The first witness introduced by the de-
Tense was DR.. B. T. Sheftall, Coroner, who
had made a thorough examination of the
wound that killed Sallie Moore. He was
convinced that the pistol was very close to
the head when firedj did not think it could
have been more than three or four inches
from the temple, Judging from the appear
ance of the wound. The nearer the shot is
fired the more lacerated is the opening of
the wound; evidence that this shot was fred
at close range. Gunshot wounds remarked
the witness, are very curious, and he was
reluctant to say that similar wound might
not have been inflicted at distance OF a
foot or more.
r. II. Burke, colored, testified as to
having obtained, on the afternoon OF the
29th OF July, an order for the discharge
from jail of Sallie Moore, who had been
committed by q Magistrate ON the charge of
breach of good behavior, at the instance of
Tom Golden. Saw Golden on Bull and
BRYAN streets, and told him he intended
going out to the jail and getting the woman
as soon as be got through some other bust
ness. Golden said that he couldn't see the
Solicitor, but would pay the Magistrates
costs If she was discharged and would leave
him alone. Started to the jail, and at
the corner of Whitaker street and Taylor
met Golden and Mr.. Waring Russell talking,
and walked out to the jail with them.
Golden made no further reference to the
Sallie Moore case. On arriving at the jail,
presented the discharge and Sallie Moore
was delivered up. Mr.. Russell said: "Sallie,
you had better go home and not get In any
more trouble" Witness had nothing further
to do with her. As they were coming out
of the jail, Sallie asked II he could get her a
hack. He replied no, but that they might
catch q car on Habersham street. He start
ed off, passing through the Park extension
Golden and the woman being behind him;
saw Sallie trying to take something out of
her stocking; kept some distance ahead Of
the parties. The railroad switch is on Hab-
ersham street, near Hall street. When wit
ness was at the corner of Lincoln, saw the

Air Line Railroad Lease.


 A dispatch from New York says 8 meeting of the stockholders of the Boston and New York Air Line, to vote on the lease of the property to the New York, New Haven and Hartford company, will be called Saturday. It is said that holders of common stock will vote against the lease, as no provision is made for their interests. Some of the holders of preferred stock are said to think per cent. not enough, and will therefore oppose the scheme. There are 300, ,OOO shares of pre- ferred and 10. 900 shares of common stock. A two-tbirds vote of the stockholders is ne- cessary to carry out the plan. Insiders say that the lease is sure to be ratified, as it is fa yored by great majority of the preferred stockholders. Vice President Reed had no knowledge of such nesting and fancied if such meeting were held the holders of con- mon stock might not favor the lease.
