THE KELLY MURDER. Proceedings at the Inquest. OFFICERE TESTIMONY

~—,

Patrick Shea, policeman, sworn : About a quarter to 12, on the night of the 15th, | accompanied the City Marshal to go in search of the prisoner Johnston, who was on board a schooner at Duncan's Wharf. After some time searching, we found the bey in the main hatch. After assisting the boy out of the main hatch, he said: ‘1 will go with you; I will have to suffer for what I have done.” We took him on to the wharf, and the Marshal commenced to search him. He asked lnm for his pistol, and he said he gave it to his father. When taking him up the wharf, he said to the Steward : ‘‘ Youhave made a_ big thing of selling my life.” The Marshal teld him to give over talking, as he was our prisoner. The Marshal gave me in charge of him to take him = from the Station to the Courtroom. After being some time in the Court room I heard him say, ‘‘There were three shots fired, but with no bad in- tention.” He asked how long the boy lived after the shots were fired. I said about fifteen minutes. I know nothing further.

To Mr. Palmer—I was there when the

ing in the vessel. He said, “If you give me five dollars I will tell where Johnston is.” He did not get that amount, to my knowledge. He had liquor in him, but he was not drunk. I would not arrest him for peing drunk. He was able to take charge of himself. 1 do not know whether he thought he would get the money or not when he would give the information.

Peter Bradley, Policeman, sworn : About a quarter past twelve, on Friday morning last, the Marshal told me to accompany Oflicer Shea with the prisoner Johnston to the court room. When we got there I asked him how he felt. He said, ‘‘ Much better than when in the schooner ; he was nearly crushed to death.” He said he did not care only for his father and mother ; that he would give himself up in the morn- ing only for his lawyer—mentioning Mr. Palmer’s name. Ie said it was not so bad here as if at home. I think he said, ‘‘ So help his God he had no intention of killing the man. It was all done through deviltry and wildness.” He asked if we knew how Jong the man lived after he was shot. I said I thought about fifteen or twenty min- utes. I said, ‘* You might have got a bet- ter way than going in the schooner.’” He said he did not know the man was dead until eight o’clock, and he then told his father. If he knew he was dead he could have went in the morning in the five o’clock boat. I said it wasa strange thing that a young man like him would make up and drive around with those fellows. He said

was told he had a good one. I said there was no occasion for these revolvers here. He said he never wanted to see one again. He seemed to be very dull, and I told him not to be wneasy, that perhaps he might get a little imprisonment. He said he ex-

Robert Hughes, sworn : About a qnarter or twenty minutes past nine, on W ednesday nicht, [ was standing at Dr. Mackinson s corner, | saw a carriage coming along with two men init. As they passed they said, “Gut it short,” and then proceeded to Black Sam’s Bridge. I thought the person whospoke was Millner. 1 knew his voice. The horse seemed to be a light pony, dark color. The wagon seemed to be a light constructed one. 1 know Millner by eyesight. | know his voice.

To Mr. Palmer—I am not personally ac- quainted with Millner. I know him to see him. I spoke to him once on Queen Square when the House was in session. I spoke to him often in his shop when I would go to get things repaired. I swear | spoke to ames Millner in his father’s shop twice.

Opposition journals and leaders are tak- ing advantage of popular excitement about the occurances in Bosnia to denounce the {mperial Cabinet with unmeasured violence and charge them with sending the Magyars to slaughter, with the object of securing their extermination. Hungarian troops have been the principal sufferers at Maglay, Tuzla and Stolatz.

Lonpon, Aug. 19.

A Vienna despatch to the Times says the Porte’s attitude towards Greece and its de- lay in evacuating Batoum, the resistance to Austria’s occupation in Bosnia, the refusal to surrender the territory assigned by Con- gress to Montenegro and the organized | movement of the Albanians in Old Servia ( in threatening the Servians in their newly acquired lands, are regarded as so many evidences of a deliberate policy-which aims at stultifying the Berlin Congress and its \ results. It is the general opinion that by such policy the Porte is playing a danger- ous game. The Austrian press and people are extremely bitter against Turkey. No-| body now countenances the idea of eventual restoration of the occupied provinces to the Porte, and public opinion is unanimous against the conelusion of the convention.

A dispatch from Constantinople says :— ‘*The Porte, in replying to the representa- tions of some ambassador, declares that it has no money to organize gendarmerie, em- ploy judges, or otherwise realize promised refo.m.”

Rearstern Pasha, a Roman Catholic and governor of Lebanon, will probably be ap- pointed governor of the new Provinces of Eastern Reumelia.

Enjoy Life.

What a truly beautiful world we live in. Nature gives us grandeur of moun tains

We can desire no better when in perfect health ; but how often do the majority of people feel like giving it up disheartened, discouraged and worried out with disease, when there is no occasion for this feeling, as every sufferer can easily ob- tain satisfactory proof that Green’s August Flower will make them as free from disease as when born.

George W. Johnson, sworn : The state- ment that my son gave me a pistol is not correct. He did not give me a pistol. | have no pistol in my possession nor under my control. I had a pistol since the night} of the 14th. I cannot say whose pistol it was. I cannot say where that pistol is now. It was in my possession last, on Thursday, the 15th. I took it to the Gas Works with me, and put it ina valise in my office with gas work. I found it in my own room at Mr. Higgins’ boarding house. My son’s room adjoins mine. The valise is not in the office at present. It is in my son’s pos- session in the jail. Ihave no recollection of taking the pistol out. I heard the police were there searching. 1 thought they might take itout. I have no knowledge of how the pistol got out. The valise was not locked. The office was locked only part of the time. My son had access to the office. The pistol was not in the _valise when it was sent to the jail. I neverspoke to any person about the pistol. “Immediately before adjournment Mr. Hodgson asked the Coroner if, at! present, there was sufficient evidence for the jury to briag in a verdict of how the deceased, Kelly, came by his death. | If so he wonld suggest that they do it, and then seers vps — tribunals to’

by whom the deed was done. van Coroner said he would be glad if he | could adopt his suggestion, as it would help | to facilitate matters, but he could not find | a precedent to do so. The law is that: jurors do tind a verdict, and it then goes, on to explain how, and, if possible, by; «whom the deceased came to his death. The inquest adjourned until to-morrow at-

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 ai all, have been pressed on the market at various prices under the current rate of SYDNEY COAI, 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.
