Laxcor¥, June 16, —[Special to Tne Ber. | — Bome sensational testimony was, sprung today in the mayorality contest inaugurated } by Graham against Weir, and more is promised by the Weir men. Weir is oppos- ing the motion of Graham to have a recount of tho votes on the ground that some skull- duggery has been indulged in, and that the ballots were allowed to remain exposed in the council chumber from 12 o'clock on the 4 nightof the canvass until noon of the fol- " lowiug day, where any one could have gotten at them. They also assert. but not in court, J their beliof that the Bohanan fire, a block from the city hall, that night, was set by % “some one who desired to get a chance at the ballots and wanted ‘all the firemen who usunlly sleep in tho building away from th Ex-City Clerk VanDuyn was the first wit- ness callod, He said he was routed out of bed at 3 o'clock, the morning after the can- | vass by S, M. Melick, a Graham partisan, \ who said that there was going to be a con- test over the mayorality, and suggested that he take better care of the ballots. He A accompanied Melick to the Winasor hotel, a blook fron the city hall, but didn't go over, as everything looked all right from there. He spent two hours at the hotel, and at5 o'clock went over. He didu't think any- thing had been disturbed, but didn't know. 8 The ballots were placed in a gunnysack the next afternoon, and afterwards sealed up in ! a tin box by a workman. Snw a Light, Robert Malone, chief of the fire depart- ment. testified thatat 3 o'clock that morn- ing he came from the fire to his house just across the street to change his clothes. ~ Ho saw a light in the council chamber, and at 5 o'clock, when the fire v out, we to hig sleeping room in the city hall, and when he'passed the door of the council chamber the light was still burnin He looked in, but saw no one.

These four points and the date of the meeting are yet to be selected. Hussey Not Gullty. The only sensational feature in the Hussoy murder trial = was the testi- mony of Dr. Giffen, whom tho dead man told on his death bed that he had reached down to help Hussey into the car and the revolver was accideutally discharged. The evidence of Dr. Giffen, Dr. Knapp and others familiar with the young man’s acts since his incarceration and the history of his case, a8 shown by the depositions from Dayton, O., testified that they beliaved that he was insane. At 5 o'clock the evidence was all in and the case was submitted with- out argument. About 7:30 the jury returned into court with a verdict of “acquittal. Hussey will leave tomorrow morning with his futher for his old home in Dayton. Ensy of Acces, C. G. Bullock, agent of the school board, testified that several precincts had not vurned in their school ballots, and he went up to the city hall the day after the canvass 10 look for them. 'The boxes coutaining the ballots were piled in a semicircle inside the row of councilmanic desks, Ha helped him- self to the ballots he wanted, which had been thrown in with city envelopes. He noticed that the envelopes of some were torn. VanDuyn and his deputy were in and out, and at times as many as fifteen or twenty peonle were in the room. There was lgpnmully no restriction as to toying with the boxes. The law states that i it can be proven that ballots have been left whero they could have beon tampered with, a recount must be refused. The developments have created cousiderable of a sensation in tho city, Attaching Their Property, Suits in attachment aggregating $20,000 were filed in district court today against Kendall & Smith, the millers, whose partinl failure was noted in Te BeE some weeks since.

