MAY NOT HANG.

Prendergast to Be Tried Regarding Hie Sanity.

MANY DOUBTS AS TO PROCEDURE.

Open Questions That Have to He Settled —Attorney Kern on the Btate'* Position—The Assassin Writes a Letter.

TO TEST BIS RAXITV.

Chicago, March 24.—The jury trial of Patrick Eug-ene PronderKtist tor insanity, ordered by Judge Chetlaln last Thursday nlfrht, will begin this morning In the same courtroom and be continued from day to day. Sunday excepted, at 10 a. m. and 2 p. m. until finished. There is scarcely a possibility that it will be quickly disposed of and it may stretch out to frroat length.

A I.egnl Novelty.

This trial might almost be called a leffal novelty. (State's Attorney Kern said Friday that, so l'ar as ho knew, it had never been resorted in the state of Illinois before. Hut Luther l.aflln Mills, who as stuto's attorney in 1885 had bettor reasons for recalling It, YVH8 able to furnish one precedent This was the case of James Daoey, who murdered Alderman O ay nor. Daoey took a change of venue to McHenry county. Mr. Mills prosecuted the case and Dacey was convicted nod sentenced to be hanged. The usual writ of error to the supreme court followed, and the sentence of the court below was affirmed. Hut some time before the day of execution Judge T. D. Murphy, the prisoner's counsel, filed in oourt au affidavit that Dacey had bocome Insane since he was sentenced, and moved for the impaneling of a Jury to determine his condition. The jury was impaneled und the issue was duly tried, Hut the verdict was against Dacey, and he was hanged at the appoiuted time. With this exception it is doubtful if the process Invoked by Mr. Gregory for Prendergast's delievranee was ever brought into requisition In the United States.

Un a Half Century Old.

The neglect of this potent remedy is remarkable for several reasous. It is agreed, on all sides, to be an indispensable safeguard of justice In regard to human life. It has been in use in England for centuries, and has withstood every attompt to abrogate it. Hut,strangest of all, It has been provided for in the laws of Illinois ever since 1S45, and possibly for over fifty years. Considering that the proceeding is so susceptible of abuse, is is regarded as remark able that it has been resortod to only twioe lu fifty years for the purpose of cheating Justice.

J'ointH to 1J« Settled.

The trial which begins to-day will be of extraordinary interest and importance for the reason that, while its legality is conceded, the different steps in the procedure have all to be determined without any elear guide from the books. No one can say authoritatively whether it is a civil or a criminal proceeding, though that fact determines a dozen others which may decide the fate of the prisoner. It is not clear whether the jury bhould consist of twelve men or of six men, one of whom is a physician, as in insaue eases. There its nothing to show whether the court can set aside the verdict of the jury and grant a new trial. Worse than all this, there are no laws for the ife detention of the prisoner, if adjudged insane, in an asylum, no law for sentencing him to any particular asylum, and no legal process provided by which to watch for his recovery, determine in a legal manner that he is sane again, and turn him over to the sheriff for execution.

State Attorney Kern's 1'oflition. In an interview {State's Attorney Kern, consulting, as he spoke, with his assistant, Mr. Knight, said: "The people of the stale of Illinois and myself have no Interest Ui the execution of Inuocent people. Therefore I shall do my duty te tho Frondercast case without the slightest bitterness or ambition for a victory. But I will, of course,

boo

that tho Investigation

is a thorough one. may pay 1 have a large number of witnesses who will testify to Preudergast's sanity. Many of them are experts, and among them Dr. N. S. Davis will testify that ho has examined Prendergust, both before und since sentence, and that he ts in better condition every way now than he WHS before he was sentenced. So, you

m»o,

the inquiry has got to be a thorough one. und I am glad of It. Whatever tho result may be, 1 shall feel better to think that every possible step was taken to secure justice."

Attorney Gregory's Views.

Attorney Gregory was not so ready as Mr. Kern to express an opinion on the questions of procedure involved in the trial. The only opinion he would express about it was that he was inclined to regard the trial as a finality. With reference to the disposition of Prendergast iu case he should be adjudged. insane, Mr. Gregory said he did-not believe he would be confined in an insane asylum. He thought he would be sent to the penitentiary and remain there until he became sane or died. If at any time it was found that he was sane he would be executed under the original sentence. t'reudergnst Writes.

Prendergast gave little evideuce Friday of feeling of any sort in connection with the stay of execution which had been granted him. He walked in his cell nearly the entire day. Just before lliggius was swinging in air the assassin seemed to arouse himself. At 11 o'clock he arose suddenly from hia cot and began to scribble on a piecQ of paper. He expressed regret for Higgins, adding, however, thai the murderer of McCooey had had a fair trial and that the law should take its course.

