"Where were the police when Fielden said. 'Now, a word more boys, and we will go home'?"--"They were coming up Desplaines street." "Where was Spies then?"--"I don't know. I don't remember." "Well, didn't you see Spies on the wagon?"--"Yes." "When?"--"I don't think now. Early in the evening, I think." "Now, when you were talking to Albright, did you talk about what the speakers were saying?"--"No." "Did you talk about the eight-hour question?"--"No." "What were you talking about?"--"About the shop." "Now, where did you see the bomb?"--"It was about ten feet in the air, about twenty feet south of the alley. I didn't see it explode." "No, of course not. It was too far south." "There then was some boxes on the sidewalk, and you couldn't see?"--"I did not say there were any boxes on the sidewalk." "Yes, but if there were any boxes there you would have seen them?"--"Yes. I would have seen them if they had been on the sidewalk." "And you did not see them there?"--"I did not." (All the other witnesses for the defense testified that a big pile of boxes stood on the sidewalk between the alley and a point where the bomb exploded.) "And you say you did not see those boxes?"--"I did not." "When were you at the Haymarket?"--"May 4." "Were you ever there in your life?"--"Yes." "How about a lamp post. Did you see one?"--"I don't remember now, but I know there is one at the southeast corner of the alley." "How do you know this?"--"I worked at the corner of Randolph and Jefferson streets for ten years, and remember it." "How long ago was that?"--"Seven years ago." "And you can remember that a lamp post stood at the southeast corner of the alley after the lapse of seven years?"--"I can." "Where is your wife now?"--"Living on Sedgwick street." "Whereabouts?"--"I don't know. I have not seen her for a year." "How did you come to go to Salomon & Zeisler's office?"--"I saw a notice in the _Arbeiter Zeitung_ asking for all that knew anything about the bomb-throwing to call on them. I went there on Sunday." "When did you see this notice?"--"Some time ago. I don't remember when." "Did you talk with any one about this bomb-throwing?"--"Yes, with Albright." "Any one else?"--"No." "Yet you saw the bomb in the air and heard the explosion but you did not talk to any one about what you saw?"--"That's it."
