thrizht. from its shape, that It was -the bullet that had struck Hinshaw In the side. TIIC DOCTOR choss-examixed.
Position Revolver Mnst Hnve Reen Held to Hnve Cnnseri the Wound. The contention of the State in this noted trlat is that Mr. Hinshaw. after murdering his wife, inflicted wounds upon himself to give further credence to his story of an attack by burglars. The nature of his wounds and a minute description was furnished by Dr. Dryden, in response to the numerous Questions of the attorneys, and the most important conclusion that mlsht be drawn from the description of tho wound In Mr. Hlnshaw's shoulder was that he himself fired the shot that caused the Injury. The bullet taken from the body of Hinshaw was produced by the State, having been obtained from Dr. Dryden, who refused to surrender it to the prosecutors except on the advice of Mr. Hlnshaw's counsel. The Doctor admitted at the beginning of the afternoon session that the bullet struck the minister's body at an angle; that from Its course it could not have been fired from a pistol or revolver the muzzle of which was pointed directly at the body. Mr. Spaan unrolled a bundle he had at his feet, and from it took a torn, red undershirt, the one the minister wore on the night of the tragedy. In it was the hole .where the bullet entered. Mr. Cully, of the prosecution, stood in front of the Jury, while Mr. Spaan played the part of the modiste, draping- the garment to his associatcv after borrowing pins from various court officials. After the bullet hole was superimposed to a relative position on Mr. Cully's body, .Mr. Spaan asked the Doctor td examine the faint marks of a stain about the edge of the puncture. The Doctor admitted that the garment had been washed since the murder, and was not certain the stain was caused by a powder burn. lie corroborated his statement before the coroner that he thought both shots fired at Mr. Hin5haw were fired at practically the same range. lie said there was no the slightest danger of the bullet that caused the lower wound entering beneath the rib, which deflected its course. The witness then arose, and grasping the revolver which Mr. Spaan had produced, explained the manner in which the weapon must "have been held to have produced a wound of such a description. The weapon was In the Doctor's right hand, with the muzzle pointed to bis left breast at an angle that would have carried the bullet through Into the arm near the shoulder bone. The Doctor reiterated his statement, upon the request of Mr. Spaan, that this wis the probable position in which the revolver was held. The course of the breast wound had been upward, while that of the lower wound was downward. The prosecution contends that this helps prove their theory that Hinshaw inflicted both wounds upon himself. Within two weeks after his wounds had been dressed the minister had left his home for "Winchester. The witness was then cross-examined at length as to his knowledge of cerebral localization, the prosecution maintaining that they had a right to thoroughly inquire Into this In order to determine the soundness of the Doctor's opinion and tho correctness of his statements on the stand in the morning. The Doctor had testified that the wound in Mrs. Hlnshaw's head would not necessarily bring about complete unconsciousness or paralysis. He was asked to describe the various convolutions that are supposed to govern speech, locomotion and other functions of the body. Speech fwas controlled Just above the templar lobe, but he could not exactly locate the convolution. Mr. Spaan, asked him what authorities he had read in gaining his knowledge of the brain. Dr. Dryden said he had recently read an article from he London Lancet bv Dr. Semm, an eminent authority. He had read this since the murder. He could not recall other authorities -from which ho had gained his information. Mr. Spaan named over a number of authorities, but the Doctor did rot remember consulting them. Ho told Mr. Spaan that the ascending parietal con-, trolled the lower extremities. He didn't know what controlled the sight and finally admitted that he did not know a great deal about cerebral localization, qualifying his statement to show that he knew aout as much as a man who did not have the advantage of special study in this direct?f. Spaan's evident object was to shov that Mrs. Hinshaw could