when Attorney Greenstelu asked him
it he was a friend of ‘Minerio’e (the
previous ‘wltnensl and he replied
"Yes, and Put a friend of yours, too."
Friendship Severed.
Then Attorney Greeusteln made
llnrlno admit that he had been or.
rented, that he had poor eyesight. and
that his interest in Cesare was be-
cause of what he could make out of
it. That gave Acting State's Attorney
Pullman an opportunity in the re-
direct examination to get Mr. Borlno
to admit that he was a frequent caller
at the law office of Fallon and Green-
stein, und‘thal he brought them a lot
of business and got paid for it. So it
1 would seem that the long time friend-
ship between Borlno and the attorney
is now severed. '

He was asked if he and Mike Aiello
and Cbipadello had conspired ‘to com-
mit an assault on the [derrmun worn-

heat that he would not do such a
cowardly thing, and added that he
never saw the woman before the
present trial.
“Did you and Aieilo and Chipudello
force Lagno to cut Dora Herrman and
did you say he would be shot if he
did not do it?"
“That is not true."

When asked about his overcoat, he
said that the only one he had was a
large grey coat, the one which he had
in court. On the night of February
10 he were that coat and a cap.
Cesare stuck to this story under

Attorney Pullman. The latter asked
him if he had not forced [438110 to pay
