evidently chagrined though they hardly expected the would pass owing to the great pressure brought to bear against it as they claim by the friends of Harrison and of Cleveland both of they think urged tho defeat of the measure The democratic senators wore not prised at the vote against the iis few of them so sanguine as to expect its ultimate passage at this sion and all seemed to the utter hopelessness of attempting to bring the nil up again for this The republican silver senators ain that the action of the house does lot by any means mean the death of the finally Senator Stewart being parti sanguine in his belief that the will again be brought to the rout at the next session of congress and Koine so far that he thought hat if congress was in session two months the would pass both owing to the revolt In feeling It Is quite certain however that the lull wilt not in my form come up in thn senate again this session as everybody is con- inced that it is now too late in the session

Physician Noble and the judge did the ining of the few witnesses in behalf of the state and Collier acted as Ills own at- torney lie did not appear to as good advantage In court as formerly The conduct of his own case was marked by bitter personal attacks on the witnesses most of whom he claimed to have aided in some way at some time and he bitterly reproached them their manner of re- paying him The policy of the court seemed to be to let him show himself by ills own actions The proceedings began by Collier filing a motion for a chance of venue on the ground that Judge Brown would not give him a fair and impartial trial That denied ho petitioned to have the trial heard in the county building as it would be more convenient for the host of prominent people he intended ti summon as witnesses The petition asked many other things and resolved itself Into evidence against its author Some of the witnesses he called liars and per jurors and others he threatened to prose cute for libel if they swore he was in- sane When not caustic or actually in- he was witty and brilliant aut created much amusement by his sullies on the witnesses At times he fairly stormed and ordered all
