LAST DAYS TESTIMONY.
Evidence That Convinced the Jury OF
MOIineux's Guilt.

When the inquest was resumed to-day
Joseph Koch, who keeps a letter-box estab-
lishment at No. 1920 Broadway, where a
box was rented in the name of Harry Cor
nish,' was called to the witness chair. He
testified that he only once saw the man
who rented it. He gave the name of H.
Cornish Koch said he was near-sighted
and did not think he could identify the man
who rented the box. The man had never
called for mail. Koch said three pieces of
mail had arrived for Harry Cornish" a
box of Kutnow powder, a letter from drug
firm of Cincinnati and a box of capsules
Coroner Hart asked Koch if he had identi-
fled any one as Cornish. Koch said he had
not
Felix Gallagher was then called. His coun-
sell Charles Lex Brooke, protested against
Gallagher testifying because he had not
been subpoenaed. Coroner Hart directed
Gallagher to testify. Colonel Gardiner heat
edly objected to Counsel Brooke's Inter
ference" and there was a warm exchange
Gallagher said he was clerk at the New
York Athletic Club. Previous to that he
had been employed at the Knickerbocker
Athletic Club. Molineux was instrumental
in securing him his position. For the last
year they had been good friends"
Now, Mr.. Gallagher asked Mr.. Os-
borne, did you write the address on the
package OF poison that was received by Mr..
Cornish?"
NO. sir, I did not"
Joseph F. Murray chief clerk in the Cen
tral postoffice testified that the wrapper of
the omo-seltzer bottle addressed to Cor
nish had been mailed at the Broadway city
department of the general postoffice as third
or fourth-class matter.
Detective Sergeant James NJ McCafferty
was then called. He told of visit to New
ark to get a specimen of Molineux's hand
writing. He swore that Molineux had re-
fused to give it to him until he had first
consulted his counsel Mr.. Weeks. McCaf-
ecty could not get sample of Molineux'
writing until few days ago.

letter boxes at his place of business, No. 257
West Forty-seventh street, was then called.

LINCOLN WARNED THE COUNTRY

Men may laugh and make merry
over politics and all that sort of
thing, but the accumulation of
trusts and the concentration of
capital in the hands of the favored
class, as manifested in the indus
trial trust. is alarming and start
ling from any point of view, and
cannot be otherwise than danger
Gus to the liberties of the Ameri-
can people and the perpetuity of
our institutions. Abraham Lin
coin, early in his administration,
warned the country against the at
tempt to put capital above labor,
but the martyred presidents ad-
vice is set at naught by modern
republicanism in putting the dollar
above the man in its greed to cor
raj the wealth of the country in
the hands of its favorites. The
truth is, it has gone SO far in the
opposite direction of the wholesome
warning of Mr.. Lincoln that it
cannot now retrace its steps, and
the man who votes the republican
ticket believing it will undo the
wrong is bordering closely uron
the margin of imbecility and needs

better for him. Leader.

Territory StOckmen.

The following items concerning

Territory are clipped from the Texas
Stock and Farm Journal of Fort
Worth, and contains a few inter-
estlng notes:
w. E. Washington, a prominent
cattleman of Marietta, 1. T., was
here Monday.
A. L. Nail and Mart LauRhton, both

week in Fort Worth.
J. NJ. Dale of Davis and w. o.
Thompson of Marietta, II. T., were
among the visitors at the Fort Worth
stock yards Thursday.
Ed Halsell of Vinita, l. T., was
here Sunday night returning from an
extended trip through Arizona,
New Mexico and Western Texas.
W. R. Moore, formerly of this city,
but low manager of the cotton seed
oil mill at Ardmore, 1. T., was among
the visiting stockmen at the live
stock center Monday.
H. 6. Deering, a Sar Angelo cat
tleman, was in Fort Worth Wednes-
day, returning from a trip to the In
dian Territory. Mr.. Deering says

ally good and cattle are taking on
flesh very rapidly.
The receipts of hogs at the Fort
Worth stock yards Friday were 265.
Among the shippers were ]. H. Hayes
of Gainesville, Husband & Thomp-
son of Marietta and J. NJ. Dale of

WILL BE THE ISSUE.

The Nashville American cOnsid-
ers that the most significant infor-
nation which came from the meet
ing of the democratic executive
committeeman who gathered at St.
Louis to discuss democratic plans
and policies for 1900, is the state
ment of Mr.. Bryan: The trust
issue will be one of the most i'm
portant of the issues. :" The
American thinks this means,
among other things, that free sill
yer at 16 to will be relegated to
the rear and will not have a prom
inent place in the next campaign.
The Nashville contemporary adds:
Those who have followed the
drift of affairs have come to this
conclusion some time ago. The
elections of last fall proved that
free silver was a losing issue in the
west; it has almost disrupted the
democratic party in the east, and
as the South is pretty likely to be
democratic on account of the ne
gro, if no other, the natural ques-
ton was. why keep the banner of
free silver foremost advanced above
the rest? We are glad to see that
Mr.. Bryan and all democratic lead
ers are of the opinion that silver
must not be the foremost issue;
that it must be subordinated-for
that is what is meant when it is
said that it will not be the main
issue. OF course it will not be eli
minated; no one ever expected this,
but it will not be the slogan. This
fact in itself will mean that
thousands who left the party
in 1896 will be back in 1900. AS
a matter Of fact, even had free sill
yer been the foremost issue, and
had it carried the country in 1900,
still no silver legislature could
be expected, because the senate is
overwhelmingly republican for six
years to come. So, with this fact,
and the additional one that the is
sue is to be subOrdinated by the
democrats themselves. any attempt
by the republicans to make capital
and votes by picturing the demOr-
alization of business which would
follow upon free silver will be of no
avail.
All this is of great significance,
appearing, as it does, in journal
which supported the Chicago ticket
in the last campaign.

THE Fort Worth Register says:
The prompt repudiation by the
rank-and- file of the G.. A. r. OF
the slight put upon the action Of
the Southern. association which
rendered the floral wreath to be
used at Cleveland on Decoration
Day will go a long ways towards
the reinstating Of the era of good
fellowship between the North and
South. The objection of the floral
tribute representing the union of
North and South around the flag
was particularly unfortunate, in
view of the fact that the tender
came from eX-Confederates. There
are certain politicians Of the baser
sort whose continuation in power
and in the public eye depends up
on keeping alive the fires OF sec
tiOnal resentment. The rank-and-
file of the q. \. r. in the South
have demonstrated that they have
passed beyond the period Of re-
sentiment by their patriotic action
in inviting cooperation with ex-
Confederates on Decoration Day,
and IL trpatiOr the Crrave- of oil
soldiers alike to the annual baptism
of flowers. The rank-and- file OF
the North have now an opportunity
to display an equality of disinter-
ested patriotism by promptly repu-
dating the action Of the Cleveland
committee as well as the motive
which inspired the action.

THE exchanges from the Indian
Territory speak of the efforts be-
ing made to establish free public
schools. Most of the towns are
succeeding, but they have a heavy
task. Every other portion of the
United States received national
aid in support of schools. Surely
congress will not complete the or
ganization of the governments of
tribes without endowing the
schools. The people should or
ganize for the purpose of securing
what has been given to every other
state and territory within the
borders of the country.
