This action forces trial of Prof. Me-

sembly of 1888, on an overture from the
presbytery of Pittsburg.

overture, nor did he follow at all the
Specifications made In the resolution
adopted last month.
The Pittsburg presbytery, In complain

its authority as divine rule OF faith and

Case of Prosecution In the Trial Of
Roland ID. M0Ifneux.
NEW YORK, Jan. s.-The develop
of Roland B. Molineux for the murder
Of Mrs. Katherine j. Adams brought the
hope that the prosecution would get
through with presenting evidence before
the end OF the present week. Three wit
nesses gave important testimony.
Morris Hermann, member of the firm
In Newark Of which 1t Is stated Mr.. Mo-
Hneux was superintendent. said that the
firm of Morris Hermann & Co. went into
the dry color business in 1896. with Mr..
Molineux as superintendent, and 1t was
upon the latter's knowledge of dry colors
and chemical recipes that they started to
work. Evidence was introduced last
week to show the ease with which
cyanide of mercury, the poison which Is
alleged to have killed Mrs. Adams, could
be produced by the combination of dry
celors.
Edwin B. Hay, Of Washington. testified
as an expert In handwriting. He gave
1t as his opinion that the letters signed
Barnet" and Cornish" and the adj
mitted handwritfngs were written by the
same person. He also expressed his opin-
lon that the admitted handwritings and
disputed writings in the Barnet" and
Cornish" letters, and the poison pack
age address were all written by the same
man. and that man was the prisoner at
the bar.
Alfred T. Graham. paying teller at the
