MoLINEUX TO TESTIFY.
Famous Case Nearing an End-Judge
Denies Motion

NEW YORK, Oct, 30.-Counsel for the
defense in the Molineux trial moved today
that the court direct the jury to acquit the
defendant on the ground that the evidence
was insufficient Justice Lambert denied
the motion.
Former Gov. Black, in moving Molineuxs
acquittal. said the evidence given was not
sufficient to warrant a conviction: that
there was no evidence that the defendant
had ever had in his possession cyanide of
mercury or the bottleholder in which the
poison was sent; that he did not mail the
poison package. and that there was no
proof whatever connecting the defendant
with the crime charged.
At the close OF Mr. Blacks argument JUS
tfce Lambert said:
I will deny the motion for the pre- sent,
and will hear all the evidence"
Mr.. Black then asked the curt to permit
him to make his opening address to the jury
tomorrow and Justice Lambert acauiesced
declaring court adjourned until tomorrow
Mr.. Black said his opening address would
be very short.
After the adjournment Mr.. Black was
asked if Molineux will take the stand in his
own behalf. .,s .s-..c.
There is strong likelihood that we shall
call Mr. Molneux," he said, but mot hing
has been decided

ACCOMMODATIONS INADEQUATE.
More Room Needed for Sailors on Re-
ceiving Ships.

The Navy Department has been seriously
disturbed of late by the inadequacy of the
accommodations for sailors on the receiving
ships at New York and elsewhere. When
the old Vermont was condemned the Co
lumbia was substituted, but she did not af
ford the same accommodations. With the
growing demands of the navy in the way
OF enlisted men the accommodations aboard
the Columbia have been very much over
taxed, and a good deal of complaint has
been made to the New York yard.
The chief of the bureau of navigation
made an earnest plea in his latest report
to Congress in favor of the erection Of COM
modious barracks at the New York yard,
and at one or two other points in place of
the insanitary and inadequate receiving
ships, but the necessary authorization was
withheld. 1t is now said, however, that
considerable relief is expected in the near
future by the transfer to the navy of some
of the transports for which the army has
no longer use. These, however, are on the
Pacific coast and it will be several months
before they can be brought to New York.
Meanwhile temporary relief from the
congestion on the Columbia Is expected to
result through the heavy drafts that will
be made upon the receiving ship for men
for the squadron Of evolution going south
ward.

city whereby A. w. Mellon and r. B. Mel
Ion became possessors of one of the most
valuable sites on Lake Erie for harbor. a
railroad charter and a land company. with
options lying around the mouth of Elk

This land lies only short distance from
the lines of the Erie and Pfttsburg division

only valuable harbor site left in Pennsyl
