PAltls , March 20. [ New York Hcralt
Cable-Special to the BEE. ) The Parl' '
police court decided , Thursday , a very atnus
Ing marriage agency case , In which the huro
Inc , a Miss Leal , had already exercised tlu
same Industry In New York , Boston and i
place called Bethleham , somewhere hi tin
United States. Miss Leal Is a very prett :
brunette , tall , gracefully formed , and dressei
In the latest fashion. It appeared tha
Madame Demartler started the marrlagi
agency In Paris two years ago In the boule
vnrd St. Germalno. Miss Leal was presentee
to over fifty different fiances of all ages , f ron
twenty to seventy. She managed to reap i
rich harvest of wedding presents , and at tin
last moment , when she was unable to breal
off the engagement , she even went so far ate
to marry her various suitors , carrying then
over to England for the purpose. Miss Lea
afterwards sat up another matrimonla
ngency In the rue Washington , right In th
center of the American quarter of Paris
near the Champs Elysees. Her partner li
the new establishment was a venerable ma
trou-liko woman named Lepron. Even thi
Judges burst into laughter in the cour
Thursday as witness after witness filed U ]
nnd recited their piquant experience.
A DULLED BANK CLKIlIi's TESTIMONY.
The first called was named Lefevre. H
was a little , red- faced bank clerk from Llm
oges. The following Is his testimony : "
read In the newspapers an advertisement de
mandlng a young man , without a fortune , t
be the husband ot a young lady who hai
a fortune of 1,250,000 francs , but whose morn
character had a pntlto tache. I at once an
swcrod the advertisement , posing myself a
a suitor. Madame Demartler wrote me b
return post , saylnz tbo young lady wished ti
see me and Judge of my personal appcaranc
before marrying me. So 1 started tor Paris
and Mmo. Demartler introduced mo to th
pretended mother of the young lady , a re
spcctablo looking lady'ol about sixty. Nex
flay I was introduced to my fiancee , Mis
Leal. I was perfectly charmed with hei
Mmo. Demartler told mo 1 must buy som
Jewelry for my fiancee as a present ,
went at once and bought 200 franc
worth of rings and brooches and returned am
showed them to Mine. Demartler , who sal
that was very little for a young lady who hai
got a million and a halt ot francs. 1 wen
oft again to the Jeweler and botiht 4,00
francs worth ot presents. The marriage wa
fixed for the 15th of January. My fiancei
and her mother meanwhile went to Londot
where for eight days I accompanied Mrm
Demartier and my fiaucco and my futur
mother-in-law to all the theaters and the mo ;
expensive entertainments. Then wo a
came oyer to Paris again , always at my o ?
pense , where they were made ocqualnte
with my family. I at once wrote to in
mother aud aunt to come to Paris. They dli
so. Wo all met in a grand family banquet ,
always paying the expenses. When my aut
discovered that my fiancee was an advei
turess , and after Miss Leal had addressed tb
most violent language to my aunt and to m
mother , we three returned to Ltmnge. "
A DUPED MEnCIIANT'S BTOltV.
Another witness was M. Francis Bols
seau , a Lyons merchant lie said : "I at
Hwerod an advertisement in the papers I :
which a young girl with a dowry of 300.0C
francs was offered In marriage. Muio Di
inartler made me pay 150 francs commisslo
to begin with. She then took mo to th
opera , where my fiancee was pointed out t
inc. She occupied the lirat tier box and wi
accompanied by an aged femals whom I vvf
told was her aunt , the widow of a Spanls
general. "
Here one of tbo judges Interrupted wit
the remark : "Tho evidence shows that o
the same evening there were four of you :
opera , all admiring the same fiancee. "
OTIIIIU 1NTK.RK8TIKO EVIDENCK.
The next witness was M. O. Latsoln ,
Parisian hairdresser , lie stated the sain
experiences as M. Bolsscau except that tti
Oi > era Cotutquo was the scene of the explol
Instead of the opera.
