" RED NOSED MIKE"
An Application for New Trial Made and the
Grounds on Which 1t is
Based Given.

WLKEsBARRE PA. Feb. 1.-THE at
torneys for Red Nosed Mike - convict
ed of the murdeg of Paymaster Mcclure
and Flanagan, to-day fled motion for
a new trial. The reasons given
by them are thus summarized:
That defendant was not tried by an i'm
partial jury; that he was compelled to
give evidence against himself; that there
was defect in the panel of jurors; that
the court refused to grant a change of
venue and gave no opportunity to estab
Iish the facts alleged in the petition for
such change; because popular prejudice
worked against prisoner, excited by
newspaper reports and exaggerated
rumors; that the alleged printed
confession was allowed in evidence
contrary to law; that the court
refused to sustain challenge preferred
by defendant s counsel, for cause, it APP
pearing that all had an opinion formed,
and that several had expressed that Opin-
ion openly and emphatically, saying
they wanted to get on the jury and TO
give prisoner his deserts; that defendant
was deprived of the services of his
brother-in- law as witness and an
other workman known only by his
number, and that his counsel had
but few hours notice to defend prisoner;
all of which was not in accordance with
the principles Of fairness and impartial
ity which should characterize the pro-
ceedings of the trial of defendant for
capital offense. The court it is expected
will rule on motion next week.

THE FIRE RECORD.
Big Fire at GiImer.

Big tlre at Gilmers
Special to the Gazette.
GuMER, TEX, Feb. 14.-On yesterday
morning shortly before 10 O'Clock the
large planning mill belonging to S. J.
Mings of Gainesville and E. C. Williams
of Tyler was discovered to be on fire, and
before anything could be done
to stop it the fire had gained
such Roadway that the mill and
six or seven hundred thousand feet of
dressed lumber and l 1000 ZOO feet of
rough lumber were destroyed. The citi-
zens succeeded in saving about seventy
five thousand feet of dry rough lumber
and the dry kiln. Had this LUMBER
burned the fire would likely have con-
sumed the residences of John Painter and
Frank Shrum. There is some insurance
on the property destroyed. The mill and
lumber burned were worth twenty to
twenty-five thousand dollars. 1t was
only by the hardest work that the large
two-stoTy frame dwelling of 7. j. Duffy,
situated on the opposite side of the rail-
road, was saved from the flames. His
loss on fencing and damaged furniture is
not less than 500, with no insurance
This is the most disastrous fire that has
visited our town, and it has thrown a
number of hands out of employment.
