HELD HER OWN.

Mrs. Foy Bravely Withstands a, Merciless Oroaa-Examlnatlon.

SHE PROVES A REMARKABLE WITNESS

Her Story Is Materially Unchanged Under the Fire of Her Pitiless Questioner Soma Dramatlo Scenes

In Court.

STUCK TO HEIt STOBV.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.—The hearing of the Coughlin case was resumed Tuesday, Mrs. Foy taking the witness stand. She was subjected to a searching crossexamination at the hands of Judge Wing, counsel tor Ooughlln. He questioned her minutely as to the various times Coughlin is said to have visited her house and converse with her husband, but she answered promptly and apparently without evasion.

Congratulated Each Other.

Nothing new was brought out by these questions. At the visit on May 11 she saia that Coughlin and Foy talked about the body of Dr. Cronin. Coughlin said the body had not been found, but that the police were searching for it. Foy said this made things look more hopeful—it looked as if they would never find the body, and Coughlin said he guessed they would not. She repeated her testimony as to the conversation she held with Coughlin, jln which the latter told her not to be uneasy regarding Andy that nothing could be proved against him, and that if he was arrested Alexander Sullivan would see that she was well taken care of.

Nothing Has Been Promised Her. In reply to a question by Judge Wing, Mrs. Foy declared that no promises had been made to her by the prosecution. She admitted that she did not now lovo her husband. lie had ceased to live with her since slio had decided to go on the witness stand. Mrs. T. T. Conklin had never promised her anything. She had, however, loaned her some money, and had given her an old carpet and some clothos for her children She did not like Dan Couglln in fact had great reason to dislike him.

Appealed to the Court,

Judge Wing then said: "Didn't you accuse your husband of being the man who threw the bomb at the Haymarket riot?"

Witli face as white as death the witness raised her right haud and exclaimed: "Never in all my life." "Didn't you go to Judge Grinnell when the anarchist trial was on and tell him you would swear your husband threw the bomb?" "Before God I never did." "Haven't the neighbors for half a block around your house, heard you screaming that your husband threw the bomb?" "I never did," said the witness, now almost hysterical.

Mr. Hottum objected vigorously to the line of the cross-examination. Mrs. Foy almost broke down under the struin. "This is awful, judge," she said, addressing the court. "This is too terrible." The- women in the courtroom were very much wrought up by the dramatic scene.

Then the strain of the situation was further complicated by Judge Wing handing Mrs. Foy two letters which lie asked her to identify as in her handwriting. She said the writing looked like hers and finally admitted that she had written and mailed the letters, aud said that she had written them to Mr. Forrest. Witness examined the letters carefully and said that nothing had been changed in them.

Jolin Devoy Causes a Sensation. Judge Wing asked Mrs. Foy if she had not tried to secure money from himself. She said he knew she had never asked him for money. Instantly Mr. Hottum objected and from the press table came in a deep voice: "Let her give the answer." The remark was made by John Devoy. a well known Irish-American, member of the Cronin defense committee, and who is one of the reporters writing up the trial for a local newspaper. The court told Mr. Devoy that he must not make such a remark. Mr. Devoy ajologiz»d, and said that the remark was only intended for Attorney Bottum's ears, but that he had spoken too loud.

Denied Many Insinuations.

Mrs. Foy (. ave emphatic denials to Insinuations through questions by her cross-examiner that she knew only what her husband had told her because the others would not trust her that she had stated to others that If she could only connect Alexander Sullivan with the case she could get all the money she wanted from Mrs. Conklin and the Cronin coinmitteei that she had even told her husband that he was the coward that threw the bomb at the Haymarket riot, and that he ought to be on trial with Spies and the rest of them, and that she would go to Judge Gfinnell and fix him.

Wing Reads the Letter.

Judge Wing then readithe'letter written by Mrs. Foy to Attorney Forrest shortly before the latter's departure to Ottawa in the interest of Coughlin, O'Sulllvan and Burke. The letter detailed the knowledgegof the writer of all the circumstances attending the great crime, saying that her husband was one of the principal conspirators, and that he was a monster and a drunkard ever since its commission. If the attorney desired to see her he could address her in a personal in a newspaper, to "Justice."