M. Deslie Danchot , a stock broker , with
larco blonde beard and blue eyes , testified
"Mmo. Donmrtler presented mo to Miss Lei
as a nlcca of an Kngllsh lord and heiress (
400,000 trances. 1 wanted to marry her rlgl
off. I paid at once a small commission'
about 900 frances-and Invited the who
party to the theater. Wo then went to Lo
don , where wo were married before a re
istrar. Wo had a dallghtful honeymoon an
IP a few days returned to Paris. "
The Judge You even went so far as i
adopt Mks Leal's Illegitimate child ?
Danchot I consented to this sacrifice b
cause I believed the mother to be very rich.
Other witnesses followed , all relating tl
samu story with amusing variations.
A L1UHT SENTENCE.
The Judge sentenced Miss Leal tofot
months Imprisonment , and Mine. Demartle
in default , as the police am unable to fin
ber , to three years Imprisonment. When tl
sentence was pronounced Miss Leal turnc
pale and swore at the judges in English ac
was dragged from the court room bettvcc
the two gen d' armes. Miss Leal Is of En
llsti not American nationality.
A I'ICTUIIKSQUE INCIDENT.
All Parts rejolcos that the bitterly co
weather and rumors of war that the wlnt
brought in its train are now vanished. Tl
warm spring weather , a sort ot harmony i
sunbeams and April showers , now reign s
preme. The champs Klysees and avenue di
Acacias are crowd-id with promenaders , I
carriages and on foot.
The two great political events of the w < x
have been the reception given by a Germs
embassador at Paris even since 1STO , and i
present are not likely to forget the followlt
picturesque Incident which happened ther *
few minutes after midnight the exaet m
nifnt that began Ins ropcror's ulnetle
birthday : Atone end ot the spacious throi
room and over th steps representing tl
throne and surmounted by the Imptrl
arms , wai exposed a full length IK
ol Kaiser WiUiclm IB til tl
plondor of a field manual's uniform. Ton
paces In front of the kaiser's portrait stood
Jcucral Doulangcr , cordially shaking hands
vith Count Munster , the German embassa-
dor. At the same Instant a glee club , com
posed of twenty-four young Germans resl-
lent at Paris , sane In German , melodies of
Jach and Meiidclsbohn. Hum M. DeLcs-
seps , stepping briskly forward , grasped the
'jerinan embassador's hand. Involuntarily
n circle formed around the distinguished trio ,
and with the aid of a llttlo Imagination It
seemed as If tbo a-cd emperor , smiling from
ho throne , was pronouncing n benediction
ipon the scene. As tlio glee club finished
: he last notes of the sons , General Bottlangci
exclaimed : "Oh , c'est trcs beau ; c'est trca
beau. "
THE IIUSSIAX rsni.vssY nicnrTioM.
The reception Thursday night at the Rus
sian embassy was very brilliant. The Iluv
slau ombassador , Baron de Mohrenheim , is
now virtually tlio prime minister of Franca
Ills excellency Is about flfty-suvou years of
ago aud bears a strlcklng resemblance to the
late Jacques Offenbach , lie Is a llttlo man ,
But has a very Imposing presonso. llo Is
very near-sighted , so much so that it Is dlfil-
cult to toil the color of his eyes. Ills nose
and moustache and cars are the exact counter
part of those of the lamented Offenbach. M ,
DC Mohreuhelm Is one of the most discern
diplomatists and ono of the keenest wlttetl
men In Paris. He Is also a most rigid dls-
clullnarlan on all points of ofliclal etiquette ,
a tact which makes his omission to Invite M.
