lea generally, but was total at nc
point as the earth was toe
far away. The aDnuiar path of the
eclipse passed over the northwest corner
of United States and extended northeast
across British America and Hudson,l
Bay To produce an eclipse the moor
must be new and must be at or near
node. On this account we cannot haYs
more than two year. The shadow pro
duced is not more than 1S5 miles il
diameter. and travels west to east ovel

The examination OF Witnesses In the
case Of the state vs.. J.. B. Grean was
concluded Monday. The case was
argued by the counsel Tuesday and
given to the jury at $50 O'Clock.
A full account Of the case was given ct
the time Of the former trial. at the close
OF which, on the 9th of September, Green
was found guilty Of msnslAuRhter
IN the first degree. The charge being OF
murder in the first degree, he was
granted new trial on the ground that
the verdict rendered was not In accord
with the charge. A very general resume
Of the circumstances may be Of interest
Early last spring Green and young
Harry Roblier started one evening to
procure the honey from Q bee-tree. They
were gone all night, and in the morning
were seen returning along the line Of the
Missouri Pacific railroad south Of the
city. Later, Green went to farmers in
the neiRhborhood and told them Roblier
had been killed. and those going to the
railroad found his body near the track
with life not yet quite extinct. The
prosecution endesvored to prove by the
testimony OF the enginee, and those who
saw Green and Robller, the passing train
and by Green's actions and other circnm-
stantiAl evidence that he was guilty Is
charged.
Considerable STIR and excitement was
occasIoned In the court yesterday
when the Wright case for train wreck
ing IVES tsksn MP. It appears that Ed.
Morris, who is confined In the county
Jail for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses, and who was 70 testify for the
state, last night after the jury had been
impaneled sent for the county attorney,
Col. Feighan, and asserted that Officer
Churchill, in order 70 make . witness OF
him against Wright, had offered him
800 If he would TESTIFY that Wright
made certain confessions to him while
they were confped together that
Churchill wrote ont the testimony and,
that he had entered into the scheme IN
the interests Of Wright whom he thought
he could aid and the proper time. As
prosecution had been entered into by
the county attorney believing the testi-
mony coming from Morris to Be true.
this confession put an entirely differ
ent aspect on the case, and
led the above mentioned
commotion attendant on z rather warm
discussion Of the matter. Judge Graves
put quietus on the whole matter by In
structing the jury 70 render q verdict of
not guilty in the Wright case.

ing to bribe Witnesses, followed on
complaint filed by the county attorney.
