, and, more than that, it is in evidence that Kunze
was perfectly at home in the rooms at 117 Clark street, and was
seen by a very intelligent witness sitting in front of the window
washing his feet. Now, what was he doing at 117 South Clark street,
if he was not engaged in that conspiracy? The men who engaged that
flat at 117 Clark street, those conspirators, were not going to
trust their lives to men they did not know; and the truth is that
he was the tool of Coughlin. More than that, it is in evidence that
he said he expected to be arrested on the Cronin business. Why?
Why? I repeat."

"Because I was told so," suddenly cried Kunze, springing to his

of the detective and trusted by Coughlin? Will you, gentlemen of
the jury, tell me why O'Sullivan, who lived at the rear of the
Carlson cottage, and whose stable almost abutted on the cottage,
was selling this poor painter a horse?"

WHOM THE EVIDENCE POINTS TO.

"I have gone over the salient features of the evidence, and I say
unhesitatingly that there is evidence which points directly to
Coughlin; it points directly to Patrick O'Sullivan, and it points
directly to Burke, unerringly to those three as having a direct
connection with t
