PAINFUL AocIDENT.-Henry Murphy.
son of John NJ Murphy of the Washing
ton Standard, met with a severe and
painful accident this afternoon, which
IN all probability will necessitate the
amputation of the first two toes of his
right foot. 1t appears that the unfortu-
nate man was At work at the time upon
the large cylinder press of that estab
liskment, and in some manner had his
foot caught in the machinery. Before
the press could be stopped his foot vas
severely crushed, causing him excru-
ciating pain. DIR. Riley was called in
and dressed the wounded member, at
the same time putting the sufferer at as
much ease as possible. The doctor sx
presses the opinion that two of the toes
are SO badly mutilated that it will be inn
possible to save them. An amputatiou
will therefore be imperative. Henry il
deservedly popular with the craft of
this city. and much sympathy Is ex-
pressed for him in this unfortunate mis-
hap.-OtyHpiG Courier.

POPULAR FEELING AGAINST A PRISONER.
ExCIT EMENT ATTENDING THE TRIAL OF MENKEN
FOR MURDER.
10y TELEGRAPH TO the rRIBUSsl


BINGHAMTON, Dec. 4.-The Menken trial
here is interesting and tragic The public mind is strongly
against the prisoner and his counsel. Judge Smith, is
execraed though admired for the gallant fight he IL max
ing for his client The prosecution rested this after
weaving about the prisoner web Of proof seemingly
sufficient to hang any man. The evidence Of one witness
John NJ Stanley, brother Of the Sheriff Of Chemung
was especially damaging to the prisoner Stanley
on guard over Menken from May until the day new
trial granted by Judge Murray. He swcars
that Menken asked him in conversation who lived on the
Norton farm and that, being told, tho prisoner said
"Well know that place, and II had taken Katie over
there, could have put her where could have
found her" This caused something OF a sensation In
court and 1t noticed that the prisoner and his coun
sci pte and nervous Later Menken called
to the stand and told his story In straightforward man
ncr lie was very nervous at first but soon assumed
mirthful manner, and told how he and Katie were both
boozy" and how he had to help her up many times
audience began stamping the floor and making dis
turbancc, aud It looked alarming for time but quiet
almost instantly restored by Sheriff Black and his
deputies The prisoner pale and his teeth almost
chattcrcd with fright Harry Brooks, OF the pro-
prctOrs Of The Telegram, called by the defence, and
he and Judge Smith had warm controversy concerning
the post alleged tO have been removed from the bridge
by the prosecution. Governor Hill will sum up the
