timonv bv Baytag that he was the father-ln-law of
Ilarrv Knssell. one of the prl-on-rs, and often VlB
ited hlm ln LudlOW Street Jail. Oeneral Tracy ob
toeted to Mr. Woeka'a queatlon if he had ever taken
anythtag la the jail to them, and Mr. Weeks with
drew it.
?Did you ever take any revolvers in the jail wltb
you?" then ask.d Mr. Weeks. Oeneral Traey was
on his feat Iti a BOCond and protest.-d. MSing that
It was not WlthlB the knowledge of the d.f-nd int

"Tea; i gave him $20."
"Dld you ever aee any other money there nn tiie

"Ves; I aaw 88,000. .Alleti had part .ind Kllloran

"Di.l you evrr fiive them any mom-y'.'"
"i i-iivi- Allen an anvelope, 1 sa\. il opened by
him and It oontain-d M0&"
"TOU may examlne," said Mr. Wicks, witfi a
smile of triumph.
Oeneral Traey began by laking \osburg wiu-re
he got the anvelope, and th" wltneaa repBed that
it had b.en left at his home at 8 o'clock at nlght.
II. d.l not know by whom.
Oeneral Tracy then ask.-d Voaburg how he came
to teatlfy ln the trlal. and was told he had been
Bubpoenaed during his own trtal. The facl was
then l.r.nmht out h,- bad been rrled for obiain
Ibj 8500 from a man named Clmtel in ih" green
goods bualneaa. At ihe Oeneral'a reaueet Voaburg
explalned th.- method of the swlndle. He said he
soid th-- man whal he thought waa counterfelt
m??-. y nmountlng 1 1 88,008. "We ahowed him good
money," explalned th<- witness. "anl placed it ln ii
box, and then rung the box on hlm."
"Rung the box'.'"
"Ves. rung lt."
Bvery on.- laughed nt (jenerai Tracy'a "counter?
felt" ignor.ince, and Colonei Pellowa baatened to
expbUn what tbe wltneaa meant by "ringtag" or
changtag the box. Oeneral Tracy then continued t .
foUow up tiie detalla -if the greengoode transaction.
but Colonei Pellowa objected, aaylng that if it was
with thc idea that the wltneaa was a orlmlt.al, the
people would concede that. and also that he had
been convicted of many criroea
"WiU you coneedc ttiat the man is ut.worthy of
beUet ala0?" queried Oeneral Tracy.
A CRBDIBLB WITXKSS. BAT8 PELLOWS.
"Xo," replled the Colonei, "the facl that he ls now
convlcted and has been before many tlmea does not
prevent hlm from teUlng the truth."
"We thlnlt.lt does." was the Qenerafa rejily.
Conttauing he aaked aboul th..- greengooda trans?
action, when Mr. Weeks objected on the ground
that lt had BOtbing to do with thc present case, and
.iu li- AlUaofl auatalned hlm.
Oeneral Tracy then took up Vosburg's record anl
_? by aaking how many limea be had aerved
terms 1,1 prifl in.
"Beven tlni's." was Ihe answer.
"Where and when was the flrst Imprisonment?"
Voaburg explalned the flrst was in Kentticky In
MSB, when he got fiva years for burglary. The next
was In Buffaio In 1888 for tba "bombobell" game. At
th-' Oeneral'a repjest he cxplained that the game
waa to get a "sucker" to bet thal a blue rlbbofl had
beeti tak.n from an Iron liall, after he had aeon a
confederate take it out. Then, the wltneaa said. he
opened anotber cavlty in the sheii and took oal a
s--.nl r:i.!-?n. <Mi f is game In Buffaio he got J10M
from a man and was s.-ntrnced to six montha In the
penitentlary.
"Where nexl'.'" continued Generai Tracy.
"In Bpringfleld, for 88SJM v.orth ot dianionls. l
didn't get the dbtmonda, tbough."
"Who io-?i ;h'- di.imonds?"
lf.;.- Colonei Pellowa objected, eontendlng ihat the
.!. fen ?? ha l no righr t > ?o in:> the detalla of each
crime. Oeneral Tracy thought he ha l, aa i the Judge
sai 1 ihat Voaburg migtn aaawer. "Old BU1" de
dared that he d.-i noi know?that he itole them
from a in. n ln a car. The diamon Is were iu a
aatchel and on th.- Beal beelde the man.
"I jual picked lt up and walked out of the car.
They got me for four yeara," remarked Voaburg.
"The n.xt time was In this clty. I got flfteen
montha in 1878 for ateal'.r.g seven or elght OOUBdfl of
gol 1 ,-hains from a manuf.icturer d-o.vn iu Broad

"W'.il, where next?"
"ln ivso i got three yeara for attempted robberj at
Carmel, this Btate."
"Whi re ii. \t ?"
"In RocSeeter I got two and a hnIP yeara for at
tempting to Bteal IZ'Km from a man?it was larceny
from the i? raon "
"Well, tben, ihe next place waa where?"
"ln 18S*. Ib Washlngton, D. ("., I was sentonced to

"Dld you aerve your time?"
"Xo, only three montha. i was par-loned by Oen?
eral Harrison."
THK PRJJB8EXT CHAROI AOAIXST HIM.
Tha: c-nded the prison record of the arttneaa, wltb
the exceptlon of the charge for whlch he Is now
h.-id.
"When dld you flrst lenrn of the trlal?" Oeneral
Tracy wanted to know next.
"i eaa it ta the paper."
"Dld you know It before >ou enterel a plea of
guilty?" deman<!ed the Oeneral.
"Xo"
"Had your pleadlng guilty anything to do wltb
this case?"
"Xo."
"Had you and your lawyer ever cOBVeraed in re
gard :o the trlal?"
To thla Colonei Fellows objected, anl the Judge
said that whal the wltneaa had said to his lawyer
was a privlleged eommunioatlon.
"You plaa led guilty of larceny ln the Brat degrcc
as a llrst orTein-e. dld >on not." aaked the counae]
for Ihe defence.
Voaburg said he could not aay. A wrangle be
tween th.- lawyera followed, and the Indlctment was
aenl for. Ii ahowed tha; Voaburg had plea led guilty
to larceny in the Brat degree, as a flrai offenea
"Dld you k."o\v th- dlfference between a plea i
