sideration, arc Prof Frank Daniel of

practically has made up his mind in the
matter. he will not make his reoommcn-
dation known until the board meets to-

Friends of Dr. Hedricl and of Prof.
Daniel are equally confident that the Sc
lection will fall upon one of these two

sdered to be excellent. In fact. all three
teachers have been recommended to DIR.

fronted by perplexing problem with

In Hands of Prosecutor.

The direct examination o! the prisoner
was ended yesterday afternoon shortly
after the recess for luncheon, at which
time The Stars report closed. Prosecrt
er Wendenburg launched Immediately
INTO his croSs-examination.
Redttie faced the prosecutor almost de-
Family. When he gave direct answers
they were clear-cut and decisive, but he
showed considerable skill at eva aston
where direct answers would have been
embarrassing. In the early stages of
mis- cross-examination Beattie made a
good witness for himself He admitted
without reservation his relations with
Reulah Bin!ord. and stuck to his denial
that Paul Bcattie had ever purchased a
sun his request, or even that he had
seen Paul the Thursday evening the lat
ter says arrangements for buying the
gun were made.

Fees Also Reduced.

As result of the falling of in opera
tons. the fees collected by the building
inspectors Office were correspondence re-
duced. The total revenue of the Office. il
is stated, was S3O.33i 46 as compared
with HAAS collected the year pre-
Sious.
Inasmuch the expenses Of the office
during the year amounted to S31 .3c5.25.
the fees fell considerably short of de-
fraying costs.
II DO not. however. recommend any in
crease in the schedule OF fees. says MI.
Hacker. "as the year previous the fees
exceeded the expenses of the
office by more than S5.n''. and there Is
good reason To believe that the fees in
the fiscal year 1872 will considerably ex-
coed the appropriation made for the Of
flee for that year.

The report recommends that funds
heretofore allotted the Office for the test

and methods of construction whoa are
made from tine TO time at points outside

Mr. Hacker states that the assistant in
Spectors, who have conducted the field
inspect IONS, have done excellent work and
that their services are not properly COM
penSated.
Il cannot too heartily recommend"

Question Ruled Out.

Dr.. Loving then was asked if it was
possible for a dead body, such as Mrs.
Beauties. to be set up on scat so that
il would not fall down Counsel for the
defense objected and the jury was asked
10 retire, the court finally ruling that the
question was one Of common knowledge
and could not be settled any better by
expert testimony. Mr.. Wendenburg said
coroner.
Mrs. r. e. Nolan, who lives next door

Paul come home in a machine with

ly's testimony.
II. Fl. Crowder also declared he was at
the bridge during the entire period while
Nebltt stopped on the bridge and that
Paul neither visited the cement house
nearby nor carried a shotgun.
William Sharp testified that Neblitt did
not know Paul Beattie when he saw him,
because few DAYS ago In the courthouse
yard he had asked him to point out Paul
TO him.
Coroner j. g. Loving was asked If he
had conversation on the Thursday
after the murder with Henry Clay Beat

iectives in which the prisoner denied that
