thn tlames soon attacked the
house and residence of Mrs. McKoy,
which burned to the ground In a short
time. The cause of the lite Is unknown,
but from appearances And from what
we cah glean, must have been the Work
of an incendiary. Mr Lanyon's house,
lu renr of the manufactory, was also
destroyed. Mr. Lanyon's house and
factory building were valued at about
two thousand dollars, while in manu
factured and unmanufactured stock,
machinery! fixtures, etc., Messrs. Lan
yon nnd Arher lose about seven thous
and dollars, only partly covered by in
surance. Mrs. Washburne, i widow
lady, whoso husband was killed in the
wnr of the rebellion, had her property
Insured in thd sum ot live hundred dol
lars, about one-thiid cf her loss. Mrs.
McKoy's house, we are informed, was
Insured for ond thousand dollars. Her
loss cannot be less thdn two thousand,
as her house was, without exception,
one uf, If not the best, In Beaver Mead
ow. To-day the sceno of the tire, which
was one of tho prettiest In town, pres
ents an nppearance anything other than
pleasant to the people. Had tho Odd
Fellows Hall, which at best would not
bu much of a loss, been torn down when
Mrs. Wnshburne's house took lire, and
there was plenty of tlmo to do it, thtJ
residence ot Mrs. McKoy could have)
been easily saved. The wind was very
strong during tho Ore, and caused the
flames to reach out along the square
until the end was reached. Mr. John
Wear's house, on the other side, escap
ed, with water, labof nud attention.
The loss attending tho burning of Odd
Fellovs Hall Is about six hundred dol
lars. Tho lire was first discovered on
the first floor of tho shoe factory. Years
have elapsed since the people ot this
town had tho exciting and unpleasant
duty of attending a midnight fire, and
wlille we sympathize with our friends,
it is not out of place to say that where
there are so many spirited citizens ns
here, last night's lire may, and should
be, a warning to prepare now for the
future. A fire company could bo easily
formed and equipped, it not with an
engine, with a pump nnd hook and lad
der, requirements that would bo ot
great use In tlmo ot need. Ilazleton
