The Trial of Nelson.

There were two sensational, turns to
the Nelson arson case Yesterday. The
defense offered the testimony of James
Burke, an emplore of the defendant, to
prove that Neisia was in Washington
on the night Of the fire, and while driv-
ing to Jackson City first learned of the
burning by seeing in the sky the refec-
ton of the conhagratiOn, while they
were fully mile away. The counsel for
the defendant also created a momentary
furry of excitement by declaring that a
conspiracy existed among the other al
legged gamblers to send Nelson to the
penitentiary.
The counsel for the defense sought to
have admitted the deposition of color
ed man named Henry Williams, in
which Frank Foster, Nelson's former
partner and the man who swore out the
warrant on which Nelson was arrested,
is charged with having attempted to
bride Williams to give damaging testi-
mOny before the grand jury.
The defense rested its case at 2 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, Nelson not having
been called to the stand. Six witnesses
were put on the stand in behalf of the
prisoner yesterday, some of whom testi-
fed to having seen Nelson at certain
places after the fire was well under way.
A large part of the time was consumed
in the argument of legal points regard
ing the admission of evidence.
The court took a recess from l2:4O
until 80 p. M. yesterday. The next
hour was occupied in the preparation of
a bill of exceptions to the rulings of the
Judge by the counsel for the defense. 1t
was decided at 2:40 O'Clock p. m. to
adjourn till 9 o'clock this morning, as
Mr.. Blrke, for the prosecution, was
slightly indisposed.
The testimony in rebuttal was begun
this morning.
Court reassembled shortly after 3
o'clOck this morning, when evidence in
rebuttal was taken by the Common
wealth. After all the testimony h'd
been taken arguments upon the instcuc-
tons to the jury were heard. The case
will be given to the jury tomorrow.
The impression still prevails that Mel
son will not be convicted by this jury.

whose home is at 5S York Place, Nor
folk, made two attempts at suicide this
morning on the steamer Norfolk Of the
Norfolk and Washington Steamboat
Company, which arrived here at an early
hour this morning. His first attempt
was made by endeavoring to Jump over

balanced and that during certain spells
he is not responsible for his actions. He

alluded to III the Gazette several days
