New York, Sept. 2 Stephen Raymond, nlias "Steve" Marshall, was arresteil yesterday on a charge of forgery, the forgery cona'sting of an alteration of numbers on the Union I'acitic Iliüroad Company's coupons, supposed to be a portion ot the bonds and coupons stolen on January 2U. 1S7U. from the Northampton, Mavs., bank. Kigbteen months ao notice wa-s received at the New Yoikeiriee ot" the 1'nion l'acilic Railroad Company from A. It. Hinckley, of Boston, that coupon?, supposed to be a part of the proceeds of the Northampton burglary, tvere being regularly paid in this city, foe matter was placed in the hands of private delicti ves, without result. Last March twelve conporsof $l,ofd) sinking fund bndsof the Union I'acitic Ilailroad were paid, bvh in the New York and Boston cilires of the Company. Those presented here were found to be rennine coupons, but with altered numbers. The oupons paid at Boston proved to be tLe property of a reputable merchant. A lew days ago Inspector Byrnes was noticed of the facts, and as the semi-annual payments of coupens due became payable yesterday, det?ctivc9 were assigned to watch for the presentation of altered coupons. At a signal from Mr. Litell, the coupon clerk of the Union l'acilic Company, a man who had giveu his name aa Clark, was followed to the National Bank of Commerce, where he went to cash a check for $ ISO jm received. B -fore presenting the check he recognized Infective Slevin on the other ti le of the stm-t. Tearing up ths check lie thrust the pieces in his mouth and began tJ eat them. The detectives at once arrested him, but recovered only a t mall portion of the check. The prisoner was recognized as Baymond. alias Marshall, the forger, who, in 187.;, aided in placing iT 10,000 of forged Brie and BaiTalo bonds. For this olfense he was sentenced to live years in the titate l'rison. He is forty-six years old, and has one glass eye. He is said to confine himself entirely to forgery. In the l'olice Court to-day he was remanded, 'il.c bonds from which the altered coupons were detached weresupposed to be the propeiiy of Hinckley, who had a large amoant of seenr-.ties on deposit in the vault of the Northarnpt jn Bank at t be time of the burglary.

A Committee of whites went to a negroes' rendezvous intending to observe the proceedings of the colored men. The bouse was found guarded by a dcen blacks, one of whom, after calling out for the Caucasians to halt, immediately lired both barrels of a shotgun.

Just east of Mt. Auburn, 8helby County, is a level corn Held, on the farm of John Neible. This field has been in cultivation for Beveral years. Until lately there Tere no indications of anything like cavernous formations; indeed, the character of the soli, a heavy clay, and the moderate level surface, would never hint at such a thiog. A fchort time sincj Mr. Neible was plowing corn in this field when his horse stopped in the corn tot. After sciue urging the animal shied from a diitct path, breaking down tbe corn on the tide farthest from the object at which he had scared. Mr. N. turned back to sa'.idy hircsell as to what the aaiuial hsd ic;n. He was greatly astoiiWhfd to find a nearly circular hole iu the level surface of the ground, about two feet in diameter, whic'j opened out into a hole or cave, whose darkness he could not fathom. About two weeks before the plow had j asspd over the same spot in cultiva'ing, and no ind:cttion9 of 6uch a place bad apjwsred. 11 exuloration shoved ft 1 very curious formation. The cave is i-ar-! tbaied. i:s dioieiisious being a follovs: Tne oiitice is a litt! more than two feet in diameter, the firtst swfll opening to a diameter of 1 ten feet; at th distance ot nine feet bflow the nirfece the walls are drawn nomewhat inwaid, the diameter Lere being about eight i feet; from here the walla widen aua'n and j e xterd downward ten feet further, where i the bottom, slightly hollowed, is fo:ind which is thirteen feet in diameter oae way and over twelve the oilier the meivirements being taken at right angles. Within tbe cave 1 here were found beilhtr rubbish nor d bris of any kind, nothing in fact but a little loese surface soil, which had evidently lately fallen from the orifice. S wilding upon tbe bottom brought no sipns of further cavities below, nor was any opening found at its lower extremity nor in i's wall. Tne cave is nearly circular, and from within loiks like two cistern., one above the other. Corn Was planted and grew immediately over the cave, not a hill even bi irig wanting until removed ta facilitate an entrance. A Probable Suicide. Special to the Sentinel: Siymovb, Ind., Sept. 3. About o'clock this morning Nathan Moore, a single man aged about fifty years, who came in from the country Saturday evening and was drinking heavily yesterday, was found on tbe sidewalk apparently in a drunken sleep. He was roused by some friends and walked to an alley, where he a2ain laid down. About two hours later he wasdincovered to be in spasms and an empty vial that hud contained laudanum was found lying by bis tide. Medical aid was summoned but was unavailing to help him, and he died about 1:30 o'clock thia afternoon. It is clearly a case of deliberate suicide, but so lar no'hirg is known or hat been developed as to the cause for the rash act. An inquest is now in progress.