A postal card telling of her knowledge of the crime and the sufferings of one who was innocent was also sent to Attorney Forrest with the announcement that she intended to visit the state's attorney and tell all that this was no idle threat, and that she had suffered enough.

Through with Her Ordeal. Tlio cross-examination closed and on the redirect the witness watt asked to state about the asking of money by her

from Attorney Forrest. The witness said that she told the attorney that she would much rather have him give her husband good advice and make him abettor man, that she would much rather have money honestly made by her husband than any other. "I wanted Andrew Foy to be ti better man," she said. She continued: "I said 1 had no money, and you (addressing Judgo Wing,) Bald you hadn't much money yourselvos: that you didn't get muoh out of the oas», and I told you I wanted 11 distinctly understood that I didn't come after money. Now, didn't I say that?"

To this Judge Wing made no reply. Both sides announced that they were through with Mrs. Foy, who left the stand, seemingly as cool ns when she ascended it in tho morning, and court then adjourned to 2 o'clock.

The afternoon session was taken up by examining Mrs. Laura Herman and James Connelly on the contract which O'Sullivan made with Dr. Cronin Mr. and Mrs. John Llndgren, who visited the Carlson cottage May 19, 18S9, and saw tho broken shutter and footprints in the hall, and Capt. Schuettler, who Identified the trunk, lock and key. Nothing new was developed during the afternoon.

OMAHA, Nel»., Dec. 27.—After about two weeks of negotiations and conferences the contract has been made between Count Lubienskl, representing a Polish syndicate, and the committee of the Commercial club by which a beet sugar factory will be erected in this city next year.

Count Lubienskl agrees to build the factory and bring 200 families of Polish emigrants and will conduct a model farm of 300 acres to teach beet culture. The Commercial club agrees to take $100,000 stock in the factory, whioh will cost about $1,500,000,and will grow 4,000 acres of sugar beets within a radius of 20 miles of Omaha. The factories at Grand Island and Norfolk have become very successful after only three years' experience aud have produced 6,000,000 pounds of sugar this year. Count Lubienskl will establish a smaller factory In tho Elk'norn valley also. He represents a Polish emigrant society of large capital who wish to got homes and occupations for farmers in this state.

THE DEATH PENALTY.

It Is Asked of the Jury for tlie Murder of Carter Harrison. CHICAGO, Dec. 27.—Tlje death penalty has been asked for in the Prendergast trial. When Assistant State's Attorney James Todd began his plea Tuesday morning he reminded the jurors at the outset that they had sworn to inflict that penalty if the evidence warranted it* His argument throughout was that the prisoner was sane and knew the difference between right and wrong when the murder was committed, and that death alone could expiate the crime. After Mr. Todd had closed in the afternoon Attorney Kobert Essex, for the defense, in a strong plea argued that Prendergast was insane. Mr. Essex spoke for nearly two hours. He will finish his argument this morning.

A REMARKABLE INJUNCTION ISSUED.

My an Order from Judge Jenkins tlui Men Are Itestralned from "Combining to yult, with or Without

Notice."

ILLEGAL TO STlilKE.

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 27.—A conflict is on between the receivers of the Northern Pacific railroad and its employes, Including all the engineers, conductors, firemen, trainmen and switchmen and so on. The new schedule of wages adopted by the receivers, whioh implies acutof Ti to 10 per cent. In the employes' pay, was rejected by the employes' representatives at a conference held in St. Paul with Ooneral Manager Kendrlck Mouday, and the prospects are that on January 1, when the new seedulo is to go into effect, 3,500 men employed all along the road will quit work.

Stole March.

The outcome of the controversy was foreseen by the receivers, for as early as December 19 they applied for and obtained from Judge Jenkins, of the United States court of this city, an order authorizing and directing them to put into operation the new schedule of wages and restraining the employes and their union* from "combining and conspiring to quit, with or without notice, the service of tho road, with the object of crippling or embarrassing its operation, and generally frow Interfering with the officers and agents of tho receivers or their employes in any manner by actual violence, intimidation. threats or otherwise."

The injunction was held back until Tuesday, tho receivers having expected to arrive at an amicable agreement When they found such an agreement Impossible they telegraphed to their agents and attorneys all along the line to have the injunction served by tho United States marshals on the proper men and to make tho injunction generally known.

