rha a.unn M,nrdar Trial.

The closing argument for the State in the
Glvnl murder trial at Bangor, was maze
Thurday, morning by Attorney General ii. b.
Cleaves, closing at noon. He claimed that the
evidence in the case disclosed one of the most
brutal, atrocious aud deliberate crimes OF MUIR
der that has been perpetrated in this state Tor
years; that the acts of preparation for commit
ting the deed, the concealment OF the body and
the contradictory statements OF the accused IN
seeking to divert suspicion from herself, were
all indications of sanity and guilty purpose
The Attorney General reviewed the testimony
in the case most thoroughly and combated in
the most emhhatc manner the theories adj
yanced by the defence He declared that If
the principles commended for in behalf OF the
accused are to prevail we might as well sweep
from existence our courts of justice, expel the
jury from the jury box, and abandon all at
tempts to enforce the criminal laws of the
State that II insanity exists in this case 1t ex-
lists in every case of brutal murder, and the
only thing necessary to be done hereafter IN
order to escape punishment will be for the &C
cused to go before jury and declare that at
the moment Of inticting the fatal blow he or
she was acting under an insane delusion. He
discussed the distinction between moral and
legal insanity, claiming that there was no es-
cape from verdict of guilty. and urgi g upon
the Jury the importance of the case The neces-
sity of doing their duty fearlessly, without
favor and in accordance with the oaths they
had taken. The argument of the Attorney
General was able, eloquent and forciole.
Judge Peters delivered most able and i'm
partial charge at the coming in of the court in
the afternoon, occupying nearly two hours. He
defined the law upon the question of insanity
as established by the courts of this state, and
instructed the jury upon other principles OF
law applicable to the case.
At6 o'clock the jury returned verdict
against the prisoner-guilty of murder in the
first degree.
The trial has attracted considerable attention
and he court room has been crowded during
greater portion of the time. The defence was
ably conducted by P. G. White, Esq, assisted
by Mr. Merrill

Frederick Broughton, General Manager of
the Great Western Railroad, has rendered his
resignation to the management of the fused
Grand Trunk and Great Western Rosos. Gene
raj Manager Hickson of the Grand Trunk
Railway states that Charles Stiff, Who was AS
sistant General Manager ana General super

tanned in the position of Superintendent of the
Western system. C. X. Domville, the Loco

Agent, will also continue in their positions.
The Boston Transcript says: There was
nothing doing in Eastern Thursday, at the first
board AZ being the bidding price. 1t is in
timated that the negotiations between the
Eastern and the Boston & Maine may be re-
newed shortly. The sticking place is the diff
ference of opinion as TO the dividends to be
guaranteed on the two stocks. Naturally
Boston & Maine does not like to come down
from its present dividend rate too far, and
equally naturally the Eastern stockholders
stand out for the best terms possible under the
circumstances, and having a very good proper
ty to handle are not disposed to come into
any arrangement which does not give them
what is due from the value of their property,
present and prospective.

Winchester District.

From Ward Priest, one of Tombstone: oldest residents, who returned from the Winchester district on Monday last, the following particulars have been gleaned
 Messrs. Hearst and Solomon, who pur- chased the group of five mines, being those first discovered and located on the main ledge, have built comfortable quar-. ters for their. workmen, and have gone to work in earnest to develop the property They are working Tn several places, all of which show rich chloride and horn silver ore. MT. Priest thinks the prospects for a rich camp exceedingly good He saw several Tombstone men there, among whom we call to mind, Cap Taylor superintendent of the Vizina mine, c. L. Upshur, B. A. Packard W. T, Lowry and Mir. Egan. It IS to be hoped that these mines will prove all that those who have seen them think they will Such develop ment will add new luster to our already world famous county. ...

Shot In Resisting Arrest.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Feb. 20.-This evening, on Jefferson street between 9th and Eth, Joe Wyatt, ex-govern- ment marshal, who has bagged more moonshiners than any man in the county, was badly, no doubt fatally, wounded by Joe Cunningham and Thos Connolly two deputies of the court. During the affair IA shots were fired. The difficulty commenced in the Astor house and ended in the street, where Wyatt was shot. The origin of the difficulty was witnessed by none but the participants. War rants were out for the arrest of Wy att, charging him with selling liquor to minors. He swore he would pay no attention to the warrants and no officer could arrest him. The officers attempted to arrest him, when he pulled a revolver. The officers did the same, and the battle began. Neither of the marshals was hurt.