Floques , president of the chamber , to the re
ception of the Russian embassy all the more
marked. The Russian ombassador'a slight
est wish In all that regardstho foreign affairs
of Franco Is now regarded as law bj
M. Goblet and M. Flourons.
Among the thousand guests thai
thronged the salons of the Russian em
bassy were noticed , besides tlie entiio corps
diplomatique , lo Marechel etMuio. Courdbes ,
the Due du Chcsse do Mouchey , Due < lc
Montmorency , Due and Duchesso do la

Generals Boulanger , Dalzac , Saussler , The-

were noticed chatting pleasantly tcgethei
over a pate do folo gns and champagne. M
Daubro , the great authority on earthquakes ,
was surrounded by an eazer coterie ot refu
ges from Nice and the Riviera.
THE HULOAniAN SITUATION.
During the evening I had a very Interest
Ing conversation with a Russian dlplomatlsl
lately returned from Bucharest , I asked
"When Is the long expected Russian occupa
tlon of Bulgaria coming off ? "
The reply was : "Russia Is far too wlsi
ever to be drawn into such a mouse trap
Any Russian troops sent to Bulgaria woult
completely be neutralized in case of war
The fate ot the Balkan pcnsular could bo de
elded only by a war between Russia anc
Austria. Russia's policy Is to concentrate
all available forces on Austria's Galllcar
frontier and be prepared to strike rapldl ;
like a thunderbolt straight at Vienna , for i
Is solely upon Austrian territory that thi
eastern question can be decided. No senslbli
military man ever for a moment scrlousl :
thinks of tbo frittering away our forces It
Bulgaria when every man will be before loiij
bo needed in Galllcia. "
BOMB CIIAllMLNO TOILETS.
I noticed some charming toilets at thr
Russian reception. Seveial wore rivieres ol
diamonds disposed atnone the ornaments o :
the corsage and arranged In loops over thi
shoulder. The Comptesso do Grammoi
were a dress greatly admired. The corsagi
and underskirt were of white satin , the fron
of the latter covered with an apron draper >
in cold lace , held down and raised at the lot
side by a cluster of pale yellow ostrich fcath
era. Baronnes de Mohrenheim wore i
toilette in pearl grey , covered with a pro
fusion of magnificent lace riveres of diamonds
mends on the corsage and In tbo hair. Tin
Mesdemolselles de Mohrenheim were plait
white dresses , charming in elegant sim
plicity.
nCNTIWO FOB ASSASSINS.
The efforts of the police in trying to catcl
the murderer of three unfortunate female
in the rue Montatgue are being watched wltl
the greatest Interest and largo bets are belni
made as to whether Prawselnl , the man ar
rested at Marseilles , is really the assassin. .
called this morning upon M. Mace , th
famous ex-chief , at his villa at Champlmneg
on tbo Marno , a few miles east ot Paris. M
Mace is recognized to be the most able detcc
tlve in Europe. M. Mace Is slightly built bit
quick and agile In movements and his clear
blue eyes scorn to look right through you a :
he turns them upon you.
I asked , "Do you think that Prawselut wa
the murderer ? "
Mace-"No , but U is likely that ho wa
watching near by when the crime was com
milted ready to give warning to the real tu
sassln In casu there was danger of being di ;
turned. "
"Do you think likely the murderer will b
discovered ? "
Mace " 1 am afraid he never will be dlsco\
cred , as the police , having followed a fals
scent , much precious tlmo was lost. "
"Do you think the same man killed al
thre'e victims ? "
Mate "Yes , aud from the way In whic
the wounds were made it seems almost ce ;
tain that the murderer was by profession
butcher , as the cuts wore made exactly th
eawo way us at the slaughter houses at Vie
lette. "

A VISIT 10 TUB POPE.

by the Holy Father.

