ACCIDENT UNCOVERED
CASEMENT CONSPIRACY
Farmer's Water Power Was
Stopped and He Discovered
Collapsible Boat on Trip
to Well
LONDON. June 27.
Only the fact that the water supply In
tho homo of a Kerry County farmer ran
out on the night before Good Friday led to
tho uncovering of Sir Roger Casement's
plot to head a revolution In Ireland.
John McCarthy, a Currngh farmer, when
Casement's trlnl wns resumed today, re
vealed that fact.
McCarthy on his trip for water saw drift
ing the collapsible boat In which Sir Roger
and hU confederates had landed from a
German submarine
McCarthy testified that ho found a dag
ger In the boat and noticed the footprints
of three persons In tho sand. His little, girl
found three pistols nearby. Ho sent one of
his laborers, Pat Drlscoll, to the nearest
barracks to Inform the police.
Mnry Gorman, living on a nearby farm,
told of Beelng three men go by tho farm
yard shortly aftor dawn on Good Friday
morning. Casement smiled when she Iden
tified him as one of the trio.
Sergeant Thomas J. O'Hearn, of the Irish
constabulary, who fount! Casement hiding
In an old fort and arrested him, admitted
on cross examination that a large part of
Ireland was arming In preparation for do
mestic war. Ho said It was common knowl
edge that large quantities of arms had been
Imported into Ulster.
The prosecution closed Its case this
afternoon after producing evidence to show
that the defendant had carried on an acthe
antl-Brltlsh propaganda among Irish
prisoners In Germany.