JL OBSNO SUCCESS.
Debat of Mary Anderson Before a London Audience LoNDoy, Sept. 1. The event of the week in the dramatic world was the debat of Miss Mary Anderson, which came off thia evening, at the Lyceum Theater, whose stage has been made classic in the eyes of Londoners by the genius of Henry Irving. Miss Anderson had been sufficiently long in London a have become personally known to many df tbe leaders of the art world of the metropolis, and it must be admitted she badBCoreda, preliminary triumph in wanning golden opinions of herself as a woman before the opportunity of judging as an artist had been given. She has been warmly taken by tte haqd by some of the most potent arbiters of artistic fate, and the presence of a large and brilliant first night audience was assured tober without the need of any of the adventition3 claptrap which Haverly and some others taught the Londoners to expect when an American debut is impending. Still, if it were certain that there would be a large andsence it was equally certain tbat it would be a critical one, and that when the laurels, if they were to be worn, would have to be worn by artistic merit, ctlmly judged by the canons which have! been set up by that exigent of London assemblies, a Lyceum tirst night audience. This fact was known to none more thoroughly than to the debutante herself and her mentor, Dr. Hamilton Griilin, but that gentleman's calm serenity np to the moment the curtain rose showed that but littl fear of failure entered his mind, and tbe event has proved that if such fea existed in any quarter they were wholly groundless. The evening was as nearly perfect as a September niht in London can ever be, and there was no counter attraction of suiticient potency to keep away the best class of theatre-goers. The house, which has long witnessed the highest exhibitions of Knglish dramatic art, was crowded, and it seemed as if the whole of artistic and critical London was aesembled within its walls. The debutante's reception in the tirst act waa distinctly friendly, and soon became enihusiastic Her figure waa seen to be commanding frooi its hi-bt, although girlish in its supple and almost serpentine slenderneiw, and the simple and colorless drapery in which she had dressed the part of l'artbenia. lent grace to her pose and carriage, which were always statuetqae without bearing tbe least impress of stndy or Eelf-consciouk.nefs, The wMte-robd Mguie. with (.inuous arms bared to the boulder, and abundant bro-rn hair banging freely from the shapely head, with tie tremulous mouth and curl of the thort upper-lip involuntarily suggesting pathetic power, was a revelation even to those of the audience win had seen this fair girl in the conventional dress of the drawine-room or the promenade, and the ice of citicism japidly melted in the glow of an involuntary enthusiasm. Tbe applause became more and more general, and it continued far beyond what any o! her trends could have anticipated. The debutante stood long before the footlights, gracefully bowing her thanks, and essajiugto begin the liues of her part. When at last sbe began .to speak her lichly modulated voice provoked another talvo of applause. During the earlier portion of this act theie wis a alight tre norland I lie actress set rued hardly at her ease, bat this quickly wore away, and she became the noble, animated heroine ot the half-savage, half-idiotic romance of Ingomar. The applause was generously renewed at the close of I'arthenia's interview with I'olydor in which the maiden's noble devotion to filial love and duty was powerfully portrayed, and her speech, In which she foreshadows her resolution of self-sacritice, was enthusiastically redemanded. At the close of this act she was twice called before the curtain and applauded to the echo. The tame recognition was given at the end of the second act, and aa elaborate bouquet from Mrs. L&bouchere's box was among the lloral Otterings which now hegantorain upon tbe tege. The third act confirmed the verdic'of the other two, snd dec ded beyond cavil the triumphant success of the debat. Again Mr. Barnes, the "Ingomar" of the play, was twice compelled to lead "l'artbenia" before the curtain, and the cultured critics of the metropolis again became the claquerjof one of the most speedy and ppontaneous successes of the London stage. After tte performance the more deliberate judgment of the foyer and tbe clubs was found to tiara retained the verdict of the play house. It rras decided by the coolest of the critics that Miss Anderson's performance had challenged the highest standard of criticism and had fairly stood the 01 deal; tbat she was equal totbebest exponents