Doth the veil and tin cloak were much more Rolled when he fount them than when they were presented It court. He found marks on the side ot thi " "building and above the roof at the soutl elde ot the Mcllugh building , and had workei on a theory that the body might have beer put Into the. building from that window.

The state objected Judge Scoit straightened un and with som dignity said that It Mostyn uad a revolver o 'Ills dusk while lie was talking to I'ayne th court wontqd tQi linow It , Captain Mosty then answered ; that ho had no revolver on hi desk , but the. Impression which Mr. Tuttl was seeking to. , convey , of Influence and pressure sure , Mvlngi been brought to bear upo Payne , to secure his confession , was conveye just the same. Then Mr. Tuttle went o and naked a great many questions tending t fchow that Payuij's confession was the rcsu of BweaJ bo * tpressurc. While Captain Moi tyn answered no emphatically to all sue questions , | | IQ , picture ot an Inquisition wa vividly shown to the jury. Another point iwas score < l by > Ir. , Tuttl in. the matter of confessions. The court sin tamed an. objection to a question asked b Mr. Kaley as tp what Payne had said aboi his confession. The court held that tli written and signed confessions were the bci evidence , and that oral testimony on tr same point would not be received. The cm fesslqn , or signed statement , was offered I evidence. < The defendants objected to U admission pf the. statement on the groun that | t was not full and complete , was m In the language , or handwrlttlng ot U prisoner. After some argument the \\rlttc itatemcnt was admitted In evidence.

WASHIN'OTON , Nov. 23. An erroneous ImpresMon has gone out that tlia clerk of the house of representatives has prepared an oill- clal list of members of the I'lfly-fourtli con gress. This he has not done and would not be olilo to do If so disposed , for the reason that the official returns have so far been re ceived from only two districts of the 356 , those being the two Oregon districts. It Is not expected that certificates of election will In any large number be placed with the clerk before the convening of the short term and many will not ba on file until after that time. Uut It Ilia certlOcatea'-Miould be filed repre senting all the districts ot the entire country the clerk would not in this Instance probably be disposed to Issue an ofllcl.il roll call of the next congress before the expiration of the present. An oindal In the tlfrk's offlca today expressed the opinion that the completion of this list would be delayed until the 4th ot March as a matter of precaution and he gave as a reason for thU caution the possibility ot error or of complications similar to those presented In the pending contest ot llelKnap against Klchardson ( or the seat from the Fifth Michigan district. In this Instance Mr. Rlchardsnn , who was voted for as a democratic candidate for the Fifty-third congress , presented his credentials to the clerk on the ! j2d of December , 1892 , and his name was duly enrolled as a member of the house. On the 20th ot February fol lowing Mr. Delltn.ip presented credentials signed as had been Mr. , Richardson's by the state officers , certifying that llelknap had been elected. Havlnji recognised the Rlch.inUon certificate the clerk was power less to undo the act , it lie hod been so In clined , and as the house ha DO far declined to reverse his action , Mr. Richardson stll remains the sitting member , Indeed , the cir cumstances proved to be Kuch that Mr. Bel- knap was unable , without the adoption ot a special resolution , lo Inaugurate contest pro ceedings. Such n resolution was adopted , nnd the merits of the two sets of credentials will constitute ono of .the ! contesting ques tions which the house will be called upon to dispose of at the forthcoming session. It should be explained that there was a change of administration In Michigan between the time the Richardson certificate was Issued and that when the Uelknap/ / certificate was Issued , republican staid 'jnlDclals succeeding democratic state olllclals , , Richardson receiv ing his certificate from tlp ( .democrats and Delknap from the repubtlpans. A new can- vacs had been made undqr , the order ot the supreme court of the state , and It was upon the results ascertained that the Delknap certificate was Issued. The simple action o the clerk has been lnore , potent , however , than the whole machinery , tpolltlcal and ex ecutlve , of the state ot lllqlilgan In decid ing the merits of the contest. . The case.Is so fresh In Uie minds ot the house officials that they are disposed to act with caution and not to prepare the official roll until It becomes necessary to enter the names of the now members for the purpose of paying their salaries , , wjileji will begin on the 4th day _ of March. The list which has now been prepared h , therefore , entire ! * ' un official , the names being gathered from nil authentic sources , and Is only for the con venience ot members.

Commissioner Shields has rendered a decision In the caee of Leo Yuen which will have a far-reaching effect on Chinamen In this counfry. He held Le Yuon for deportation On the ground that he was a Chinese laborer previous tc Id his departure for China and stnco his re turn to this city. Lee Yuen lived In thle city for a number of years. He went tc China about tw6 years ago and returned last January by way of Canada , The law permits Chinese merchants to return to this country but excludes laborers. Leo Yuen's lawyer ! made a strong effort to show that Yuen wai a partner In a house tn Mott street. The commissioner's order Of Deportation Is base. : upon a decision rendered last month b ] Judge Coxo , defining a merchant as one en gaged In the business of buying and selllnf and who does not ctigage In any other kind 01 id work. Agent Scharff says ha , will now or lent 300 other Chinamen whose situations an like that ot Leo Yuen. ho Death Sentence for Wife Murder. ST. PAUL. Nov. 23. A Maudlin. N.
