primary In 1917. He testified he wa on
the street near the Klnl6tter Club and
heard the shot fired, which was testified
to have been the signal for the raid.'
The shot, Feldmati ttstlllcd, appeared
to have been fired from the Inside. He
saw a crowd rush out of the building,
hut did not see any raiders go In. Kejd
man went In and saw Sergeant Hogan
and the cripple Darrlsh, who were as
ranked. Ho denied the Uatlmony given by
Hogan, Darrlsh and others who were In
the clubhouse, and denied he attacked
either Hogan or Darrlsh.
In his testimony Keldman brought
out that the Commonwealth failed to
call some Important witnesses to testify
about the raid on tho club. Keldman
testified neither Hogan nor Barrlsh
could say who-attacked them when they
were being taken to the Pennsylvania
Hospital.
In nnswer to a qucslon from Mr. Tau
lane, Fcldman expressed the belief that
the trouble In the Flnletter Club was
caused by club members fighting Inside.