not have talked and moved after receiving- the wound, as her husband insists she did. . The Doctor thought it was possible, so he said in reply to a question, for a woman with a wound such as Mrs. Hinshaw received to walk, talk and fight a burglar. He could not tell Just how possible It might be, making a comparison by the number of possible cases in a thousand. He was sure that there have been case3 where people, with a portion of the motor area of the brain Injured, have walked. The witness admitted that he appeared on the war records as a hospital steward, though he had acted In the capacity, at times, of regimental surMr. Spaan casually touched upon the discoloration of Mrs. Hlnshaw's left eye. The witness testified that blood coagulates more rapidly in cold than in warm weather. The conversation the witness had with the preacher when he dressed his wounds after the tragedy was brought out in detail. The preacher had told the witness that a movement of Mrs. Hinshaw in the bed and some noise awoke the husband. The wife arose in bed and Hinshaw followed her a second later. Fer a moment the minister saw the burglar and then lost sight of him. His Impression was. so he inforrfled the witness, that he had grappled with the intruder, who was striving to get out of the door into the cast room. In the dininsr room the preacher and the burglar had a "dog fall." Then the other burglar appeared on the scene and attempted to separate th preacher and burglar No. L He was successful, and the three went back into the east room. Hinshaw did not remember which door he passed through in pursuing burglar No. 1 into the street. The preacher remembered going through the woodhouse gate and scuffling with burglar No. 1 in the street. He told the witness he was trying to capture the burglar; not to harm him. Hinshaw. upon reaching the opposite side of the street, tried to throw the burglar across a fence. The witness dropped somewhat into his own impressions while relating the story as told to Should be Looked Into. THOROUGH INVESTIGATION REQUESTED. A BOLD ASSERTIOX. r Ever since Prof. Koch startled the world by promising to cure consumption with the Koch lymph and his complete failure to do so, the people have been looking for some discovery which would prove an absolute, certain cure for that dread disease. Over a quarter of a century ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute, put in a claim for a medicine, which he had discovered and used, in his extensive practice, that would cure ninety-eigbt per cent of all cases of consumption when taken in all its early stages. Time has proved that his assertion was based on facts gained from experience. His "Golden Medical Discovery "has cured many thousand people in all parts of the world, and Dr. Pierce invites all interested to send to him for a free book which gives the names, addresses and photographs of many prominent people who have willingly testified to the marvelous curative proper, ties of his "Golden Medical Discovery' He has also written a Book of 160 pages on Diseasesof the Respiratory Organs, "which treats of all Throat, Bronchial and Lun?? diseases, also Asthma and Catarrh, that will be mailed by the World's Dispensary Medleal Association of Buffalo, N. Y., on receipt cf six ceits in stamps, to pay postage. Consumption, as most everybody knows, 13 first manifested by feeble vitality, loss cf strength, emaciation ; then local symptoms soon develop, as coueht difficult breathinp or bleeding from lungs, when itvestigation proves that tubercular deposits have formed in the lungs. It is earnestly advised that the " Discovery " be tileen early and the latter stages of the dHtise can thereby be easily avoided. To build up solid jftesFi and strength after tl; rrif'. pneumonia, ("lung fever "), ex-z-ziir.z fevers, and other prostrating disz"z. it has no equal.

him by Hmshaw. ' and was sharply
