BENCH.Trial of Joseph O\u2019Meara, CHARGED WITH CAUSING THE DEATH OF THE OLD MAN, CLIFFORD, IN AYLMER STREET.The trial of Joseph O'Meara was com- tinued yesterday afternoon and this morning.A number of witnesses were examined yesterday.Dr.Oscar F.Marcil gave evidence in regard to the wounds and the state of the deceased's heart.Paschal Parent, an old neighbor, was called, but could give no information: Alice O'Meara, sister of the accused, repeated the evidence given by her at the inquest.Clifford had addressed words to her which she considered insulting.Joe told him to let his sister alone.This was before 2.15 am.Joe did not strike Clifford then, and did not go out afterward.He made no threats.Dr.J.B.McConnell stated that ec- chymosis might occur as late as seven or even ten hours after death.Mrs.Kinsella, who lived opposite the deceased\u2019s house, deposed that she sat up with a sick baby all night and heard no noises.Mrs.Ford, 36 Aylmer street, deposed that noises had been heard by her husband early in the night, and people were seen running.Mr.Ford was called and said that he knew nothing against O\"Meara.Michael Hubbard's evidence did not differ from tha: given by him at the inquest.During the evening he had had several drinks.He saw the deceased fall, and aroused the inmates «f the house.He did not strike Clifford; they were the best of friends.Sidney Elliott deposed to emerging on the street from an adjoining saloon at two am.He eaw Mrs.Griffin running; and going to Clifford's, heard Dan say, \u2018 He's dead.\u2019 He staved around for half an hour.Jeremrah Chfford, Pierre Boulanger, and J.B.Biron, clerk of the ecromer\u2019s court, gave short accounts of their connection with the case.Drs.Johnston and llebbard were recalled to explain terms used by them with apparent dif: ferences, and the court then adjourned till this morning.Upon the opening of Court, this morning, Mr.H.J.Cloran, counsel for the defence, addressed the jury on behalf of his client.He claimed that unusual perse cution had been inflicted upon the accused: that unportant testimony heen suppressed at former inquines, and that some evidence had been got by urfair procedure.He also complained that not even in arrest nor detention had the privrner been fairly dealt with, He thouxht he might justly have claimed ivmussal of the case, at the close of the rewn's evidence, but had wished to prove more conclusively the innocence of the acetsed.The defense claimed that ns murder had been committal.The address occupied an hour and a half, and left nothing to be said.There was a commotion in court when sune reference was made to Mr.Man Clifford by the learned counsel, Mr.Clifford, who was present, did not relish.Springing to his feet and trenr bling with rage the old man shouted ar the top of his voice, \" You're a Dlo~wly liar \u2018 which was repeated several times while he was being escorted from the TOOM- The address by the Crown prasecutor, Mr.TJ.1.Cooke, was an able review of the evidence from the other side and occupied one hour and three quarters.He explained his view of the manner in which the duties of his office should le.conducted and which had been criticised by the defence.He cxonerated the officers of the law in the case and justified the position taken br the cormer and physicians who had acted on the case.He thought the contradictory evidence given unreliable, and stated that the the rv of the crown that O'Meara had done the deed and that ITubbard saw it done had been proven.A: 1.20 the court adjourned for dinner._\u2014\u2014 HE CAUSED NO DAMAGE.Judge Archibald this morning dismissed the action 1n the case of LL.FE.Germain vs.F.Langlois.This was an action for damages on the ground of verbal injuries.The (Court held that the words complained of having been spoken only to a third party, himself interested in the case and who was in a position to know whether or not they were juatified, Langlois could not be charged with having thereby caused damage to tue plaintiff, and the action must ber dismissed.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 A CLAIM SET ASIDE.Judge Archibald this morning dismise- ed the

bicycle and a grocer\u2019s express, which might have had fatal results.The bicycle was ridden by a young man named George Cain, who is employed at the Dominion Bridge Works, and the express by Mr.Camille Clement, grocer, St.Joseph street.The latter, who has a very fast horse, was pacing down the street with the bicyclist, when young Cain, seeing that Mr.Clement was driving too close to him, tried to dismount near the sidewalk.Just as he was dis mounting, the hind wheel of the express caught the bicycle, hurling the rider with great force on to the sidewalk.The bicyele caught in the wheel and struck Mr.Clement very severely on the head.Young Cain now has a had- lv damaged arm and a very sore knee, while Mr.Clement is badly cut on the head.The bicycle is a total wreck.ce\u2014\u2014 TI

