here was accompanied with a violent storm,
ard large hail fell for several minutes, some
Of it being two thirds as large as an egg.
The bulk of the bail that fell was equally as
large as candy-drops for want Of bet
Ter comparison. A team OF MIR. James L..

one OF the horses becoming frightened ran
of, aud in some manner Killed himself.

The Trial Of Chastain Cox.

New YORK, July lin the Cox muir
der-trial the prosecution closed last night:
and the defence will probably finish to-day
with the testimony Of medical experts to
show that Mrs. Hull died during the post
mortena examination, and not by the hands
of the prisoner. DR.. Vanderweyde, in re-
ply TO hypothetical question, said that a
woman found as Mrs. Hull was found might
not be dead, even though cold and rigid,
and that If dead it would be impossible to
deter mine the direct cause OF death.