ROME , March 2 . fNew York Herald Cab ;
Special to the BKB.J To-day , shortly aftc
noon , with a number ot the American vis )
ore at Home , 1 bad an audience with th
pope , who for months post received vei
few. Nor would he perhaps have departc
from his rule but for the intercession of Blsho
Ireland. Entering by the gates otbrou ;
at a quarter to a o'clock I ascended the gran
staircase Icadluc to the piazza Sandamasi
As wo passed , the Swiss guards , In their pi
tureaque rod , black aud mediaeval unlforu
presented arms to each arrival. Up agal
two flights of marble stain we were salute
at every corner by papal gen d'urlnes. 0
the second floor , overlooking tbo whole Ete
nal City was a splendid sala Del gu&rdli
i ' where a detachment ot Swiss halberdier
anged In line , once more saluted. At length
he door of the pope's private apartment was
cached. The papal lackey , all In crimson
ienocso velvet , relieved mo of my
tat aud showed nit ) through three antc-cham ,
> ers hung with old masters into a large ,
square , crimson room , hung with tapestry
representing the miracles of Christ , where
'orty or fifty Americans , male and feiualo ,
the men In ovoulng dress without gloves
ho ladles In black , with Spanish mantillas.
3ishoDS Keane , Wattorson aud It eland stood
together talking to the arrival. At the other
of the room was a group of noble guards
of the Papal Camesicrl. Bovond them I saw
other crimson rooms , where more noble
guards with drawn swords were presenting
arms to the cardinal who had lust left the
pope's study. So wo sat and wilted twenty
nlnutes while 1 made up my mind that
black In ecm-rat , aud Spanish mititlllas In
particular did not becoma American beauty
Many ladles had brought boxes of trinkets to
jo blessed , while others held watch chains
uid lockets In tholr hands. At
least half of these present were Pro-
testanU. Presently the prelate ushered us
nto the adjoining s.ila del trono and wo saw
'
a vcucrablo form , robed In white an'd scarlet ,
coming toward us. The guards again saluted
and knelt as Pope Leo , looking wanful , com *
pobed aud singularly gentle , entered. The
Dope smiled pleasintly aud romanced In
Italian : "So all these are our good Ameri
cans. " Whllo the bishops knelt before him
the pope seated himself on the thionc ,
beneath a red and golden canopy. Each
visitor was then presented seaparatoly , the
lirst being the rector of the American col
lege , Dr. O'Connell , who had just boon made
manager. The pope spoke to them in French
with some hesitation and a strong nasal
accent , and entered Into a long conversation
with O'Connell. To the American bishops
lie expressed surprise and pleasure at seeing
so many Amei lean Protestants. Ho talked
with lively Interest of the plans of the now
Catholic university at Washington and the
projected now American college at Route.

LONDON , March 20. fMcw YorK Herald
Cable-Special to the BKK. ] To-day's Field
has a long editorial on the Dauntless and
Coronet race and ou general racing topics.
It says : "There Is not often so much in
terest aroused in yachting circles at this
season of the year. We must meander back
for anything of the kind. The Sappho aud
Cambria matches , and the race between the
Dauntless and Cambria , after being dis
cussed , wore arranged by public correspond
ence.Ve have a better way of settling pre
liminaries now. But the course for the
Thames jubilee race has been , It seems ,
chosen In a much too wrong-headed way not
to provoke discussion. So far as challenging
the Mayflower goes , Chamberlalno cabled a
reply. He accepts , subject to certain
conditions which are such that
we have no doubt the owner of the May
flower will accent The principal difficulty ,
no doubt is the center board , and as Cham
berlalno enjoins that the match must bo
sailed Inside the Isle ot Wight , between Nob-
light ship and Hurst castle , the center
board of the Mayflower could not very well
be fixed down. As an alternative It is pro
posed that the board be stopped so as not to
be lifted above the maximum draught of
water of the Arrow. As this will only place
tbo Mayflower on terms with the Arrow so
far as to capability for working shoal water
goes , It can bo taken for granted that no ob
jection will bo raised , especially as the May
flower will still have some advantage by the
reduction of her immersed surface which she
can be made to undergo when her board
Is lifted , some three or four feet.
