ON TRIAL FOR MURDER.

coant Of Edward Longs Death.

BRIDGEPORT. Conn. Nov. 10.-The
trial Of William y. Sidney. charged
with the killing of Edward Long In
Greenwich on the night OF June 6. was
commenced in the Fairfield county SUI
perior criminal court here yesterday.
Judge Milton A. Shumway presiding.
Considerable time was spent in impan-
eung a Jury. and but four witnesses
were examined before adjournment.
Following the reading OF the indct-
ment, Attorney Lynch, who appears for
the defense, moved that the witnesses
be excluded from the courtroom while
the trial was in progress, and though
the motion was opposed by state At
torney Fessenden, Judge Shumway al
lowed It.
But little evidence bearing on the
crime was offered yesterday, the only
witnesses being william d. Cochrane,
civil engineer. VINO prepared a map Of
the scene OF the murder and vicinity;
DR.. S. =. Jones, medical examiner Of
Greenwich; DR.. Charles E. Rowell OF
Stamford and Matthew Murphy.
The crime with which Sidney Is
charged is alleged to be the outcome
OF a quarrel over a woman of question
able character, in which Long, who
was a young hack driver. and a dozen
or more companions became involved.
Long was found dying by the roadside
with a bullet wound in his head. and
the state expects TO prove that Sidney
was the last man seen with Long be-
fore he was shot. The state has sum-
moned 30 witnesses. II is said to be the
opinion OF the defense that the Wit
nessrs viii tell 80 many contradictory
stories that either acquittal or disa-
greement VIII result.
