He was then on tbe verge of nervous prostration from overindulgence in liquor. Since then he bas become very nervous and has at lat become flighty.

Fourth LOTS 0' FIGGERS. The Experts in the McCourtTrul Tell How the Bank Account Stood and the) Exact Amount of tha Bhortatfe Auditor Iicklnscn, of the L. and X. Railroad Company, was the only wuues iu the McCourt trial yesterday. The session of Court opened with arguments on the objection to the witness telling what was McCourt's shortage at tbe time he was "checked out" of his ofllce.

The claim ot the defense was that tbescbcdiiles from which the witness got this knowledge were made from books in Louisville, and were not competent evidence. The Court allowed the itness to testify. He said the shortage was 6o0. That was reduced by a credit to McCourt of $30O, the amount of a due bill algned by Shotwell. and also hy the payment of by the security Company hich signed McCourt's bond.

The witness said the figures of tbe shortage were taken from books in his office. The books were duplicates of those McCourt had, and the arnrroa cocxd told how McCourt's accounts stood without having a figure from McCourt. Me said he did not make the examination of the books himself. It waa made by from 2U to -to clerks in his office. He did not see the money on tbe bond turned over.

He simply heard it had been done. He said he had an indistinct recollection that there waa some building association money given to the company, but whether by McCourt or Shotwell he would not say. It was shown that after McCourt had left the office, checks whii had been aigned by hitu in blank were uad for two weeks by McCourt's successor. Mr. Lilckinson said the books of McCourt's office were taken to Louisville for examination, and that there were 10 or 12 still there.

He testified that the average receipts ot the Cincinnati office ot the L. and were a month. He as asked if he had not made up the bills ot particulars in the case, the first showing on ot A SHORTAGE. Objection was made by the state. Judge Evans had been talking to Attorney W.

L. liickaon and did not bear tbe question. Prosecutor Sou warts, speaking of that fact, referred to Mr. Dickson as the next Corporation Counsel of tbe city. "My eoinDiimenia to the next Mayor." replied Mr.

Idckson. What are you fellows doing?" nut in Judge Ermaton. "Holding a Republican Convention?" Dickinson said be had nothing to do with bills of particulars. He admitted he had sworn to the net it ion in tbe civil suit attaching the property of McCourt and his wife, wherein the shortage was given as A0.umj. Ue said no one knew just what the shortage was.

It was net known until January, At the conclusion of Mr. Dickinson testimony the prosecutors informed the Court that as tbe cross-examination had shown that the witness did not get the amount of the shortage from an examination of the booas utilise if, they would agree lo tbe M0TI03 or THK Ptyr.HSE Made before, that all testimony relating to the amount of the shortage be stricken from the record. Tbe Court permitted It to be done against the objection of the defense. Mr. Goldsmith remarked that It did no harm as they were agreeing to what the deiense ft Ti I Ou Yes," replied Mr.

Phay, "we stick a red hot poker into your body and pull it out, and you say it does not hurt." The next witne-a was H. F. Hecker, an inspector agencies for the L. and Company. Ue testified to examining the books In tbe office here, and that he found the shortage to be 42.

Mr. Menx aided him about ten days and then quit, 'ihe state tried to allow why be quit, but the Court; would not allow it. Their reason, as given to 1 the Court, was that tbe examination of the I books showed that Menz's former wort ou the books showed it to have been so bad that he quit aiding liecker. 1 When the Court adjourned the witness was in tne miust i wiling now -ucvoun oang account stood at the eud uf each month from March, 1891.

This shows the fluctuation of the business. The defense claims there was an overdraft, of when McCourt took the office.

During the afternoon man named Jack Mckinley, a railroad employe, got into the room while the Bailiff was out on business. He was drunk. After sitting aw bile he arose, and, flourishing his arms, began yelling something incoherent which no one could understand. He was hustled out of the room and threatened with arrest if he returned.