of the dramatic art in Fngland, and that in voice and eesture, In play of wit and fancy, and in the delineation of human passions and human emotions, Bhe had shown herself worthy of the ovation which her genius had enforced. Mies Anderson expretsed herself as delighted with the remit ar.d confident of her artistic future. PAUNKLL'.S SPEECH. Comment Upon the Irish Leadei'a ddress tn Dublin. Los pos, Sept. 1. Mr. Fdrnell's Dublin speech continues to give the Conservatives trouble. This addre-s will probably turn out to be, perhaps, the most memorable ever delivered by the Irish leader. It was the first in which the spraker ever esssyed any forecast in politics. The o:casiou was the inaugurating of a thorough caavauof Ireland für the purpose of establishing branches of the National League in every settlement throughout the country. Dab. in was selected as the rest place to start this great cam jaiga, and the h ult. was the date. The city was crowded with delegations of Lgu men from every part of Ireland. Mr. l'arnell spoke at greater length and with mora ani nation tiian on any previous time in Ireland. lleyaid tbat Ireland appears to haveatlast real bed the time when in politics her sous thoroughly appreciated the value and uses of patiiotic unity. That the united members of the Home Knie party hed by continued union in parliamentary action Becnred more toncessions of great value from the British Covernment in the past session of Parliament ihan that Government had ever before given Ireland in any one generation. Mr. l'arnell ssured his hearers that the present BngliaU iovernment thoroughly appreciated the great strength cf the Irish party, and he argaed that that party, bavin? as a unit forced itself into recognition, would in the future be able to secure rt medial legislation without undergoing such contests as it had been subjected to in tbe past, provided the members maintained their unity. Tbe speaker, made a strong appeal for unity among Dish members, and urged the people of Ireland to a u import for Parliament only those men who could be relied nrua to act with the Home Utile party under all circums'ances. lie cautioned his hearera against supposing that Füglsnd would do anything for Iteland outof a spirit of pure National generoiity, and said that no concessions had ever been obtained, and none ever would be obtained, that was rot wrung by sheer force from the governing power. The fores which notv lays within tbe Irishman's grasp was Parliamentary strength. It had been psrsistently and intelligently user by the small number of Irish members during the past aessioa,
and, although the period covered one of the darkest and most desperate eras of Irish history, still the Irish party by unity had bo pesrly secured the balance of power in the Biitiivb I'ailiament as to have very largely ibtlueEced, and in some cases actually controlled, legislation.
CARLISLE IWIKKVIE WEU. He Thinks He YYU1 Receive the Honor of Being tbe Next Speaker. LonsviLLK, Sept. 2 A special to the Courier-Journal from Frankfort eays: "Hon. and Mrs. John O. Carlisle are here, the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Will Saßeil, and will remain until after the inauguration of Governor Knott. In conversation with the CourierJournal correspondent, Mr. Carlisle said his candidacy for the United States Senate is just as it has always been, that it would be ridiculous in him to say he would not accept such a high position, if the people 6hould confer the honor upon him, but it would be untrue to say he was a candidate in the sense in which it is commonly viewed, buttonholine and trickstering for tbe vote of the General Assembly. He Faid he knew nothirg of Captain Ulack burn's intention to decline the race for the Speakership, and was first apprised of it by the Coirier Journal, which was brought to him at the Springs; tbat te does net yet know Captain Blackburn's intention resjecting his vote and inlicence, excepting tbat he is opposed to Mr. ltandall. lteparding the latter, he said that whilst he is somewhat crafty within tbe line of party organization, he is still politically honorable, and too good a Democrat to think of seeking the Speakership at the hazard of party interests, and that viewing the race in that light, the present indications cave him reason to believe that, Mr. Ilandall would really not permit his name to go bef ore the caucus, for be knows he will BtiilVr defeat. It is true, be continued complications may yet arle e of which I am ignorant, and I have no doubt Mr. Kandall will endeavor to draw some Southern or Western member in 1 be race, in order to break into my ranks, but since it requires