EiouUence Not Wanted.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
A New York daily recently attempted tc
poke fun at a Southern lawyer who had
made an eloquent speech in one of the
courts of the metropolis
According to this newspaper, the judges
jury and citizens generally of the en-
lghtened and cultured North are so pure
ly intellectual that they can only be con-
WINGED or moved by facts, figures and log
ic. They care nothing for sentiment and
laugh at what is called eloquencc.
The New York editor is talking nom
sense. Why do Northerners turn out to
hear Ingersoll Ingalls, Depew, Talmage
and Dixon? 1t is because these men are
orators and not because of their facts,
figures and arguments.
Perhaps some styles of eloquence are at
a discount in New York, but the really ell
oquent talker or speaker can draw an
audience anywhere on earth Even in
chilly Boston the people went crazy over
the speeches of the most eloquent Geor-
gian of his day when he visited that city
few years ago.
1t is easy for the dull drone at the desk
to say that eloquence is not wanted, but
it would be hard for him to prove it.

A VIII Contest.

To-day is the day set for the trial of
the Whitcraft VIII contest case in the
district court. The contest involves the
alleged forgery of the will of the late
Hugh Whitcraft, by the provisions of
which the entire estate was left to one
heir. Whitcraft's relatives declare the will
forgery and contest 1t on that ground.
1t is probable that there will be a large
number of handwriting exper"s. who will
offer their testimony in evidence for the
one side or the other. 1t is possible.
however, that the whole business may
be disposed of on motion which one
side is said to be prepared to make as
soon as the case is called. The estate is
valued at about $4,000.

INQUEST TODAY.
Coroner Will Inquire Into the Cause of
Robert Hamilton's Death.

coroner VIII Inquire Into the Cause OF
Robert Hamiltons Death.
The post-mortem examination upon the
body of Robert Hamilton. the man who
died on Saturday at st. AIMS hospital,
and whose death is attributed to gun
shot wound inflicted by James Santi, was
held yesterday afternoon.
The examination was merely formal and
was made In order that the exact cause
of death could be proved by the prosecu-
ton.
The inquest upon the body by the cor
oner will be held to-day at $3.50 o'clock in
the court room of Judge Kennedy The
coroner's jury, it will be remembered,
was impanelled on Saturday afternoon
and after viewing the body at the under
taking rooms adjourned until to-day.
1t is not known whether the witnesses
who will be brought forward at to-day's
inquest will be permitted to testify to all
they know, or whether their testimony
will be limited to that which relates only
to the cause Of death. The testimony
that will be introduced at the coroner's
inquest to-day will doubtless be consid-
cred as competent basis for the examina-
tion of witnesses at the trial in the dis
trict court. For this reason it is proba-
Bile that testimony introduced will be
none other than that which will establish
the actual cause of death
The arraignment of Santi is set for
o'clock to-day at which time he will be
brought before Judge Boand and plead
either guilty or not guilty to the charge
of murder in the first degree.

consideration of the currency bill, be-

of the order the general debate will
continue until Friday. On Saturday
amendments may be offered under the
five minute rule, and on the following
Monday the vote will be taken. The
Democrats, Populists and Silverites
presented a solid front against the
adoption of the resolutions, and every
Republican voted for 1t. Mr.. Richard
son, leader Of the minority, taunted
some of the majority leaders with their
change of front In coming out for the
gold standard, but Mr.. Grosvenor and
Mr.. Cannon good naturedly replied that
they had learned something with ad-
yancing years.

the other bills introduced were: To pre-
vent monopolies and trusts and for the
free coinage of gold and silver; admit

THE NANTICOkE STRIKE.



the Second Day.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Dec. 9.--The strik-
ing miners at Nanticoke are now anxi-
ously waiting to see what action the
miners employed by the Susquehanna
Coal company at Shamokin and Mount
Carmel will take. The strikers feel
that a sympathetic strike upon the
part of their brethren in the Shamokin
region would bring the company to
terms. Word was received at Nanti-
coke yesterday that Organizer Fahey,
CT the United Mine Workers, had can
celled his call for meeting Of the
district conference, as there was
probability that the business men of
Nanticoke would settle the strike and
there would be no need of calling out
the miners at Mt. Carmel and Shamo-
kin. There is no likelihood, however,
that the business men of Nanticoke
will be successful. 1t was given out
that their negotiations with the COM
pany and the strikers had fallen
through and that the strike was des-
tined to run its course. 1t is no nearer
settlement than on the second day OF
the long strike

A MOLINEUX WITNESS CAPTURED
Lured Into New York State and
PLACED Under Arreat.

Lured Into New York State and
Placed Under Arrest.
New York, Dec. 9.-Several interest
ing points developed yesterday in con-
nection with the trial of Roland B.
Molineux for the murder of Mrs.
Adams. First there was the capture
of an important witness for the prose-
cution. This was Mamie Mullands,
the young woman who cared for Moli-
neux's rooms at Newark. Through
ruse sheswas induced to cross the state
line from New Jersey to Suffern, N. Y,
and was arrested and brought to this
city. 1t is said she will be placed on the
stand and compelled to testify that Mol
ineux was accustomed to use the now
famous blue paper surmounted by the
three interlaced crescents.
The legal battle ragged around the
question of expert testimony and the
admissibility of handwriting when mot
disputed" Attorney Weeks fought gal
lantly for his client, but in the end the
prosecution triumphed, the recorder
saying that the court would be forced
to consider the exhibits as being in the
handwriting of the defendant unless
the testimony of Expert Kinsley, who
testified that in his opinion Molineux
wrote the address on the poison pack
age, should be impeached or contra
dicted by the defense in some manner.
1t seemed day CT victories for the
prosecution.
