SENSATIONAL EVIDENCE. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received August 23. 10.25 a.m.) SYDNEY, August 23. A sensational feature of Scully’s further evidence was his statement that ho had difficulty in inducing Goldstein, one of the. witnesses in the I.W.W- case, to give Judd a statement, Goldstein fearing that when tho police knew he had signed a statement against them he might bo done away with.

Scully, explaining his references to M’Allister’s mysterious death, said he was of opinion that M’Allister did not die a natural death. One side or the other gob him. Scully said he saw M’Allister perfectly well the day before he died, and had an appointment with him at his (.Scully's) solicitor’s the next day, which M’Aliister did not keep. Instead, Scully * heard that M’Allister had been found unconscious in a back yard. Next day he learned that M’Allister had died of pneumonia. Goldstein, examined, admitted having made an' untrue statement impugning the police in order to imperil the Government and get even with the police for having mined him at the Irish Inquiry.

Detective Saiushury gave evidence that he had never received instructions to suppress the Critchley Parker pamphlet, which, he said, was Sinn Fein, I.W.W, and Roman Catholicism ali in one. Witness stated that a picture of Robert Emmet was found in every person's place searched.
