ation bad led him to believe tbat tbe mal-

necessary be says to remove tbe larynx

THE “ANTIS••• TRIAL
Continued In tbe Federal Court" and
Synopsis of the Evidence adduced.
Tbe enquiry Into the Interference with
the prohibitionists’ meeting waqcontin-
ued yesterday in tbe Federal court room
and there was a large crowd of citizens
present. The evidence adduced was
mainly sbowlngthe dirorderly cbaracter
of the meeting which has been fully
shown in the reports. The Light there-
fore avoids all evidence beyond tbat
directly for or against tbe accused.
Mr. W. H. Brooker wbo signed the af-
fidavit was present and examined. The
salient points of bls evidence was that
be saw policemen there who made no
effort to preserve order and one he mo-
tioned to simply laughed at blm. He
saw Mr. Callaghan near tbere at the
time. A drunken negro was there curs-
ing prohibitionists and was not arrested.
He saw other drunken men tbere and
men apparently under the influence of
whiskey. He saw Ixxikwood and Hertl
tbere yelling wltb the crowd tbat jeered
him down. Ixxrkwood jeered and kept
Ids hands in motion. Tbe crowd jeered
the prohibits nbts.downe I the meeting
by yells and calls and at no time could
tbeir speakers be heaid.
In cross examination the witness
said he could not say what Herff cried
whether he wm yelling for order or not
a considerable part of tbe affidavit wm
baaed upon hearsay evidence. Mr.
Tinsley told blm tbe mayor applauded
tbe egg tbrowlng. 8. B. Wi' ibell in-
formed him that tbe eggs were in tbe
Degener-Herfl' crowd and that for
nearly an bour before the meetlnir free
whisky wm liberally given rounu and
hinted tbat Degener Herfl and lx>ck-
wood were the leaders but he could not
swear tbat tbe eggs came from them.
He did not know that a conspiracy was
made to assault Mr. Sutherland.
C. M. Kingsley saw Mayor Callaghan
at tbe meeting and heard him state that
be anticipated trouble tbere and that
tbe reason he did not try to stop it;
he wm talking to me ana another gen-
tleman. I told him that If he anticipat-
ed trouble he should try to stop It. Tbe
mayor asked me if I thought he could
stop tbe people yelling when they were
all against it.
On cross examination be adhered to
wbat tbe mayor said and affirmed that
it was said in the presence of M. Shiner.
In response to Col. Upson witness said
be was on tbe fence before but tbat
meeting bad made him a prohibitionist.
Ed. Guilbeau deputy city clerk pro-
duced tbe city council minutes showing
that Geo. B. Johnson and others bad
petitioned tbe city council to meet on
Alamo plaza and the petition bas been
refused. Schreiner’s resolution prohibit-
ing any one from using tbe plaza with-
out the mayor’s permission was also
proved.
Chas. Tinsley a citizen of Houston
gave evidence tbat he saw Callaghan
laughing at the meeting but denied
that be saw him applauding or that be
had told Brooker so*.
Tbe Rev. A. F. Jackson gave evidence
but tbere was nothing crlmnatory In it.
Here Mr. Bergstrom objected to fur-
ther testimony as to tbe general tenor of
the meeting enough evidence already
being adduced upon that point and the
commissioner concurred saying tbat
much needless testimony bad been in-
troduced.
Tbe district attorney asked for an ad-
journment to produce other important
witnesses. The defense objected but
the commission adjourned until 10
o'clock this morning.
Tbe first witness to take tbe stand
this morning was Chas. H. Johnson a
colored man. He testified to being
present at tbe prohibition meeting on
the government site and saw all the
defendants tbere but saw no attempt
made by any of them to preserve order
and saw none of them make or cause to
be made any arrests. He saw tbe mayor
talking to several people in tbe crowd
but couldn’t bear what was said owing
to the noise.
Dr G. B. Johnston a prominent pro-
hibition leader next testified and hie
testimony and the arguments and ob-
jections ot tbe opposing counsel occu-
pied tbe remainder of tbe morning. He
said the chairman of tbe colored prohi-
bition committee came to him and got
blm to write out a petition to tbe mayor
and city council to allow them to use one
of the plazas for the purpose of allow-
ing Bishop Turner to address the col-
ored people. He wrote tbe petition and
gave it to him and supposed be handed
it to the mayor for on tbe next day af-
ter waiting at tbe mayor’s office for the
mayor for over an bour be saw him and
asked him if be bad received the
petition and tbe Mayor answered tbat
"a nigger had given him the paper.”
He asked the Mayor If tbe plazas could
be used by them and he said no refusing
flatly. Then Dr. Johnston told him be
bad applied to tbe parties in charge of
tbe Federal court bouse site and would
have to bold the meeting tbere. Tbe
Doctor said the Mayor told him be
would like to see them try to hold tbe
meeting there or words to that effect.
He was present at the council meeting
when tbe Mayor read tbe petition to tbe
council which be had laid on bis desk.
After taking It be laughed and said to
the council: “ 1 have a paper to read to
you” and read tbe petition. As soon as
finished Aiderman Conner jumped up
and moved to reject the petition and
Aiderman Degener seconded it saying
"we will reject this; they are a meddle-
some set and will breed trouble.” The
vote was put and Conner’s motion was
unanimously oarrieJ.
At tbls point Upson for tbe defense
moved to reject all this testimony on
the grounds of Irrelevancy saying: “This
was dragged In here simply for a little
prohibition thunder.”
Prosecuting Attorney Kleberg here
arose and said: “If tbe gentleman al-
ludes to me in this remark ” Here
Col. Upson hastily declared be did not
allude to him by this remark and the
commissioner told Col. Upson to refrain
from such remarks they not hav-
ing any bearing on the sub-
ject. Then followed a lengthy
argument on tbe motion in which all
tbe counsel on both sides took part. At
tbls bour the Light closed and the argu-
ment on the motion was still In progress.
Tbe penalty for conspiracy as de-
fined by tbe statutes is a fine of not
less than $lOOO nor more than $lOOOO
for each oflense and imprisonment for
not more than two years.
Sudden Departure.
News has reached tbe city telling of
the sudden departure of Col. John A.
Baker formerly of San Antonio and re-
cently a prominent citizen and lawyer
of Uvalde te parts unknown. Col.
Baker himself writes be will not return

dent of the Leakey Kaolin Mining
Chemical and Manufacturing company

pany say be has recently sold $122000