.brought around by the inquisitor. shaw told it, not quoting the defendant's words, however. Tho preacher thought the man be grappled with was of dark complexion. He was sure he was stout. He couldn't tell whether he wore a mustache, or how he was dressed. He wore a cap that came down over his brow, but was not further disguised. Burglar No. 2 was thin, and tall, and of light complexion. Hinshaw did not realize he was shot while ho was out In the street. He first toli the Doctor he didn't know which one of the men shot him, in speaking of it afterwards, but immediately corrected himself and said: "I know it couldn't be the first burglar, because I had hold of his hands." The preacher did not know which direction the shot came from, nor did he see any one fire at him. Hinshaw .had told the Doctor that .Mrs. Hinshaw had placed her hand on her husband's shoulder after he had been shot ant uttered: "Will, is that you?" This was the last speech the husband heard from his wife. Mr. Smith took the witness after this statement and showed by him that the conversation detailed above took place in a crowded room, with a number1 of persons around putting questions to the preacher as the Doctor dressed his wounds. Tom Hamrlck and a number of others were there. Hinshaw was in an agitated condition, the Doctor said, and under great excitement. Mr. Smith showed through the witness that it was no unusual thing for a doctor to forget the names of the different convolutions and the technical terms applied to the different parts of the brain. That 19 a point on which the doctors most frequently become rusty. Doctors do not always remember the percentage tables of deaths froai given causes. Mr. Spaan laid stress on the fact that cases of gunshot wounds in the head were reported voluminously In the army records, citing this when the witness failed to remember the names of war oases he had described. The Doctor said he had never heard of any case in the Fifteenth Indlaaa being reported in a medical journal or a war record. He knew of cases where bullets had been removed from men's brains arid the patients lived. The bullet taken from Mr. Hinshaw's body was frequently exhibited at the trial yesterday. The court adjourned at 4 o'clock. Dr. Dry den being ordered to report again Monday morn:ng. MASONS LOSE BY FIRE FLAMES PLAY HAVOC WITH THE ORDER'S TEMPLE AT BOSTOX. Scottish niters, Kntstut Templars nnd Illne Lodge Member Suffer Loia Between 9150,000 and i5100,000. BOSTON, Sept 7.-Masonic Temple, which last week was resplendent with decorations on the occasion of the Knights Templars conclave, is to-day the scene of desolation and destruction! wrought by fire, which was discovered shortly, after 10 o'clock this morning, and which gritted the two upper stories. Owing to an accident a false alarm was rung in from the Parker House, and a delay of nearly twenty minutes occurred before the department was ready to worK at the Masonic Temple. The flre in the meantime (had gained considerable headway. Fire was first discovered in the" anteroom of the Reeve Lodge, on the third floor, and in a short time had eaten its way to the fourth floor and from thence to the roof, when Chief Webber ordered a second alarm, and shortly afterwards a third alarm was rung in. From that time the department strained every nerve to keep the fire from spreading. District Chief Regan, while directing the efforts of his men from the tower, nearly twenty feet above the roof, was suddenly obliged to' fly for his life from the smoke and flames. He scrambled down and sought safety along a narrow ledge, four inches wide. After an hour and a half the fire was under control. The third and fourth floors and the roof were gutted, while on the second floor' the flre had ecorched a number of rooms in the rear. The loss is estimated at from $150,000 to $400,000, but no sellable estimate can be ob tained until the underwriters have done their work. All of the regalia of the Scottish Rite, one of the most expensive outfits in the Masonic order, was destroyed, and the Gothio (hall, Egyptian hall and red rooms, with their valuable tapestries and furnishings, were ruined. A number of valuable paintings were sraved. There were twenty-six lodges and commanderies which met In the temple, and all of them will suffer some loss. The Boston command ery has a blanket Insurance of 125,000 on its regalias and uniforms, and it Is thought the others are covered in a like manner. Several accidents occurred during the fire, restrict Chief Kgan was carried by a fallling roof thirty feet, and suffered a broken leg, injuries to his head and severe internal Injuries. Lieutenant Madden's skull was fractured, he being struck by a broken pipe from his engine. Fireman James Downey, of ladder company Np. 1, was struck on the head by a piece of slate.