WITNESS.SCRAPS.WHY THE TRAIN SLOWS.He was an observing man and was not in the habit of allowing the slightest details of anything or amy event to escape his eye.He stood on tie station platform and watched the heavy overland trains pulling out for the west.Each ome of them seemed to come nearly to a stop just after pulling out of the station.* Stopping to let some one off?\u2019 he eked of a railway man standing near him \u2018No.Looks as if they were, doesn't 1t?Well, that fools lots of people,\u2019 said the railway man.\u2018Some people think they stop to let off some one who stayed on top too leng, and some one who stop to put off a tramp.Neither of these reasons is right.All engineers bring their trains to a stom or nearly so after pulling out of a terminal station in order to test the air breaks and see that they are in working order.Moat engineers try the air just after pulling out of a station, but on most reads the rule is that they try the brakes within two miles of the station.\u2019 POOR BUT VALUABLE RAND.Several months ago a local company bought a carload of crushed ore in Mexico.Advices were duly and officially received that the ore had been shipped\u2014 twenty toms of it.Weeks slipped away, and the ore did not come.The smelting company politely asked the local agents of the railway company when it should arrive.The local agent said he had never heard of it.The smelting ¢om- pany then appealed to the general agent.The general agent gave d up\u2014if it was a conundrum.Along the line the question passed until it reached a potent official, who started on a tracer for the carload of crushed ore.A tracer is a document on which every agent, train conductor and other person who had anything to do with a shipment must say whence he took it and where he Jaid it down.From the mine in Mexico the car-load of ore was traced from junction point to junction point, from station to station, until it was well within the railway company's local yards and thence to a side-track by a roundhouse, and imito the possession of the master mechanic.A carload of crushed gold ore looks like a lot of coarse, vallow sand, and \u2018this particular carload had been knocked abont and digsreepec*- ed as a carload of common sand should be.When the officials were notified that the tracer bad chased the car to the master mechanic's track, they sent him a note asking him of the disposition of the car.giving ts number.The master mechanic turned the note over and endorsed on the back : \u2018The car contained a bad quality of sand.Some of it I used in the sandboxes of the engines, but * was not ser vicealble, so I had it scattered along the right of way.The railway oompany paid the smelter cmpany a hundred and eighty dollars à ton for the sand.\u2014Kansas City \u2018Star.\u2019 A CONTINUOUS TRAGEDY.Down on Fourth avenue, New York, there is a small girl whose life ie a tragedy\u2014and a continuous performance, ton She told a good-natured old gentleman about it the other day when he went into ber father's shop to buy a canary.A bird shop is a confusing sort of place, and the old gentleman wandered about in a dazed, nearsiglited way, listening to the prprictor's account of the virtues sf each bird.Finally he took a famey to an aggressive canary that hurl- sl torrents of musical defiance at the would-le purcharer.The owner of the shop was called away for a few scconds, and presantly the old gontlemun became conscisus of a scrap of a girl who was looking at hum out of ag, tearful eyes.\u201c Pleath,

