filled with spectators. When Court adj
journed on Friday last the prosecution
had just closed their preliminary argu-
ment upon the pertinency Of the question
as to whether or not witness Augen Brady
had any knowledge Of Prices drafts.
This is regarded as an important point by
both, for if the question is admitted it
will probably lead to the admission OF tes-
timony by Price in support Of the Gov
eminent charge.
The Court, in answer to a question from
Merrick, said it would allow the Govern
ment an opportunity to reply to the argu-
ments OF the defense.
Turning toward the Court Gen. Brady
said: Positively, your Honor. l would
prefer to answer that question, and all
other similar questions. My lawyers and
myself do not seem to have taken the
same ground at ALL"
Merrick was of the opinion that he
might answer without reference to his
lawyers.
The Court, however, said it would hear
his lawyers instead of him.
Ingersoll-Of course, your Honor, this
is not a question of privilege, but OF rele-
vancy, and my client is interested.
Wilson-If the matter were gone into
now he should feel it incumbent upon him
to try it now, and try it to the bottom,
but it was not proper to bring another
case into this, when it could not be tried
and q verdict had before the jury. He did
not propose spending the remainder Of his
law, IN thn Tn,rtrnny, tryi-D nthar ,ant
tiers that might be brought into the case.
One case at a time was the proper method.
The Court-lt has not been brought into
this case.
Davidge then began his argument with
the statement of offer.
The Court interrupted, and inquired if
Merrick's offer was to show only that this
draft had been placed upon the witness
desk.
M~errick-No, your Honor, placed upon
his desk and given to him for u corrupt
purpose.

enmity of Daniel Gallagher while the lat
ter was protecting an aged man from the
attack Of a young hoodlum. Mannion
and Gallagher agreed to settle the trouble
in the prize ring, and the pugilists re-
paired to the field. The Marquis OF
Queensbury rules governed. The first
blood was claimed for Gallagher, who
planted a singing Highlander under
| Nav IN 1afk orn 1aouinn n rlortl- ~,
aud rolling him into his corner. Gal
lagher knocked Mannion off his feet in
every round. In the fifth round Gallagher
struck his opponent on the nose, splitting
that organ in q shocking manner When
time vas called for the sixth round Man
MON failed TO respond, and Gallagher was
awarded the honor of the fight. William
Mannion, seeing his brother beaten and
severely punished, and thinking Gallagher
too much exhausted to again fight, chal.
lenged him to immediate battle. Gal.
lagher, though much exhausted, accepted
the challenge, and invited him to step into
the ring. Mannion No. 2 was sent to
grass with his brother in several rounds,
III which he was badly used up. Patrick
Nolan, the man who seconded the Man.
Mons, then challenged Gallagher. The
latter consented to fight him, but, after
Nolan had undressed, he wisely concluded
to withdraw, and donned his clothes.
A Peculiar Incident.
TA~YLoRsvILLE, March 19.-There il
much talk here concerning a peculiar in.
cident which occurred on Friday night in
connection with Miss Emma Bond, the
victim Of last Summers outrage. Since
her appearance before the Grand Jury she
has been staying at the house Of her uncle,
Abner Bond. on the outskirts of the city
On the evening named, while the family
were at supper, Eta, a sister Of Emma,
came out of the girls bedroom, saying il
WAS not necessary to send anyone in to
stay with her while the family were eating,
that Emma was sitting propped up in bed
comfortable. But after a few minutes
Mrs. Bond sent her little girl into the
room. The girl came running back say.
ing. "Oh, mamma, the room is dark and
Emma is gone" Mrs. Bond screamed,
and the family ran to the room to find the
bed empty. They searched the house and
yard, and found the afflicted girl outside
around an angle Of the house, lying on the
ground partially unconscious. They car.
| ried her back to her room, and while doing
so heard her rave Of men with black masks
on their faces. She has been in a semi.
| unconscious condition ever since. Among
| the supposi.ions is that of abduction; some
| even hint at darker deeds. The accepted
theory is that in a fit Of temporary abera
| ton OF the mind she wandered from her
room to the yard. where her strength failed
her, and she sank TO the ground, still.
laboring under the h~allucination, prob
ably, OF former hideous scenes. To con.
| tradict this is the fact that since her ap.
pearance before the Grand Jury last No
vember she has never walked q step.
