AGAINST HER HUSBAND.
Mrs. Margaret Lynch Testifies Against Her Husband, the Con-
 fessed Jury Briber.

Chicago, Dec. 14.-Mrs. Margaret Lynch wife of eX-Bailiff Jas. J. Lynch, the confessed jury briber, was the star witness in the early session of the trial of Alexander Sullivan, charged with aneged conspiracy to keep Lynch from being tried for his crime. She gave the lie direct to much of her husbands testimony, on which the state had largely based is case. Mrs. Lynch has been separated from her husband for some time. She denied emphatically that Alexander Sullivan's name was mentioned either by her husband or by George P. Mur- ray on the night when Murray is said to have called on Lynch to ask him to accompany him to Sullivan's house Lynch testified, some time ago, that Murray said he came at Sullivan's be- hest and that Sullivan wanted to send Lynch to Canada in order to avoid be- ing tried for jury bribing. Mrs. Lynch further testified, in contradic- tion to Lynch. that Lynch had ex. pected Murray to call on the night in question.

MRS. BONNIE ACQUITTED.
The Washington Jury Declared Her Not Guilty of the Murder of James
 Seymour Ayres, Jr.

Washington, Dec. 14.--The jury in nine, charged with the murder of James Seymour Ayres, Jr., in the Kenmore hotel, in this city, on the night of May 13, last evening returned a verdict of Not guilty" and the defendant was set at liberty. Such a conclusion of the trial was general ly expected, the popular impression here being that, from the evidence submitted, the prosecution had failed to prove it's case against Mrs. Bonine. The jury was out less than five hours, retiring a few minutes after four o'clock in the afternoon, and report ed their verdict shortly before nine o'clock last evening.
 The attendance in the court room when the jury returned was limited to the members of the bar, represen- tatives of the press and the employees of the court.
 There was some little attempt at demonstration of approval, but this was quickly suppressed by Judge Anderson, who had previously warned the spectators against manifestations of any character. Mrs. Bonine was in court at the time, and with her were her husband and her two boys and several of her relatives, all of whom have shown their sympathy for her by their constant attendance dur ing the long trial.
 The jury was discharged and Mrs. Bonine and her friends left the court house by bagk door.
 The trial of Mrs. Bonine had been in progress for almost four weeks, and attracted more attention than any trial before the local courts in years. Extraordinary interest was caused at the time young Ayres was killed, because of the mystery sur rounding the case, until the state ment made by Mrs. Bonine of her part in the tragedy while the cor oner's inquest was in session. She said she was the only person in the room when young Ayres was shot, and that he was killed in a struggle with her over the possession of revolver with which he was trying to frighten her into compliance with his demands. Mrs. Bonine had been in jail since the tragedy. She did not go on the witness stand during the trial.

 to be Discontinued.

Havana, Aug. 19.-Chief Surgeon Havard announces that the eXperi- ments in the investigation of the propagation of yellow fever, so far as these involved the mosquito test, will be discontinued. This decision was taken because one of the non- immunes who was recently bitten by an infected mosquito died of yellow fever yesterday. The man was a Spaniard, desired to become an inn mune and therefore allowed himself to be bitten by an infected mosquito.
 Another man who was bitten is also suffering from a very bad case. Both were bitten by insects which had beer set apart for the experiments of Dr. Caldas, the Brazilian expert, who has been arranging to demonstrate the al- legged efficiency of serum as pre- ventive against yellow fever.
 According to Maj. Havard, the cases due to mosquito infection prior to the latest two were light; but the matter has assumed a more danger ous form than the first experiments led the yellow fever commission to ex- Dect