This is a matter which also may
require adjusting. So far as the
chances of tlio Arrow go , there Is no dis
guising the fact that she will have to undergo
a sort of metamorphosis under water to get
on anything ; like terms with the formidable
Yankee , and as the very considerable altera
tions which will have to be made are not
likely to be put in hand until the conditions
are finally agreed to , there is no chance of
the race taking place until the end of Au
gust Chamberlalne , it should be said , has
i.iade it a condition that one ot the yachts
must win two races to decide the ownership
of the cup. The work of altering the old
ship will , of course , be carried out In Cham-
berlaine's own yard , Southampton , by John
Moore , and It can be taken for granted that
Chamberlalno will spare no expense in car
rying out what his judgment tells him should
be done. We believe the general nature of
the alterations have already been thought
out , so there will be no delay when the news
arrives that the conditions are agreed to ,

AMERICAS MISSION WORKS.
What Ilai Been Accomplished in tin
Interior of Asia Minor.
LCupyrtoht 1887 by Jamti ( Jordan Dennett. ]
LONDON , March 20. | New York Herah
Cuble Special to the i3iK.l : Yesterday , a
a matter undoubtedly Interesting to many o
our readers , I attended a drawing room meet
Ing beld at lh couse of Sir TancreU , bark in
Bayswater , for the purpose of explalnlng'the
objects and work of tho.Aincrlcan mission In
Asiatic Turkey. Dr. Tfowbrlge , president ot
the Central Turkey college at Alntab , North
ern Syria , took the chair. The proceedings
were opened by Sir Tnomas , who described
thn nature of the country aud the people
within the region of the mission. It ap
pealed that the college Is an Institution
which sprung up in connection with the
work of Amciican missionaries In the
Turkish empire. The Immediate object Is
the training ot men to not as native pastors
and teachers In the surrounding region , to
jive others an education and enable them to
liccomo doctors , lawyers and merchants.
These who are to become pastors received
additional training In a theological seminary
at' Marash , sixty miles north. The
people bcnefittcd were mostly American ,
tmt persons of nil nationalities and
religions are eligible. At the
liosplUl at Aintab , the only ono of any value
In the Interior of Asiatic Turkey , over 2,000
clinical patients have been treated in IbSC.
For the past ten jears between ten and
twenty medical students have constantly
been under training. The teachers ot the
college were Africans and Armenians edu
cated In America nnd the ait schools of Tur
key. The situation of the college Is healthy
and central , bolng sixty miles north of
Aleppo and thirty miles from the Euphrates.
It Is supported by tuition fees of students
and voluntary contributions. The native
people themselves have taken a deep Interest
In the Institution , and , although poor , con
tributed 57,000 towards tlio establishment In
1 ° SO. The people of Alntab alone raised
S1.000 for the hospital. Tlio income did not
cover tlio expenditures and more aid Is
needed. The Rev. Dr. Taylor also spoke In
favor of the work of the mission. The meet
ing voted thanks to Sir Thomas nnd Lady
Tancred for the accommodation. Acknowl
edgment was made also for the Interest and
aid heretofore had from .Now York , Boston
and Philadelphia.

Cable Special to'tho BEE. ] So many of the
kaiser's rojal guests have already left Berlin
that Sir Arthur Sullivan's personally con
ducted "Golden Legend" had an audience
whose brilliancy was a llttlo surpassed by
thnt of other events of Uie past week. To
night's opera house audience contained ,
however , a large nortiou of society , togethct
with all the musical element of Berlin , which
could find seats or even standing room. A
slight cold , the result of over exertion during
the. week , kept the kaiser In the palace. The
empress also was absent , but in the box
below the empty ) 'Imperial box sat ,
hidden by screens , Crown Princess Irene ,
with Father Grossbcrzo'g of Hesse , with hei
brothers near her instead of Prince llenry ,
her betrothed , alone , tnns attracting a good
deal of favorable notice. Crown Prince
and Princess of Sweden and Princes George
and Alexander sat In the boxes on the opposite
side facing the Princess. Frederic Ktirl. Every
scat In the house was.of. course , full. Prob
ably every scat could have been sold several
times over for to-ulcjit , but It can't be said
that ths rendition of the music was such as
to create great enthusiasm In the city vvhlcli
knows good music BO well ns Berlin docs. In
the short pnuso .bfhVe'en the seven scones
three times came " 'mild applause , once en
thusiastic. A youns foreigner , applauding
at tbo wrong time ? was promptly hissed
down. After the epilogue , ns Sullivan bowed
toward the crown princess and kissed his
hand toward tlio chorus , t'ucro was consld <

The Whttworth Steel Plant.
