family. There were several matters to discuss
such as the appointment Of treasurer to take
charge OF the funds contributed to support the
family, as his pay had even been denied him by
the military Ourt-martial. Sergeant O'Keefe, 2d
artillery, who had been promoted to fill Sergeant
MasOn's place, was present and stated that he

Having seen statement that one DR.. Hariot had
authorized Col. Holloway to state that he saw
letter from Gen. ROsecrans to his brother, Bishop
ROeecrans, in the hands of Father Edlin, in which
he stated that the war was fratricidal and could

Another Murder Trial Begun.


The case OF James B. Christmas, indicted for the
murder OF William G. Whitney on the 25th OF June
last was called in the Criminal Court. Judge
Wylie, this morning. MeSsrs. w. A. Cook, I. c.
Case and j. j. YeateS appeared for the defendant
and announced their readiness to proceed. The
government represented by District Attorney
COrkhill and Assistant District Attorney Taggart,
being also ready. the selection OF jury WAS pro-
ceeded with Within few minutes twelve
JURORS WERE SELECTED AS FOLLOWS:
W. T. Wood, John B. Dawson, John w. Hayes,
Matthew McNalley, George f. Kirk, Henry Adler,
J. B. Mccarthy, John T. Finney, Edwin J. McLain,
W. X. Brown, William Holmead and Frank T..
Wright. Several of the jurors, when asked If they
had formed or expressed an opinion, answered
that they had read or the case, but could not say
that they had formed an opinion. Judge Wylie
JocoSely remarked that such statements show
what little impression the newspapers make. One
no wonder that men forget what they read, whe N
we consider the amount OF matter published; !;
newspapers and encyclopedias"
MR.. TAGGART OPENED THE CASE
to the jury, stating the law as he under
stood it. He recounted that the government
would show that the occurrence took place at the
house OF Mrs. Narrower, No 1886 street, about 5
O'Clock on the 25th OF June, and that there had
been some feeling between the parties, who were
brotherS-in-law.
TESTIMONY FOR THE PROSECUTION.
The first witness was Mr.. B. ID. Hyam, who tes-
titled that with his family he was in the dining
room at the time; that hearing the report of a
pistol he went out OF the dining-room and near
the foot OF the stairs saw the deceased lying on
his back. In few minutes Col. Christmas came
from some point, and standing near the head OF
the body said: Gentlemen, did it; 1 did 1t In
self-defence."
J. j. Hayden testified that he heard the shot, and
going down stairs found Mr.. Whitney, with his
loot on the step. Witness asked who had done
this, when Mr.. ChiStmaS appeared, and spoke OF
sending for doctor, and one was sent for; don't
know whether Mr.. Christmas sent for an officer.
The officer came in about twenty or thirty min
uteS afterwards.
Mrs Narrower was called, and the court asked
II there was any necessity for Mrs. narrower to
give her testimony, for had not the killing been
proved?
Mr.. Cook.-It is admitted; there is no dispute
about that
Mrs. Narrower was excused.
Lieutenant Arnold testified that Col Christmas
was brought into the ith precinct station, under
arrest, by Officer Mc(ilue. He Nitut Arnold then
went to the house, and saw the body searched, but
no weapon was found.
With the exception OF DR.. Hartigan, this closed
the case for the government.