ninety-nine to nominate, end I already hare more pledged votes than any other candidate, and nearly enough to secure the nomination, I think it very probable I will receive the honor of being the next Speaker " CUAI!1 BY llt'.NUEK. A father and Daughter Who Were Once Well OrT. Now Sadly Bedneed. WHF.r.uxi, W. Va., Sept. 1 One of the saddest cases that ever transpired here was brought to light ta day. In 1SS0, at the opening of the campaign, a man named Dreihorst, from Parkersbarg, established a weekly Greenback paper here. He had formerly run a similar paier, also the Daily Times, at Paikersburg. He failed there, and has sines been doing odd jobs of copymsr and occasional journalistic werk. Recently his wife li d and was buried at the County's expense, and charitable ladies oil'ered to employ Drei hörst' s daughter, Helena, a young lady of twenty, finely educated, as governess or teacher, but she refused, and also spurned financial aid. To-day the landlord of the mall room in which "Dreihorst and daughter lived, made an alliiavit before a Justice of tbe Peace that tbe youDg lady was crazy. Tbe Deputy Sheriff went to take her into custody, but was refased admittance to the room. He burst in the door, when he beheld a very heart-rending sight There were no clothes on the bed, and no furniture but broken chairs and an old bed, and a few boxes of dry bread and crackers were all the provisions to be found. Miss Driehorst fonght tbe officers like a tigress, but was finally removed in a carriage and confined. She has, beyond doubt, been cned by hunger and privation. The case awakens horror and sympathy among tha neighbors, who, though aware that the family were in poor circumstances, had no idea how bad the Utnation was. both father and daughter being too proud to make their wants known. Miss Dreihorst is a handsome girl, and before the darkening of her intellect, a sprightly conversationalist and a general favorite in sotitty. TOOK HIS OWN LIFE. A Watchman of the United States Treasury at Washington. Washington, Sept. 1. When the Treasury Department watch was changed at midnight to night, John Connelly, who was stationed in the north coal vault, just under the broad sidewalk of Executive avenue, was found dead. He had shot himself through the head sometime between 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon, when he went on dutyjand 1J o'clock to-night. The dim light of a single gas jet showed him lying on a pile of coal, which was bespattered with his brains and blood. He was in his shirt sleeves, his ccat ard vet lying beside him. Oi his breast he had pinned a sheet of the paper upon which internal revenue stamps are printed, bearing several discontected sentences. In one he accused his wife of infidelity. In another he accused two other watchmen, one of whom is the captain of the watch, of being the evise of his ditturbar.ee. Another addressed to the chief clerk of tbe department ran: ' Colonel Webster, pleae protect and provide for mv tJanghtera." Pelow it was another: " Kolter, interfere with Webster at your peril." 1 he lody was perfectly cold. Connelly was about fifty years olJ. " He had a wife and several daughters. He had been in the Treasury watch some twenty years. Tha discovery caused a sensation among the Treasury watch. The suicide is said to ba Unprecedented in the history of the Treasury department. 1)KJIANI A" INCREASE. Six Hundred Workmen In the Ohio Aline Oo On a. KtTtke.

VOLCANIC IIORKORS.
Seventj.FiTe Thonsand Persons Perlsb. In RoariD? Waves, Seething- Fire, or Sulphurous Ashes. Several Malay Islands Rent Into the 8easTfae Havoc In Java Widespread and Appalling;. New York, Aug. 00 A. London ciblegramsays: Further particulars of the great volcanic eruption in Java, which have just reached London from Batavia, show that the disaster was even more widespread and more disastrous than reported in yesterday's advices. At noon Sunday the eruption, and shecks were supposed to have reached their height, but late in the afternoon and evening 1 the violence of the disturbances suddenly increased, and the is'acd seemed to Ls about to be completely buried in fire and sulphurous ashes. At the same time the enormous waves began to dash with greater force upon i!ie shores, coming in some places far up into the interior, and great chasms opened in the ' earth and threatened to engulf a large pro- j portion of the people and buildings. About midnight the most frightful scene j of all took place. Suddenly an enormous j luminous cloud, similar to tbat which was teen over the Gunung Guntur, bat much j greater in extent, formed over the Kan Jang : range of mountains, which skirt the south- ! east