 ally Fired" PROUF OF GOOD CHARAC TER Evdedce Closed ard Attorney Vaughn Opens for the StaIa-Adjourr9d Uatil
 Tomorrow.
1OUF OF GOOD CHARACTER

The preliminary trial of Officer Byars was continued yesterday morning before Justice Benners in the circuit court room. Several witnesses were examined and Attorney Vaughn opened argument for the prosecution, after which court ad- jonrned until o'clock tomorrow morn- ing.
 The Testimony.
 MT A. NJ. Byrum, superintendent of the gas company, was called for the de- fense.
 The witness saw Officer Byars running after a woman on the morning ot the 1Gth and saw him fire pistol in the air and afterwards catch the woman near the place where Lizzie Durr was killed. Ii was dark and when the officer caught the negro she was about $50 feet from the railroad track The witness saw no other person near.
 Officer J N. Byars then took the stand in his own behalf
 have been on the force five years. l was on my regular beat in the neighbor- hood of the gas warks on the morning Of the 16th. We had instructions rom superior officers to watch out for coal thieves Officer McCullom and l were at the gas works warming about o'clock, when he suggested that we go to Wyeth's saloon and see if all was well. On the way there l saw three forms on coal car. I drew my pistol and ran to them and told them to come down. One of them threw a lot of coal on me and the other jumped on me l fell and my pistol accidentally fired, when one Of them jumped on me. When l got up l saw one of the women running off and l ran after her. I fired my pistol in the ni I Cullom as I was going back 1 asked him if he caught any and he said that one had been killed. I thought he was "guying'' the woman 1 had with me. asked the woman who threw the coal on ne and she said it was a boy, 1 had no intention of killing anyone. My pistol was a self-acting revolver. MT. McCul- lom was behind me when the woman jumped. It was too dark to tell whether the forms on the car were men or women.
 The witness was cross-eXamined, but his statement was not shaken.
 Several witnesses testified to defend- ants good character, among whom were Messrs. NJ. A. Porter s. w. Acton. T. c. Mcdonald, Charles G. Brown and Will liam Sims

 Captain Weir of the police force said that he gave defendant instructions to patrol the district where the shooting oc- cured and give the coal stealing especial attention He also testified as to defend- ants good character
 pr. A. M. Browns expert testimony harmonized with pr. Wyman's regard ing the location and effect of the wound. After the argument by Attorney Vaughn the court adjourned

Chicago Change.

Chicago Change.
 Chicago Dec 21.-That the market in wheat was sensitive to the action of tho New York stock market Was G'ite patent from the fact that the fluctuations and changes met with, ready response, and when the New York exchange closed wheat became quiet, with the tone steady. During the first hour the feeling very nervous, not so much so probably as yesterday but still sufficiently cratic as to render opera tors more than usually hazardous. Not great deal of wheat changed hands, and on insignificant orders there were frequently from 4M3sc variation in prices. There was a noticeable backwardneSs on the part of outsiders, and considering everything the market was essentially a local one. New York holders lquidated freely yesterday a very few orders coming from that point to- day. Large export sales yesterday at the seaboard were confirmed this morning. May wheat opened at 571s457Ac, sold between 5S7B and 57AM571se, closing at 579sc. shade higher than yesterday. Cash wheat ruled quiet
 Corn-The corn market was slow as com pared with wheat although the same feel ing of unrest and uncertainty which pre- vailed in the greater was seen in the lesser. Prices held close to the final quotations of yesterday, no important declines or ad- yances taking place. The retardation of re- ceipts by the recent rains tended in a meas ure to steady the tone. May corn opened at 27&G2Sc. advanced to and closed at 2Sc, he higher than yesterday. Cash corn was quiet and unchanged.
 Oats-This market was reported very dull. with a fair quotation of steadiness to the tone. The rapid and irregular vibrations of wheat met with only indifferent response, no serious apprehension being apparent in the trade. May oats closed a shade higher than yesterday. Cash oats were dull but steady.
 Provisions-Products pursued an indepen- dent course as far as grain was concerned, but was affected by it's natural influence the hog market. Prices were weak early, but under the force of good buying improved later in the day Only a moderate business was transacted, no important development being noted. At the close May pork was 71ac higher than yesterday, May lard un- changed and May ribs 21sc higher.
 The leading futures ranged as follows:
