It as the only, evidence introduced to show that there had been a conspiracy or plot hatched to slug some of the Kopf partisans, and was aimed at the senator.

Attorney Kickham Scanlan. counsel for Farnum. attempted to show that Woods Is a creature of and that he has been a. professional witness in many. previous cases.

His questions at the close of the coroner's investigation were intended to show that Woods was arrested last summer for horse stealing by who saved him from punishment by interceding with the court. and later gave him employment. Coroner Hoffman. Deputy C. V.

Barrett, and Assistant State's Attorney Holt conferred and concluded to bar all questions as to the past history of the witness. Tells of Plot to "Do" Kopf. Woods testified to the following story: That he had gone to the club headquarters at 14CA) West Madison street on the morning of the and that he had overheard conversations pointing to a plot to do up" Kopf and others of his party. He said that he saw Farnum and Roberts in consultation, and that Roberts had said on walking away. Leave it to me," and that later he heard live men talking.

that W. J. Jackman had declared he would have nothing to do with' it." and that another man. whom be did not know, explained that the man whom Farnum shook hands with or for whom he bought a drink was the man." The statements of the witnesses went to show that Kopf had protested against the barring of his clerks and judges, and that the voters in line had refused to cast their ballots. Farnum then called upon George Jensen, a park policeman, acting as clerk.

to vote, and he had tried to put a bundle of ballots into the box. A cry went up that the box was being stuffed. and Kopf ran forward. He had Just stepped upon the platform when Roberta stabbed him with a pocket knife. State Has Many Witnesses Yet.

The state is endeavoring to show that the attack was unprovoked, and still has seventeen more witnesses to place on the stand. The defense has not yet stated who will be called to represent the Farnum side of the fight. but it is probable that the inquest will not be concluded today. HARMON IN REBATE REJOINDER.

M.Former Attorney General Judson Harmon, who was special counsel for the government in the rebate case against the Santa Fe railroad. tonight gave out the following statement in connection with the letters yesterday made public in Washington: The president and the attorney general seem to be congratulating each other because the government lost its case against the Santa Fe railroad company. If they were always so certain there was nothing in the case I do not understand why they turned it over to Mr. Judson and myself. The Interstate commerce commission found and reported that the company for years flagrantly had broken the law against rebates.

We refused to believe that the corporation had slipped out of nights and banded over the rebates while the officers in charge of its traffic were abed. We proposed to proceed against them accordingly. This course was disapproved and we thereupon resigned. The president then proceeded himself to hold a bed of justice and have a trial by letter. Ile announced what was a cress between a judgment of not guilty and aziardort.

In which the attorney general concurred. If. after, that, anybody expected anything from the further prosecution of the case that person is now disappointed. I do not know whether Mr. Judson and myself would have fared any better or not, tut I do know that it is not a good way to win a case to proclaim that one knows himself there Is nothing 4n It, and then put It in charge of an advocate who is naturally supposed to hold the same Oldest Bank Chicago Established 1857 .4 COUNTIf COURT.