CERTAIN CHARGES TO BE DISMISSED Final Evidenco In the Case Reeelved from Washington—The Bank Wrecker De- clares His Intention of Faclng the Music Tomorrow Morning. As nearly as can be ascertained from inti- mate associates of both sic and in the absence of positive assurances from the rincipal actors, who are not disposed to be atall communicative, it is atlust practically certain that Charles W. Mosher, the wrecking president of the Capital National bank, will stand up before a jury in the federal district court and plead guilty to several of the charges-in the indictments against him, in consideration of cortain others being dismissed, and will then re- ceive the sentence of the court. Mr. Mosher haa breakfast with an ex- state oficial yesterday, and upon parting with him said: “Well, good bye. I probably won't seo you again for a good while, as I am going he- fore the federal court tomorrow morning and plead guilty.” Prosocntor Baker's Notlon of It. It has been conceded by Prosccuting At- torney Baker from the start that there were @ nuriber of charges that could not be sus- tained by positive proof, but that there wero others from which there was no oscape un- leas the In'upnsil[uh to compromise was ac- copted. It was stated that the charges of fraudulently diverting the money of the bank. while undoubtedly based on actual fact, were somewhat short of positive fact, but that the falsification of the books and records of the bank, the issuance of fraudulent certificates and the deception practiced to mislead the other officers of the bank, as well as the bank ox- aminer and the compiroller, could bo readily proven. It isin the air around the federal building that itis to those latter charges that the vlea of guilty is to be made, and it ise rumored that, in consideration plea, the minimum sentence, five years in the penitentiary, will be imposed. No such arrangement has been definitely made, as the court does not make deals of that kind, but if that is the understanding betwoen the prosecuting attorney and the defense, it is safe to say that it will be pretty nearly carried out, as the recom- mendation of the prosecution along this line would receive considerabl: tention. Attorney Baker and Mosher were in close consultation for over an hour yesterday. Mr. Baker was asked about the situa- tion, but said that there was liitle informa- tion to be given out. He saia he ‘“hoped tho defense would conclude to enter a plea of guilty, as it would result in saving cousiderable time, as the case of the United States against Mosher was one from which there was no escape, and the defend- ant would have to take his medicine. He had hoped, in the intcrest of tho d: of the bank, that the offer of acompromise would be accepted, and he had given the de- fense every opportunity to bring about such a state of affairs, but it had been unsuccess- ful, and he should perform the duty devolv- ing upon him as prosecuting attorney. He had postponed the taking up of the case as long as possible without allowing it to go over the term, and he felt that this was extending as much/courtesy to tho other side as was proper for him todo. He intil mated that the case would be taken up to- morrow morning. When asked how long it would last he rephed that he could not say. Has no Chanco to Escape. To a lawyer, who came in afterwards and asked what there was in court to be dis- posed of before he could ta up a civil case, the urbune prosecutor replied that he could et ready to go ahead atonce, as “very little time would be occupi in disposing of the remainder of the business of this oftice for this term,”" which goes to confirm the rumor that the Mosher case will bo quickly dis- posed of this morning. It is understood that evidence on the art of the prosceution, which has been lacking, has been secured from Washington, and that there is no loop- hole through which the bank-wrecker can escape, even if he concluaes at the last moment to fight the case to the final ditch. It is stated that the federal statutes pre- scribe the same minimum penalty, five years, for all of the crimes alleged against Mosher, and that he cannot escape a sentence to the pen for that period except on the singlo charge of issuipg fraudulent certificates of deposit, for which the penalty is a fine of $1,000. The prosecuting attorney was asked about a plea of that kind, and he said that he would not accept a plea like that alone. e Chicago Beach Hotel.

Lt ), Manager. itz il Fired at &« Runaway, Yesterday morning about 8 o'clock people in the vicinity ot the city hall were startled by two shots being fired in quick succession, and the civy employes fairly tumblea over cach other to reach the outside of the building while tho excitement was on. As they omerged from the Farnam street entrance they espied o horse and a badly wrecked light wagon turning the Eighteenth street corner north, The policeman on this beat was standing coolly on the corner viewing the fleeing animal, with o smoking revolyer in his hands. The horse bad started at Nineteenth street, and ashe came down Farnam the ofticer discharged his firearm twice in tho hope of stopping him. Instead of having the desired offect the report of the ofiicer's gun only frightened tho more and he turned his course up Eighteenth stroot and fairly flew through space, leaving remnants of the wagon ut overy obstruction encoun- tered. “As the runaway dissppeared from view the ofticer pocketed his weapon, and he appeared disappointed because his new method of stopping a runaway horse was a failure. The officer said in explanation that he sprang in front of tho horse and shot in the air to divert the courso of the runaway, after vainly endeavoring to stop him otherwise. The streots were crowded and he did this to save human life and destruction o¢ vehicles.

Chauncey M. Depew arrived from New York today to visit the fair. In course of a eonversation with a reporter, Mr. Depew was asked what his road and other eastern roads proposed to do in regard to the question of popular excur- sion rates to the World's fair. He had this 10 say in roply: ‘‘We shall make an excursion rate that will be satisfactory to everybody and, I be- lieve, that all eastern railways wil| do tho same when the proper time arrives, We shall run weekly or semi-weckly excursions to Chicago which willnot in anywise interfere with our regular service. Up to this time any attempt on the partof the railroads to run such excursion trains would have been ataloss and no railroad company will enter into any business which does not promise to make an adequate return. Now that the exposition is completed, Chicago can look forward to a tromendous inpouring of the people from all parts of the country and she can feol assured that the railroad companies will do their duty to bring the people here as quickly and as comfortably as is within their power.’ Speaking of the financial condition of the country, Mr, Dopew said: “It is largely a matter of sentiment.
