The Government Makes a Strong
Case Against Coy.
WHALEN'S WATCH IN HIS TRUNK.
The Havcrhin Shoe Strike win be Long
and Bitter-The VIII of Miss Hunt of
Brldgeport-The Shooting of Deputy
McNalIy.

PITTsFIELD, March 23.-There was an
increased interest and an increased at
tendance at the Coy murder trial yester-
day. A very strong case is being made
out against Coy, whose indifference has
given away to unconcealed anxiety. The
Commonwealth testimony already intro
duced has established robbery as the
motive of the crime.
Elmer B. Messenger, Michael Daley
Dwight NJ. Squires, Henry w. Carter,
Mrs. Eliza A. Geer, William c. Ross and
Theodore Gray testified yesterday. Gray
identified the watch found in Coy's
trunk as the one he sold Whalen last
April. This was the most important
point brought out.
The afternoon session was made inter-
esting by the introduction of expert
medic"l testimony and the production in
court OF the blood stained coat and vest
worn by Whalen at the time of his mur-
der, together witheeveral skulls, portions
of skulls, and various other bones, used
to illustrate Whalen's injuries.
The first witness was Selectman A. b.
Pomroy of Washington, whose dog dis
covered Whalen's grave in the woods.
His testimony was mainly concerning the
finding of the body.
DIR. Frank X. Paddock, me edical exam
iner, was called next, and testified as to
the examination OF Whalen's body. A
piece an inch wide by two and one half
Inches long was broken from the skull on
the left side, and driven in on the brain;
the throat was cut with an axe, the blows
being given with such force as to chip the
verte brae and nearly sever the head from
the body; the legs were cut off a short
way above the knees and laid across the
body in the grave.
He gave as his opinion that the fracture
of the skull was produced while Whalen
was lying on his right side, and the
throat cut before the fracture had pro-
duced death.
The doctor stated that a man as drunk
night OF the murder, could have been
OF lying down and would sleep twelve
hours il undisturbed.
George n. Kelley, who was arrested
with Coy as accessory TO the murder and
afterwards discharged, saw Coy the day
after the murder. Coy had a big roll of
bills which he failed to account for. Coy
gave him $40 to accompany him to Al
bany in search of Mrs. Coy, whom he
claimed was to elope with Whalen.
They found Mrs. Coy Monday morning.
Coy bought her gold watch and q new
cloak, and himself a suit of clothes.
While in Jail in this city, Coy went 70
witness cell and told him he wan ted him
to swear in court that he had heard
Whalen threaten his (Coy's) life.
At the conclusion of Kelley's testimo-
ny, the court adjourned.

A North Tiyerton, Mass. Pastor Left Home
and Suspicious Circumstances.
FALL RIVER, Mass, March 23.-Rev. w.
II. Childs, pastor OF the North Tiverton
and Globe Village Primitive Methodist
churches, is missing, and his disappear
ance has created a sensation in local
church circles.
The news of his permanent departure
became known positively by the receipt
of letter by his wife, dated "Boston,
March 90" 1t said that he was about to
leave for Europe and would never return;
that Mrs. Childs and the children had
better remove to New York, and that she
would find $40 in a drawer to pay the ex-
penses. Mrs. Childs says that before he
went away he appeared worn out and be-
wildered.
Mr.. Childs was entrusted with $500, the
proceeds of a church fair held on Wash
ington's birthday, and the fact that this
money has not been fully accounted for
is causing unpleasant comment among
members of the congregation. Miss Emily
Walker treasurer OF the Ladies' Aid So
ciety, says the church trustees expected
Mr.. Childs to pay certain bills from the
profits OF the fair, but some, including
one large one, remain unpaid.
Mrs. Childs has one son and daugh-
ter, and she will arrange to leave this
place at the earliest moment. MIR. Childs
did not accept the call of the churches to
guide them for another year, and por-
tion of the salary due him as we'll as a
small subscription. will be paid over to
those he has left behind.

STILL IT'S BEHRING SEA
The Cabinet Discussed Lord Sails
bury's Communication.
A REPLY IN PREPARATION.
The Government win stand Firmly by Its
Position-A $1,000 Fire in the Fold
Ing Room of the House of Repre-
sentatlyes.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The entire
ression OF the cabinet yesterday was con-
sumed in considering the Bering Sea
question. Lord Salisbury's reply TO Mr..
wharton's note OF the sth inst, insisting
upon a renewal OF the modus vivendi for
the present season, was read and formed
the basis OF the discussion.
The utmost reticence is retained by the
members OF the cabinet as TO the contents
of Lord Salisbury's note, yet there is
reason to believe that ii is unsatisfactory
TO this government.
The position announced in Mr.. Whar-
toms note of the Sth inst, is not,
in the opinion OF the President and his
cabinet successfully contToverted. Lord
Salisbury's reply as TO the main point Is
said TO be indecisive, and although he
contends against the renewal, he does
not commit himself so far as to decline
his assent 10 it.
There is also reason TO believe that Lord
Salisbury suggests, as a condition prece-
dent TO any modus vivendi that might be
established between the two govern
ments, that the United States should OBJ
ligate itself 10 indemnify Canadian vessel
owners for any losses sustained by them
in case it is decided by the arbitrators
that the United States has no right to
prevent pelagic sealing.
1t Is said that reply is now being pre-
pared in which that government will
stand firmly by the former position.
