CASEMENT TO MAKE APPEAL FROM DOCK

Prepares Statement In Own Defense, and Attorney Will Offer No Witnesses At Trial.

LONDON, June 28.—Dramatic developments are expected at today's session of the trial of Sir Roger casement for high treason. Chief among these is a statement in his own defense which Sir Roger is prepared to make from the dock.

Francis P. Doyle, the Philadelphia attorney who is acting as solicitor for Casement, informed the Associated Press before the opening of the court that no witnesses would be called for th§ defense but that the arguments of counsel would be supplemented by a statement from the prisoner. As was indicated yesterday the main defense will rest on the argument of counsel for quashing of the indictment on

tne

ground of lack of jurisdiction. In reference to the decision of Casement's counsel not to call any witnesses Mr. Doylse said: "Inasmuch as this trial affects not only the life of Sir Roger Casement but also the aspirations of the Irish nation, it -has been deemed advisable not to call any witnesses in this jurisdiction."

He added that no witnesses were available in this country and it would have been necessary to go to Germapy for them, but th^at the government would not permit it.

Alexander Sulli an, chief counsel for Sir Roger, resumed his argument in an attempt to show the indictment was faulty when the court convened today.

After he had concluded his address the court overruled his motion to quash the indictment.

Sir Roger's Statement.

Sip Roger's statement was delivered IB a clear voice but it was plain he was laboring under a great nervous strain. The prisoner leaned heavily on the rail of the dock and his hand that held the paper shook as though palsied. He said: "Money was offered to me in Germany more than onca, and offered liberally and unconditionally but I rejected every, suggestion of the kind and left Germany a poorer man than when I entered it. Money I could always obtain from my own countrymen, and I am not ashamed here to acknowledge the debt of gratitude I owe to many an Irish friend who did freely and gladly help me when I was on the continent. "I trust I have made that statement clearly and emphatically efiough for all men, even my bitterest enemies, to

A FOOL AT 40

It is an old proverb that every man is either a fool or a physician at 40. Well I fooled along for 40 years in the drug business and practice of medicine before I perfected a blood medicine that I thought and knew I could offer the public with impunity.

I have perfected Number 40 For The Blood, and to show you that I do' not wish to fool you I will send you your dollar my mail if you return the front of the carton with the statement that you have tried one bottle without satisfactory result for any scrofulous disease, for chronic rheumatism, malaria, chronic liver troubles, constipation, or in fact any disease for which it is recommended.

comprehend—that a man who in the newspapers is 'just another Irish traitor' may be a gentleman. "The attorney-general of England thought it consistent with the traditions of which he is public representative to make a thinly veiled allusion in his opening address to the rising in Ireland^ of which he brought forward no evidence in this case and which, therefore, you and I gentlemen, as laymen, would have supposed that he would scrupulously refrain from mentioning. "Since the rising has been mentioned, however, I must say categorically that the rebellion was not made in Germany that it was not directed frcwn Germany, that it was not inspired from Germany, and that not one penny of German gold went to finance or assist it. "Gentlemen, I have touched on these personal matters because, intended as they were to reflect on my honor, they were calcujated to tarnish the cause I hold dear:"

As Sir Roger made the declaration that he never had accepted German gold his stoic voice trembled with emotion as he leaned forward as though supplicating the jurors to believe his statement.

Immediately after the prisoner had finished speaking Sergeant Sullivan rose and began an eloquent address in Summing up.

HEADS BEEWERT? WORKERS.

At the regular monthly meeting of the brewery workers' union, local No. 85, Monday night in the C. L. U. hall, Henry Poignee was elected president to succeed Fred Love, who resigned. John Lawler was elected as a delegate to the Central Labor Union to succeed John O'Connell, who resigned.

RAILROAD MEN VOTE IN FAVOR OF STRIKE

Reports Are Received At All-Day Meeting of Members of Various Trainmen's Organizations.

More than seventy-five local railroad employes, representing the engineers, firemen, conductors a-nd trainmen, were in attendance at the first meeting of a two-day session at the Pythian temple, Wednesday morning. The meeting was called by the Vandalia operating committee for the purpose of discussing and explaining to the men and meaning of the proposed eight-hour day and the time and onehalf pay for overtime work, demanded of the railroads, and on which a strike vote is being taken.

J. W. Griffin, chairman of the Order of Railroad Conductors, of Indianapolis, presided and with Hubert Pfenning, general chairman of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, and E. H. Stewart, representing the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, both of Indianapolis, presented the present state of affairs regarding the demands made by the railroad employes.

Roads Being Polled.

It was explained that all of the railroads of the United States are being polled under the auspices of the committee of managers representing all the roads in the United States, which has its headquarters in New York. The poll has been finished on some of the roads while a number of them are being polled now.

S. E. Men Favor Strike.

Mr. Stewart said the Chicago & Eastern Illinois and the Evansville & Indianapolis roads are-being polled and that the Vandalia would be polled next week. P. H. Patton, general chairman of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers of the Southeastern, reported that the poll taken on this road showed 100 per cent of the men were in favor of a strike if they were not granted the new working hours and pay.

Reports were read of several of the other roads and according to Mr. Stuart all showed a vote practically unanimously in favor of a strike. "So far we have a number of reports of others already in, and every one of these were in favor of a strike, the per cent shown by the poll taken not being lower than 95 in any case," said Mr. Stewart. "We are holding these meetings in all- railroad centers over the country for the purpose of enlightening the men on the matter of securing the new hours."

Mr. Stewart, said all of the roads are to be polled not later than July 26, immediately after which the committee Of managers will hold a conference in New York to finally present the matter to the employers.

Another meeting was held Wednesday afternoon and others are to beheld at 8 o'clock Wednesday night and all day Thursday.

OFFERS ANOTHER REGIMENT.

Bridges Believes Indiana Can Furnish Still Larger Quota. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June 28.— Franklin L. Bridges, adjutant-general, said late yesterday that he had telegraphed General A. L. Mills, chief of the division of militia affairs in Washington, that Indiana could suppiy another regiment, either of infantry or cavalry for the Mexican situation. The telegram asked for instructions from the war department as to whether another infantry regiment or a cavalry regiment is desired. No reply had been received, Gen. Bridges said.

The adjutant general said he had received reports from enough Indiana cities, where new companies of the Indiana national guard were reaay for formation to make him believe that he easily could assemble twelve new companies if the war department would authorize the formation of a new organization.

MEETING IS POSTPONED.

The meeting of the South Third' street property owners which was called for Tuesday evening to continue the plans for the improvement of the street was postponed because a number of the home owners were unable to attend. Another meeting will be called-in the near future at Ury's pharmacy. Third and Washington •farati.
