THE CRAMER TRIAL.
Damaging Admission by the De-
tense.

Damaging Admission by the De-
fehse.
New HAVEN, Sept. 2i.-The most sig
nifcant occurrence in the examination
Of James and Walter Malley on the
charge of numbering Jennie Cramer
was the admission by their counsel that
certain letters produced by the State,
Ostensibly written by Blanche Douglass
to Jennie Cramer and Mrs. Cramer, were
written by Walter Malley and another
admission that Walter and James Msllev
had known for some time previous to
Blance DOuglass's introduction to Jennie
Cramer, that the former was living in
disOrderly house in New York, and that
letters had been writer to her by Wal
ter Malley while she was there. The
lawyers for the prosecution claimed that
testimony on these points was intro
duced to show that Blanche Douglass
was brought here for purpose. John
Manning, who had been employed for
seven years at Malley's, identified the
handwriting in the letters as Walters.
DR.. Painter, of the cOrOner's jury, re-
called that James Malley testified before
the jury that after seeing Malley and
Blanche start on ride Friday evening,
August 9Th, he went home and did not
leave the house again until the next
morning. Ex-JurOr Peck testified that
Walter Malley testified to starting for
New York to look for Jennie Cramer
and bring her back after he heard she
had left her home, being afraid that her
brother, to whom he thought she was
going, would blame him. Then Will
liam E. Hunter and wife, and Jennie
Kendrick, the latter of Auburn, New
York, testified to seeing Jennie with a
party on the flying horses that Friday
night. The prosecution will close to-
morrow. Blanche Douglass will not
probably testify

His Honor, Tuesday morning, and they

THREE EGGS

Which Cost William Hudson $3.50 Apiece.
William Hudson, the man arrested for
the theft of three eggs, had hearing
before Squire Bond, Tuesday morning.
Hudson did not deny having taken the
eggs and sucked them, which was equiv
alent to pleading guilty. The Squire
then applied his pencil vigorously to a
sheet of paper and said, "Mr. Hudson,
$3.50 for three eggs is pretty high, but
as it seems that you had to have them,
the price remains unaltered, produce
the shekels," and William produced. As
he slowly departed from the temple of
justice, he reflected upon the good
things $3.50 would buy and how he had
sucked eggs, charged at the rate of $18
per dozen.
