It has been arranged to have Engineer Mansfleld appear in the su- perfor court at West Kingston, next Monday morning, and make plea to the indictments. Coroner Everett A. Kingsley, of Westerly, has completed his inguest with the ‘assistance of Third Assistant Attorney General Otis, but the testl- mony was not all .transcribed from stenographlc notes and signed by all the witnesses until Frlday. The cor- oner will probably have his report complete and ready to flle with the clerk of the supericr court for Wash- ington county by next Monda I same day on which Engineer Mansfield will be arralgned under the indict- wments. He will plead not guilty and will furnish tho bonds of 00 for his appearance In the superior court when the cases against him are as- slgned for trial.