coast of the island. This cloud gradual- , ly increased in size until it formed a canopy j of lurid red and whitish gray over a wide extent of territory. During this time the erup- j lions increased and streams of lava poured incessantly down the sides of the mountains, sweeping everything before them. Here and there a stream of lava would enter an arm of the nea or come in contact with the water of a river. Then the lava would sullenly produce boiling heat and rapid vaporization, but the superficial consolidation that almost 1 instantly ensued would prevent any further , contact with the water. Tbe figures that opened in this crest as it solidified on the ! fetream of lava emitted torrents of vapor, ex tending high in the air and making a tre- ' mendous seething sound, as it a thousiml lccomotives were simultaneously letting oil steam. Here and there the lava streams were like crystals cf feidpar arranged in trains r ne behind the ether in tbe direction nf the I'.ow of the current, and felaspathic sphero- j lites were rapidly formed in the vitreous natter, resembling those which fcrm in the slog of glass furnaces. None of the people inhabiting these places j or cf the natives scattered spursely through j Ibefcrett and on the plains etcaped death. TLis t cction of the island was not so densely , populated cs the other 'portions and the loss : was comparatively small, although it must : have BgtTf pafed 13,000 souls. The entire Kandang range of mountains. 1 ex'endicg along tbe coast in a semt-clrcle for ; about sixty-live miles, had gone out of sigt. The waters of ..Welcome I5ay. the Sundra Straits and Iepier Hay on the east, and of tbe Indian Ocean on tbe south had rushed in and formed a sea of turbulent waters. Here ' and there the peak of a crater was exposed , for a moment by tbe receding of a great wave and occasionally & pulf of brownish gray , smoke or a slight shower of rocks showed tbat the volcanoes still continued in active ' subaqueous eruption. The debris of the sub- ( merged and destroyed buildings was tossed hither and thither on tbe water, the sign left ; that there had once been inhabited land there. : The town of Tanoang, within twenty--live miles of the city of Uatavia, wai swspt away by the lava stream, and f ally half the population, mostly Japanese, numbering , about 1.S0O perished. At Spcelwyk. near ! Poin Salcis, the erd-hot rocks set fire to the hocsesand swept away, all the thickly-set- : tied portion of the town. About ten biz ars j belonging to Furopeans were de3trojed. I The loss of property is very large, but no lives are known to have been lod. The . Itiver Jacatra, on the banks of which Patavia is situated, was so completely . damaged by the lava and debris that its course was chanced, and from Franien bastion it Uowtddown through Tycers 6treet and joined the waters of the Itiver Fmerades, swelling tbat stream tu'suca an extent that it j rose high on the Castor batteries. Figeienknig was elmost totally destroyed, and a large number of Jives were lost there. The Island of Oniu?, five miles off the mcuth of the Targerang Itiver. and twenty ; tastof Patavia, was completely inundated, and the Heating dock there was totally de- , stroyed. t'-catoye, Clopp, and Tronwers Islands, of ' tbe portion of Jaa, wich disappeared, are still out cf sight, and not a vestige of them is left. Paby and Cherlho Islands otr the north cc:?t, lost the few houses and inhabitants upenttem. One cf the moit singular freaks of the erupticn was the carry irg in the midst of the , molten itess of a be d of to'.idicc of eaorincus size, which h8d been emitted from one ot the craters. It was carried along by the curreiit ar.d landed on t be extremity oi Point j Ft. Nkho as, at the northeast corner of the island. Ti e hed of icrf wes surrounded by a , thick envc 1 e of swnd and sxr:; which are ; rou-ctrndtftors of heat. It is turp wed.this ' ice Ltd formed the crust of tome tubterraLean Jake. About i o'clock on. Monday mo'ning the' great cloud suddenly broke into email sec ' ticjis ard quickly VAtiULed. A, the same lime frightful rumblings were heard, and the columns of lire and smoke over the southeast coiner of the island ceased to ascend, while the crateA in tbe other parts of Java s?emed ; to open their f.ery throats still wider to let out the greateet quantity of lava, rocks, pum- j ie and shcs yet vomited forth. The fciäsiDgcf the tea became to loul as to be almost . cVffenirg.

The roof ( of the Governor's house was crushed ia by a mafs of mud. and three of the retainers were killed. The town bridge was destroyed, the lMamond and Pearl bastions badly damaged, and the Pnrran redoubt destroyed.

