FinneIl,s Death.

The inquest on the body Of William
Finnell was resumed at 10 O'clock.
Benjamin Cronin testified as fOliOwss
Live ON Chapel street; am a street car
conductor of the West Walnut Hills
line; was on the car at the time OF the
accident; f. f. Cassidy was the conduas
tor. The first thing that attracted my
attention to anything amiss was the sud-
den Jerking of the car and its stopping;
cassidy was in the middle OF the car.
and by the sudden stop was thrOw&
against the front door Of the car; the
horses were going at the rate of abOnt
five or six miles an hour.
George w. Muchmore, the driver, was
the next witness. He says that he drove
horses for fifteen years; no one was On
the platform with me at the time; ia
passing across Sixth street l noticed
two men stagger off the east side
of Broadway, about twenty TO
thirty feet above the upper
crossing. One was ahead of the other
as though trying to get him to come Oa
and get on the car. When within abOuk
ten feet of them, | hallooed to thsR'
but had commenced to check up
when 1 first saw them. Whea
called to them to look out tate
last time they both appeared as II they
jumped right in front OF the horses. "a
brakes were on just as l have them 1n
crossing streets. AS soon as the men
ran against the horses the animals made
sudden lunge forward, nearly pulling
me off the platform. II l had
the slightest idea that the men weyN- -S~
ing across the track / could hak tres
vented the accident. One Of tie men
was struck and knocked outside the
track, and the one nearest me wHS
struck by the collar of the east hDrs9
and knocked down. The men jumped
in front of the horses as quick as a fl .lsh
OF lightning, and right under the horses'
noses, when the accident occurred.

fluence of liquor. Finneli and

about fifteen minutes before the aeea-
dent. They were both half drunk.
Henry Slater, another saloon-keepRT,
testified that the deceased drank in hiS

MoNTENEGRo'S WILLINGNESS.

that Mostar be surrendered by the
Turks.
WHAT TURKEY IS READY TO DO.
LONDON, October 25.-The Times dis
clared her readiness to accept six
mended by all the Powers. 1t is reas-
surfing to hear from Constantlnopls that
hopes OF more peaceful turn In affairs
have considerably increased. This feel
Ing Is caused by the unexpectedly con-
ciliatory attitude OF Gen. lgnatietf.
There has mot been any trace hlth-
erto OF Russia's Offering provocation
with view Of bringing about a collision.
On the contrary, any such intention has
been distinctly and decidedly dis
claimed. While the affairs there look
better than In Constantinople, one can
trace all around Turkey the iron ring
prepared by Russia, which is closing and
tightening rapidly and firmly. The
lrieudly relations between Seryia and
Montenegro, which had become en-
broiled, have been restored. Prince
Nikita has promised Servia that he would
In no case accept an armtstice extending
beyond the present year.
