A Story OF Poison.

In speech in favor Of vivisection.
some weeks ago, Sir. Lyon Playfail
made n great hit by n story of two Ger
mans experimenting with poison he
would not name, which produced no i'm
mediate effect, but killed sometime after.
ward, if those who had taken it were not
made idiots by its use. OF the two who
took this poison, one died (said Mr..
Playfair), and the other is in an idiot
asylum. He argued that had they ex-
pcrimented upon rabbits they would
have saved their lives. 1t has, how.
ever, been since asserted that this
amentable occurrence was due to quite
another cause, having arisen out of
some experiments made with mercurie
methyde in DIR. Odling's laboratory.
The two men had just completed their
work, when they split flask containing
the poison on the table. Unwilling to
do the work over again, they preferred
to sop the stuff up with sponges, and
unwittiugly inhaled the poison, which
arose in n vapor. One died under its ill.,
influence almost Immediately. The
other, having spent days in warning his
fellow chemists of the dangers they
were exposed to in using it, grew grad
ually worse, and died a month after the
occurrence.

the man who wishes to use the machine
shall wear it into the building he wishes
to iniure. Removing his hat and plac.
ing it against wall, he will take Il

time remove the pin that allows the
clockwork to start. Then he will put
on soft hat, which he will take from
his pocket, and walk away"

cRoNEY's CASE POSTPONED.
Owing to the Absence of Witnesses tn
Date for Rearing Set for February 2 ]


Date for n hearing Set for February FL.
At the conclusion of the reading of the
grand jury's report this morning, William
A. Croney, brother of John w. Croney,
charged with the shooting of Daniel Ma
guire, came into court and presented coun-
sci for the prisoner with certificate to the
effect that Andrew j. Conner, an important
witness for the defense, was too III to attend
and might not be well enough for some
time.
The Chief Justice wanted to know how 1t
would do to postpone the case for two weeks,
at which time, Judge Houston remarked as
an aside, " we might have better weather"
Mr.. Gray thought it would be exceedingly
inconyenient to continue the case, although
there was an important witness for the
State also absent.
Judge Houston suggested postponement
until the May term, with which the Attor-
ney General acquiesced.
Mr.. Bird said he would rather try the case
In two weeks than wait until May. The
Chief Justice thought it would be to The adj
vantage ofthe prisoner to go on with the
case.
Mr., Gray reminded the court that the case
had been postponed at the last court at the
instance of the defendant, and now it
seemed imperative to again continue.
Mr.. Bird declared that both he and his
colleague, Colonel NDlteley, were very
much disappointed at not being able to go
on to-day. The prisoner wants trial as
soon as he can get it. He is certainly en-
titled to his trial. We are ready at any
moment when the witness-the most i'm
portant in the ease-is able to be present.
May to be sure, as some one had said, was
only three months, but It would be three
months of great anxiety to the prisoner
We would rather have trial than to run
further risks"
Mr. Gray remarked that the fact must
not be lost sight of that 1t was at the in
stance of the prisoner that the case had been
postponed before. The State must be en-
titled to some consideration, and the
prisoner could not fix the exact day on
which he would be tried. The court had
ouly to say to what time the case should be
postponed.
1t was finally decided to postpone the case
until February ~, at 10 o'clock a. M, to
which time the witnesses and the special
jury were dismissed.
The crowd, which occupied every avail
able scat and stood along the aisles, then
Withdrew, much disappointed at the turn
affairs had taken; while the prisoner was
conducted to the cells in the cellar.

Baltimore SUM-
RrDGELr, CAROLINE COUNTY, Nm, Feb.
6.-The Beaehanp case seems to become
more mysterious with each fresh develop
ment. Affairs took a new and startling
turn to-day. Nathan s. Chance, alias
Thornton, was arrested and committed to
jail by Magistrate Lockerman on the charge
ofconspiring with others 10 poison Beachamp.
The accusation was made under oath by
VIM. w. Booker. His information came
from Chances father, to whom the
son Is said to have made confess
sion. 1t is alleged that Chance told his
father that certain person (supposed
TO be James Ahearn, the village storekeeper
at Concord wanted him to poison certain
"thing'' by the last day of the year, and
that II he would do so he would receive $40
in money and gold watch. The action of
the State in making the arrest has created
sensation. Interest In the case Is increas-
ing, and additional revelations are expected.
The friends of Mrs. Beachamp say that the
letter which Is said to have been accidentally
found at the dead mans house is genuine,
and can be 30 proved. On the other hand,
however, there are many persons who
say that the latter Is q forgery-an after
thought of interested persons who were be-
ing cornered by the State, and who adopted
this method of further protection against
the law. 1t is said that the object Of put-
ting the letter in the possession Of Farmer
Manship was to give II an air Of truth, az
Mr.. Manship's standing is very high. 1t Ii
alleged that deep and desperate game Il
being played. States Attorney Bryant
says he intends to push the investigation
/ until the innocence of the suspected personI
