As to the Death of John Sheedy---

She Befriended at Least.
It was an eventful and yet uneventful
day in the Sheedy murder trial yeterday.
Mant witnesses testified, some willingly and some unwillingly, and yet the defense seemed perfectly satisfied with the testimony.
Though Mrs. Sheedy was considerably agitated during part of the examinations in the morning she and the defense were perfectly screne through-out.
TESTERDAY AFTERNOON.
The first witness called was Officer Otte, who related, In answer to the questions how he had heard the shooting and went to the house. There were several at the house when he arrived, among them Dr. Everett ; could not remember the demeanor of Mrs. Sheedy. Found blood on the south porch, two or three feet from the door failed to find any trace of blood leading through the yard.
Witness testified that twenty minutes had elapsed before he and Kinney found the cane; Tindall and Kinney saw the cane at the same time, Kinney picking it up.
Jacob Oppenherimer was the next :
Witness knew John Sheedy in life and called at his place of residence after the funeral of Sheedy in an official capacity.
There were present Dennis Sheedy. A. H. Walstrom, Mrs. Sheedy and others.
There was a piono in the room and as Mrs. Sheedy passed it touched the keys pleasantly ; saw nothing unsual in her appearace. Crose-examined : Mrs. Sheedy, Harry Walstrom. Dennis Sheedy and others were in the parlor, when Mrs. Sheedy showed the power of attorney to Walstrom, remarking "Its all right, Hary. " Witness went there to get signtures to power of attorney. This was the next day after the funeral.
Charles Carpenter; Has known Mrs. Sheedy several years, Remembers the assault on the 11th of January. He was at the house after the assault and was the secound person there. First saw Sheedy standing on the porch firing a revolver. When in the house Sheedy remarked that he did not know what he had ever done that anyone should treat him thus. Witness carried a message for Mrs. Sheedy shortly after this, going to a room in the Heater block to tell A. H. Walstrom that Sheedy was badly hurt. He saw Mr. Walstrom and delivered the message. He knew Walstrom, having met him at his house while calling with Mrs. Sheedy. This was a short time before the assault.
He carried message for Mrs. Sheedy once before, stopping to tell Johnnie Klausner that Mrs. Sheedy wanted him. Witness had not seen Walstrom had not seen Walstrom after the first assault upon Sheedy until the night of the last assault.
Gus Sanders knew John Sheedy since 1879 : knew Mrs. Sheedy about 1881 : didn't know when Sheedy first met her and did not know her name when witness first saw her ; didn't know at that time that she had been married before, but heard so since; did not know when she was married to John Sheedy ; they lived together as man and wife in either 1881 or 1882 in a room in the Quick block ; was around there every day.
This branch of the testimony was most vigorously opposed by the combined defense, but the court thought it proper to show the history of their married life The defense contended that they had no right to attact her character, especially at so remote a period, to even find a motive for the commission of such a crime An effort war made by the prosecution to bring out more of the history of the Sheedys in the years '85-6, but after presure had been brought to bear upon the court by the defense, Sanders' entire testimony was stricken from the record.
MALONE COULDN'T BLUFF HIM.
Johnny Klausner had lived in the family about two years up to four years ago ; was going to school and did chores for board and clothes ; though he left there in 1887 or 1888 ; had known Mr. and Mrs. Sheedy about eight years : had been around there a great deal and ran errands since he quit living there ; did so down to Sheedy's death : Mrs. Sheedy had told him that she expected a friend from Buffalo ; that was two weeks before witness met Walstrom she said his name was Walstrom ; about a week later she told witness that she wanted him to room with Walstrom when he came about two days later Walstrom came to the Windsor, where witness worked, and asked for witness ; identified himself as the young man Mrs. Sheedy had spoken to witness about ; witness and Walstrom went to the Heater block ; witness picked out a room ; it didn't suit Walstrom and he picked out a larger and ligher room ; they were to pay $12 a mounth. Walstrom $3 and witness $4 ; witness told about carrying notes between Mrs. Sheedy and Walstrom during the two or three months he worked at the B. & M. shops; sometimes they would be two days apart and sometimes a week; the notes were always sealed, but never addressed; Mrs. Sheedy told him to come after notes after school; had also carried lunches from Mrs. Sheedy to Walstrom, sandwiches, cold chicken, etc; sometimes a bottle of porter; these lunches would last a week or two; she told them it was for them to eat in their room; had never sent any lunchs to witness room ere Walstrom came to room with him. Also carried a long package from Walstrom to Mrs. Sheedy the Friday after the funeral; didn't know what was
in it; gave it to Mrs. Sheedy ; sometimes went in by the front gate. Mrs. Sheedy had sent word to witness that wanted him to come to the funeral, and
"she wouldn't think nothing of him any more if he didn't." On Monday afternoon she had told witness to tell Walstrom is relation to Sheedy that she was afraid he was going to die; last summer some time witness found Mrs. Sheedy crying, and she had told him that she couldn't get along with Sheedy and wanted to get a divorce. Mrs. Sheedy had told witness that she "thought a good deal" of Walstrom and wanted Klausner to room with him.
Witness said that Mrs. Sheedy would talk to him about Walstrom, would ask how he was getting along and told that if Walstrom ever got sick or any- thing not to wait but come right to her and tell her.
The witness testified that neither Mr. Strode, Mrs. Sheedy nor anyone in their behalf had ever asked him to say one would in favor of Mrs. Sheedy that was not true, but that Mr. Malone and a Pinkerton man, while he was impriseoned, had tried to make him admit thing that were not true and once he was in the jail two weeks at Malone's instance and threatened by him that unless he admitted certain things he would be sent to prison. Witness said that he never told Malone about the notes and lunch baskets until he asked him about it ; didn't refuse to tell him anything ; didn't want to be a witness unless he had to.
