FOURTH DAY OF THE TEIAL
First WitBeas'Preved to Be a lively toe.
Invariably deferred to tlie PrisoBer

'Eves Holmes, . ,
Philadelphia, Oct. 31. When the
privileged persons had "been permitted
to eater the court room in "which the
trial of Holmes is proceeding, there ap
peared to be almost as many "women as
men present. 3Icst of them had seats
in the space- usually reserved for -witnesses.
Holmes, as calm and unmoved
as ever, -was .placed in the dock at JO
o'clock. His counsel promptly-vent to
him and a lpng,and earnest colloquy en
sued. 'Hdlhigsfflatalosfc of thetalMng,
and vras apparently offering suggestions
or perhaps giving orders. He appeared
to l)e "brighter and more- cheerful than
at anyame since; the trial began, . ana?
after Ms counsel liad resnmnd their seats
he chatted and laughed :vith two court
officers stationed nest td the little cage
in -which he sat. " "
The first -witness of the day proved to
beia lively one. This "was Sidney L.
Samuels, a member of the bar of Port
Worth, Tex., a young, cleanly shaven
nsan, -with a twinkling ye. and the ut--mofit
self possession. He spoke quickly
"and sharply and invariably referred to
Holmes as "the individual." This
amused even Holmes, -who smiled
Tbroadly -whenever the term -was used.
District Attorney Graham produced the
note identified by Mrs. Pitzel yesterday
jjirthe one Holmes pretended to pay at
fhp St. Xiouis bank and for "which purr
poso he took $5,000, from her. Mr. Samr
"pels said the bedy of the note "was in his
.handwriting. In the latter part of
April dt early in May, 1834, he said
there -was in Fort "Worth a man known
ns-H. H. Pratt. It was "this indivitL
"gaL" He was overseeing the erection
of. a. rstory structure as agent for Ben?
on T. Lyman, the supposed owner,
ratt came to tho witness and tried to
;negotiate a loan,. The note was never
f ndorsed per the loan made, however.
Inspector Gerry of the jnsurnnce oom
pany was recalled, Mr. Graham saying
he proposed to prove by him that
Holmes -was a much married man, and
Ithat Miss Yoke was -net his lawful -wife
-as he asserted, and is, therefore, incom
petent to testify,
'vThe defense entered a formal object
vfion to nil the evidence of Mr. Gerry
Concerning Miss Yoke, but were over-
.Soled,
, At this point a side door in the room
was opened and Miss Yoke, or Mrs.
Howard, the alleged wife, was ushered
in. She was at once called to the stand,
iand gave her testimony- in a whisper,
' which was interpreted by the crier. For
fho 'first rime Holmes broke down. He
.igazed steadily at her for a few seconds,
ihisfhands twitched nervously ami hps
opened and closed, but she carefully
avoided meeting his-cyes. - rlrrsttd - - 4
;denly bent forward over the little
desk in his dock and tears began to
trickle down his cheeks. Ho drew Ids
handkerchief out and for a moment or.
two sobbed. Then quickly recovering,
himself, he dried his eyes and bowed his
XL end, busfly engaged himself with his
-notes, but still occasionally giving a sob.
Sheriff Smith Aked to Explain.
Apsnx, Tex., Oct. 81. Governor Culr
bersonkas .sent a. fdegram fo Sheriff
Sputh of 'Tyler, anenf the burning of
.f he -negro rapist .there, The governor
wires the sheriff that it was his duty to
protect the prisoner at whatever cost
and demanded of him an explanation as
to -why ho did not do it. He further
says that he trusts the sheriff will per
mit nothing to deter him from the per
formance of his duty in promptly ar
resting all parties participating in tho
mob and bringing them before an ex
amining court at once. The governor
adds that in case the sheriff cannot do
this unassisted, he will take pleasure -in
lending executive assistance, but "that
tho mob must be apprehended at once.

Hot Springs, Oct. 31. All chance of
a Sght here today has paBedf aad there
is a stroHg protability that the whole
affair may be pat off until Kane day "be
tween the 7th and 10th. There was lit
tle hope for the big Sght expressed by
the crowds about the hotels today, and
little interest was manifested ia the
day's program outlined by the fight
managers. The general opinion was
that the affair had simmered down to a
bit of drama, and that (DorbettanrTFit?
suHaoos "were not likely to meet m
other than a legal battle, and not out
side "of an Arkansas court room. Early
in the day preparations were made for
Corbett's appearance at "Wliittington.
park. -The champion was fitted to ap
pear in the ring about noon, make a
short and -ancomplimeniary speech re
garding the absent Etasiinmoas aad,
after fulfilling his part of the contract
by offering to fight, to leave the town.
A large share of tho Hot Springs popu
lation started for the park about day
light, and waited with patience for the
outcome of the affair.
It wasreported that Corbettand Brady
would leave during the afternoon for
Little Rock, where they would give
Governor Clarke an opportunity to put
them on trial. Corbettwas invisible all
the forenoon. His backers guarded
their man with great care, and furnished
plenty of mystery for the hotel crowds.
The arrest of Pitzsimmons was the
cause of a deal of discussion and criti
cism by partisans of both sides. The peo
ple claimed that Ktarimmopshad given
himself into the governor's hand owing
to nerve failure, but the Australian's
sympathisers put the matter in an alto
gether different- light. The fact that
Joe Yendig had gone to meet the fighter
with the Hot Springs sheriff was com
mented 01 freely, and Fitzshnmons peo
ple reasserted that, knowing the man's
hatred, for Yendig, TEe" Corbett people
had deliberately put up the game to
prevent ffitzsimmons from arriving in
Hot Springs and claiming the $2,500 for
feit. Lxttxj-, Rock, Oct. 81. Rob Rtzsim
mons and Manager Julian came in this
morning at 9:40 from Pino Bluff in
charge of Sheriff Dillard of Miller coun
ty, and Deputy Sheriff Jesse Heard of
Little Rock. The party were at once
driven to the Capilal hotel, and Julian
and the New Zealander were inter
viewed a few moments after their ar
rival. Julian says that Brady's state
ment that his man had rushed into Gov
ernor Clarke's officers at Texarkana is
utterly false. He explained that he and
Fitzsunmons were in charge of Sheriff
Houpt from Marshall, and that- Houpt
was positive in his assertion that he
would get them safely through to Hot
Springs. Houpt had a warrant for their
arrest, and they liad nothing to do bu
go with him. "When Sheriff Dillard.
placed the fighter and manager- Tender-
arrest Sheriff Houpt TVf 91s0 arrested.
If Corbett will not agree to the new
match to come off .Friday, Julian soys
he will make any concession necessary
to get a fight.
Titzsimmons will fight Mm fer $10,
000 a side or he will fight him for noth
ing. The only stipulation that Julian
will make is that the fight shall be to a
finish. Should Pitzsimmons and Julian
be released without delay they cannot
pcssibly get to Hot Springs before night-,
and as Corbett will then be in Little
Rock, there is""no possible show of a
fight today.
It is given out as authentic that the
big event will occur tomorrow.