although details of the horrors of the eruption continue to come. After the sudden subsidence of the disturbance of the kingdom of Bantam, on Monday, the eruptions seemed to lose their force for a time, aid the people of Batavia experienced a feeling of relief in the hope that the worst had been passed. The quieter condition continued until about 10 o'clock, wheD the craters once more be can to send up great masses of destructive matter, although without the force of the former action. The eruptions seem to be more violent at night than daring the day. By 11 o'clock the Papanddayang, which is ,0:X feet high, was in a very active state of paroxysmal eruption. It was accompanied by detonations said to have been heard many miles away in Sumatra. Three distinct columns of llame were seen to rise from the mountain to a vast height, and its whole surface soon appeared aa if covered with fiery lava stream-?, which appeared to great distances on all sides. Stones fell for miles around, and the black fragmentary matter carried into the air caused total darkness. A whirlwind accompanied this eruption by which rcofi, trees, men and horses were carried into the air. The quantity of ashej ejected was such is te cover the ground and roofs of honses at Denamo to the depth of several inches. Off Point Cady the Hoating pumice on the sea formed a layer two feet thick, through which vessels forced their way with great did culty. The rise of vapor produced the appearance of a column several thousand feet high based on the ede of the crater. It appeared from a distanci to consist of a mass of inaumerable c'.oba'.ar clouds of extreme whiteness, resembling vast bolls of cotton, rolling one over the other as they ascended, impelled by the pressure of fresh supplies incessantly urged upward bv the continued explosions. Ala great height the column dilated horizontally, and spread into a dark and turbid circular clod. shaped like an immense umbrella. Forked lightning of great vividness and beauty continually daried from diflereirt parts of the cloud. Suddenly the scene was changed. The mouLtain was kplit into seveo parld without a moment's warning, and where Papanddayacg had stood akne there were now seven dislicet peaks looming up to a great Leicht. I u the seams opened could be eeen great balls cf molten matter. From the timircs txurcd clouds cf steam, tnd the black ejected lapillo poured in steady streams ard ran slowly down the moanta?n side, formirg beds -200 or :0O feet in extent. 'Kxbalaticns cf carbonic acid gas were so aburdant tbat birds and animals in large numbers were killed by it, and a few hi: man beirgs lost their lives in the same way. Tail proved to be tbe turning point in the eruption, for the creat fissures opened sefmei ts ct as safety valves through which th streams of lava Kcntly flowed down the vallejs. The volcanic tires, though still burning at last advices, had lest most of their tietcenesf. and the steam generated found vent without beirog forced through the comI aratively narrow mouths of the old craters. One nf the queer incidents was the asdien risicp, duriDg Tuesday afternoon, of fourteen new volcanic mountains in the Straits of Sunda. forming a complete chain in almost a straight line between Point Su Nicholas, on the Javanese coast, and Hoga Point, on the coast of Sumatra, almost on tbe topj of what had been the Morak and Middle Islands, which sank into the eea on Monday. So serious are tbe changes in the coast and the entire formation of Straits of Sunda tbat the Britieh ' Government and the Lloyds this evening telegraphed from Ixmdon to all foreign points warning vessels that navigation cf these waters had become exceedingly dangerous. In the city of Bantam, where fifteen hundred persons were at firvt supposed to have perished, the bodies ot twenty-iight hundred have already been recovered. Some 000 inhabitants of the interior town of Warocge are now known toha-beea killed, and at Talatrs.on the coast, ; 0 bodies have been found. From all over tbe ialand come reports of loss of life and property, and it is thought at Ltatavia tbat tbe estimate of TÖ.CC0 killed will not prove excessive. On the lowlands of Batavia. where the waters have receded and quieted down, hundreds of bruised and mangled bodies are lying expesed. A sanitary corps haa been formed, and the corpses are being removed and buried cs tact as josaible, in order to prevent the breeding and spread of confaon. While there is some cause for anxiety on this score, it is thought the greater miineer of bodies in tie interior were so dried and scorched by tLe hot lava and stones that they will not putrefy, and the bodies of tboee drowned in tbe tidal wave can be taken care of with TCBicnable facility by the Coast Smitary Corps, new getting ready to work.

Tbe James Trial. G.uL.uiK, ifo., Sept, 3.-In the Frank James trial the proceedirgi did not begin until late ibis morning. Mrs. Frank James. accent psn'ed by her little boy, made her first appearance in the Court room dnrir.g the trial, and took a teat beside her husband. Tte Court announced that each side would be given ten hours in which to present their arguments, which will permit the case to go to tbe Jury Wednesday at noon. The Court, on motion, extended the time of the defense to twelve hours. Instructions for tbe Sute ar.d defendant were then read. The instruction for murder in the second degree does not anicuLt 10 much as it can only bs returned as separate from the robbery. The killing of M. C Miller by any member of the gang while ptrsuing robbery if tbe defendant is believed to have been one ot the party, is murder in the first degree. The instructions as to the credibility of witnesses were very clearsnd favorable to the defense, the Jury being instructed tbat the testimony of in associate in crime requires corroboration to the extent cf certainty. W. D. Hamilu, j. Prosecuting Attorney of this (Daviess) County, ereced the case for the State and spoke till the Court adjourned. John M. Glover will open for the defense.
