Ex-City Clerk VanDuyn was the llrst witness - ness called. Ho said ho was routed out of bed at 3 o'clock , the morning after the can- , vnss by S. M. Mollck , n Graham partisan , | . | who said that thcro wns going to bo a con- I'/tc.it ' over thu mnyorality , and suggested ' . / that ho take hotter care of the ballots. Ho 1 4 Accompanied Mollck to the Windsor hotel , n block from the city hall , but didn't go over , 1 as everything looked nil right from there. l j Jiosncnt two hours at the hotel , and nt 5 o'clock wont ovor.

The only sensational feature in the Hussoy murder trial wns the testi mony of Dr. GIfTeu , whom the dead man told on his death bed that ho had reached down to help Hussoy into the car and the revolver was accidentally discharged. The evidence of Dr. GifTcn , Dr. Knnpp and others familiar with the youncr man's acts since his incarceration and the history of his case , as shown by the dcix > sitlons from Dayton , O. , testified thnt they believed that ho was insane. At G o'clock the evidence wns all in and the case wns submitted with out argument. About 7:30 : the jury returned Into court with a verdict of acquittal. Hussoy will leave tomorrow morning' with his father for his old homo in Dayton. Eniy of Aocom. C. U.

The boxes containing the ballots were piled in a semicircle Inside the row of councflmnnic desks , H 3 helped him self to the ballots ho wanted , which had been thrown in with city envelopes. Ho noticed that the envelopes of some wcro torn. VanDuyn and his deputy were in and out , and at times as many ns fifteen or twenty poonle wcro in the room. There was apparently no restriction as to toying with the boxes. The law states that If it can bo proven thnt ballots have been left where they could hnvo boon tampered with , n recount must bo refused. The developments have created considerable of a sensation in the city , Attaching Their I'ruporty.

CERTAIN CHARGES TO BE DISMISSED rinnl I'.vldcnto In the Case Krcctvcd from \Vnshliijfton The llnnk Wrecker De clares Ills Intention of rncltiR the Music Tomorrow Morning. As nearly ns can bo ascertained from intimate . . . . mate associates of both sides , and In the absence of positive assurances from the principal actors , who nro not disposed to bent nt all communicative , it Is nt lust practically certain that Charles W. Moshor , the wrecking president of the Cnpltnl Nntional bank , will stand up before a jury In the federal district court and plead guilty to several of the chargcs-in the Indictments against him , in consideration of certain others being dismissed , and will then re- col vo the sentence of the court. Mr. Moshcr haa breakfast with nn ox- state ofllclnl yesterday , nnd upon parting with him said : "Well , goodbye. I probably won't ' see you again for a good while , as I am going before fore the federal court tomorrow morning and plead guilty. " I'rusoimtor linker's Notion of It. It has been conceded by Prosecuting At torney Baker from the start that there were a uuMbor of charges that could not be sus tained : by positive proof , but that thcro wcro others from which there was no escape un j less the proposition to compromise was ac cepted. It was stated that the charges of frjudulontly diverting tlio money of the bnnit. : whllo undoubtedly based on actual fact , were somewhat short of positive fact , but that the falsification of the books nnd records of the bank , the Issuance of fraudulent certificates nnd the deception practiced to mislead the other ofllccrs of the bank , ns well as the bank ox- amincr and the comptroller , could bo readily proven. ' It is in the air around the federal building that It is to thosu latter charges that the plea of guilty is to bo made , nnd it 1.1 likewise rumored thnt , in consideration of this plea , the minimum sentence , five years in the penitentiary , will be imposed. No such arrangement has been definitely made , as the court docs not make deals of that kind , but if that Is the understanding between the prosecuting attorney and the defense , It is safe to say that it will bo pretty nearly carried out , as the recom mendation of-tho prosecution along this line would receive considerable attention. Attorney Baker and Mosher were in close consultation < for over an hour yesterday. Mr. Baker was asked nbout the sltuno tion , but said that there was llitlo information - tion to bo given out. Ho saia ho "hoped" the ' defense would conclude to enter n plea t'Ci guilty , as it would result la saving considerable time , as the cnso of the United States aguinst Moshor was ono from which there was no escape , nnd the defend ant would have to take his medicine. Ho had hoped , in the interest of the depositors of the bank , that the offer of a compromise would bo accepted , and he bad given the de fense every opportunity to bring about such a state of affairs , but it had been unsuccess ful , and ho should perform the duty devolv ing upon him as prosecuting attorney. lic had postponed the taking up of thu case ns long as possible without allowing it to go over the term , nnd ho felt that this wns extending as rnuch/fcourtesy to the other sldo as was proper for him to do. Ho Intil mntcd thut the case would bo taken up to morrow morning. When asked how long it would last ho replied that ho could not say. Hits no Chance to Cscapc. To a lawyer , who came in afterwards and asked what there was in court to bo dis posed of before ho could take up a civil case , the urbane prosecutor replied that ho could got ready to go ahead at once , as "very llttlo time would DO occupied in disposing of the remainder of the business of this oflico for this term , " which goes to confirm the rumor thut the Moshcr case will bo quickly dis posed of this morning. It is understood that evidence on the part of the prosecution , which has been lacking , has been secured from Washington , and that thcro is no loop hole through which the bank-wrecker can escape , oven If ho concludes at the last moment to light the case to the final ditch. It is stated that the federal statutes pro scribe the same minimum penalty , five years , for all of the crimes alleged against Mosher , and that ho cannot escape n sentence to the pen for thnt period except on the single charge of issuing fraudulent certificates of deposit , for whicn the penalty is n fine of $1,000. The prosecuting attorney was asked about n plan of that kind , and ho said that ho would not accept a plea like that alone. . Chicago Ueiich Hotel.

