THE ABDUCTOR'S VOICE BETRAYED Hi's I DENTITY CROSS QUESTIONIN1G EAILS TO SHAKE THE WITNESS IN HIS POSITIVE ASSERTION THAT THE PRISONER IS GUILTY. Omaha, April 25. In the trial of Jamies Callahan, on 'the charge of being connected rwith the kidnapping; -of Ed ward Oudahy, young Cudahy told about the light onan'o return to the prison house about 11 o'clock on the night of the delivery of the money. The light man and the dark man held a conference downstairs and then re turned to their prisoner and told him they were going to take him home. Edward (Oudahy told, of the trip home, and of his being set down Iby his cap tors on '.riurty-sixitii street aotoiut . a Mock norths of the Pest house. Edward testified that he went back to the house two or three days later and redognized at. 'He described the building a-nd told its location. The boy was asked about James Cul lahan, and .told of seeing the accused on Sunday afternoon following Calla Hans arrest. He sai Callahan and the chief were talking. Then came the boy's identification iof Oaillahanr and dt was positive and, ab solute. "You, may state whether the dark man who put a pistol to your head and made you a pristoinier and who guarded you most of the time in he house and walked down the street with you and bade you goodbye when ytau were released, was one and the sarnie person," asked Gen. Cowin. 'It was Jim Callahan, the defendant in this case." From this point on Callahan was referred ta by name and no longer as thie dark man. Callahan betrayed no emotion when the kidnapped (boy declared he was one of the abducltors, but a syndcal smile played faintly over his features. On cross-examination young Cudahy admitted that the only direct view he had of the dark man's face was when he approached him and admitted that at that time he was pretJty badly scar ed. The boy admitted that he identi fied Callahan principally by his voice and said that hie would not be able to identify him by his appearance alone. In answer to a direct question the boy said he was as certain of the iden tity of Callahan as he was of the iden tity of hds father or mother. Hie thought it hardly iplassible .for there to be another voice like 'Callahan's. He said iCallahan had a sort of brogue and gave a peculiar turn to some words and seemed to talk thrtough his eeth.