An Appointee of Lincoln IJeAd. Marqi'KTTE, Mich., March 24.— James Edward Dalliba, an old resident of thiB city, died Friday. He was born at Watervliet, N. Y., December 8, 1821, graduated from Hamilton college in 1841, studied law at Utica, N. Y., and settled in Chicago about 1850. lie was appointed attorney general of Colorado territory by President Lincoln and held that office about five years.

A tew day, previous to the murder Mr*. McOooey, Peter's wife, drew 1400 from a West side bank. It Is supposed that this faot reached the ears of MeCooey's murderer, and the burglary was oommltted for the ourpose ot securing this money. The money, however, bad been plaoed In the bank by Mrs. McCooey, and the burglar got nothing. At the MaxwellStreet station Hlgglns Is sold by the officers to have made a confession. He also oonfessed before the coroner's Jury the ne*t day. Hlgglns repudiated those confessions. He said the officers mude him drunk and punched his hpad until be signed a confession they had wrltteu. After a trial la9tlug five days Higglas was found guilty. Judge Brentano refused a motion for a new trial and sentenoed Higgles to be banged March 88. 1604. Hlgglns was born In Irelutid In 1870 und came to America with bis parents when he was yearB old. He bad only beta out of the Jollet penitentiary a few days when he was arrested for the murder of McCooey. Hlgglns had been sont to the penitentiary for one yeSr on conviction of burglary. 1

Hodie* Torn to Fragments. Nellie Ueinaley was injured by falling timbers in an adjoining building, and died on the train bringing her to a hospital in Pittsburgh. The other four were literally blown to pieces. Fragments of their bodies were scattered over a radius of 1% miles. The largest portion of the remain:- yet found is one. of Robin's feet. It was picked up fully half mile from the scene of the explosion. There were, it seems, two explosions. The first occurred in the packing house, in which those who were killed were at work. This building was scattered to the winds. An instant later there was a terrific explosion in the mixing house, which razed tho building and machinery to the ground. The surrounding forest has the appearance of having been mown down by a gigantic scythe. The hoto blown iuto the earth has the appearance of a monster cellar.

At the time of the explosion there was stored in the works live tons of dynamite, a consignment ready for shipment today. The works had a capacity of 20,000 pounds per day. The explosion created the wildest kind of excitement in the Alleghany valley above and below Black's run, at tho mouth of which the works were located. At Acmetonia, Ilulton, Oaktnont, Veronia, Johnston, Parnassus, Kensington, Tarentum and other towns within a radius of several miles there was great alarm. Nearly every window in Acmetonia, Springdale aud

Ilulton was shattered, and a few of the houses were considerably damaged.

It minor metals this is a little Jnrger, but at the expense of a further decline to 9 Scents fot lake copper, while tin Is steady and lead shade higher.

CottonM Heduce« in Pi-Ice.

The demand for cotton goods is fairly large, but with reduction in prices of some grades and the accumulation of print cloths continues. A large auction sale of Bilks brought fairly satisfactory prices. Seles of wool for three weeks have exceeded last year's U3.( per cent., through transactions thin mout): last year were about 40 per cent be low the average. There Is more demanded foi suoh wool as is needed In the manufacture ol underwear, dress goods and worsted suiting*, but fine fleeces are almost unsalable, Ohio XX being quoted at cents, and carpet manufac turors buy sparingly, though about half their machinery is active.

The Markets Fluctuate.

Wheat, cotton aud pork have declined a little, wheat making another record a shade below 00 cents at New York. Western receipts are 1,^8,879 bushels, against 2,MA,7Ul las I year, and exports only 1,018,809 bushels, against 1,29S,B94 last year* showing that oveu at current prices the grain !s not largely wanted abroad. Corn was oeut stronger, with western receipt* 2,874.000 bushels, against 1,953,322 last year. Cotton receipt* from plantations are again larger than last year, to the disgust of prophets, who have foretold a "perpendicular drop" ever since Jan uary 1.

Tlie Human Electrical Forces!

How They Control the Organs of the Bod/.

The electrical force of the human body, aa the nerve fluid may bo termed^ aa especially attractive department of science, as it exerts so marked an influence on tho health of the organs of the body. Nerve force 1* produced by the brain aud conveyed by means of tho nerves to the various organs of the hody, thussupplylng tho latter.wltli the vitality necessary to insure their health. Tho pneumogastrlc nerve, as shown hero, may be said to be the most important of tho entire nerve system, as it supplier tho heart, lungs, stomach, bowels, etc., with the nerve foree necessary to keep them active and healthy. As will ho seen by the cut tho long nerve in base of the braia and terminating in the bow. els Is the pneumogastrlc, whilo the numerous lit-, tie branches supply thel heart, lungs aud 6tom-' aeh with necessary vitality.