Lincoln, Oct. 31. In the district

way for the killing of her husband in a

D ARMENIANS TO BE EXEC LTED.
i;paoVUfy Fer tke Xrceat Xietiaglke
AUegetf Pretext.
Constantinopie, Oct.'Sl. A sensa
tion has been.caused here by the report,
generally believed to be correct, that
three Armenian notabilities of Trebi
z6nd, including a prominent ecclesiastic,
are to be executed on the ground that
they are responsible for the recent riot
ing there. -
According to statements made in Ar
menian circles about 800 Armenians
were killed during-the Sghting at Bitlis
with the Turks. The loss of thp latter
is said to be trifling.
Advices from. Moosh .say that the
leading Armenisne of that locality have
been conferring with tho representative
Tarks of that city and neighborhood as
to the means to be adopted in order to
preveat the outbreak there of disorders
similar to those which have occurred re
cently in different parts of Armenia, and
which have resulted in much bloodshed.
It is added that the Turks stipulated
that the American missionaries who aro
distributing relief to the suffering peo
ple of Sassoun withdraw from this in
three days, otherwise, the Turkish nota
bilities claim, they fear there will be a
massacre such as has just occurred at
Bitlis.
In view of the critical situation of
affairs outlined above, the.Unired States
ambassador, Mr. Alex Terrell, has ad
vised the American. imssioBarks to
withdraw temporarily from 'Sassoun.
At- the same fime Mr. Terrell has noti
fied the Turkish, goverameat that the
United States will hoM itrespoBsTbte for
the lives of the Arseric&n missionaries.
The United States ambassador has taken
a firm stand in the matter, and nothing

KENTUCKY HUMOR.
Anedotes of Hamphrey Marshall,
Soldier and Congressman.
Edward J. McDermott, in an article
entitled "Fun on the Stump" in The
Century, relates tho following :
Just before the war Humphrey Mar
shall was a great debater in congress.
During the war he was a Confederate
general. He was very large and stout
a veritable Falstaff. At the breaking
out of the war lie wrote to an officer 0?
the north and warned him not to. invade
the sacred soil of EentucJky, for if he
did he would have topsu-sover tho dead
body of Humphrey JIarsha J, The north
ern office replied t "Dear general, we
WQnHpags over your dead body. We
prefer to tunnel through.
After the war the general had a good
practice, but he was extravagant and
often in need of money. Once he was
dogged by a collector who had been put
off dozens of times. At last the collector
paid: "General, you have said to me
time after time: 'I cannot pay you this
week. Come next. ' Now, I can's afford
to be coming here all the time. Ton
must fix the day. "When will you be able
to pay me?" "D n it, sir," said the
general, "do yonthink lam aprophet?"
When the general was runninjr for
congress against Jtfr. Blank, after tho
war, fie tried to draw out Mr, Blank's
exact opinions by a close debate on the
stump. In such sn, intellectual conflict
few men could compete with Humphrey
Marshall Mr. BlamX parried and fenced
as well as he could- "Finally Marshall
said one evening in his ponderous tones
and impreive manner:
"Fellow citiaens, 1 have tried to pin
Mr. Blank down and make him give me
9, fair statement of, his opinions and
principles, but he Sits about so nimbly
that it is impossible to follow him in an
argument. In dodging a debate he re
minds me of a bobolink flitting along a
zigzag worm fence, hopping or flying,
first on one side of the fence and then
on the other, until the mind is bewil
dered, aed it is impossible to tell on
which side he is at any moment"
Father Dseey.
There are few clergymen or priests
in this city who have the wide acquaint
ance and influence of Father Dneeyof
St Leo's Earn an Catholic charch.
Father Dscey's influence is by np means
limited to persoss of nis own faith. A
friend recently told se a. story illus
trating the priest's Methods. According
to my friend, Father Dncey entered
Delmonico's cafe cae night not long
ago and walking ap "to a party of
wealthy gentlemen seated at one of the
tables said: "I have just come from a
"visit to a family, ore member of wiica.
i at the poiat of. dmtk. The family is
destitute. I wat $1 03 from yoa gestle
mm." Ih a moment mck member of
