The law says, that where man attempM to take a revolver from an other and theother person I shot he Is guilty of Involuntary manslaughter, and were the prisoner indicted for Involuntary man slaughter there would be no trial. A pirn of guilty would have been entered by the de fendant. Dennis McCarthy bad no right to attempt to take this revolver. He did wrong tinuer me excitement of the moment.

The law wnnld thrn vW.. thecrlme to second decree, riiardlni. o it ever uoos Human life jealously. That dofeuso nas gono to the winds. There is one other way to secure an acquittal. The killinir must be denied. Didn't it strike you as a strange thing that he tried to take this revolver from his poor old mother? Didn't they try to leavo you under tho impression that he didn't know where tho revolver was? If he didn't know where it was, why did tho good old mother go in to get it and stick it into her bosom ? 1 care, not. for the sakn nf inrnmi whether he got this revolver from tho drawer or irom his mother. He was In the full possession of his senses and wanted the revolver to use It. I believe his wholo statement is faln ft.r ti. sake of saving himself. Had nnv imn nr tf. .

Tin room was crowed with spectators, includ ing aenntora and member, when the committee was called to order by Chair man William O. Kreps, of Franklin county. The committee Is composed ot Repre sentatives Y. H. KoonU of Somerset. Frank H. McCIain of Lancaster, Michael J. Tlghe of Lusernc, Charles K. Voor hecs of Philadelphia, George It. Dixon of Elk, John II. Fow of Phllailelnhla. John I!. Kendall ot Chester and Robert K. Young of Tioga. McClatu succeed uaptaln Skinner, resigned. Mr. Kreps stnted that on the organiza tion of the committee as it was original ly constituted he was chosen chairman. He thought that each member of the committee ought to have a voice In the selection of the chairman, and that 011 account of his health he would decline to serve. A motion that the resig nation be not accented wns unani mously ndopted. Mr. Krons thanked the committee, and said he had no deire to serve as chairman. Mr. 1-W wbr then elected. The first witness called was Colonel George Nox McCain, staff correspond ent at Harrlsburg of the Phlladelnhin Press. Mr. McCain testified that the member who made the admissions that he was approached was Peter J. Cristc. of Northumberland, who told, the wit ness that he was approached bv an in dividual and told that it would be worth $1,000 to him to vote for the reconsider ation of the bill. Mr. Criste declined at the time to give the name of the Individ unl, but subsequently he admitted to the witness that it was ex-Representative ThouinB Movies, of AVIIkesbarre. who said ho wanted the bill to become a law. as it would help him out In a case In Luzerne county In which he was a de fendant. Mr. Criste asked Moyles to write what he wanted him to sav when he made a motion to reconsider the Tote by which the bill was postponed until March 21. Before Moyles could write the llliss motion to adjourn to prevent a reconsideration of the bill was made and adopted, and nothing further oc curred between Criste and Moyles. John P. Dwycr testified that he wns a staff correspondent of The Press and contributed that portion of the artlvle alleging that Representative John Eng ler, of Lycoming, was corruptly np proached to vote for tho reconsideration or the McCarrell hill. Mr. Engler told the witness tlmt he met Michael J. Cos tello, a former resident of AVIlliamsport, and escorted him to the Bolton House, this city, where they met ex-Senator John J. Coyle, of Schuylkill county. Mr. Coyle told Engler that he understood he was n Roman Catholic, and ORked him to vote for the bill because Archbishop Ryan wanted it to become a law. Wit ness said Coyle told Engr he would pay him ?."00 to vote for the bill, and put his hand in bin pocket and said he would give him $200 nt once. Coyle said he used to do this when he was a member of the legislature, nnd that if Engler would go along on this bill he would "put him In" on several other bills, and that he could make more on the outside than hN salary as n member of the house. Mr. Eiurl.-r re.'u-ed to ac cept tho money nnd left Coyle. The fol lowing Sunday Costello went to Wlll iamsport, hired a team and drove 13 miles out in the countrv to Rni-ter home and tried to Induce' him to vote for the bill. Mr. Engler told Costello that he would do nothing until he had talked with his colleague, Mr. Osier. Bugler's purpobo bolus to get rid of Co-tello. the witness explained. Mr. uwj-er declined to disc bse the name ot the party who told him of the alleged attempt to bribe Envler. Wit ness saw uostello after his visit to Enc- lors home, and was told by Costello that ne Knew tne secrets of the Quay peonle. and that if he could see Senator Cnoh. ran, or wiuinmspnrt. he would toll bim something be ought to know about th senatorial contest and a move the Quay people were about to make.
