1oe Ssote Nearing euse Close In the Cro0e0
Murder Case.
CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-It il probable that
the state will close its presentation Of evi-
dlence in the Coughlin case by Saturday
noon. The medical experts, Detective
Flynn and T. r. COnklin are about all the
witnesses the state has yet to introduce,
unless Joe Mclaughlin should arrive and
Major" Sampson and Hostler Moreland
should he found.
The defense is preparing to make q des.
perate onslaught on the states case. Each
leading witness for the prUsecution-Mrs.
Foy, Mrs. Hoertel, Mrs. Horton, Mr.. Bar
desn and Milkman Mertes-will he as
sailed in one way or another by witnesses
whom the defense will present. 1t will be
charged that Mrs. Foy testified for the
state under promise Of reward, and her
story will be otherwise impeachesl.
COughlin himself will take the stand Ia
contradict Mrs. Foy, Mertes, Bartleen and
Mrs. Horton, and to give his explanation
Of how he came to hire the white horse of
Dinan for his friend smith The defense
will lie long and vigorous.

tr.tion-A Sensational Story Looked
For-The Daltons Preparing to Raise
Cain In Oklahoma-Thcir Recent Move
ments-Chris Evans Again.
I, ST. LOUIS, Jan. l2-The police of this
city have suddenly been confronted by one
of the most mysterious cases they ever tried
to solve. A man named Steve X. WilskO
applied at a boarding place, l4I2 Olive
street, for a room, finally engaging a room
for week, paying therefor in advance.
He then left the house, returning late in
the afternoon snd going-instead Of to his
own room-t0 one on the same floor occu-
pied by Miss Josie Stevenson. Late last
night a man called at the house and asked
to see Miss Stevenson. Going to her room
to call her the landlady found the door
open. Miss Stevenson was lying on the
floor dead with hlllethoie through her
forehead. Wilsko was on the bed, some
six feet distant, shot twice through the
heart. Between the two on the floor was a
revolver, all Eve chambers of which were
empty.
Indications 0G Double Murder.
The first theory was that murder had
been followed by suicide, but after an ex-
animation Of the room and the wounds the
police say that neither Of the dead persons
could have fired the fatal shots. The two
, additional shots from the revolver were
fired AT the man, but missed Although
there were several persons in the house.

all afternoon--no one heard any shooting
or unusual noise. The man who called
Cor Miss Stevenson has disappeared and
cannot he found. His name has been as
| ccrtained to Ike X. q. Mason. Nothing is
known of Wilsko and but little of Miss
| stevenson. The whole affair is shrouted
in great mystery and much of Il sensation

Mail Clerk Was Ready for Business.

ST. JOSEPH, NIB, Jan. la.--There are no
developments OF Ofimportance in connection
with the Eli train robbery. The rumor
that the mail ear was entered and two
pouches of registered matter taken are
groundless, as NO attempt was made to en-
ter the mail car at all. The mail clerk,
however, when he heard the noise at the
door Of the express car, barricaded his
door and got his guns ready. but the rob-
bers did not come. The total loss is now
put at 81 900.
