The Alliance lecturer is wholly in

Alliance publicly declares that neith-

serve his country? In what way did

withdraws from it or is expelled,

THE GRAVES TRIAL.
Testimony to the Writing ON the
Fatal Bottle of whisky.

Testimony as to the Writing ON the
Fatal Bottle of whisky.
DENVER, Dec. 23.-In the Barnaby-
Graves trial today the defense opened
the case by placing Edward Field and
Colonel Ballon, the latter of counsel for
the defense, on the stand. Nothing new
was brought out.
Two experts in handwriting swore
that although the inscription on the
whisky bottle was similar in writing to
letters written by Graves. they did not
think both writings were by the same
person. In cross-examination, however,
both experts admitted that many letters
in the inscription on the bottle and
those on Graves letters were the same.
j. A. Bennett, a veterinary surgeon,
was called to prove that arsenite of
potassium was sometimes kept in livery
stables. The point to be made
was to show that as the
bottle of whisky remained in
a buggy in a stable over night before be-
ing delivered to Mrs. Barnaby, some
of the hostlers might have drank the
original contents of the bottle, and to
escape detection reflled it from the
nearest bottle at hand. In this way
they might have stumbled on the
bottle OF arsenite of potassium and
emptied it into the original bottle.
Upon cross-examination they could not
name any positive instance in which
they had seen arsenite of potassium in &.
livery stable.

people of ireland gave the hands Of
Parnell and his parliamentary
colleages charge of your political
interests and honor and the safety
of the national cause. You asked
US by constitutional means to restore pros
perity, peace and freedom to our country,
and animated by his spirit, guided by his
clear intelligence and tirmness of soul, we
carried the cause to a point at which the
tower of victory could be seen by all
men. But in an unfortunate hour the ma
jority of the Irish representatives, at the
bidding of an English statesman, broke
our ranks, abandoned the flag of in
dependent opposition, and ranged
themselves as followers and satellites
of British statesmen. We refused to be-
come parties 10 the treason, relying upon
the national conviction and maintained
our allegiance TO an independent party
in lthe conviction that the people would
ratify and support US. The great leader is
dead, but the cause lives on. Relying on
your devotion to Irish nationality We pro-
pose to carry on the struggle until the
principles LOT WHICH ne HVeu ana dleu

The parliamentary party is pledged to
work for Ireland under the flag of
an independent opposition absolutely free
from the control of any foreign power
or party This is our resolution. Its real
ization depends on you. 1t involves sacri-
tices and struggles, and we call on you
to make them. True to the principle that we
are the instruments of the people, we have
resolved to call convention of repre-
sentative Irishmen to discuss in the
name of the nation the means whereby to
carry out tho policy and programme ne
bequeathed US in dying. To our ranks we

that the political affairs of Ireland should

Foster and Silver.

A report which gained ready currency in
some quarters, but whose paternity cannot
be traced, represents Secretary Foster as
considering the question whether TO con-
tinue the coinage of the stand
ard silver dollar after the present
operations at the minis are con-
cluded, under the discretion vested in
him by the silver law of 1890. There is the
best of authority for saying that the story
is 4 mere guests. The secretary is not con-
sidering the question in any of its phases ut
present. He has no idea of introducing the
coinage problem in his annual report, be-
You'd the ordinary reference to the work
which has been done during the year. He
will make no recommendations and
suggest no policies. His notion is that il IS
no part Of the duty OF Republican secre-
tary to outline the sessions tasks for a
Democratic house, and the temper and
purposes of a majority of the senate have
already been made known IS opposed to
the opinion of the administration on the
silver question, so that anything he might
say would be only thrown away there.
