Buffalo, N. T., Sept. 22.-The
most important development in
the Czolgosz case today was tho
announcement that no poison had
been founl on the bullets or the
revolver with which the anarchist
assassinated President Mckinley.
Chemical and meteorological ex-
aminations were made by both

poison was used by the murder.
An examination to determine the
exact mental condition of the
prisoner was made in the Erie
county Jail this afternoon by Dr..

for the defense by the Erie Coun-

Allen Again Convicted.
Fer Second Time Found Guilty
of Henry Tramuslps Murder.
Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Greenvllls. Sept. 21. One of
the most pl otrscted and interest
ing cases at the present term of
the criminal court was that against
Walter Allen, charged with the
killing of Henry Trammell on the
4th of May last. This case was
tried at the June term and tho de-
fendant was convicted of murder,
but another trial was granted up
ON tsachnical grounds. The killing
took place in the neis b borhood of
Marydell, in the upper section of
the county, and the defence relied
for accquittal upon two grounds,
namely, tha+ the deceased had
made an improper proposal in the
afternoon to Mrs. Walter Allen
and that whom the shooting occur
red that night it wa. in sslf-de-
fence.
Mrs. Allen testified at beth
trials to the circumstances under
which Tran nell made the insult
ing proposal to her when she was
unprotected in her own house.
lilo had gone there with mes
sage from Allen to get pint of
liquor, which was given to him,
and he then made the proposal
which was resented by Mrs. Allen,
and which Trammell repeated,
drawing his pistol and taking hold
OF her arm, saying she would be
compelled to yield, when she
screansG and left the house. This
is the story told to her husband
and on the stand. Allen took his
gun and went after Trammsll, and
in giving an account Of the shoot
ing he declared emphatically tha,
he shot Trammsll in self defence,
believing his life was in danger.
The juriss in both instances re
turned vsrdicts Of guilty with
recommendation to mercy.
The case was tesup this week on
Tuesday afternoon and 4 Jury was
not smpannslsd until WsdnSsday
afternoon, when the testimony be-
gan and continued until FRIDAY
at noon.

SCHOOL EXERCISES.
Singing Of the Dead Presidents s
Favorite Hymns the Feature
Of the Observances.

In pursuance with the resolution
passed by the board of control at it's
last meeting, all the public schools
were opened for a brief period ycstcr-
day morning for the purpose of con-
ducting memorial services in honor Of
the dead president and thus inculcate
IN the minds of the rising generation
a respect for those who are chosen by
the people to ill positions of public
trust.
Brief exercises were conducted in
each school room No general uniform
programme had been arranged by SUI
pcrintendpnt of Schools Howell and
each teacher was accordingly left to
arrange her own programme The cX-
erCises in the majority Of the schools
wcrh OF a simple nature and consisted
of the recitation Of the Lords prayer,
the singing of Nearer My God to
Thee and America" and the read
ing of biography of the late prcSi-
dent. telling of his rise from a strug-
Cling young attorney to the highest
position of trust in the gift of the
people.
The exercises at the high school were
of more elaborate nature. Tho
thousand pupils were convened at the
usual hour in the auditorium. Seated
upon the stage, the rear of which was
drapcd in black. were Prof. JoSlin. the
principal, and the members of the
faculty. together with Superintendent
of schools Howell and Captain w. A..
May. school controller from the Ninth
ward. All three of these gentlemen
made brief addresses.
Superintendent Howell paid bcauti-
full tribute to the dead president whom
he said would always rank in history
as one of the best men America ever
produced He devoted himself largely
to resume Of his personal virtues and
his voice broke and he became deeply
affected as he told of his loving care
and devotion to his wife aud of his
sad but beautiful Christian death.
Prof. Josin spoke along similar lines
and expressed the hope that young
Americans all over the land would
seek to emulate this simple yet great
man, who gave up his life for his
country.
Captain May. after paying his per-
SOnal tribute to President Mckinley $
memory. said that he believed the as
sasslnation might have the effect Of
turning the attention of tn" American
people to something more noble and
enduring than the wild scramble after
wealth and power the virus Of which
seems to have infected the blood of
people of all classes.
If a Divine Providence ordained the
deed, he said, it might bc with this
end in view, and the terrible deed
might be the pivotal point on which
tn" nation may swing into swectc,
ana a purer atmosphere. He com
pared the gloom into which the nation
has been cast to the dark clouds i'm
the sky on a stormy day and this hope
of better things and a noblcr national
life to the rainbow suddenly seen in
the midst Of the sombrc clouds.

doing as well as any woman could do