Carried a ring case once from Mrs. Sheedy to Walstrom. None of the attorneys for the state had ever asked him to tell an untruth but detectives had asked him questions and tried to get him to say yet, when it would have been untrue.
Wm. Harding, a mail carrier now, but formerly a barber, testified; He knew McFarland and for a long time employed him. John Sheedy was a patron of his shop and McFarland shaved him. McFarland also took care of Mrs. Sheedy's hair;
Mr. Sheedy would come after him. He would to the house and stay one hour, presumably dressing Mrs. Sheedy's hair. Cross-examined by Strode, witness could not say how many times McFarland dressed Mrs. Sheed's hair since last September; several however. He was told to go by John Sheedy ; three or four times at least. Mr. Sheedy' did not pay witness direct for this service; he paid McFaland, who in turn paid witness. He was gone about one hour at each visit---could not say that it was longer than necessary. Excused.
There being no more of the state's witnesses present adjourment was taken until this morning at 9 o'clock.
THIS MORNING.
There was a spattering of gray beards in the audience when
[image]
COL. HOAGELAND,
the deep-voiced deputy. sang out his sonorous tones calling the court to order.
The jury having answered to their names, showing that no one had escaped from the third floor of the court house during the night. Judge Field told the prosecution to call their next witness.
Albert Katzenstein was the first witness called, followed by James Gatchell,
both clerks at Herpolsheimer's. They gave testimony as to the purchase of nightshirts and hosiery by Mrs. Sheedy, but couldn't say who they were for.
James Smith, a clerk at Schwab's, also told of the purchase of neckties by Mrs. Sheedy in December, all of which were identified, as best witnesses could, as the articles sold by them.
The next on the stand was Dr. Beachley : He was acquainted with the late John Sheedy, but not his wife, Was present at the post morterm examination and examined the wound of the skull.
Witness described the wound and thought it could have been produced by a blow from a [dr?word] such as shown and offered in evidence. The brain seemed to be in a normal condition ; say no coagulated clots of blood. about the heart was hardly normal. it appeared to be affected with fatty degeneration; the liver was enlarged. The symptons of morphine poisoning would be shown by heavy breathing, inactivity of the organs and effect upon the eyes. Witness was acquainted with the use of sulohinal, a remedy for producing sleep, and thought 15 to 30 grains a dose for a dose for an tult through sixty could be given.
The witness was asked , in view of all the conditions of physical structure and in which John Sheedy was known to have laid, the matters brought out at the autopsy. etc., what was his opinion as to the cause of his death.
This question was raised a howl of objection that were set forth eloquently by the attorneys in the defense, Messrs. Philpot. Stearns and Wear. character-izing the question as a hypothetical one.
Mr. Lambertson, who put the question, defended his grounds by saying that in his opinion the question need not be bound by evidence already given.
Judge Field recited a rule of law contradictory to this. However the objection was overruled and the witness answered :
" In my opinion the man died from morphine poisoning."
The defense then took the witness;
No, there was no microscope used at the autopsy. Found no cloths of blood in the brain; to the naked eye it was normal. Excitement might cause the death of a person with faty degeneration of the heart.
Re-direct examination by Lambertson : From a concussion of the brain the effect is that of morphine, save that there is a perecptible difference in breathing; when the patient breathes
from fifteen to twenty times per minute, nearer the natural, concussion would cause it ; slower than that, say to five and six times a minutes morphine would produce it : concussion would also cause slight difference in appearance of the eyes. Conditions vary in each particular case. Compression of the brain may be produced by crushed skull, or other causes, anything that would produe presure. The symptoms are similar to morphine poisoning.
The latter produced contraction of the pupil of the eye ; suspension of the functions; apparent paralysis ; retension of nrine. faliure to swallow.
Respiration is decreased. pulse increased, then decreased with varuing temperature ; pulse might reach one hundred and forty. In campression partial paralysis is generally produced and consciousness retained, also physical functions, but this depends on what part the brain the compression rests.
Breathing in nearer natural. If afffecting the spine the bladder would be effect and power of control lost ; otherwise contronl of the person might be partically retained. Witness belived a dose of morphine could be given and still not be found in any chemical analysis, because it would be carried off the stomach. A patient suffering severe pain-from any cause will bear a larger dose of morphine than when without pain. A toxic dose of morphine might lie on the stomach for three hours with out noticeable effect---according to the action of the organ in assimilating it.

While the president was here the other day he did one thing that was not down on the program. His carriage was just turning the corner at Fifteenth and O. when with a spring quick as lightning he leaped from his carriage.
Everyone wondered what was the matter, but finally agreed that he was frightened at the mayor's loud snoring.
he having fallen asleep soon as the carriage left the depot and for the last block or two had put heroic efforts on showing the president admiring friends how the mayor of a western town can snore when the proper occasion arrives, but the president had an object in view. He had caught sight of some of that " Sanitary Soap" in Shader's window and to have a can of it was an object worth striving for. It beats all ---250 a can.

Base Ball.
The Senators are still putting up a craking good game of the national sport and came out yesterday winners after a closely contested game by a score of four to three. As in all our games away from home heavy batting won and in spite of six errors, demonstrating the fact that scientific play without heavy batting will not win.
Rogers and Stafford were the battery and made two and three base hits respectively. The St. Pauls give Stafford the credit of being the most puzzling and swiftest pitcher of the leagure.
O' Day put up a fine game in the box giving only three men their bases, and being well supported. Lincoln no stands third and has won eight out of ten games played away from home.
