Q Have you a brother- in -law?

A I have.

Q Did he own that sotre you were talking about the other day?

Objected to, s immaterial. The courts sustained the objection to which ruling of the court counsel for defendants then and there excepted.

Mr. Foster: This witness said that he owned the store.

I propose now for the purpose of showing that he did not, to first give him permission to take that statement back, and the court says that we can't do that.

Mr GRINELL: It cuts no figure in this case.

A.

THE COURT: Do you mean on that day of the Haymarket?

Mr Grinell: We will find out where he moved, it is in reference to his moving. I want to know why he moved.

Mr FOSTER: I don't suppose that makes any difference.

Mr Grinell: People have been at this man's house, half a dozen men, intimidating him unitl his wife begged of him to move from that locality

Mr. Salomon: That is absolutely false in every respect.

THE COURT: We can't inquire into that unless we can show that some one of these defendants have done something towards the party or some one that they sent.

Mr. BLACK: If your honor please, the statement made by Mr, Grinell in the presence of this jury and this court was so utterly

outrageous, and to his knowledge as a lawyer so utterly improper, so--

THE COURT: (interupting) I don't permit any questioning upon that subject. I strike it out.

Mr. Black: That is not enough.

THE COURT: You can talk to the jury when it comes your time.

Mr. Black: I propose to say that a statement of that kind coming from counsel when he knows it is improper is an outrage--

THE COURT: (interrupting) Sit down Mr. Black. (To the witness) Stand aside.
