The failure of Gaptain-elect James Sprouts

the Brigade Examining Board created no
surprise in regimental circles The result of
the examination was just what the

VERY BAD FOR MONsON.
Ru Cable to the united presa.

EDINBURGH, Dec. 10, 1S93.-The most SEN
sational evidence adduced in the trial of
Alfred John Monson for the murder
Of Lieutenant Hambrough was given to-
day before the High Court of JUS
ticiary by constable named Campbell
ineteen cartridges that were found in the
pockets of Lieut.. Hamorough after his death
All these cartridges were for use in
twenty bore gun and all were loaded with
No. 6 shot. This testimony, taken with
the evidence in regard to the shot found
in the skull of the deceased not correspond
ing with the shot used by Lieutenant
Hambrough, form the most notable link in
the chain of circumstantial evidence
the prosecution is forging around Monson.
Counsel for Monson cross-examined Consta-
BILE Campbell, his questions being intended
to show by the witness that somebody
might have dut the cartridges produced into
the pockets oil the deceased. The witness
maintained that he snd another constable
remained on duty night and day to see that
nothing touched the body.
Constable Mcintyre corroborated the pre-
ceeding witness.
The Importance of this testimony can be
Judged when it is stated that it is claimed
by the defence that Lieutenant Ham
brough met his death by the accidental dis
charge of his own gnn.

ROME, Dec. 49, 1S93.-Owing to the situa-
ton in Sicily, growing out of the taxation
schemes, the government is sending troops
to augment the present forces on the island,
which number 5000 men, A determined at
tempt will be made to put down the rioting
that has occurred of late in connection with
the popular agitation against the new taxes
Efforts will, it is said, also be made to break
the influence of the secret society, the Malta,
which is held to be responsible for much of
the evil now prevalent in Sicily.
The ColTtere says that had the intentions
of Signor Crispi been realized there would
have been a better Ministry than the one now
in power. Still, the paper adds, the present
Ministry is the best that Italy has had in
many years. Prime Minister Crispi is not
responsible for the defects in the present
Cabinet. This crisis has a peculiar story,
which the paper promises to tell and confirm
by documents where such confirmation is
necessary, because it appears that the spirit
of faction and antagonism to the govern
ment has deeper roots than is supposed,

AFTER REV. HATHAWAY
The Congregation of His Church
Seem Tired Of Him
Meeting Tonight.

An important meeting of the Westminster
Presbyterian Church is to be held this EVEN
ing. The annual meeting, at which the off,
GERS of the church for the ensuing year were
elected, was held a week ago tonight. 1t had
been decided at joint meeting of the
various boards held previous to the annual
meeting that in view of slight
dissension among members of the eongrera-
ton, together with the taking into consider
alton the financial condition of the affairs Of
the church, that it would be advisable to
have talk among the members of the com
gregation with reference to the pastoral
charge.
THE PASTOR INFORMED.
Rev. DIR. hathaway was so informed OF
action of the board, and, it is claimed,
consented to leave the room as soon as the
election of officers and other general business
of the annual meeting was over, leaving to
the congregation the option of appointing
another chairman.
After the election of officers took place at
the recent annual meeting no effort was APP
parently made to vaeate the chair, as had
been previously arranged. But after short
delay motion was entertained by the chair
and duly carried.
DR.. Hathaway Immediately left the room,
after which several members expressed their
ideas in language somwhat emphatic.
The spokesman, at least, felt that they
had been more or less insulted by the
Pastors action in allowing such motion to
prevail, he, knowing the feeling of the
officers of the church with reference to the
future transaction of business yet to be
transacted.
THE MEETING TONIGHT DECIDED ON.
An informal meeting was Immediately
called. G. G. Jewell was selected as Chair
man, and o. Banks, Secretary.
1t was decided that the Secretary be in
structed to forward a resolution adopted at
the meeting to the effect that the congrega-
ton request the session that it call
a meeting of the congregation to take
into consideration the spiritual welfare
of the Church, more especially the pastoral.
relationship. Notice was given last Sabbath
to the effect that the Session had granted
such a request, and that a meeting of the
congregation would be held in the church
parlors this evening.

IMPORTANT TAX DECISION.

TRENTON Dec 10, 1898. Judge Albeit
fled an opinion in the Supreme Court
today, holding that in cases where
the payment of tax on real estate at period
twenty yaars or longer prior to date is in
dispute, the presumption is that the tax has
been paid and the burden of proof is on the
taxing authorities
This is an important decision, for the
reason that it affects all the cities
in the State which are trying to
collect taxes under the Martin act
In Trenton an attempt has been made
to collect from present owners ef
property taxes unpaid forty years ago when
others We're in possession of it. They
appealed from such assessments and
it turned out that many owners were not
born at the period of delinquency. Under
the loose taxing system formerly in vogue
the city has lost over 500, 900.
