cumneneeniniean Avaust 27. AFTERNOON SESSION,

Susan Ingles, sworn : L saw a wagon come up from Tlobkirks. It rested in the middle of the street and across the little bridee. It remained there about twenty minutes. Rose Chiverie was standing close by the wagon. i was standing some distance behind her. Rose was talking to the two men in the wagon. Did not hear what they said. | heard a few words from the men but not from Rose. I heard the voice say something about ‘the master’s horse.” Did not know what it meant. Iwas not acquainted with Rose before that night. Iam sure they were standing twenty minutes. I under- stood them to mean that Rose had a drive before with that horse. One of the men had dark clothes and a high cap witha

. a oe: SF )L would know your horse’s gait. Being would not know them again. ‘They had‘

thew eoats drawn about their faces. I never saw James Millner in that locality that I know of. I don’t know who threw the stone. Isaw my brother Dave there that night about half-past nine. He said it was time we were in the hovse and off the street. Isuppose he said so for my own good. He advised me not to go with the men in the wagon. Dave is married and hasafamily. Itold him [I would not go with the men. I did not see him throw a stone. Ido not know who threw stones. I swear the men in the wagon did not ask m? or Rose to go with them.

David Ingles, sworn: I told the Coroner all I knew about the shooting case. Myself and Rose are good friends. I first saw the wagon in front of George Ryan’s door, pass- ing along slowly towards Rochford square. [saw my sister there. I said to her she had better be in the house. They appeared

to be men that were in the wagon. I did not throw astone at the wagon. I picked

up no stone to throw. I did not see George Kelly till I picked him up after being shot. He might have thrown a stone. I did not see Lily Ryan. If she says I threw a stone she swears false. Ido not know the char- acter of Rose Chiverie. I merely know that she lives in that neighborhood by seeing her there. I heard the shots and heard Kelly call out ““O my God Tm shot.” I turned back and ran. I know James Millner slightly. Never saw him in the Bog. I saw William Potter just as I went up to Kelly. 1 don’t know where he came from. Kelly said he was shot in the breast. I put my hand inside his clothing and found blood there. We took him into Byers’ and thence to his mother’s.

John Higgins, sworn : night of the 14th inst. Louis Johnston came in about 10 o'clock. He went for his father after that. He was not more than 10 minutes away—perhaps less. He re- mained in fer the night. I don’t know if any one came with him that night. He was sober, and not intoxicated. I did not see James Millner with him that evening. {saw him at breakfast next morning. He did not come to dinner. It might be ten o’elock previonsly, that Isaw a_ pistol with him. Ithink it was a revolver cf small size. He was shooting cats with it. Ido not know what became of it afterwards.

John Hughes, sworn: The evidence of John Hughes and Hugh McDonald did not ditfer from what they had previonsly given at the Inquest.

I remember the

August 28.

John Flood, sworn: On Wednesday evening, the 14th inst., I was on Pownal Street. I saw a wagon with James Miilner and another in it pass up the street towards Thorne’s. I knew Millner. I heard one of the men in the wagon say ‘‘ By God we'll do it to-night.” The other answered, ‘* Yes, by Christ we will do it.” This was about half-past nine. I just saw them as I went along the platform east of Rochford Square. ‘They drove a dark horse and an open single-seated wagon. I saw Millner’s face. I am well acquainted with him. Mill- ner wore light clothes and a dark felt hat. I went towards Rochford Street, and sat on the Schoolhouse steps. David Inglis came along and spoke to me. I sawa wagon come .from . Hobkirk’s, and turn on the crossing of Fitzroy and Rochford Street. I then heard three shots in succession, and gaw the flashescome fromthe wagon. They appeared as if fired low. It was quite bricht. I could see the wagon quite plain- ly. Duster was with me on the steps. I went to follow the wagon to see who fired the shots, and I asked Duster to go another way. I followed and Jost sight of them when I went

another by Thorne’s, going very fast. I met a wagon coming from the Asylum, and asked the persons in it if. they knew who wasin the other wagon. I then returned.

Francis Cusack, sworn: (Mr. Hodgson asks that this witness be examined under a special form of oath, requiring him to an- swer all questions that may be put to him.) i have gone to school. I go to church.

| thing thrown against the wagon. It ap- peared to come froma Ryan’s corner. After

the stone was thrown, the wagon was driven m, turned round quickly, and then shots were fired from it. 1 did not see Kelly till lt heard him ery ont he was shot. The wagon drove off again towards Hobkirk’s. Have no idea who the men ia the wagon were,

Patrick Hand, sworn: Between nine and ten en the night of the 14th 1 heard shots fired. Ithen came out of my own gate- way, nearly opposite Dr. Hobkirk’s. 1 saw two men drive a horse and wagon round the corner, from Rochford to Euston Street. They drove rapidly—rate ©f 7 or 8 miles an hour. The horse was dark and the wagon single-seated. Just as the wagon was turn- ing the corner, the man nearest me said, ‘** | know the buggar who threw the stone.” It was the tallest who said this. The other man said, ‘‘T have him.” ‘The horse’s gait took my attention, and I said to myself, ‘*'That’s Millnmer’s horse.” | knew the

bright moonlight, | saw the horse clearly on turning the corner. Don’t know who the men were. I know Millner has two black horses. I know the gait of each. I know this was the smaller one. I told the Marshal I knew it was Millner’s horse.

