An interesting Point in Buxton a shia evidence As showing that Reid was thoroughly alarmed Over the escape be cause of the part he had played in it occurred when the witness told of a meeting with Reid in Hilson of auction rooms. Reid he said appeared to be up in the i s face was White arid he said he had engaged a. J. Andrews the lawyer to look after his interests.

Yet i have full Faith in your integrity and that you will fulfil your duties. I understand that there has been some criticism made by the masses outside As regards my allowing you your Freedom but i am not going in the Cross examination of j. A.

Instead of depositing. In the collected Buxton used the Money himself. I d often done it said Buxton. No doubt counsel. No doubt remarked that you went became Hagel asked you.". Buxton intimated that both explanation wore Correct. Hagel on the Friday had suggested that he go to the Bur lbs Block after the escape. And when he went on saturday he went because he wanted to find out whether Krawchenko was there or not. Close questioning As to the events when a made his trip on Friday Dis closed to chief Justice Mathers at he Royal commission the witness stated he had not entered the Block con tenting himself with spying out be land. He later said he did enter a and talked with Westlake playing the piano for him. There was Ateo a in Ference in the times assigned Fontne Friday visit. Formerly testified he had made his trip about 6 30 . Subsequently he fixed the time at 8 30 pin. Explaining this he said he did not believe he had sworn to the different times. He maintained that it was at 8 30 he Jade the trip. If 6f30 appeared in the former testimony it was due to a mistake of some kind he had not been sufficiently accurate perhaps in his night s. Events. Description of ithe Well did you see him on it appears to me i but Buxton would not swear to it and would not fix the time of ills meet ing. The did not recollect whether it was monday or tuesday. As far As that Plum Coulee bus iness is concerned he volunteered think it was the week before. I will swear it was not saturday asked who had visited my in jail and with whom he had gone Over his evidence the witness said Only the Crown prosecutors or. Anderson and or. Graham had visited him. He swore that he was out of. The1, provincial jail to give his evidence to a stenographer. J Buxton swore also that he Tiad not gone Over the evidence with w. J. I Wright a lawyer. Reviewing evidence. A great Deal of evidence already taken at the Royal commission As to Buxton s movements on wednesday Jan. 6, was again gone Over step by step by or. Bonnar. Buxton he 1 his ground in connection with the fact that Hagel had sent for him on this occasion. Hagel phoned for me said the witness in part. Reid came into the office while i was there. 1 went up with the cartridges. This was be fore i had the boy steal the gun from Ashdown the matter dealing with the gun which was stolen by the boy from Ashdown a invariably leads to much argument. Buxton always hedging around the word stolen and he strongly objects to his actions in this connection being called stealing. In the end. However he is always forced to admit that it was stealing. The witness makes much of Many Small Points Over which he is very particular. He will not admit that he gave the two guns which were redeemed from Zimmerman is loan of face to Hagel but persists in saying be placed them in the drawer of the desk where Hagel got the same applied to some cartridges which he gave Reid. He will not say Reid received them from him but says Seiil took them out of my it is a Fine Point and one closely watched by the witness. In connection with the incident of filing the numbers off the revolver eventuality handed in to Krawchenko Buxton says that he and Reid filed them of. But that Hagel knew it was going on if he did not see them actually at work and whether Hagel Dia or not he says he cannot say. Rings in Hagel. I did not know As much about the Law then As i do now he said this witness is a shrewd Man no doubt about it said or. Bonnar. Another slight discrepancy. Another slight discrepancy concerned Hie actions on saturday night when he vial Ted Krawchenko in the Bur lbs Block. But Buxton explained this apparently to the satisfaction of the court. It had reference to the lighting of the Block formerly Bux ton said the Hall waa in darkness and later said it was lighted momentarily there we re he said two Halls one Public and one private. The latter was illuminated for a second but h had not mentioned that fact before How did you dare to visit this Kraf Cybenko who. Required approach ing formerly by seven.1 policemen said or. Bonnar. Of Krafe Henko Loew who Buxton was he tells me that he knows you said or. Bonnar. Yes Hagel or Westlake no doubt described me to him and told him to expect a visit from Money paid Krawchenko in. Reference to Money paid Kraf Chenko by Buxton or. Bonnar read from the testimony at the preliminary hearing that the amount was $25. Bux ton denied positively he had Ever sworn that. The sum handed to him by Hagel to Transfer to Holt for Krawchenko was ?10. He had said so All along., and Stulc to it. In this same connection Buxton declared he still believed Holt and West Lake had been taken advantage of. Thank you said counsel. I knew nothing against Jack West Lake added the witness. Telling How he had filed the num Bers of the Gal that was to be Given to Krawchenko Buxton stated it was done in Bagel s office. It was first scratched with a file by himself to give it the appearance of having been dragged up the Central police station Wall to Krawchenko s cell window while Busy at this task Westlake came into Hagel s. Office. I stuck the gun under my coat d Buxton. It was made Clear by books that Westlake s presence was not desired and being a gentleman he closed the door behind him and went Southern Alberta Wool goes South i big increase in Price this year owing to abolition of american duty.

