The Gordon Murder Trial.
SIXTH DAYS PROCEEDINGS.
Testimony of tho Prisoner.
He Does Not Deny Commit ing the
Murder!
BELFAST, 10.

BELFAST, 10.
In opening for the defence, Mr.. Wallace,
the prisoners counsel, cautioned the jury
against giving too much importance to the
statements of his client before the Coroner's
Inquest, as they we're made in . state Of ex-
citement, and insisted that the position of the
Government must be 80 strong in order to
satisfy them of guilt a. to absolutely exclude
every other hypothesis.
The first witness called this morning testi-
fed to the peacable character of the accused
and to the friendly relations maintained With
the brothers up to the day before the tragedy.
The blood on the prisoners CT Ching was
was accounted for by his throwing himself
on the grass where the bodies we're laid.
Mrs. Lucella Gordon, aged 6s. mother Of
the prisoner, tegtiAed that the brothers lived
together upon terms Of friendship, that they
worked in company the Saturday before the
murder, and that John T. manifested no dis
pleasure when the farm vas conveyed to AL
mon. Her examination elected nothing i'm
portant.
AFTERNOON.
The evidence in the trial was closed this
oner, Who occupied the stand for over two
hours. He svore that amicable relations al
ways existed between his brothers. family
and himself That the statements of his
threats we're false. That he cheerfully ac-
quiesced in his fathers arrangements in sub
shutting Almon for himself and in fact was
ignorant of the conveyance Of the farm until
after the murder. Although he suspected
that his brothers wife wrote the anonymous
letters to Miss Edwards and was somewhat
vexed with their author, whoever it might be,
still no word, or trouble with her were ever
had. Having arranged to leave next day for
Massachusetts, where he expected to work,
he retired early in the evening before the
murder, and was first awakened by Anna, hi.
niece. After getting her and the little boy
out, without psrceiving any one near. he at
tempted to rescue his brother, but was driven
back by the smoke. He then gave an alarm
and vas met by Ward. the hired man, and a
neighbor, Who assisted in clearing the house.
He saw no axe and vas excited. Knows
what afterwards transpired. The prisoner
acknowledged the falsehood of his statement
to Sheriff Norton and others that one Green
vas the guilty person. Said that he made it
to arrest suspicion from himself and attract
sympathy. He disclamed the letter found in
the Jail.
This testimony, although given with re-
markable self pos session, was in many par
ticulars irrevelant and immaterial, as he didn't
deny committing the murder.
The Attorney General declined cross-ex-
aiming Kim. The arguments on both sides
will be made on Monday.

The principal losers Of the buildings are j.
p. Gilman, two brick blocks and one wooden,
s. F. Prescott 4 large brick block, J. B.
Nichols brick block, George Green large
wooden block. 1t is estimated the salvage on

moved and only injured by water and expo
sure, will amount to so per cent Of the value.
The bodies of Amos George, shoe manu-
facturer, and Amos c. Heath, an exployee of

Giman's block, and it was supposed that a
third person was still in the ruins. OF the

injured, but no fatal results are anticipated.
Assistance was sought from this city and the
steamer Washington was sent. making the
distance of nine miles, with two inches of
snow on the ground, in the remarkable time
of one hour. The origin of the fire is un-
known, but the explosion of a cask of cement
in the building where the fire was discovered

bins, and that he had been employed as a

WASHINGTON.

Washington, 10. No new features in the
Cuban question to-day.
Concerning the reported interview between
the Captain General of Cuba and John W.
Young, now in Jail at Chicago awaiting trial
for forging post Office money orders, it is
known here in official qaarters that instead of
the Captain General proposing to Young to
act as decoy in bringing the expedition to
Cuba for the purpose of being captured, snch
proposition vas made by Young himself to
the Captain General. He went to Havana
for that puapose, after having gained the con-
fdence Of the Cuban Junta in N. Y. The
Captain General having no confidence in him
gave him certain time in which to leave the
island, of which he apparently promptly
svailed himself. Young was one of the
shrewdest operators during the war with
bounty jumping frauds. He also committed
great forReries on paymasters and other Off
GERS of the army.