MANCHESTER.Ald.James W.Southern, of Manchester, whose recent visit to Montreal In connection with the Manrhester Ship Canal, and & new line of boats from Manchester to Montreal, will be pleasantly remembered, has presented to the McGill University library some valuable copies of Manchester muni- clpal records, Including \u2018Constables\u2019 Accounts,\u201d \u2018Court Leet Records,\u201d \u2018Historigul Records,\u201d \u2018Municipal Code\u2019 aud \u2018Treasurers\u2019 Accounts.\u201d Ald.Southern ig am authority upon the history of Manchester, beth past and present, and the records now at McGill are all the more valuable because of his wisdom in selecting them.In his \u2018Outlines of the History of Manchester,\u201d read by his son, Mr.Frank Southern, B.A., while ne was in Canada, Ald.Southern, after an admirable resume of the events closely relating to Manchester from the earliest times, thus concludes: \u2018Houses were being erected in every suburb by hundreds, but the demand continued to outstrip the supply.and he would be a daring man who attempted to describe the Manchester of a quarter of a century hence.And this was the moral he wished to draw from the past history of the city: That all which natural position or fortunate circumstances may have done for Manchester would have been as nothing but for the strength, Intelligence, and vigor of Lancashire men.It is to their pluck and energy, far-sightedness and sagacity, prudence and Integrity.that Manchester owes its position to-day: and it is in these manly and Christian qualities that the best and surest hope of its future rests.\u2019 \u2014 WESTMINSTER CHURCH.The Westminster Presbyterian Church, Westmount, will have speclal annlversary services next Sunday.June 12, both in the morning and evening.This congregation was organized on April 26, 1892, and during that summer a lot was purchased on At- water avenue, near St.Antoine street, ond on the first Sunday in May, 1593, the school room was opened.Since that time the membership has more than doubled, while the Sunday-school is over three times as large as at the time of organization.It was considered best by the officers of the church to postpone the services until the present, as they would then be able to secure the services of some of the delegates to the General Assembly.It ls not yet known who the speakers will be, but they will be the very best men obtainable.At each service there wiil be a special collec tion taken to help remove the debt now on the church, and it is the desire of the congregation to see the debt entirely wiped out, and this will enable them to begin operation on the main building at once.The pastor, the Rev.M.Stewart Oxley, FA.deserves the support of all Presbyterians in Montreal for the way he has carried on the work under many obstacles, in a great mra- sure due from want of church accommodation, but it is hoped that this wlll be overcome in the near future, and a neat little church standing there will show what hard and zealous work from paster and people can do.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN'S MISSIONS.The quarterly meeting of the Woman's Missionary Society (Presbyterian), will be held In St.John's French Presbyterian Church on Friday, June 10, at 3 o'clock.Margaret McKellar, M.D, and Margaret O'Hara, M.D., returned missionaries from India, will address the meeting.As this meeting is expected to prove of peculiar interest a good attendance is desirable.\u2014_ THE INSURANCE WAS NULL.Judge Davidson, yesterday, had to dismiss an action taken by Mrs.Cooke to recover from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company the amount of an insurance policy taken out by her on the life of her seven year old boy.who died the following year.The poor mother had failed to mention the previous serious illness cf her son from heart disease, and that voided the Insurance under the terms of the policy.BAR COMMITTEE APPOINTED.Besides electing officers for the ensuing year, the general council of the Bar.at their meeting yesterday, appointed a committee to study the question of official reports with a view to tmprove the reporting of the decisions of the courts.A committee was also named to report upon the tariff of fees to be charged in consequence of the coming Into force of the new Code of Procedure.\u2014__ HAVE NO USE FOR ENGLISH.The municipality of the United Townships of Robertson and Pope, tn the County of Ottawa, has petitioned the Lieutenant-Gov- ernor-in-Council for authorization to publish all its proceedings in the French l!lan- |

of theorirs are being put forward as to the cause for this falling off on the part of the Royals, and the majority seem to agree that the good living they are getting in Montreal, has something to do with their detericration.Toronto, meanwhile, has recovered her positton sonewhat by drinie- ing at that perennial source of victory-\u2014 Springfield.Montreal will commence inflating her score Jn the same way this afternoon.Buffalo and Springfield continue at the bottom of the field, while the other clubs remain In the middle distance.Herr is the score showing the standing of the clubs: STANDING