Surrendering to a number of Well known Winnipeg business men his own interest a pro a Otei e interest in a summer resort scheme lie had induced them to Back for that consideration they discharged is obligation to or. Grandy and no prosecution was attempted. Referring to the summer resort scheme Buxton said it was t my Buxton. Never allows an Opportunity fault that it never went any further. Next or. Bonnar asked the witness if he h cd Ever been a Thiel detective what he was doing with the police on a certain occasion in fort William had he not been a spotter and. A Stool Pigeon and had he no for a monetary consideration got men into trouble. 1 two wives to to All these queries Buxton replied expected. You bought the and you gave it to Buxton winced slightly when these facts were fired at him but owned up that they were right. He stated at every remark that Hagel Toad told him to do All these things. Or. Bonnar with emphatic denials. Where do you live Arak de the counsel. What do you mean where do you reside when you Are not living where you Are now no. 289 Queen with your wife and your children i have no who lives at no. 7 Cumberland court mrs. Mary m. and who us that my former wife. We were Separ ated two years ago last Buxton explained that his first marriage contracted in the United states was a common Law marriage. His Sec Ond marriage was Legal. He said when asked if he two establishments that he had supported his former wife since the separation. Admits discrepancies Buxton admitted having made Sev eral errors in his former testimony when closely pressed As to dates and times with reference to is acquaint Ance with Reid. He declared his connection with rid dated from dec. 15 to the time of the escape. This is contrary to his declaration yesterday and before the Royal commission when he gave the Date of his first acquaint Ance with Reid As january 5 or 6. At the Royal commission he said he had not been subjected to minute Examina Tion and he had consequently no doubt confused Many Points More Over when giving that evidence he had been fatigued with a strenuous night at the police station. Asked to Tell who were present at the police station when he first told his Story Buxton named chief Mac Pherson de. Anderson k.c., Hugh Philipps and John Allen Deputy at Torney general. He was not sure about w. H. Hastings prosecutor. There were others he did not remember. Buxton admitted that before Reid had been introduced to Hagel the lat ter had discussed the Krawchenko Case. A visit of Ila gel s to Plum Coulee involved witness in a difficulty and Fin ally he refused to fix the Date of that visit. First he said Hagel called him up from Plum Coulee on Jan. 3. But when counsel Drew the inference that his conversation with Reid said to have taken place on that Day was not in to pass without making it very Clear to the jury that if he did a thing Hagel told me or it was under instructions from Hagel and this Al jays results in a sneer from or. Bon. Nar and a laugh now and again from the spectators. Tie bearing that the Luger son Hiis on the whole Case is that Reid been in afraid that the police might Trace the Cun to him. Bought Luger cartridges As a Bluff and if the police found these cartridges in the cell they would never connect the revolver having been driven to Krawchenko with Reid since his gun was a .32. This was explained by the witness under Cross examination which still bids fair to continue for another Day. He further stated under examination by or. Bonnar that he had some soft nose bullets but that Hagel had disapproved of those because they made a tearing wound. A slight discrepancy was brought out in the morning hearing when Bux ton testified that the plan As outlined to him was told him by both Hagel and Reid in the former s office. Be fore the Royal commission he had Testi fied that Reid did most of the explain d_., � c x i i i mra to a an these things. R. Bonar taken place o that Day was not Izo free a Russ showed that according to Buxton s the presence of Hagel. E hedged it mini its at the preliminary exam i Arn not sure of th3 1 ing. I have god on my twisted on one occasion . Boh Nar. Buxton straightened up and said i am telling the truth.-1 have god Al might on my this seemed to amuse the spectators very much. In connection with certain evidence read out to Kim Buxton became very confidential. Let us Analyse this to Gether said he to or. Bonnar. Springs Surprise. A slight Surprise was sprung when or. Bonnar asked the witness if he had Ever had Krawchenko at 7 Cumberland court. Never in my life replied the wit Ness. Were you Ever in the basement of the Grain Exchange together making any plans asked or. Bonnar. "never,1 replied the witness. Those who know or. Bonnar state that he has some reason for this Peculiar question and that before the try i is Over there will be some startling surprises sprung. 1 afternoon session. Continuing his Cross examination a the afternoon sitting or. Boniar examined Buxton closely on a number of Points arid exposed a few More die Cre instance in his Evi Dence at the preliminary hearing and before the Royal commission the wit Ness apparently failed to make it Deal that he visited Krawchenko at the burrs Block on the saturday night a Hagel s request. Reading from Hie for Mer to Why he mad that trip or. Bonnar showed that Thi witness said i wanted to Karo whether he got there or got rid of bronchitis the worst feature of bronchitis is the tendency to return year after year until the. System is worn out and gives Way to consumption or other ravaging disease. Or. Chase s syrup of linseed and turpentine owes much of its great popularity to the feet that it positively cures bronchitis and this is about a severe a test As can be made of a Medicine of this kind.
