IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
NEW EVIDENCE INTRODUCED IN
 TERRIBLE TRIAL.
Next Hearing in Bennett wilI Case to be Held Monday Evsning-TwO JudG- ments in Civil Cnses by Judge Bishop Other Court News.

The defense in the trial of Michael Terrible, alias Michael Maroney, who is charged with taking the life of Pat rick J. Coffey, in a fight at the New Haven Gas company's plant on March 16, was taken up again in the criminal superior court yesterday. The calling in of the jury was preceded by lively argument between Attorney Goodhart of counsel for Terrible, and State Att torney Williams, which clearly showed the line of. defense which MT. Good hart will follow. It appears that the claim will be made that Coffey met his death at the hands of one Laurence, alias Larry Michaeliano, who was ar rested after the fight and held on the charge of assaulting Coffey with in tent to kill, and who skipped his bonds before the present trial was opened. Mir. Goodhart wanted testimony rela- tive to Michaeliano's alleged attack with a bar of iron on Coffey at the time of the affray. He also wanted testimony as to the missing Italians forfeiture of bonds, and said that he would prove that Michaeliano struck Coffey on the same day and moment as 1t is alleged Terrible did.
 Judge Roraback refused to admit the evidence, thus supporting Williams vigorous argument against Goodhart's s contention. The court permitted the copy of the warrant against Michaeli- ano to be admitted as an exhibit for the jury to see during the deliberation. Judge Roraback also said: MT. Good hart, you will get full benefit of the pos sibility that this Larry killed Coffey instead of the accused here, when you make your argument before the jury"
 The trial proceeded with Antonio Guarino, witness to the fight, on the stand. He added little to the testimony adduced Wenesday, but was cross-ques- toned by MT. Williams with view to showing that Fariano was not so badly damaged by Coffey that there was enough provocation for the act of Fariano's fellow countryman, Terrible. The defense continued through the af- ternoon. < Al Terrible was put on the stand in his own defense yesterday afternoon. His testimony was practically the same as Fariano's. He said that they (the Ital- ians) were working on the roof and that Coffey and some of his friends, who were at work on the ground, were throwing things up at them. Frappiano went down stairs to complain to the boss. The witness and another man followed shortly afterward. They saw Coffey standing behind door and as Fariano passed him he jumped upon him, knocked him down, and commence ed to choke him. Terrible thinking that his friend Fariano was being choked, grabbed the first thing which was in sight, which happened to be a piece of lead pipe, and tried to strike Coffey on the shoulder so that he would release his hold. Instead of this Coffey dodged the blow and it caught him on the head, causing his death. The wit ness was strictly cross examined by States Attorney Williams, but he stuck to the facts as stated.
 The hearing was then postponed un-
 til Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.

 SITUATION IN FAR EAST.
London and Paris OmcIaI In formation, However, is Opposed to Alarmist Stories.


 London. Oct. 23.-Heretofore the un- derwriters at Lloyds have taken an op- tinistic view of the situation in the Far East. Since yesterday, however, the insurance rates to the Orient, cover ing all risks if war is declared within three months, have been doubled.
 The Japanese legation reiterates to- day that there is not the slightest foundation for the Honolulu and other alarming reports of the iInminence of war between Russia and Japan. Off, cial communications received from Tokio during the last few days con- tained nothing to indicate the proba- bility of an outbreak of hostilities, nor even that hitch had occurred in the negotiations.
 The foreign office here also reiterates that it's information is opposed to the alarmist reports.
 Paris, Oct. 2S.-The Japanese legation here and the French foreign office do not believe that war between Russia and Japan is imminent. They say the negotiations continue and they predict a peaceful termination of the confer ences at Tokio.
 Dr. Montono, the Japanese minister here, made formal statement during the day, denying the report from Homo lulu of declaration of war. He said net only had there been no such declar- ation, but there was not even aserious menace of war