IN A BURNING MINE
FORTY TOILEnS IMPniSOXHD UNDERGROUND IS MICHIGAN. Entrances Dnttencil Down nnd the Men Left to Their Fate Efforts at Rescue Baffled hy Smoke. CALUMET, Mich., Sept 7. At about 3 o'clock this afternoon fire broke out in the shaft of the Osceola mine, and at this time It is more than probable that forty men and boys have been burned to death or suffocated. The names of the men known to be in the mine are as follows: CAPTAIN TRENBERT, RICHARD RICKKT. MICHAEL JOHNSON, . RICHARD GRKNFELL, MICHAEL SCHULTE, JOHN MATSON. WILLIAM BRYANT, FRANCIS LANDER, ALEX. DANFELL, JOHN CUDLIP. THOMAS CURTIS, ROBERT JOHNS, PETER MARTIN. JOSEPH SAGHTE. JAMES HARRINGTON, ' WILLIAM DONALD, BARNEY ELGORE. ANTON SCEZWEAK, PETER STANGARD, WALTER DOHLE. Trenbert was mine boss, and the two last named were drill boys. The fire started in shaft No. 3, which is used to carry the miners to the surface from the mine, and when the fire broke out all-of the men and boys employed In the mine, about 200 In number, made a rush for the shaft in the hope of being taken to the surface. The flre was too rapid for them, however, and. the chance of escape by the shaft was cut off by flames and smoke. The jnajority of the Imprisoned miners made a break for a cross-cut, and in this way managed to reach another shaft, from which they were taken to the top. Forty were missing when the roll was called. Within a short time after they had reached the surface smoke began pouring from all the shafts. The men in charge say there Is not the slightest chance for any of the men now in the mine to escape with their lives. If they are not burned they must have been choked by the dense smoke within a short, time after the fire started. Fortunately the mine is not as heavily timbered as some of the mines in this locality, and it will not take a great while to burn out. There is not the slightest thing that can be done for the men, and no effort is being made to extinguish the flames. .There Is nothing known of how the fire originated. . Another dispatch says the fire broke out in the twenty-seventh level. The Osceola is a copper mine located two miles from Calumet. As Capt. Richard Edwards was making his way to No. 3 shaft he smelled wood burning, but some of the miners working In the levels there would not believe there was fire. in the mine, as they could not smell smoke or hear flames crackling. On nearing No. 3 shaft, Capt. Edwards met Captain Trenbert and a party of men who were looking for the fire, and on reaching the shaft they found a large quantity of logging on fire. Capt. Trenbert and a party of men were left to fight the fire below, while Captain Edwards went to the surface to get a hose, but when he returned he found that the smoke had made an updraft instead of a down, and in, consequence he had to come back to the surface as fast as possible. Word was immediately sent to all the men in the mine to come to the surface, which most of them succeeded in doing, but there still remains in the dry house thirty suits of clothes, and it is supposed that number were unable to get out In time and are entombed 2,700 feet below the surface with no possible avenue of ..escape. Fortunately there is very little timber in this part of the mine, so the flre mu3t soon burn out, but If the miners have not already been smothered to death they surely will be if the flre has to be left to burn out before they can be reached. Ever since 12:30 o'clock smoke has been pouring out of the mine in huge volumes from No. 3 shaft. The scene at the Opeecha shaft, where many of the men came up, was heartrending, thousands having gath- . ered around the mouth of this shaft, many being women and children looking for their husbands and fathers. Besides the men mentioned above, many more are known to be entombed, but In the excitement lt is Impossible to obtain their names. They are mostly Austrian trammers. Searching parties ywere sent down into Xos. l'.and 2 shafts to try and reach the men from the drifts leading to No. 3 shaft above the twenty-seventh level, but were unsuccessful. The mouths of the shafts have now been battened up to stop all drafts, and all hope is now given up of ever rescuing the men alive. This is the greatest loss of life that has ever occurred in the copper country. HEAVY TRAFFIC EXPECTED. Western Rnllvrays May Revive Their Trunk-Line Committee. CHICAGO, Sept. 7. The freight officials of the Western roads are generally feeling highly encouraged over the outlook for business this fall. They are feeling so confident that they will have . a great amount of business to handle that a strong effort will probably be made in the near future, to revive the Western trunk line committee, which .went to pieces a short time ago. The committee was allowed to collapse because the volume of business was so light that some of the roads would not put themselves In a position where they were likely to be debarred from making an effort to secure as much of, it as possible. When in a committee agreement they would be compelled to take whatever percentage the agreement allowed to them, and this they were not willing to do. Now the amount of traffic in sight is so large that there is a disposition to revive the committee and prevent the rates from goin? to a point where the roads will be likely to lose the best opportunity they have had for many a month to recoup themselves for the reduced earnings they have faced so long. A circular looking to the restoration of the committee has for some time been circulated among the Western roads. It has received so many signatures that there Is a strong probability that a formal meeting will be called at an early date to consider the best manner of getting; the committee on its feet once more. ' BLAND SAYS WAtt IS SURE. The Gold and Sliver Factions of Democracy, He Thinks, Mast Fljrht. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 7. Ex-Congressman Bland was here to-day. He was asked: 'In case the Democratic national convention refuses to adopt a tree-silver platform, what will be the result? He replied: "Tbere will be' a division between the Eastern and Western Democracy. It is, it seems to me, inevitable anyway. The party is inharmonious. Its former leaders are one way,' and the party Is the other. War is sure; The tariff and ether th!n;s have kept the party together heretofore, but they are beins lost slsht of. No one co3 tell tha cutcomi. Arr-rently tho IU-
