The State Endeavoring to Find Who is Responsible for Taking It. ‘The defense. in the Tony Frank murder trial introduced their testimony yesterday morning. The first witness examined was J. C. Reeves, who was recalled to show that from the position in which Mr. and Mrs, Struble were sitting in the front room they could not sce Chronister and Mrs. Reed in the kitchen, althoug they bad previously testified that they could see both of them. Observer L. C. Welsh of the signal office was the next witness and testified as to the state of the weather on the night the mur- der was committed. Ho stated that snow fell and the weather was generally cloudy. C. O. Connors was the next witness and was called for the purpose of showing that, in ‘the position in which it had been shown Chronister was sitting, his head would have been so low down, with reference to the window through which he was shot, that the shot would have blown the whole top of his head off instead of having the effect it did. Judge Doane anda jury took up the case of Andelucia Murray ninhlst Judge L. H. Bradley. The suit was brought to recover $200 for a horso which was killed and a car- riago which was damaged in o runaway ac- cident on July 4 of the present year. ~ The petition alleges that Judge Bradley hired the carriage in question at the plaintiff’s livery atable and the Lorses ran away, smashing the carriage and injuring one of the horses so that it died. The plaintiff seeks to recover 8200 for the horse and the damages to the vehicle. ‘The trial of the caseof Edward Nelson* against William R. Long was commeeced in Juafiu Doan’s court yesteaday afternoon. Both of the parties are wealthy farmers re- siding near Waterloo, in the western part of the county. There is trouble between the two men and itis of long standing. In his selillou Nelson asks for £5,000 to patch up a amaged reputation, and he also alleges that Long is the cause of all his trouble. Accord- ingto the testimony Nelson borrowed some money of Long, which he did not pay. Long insisted upon payment, but the money was not forthcoming, and afew nights later an efigy was hung in a public place and plac- arded, “William R. Long, 10 per cent per month.” This made Long wad and he turned in and circulated a remonstrance against the appointment of Nelson to the po- sition of postmaster of the town. Inaadition to this, Nelson now charges that Long circu- 1ated @ report that he was & thief and ought to be in the penitentiary, and would be there Af ho got his Just dues.
