HUGH M'LAUGHLIN
IS NOW ON TRIAL
Gsve Damaglog Testimony Against Him
self la a Highway Robbery Case.
BY DIRECTION OF THE t'OfllT HE
WAS THEN INDICTED I'OR THE
OI-TENCE HE IS NOW ON TRIAL
FOR-KRANZ SCIUTENEMAN CON
VICTED OF HAVING FELONIOCSLY
WOfNDED PATROLMAN JOHN D
THOMAS-REMANDED TO THE CfS
TODY OF THE SHERIFF.
Hugh McLaughlin, nf Keyser Valley,
was called yesterday before Judge Ed
wards to answer tho charge of selling
liquor on Sunday. He was a witness
for Edward Dacev and James Walsh,
of the Continental, who were tried and
convicted last term of highway rob
bery and are now serving a long term
In the penitentiary.
In order to help Pncoy and Walsh
along he swore that thev were In his
place drinking at lhi time the robbery
wns alleged, nnd they had been then'
long enough before and after the time
llxed to set tip an alibi for them, pro
viding, of course, that the Jury believed
McLaughlin. The robbery was com
mitted on a Sunday night. That, tho
Jury failed to do, and to make things
still worse, Judge Edwards made out a
bench warrant for McLaughlin to hold
him on his iiu u admission for the
charge upon which he was yesterday
put on trial.
District Attorney Jones put a halt
dozen Hungarians on the stand nnd tho
most of them testified, though not In
the most convincing manner, that they
were In the defendant's place on tha
night of the robbery and had either
whiskey or beer to drink nnd paid for
It.
MR. JONES' OFFER.
Mr. Jones then offered to prove that
McLaughlin admitted ho void liquor on
that Sunday. Tho evidence In the high
way robbery case was taken by Sten
ographer L. M. Schoch, who Is absent
from the city nnd has enlisted or is
about to enlist In the I'nlted States
army. The notes hnvo not been trans
scribed, and there Is no one who can
decipher them except the man who
wrote them. Court Stenographer Wil
lis D. Coston was called as a witness to
prove that Mr. Schrch Is not to lie had
and that ho, himself, cannot trans
cribe the notes.
Attorneys Joseph O'Riien and H. W.
Thayer, representing McLoughlin, ob
jected then to the evidence of any wit-nes-t
by whom It wns proposed to prove
that McLoughlin made such an admis
sion. The objection wns on the ground
that tho record wns the best evidence.
Judge Edwards overruled the objection
and Martin AWyshner was called to
testify that ho heaid McLoughlin make
the admission. Mr. Woyshner would
not swear positively and his testimony
was stricken out
Detective Steve Dyer was called for
the same purpose ns Mr. Woyshner,
nnd Mr. O'HrlT. objected on the
ground that the lav does not require a
defendant to testify against himself.
Tin' evidence of McLoughlin in the rob
bery case would virtually be used to
convict him out of his own mouth.
Judge Edwards decided the objection
was a good one and the evidence of
Dyer was not Jieard. The common
wealth then closed its case. The de
fense will be opened today.
SCHI ENEMAN GUILTY.
Franz Schuencmnn was found guilty
In manner and form as charged in the
Indictment for feloniously wounding
Patrolman John D. 1 nomas. chief
Gurrcll made an affidavit to the court
Immediately after couit convened that
he had been credibly Informed of the
defendant's intention to debark for
some distant recruiting station and
i join the Fnited States army if the Jury
found a verdict of gulltv. He would
' be at liberty until Saturdcy. Judg"
Edwards directed the sheriff to take
t him In charge and It was done. Tho
I defense he nlfeied wns that he had
; been set upon by two or three In the
crowd in the saloon, and was using the
knife In self defense. He did not know
th n(Ii"er. but thought. In the excite
ment of the light, that he was one of
the assailants.
William Conrnv, of Mlnooka. was let
off easy for beating Motormnn Clea
son. He was lined $10 and costs, and
got out under the insolvent law. John
Kupp was fopnd guilty of being the
father ot Kflc Mohel's child. He was
acquitted of the charge cf seduction.
The Jury In the case agaln.u Alder
man Kelly went out at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon, and after supper they were
out for an airing with the tlpsta't who
bad them In charge. At a lale luiur
last night there was a light burning in
their room In the court house. They
would not be the tlrst jury to disagree
in the same case.

Wlnfred Moran. of tho West Side.

Gunster on tho charge of perjury pre
ferred by W. K. Heck, of Moscow.