[ .Copyright iSSIlruJamts Gordon ncnnett. ]
MANCIIKSTKR , March 25. [ New York
Herald Cable Special to the BEE.J I made
exhaustive enquiries to-day In regard to the
rumored sale of the late Sir Joseph Whlt-
worth's steel plant to Americans. I was
ofllcially Informed at the works here that
there Is not the slightest foundation for the
rumor. The circumstances of the firm were
not at all affected by the death of Sir Joseph
Whttworth , as It is a limited liability con
cern , and will continue work as before , nnde :
the same managers and directors. The idea
of selling the plant had been broached. No
offer has been made from America , and no
such offer would under any circumstances be
considered. The company had not heard ot
the rumor until 1 called. Its secretary
said : "I can understand that In view
of the recent contracts for gun and armor
steel put out in the "states , " Uiat a firm like
Whltvvoith's , with ita large resources nnd
extensive apparatus , would If established in
America be able to run all other competitors
out of the field , and this idea may have
struck these Americans who have some
knowledge of our Manchester works. There
IE nothing in the rumor and I say authorl
tatlvely that it Is a mere canard In every
sense , Inasmuch as the Whltworth llmltet
company's plant cannot be bought noi
transplanted elsewhere. "

SHEltMAN AT CINCINNATI.
He Adili'cscss an Immense Meeting of
AVorklnginon.
CINCINNATI , March 20-Senator Shcrmnn
was given an ovation when ho was Intro
duced at the chamber ot commerce , llo made
a ten minutes speech , In which he referred to
the marvelous development ot the icsourccs
of the South. The remainder of his speech
was devoted to a criticism of congress for
falling to provide fora reduction of tlio sur-
ulus. He uxpicssed the hope that Secretary
talrchlld might be able to relieve the busi
ness world. This afteruoon Sherman , as a
curst of Mavor Smith , visited the Ulaiuo and
Lincoln clubs.
Senator Sherman to-night addtcsscd a
crowded meetinz of worklngmcn at Turner
hall , llo began his speech by declaring that
the effort to establish a third political party
could only result In Injuring one or both of
the great parties without accomplishing Its
object. The laboring man has more to
hope for from the republican party than
from the new party his own. Tlio
great question now 10 bo solved Is how to di
vide the results of labor equitably between
the laborer end the capitalist tlio laborer
who docs the work and the capitalist who
furnished the money. Labor and capital are
husband and wife they can't ho divorced.
Some way should bo devised to adjust equit
ably the earnings of labor and capital. This
proulem will bo solved. The democratic
party will not do it. Tiioy would
find n constitutional ditllculty In
the way Immediately. It will bo
solved some day. Perhaps a vvorldngman
will solve it , but it will bo In the republican
party , llo closed Ins speech by referring to
the prospects of the uroicress of the south and
of the extension of this country across the
Carribean sea Into South America. Kx-Gov-
eruor Moves then rose aud proposed tlueo
cheers. They were elveu with a will and
three more were given for the republican
ticket. After that Senator Sherman re
mained on the stage and shook hands with
such of the audience as could net to him. He
will remain here over night.
Grunt Monument Plans.