An Extraordinary Document. The order of the court restraining the Northern Pacific employes from "combining and conspiring to quit the service of the road" is an extraordinary document. It is the first order of its kind, it is said, ever issued in the United States. A somewhat similar injunction was Issued by a United States court in Michigan during the strike of the Toledo & Ann Arbor employes, but that injunction was issued after the strike was in progress. The grounds for the issuance of the present injunction are set forth in a long petition of the receivers, which was filed December 18.

Mtitle a New Schedule.

It appears from the petition that two days after their appointment (Aug. 17) the receivers, finding the road ina deplorable condition, ordered a reduction of salaries varying from 10 to 20 per cent, of all officials and employes whose pay per annum exceeded $1,200. That reduction went into effect at once and was cheerfully accepted. About a week afterward (August 25) the receivers ordered a reduction of 5 per cent, on all wages running from $50 to $75 per month, and of 10 per cent on wages averaging from $75 to $100 per month. This order of the receivers did not go into effect at once. They concluded to investigate and revise the entire system of wages and tho different schedules of pay, the task being imposed on the general manager.

At a meeting of the receivers on October 28 resolutions were adopted abrogating the old schedules of pay, directing the general manager to prepare a new schedule for the engineers, trainmen and telegraphers and ordering a reduction of the wages of the other men as provided for August 25. The petition says that in the old schedules the employes were paid for services not performed.

A Far-Reachlng Injunction. In enumerating those who are enjoined from striking or ordering strikes the petition of tne receivers mentions the names of thirty-two men who have been the conference committee with the receivers, and asks that they be enjoined from ordering a strike, which the court grants. The petitioners say that the employes cannot carry on a strike without the pecuniary assistance of the different national organizations to which they belong. They therefore pray that these organizations, through their chief officers. such as P. M. Arthur, E. C. Clark, E. P. Sargent, D. G. Ramsey, 8. E.' Wilkinson and others, he enjoined from ordering aud sanctioning the strike. The court grants this and these men are included in the injunction.

Restraining Order Issued at St. Paul. ST. PAUL, Minn., Dec. 27.—Late Tuesday afternoon, in the United States circuit court, Judge Caldwell issued an order to all conductors, trainmen, firemen, engineers and other employes of the Northern Pacific railway, restraining them from interference with the rnnning of trains, the destroying of railway property or delaying the transmissian of the mails. They are directed not to interfere by violence or intimidation, but to leave Receivers Rouse, Oakes and Payne In untrarameled possession of the property. Tho order is directed to the marshal of Minnesota, who at once began serving the order upon such employes of the road as It affects.

It is believed no strike will be ordered in the face of the order of Judge Caldwell. A similar order was issued in North Dakota, and others will be issued in Montana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon before the opening of the new year.

Towboat Hunk and Ono Ulan tlrowiied. NEW YOKK, Dec. 27.—The tugboat Brilliant, belonging to the Standard Oil company, was sunk by the high sea in the bay. Four of the crew swam ashore on the pilothouse of the wrecked boat The fireman, whose name is unknown, was drowned.

PALERMO, Dec. 27.—Lorcaradi Freddi, the scene Saturday of a fight between a mob and a body of troops growing out of the anti-tax agitation, Monday night witnessed a more serious affray, in which four persons were killed and many wounded. Tho fight Satur day, in which two persons were wounded, further inflamed the anger of the people, and Monday evening they determined to make another demonstration against tho odious octroi tax and the municipal councilors who insisted upon its enforcement A large crowd gathered and paraded tho etreets and finally became so riotous that body of troops was dispatched to disperse them. The troops attempted to clear the streets, whereupon they were set upon by the rioters, who attacked them with stones and other missiles. The soldiers, who were supplied with ball cartridges, were ordered to fire upon the crowd and they poured a volley Into the ranks of the rioters, the effects of which caused most of the latter to floe in dismay. Four of their number were left dead in the street, while many others fell to the ground i^ore or less seriously wounded. Great excitement prevails in the town and it may be that further trouble will take place when the funorals of tho victims are held. During tho anti-tax riot at Terrasin, near this city, the Octroi offices were set on fire and were completely destroyed.
