to the house, causing the death of

TEsTIFIEs AoAINoT NAN

Coroner's Physician Cha ges His opln.
ion That Young Committed Suicide.
New York. April 26.-Perhaps the
most interesting development in the
testimony in the trial OF Nan Patter-
son. charged with the murder of
Caesar Young, came when Coroner's
Physician OHanlon took the witness
stand for the prosecution and said in
reply to questions that he had changed
his opinion that Young had committed
suicide.
Dr. OHanlOn performed the autopsy
on Young's body In his testimony he
said: MY present opinion is not the
opinion l formerly expressed to Cor
oner Brown"
The counsel for the defense. Lawyer
Levy, asked ehe doctor: Did you re-
port this case to Coroner Brown as
one of suicide?"
When DR.. OHanlon replied in the
affirmative, Mr. Levy asked: DO you
now say that in your best Judgment it
is a case of suicide?"
mo, won't say that"
DIDN'T you say so once!" was
asked.
Il did. but I think now It is a case
for the jury to decide. thought at the
time that I detected powder marks on
the hands of Caesar Young"
The scenes on West Broadway,
where the shooting took place, were
gone over by witnesses, and the cab
driver who was on the box when
Young was shot was on the stand, but
the testimony did not differ materially
from that at the previous trial. When 1
Frederick Michaels, the cab driver,
was asked why he did not look in the
cab when he heard the shot fired, he /
replied: 1T wasn't my place. Suppose
had looked in and got shot"

Explosion of Gases On Battleship
Badly Burns Three Men.
Pensacola, Fla, April 25. - "Flare
back" or explosion Of gases, on the
battleship Maine recently caused the
injury of three men on that vessel.
This fact did not become known until
the ship came into harbor and began
coaling. It then leaked out that the
flare back" had occurred while the
vessel was on the target range, badly
burning three men in one of the tur-
rets. 1t is asserted that a catastrophe
similar to that of the Missouri a year
ago was narrowly averted. The flare
back" which is one of the breads Of
the men Of the navy, occurred a few
days after rthe Maine went on the tar
get range, and is the second to occur
since the vessels have been target
practicing. It is explained that gases
had formed in the breech of the gun
and that when another charge was
fred the flare back" occurred, being
caused by some particles Of burning
powder or covering not having left the
muzzle of the gun. The three men are
on the sick list, but their injuries are
not serious

MOSQUITO Bills.

The mosquitoes, which during the
fore part Of the summer have not
been at all troublesome, notwith-
standing the abundance of moisture,
commenced last week, however, to
present their little bills with a
recklessness and persistence becom-
ing the most aggressive and hard
hearted collector. Since the early
days when they made life a burden
for the new settler and his horses
and cattle during a short period in
the summer, we have not seen them
as ferocious as they have been dur.
ing the. past few days. But their
time is short, as a slight frost will
put them out of business.