publicans are not together. They are afraid of the silver issue, and are doing all they can to keep It quiet. The only thing the free-silver Democrats can do now is to keep organizing. - If there chouid be another bond issue before' long it would have a great effect. It was the issue of the last $2,000,000 that set the people to thinking. The Eastern capitalists know this, and they will try to prevent another one If possible." "Is not a compromise pc5Sible?" "They tried it in Kentucky. They put up a free-silver candidate there on a gold platform. What is the result? Why. they are in worse shape than they were before the convention." CrUu Favors Whitney. NEW YORK. Sept. 7.-Ex-Speaker Crisp was surrounded by newspaper men as soon as the steamer . Kew York, on which he was a passenger, arrived at her dock. On the silver question he was not disposed to speak and would not commit himself on financial subjects any further than to say that English capitalists were fast buying up American bonds. Mr. Crisp expressed himself in favor of the nomination of William C. Whitney as the Democratic nominee for President. "His record as Secretary of the Navy was good and showed him to be not only a capable, but a most desirable candidate at the present Juncture," said Mr. Crisp. Hill Speaks on "Personal Liberty.' ELM IRA, N. Y., Sept. 7.

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Sept. 7.-Dr. O W. McLeod, a well-known physician of this city, knows some' chapters of swlhiler Fraker's life that have not yet appeared In print. He said to-day: "Fraker always was a shrewd, mean-fellow. I knew him when he was a young man. He began to practice withput a diploma in Triplett, Mo. He was never arrested for it. ' Before long he turned druggist. His store was really an unlicensed liquor 6hop. He was arrested for this offense, and his business was broken up. He married and moved to Excelsior Springs,, a watering place seventy miles away, ills' wife was a good, respectable girl. Two years later she was home on a "Visit when her clothes and all her little belongings unexpectedly made their appearance, and with them a message from Fraker that she need never come back. He declared that she was too Jealous, and he was done with her. His wife loved him very much. She wanted a reconciliation. At last she gave It up and applied for a divorce, and some time after married her second' husband. Frakr used to get into all sorts of little scrapes. He would do some mean things and sink low in every one's estimation, but always managed to get back into the town's good graces again. He did get a medical diploma at last. I believe he never married again. His father and -mother died when he was a little boy, and he was brought up by an uncle, but was thrown on his own resources early in life and drifting by slow degrees from little things to worse ones." Failure of Pork Packers. ST. PAUL, ' Sept. 7.-6"Leary & Son, packers of this city, have made an assignment to John F. Rroderick. The liabilities of the firm, which is the largest concern of the kind in the Northwest, are about $200,000 and it Is claimed the assets will about liquidate the obligations. The failure is the result of a stocking up in business when hogs were well up in the price and the great fall in the market since that time. The firm has a branch in Minneapolis.

WHAT BALFOUR SAID
HE HAS JfOT CHAXGED HIS VIEWS 0. IXTERNATIOXAL BIMETALLISM. .9 The Kniclliih StateHman Doe X6t See Why Ills Recent Utterances In the Commons Should Perplex People. LONDON. Sept. 7. The Right Hon. A.. J. Balfour, First Lord of tho Treasury, writes under date of Sept. 4 as' follows: "With reference to ihe recent declarations In the House of Commons I do not know why persons Interested should be perplexed over my supposed change of attitude on the question of International bimetallism, for no such change has occurred. My answer, which has given rise to so much unnecessary discussion, explicitly stated the opinions which I have long held and which I thought all bimetalllsts held also. The answer was textually as follows:" Mr. Balfour then gave his reply to the question put in the House of Commons whether he would advise the government to invite an international monetary conference, when he said: T am and always have been in favor of an international agreement, but I have not the right to pledgo my colleagues and I do not believe that an international agreement would result from an international conference." Mr. Balfour's fetter continues: "It is only as regards the statement that . I had no grounds for thinking that a conference would result in an International agreement at the present moment and that an abortive conference would do more harm than good that any difference of opinion may possibly be found among bimetalllsts. In my Judgment, however, there is but little prospect of a conference succeeding unless the governments who are to be represented at It come to some understanding on the main points at issue before the conference assembles. No such understanding unfortunately at present exists, and until it does exist a conference would probably do moro harm. than good. .r..'.4;i.;-.

