Dramatic Evidence Connects
Walling With the Pearl
Bryan Murder.
Confession of the Accused Admitted
in Evidence Against Protests
of the Defense.

CINCINNATI, OHIO, June Sat the
opening OF the Walling trial this morning
Judge Helm ruled that all of WaIling'
damaging admissions, as related by Re-
porter Anthony yesterday, should be adj
mitted. This decision was blow to the
defense, for a part of the testimony ad-
mitted was Walhng's confession that he
knew Pearl Bryan had been murdered.
Elizabeth Ware, the tollgate-keeper, tes.
tilted that on the night of the 31st of Janu-
ary, about midnight, a carriage drawn by
one horse passed through the tollgate.
The driver would not stop, said she, to
pay his toll even after she had called for
him to do so.
Watchman Pat Kinney of the Grand
Central Station said that on the afternoon
of January 81 he saw Alonzo Walling and
young woman answering Pearl Bryan's
description. The girl was weeping. She
was constantly talking to Walling, who
seemed to turn a deaf ear to her en-
treaties.
Kinney's Identification of Walling was
intensely dramatic. Turning round to the
witness box he pointed out Walling's red
dening face, and declared, "I can never
forget that man nor that girl" Wallfng
eyed, the witness and attempted to smile.
The case will probably go to the jury by
the end of next week.

William Gildea, the last OF the i've men
tried together, replied to the interpreter
'All have to say is that do not under
stand one word that has been said for me
or against me. and at any rate appeal to
both the British and American consuls." /"
The court made its finding within fifteen
minutes after Gildea made this statement.
Before the trial Gildea made statement
that he was a poor sailor and went on
board the Competitor thinking she was
bound for Sable Keys fishing, and that he
knew nothing of the nature OF the busi-
ness until after it started. Laborde stated
that his ship had been hired to do fishing,
but that he was held up by revolver and
ordered to go to Cuba.
Witness also saw Dygert, who was i'm
prisoned at Guines with twenty-five others
IN room net larger than sixteen by eigh-
teen feet. The food given him was exc

he was not permitted to change his

The Correspondent Tells About the Court
Martial of the Com DetitOr's Hen.


WASHINGTON, d. c., June 5.-The-
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
this afternoon removed the Injunction of
secrecy from the testimony in relation to
Cuban affairs of Frederick w. Lawrence
and Rev. A. j. Diaz. Lawrence, referring
to the arrest of Alfred Laborde and Milton,
who were on the Competitor, said that so
far as the testimony of the men who cap
tured them before the court-martial went,
it showed that neither of the men had
arms upon their persons. From an Amer
lean point of view, these prisoners were
not assisted by counsel, but from Span
ish point of view they had counsel. This
counsel consisted OF lieutenant in the
navy, who asked questions and who cross
examined no witnesses. No witnesses
were produced but Captain Butron and
the other officers of the Mensaierra This
lieutenant asked for c emency for Laborde
on account of the il Iustrieus place his
name had borne in the Spanish navy, and
for Milton because he was not there for
the purpose of fighting, but merely on his
business as newspaper correspondent.
The men were even asked if they had

have not only learned positively that
Herrmans was at the Union station in
this city about May IL but they have
traced his movements since then, and last

him that Herrmans had been located and
telling him that if the Salt Lake City au-
thorities would send enough money here
the St. Louis police would bring about the
fugitive criminals apprehension. Chief
Harrigan wishes complete silence kept in
the matter, as any information that came
to the ears OF the fugitive might defeat the

No Hope for the Passage of the Meas.
ure During the Short Session
of Congress.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June Ex-senator
Gear has abandoned his intention of ask
ing vote on his motion setting the eighth
legislative day of the next session for con-
sideration of the funding bill.
Gear told Senator White and others to-
day that he would not press his motion,
so it is hoped the last has been heard of
the funding bill for this session.
Judge Mcguire is of the opinion that it
cannot pass at the short session, for it
could hardly be reached before January,
and the determined handful of Senators
who oppose the bill could discuss the
measure for weeks and prevent vote, as
there is no rule in the Senate to limit de-
bate.
Senator Morgan to-day explained to a
brother Senator his action in supporting
Gears motion of yesterday. setting day
for consideration of the bill next session.
He said he was confident the bill would
be beaten, and he was anxious that it
should be brought to a vote and knocked