John A. McKenna, jr. : I was out in company with Francis McCarron on the evening of the 14th, a little after 8 o'clock. I saw James Millner and another drive in a light wagon with a dark small horse. His companion was young and smaller than himself. I saw them go past Newson’s. Millner was driving on the left side. He wore a ‘‘bucko” cap with large peak. He had dark clothes on. The other hada dark hat on, but [ took no further notice of him.

Franeis P. McCarron, sworn.—On the evening of the 14th I was out with the last witness. I saw James Millner and another young man driving ina light wagon. I did not know the other young man. Millner wore dark clothes and a tall cap with a long! peak. I took no notice of the other man. Millner was driving.

Pius McKinnon, sworn.—I was about the schooner ‘‘ Maria Catherine,” getting breakfast, on Thursday morning, the 15th inst., between 7 and 8 o'clock. I went down aft into the cabin and saw the strange men then. They were talking with the Captain— Robinson—(witness points to the elder Mr. Johnson, and also his son Louis, and identified both.) The elder Mr. John- son went on deck and asked the son to come up, but he answered ‘‘ no, uot now.” The Captain told me to ‘‘ get two quilts and make a bed with them in the run aft, and stow the young man away there.’ I did so.

The opening to this place is sma'l. Only one person could get in atatime. Before

making the bed we were alone in the cabin, the Captain having gone on deck. I saw Johnson was in trouble and so [ asked him what the matter was. He said ‘* They are after me for murder.”” I said ‘* What did you do?” He answered ‘I shot a man dead last night.” f said, ** That is a bad job.” It was,then about 8 o’clock. After dinner I went ashore, and again at 5 o’clock after getting supper I went ashore again. About dark the elder Mr. Johnson came to me and told me *‘If I put the boy away safely | would be well rewarded for it.” I brought the young man food before this. Between 10 and 12 o'clock at night I went tothe station to report to the Marshal that Johnson was on board. Not seeing him I told Policeman Shea. I had some liquor then but was not drunk. I told Sheal wanted $5 for telling where the young man was. Shea told me I would get that. When the Marshal came [told him something, but don’t remember it very well. I then went back to the vessel and went aboard. I was there while the police made the search and the arrest. I proceeded then to the run. He was not there. I got a light and went into the hold, when | saw Johnson coming towards me, and he told me he would give himself up.

court that I asked money for giving infor- mation. I got money from Johnson to get him things. I brought him a basketful. I asked him for fifty cents. I got fifty more for helping to carry a trunk. I also had a little of my own money. I know I asked $5 of the police for giving information of Johnson. I was sorry for it afterwards. I did not think I was asking blood money.

SYDNEY COAL.

REDUCTION IN PRICE!

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC!

fFXHE GENERAL MINING ASSOCIA.

TION (Limited) beg to intimate to the Publie that the price of SYDNEY COAL has been

Reduced to $2 per ton of 2240 ibs., a price which it is hoped will place it within the reach of all consumers,

‘The opening of the new winning at ‘* THE SYDNEY MINES” and the fact that the SYDNEY COAL now being shipped is all from the DEEP taken in connectioa with re- cent improvements in the process of screening, affords purchasers a positive guarantee of the very superior quality and condition of the SYDNEY COAL now offered for sale.

It is a well-know fact that for many years past the prices of other Cape Breton coals have been regulated by the rates fixed for SYDNEY COAL; but while it is true that other coals, to get a sale at all, have been pressed on the market at various prices under the current rate of SYDNEY COAT, it is no less true that, taking into account the superior lasting qualities of SYDNEY COAL when compared with other Cape Breton coals, the advantage, both as to economy and convenience, is in favor of SYDNEY COAL, even at a much higher price.

The General Mining Association (Limited) regret that they should again have to caution the Public against the attempts being made from time to tizne to induce them to buy in- ferior coals purporting to be ‘‘ EQUAL TO SYDNEY,” ““SUPERIOR TO SYDNEY,” etc., etc., while some yet more unscrupulous vendor; have not hesitated to advertise their

‘coal as 'SY DNEY COAL (from some designated

locality). All these efforts to sell coal by such means are only so many admissions on the part of those who make them of the sTANDARD character of SYDNEY COAL,

It has come to the knowledge of the Asso- ciation that in frequent instances parties giving orders to truckmen and others for SYDNEY COAL have been furnished with other and inferior coal. The Public are cautioned against permitting themselves to be imposed apon in
