ETIDENCE CONCLUDED.
The Case Against Mrs, Ghann
Considered Very Weak.
A VERDICT EXPECTED TONIGHT

The Mystery of the Disemboweime ent as
Deep as Evcr-The Theory of the De-
fense That It Was Done by Insurance
Men Not substantiated.
TRENTON, Aug 1s.-General interest in
the Sham case is subsiding. The public
feeling here is that the state has not made
out much of a case against the prisoner.
The mystery of the disembowelment is as
deep as ever, and Mrs. Shann's story of it
Is disbelieved; yet the state has faiNd to
show that she committed the deed or pro
cured its commission.
Many theories are rife concerning the
case The most interesting of these is
that Mrs. Shann, fearing the insurance
companies would discover that her son
was diseased when he was passed as sound,
had his internal organs removed, hoping
thus to destroy proof of his disease, while
relying on the certificate to show that he
died of gastrts.
The theory of the defense is that the in
surance men stole Johu's internal organs
i'm order to throw suspicion on Mrs. Sham
and escape the payment of policies. They
have proved nothing of the sort, however,
and the universal expectation in Trenton
is that the jury will acquit Mrs Sham or
disagree.
William Whortley, a night watchman,
testified that he heard carriage pass
down Witherspoon street. in Princeton, at
3 o'clock in the morning of the day that
young Shann's body was mutilated. He
met three men about the same hour about
a hundred yards from Witherspoon street.
Mabel Sham was recalled and testified
that she used to give her brother medicine.
a ia, r,,Y
two weeks during the latter part of his
sickness. Under cross-examination the
witness was asked if she did not swear at
the coroner's inquest that she never had
given John any medicine She admitted
that she had 50 sworn but she was sick at
the time and greatly distracted.
At this point ex Senator Vanderbilt ex-
claimed, The defense rests" and the
state began the calling of witnesses in re-
| buttal
| Several witnesses were put on the stand
and swore they were on Witherspoon
street the morning of the mutilation. They
saw no lights in the Sham house. and
came across no carriages or pedestrians.
! DIR. Bergen went on the stand to contra
dict Mrs. Sham and her daughters who
| had testified that he refused for a long
time to call another physician in for con-
sultation with him. DIR. Bergen further
cOntradicted some of the evidence given by
the Shauns regarding his prescriptions.
The state offered in evidence the will OF
Mrs Shann's late husband to prove heI
necessity for cash and the motive she had
in poisoning her son.
Vle summing up in the case will prob
ably be finished today, and it is expected
that verdict will be reached tonight.

RACE RIOT IN FRANCE.


French WOrkmen.
PARIS, Aug. 1S-- French and italian
workingmen fought in Aigues-Mortes, de
partment of Gard, yesterday. The fight
began in the street at noon and was car
ried on intermttently for nearly two
hours. The police made repeated efforts
to restrain the men, but were not strong
enough to restore the peace. Ten men
were killed and twenty-six more were
wounded severely. A disturbance was
threatened again in the evening, but was
prevented by the police
After the fight the French workingmen
who had beaten the Italians started a man
hunt for the ostensible purpose of eXter-
minating the foreign worllingmen in the
town. They attacked with knives and
clubs every Italian chat they caught. The
Italians fled from the town, and most Of
those who had been in the fight took pos
session of farm buildings and barricaded
the doors The troops summoned to order
rescued them early in the evening, drove
away the French workiugmen and escorted
the Italians to the railway station, where
most of the men took train for Mar
seilles The number of wounded is now
known to be above forty. Ten dead bodies
have been found, and others probably will
be picked up in the fields. All the killed
and most of the wounded were Italians.
