Words flew with such machine-gun rapidity ,|hat the short-hand reporters were . - -forced to exert themselves to the limit to keep up with the cross-examina- • ; tion. Maynard Cross Examinee Lumley The defendant witness was turned i>ver to Maynard for cross-examination and the fireworks started. After a few preliminary questions l£- Maynard took up the matter of Joseph Holly and his indictments. He inquired about Barnes going to Lumley : tnd asking him to nolle proase these Indictments. Lumley said this hap- rned several times. Maynard asked Barnes didn't tell him that Holly Could help him in the prosecution of the Hoys, to which the witness replied that he did not. Lumley said that after Hoily had refused to answer questions before the grand jury that Miss Weid, the Court stenographer, was brought in and Holly answered every question. Baid he told Barnes that he knew tiolly was lying and didn't deserve any consideration. Asked wny he did not prosecute Holly on the indictments, Lumley said . that Barnes came to him and said that Holly's little boy had diod and asked him not to prosecute Joe at{ that time. Asked why ne did notj prosecute him at the next term he replied that it was on accouat of aj special assistant state's attorney being appointed to handle liquor cases and that he did not prosecute any cases at that time. Maynard asked if that had anything to do with the criminal case of Joe Holly and Lum- - ley answered that it did with every case on the docket Answering the question as to why hfe did not prosecute Holly at the September term, Lumley said it was on Account of the disbarment proceedings "which had been filed and he wanted to have his name cleared befora prosecuting any more cases for the state. Maynard asked if the witness continued to draw his salary as state's attorney and he anwered "Yes." •'Then why didn't you do your duty?" snapped the prosecutor, to which Lumley calmly answered, **I have al- . ; ready told you." * , One of the questions which Maynard put to the witness was: --?==*•- Thinks Hoy LM "Did Fremont Hoy tell the truth on the witness stand when he testified here the other day?" "I think he lied," replied Lumley. * Some of the machine-gun display took place when Maynard began ^-^questioning Lumley about the $160 » check which he received from Barnes. The witness admitted getting the check and said he paid out of it some > of the expenses of the filing of the \ case and other necessarv expense incurred. Stated he offered the balance ^rJto Abbott but that he told Lumley to keep it as he had no money with which to pay him. "Did you credit Abbott with the ,$160?" asked Maynard. "I did," re- . plied Lumley* - «*-?•.* ; "Ho*r I "By thanking hip» ^ ... • I "You thanked AbbCitt for WnHnTs W money," was the remark flung back % by the Rockford lawyer. Frank B. McConnell Testifies ; Frank B. McConnell was on the fe: stand as the next defense witness, but only for a short time, his testi- \ mony being in regard to going to pC* . see Wilson about employing Barnes as counsel. Prank Spltser, Woodstock resident, who was a neighbor to Fremont Hoy, was next called to testify as to his arranging for a meeting between Hoy and Barnes Not responding to one question asked, the judge told W"» to answer and ALGONQUIN TO DUNDEE # %0AD 18 FINISHED Stretch From Crystal Lake to Algonquin Rapidly l|a|r Ing Completion ^ By the middle of next week the new cement highway between Algonquin and the end of the old pavement one half mile couth of Algonquin will be open for traffic. This short stretch of one half mile has been closed for about eight weeks and has compelled all traffic to detour from Algonquin east over the bridge and south to Dundee and Elgin over a gravel road which was very rough. The stretch of road from Alggon quin north is now geing completed, and will be open for traffic in about a month. When this is opened it will complete the link between Harvard and Woodstock on the north Elgin and Aurora on the south. A few miles east of Elgin, work is progressing rapidly on a stretch of road over the railroad tracks where a bridge or viaduct is being built. This is on route 5. Work on Route 19 between Crystal Lake and Barrington is progressing rapidly, the stretch from Barrington to the Fox river bridge being all in arid awaiting time for opening to the public. Work is now proceeding north of Cary and is expected that the entire stretch will be completed and open to the public by November 1. with a remark that the judge was a lawyer and that, he ought to know Spitser turned to Judge Reynolds that he could not answer without an explanation. "Answer the question," shouted the court, "or you will be fined." 