Travelling Man Expired at the WHOM Hotel
Last Monday Night.
George Mooney, a travelling sales
man for ID. c. Burdick, OF Oshkosh,
was found dead i'm his room at the
Union Hotel last Tuesday. Mooney
had been IN the city about a
week and complained Of not feeling
well. lie was afraid that he was com
ing down with pneumonia and Sunday
morning called i'm DR.. A. M. Darling
who gave him some medicine and he
seemed to recover. Monday he sat
around the hotel most Of the day,
taking a walk 60 the bridge and back
I'm the afternoon. That evening he
attended the play at the opera house
and upon returning talked a short
time with Landlord Mccormick in
the office. When the show people
came in, Mr.. Mccormick left him to
wait on his guests and when he re-
turned he found that Mooney had
retired.
There were many boarders at the
hotel and nothing was thought OF his
non-appearance next day until
late in the afternoon when the
chambermaid reported that she could
not get into MONEYS room to make
up the bed. 1t was supposed that
Mooney was out at one OF the loca-
tlons but the clerk thought that he
would investigate and so got a step
ladder and looked over the transom.
He saw Mooney lying on the bed and
reported TO the officers who broke
open the door and found that the
man was dead. His death was appar-
emily a peaceful one, due TO heart
failure or some kindred trouble. The
remains were taken to the undertake
ing rooms of l.. A. Henry and pre-
pared for burial.

THE ILL effects that the long session
Of the constitutional convention is
having are made apparent every day.
bat 80 far there seems to be no end OF
the session In sight; indeed one OF the
members said q few days since that
from present appearances the conven-
ton might continue for twenty years.
During the summer cases In county
courts ell over the State were continued
on account OF the attorneys being 10
Richmond in some way or other con-
neoted with the convention; the same
was true 10 the circuit courts; yea
terdsy the Court Of Appeals adjourned
for the same reason and now the legis-
lature Is considerably hampered by the
convention being in session and using
the hall of the House of Delegates. Il
seems that everything must give way
to the convention but so far the oonven-
ton has done little for the good OF the
State.

The Bonine Trial,

Washington, Dec. 7.-Wnen the pro.
ceedings were resumed 10 the BONNIE
case this morning., Attorney Douglss
stated hat be desired to withdraw for
the time beirg the question that was
uuder consideration when court adj
journed yesterday, and to proceed with
the examination OF DR.. Carr along diff
fereot lines. Witness was asked II be
had made any measurements Of Mrs.
Bonnie, and be replied that be had and
recited the result OF large number Of
measurements. DR.. Carr wss asked
From the description of the hip wouDo
received by Ayres. can you tell the g
lance from the point of the wound to
tue bottom of the foot ?" Mr.. Gould
objected, but the question was admitted
and DR.. Carr gave as his opinion that
the distance was about thirty-eight In
ches.
A long controversy ensued when Mr..
Douglas put to DR.. Carr, a question In
tended to prove the fallacy of the gov
| erDment's contention that the wouuds
OF Ayres were inflicted without q strug-
gle. The question was: "Whst would
be the height Of the muzzle # he weap
on from the floor II the party receiving
the wound In the hip was In standing
or walking position ?"
DR.. Carr had, prior to the question,
| stated that he could tell by practical
means the height within one inch OF the
muzzle of the pistol from the floor, u
be knew the height of the person re-
celving the wouud. The government
objected to the question OF Inc defense
on the ground that q difference OF al
inch would make decided difference
in the angle of the wound. The argu-
ment of Mr.. Douglass In reply to this
l OBJ lection was dra " to great length aud
Justice Anderson excused the jury dur
ing it, Mr.. Gould making q facetious
remark to the effect that be wished ne,
too, might be excused.
Mrs. Bonnie, under the strain of six
months Imprisonment and long discus
sion OF her attorney regarding the sd-
instability OF the evidence OF DR.. Carr,
sat seemingly as unmoved as duriOE
the opening days OF the trial. HeE
hands are generally clasped, holding
kerchief and pair OF gloves, the only
thing approaching emotion being
slight pucker between the eyes. Al
I the words OF the District Attorney thai
the jury would be expected to apply
the theory OF murder 10 the facts If the
Government proved its contention, Mrs.
Bonnie did not change her expression
. 10 the least. Mr.. Gould had not
finished bis reply TO Mr.. Douglass's
argument on the question at issue when
the court took the noon day recess.
O1ing to the extended length Of the
argument resulting from the question,
out by the defense 10 DR.. Carr, the jury
6oally retired until Monday morning.
Cbis DEPRESSION may continue the case
day longer, and 1t may be Wednesday
or Thursday of next week before the
closing arguments are made to the jury.

THE REPORT of the 18th milan canal
com mission sent to Congress few days
ago, as anticipated, favors the Nicara-
qua route and makes an estimate OF
slS9 1854 ,062 as the total cost Of CON-
struction of the canal through Nicats-
qua. The estimated cost Of the Panama
route Is $14S, 23S 1853. The commission
values the work done at $40, 900, 900.
The report says the Panama route lie
feasible 40 a sea level canal, while the
Nicaragua route must be by locks.
The Nicaragua route has no natural
harbors at either end, but hsrbors may
be constructed. Harbors already ex-
let at each end OF the Panama route.
Aud despite these statements the com
missioners recommend the longer and
more expensive route. The construction
OF the canal will be one OF the most
open and gigantic steals 10 the history
of the country and already the govern
ment has paid out one million dollars
to deirsy the expenses of the commits
sioners who made such report. But
the American people like to be hum
plugged.
