WITNESSES CENsURED.
The Trial of Louis MuhIner Proceeds
Very Slowly.

Very Slowly.
OAKLAND, Dec. 5.-Louis Muhlner
was apparently the most unconcerned
man in Judge Tricks courtroom to-day.
He rarely expresses any interest in the
proceedings and beyond an occasional
word to his attorney he speaks to nobody.
Te-day's proceedings were devoted to the
testimony Of doctors and Steward Victoy
of the Receiving Hospital. These wit
nesses proved that Jennie Lewis death
was due to shooting and that she died after
lingering over one hundred hours at the
Receiving Hospital.
Judge Prick relieved the monotony OF
the proceedings by scoring Steward Vic
toy and Policeman Quigley, who were not
on time. A deputy sheriff was sent after
Victoy and all sorts Of punishments for
contempt were threatened by the Judge If
any witnesses in future should not be
present TO respond to the bailiff's call
His Honor has ordered that court meet at
1910 o'clock each morning, so that Attor-
neY Maggie, who comes from across the bay,
can be on time.
This afternoon D. F. Wilson, q light.
heuse-keeper from Point Reyes, testified
about revolver with which Muhlner prac-
tieed at targets at Olema, about twenty-six
miles from the point. Muhlner was q
Government weather observer at the point.
The prisoners father, an elderly man, was
by bis son side throughout the day.

miles from Tarrytown, was shot and slightly
wounded on Monday night by his daughter,

during the afternoon. and drinks depended on
every turn of the pieces. At o'clock both
Mathers and his compenion were intoxicated.
Mrs. Mathers entered the barroom and ordered
her husband to stop gambling and drinking.

Olney remained with the President some time

Congress relating to foreign affairs. The Secre-
tary of State c the only Cabinet official not
permitted to make report directly to Con-
gress through the President. All communica-
tions in regard to foreign relations emanate
from the President. and usually take the first
place in his message. The only exception was
when Mr.. Cleveland. in his first term sent in
his celebrated tariff message and rertted all
questions of foreign policy TO subsequent spe-
cial messages.
There Is every reason to believe that foreign
