The Malley Trial.
ReOpening To-day-The Work in Hand

ReOpening To-day-The Work in Hand
 For This Week.
 The Malley-Douglass trial will be resumed this morning at 10 o'clock. From Mir. Doo- ittle's announcement just before adjourn ment last Friday it is expected that the State will rest their case about the time of the regular forenoon recess. Immediately after ward counsel for the Malleys will open for the defence. They will, it is understood commence with Thursday m -rning, August 4, at which time Jennie Cramer and Blanche Douglass were seen leaving Edward Malley' g residence by Lieut.. Richard Wait, who will probably be the first witness called. He will testify to the apparent good spirits of the girls, one of whom he saw wave her hand to some one standing in the doorway. The testimony to follow will bsar principally upon the whereabouts of both James and Walter as we'll as Blanche up to the hour of finding the body of Jennie Cramer in order to establish their alibi. Counsel for the accused were very busy yesterday preparing their case for today, while Constables Keefe and Leete were out subpenaing witnesses. It was ru- mored yesterday that one of the jurymen had publicly expressed the belief or opinion that the Malley boys will never be convicted The trial will, it is expected last three or four weeks more.
 Exchanges are figuring up the cost of the trial as follows: The total cost of the Malley trial to the State is estimated to be about BIO, 900 for witnesses, jurors, extra court at tendants, experts, &c. This does notinclude the judge State attorney, clerks and sheriff, who receive nothing for extra services The defense has seven lawyers (two of whom are paid by the State), leaving the other five, say 1925 8 day each, or $125 per day, amounting to $2,500 for the 20 days, beside their retainers and hotel bills. The actual outlay on each side in court will be fully $1O,000, or. $20,O00 in all, to say nothing of the newspaper expenses for re- porters, messengers, telegraphing, etc, which u ill average $2OO day, there being nine teen reporters for the various papers at the trial The general expense could be carried to any length, by estimating the loss of time, which is loss of money, of the spectators who are in constant attendance Then there are the prisoners meals, conveyance to jail and court, and innumerable incidental expenses
 Chased by His S~tanIc Majesty.
 Quite crowd was attracted Sunday after noon by the sight of man who sat as if drunk, muttering to himself on the stone coping aG the upper BroadWay corner or the Park church lot. In response to inquiries and advice to "move on," he declared that he was chained to the spot by the devil, and he could not get away unless Father Shahan would interpose. Discovering his Catholic proclivities, 5ystander remarked that his satanic majesty doubtless punishing him for sitting so near Protestant church.

He proved to be crazy, and lives at the falls --N0r11ich Bulletin.

WHAT MR. MANNING PROPOSES TO DO.


WHAT MR.. MANNING PROPOSES TO DO.
1t seems that acting upon the advice OF some of
his friends Representative Manning,o of Mississippi,
had about made up his mind not to accept the
certificate Of election from the second district OF
that state. In fact Mr. Manning had determined
to contest Chalmers election before the error in
the Tate county returns was discovered, AMI be-
fore the certificate was issued to him. He had left
home for Washington with the purpose OF con-
testing on the ground Of interference in the elec-
ton by United States marshals and supervisors,
and that they prevented people from voting.
After the certificate was issued to Manning his
friends Informed him that they would rather see
him make his fight on the original grounds, ard
not tike any advantage OF the Tate county error
This met Manning's approval, but new question
has arisen. It Is held by Mississippi lawyers that
II Manning refuses the certificate OF election that
act Will be equivalent to resignation of the place.
aud that it would be the duty OF the governor to
regard the Congressional office OF the second dis
trtct as vacant and to order a new election; that
the governor can only offer the certificate to the