appear for Springfield.YESTERDAY'S GAME.After an eoxclting game, which lasted for ten Ivoings, and during which each side led tor a time, the Montreal team were again defeated by a score of elght to seven.Three vrrors following each other in the first inning practically lost the game for the Royals.The Providence team flelded well, and only made one error, which was, however, very costly.The fielding and peneral playing of the home team showed a marked advance over the showing of the last few days, but there is great room for imprevement still.Souders and Rudderham cid the pitching for Montreal and Providence respectively, and the local man had slightly the best of it.Jacklitz was behind the bat once more, and put up his usual clever play.The gaine was remar«- able for the large numder of home runs made.Montreal went to bat first and were put out in short order.Providence were more fortunate, and got a lead of three runs.Caravan reached first on Henry's error, stole second and got home on Lyons's hit.Lyuch advanced Lyons to second, and got te first safely because Schicbeck, although standing a few feet from second base, could not pick up the ball.Chrisham then forced Lyrch out at second, and Drauby's single, together with Sheéaron's error, brought Yyons and Chrisham home.At last the awful procession of errors was over, aud the next two men weve retired.From this time to Spe end of the game the Royals fielded well.In the second inning one run was made by Montreal.Schieheck made a two-base bit, and stole third in the most daring manner, just as Miller got his base on balls.The latter then started to steal second, but when Leahy threw to Canavan, he ran back, and before he was put out Schtebeck had scored.e and Shearon got bases on balls, and the former scored on Bannon's hit, while for Providence Lynch hit safely, stole secoud, came home on Chrisham\u2019s triple, and the latter scored on Welgand\u2019's out at first.Schlebeck knocked the ball over the fence the next inning, thus making Montreal's score three against Providence's five.Lynch got his base on balls in the fifth inning, ond after stealing second scored on some outs.Montreal now woke up and began to do some hitting and base running.Canavan\u2019s error and Miller's hit scored one in the sixth, but it was in the seventh that Rud- derkam\u2019s balls got knocked all over the field, and thecrowd got a chance to shout themselves hoarse, when Montreal tled the score and went one better.Barry started things going with a nice drive, which sent the ball neatly over the fence at

EXISTING DIFFICULTIES WITII THE UNITED STATES \u2014 SENATE AND THE PLEBISCITE.Ottawa, June 7.\u2014When the House of Commons reassembled et three o'clock yesterday, Mr.Bertram, of Toronto, resumed the discussion on the ill-treatment of the men employed on the construction of the Crow's Nest Paæ Railway.In - his opinion very grievous wrongs have been inflicted on the men and he was glad to hear the Premier say that the government would look into it at the viose of the session.Mr.Jamison, of Winnipeg, said that the report of the commission revealed a disgr.ceful page in the history oi Can- He was not surprised at the revelations, because, after a residence of seventeen years in the North-West, Jie ada.couid say that the course the C.P.R.adopted in this matter was in line with that which it adopted in other matters.It was about time to demonsirate that the people of Canada were the masters | aud not the servants of this railway com- i | pany.To illustrate tne ill-treatment of the men and the mmposttions practiced on them, Mr.Jamieson read from the report which appeared first in the Winnipeg \u2018Free Press.He helieved there had been a violation of contract and as the men could mot obtain redress from the courts the government should retain out of the subsidy sufficient money to compensate these men and their relatives wiitever they have suffered, and pay them damages for whatever losses they had incurred.Mr.Richardson said he had heard that under the arrangement between Mr.Haney, tha manager of construction, and the C.P.R., Mr.Haney would profit by this grinding of the men who had been treated in the most brutal fashion.The blame belonged to the company.Mr.Rogers took the case as illustrating the need of a railway commission, Mr.Robertson, of Toronto, used some more very extreme language such as he had employed at the morning sitting and again talked about bringing the directors to the bar of the House and having the member for West Toronto, Mr.Osler, who 13 a C.P.R.director, admonished iv his ntiment in the country wag strong enough te secure the enforcement of a prohibitory law.The vote polled might he so small that it would not he an indication af the feeling but only an evidence of indifference ¢n the part of the people on the question.Tt would be the duty nf the government to ure its judgment as to whether the vote taken is an expression of the popular will in favor or against prohibition ©r not.Senator Perley\u2014Can the government say when the vote will take place ?Hen.David Milis\u2014No; that will have - to be decided later 10 swt public convenience.A bill further to amend the act respecting public officers, empowering the to establish a system of itself guaranteeing against loss by de falcation of public servants by ereating |

guarantee company.METHODIST ITINERANCY.TORONTO CONFERENCE CLERGY FAVORABLE TO ITS EXTENSION TO FOUR OR FIVE YEARS Toronto, June 8.\u2014The Stati-ming Committee of the Toronto Conference in connection
