THAT HOMESTEAD POISONING.
Testimony o. j. Nj. Davidson and Other
Witnesses.

PTTTSEURG. Dec. 10.-The hearing in the
case Of Robe TT Beatty, charged with fur
nishing poison with which to poison non
union workn en- at Homestead. was held
Saturday before squire McMasters. W. :.
Brennan represented the defendant, who
was brought into the room by Special Of
ficer Farrell, and the prosecution was rep
resented by f. y. Breck. Patrick Gala
CHER, the cook who made the confession
was not pres, mt. J. NJ. Davidson, formerly
cook at the mills, swore that on Aug. -
last he, Gallagher, and Beatty talked with
Master Work man Dempsey about putting
something in-o the food of the non-union
lists at the mills that would disable them.
Dempsey Supplies Powder.
Dempsey said that he knew of a powder
that would do the work and promised to
pay the cooks if they would use it, They
got the powder and used it and it made a
number of the men i'll. Brennan's cross
examination did not shake his testimony.
J. II. Ford, E detective, confirmed the tes-
timony of Davidson, having heard the plot
discussed. He said that Beatty said that
two of the ingredients were rhubarb and
snuff. Louis Wolfers, steward at the
mills, testified to the unaccountable sick
ness among the men about the time the
poison was administered He and his
wife became IL and were not yet we'll.
Two of the Sufferers.
W. f. Bullock and Joseph Leslie, two
men who were made i'll by the drug, testi-
fled to its effect on them. None of this ties
timony was impeached Brennan tried TO
get his client off on small bail but the al
derman fiXed it at 5000. Dempsey was
seen after the trial, and said he would say
nothing until the proper time came for him
to speak. He did not say when that

at Nelson and number of cars were
wrecked. A wrecking train has been there
for two days clearing up and was making
up preparatory TO pulling out for the east.
The caboose was left standing on the main
track with number of cars. An east
bound freight was due at O'Clock and had
orders TO side track for the passenger train
due here at LEO.
Result of the Collision.
There is heavy grade west of the sta
ton, and as the freight, with thrty-six
cars, under charge of Conductor William
Mickey and Engineer James Maloney, APP
preached the switch the steam was shut off
and brakes called for, but the speed was
too great to stop. When within a trains
length of the caboose both engineer and
fireman jumped. The engine struck the
caboose and threw it on top of the next
car. both being set on fire There were
fourteen mel in the caboOse One jumped
off, five were hurt and eight were killed,
three being burned beyond recognition and
one totally burned, not a sign of his re-
mains being found

The men killed were wrecking train
hands and were asleep when the train
strucE it. O. Bergland the foreman. was
the only one awake and had barely time to
call to his men and Jump, thus saving HIM
self but the warning came too late for the
others, who were all killed or badly in
jured. The conductor says the sight was
too horrible to tell about Four of the
bodies We're burned to crisp and laid out
on the ground near ny. Another body lay
in the ashes of the fire with most OF the
flesh burned off.

The MIDDLE In Wyoming.

CHEYENNE, Dec. l0.-The supreme court
Saturday morning overruled the motion
made by counsel for the state canvassing
board to quash the writ of mandamus in
the Carbon county contested election cases.
Counsel for the board then moved to quash
the writ because the petition filed by the
Democratic contestants was not specific in
stating who constitute the legal members
of the canvassing board. The evident
intent of the Republicans is to
get a decision of court as to whether
Osborn or Barber is the legal governor.

CINCINNATI. Dec. 19.-What will become
of the Rev. Henry Preserved Smith, who
has just been suspended from the ministry
by the Cincinnati presbytery' is a question
often asked. Professor Smith himself does
not yet know, but his position is this: He
will appeal to the synod of Ohio, and if
necessary to the general assembly. The
first of these bodies meets here in October,
1893, and if it should dispose = his case i'm
mediately and an appeal to the general
assembly became necessary, he could not
get before that body until May, 1894. Mean
time he claims the right to be Presby-
terrain in good standing, and the board of
trustees of Lane seminary have indicated
that they will retain him at that place.

show any signs of rapid improvement, al
