SHORT bKSSIOX OF UlRXS CAH
Defendant I'nder Croan-Ktsinlnalloa
Harlow the Time.
As Judge Thorncll did not reach the city
until nearly noon, no morning- session of
tho trial of the Doyle-Burns suit was held
yesterday. When court convened In the
afternoon the cross-examination of Burns
was resumed by Mr. Hughes. The cross
examination yesterday was directed mainly
by Mr. Haghes to an effort to show that
Burns took charge of practically all of
the transactions In connection with the
sale of the various mines to the Portland
company, and, although Harnan, Doyle and
Peck were present at the meetings, none
of them took an active part In the negotia
tions and discussions, or asserted any In
terest, they allowing Burns to take full
control and consummate the entire deal.
In connection with this line of cross
examination the witness was questioned at
length regarding the sale of the Black
Diamond, Tidal Wave and Devil's Own
claims to the Portland company with a
view to ascertaining what proporvl.n of the
shares of stock received by him for the
two claims were allotted respectively to the
Devil's Own and the Tidal Wavb Burns
had testified that out of the stock received
by him for these two claims he had given
Peck and Doyle each $2S,0U0, Mr. Hughes,
however, attempted to show through the
witness that It was Stratton who gave
Teck and Doyle each $J8,000 out of what
he received for the Black Diamond. This
the witness positively denied.
It Is expected that the cross-examination
of Burns will be completed today. The
defense has one or more witnesses to put
on the stand, as well as to read the tes
timony glveft at the former trial by Burns'
slaters and then there will be aome short
rebuttal by the plaintiff. It la thought that
all of the evidence will be In by Thurs
day. The farmer members of the . Jury are
worrying over being unable to get home
and attend to their work, so yesterday
counsel for Doyle proposed that aa soon as
the evldenoe Is all In the Jury be excused
for a few days and In the meantime both
eidts ,ulwru4iic on all law wlius. anaclal
Interrogatories, Instructions to the Jury,
etc, 'and that arguments be commenced
next Monday morning.
Judge Thornell expressed himself as
agree-able to this arrangement, provided
both sides were willing. Counsel for Burns
are agreeable provided Mr. Thomas can
secure the postponement of a case In New
York Involving several million. In Which
he la one of the counsel, and th trial of
which has been set for April 11. If Mr.
Thomas can arrange thla the Jury will be
given a few days' recess.
TALK OF CnnrROIIE AT MIVIW4
Commercial ( Jah Tries Its Hand at
etllnc I lllaatlon.
The efforts of the executive committee
of the Com.nerclal club to procure an ami
cable settlement of the controversy between
the motor company and certain owners of
property at Manawa over the proposed va
cation of pevernl streets and alleys which
cut through the company' resort at the
lake, may be productive of results.
Yesterday the members of the committee
and a number of the members of the club,
together with representatives of the motor
company and the attorneys for the Inter
ested property owners, visited the srene
and looked over the ground. As a result
of the Investigation the committee came
to the conclusion that neither side would
be Injured much by making some con
