any other suggestions, regarding other
crimes?

an attack on character
"Objection sustained" said the
court.
A similar offer regarding the making
of money was made and permitted by
the court. In reply to Nye's question
Blixt said on one occasion when he
wanted some new skates and clothes
that Hayward had told him if he

What else did he say?' was asked.
"Well, he said he'd give me S. if I'd
go to burn the barn. 1t was right
across the street. Afterward he said

LA GAsCoGNE OVERDUE.
Fear That Some Accident Has Re-
fallen the Steamer.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-The steamship
La Gascogne had not been sighted up
to Il O'Clock last night. While any
number of theories for her long delay
are being advanced the agents of the
French line console themselves with
the most probable one, which is that
some accident has happened to the yes
sells machinery which would necessi-
tate her proceeding under sail. This
hope is accentuated by the fact that
her boilers and engines are almost new,
having been substituted for the old
ones during an overhauling of the ves-
sci last summer with the purpose of
increasing her speed and making her q
seven instead of an eight-day vessel.