NKW YOHK. March 20. [ Special Telegram
to the BEII.J No decisive action has yet been
taken by the Grant Monument association
toward securing designs for the monument
to General Grant In Klversiilo park. Many
members of the association think It as well
that work was trot begun during the first en
thusiasm , oven had sufficient funds for the
monument been secured. The fund for the
monument , the cost of which has been placed
at $1,000,000. has reached about S125.000 , and
the amount has been placed by the executive
committee with a trust company. A number
of designs , sketches and suggestions have
been received for tliu monument
from eminent artists In Europe and Amer
ica. Among these Is one from the American
sulptor , W.V. . Story , In Home. His design
Is intended for a colossal monument. The
base combines a square tabernacle or mauso
leum formand this Is surmounted by a dome ,
and statue ot Giant , with a figure of victory
In front over the entrance and frieze on the
sides , Illustrating the events of war. In
general appearance It Is simple and massive.
"Something of tnls kind , " Story says ,
"would be costly , but It would bo Imposing.
I can say at least that It Is not like any monument
ment In America , and some such design
would be beautiful as well as grand and
serious. "
Fulrchlld Will Succeed Manning.
WASHINGTON. March 20. it Is now ro-
carded as settled that Assistant Secretary
Falrchlld will succeed Manning as secretary
of the treasury , and that his appointment
will bo ofllcially announced the latter part of
next week. Solicitor McCue and Comptroller
Mavnard are spoken ot as possible successors
of Falrchild as assistant secretary. Nothing
has yet been settled In regard to the treasu-
rershlp. Jordan's resignation has not yet
been accepted , and while ho requested the
drusldent to relieve him of the duties aud
responsibilities of office about the 3d of
April. It is thought he would consent to re
tain the position a while longer if the presi
dent so desired. The chances arc , however ,
that the president will bo able to select his
successor before the date specified by Jordan.
It Is said that the president desires to select
a new treasurer from the west.

TLo Testimony in the Haddock Trial Re
vives Excitement at Sioux Oity.
NEW EVIDENCE BROUGHT OUT.
\ Juror Cross-Question * \Vltncsn
For the Stuto In a | Very Insln-
untlnir Way Hail For
Arcnsdorf.
The Haddock Murder Trial.
Sioux CITV , la. , March 20. The fourth
day of the Haddock murder trial opened with
the appearance of M. D. O'Connell , of Fort
Dodge , who was appointed some tlmo ago to
assist ns state counsel. This makes the com
plement ot lawyers on both sides complete.
Interest In the-trial Is Intense as the testi
mony proceeds. Important witnesses for
the jnosecutlon are being held In reserve ,
these examined this morning con-
slutlng of residents In the Immediate
vicinity ot the scene of the tragedy
on tlio night of August 3. The most Im
portant of this number was an old man
named Van ItiRhnm , who now states with
considerable earnestness that thn form and
carriage of one of the men passed his window
on the run nftor the shots were filed and pro
ceeding from the scene of the murder. It
was John Arensdorf. This bit of direct testi
mony created n flutter of excitement among
the packed acdlence , but the testimony was
not unexpected by tlio defendant. The cross-
examination of this witness was unusually
vigorous and n contradictorylino of evldonco
was produced and clcaily admitted between
former statements nt the coroner's Inquest
nnd the testimony before the grand jury.
Van Incrham Is about sixty years of ago.
At the tlmo of the murder ho lived on the
west side ot the bridge , directly across the
cast side of which the shooting occurred.
Opposite his residence Is a frame biowery
building , but between It and the creek Is a
space of about eight feet trent , This space
Is used as a drivel-way along tbo side of the
building and a llttlo back from the
centre ot the brewery Is an entrance
of wide sliding door-ways , which
Is used for receiving and discharging beer
barrels. Actoss the bridge from the cast side
ran Atensdorf and Peters and tbo beer
wagon driver , who Is still missing. Coming
west towards the brewery and when about at
the west approach of the bridge , the electric
light dangling from the corner of the block
threw Its reflecting rays fully In the face ot
those two men as they passed within seven
teen feet of Hie window out ot which Van
Ingham was looking , turned up this drive
way leading to the double doorway , Arensdorf
In the lead and turning his head trom side to
side over his shoulders as ho ran. His com
panion Peters , the larger of the two. came
directly after him and looking straight ahead
they passed Into the side doorway. This Is
tbo story of Van Inghara. The remainder
of the evidence introduced so far to-day cor
roborates this witness to the
two men going across the bridge ,
but the testimony of Mrs. Ebcrhart , wife of
the proprietor of the Columbia houio. in
front ot whose place the minister was killed ,
does not agree with the story of Van Ingham
as to the number and speed. She did not see
them , but thinks from the sound there must
have been three men cross the bridge and
that they were walking Instead of running.