Yesterday morning about 8 o'clock people In the vicinity ol tlio city hall were startled by two shots being flrod in quick succession , and the city'omployes fairly tumbled over each other to reach the outsldo of the bulldlnir while tlio oxcltcmont was on. As they emerged from the Farnam strcoc entrance they espied a horse and a badly wrecked light wagon turning the Eighteenth street corner north. The policeman on this beat was standing coolly on ttio corner viewing the ileeing animal , with a smoking revolver in his hands. The horse bad started at Nineteenth street , and as ho came clo < rn Farnam the ofllcer discharged his firearm twlco in the hope of stopping him. Instead of having the di.Hired ollcot the report of the ofllcur's gun only frightened the animal moro and ho turned his uourso up Eighteenth street and fairly How through space , leaving romnauts of the wagon at every obstruction encoun tered. As the runaway disappeared from vlow the ofllccr pocketed his weapon , and ho appeared disappointed because his now method of stopping a ruimway horse was a failure. The oflluor said in explanation that ho sprang in front of the horse and shot in the air to divert the course of the runaway , after vainly endeavoring to stop him otherwise. The streets were crowded and ho did this to savn human lifo and destruction of vehicles. IMiiionlo tlruml I.nilgr.

Chauncoy M. Depow arrived from Now York today to visit the fair. In course of n conversation with a reporter , Mr , Dcpow wns asked what his road and other eastern roads proposed to do In regard to the question Of popular excur sion rates to the World's fair. Ho hail this tosny In reply : "Wo shall make an excursion rate that will bo satisfactory to everybody nnd , I be lieve , that all eastern railways wlldo \ the snmo when the proper time nrrlvos. Wo shall run weekly or soml-wcokly excursions tow Chicago which will not In anywise interfere with our rogulnr service. Up to this time ain attempt on the part of the railroads to run such excursion trains would have been al a loss and no railroad company will enter into nny business which docs not promise to make nn adequate return. Now that the exposition ; Is completed , Chicago can look forward to n tremendous Inpourlng of the poonlo from all parts of the country and she can feel assured that the railroad companies will do their duty to bring the people Here as quickly nnd as comfortably ns Is within , their power. ' Spenklng of the financial condition of the country , Mr Dopow said : ' 'It is largely n matter of sentiment , The people believe there is enough inonoy in the country to do business on there U enough ; but if , on thn other hand , they have an impression that thcro is not sufficient money they withdraw their savings from the banics , lose their In terest , which the banker gains , und the next daj' : , when they discover that the bank is safe nnd that the business world has not collapsed , they carry their savings back to the bank again. I believe that the financial stringency nnd scare is about ovor. Among the moneyed men in the east there Is n unanimous fooling und desire for a special session of congress , and that just as quickly as : possible. National relief is needed to re establish a fooling of security. As to the Sherman bill , there is a dcmnnd for its re peal , though the dcsiro for this repeal is a matter of sentiment , nnd not based on nuy apparent necessity nt least thnt is the way I look at it.