REFORM IN TITLES. Changes Snos;ested to the Xaval Vet erons' Association. BALTIMORE. Sept. 7. In his report to the National Association, Rear Admiral Allen, of the Naval Veterans' Association, makes some important suggestions which toave been embodied in a resolution to be presented by Shipmate Gooding, of Chicago, at the coming G. A. R. convention at Louisville. The most important of these are a change in the titles of officers and a 'national council" in place of the present national executive committee, the latter being considered as too unwieldy a body to do good work. Regarding the change of titles, it is said that wfiile the titles "rear admiral" and "commodore" were adopted out of sympathy and respect for the naval service, it was a mistake to assume titles to which they had no rigAt, being created by Congress for officers of the navy, and that to longer perpetuate the same Is an offense, causes confusion in the public mind and leads to the Iohs of respect and co-operation of navy officers and others. It is too much, it la salt, on the order of opera bouffe to call a civilian "real admiral," and the title "national commander." tc. la suggested.. Gold lace, it Is advised, should also be discarded, as it ha become offensive to good taste since its adoption by museum freaks, fakirs, etc.. and in jlace thereof modest rank straps, to be wtrn with the badge on the left breast or on the coat collar, are suggested.

SATURDAY SIGHT AT PEKI.W A Fair Crowd nt Lincoln Park The Beautiful Fireworks. There was a very fair Saturday night crowd at Lincoln Park iasi night to witness the third presentation of "A Night in Pckin." The performance was far smoother than cither of the previous performances, as the management has become more perfect with a few presentations. There were no accidents last night and, barring tho slightly chilly evening, there was nothing to mar the perfect enjoyment of those in attendance. Each evening the crowd which gathers on the high grounds about the park increases tvlth the inside attendance, and last night was no exception. The number of people who crowd into an adjoining field, which is an advantagfous position, has caused the owner of the place to make complaint to the management of the park, although the gentlemen In charge are unable to see how they are responsible tor those on the outside of the hUh fence. Tho ballets last night were somewhat improved, although they are yet not all that might be desired. There seem to be a. few members who are unable to remember the evolutions and their mistakes at critical times mars the beauty of the entire ballet. The drill given by the Zouave company, in the guise of Chinese troops, is well up to the standard of the remainder of the performance. There is always a burst of patriotism from the audience in the midst of th spectacle, when the bodies of tiie two s"ldiera beheaded by the Clnnes Emperor, are borne to the boats by the American soldiers and the stars and stripes are spread over them. The American man-of-war lies in the harbor and when the war breaks out, it lends Its aid to the EnRli.a troops. Tho bombardment of the city of Pekin is commenced by a corps of soldier on bicycles, who ride along the lake shore and open flre on the Chinese soouts, wh return the fire with vigor. Suddenly the artillery wheels Into sight, and before the audience realizes it a real battle Is unlr headway. The cannon - belches forth its, load of fire and is followed by the guns on, the man-of-war. Then the companies of-, French and English soldiers, who have, suddenly inarched upon the scene, fir round after round, adding to, the confusion. Quickly the shells frorr the cnion begin to burst in the midst of the city, and before-many minute the entire canvas city seems to be on mas of flr so continued are the terrific explosions behind the scene. Finally with a mighty shout the English troops rush upon the Chinese soldiers, overpower them and the city is taken captive. Before the audience has time to recoer itself from the uproar, dozens of tril-Uantly-colored rockets are being shot irf the air above the spectators by operators behind the city. The many set pieces of fireworks are beautiful in the extreme, and many of them call for loud applaue. The next performance will Monday night, which will be ladies nlfcht.