Juryman Webster received permission from
counsel and the.court and asked Van Ing-
ham where- the men were when he saw
them.
"They were on the west end of the bridge. "
Here the juryman became Intensely par
tisan In hU actions and words , and with
much feeling aud emphasis asked questions
and added constructions to the witness' tes
timony that fairly raised the excitement In
the court room to a sensation. Either Web
ster was seeking to befuddle
the witness on the question
of Identification BO far as related to Arens-
dorf , or was covering up his Intentions by
purposely leaving his words , and feeling In
the direction of the defense. Mr. Van
Ingrain's aueand feebleness made him a poor
witness , and the severe cross-examination to
which he was subjected very much destroyed
the value of his evidence.
Another Important bit of testimony was
given by John Fit/.slmmons , the first witness
called to-day. He was looking out of the
Columbia house door when the shot was
fired , and through the darkness saw the as
sassin commit the deed , hut It was too
dark to 4 recognize him further than
to state that the color of his
paints was light Tne man who fired the
shot went toward the bridge. Fltzslimnons
described the shooting of Haddock with con-
sideiable dramatic force and effect. "Just
before the shot was fired , out of the window
of the Columbia house I saw Haddock go
over the crossing. The man that did the
shooting walked out from Dineen's
corner. The night was dark. The
two men met about twelve feet from
Dlneen's corner. When the man came out
from the corner and met Haddock ho passed
the latter about a foot and then turned and
shothlirr. There was no scuflle. The man
that fired the shot walked toward the Colum
bia house. Haddock staggered around quite
n little bit , gurgled and fell ou his bands and
knees. I shut the front door of the Columbia
house at the request of Charles
Eberhardt , proprietor. The man that
fired the shot passed Haddock on the
right , and when about ono foot past
htm wheeled and tired the fatal shot. The
man that did the shooting had not reached
the lamp-post when ho disnppcai ed from sight.
The man had on light-colored pants ; did not
see the face of the man that fired the shot 1
ran up stairs , woke my partner nnd came
down ; wont over with a bucket
of water and washed his face off.
Met the police. They told mo to keep quiet
till morning. 1 nm now bonidlng nt tliu
Columbia house ; could not see the color of
the clothes of the man that filed the shot
only by the pistol flash. I saw his pant" .
They were Iteht. 1 slightly know Areus-
dort. "
R. R. McAllister , another Columbia house
boaider , whoio bedroom vvas on the Hide ol
the street adjoining tlio bridge over which
the nssassin was supposed to have run , tcstl
lied : "I was about to lay
down ; looked out of the window ,
saw two men walking rapidly west across
the bridge aud others going north on Water ,
nnd at the vacant lot ; did not know any ol
the men. The men going acioss the bridge
walked rather leisurely. 1 think thorn were
thtco. The men were running uu Watei
street. "
At the nfternoon session the court roon
became uncomfortable. As the fitory of tlu
crime la unraveled the Interest nnd public
cutloslty intensifies. The biislnrxft of thi
town Is practically at n standstill nnd trade It
carried on In an Inactive , Indifferent manner. .
The people have become thorough ! )
wrapped up In the mysteries of the caie , nn <
as the awful deed Is unfolded the lever ant
tumultuous sympathies of last August an
being awakened to the mine suppressed de
gree of emotion. The. densely packed court
room U as quiet during the glvine of evl

Hut when some new bit ot startling cvldenn
Is brought out the suppressed whispers niu

T. P , Murphy was being driven homo frorf

depot. When about n half block from tl *
