A KNOTTY PROBLEM.
The Judge In the COughlin Case Con-
frOnted with n Novel Print.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1S.-The hearing of evil
dence in the Coughlin case was resumed to-
day. The testimony given by the dentist,
DR.. Lewis, at the former trial was pro-
duced. Lewis had done work on DIR. Gro
Minis teeth, and identified the body by this
means. When the reading of Lewis's tes-
timony, on cross-exaInination, was begun,
Attorney Wing objected. He argued that
this reading Of questions and answers, to-
gether with the croSS-eXamiratioa, ought
not TO be allowed, as IL was illegal. The
court was confronted with a strange queS-
ton OF law, and confessed he had never
torney Bottum'S advice was asked, but as
he could offer no support, Judge Tuthill adj
journed court and went to look up the mat
ter.
The entire afternoon was taken UP by
Mrs. Pauline Hoertels's direct and cross
examination, the latter being very severe.
Her evidence, however, was mistaken in
any particular, and the defense was rather
downcast at the result of the days work.
night OF May 4, 1889, she saw a buggy drawn
by a white horse approach the Carlson cot
tage. 1t stopped in front of 1t and a tall
man stepped out, and then reached back
into the buggy for a small box or valise.
He then went up the steps and was adj
mitted TO the house. Almost Immediately.
she said, there came sounds of blows and
fighting. and she heard a voice cry, "Oh,
God; Oh. Jesus" and then more struggling
became frightened and went away. Nothing
could induce the woman to deviate in any
way from her first story. She stuck TO 1T
positively from first to last.

MONSON's TRIAL.
Testimony of Insurance Lawyers md
Betting Gentlemen.

EDINBURGH, Dec. 1S.-The trial OF AL
fred j. Monson, the tutor, who is charged
with the murder of Lieutenant Hambrough
day. The first witnesses called were law
yers representing Major Hambrough and
the insurance companies. They testified to
the various financial arrangements between
their client and Monson- The latter wrote
in 1898 that, up TO November, 1891, Major
Hambrough owed him $4,000, i'm addition
to expenses which the prisoner had in
CURED on behalf of young Hambrough.
Counsel for the prisoner objected TO the
charge OF forgery being touched upon, as IL
was not among the indictments brought
against his client. The lord justice clerk
upheld the objection.
The next feature OF the trial was the
examination OF the various witnesses from
Ardlamont. and IL was directed towards
showing Monson'S betting transactions in
titled TO the transaction which Monson had
with Davis, whom the prosecution clearly
i~nsinuates TO be the missing Scott" The
prosecution, almost at the beginning OF
this testimony. asked that the witnesses
might be required to leave the court room,
in order that Russell might repeat a state
ment which. it is claimed. Davis made TO
him. The defense. however. protested, and
after a lengthy rgument the Judge refused
10 allow Russell TO testify concerning the
Davis statement. The prosecution evidently
attached A great deal OF Importance 10 this
statement. and expressed disappointment
at not being able TO bring IL forward. Po-
liceman McCalum testified that when he
asked Monson. after Hambrough's death,
who Scott" was. Monsoa declared that he

and then put a pistol ball through his own
head. The tragedy occurred in the store of
j. c.. Tucker. on Townson avenue. Miss

A SLAP FROM THE CHURCHES.
Muncie Society Women Getting Up a
Charity ball Meet with a Rebuff.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE. Ind, Dec. 1S.-Charitable So
ciety women of this city have received a
slap in the face, as it were, by a card
published in the Times this evening. and
It's appearance has caused no end OF COM
ment. 1t reads as follows:
A a meeting of the Associated Church
Charities. held Monday morning, we are in
structed. by a unanimous vote, TO say that
the proposed charity ball is not under the
auspices of this association and is in no
way connected with it. The reason for
this action is that the present charity
work is directly under the control and au-
spices of the churches of the city, and that
we believe that a public ball Is not In keep
Ing with the spirit and the work OF the
churches TO even have the appearance or
indorsing the dance. Given by order of the
Associated Church Charities"
The card was signed by IL. 7. Buff. presi-
dent. and NJ. Louise Cassady, secretary.
For several weeks the Misses Jean Smith,
Anna Goddard, SuZane Kirby and other
young society women have labored faith
fully and with much enthusiasm arrang-
ing for the ball, which is to be given on
Thursday night of this week. Over three
hundred invitations were sent out, and the
affair will be the social event of the season.
The young women asked no favors from
the association particularly, but they eX-
pected to turn into the charity fund 5000
or $500 as the proceeds of their work. The
association has not refused to accept the
money. but it may not now be distributed
through that agency. 1t is the general
opinion thai the card was uncalled for.
To-day the remainder of Ball Bros big
Industries, which IA been idle for sever
al months, We're started, consisting OF the
No. / glass factory and tin-stamping
works. About $50 hands are given employ
ment. The start had been previously an
nounced and there were seven men ready
for each place. This describes the situation
in manufacturing Muncie, and is the result
of the crippled condition of the big iron and
steel industries. Most every industry in the
city is now at work, but with greatly re-
duced forces.