4 Barnes Follows SpitiCr Following Spitser on the stand came Judge Barnes, taking the chair in his own behalf. He was questioned on direct by Attorney Joslyn, first going into his personal record as to his practice of law, which he stated began in 1880. The judge baid he read law in the office of Judge Gilmore and later with Judge Smith and that he maintained himself during the first year and a half of this studyby working on a farm for his board. This was followed by relating his conection with the Wilson-Abbott case and of how he happened to become employed by Mr. Wilson. Mr. Barnes replied to numerous questions put by Mr. Joslyn which covered his activities clear up to the time of the settlement of the WiHson-Abbott case. Many Barnes exhibits were introduced and identified, an^ong them being a letter he received from Wm. L. Pierce in repjy to his letter, which was published in these columns a.few days ago. Judge Barnes was stUl on the stand under direct examination when court closed Tuesday evening. Wednesday morning's session ot the Barnes-Lumley trial opened with Judge C. P. Barnes, one of the defendants, on the witness stand, being examined by his chief counsel, Attorney David R. Joslyn. A letter from Samuel Wilson to Barnes was introduced and read to the jury. In the letter Wilson ac knowledged receipt of check for $1,- 045.83 in payment of Mark's interest and Wilson said he was returning the check to apply on Barnes bill for Services. The defense asked to introduce copies of three letters from F. B. Bennett to Wilson, which was objected to by the state and the objection sustained. Another letter from Bennett to Wilson received no objection and was put in evidence, as were also the assignments of Abbott to his daughter and grandchildren. Barnes' receipt to Wilson far the papers he left when Barnes became counsel was introduced and read to the jury. The opinion which was obtained by Barnes from Dr. Walker, handwriting expert, as to Abbott's signatures, was also introduced and read. Barnes was asked what he did when he received the draft from Wilson, in connection with the notes, to which he answered that he sent Wilson one of the $1,000 notes and stated the balance would be applied on one of the other notes. The other note with endorsement was introduced. Bardic* Reeeired $8tt Witness stated that after he received the $3,000 in notes he paid Attorney Burdick $830, and the check tor same was also introduced in evidence. Barnes was then asked if In the interview he had with the Hoys, anything was said about the conversation being confidential. An objection to the question was sustained. He was then asked if in his interview with the Hoys he told them that the conversation with them would be confidential and would not be used, to which he replied that he did not. Hie receipt of Clerk Hayes to Barnes for papers Barnes deposited with the clerk waa also read to the jury. The witness was asked if, after he testified in the Hoy criminal case, he had a conversation with William L. Pierce in the side room off the court. Barnes said he did not pass one word with Pierce to his knowledge. Never Had Talk With Pierce "Did you have the conversation that Pierce detailed after the trial of the Hoys at any time or place?" "Not, a word passed between us after I testified on that caae either in the court room or outside."

Emmerson a total of nearly $62,000,000 has been collected in fees by the automobile department, according to the figures given out today. The exact amount collected from January, 1917. to August 30 this year is $61,875,000. When the financing of the first hard road system was being discussed in 1917 considerable doubt was expressed as to whether the automobile fees would be sufflcent to pay off the $60,000,000 bond issue. Leaving out the matter of interest, enough has been collected already in tiie first 8 years of the 20 year period to pay off the principal. In 1917 only $1,587,772 was collected by the automobile department. During the first 8 months of the present year $12,600,000 was oollected and the total for the year will run well over $13,000,000. _The figures given out by Secretary Bmmerson today show how fees have climbed during the 8 years. The total for the various years is as follows: I 1,6OT£T169 2,762,667.58 Mrs. Freund Wins Auto Contest Mrs. Nick Freund was winner of the Plaindealer's automobile contest, which closed Thursday evening, September 17, and was awarded the Nash Two-Door Sedan purchased of {Milling's Garage, McHenry.

While interest has thus been aroused in athletics, many of the students have turned their attention to music. Mr. Duker and Mr. Koerner were iu Chicago Saturday investigating band instruments. The orchestra gave its first concert during the convocation period on Tuesday and from present appearances the school orchestra this year will be just as good, if not better than last year. For organization purposes the various classes met Tuesday and elected their officers. The Seniors chose Berteel Spencer as president, Clyde Carr as treasurer, and Clara Barbian as secretary. Vice president has not yet been elected as there was a tie vote. The Junior officers are: Earl Conway, president, Raymond Baer, vice president, Herman Steffes, secretary, and Bernard Kinsala, treasurer. The Sophomores elected Joseph Barbian president, and Carlton Fay, president There was a tie vote for secretary and treasurer. ^ . The Freshman have not reported their officers, so it is taken for granted that they must be learning how to vote. . The Sophomores are beginning the chool parties with preparations for the annual October affair. The Juniors, meanwhile, are very much interested in the choice of class ringrs. With a number of future plans in mind the students may be certain that the school year will be anything but "dulT, and if the class spirit now shown continues, the year way fei counted a grand success. 'W4 The Woodstock Civic Music association has received word that its opening concert will be given Friday evening, Oct. 2, by the Chicago Little Symphony. A number of McHenry residents attended the Woodstock music club's programs last year and many more will probably wish to this year, so keep the date Oct. 2 in mind. I K. C.
