THE HAMS TRIAL.

Flushing. ~ Y. April 23.-Captain
Peter Hams may be put on the wit
ness stand by the defence in his trial
for the killing of William e. Annis for
the express purpose of revealinato the
jury his mental condition. Announce
ment of such a possibility was made by
attorneys for the defence today prior
to the opening of the fifth day Of the
trial before Justice Garretson in the
supreme court here.
The prisoners lawyers declare that
he has no intelligent comprehension
Of the nature of the proceedings in
which he is playing such an important
part and John F. Mcintyre, for the de-
fence, said that if he found difficulty
in inducing Capt. Hams to take the
stand he might even place him in evil
dence as an exhibit in the case, tagged
and identified as such on the court
record like any other exhibit.
With seven jurors in the box, the
work of selecting the other five men
was resumed when court opened today.
No additional jurors We're secured

ALLEGED MURDERERs FREE.

Andover, N. B., April 23.-The trial
OF Sandy Murray and Andrew Hatch,
on charge of completely in the murder
of Paddy" Green, the Montreal pedlar,
near here last December, ended
abruptly today. Sosicitor General
Mcleod announced that there were
discrepancies in the stories of Tony
Arosha and Leon Sepepil, the two
Italians under sentence of death for
the murder of Green. He stated that
he deemed it the duty of the crown
to abandon the prosecution as corrob-
grafton of the evidence Of a conspiracy
to kill Green was unobtainable. He
added that both men were self-con-
fessed perjurers and unworthy of con-
fidence. This course was decided upon
at conference among the five counsels
connected with the case.
Judge Mcleod said he agreed with
the crown prosecutors announcement
and considered that it was the sole
course advisable to pursue as the evil
dence of Arosha and Seppepil was I'M
satisfactory unless sufficient proof Of
allegation was produced The jury
then found a verdict of not guilty
against Murray and the Hatch broth
ers and his honor discharged the men
from custody.
1t was ordered that the $1,000 stolen
from Green's pack and recovered be
claimed by the sheriff until delivered
through an order from the Judge to
Green's relatives. -,~

TWO TONS OF DYNAMITE
To Be Exploded Today to Break the
Niagara Ice Jam.

Youngstown, n. Y, April 23.-If the
1000 pounds of dynamite to be exploded
in single charge tomorrow are pow
erlcss to launch the giant mass of ice
still anchored to the sand bar at the
mouth of the Niagara river, the glacier
will lie there in the sun until it melts.
After the last ounce of the explosive
on hand this afternoon had been de-
voted to puveriZing one section of the
Jam, Engineer H. A. Kunze declared
that the situation had resolved itself
into conditions for a supreme effort.
The ton Of dynamite which came in
from Niagara Falls early this evening,
and the second ton which will be sent
down the river road in automobiles to-
morrow morning will all be divided in
to IS bundles. sunk into as many holes
outlining a huge semi-circle across the
ice and exploded simultaneously by a
special battery to be sent from Buff
falo. 1t is expected that the force of
the explosion will either send an ice
berg of many acres sailing down the
lake or break up the ice so that the
force of the stream can easily bear it
away.
There is still enough ice in the gorge
to put all the lower regions in cold
storag e.' observed Mr. KunZe at the
close of the days work. But we have
accomplished just what we set out to
do-tO open q channel in such a way
as to relieve the pressure of the water
in the upper river and thereby to re-
ducn the danger of the ice all going
out in d mass. I think the danger is
past, but we wish to clear the outlet
of the river SO that the ice as it gradu-
ally breaks can float away without in
reference"
