Observation-Disclosures Bliss began
his concluding remarks to the jury
he made a particularly bitter at
tack upon Brady, and then turned
upon the other defendants. This
prosecution. said Bliss, was intended
to protect the treasury. Such trials
must take place and the eyes of the
country were upon the trial to as
certain if a jury could be found in
the district capable of understand
ing a case of this magnitude. AS
Bliss took his seat, Merrick said the
government had closed its opening.
Wilson immediately inquired of
the court whether government
would claim two arguments IN clos
ng. Merrick replied yes, and to
show the sentiments of the attorney
general, Merrick read letter from
Brewster, wherein he (Merrick) is
directed to ask the court to allow
government two closing arguments;
for it was his conviction they are
entitled to it in this, of all cases.
If the court declines to allow the
motion, then the attorney general is
necessarily excluded. Wilson de-
clsred he would refuse to argue in
case government were allowed two
closing arguments. Ingersoll made
a vigorous protest against the mo-
ton to allow two arguments.
The Court said it had seen no
thing TO satisfy it that there was
any reason to justify a departure
from the established practice in
such matters 1t was universal.
in jury cases to allow but one reply
to government, and that order
would be preserved in this case.
Ingersoll explained that perhaps
the defence could arrange to make
place for the attorney general.
They did not want TO deprive gov
eminent Of the services Of its high
est officers.
Merrick said he should refuse to
enter into any arrangement with
the defense, as they had formally
rejected his proposition.
THAT'S what we want" retOrted
Ingersoll, ito make them respon-
sible for keeping out the attorney
general"
at the request Of the defence the
court adjourned.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 19.-Seattle dis
patch: The explosion occurred while the
passengers were at dinner. The crown
went up through the forward cabin and the
pilot house, carrying johnson, the man at
the wheel, high up into the sir, causing
his instant death. Capt. Bailey was on
deck and was lost. Neither he nor his
mate were seen after the explosion. The
steward and his helper David Sparks,
were instantly killed while wait
ing on the table. Kavanagh, the
fireman, was not seen afterwards and is
undoubtedly killed. G. C. Tobelar, rep
resenting Bates, Reed 81 Co., of New York,
was killed. Sam Babbett, stranger, also
killed. Those injured were Dennis Law
ler, engineer, badly bruised about the
head; Miss Estelle Bradish. of Tokonio,
thigh broken; Hannah Price, of Skogid, an
old lady, ankle jammed and otherwise hurt;
81. G. Kelly, of Skogid, leg broken; one or

the other floating. Indians and loggers

LATEST FROM MILWAUKEE.

MILWAUKEE, Jan. 18.-Two bodies and
several small pieces of remains were recov-
cred from the ruins this forenoon, making
forty five in all. OF these, four were iden-
titled since the search began, which, with
nineteen originally at the morgue, make
twenty-three identified dead, and sixty
four dead in all. The search will be fin
ished tomorrow. Sheriff Bently. who ac-
companied Scheller, returned from Madison
this morning, refusing information of any
kind. The reasons are very strong of
Scheller being in danger in the county jail.
The district attorney stated to press agent
that Scheller's preliminary sexamination
will not be had until after the inquest is
finished, which will take fully week In
absence of the statement promised by Land
lord Antisdel to the press, ii is positively
impossible to figure at the number of bod
les yet in the ruins, but it is supposed 10
be from twelve to fifteen, which would
make the total number of victims seventy
five to eighty.

is rubbed on the head until the liquid
,vaporates. No subsequent rinsing is
necessary. A distinguished physician,
who had spent much time at quaran-
tine, said that a person whose head was
thoroughly washed every day rarely
took contagious diseases; but where the
hair was allowed to become dirty and
matted, it was hardly possible to escape
infection. Many persons find speedy
relief for nervous headache by washing
the hair thoroughly in weak soda water.
| have known cases almost wholly cured
in ten minutes by this simple remedy.
A friend finds il the greatest relief in
ease of "rare cold, the cold symptoms
entirely leaving the eyes and nose after
one thorough washing OF the hair. The
hair should be thoroughly dried after
ward, and not exposed to draughts Of
air for little while.

when the parents of the young lady
threatened him with prosecution unless
he married the girl he said:
"The Pennsylvania Railr0a Il is at m,

ncStlay his case came up for trial. II
was shown that he had purchased medi.
cine for the purpose Of producing abor.
ton, but she would not take it. He at.
tempted to break down her character at
the trial, but failed utterly. Then he
offered to marry her in the court room,
bat she refused. He pleaded guilty,
and the court sentenced him to tive
years and six months in the peniten-
tiary.
