There Was Mourning In Far Samoa.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. Advices from Tutuila, island of Samoa, have been received by Assistant Secretary Hackett. On Sunday, Oct. 27, service was held in memory of President Me Kinley. Lieutenant J. l.. Jayne. com manding, reports that on his visit to the island of Manua he learned that memorial services had been held there on receipt of the news of the presi dents death. '.The natives generally" says Lieutenant Jayne, seemed very much impressed with the event. They wore mourning badges at the memorial service. One of the high chiefs ex- pressed the desire of the people Of his two counties to hold lagi, which is the Samoan way of celebrating the death of high chief. It consists of feasting. carousing and idleness for an extended period. Lieutenant Jayne suggested that instead of this method the people do something for their own good and advised them to build me- morial road. The chief, after consult ing with his people, informed Lieuten- ant Jayne that they would do as be had desired.

PITTSBURG, Pa. January 16.-The
Texas gusher is still gushing and con-
tinues to be the subject of discussion
among oil men to the exclusion of all 9TH
ers.The fact that the credit balance mar
ket did not change to-day was accepted
as evidence that the enormous output of
the Texas monster was losing its influ-
ence as competitor with Pennsylvania
petroleum. This conclusion was not
reached on account of decrease in the
flow, but rather on account of it being
a very inferior grade of oil. Col j. M
Guffey received a telegram from John Ga
ley this afternoon. stating that there was
no change in the production of the
spouter.

MARITANS.
THEIR STORIES ALL ALIKE.
THE EVIDENCE ALL IN AND ARGU-
MENTS WILL BE MADE AT
TO-DAY'S SESSION

Counsel for the defense in the Jennie
Bosscnieter murder trial to-day prac-
tically closed their case-jWilliam A.
Death, Walter L. McAlister and An
drew Campbell, the three men on trial
for the murder, went upon the stand
in their own behalf and told their YER
sions of the events of the night Jen-
ME Bosschieter met her death while in
their company. They told the same
story practically and their testimony
varied but little as to details. The
plea by defendants counsel was a gem
eral and specific denial of all the ac-
cusations made. He opened with an
attack on the moral character of the
dead girl and claimed that the pris-
oners were in no way responsible for
her death. He denied that she had
been drugged, and he denied that she
had been ill-treated and assaulted
-McAlister, Death and Campbell were
each on the stand Their testimony
was on the line that they were acting
on a generous impulse when they took
the girl from the saloon to the hack
They claimed that she was 'jolly
drunk" for time in the back room Of
SAILS saloon, said she was joking and
laughing after the first drink; that she
became ''dopey" after taking absin-
the
And Then Became Dead Drunk.
They had thought drive in the fresh
air would do her good and had taken
her across the river out into the coun-
try. The assault was denied. They
had lifted the girl out of the hack be-
cause she was sick and they had con-
Quoted themselves like humanitarians
in their el4orts to bring her back to
her senses. They had -aKen her to the
brook to obtain water. They would
nave taken her home after she was
dead but when they reached the neigh
borhood they saw persons about.
They were frightened at the dead
girl and did not want to get mixed
up in the scandal. The story as told
by each appeared plausible, explain
atory and reasonable but confiicted
with the testimony of the hackman
and the alleged confessions OF Death
and Campbell as introduced by the
State and admitted as evidence The
State, which was beaten yesterday in
the effort to introduce the confession
said to have been made by Campbell,
succeeded in getting it all in even in
more detailed manner than would
have been possible yesterday.
Tomorrow the summing up will oc-
cur and the case will probably be sent
to the jury about shutdown, although
it may be that Judge Dixon will defer
the charge to the jury until Friday.

THE EVIDENCE IN DETAIL.

PATERSON, n. J., January 16.-In-
terested crowds to-day filled the APP
proacheS to and from the room in
which the court of Oyer and Terminer
is sitting for the trial of three of the
alleged murderers of Jennie Bosschiet-
er, the mill girl. The State having
rested its case last night, the days
proceedings began with the presenta-
ton by counsel of the case for the de-
Tense. OF the three accused men Death
most showed the effects of the strain
through which they are passing and
detection and extreme nervousness
We're depicted in his countenance and
movements. McAlister, on the other
hand, was comparatively self-possess-
ed, but Campbell was evidently troub-
led and anxious. There is a POSSIBLE
ity of the defense closing its case to-
day and the trial being concluded to-
morrow with me summing up and
the judges charge.
zen Judge Dixon opened court
counsel for the accused asked that
Sculthorpe, the hack driver be re-
called so that he might be confronted
with the record of his conviction of
a crime Of which he had previously
been found guilty.
Judge Dixon Denied the Reaue.t
on the ground that the point sought
to be made against Sculthorpe was i'm
material. Michael Dunn then deliver
ed his address opening the case for the
defense. He made mention of the
grief into which the family of Jennie
Bosschieter had been plunged by the
tragedy and added that the case was
also sad on account Of the youth OF
the prisoners and because il had
brought such disgrace upon their fam
lilies. Counsel promised to prove that
the death of Jennie Bosschieter was
not caused in the commission of
criminal assault, and also that the.
charge of wilful murder could not
stand against the defendants.
Mr. Dunn proceeded with a MARIA
tive Of the events preceding the death
OF Jennie Bosschieter, the purpose of
IL being to show that the meeting of
the four men, McAlister, Campbell.
Death and Kerr was not prearranged
and that the girl made the first ad-
yances that opened the way for the
meeting at Saals' saloon.
In the saloon, according to counsel,
the girl drank Freely. taking cock
tails and abscinthe until she became
drowsy. Then she was escorted from
the saloon TO the hack, McAlister and
Death walking on either side of her
She was not carried, the attorney said.
The narrative of counsel for the de-
Tense proceeded with the ride in the

She had become unconscious and the
