THE INSANITY EXAMINATION.

Details of Kuass1I's Murderous Assault.
His Domestic Troubles.
Ernest J. Russell, blood-stained, with
bandsge over his head and around the
hole in his throat where he tried TO let
out his blood, sat in Judge Wsde's court
room yesterday afternoon, deputy
sheriff on each side Of him, and listened
quietly to the testimony that he is in
sane.
While there was nothing wild about
hin actions, his eyes had particularly
painful hunted look, and there were very
dark circles under his eyes. He seemed
to be dazed, although he answered the
questions put to him coherently, if
slowly.
The examination was something out
of the usual run, because upon its result
depended whether or not the unfortun-
ate young man would be tried for as
Hault with intent to commit murder.
: The developments of the examination
brought forth very strange story, and
demonstrated beyond q doubt that
when Russell shot at Sam Goldstein in
the Santa Fe freight building Yesterday
morning and shot Mark Donahue in the
shoulder, just outside the building, he
was crazed man from domestic
troubles.
The examination was conducted DT
Drs. R. Wernigk and F. I. BicknelI and
was quite prolonged.
The first witness called WAS Chemist
9. f. Hance, who said that Russell
called on him several times recently in
regard to procuring chemical tests OF
mutton chops cooked by his wife, and
with other substances. He had them
analysed for poison. telling Mr.. Hance
that his wife, he believed, was trying TO
poison him. Hs told him he had do
