SAID YOUNG WAS MURDERED.
witness Made Dramatic Assertion
at Patterson Trial.

NEW YORK.. April 2G. Caesar
Young was murdered was the dra-
matte declaration of Coroner'S PhNsi-
clan DR.. Philip O'lIanlon Il few min
utes before the trial of Nan Patterson
was adjourned for the day. Recorder
Gotf. the jury, the spectators. attorneys
for he defense and prosecution and
especially the eirlish prisoner hung
upon the words of the witness with in
tense interest. 1t was perhaps the
most sensational utterance which had
come from the witness chair since the
beginning of the trial.
DR.. O'lanlon expressed this opinion
after a grlelling cross examination by
Abraham Levy. counsel for the de
Tense. Nainly the lawyers had tried Ia
make the physician who performed the
autopsy upon Young's body admit that
The case might have been one of sui
eide.
Two other very important statements
were made 10y witnesses during the
day.
one was made by Fredcrirk Mi
chacls. the "abman who drove Young
and Miss Patterson in his hanson on
the morning OF the tragedy. He SAID
thai; nfteen seconds elapsed from the
time he heard the shot and when the
accused Young wOnIan pushed Mp the
Trap and directed him to drive to Il
drug store. Pressed by Il juror t" rX-
plain why he had not looked into the
cab. Michaels said he was afraid he
Iould he shot if he did so.
William Stcmm, Jr., the young man
who was the first witness to the trag
EDDY and who conducted the cab and its
occupants to the hospital. made an
other statement. which is regarded as
important for the defense.
ON cross examination Mr.. Levy tried
10 learn from the witness how Miss
Patterson conducted herself. Stcmm
said that to him it appeared she want
ed to cry. but seemed afraid or aSham-
ed to do so.
You were present when she was left
with the body of Caesar Young, were
YOU not asked Mr.. Levy.

What did she do while you We're
there"
she flung herself on her knees and
cried: oh. Frank, what made you:
How could you do it,"
You did not testify to that 1T the
last trial."

When the trial WAS resumed there
was the usual crush at the courtroom
door and a horde of the curious assem-
bled on Center and Elm streets to see
the young IN cross the Bridge OF
Signs.
Polio" Captain Sweeney WAS one of
the important witnesses called early
in the proceedings.

Reports Not Credited.
NO DECISIVE BATTLE

ST. PETERSBURG, April 26.-Ad
miralty circles are coming TO accept
the view that there will be no great ol
general action between the fleets OF
Russia and Japan for some time. bias
ing their belief on strategic and tactic.
al reasons, which incline Admiral To.
go 10 avoid Il decisive action until he
has made every effort to demoraliZJ
the Russian fleet by torpedo attacks
and Interference with transports by his
cruiser division.
The admiralty last evening secuted
the reports that engagements have al
ready occurred. pointing out the great
distance separating the places where
the dispatches originated, aud a naval
staff captain declared that reports
from English sources should not only
be doubted, but even mistrusted.
The probability of a sortie by the
Nladiyostok squadron in an attempt tC
join Admiral Roiestvensky is disctrSsea
by the Razyedchik, a military weekly
paper, which confirms the report that
the three cruisers GrOmobui. ROsSid
and Bogatyr have been repaired and
that Nladiyostok harbor is free from
ice and comments on this accession of
strength to R~oiestyeusky. The paper
also intimateS that there is Il po>sihil-
ity that Vice Admiral Nchogatoff may
await a second reinforcing squadron
and expresses the opinion that Roicst-
vensky will noW proceed as rapidly as
possible to N~ladivostok.