Some. of the Medical Experts Desert the
Prosecution and Testify to the
Murderer's Insanity.
DERANGED MAN ON A JURY
Sudden Termination of the Trial
of DR.. Henry Meyer.
One of the Jurors Suffering from an
Acute Attack of Dementia-The Mon
son and COughlin Trials.

CHICAGO. Dec. 1S.-In the Prendergast
trial to-day Attorney Wade. for the de-
Tense. announced that Henry George. who
was to be a witness, had lodged service
and could not be called. Other witnesses
were missing, and court adjourned for a
few hours to allow the defense time to bring
in medical experts.
Assistant State Attorney Todd and his
associate attorney, A S. Trude, sprung a
sensation in the trial when they announced
that the State had been betrayed by the
medical experts. The prosecution claims
that the evidence expected to be used In
rebuttal of the insanity evidence of the de-
Tense has been carried to Prendergasts at
torneys by the doctors. upon whom the
State had relied. Mr.. Trude denounced the
experts in strong terms. and also stated
that certain organizations have raised mon
ey for the defense.
1t was learned later that the statement
made by the prosecution that some of its
expert witnesses on insanity had gone over
to the defense has proven true. 1t Is said
that Prendergast is supplied with money
contributed by outside persons for his de-
Tense. and that this money is being used
to employ experts. This has not been
proven.
Most prominent among the witnesses ex-
amined TO-DAY were DR.. Archibald Church
and DR.. d. b. Brewer. Both are insanity
experts; both were employed by the State
10 examine Prendergast, and both to-day
declared that they consider him insane,
saying he is a victim of "paranoia-" When
DR.. Brewer was c-rosS-examlned by MT.
Trude the latter asked: rs IL not true that
I'm the case of Sturletta Stiles you wrote to
Mr.. Mills. who was then prosecuting, and
said you thought that you would be able
to give some valuable testimony for the
State. and that later you appeared as an
expert for the defense; that, according TO
your declarations. the defendant had an
epileptic fit in front of the tury"
No" was the reply.
Didn't she nav an epileptic fit in
II think she did,"
did you not swear that that epileptic
fit?% vas d genuine anu As"' u IN 0u'

Don't you know that right after she had
room. while you and / and she were going
down stairs. she said. Doctor, l did just
what you told me, and i got even with the
baillff when ] got that mt; / bit his thumb
clear to the bone?'"
NO" said the Doctor.
Mr.. Trude then asked the witness II he
was not a witness in the Dacey murder
not nave a fit before the jury, according
TO DR.. Brewers prescription. This the ply
stefan. denied. and Mr.. Trude sarcastically
inquired:
Don't you give your memory morphine
Doctor?'
No answer was made. The Stiles and
Dacey cases were celebrated Chicago muir
der trials. The Stiles woman was the mis-
tress of Charles Stiles. of the Chicago
Board of Trade. and killed him in the
Palmer House. Mr.. Trude was for the de-
numbering Alderman Gaynor several years
ago.

ter Elston's Bank, Mr.. Furber-Forber-
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES started to es-
cape. He darted through several streets
and entered the ruins OF the Brown & Wat
kins burned mill, where ne was found in
hiding and locked in Jail. On being searched
his supposed real name was found engraved
on his watch, and his address was estab-
lished by letters on his person. He then
broke down and cried, begging to be re-
leased and promising to quit the town at
once. He is held, however, for obtaining
money under false pretenses. At his room
in the Bryant Block was found a change
OF clothes which would have given him a
good disguise. Paquet had a pal who was
around the city with him and who for
warded the drafts for him from Ladoga.

In with the book he was asked If Ii showed
that the defendant had been released on
bond. Tn State objected to the question,
and the defense then offered TO introduce
the record i'm evidence, but this was also
objected TO by the State. The objection was
sustained and the witness excused.
At this point Mr.. Span. OF counsel for
the defense. announced that in the after
noon they would put the defendant herself
upon the stand. and she would be their
last witness. Court then adjourned till 2
o'clock.
When court was convened in the after
noon Sheriff Emmett was the first witness
called TO the stand. He testified that he
received a capias for the arrest Of the
defendant, and had started to serve il when
he met Annie Wagner and her attorney,
Mr.. Brown, at the door, and was told that
she had come to surrender herself.
