from Callaghan on the one occasion. I signed a note for James Roper. Rielly was a good» boy.

I never heard anything bad of him. When he left, me he was about 19 years of age. I heard of an Inman, a Flynn ta McInnis being mentioned or su l in eonnection with the murder. When Ltalked about Callaghan to Gillis he shud- dered The murder was the principal thing talked about atthattime. Ifelt pretty bad when

! heard of the murder. I would not be surprised at any other person feeling bad about it.

Tos, FLYNN, City Marshal,/sworn)--examined by Mr. Hodgson, Q,C.—I remember the Cailaghan murder. I got out to the Cemetery on the 27th May,.about balf-past two in the afternoon, I went around the budding and entered through the back

Jan. 26. The first witness called upon the opening

of the Court this morning was GEORGE HvUGHEsS (sworn)—Examined by Mr Morson.—I live in Charlottetown. 1 am train ‘spatcher on the P. E. Island Railway. I have

neid that position for four or five years. During the month of May, 1885. the train left Souris at 6.05 a. m.standard, or 6.52 a.m. local time, and arrived in Charlottetown at 10.30 a. m. standard, or 11.17 a.m, local time. The Souris train arrived at Mount Stewart at 9.37 a. m. local time. Trains left Charlottetown for Souris at 3.17 p. m., and arrived at Mount Stewart at 4.52 p. m. local time. (NO cross-exami nation).

Mrs. H. B, Smirn (sworn)—Examined by Mr. Morson.-——I live in Charlottetown, and went out to the Cemetery on the day Callaghan’s body was found, I was in the house, and remember having taken a silver watch from off the table, but can- not say whether I handed it to my husband or Marshal Flynn. (Watch shown.) That is the watch I found on the kitchen table in Callaghan’s house. The table was inthe north-east corner of the kitchen, facing the bedroom.

Cross-examined by F. Peters.--I did not take arge of any of Callaghan’s papers. I had the watch for a short time, but think Officer Bradley had it after me,

W.A. WEEKs, Acting Clerk of the Crown (sworn}—Examinod by Morson—I received a valise and trunk from Deputy Sheriff Curtis. He brought them from his office tothe Prothonotary’s office. I placed them in the inside vault ana I. was always present when the doors were opened. Mr. Longworth had charge of them last Sunday night. (No cross-examination.)

JAMES CURTIS (sworn)—Examined by Morson— i am Deputy Sheriff of Queen’s County. This trunk and valise were brought to me by Constable McKinnon, anéthey have been in my office ever since. I gave them to the Crown officers on the night of Thursday last. They were in my office until that time. (Witness here examined the con- tents of the trunk). I think that is about the lot that was in the trunk when it came into my pos- session. I handed the trunk over to Mr. Weeks without putting anything In or taking anything out. Lidentify the watches and chains shown me as the ones I handed over to the Prothonotary.

Cross-examined by F. Peters—I will not be sure that an inventory of the articles wastaken. The trunk was kept in my office from the time I received it from McKinnon unti! I turned it over to the Prothonotary. It was unlocked. I examined the trunk carefully. I am _ not always in my office any more than you are. Any person going into my office could examine the trunk if he had the curlosity to doso. MeKinnon, the constable, was not in my Office, alone, for any length of time since the trunk has been there, I donot think the valise had any other fastening than it now has. There were some shirts and collars in the trunk. Some were coffon and some woollen, Twill not swear positively that the shirts were in the trank when Ireceived it. WhenI get possession of articles

custom. My reason for departing from my ecus- tom in this case was because I did not receive the tifings first hand, asit passed through the hands

of several others. However, [think that I did take an inventory, but do not know what became

and outside of the pecket. I subjected a small portion of one of the spots taken from these pants foachemical test. I putitin a solution of boil-

ing water and nitric acid. Llobtained a distinct ood tinge. There were three little portions of blood picked off the pants and snbjected to an alcoholic test. In the water solution [ obtained ¢ salmon colored tinge—a faint reddish one. ‘The alcohol did not give so distinct a tinge, but there was one there nevertheless, When I examined the results of the tests with a microscope, | was under the impressien that it was blood. My microscopic examination could tell the different ‘inds of blood. I was certainly of the opinion

t] lood.” Lexamined the outside and nside of the pocket,

Cross-examined by F. Peters.--I made my in- spection in the daylight. 1] cannot giveit as my leliberate opinion that the stains are bleed stains

thongh Ihave asuspiclon that they are. Any person who has a good eye avd good judement can judge of blood stains nearly as well as a scientific man. (The stuins were here shown to the jurors.) If is a matter of opinion as to the color of the blood stains and asolution of water. The color I obtained from the stains in the pants Wasas near as I cao describe a salmon color — with a decided reddish tint. There is no way ot telling human blood frem that of animals except under a test by a very expert analysist and microseopist.

Dr. CONROY (re-called)—Examined by Mr, Hodgson, Q. C.—-My attention has been called te these pants. (J0xamines pants.) When I first saw the pants the stains were unmistakably. blood Sstains—they were raised crusts of brown coagula- ted blood. The stains are not as marked as when I tirst saw the pants. They are now pretty well rubbed off. We applied tests, examining the stains under the microseope, and concluded that it was blood. We saw the red tinge of blood (hematine) with blood cells or corpuscles, which are ofa pale color. They are very small, round cells. We saw these under the microscope. I also scraped off a little bit of the stony crust in the stain, shook it up in water, and got a pale red color, and by addingadrop of ammonia the color was made brighter. Then by heating it with a spirit lamp we saw very smal]! grains Jike dust or sand—coagulated albumen. Other tests were le. <A drop of fresh blood drawn from the veins, heated in the same way, gave about the

ame results, The stains on the trousers are blood stains. I did not think the stain on the pocket was a blood stain. The red matter conld not come from the coloring of the cloth. Dr, Me- Leod and myself eame to the conclusion that Callaghan had been dead some days when found, but we formed po definite opinion as to how long.

Re-cross-cxamined by Mr. Peters.—I . have tested blood before as a matter of experiment un- der the microscope and by means of chemicals, but not very often. I never before made. such thorough tests as on this oceasion. It was not possible totell whether the stains were human blood or not. All we could say was that it was blood. I could not say what coloring was used in making the fabric of the cloth. I am not a specialist in such a case as this; the opinion of a specialist would be more valuable than miue.

Tvugspay, Jan. 26, Covrt reassembled shortly after 2 o’elock this afierncon.

Dr. Conroy's cross-exam/‘nation resumed.—I put

some of the bicod stains into a test tube. . I neted the color first, I then putit over e spirit lamp and heated it. It turned a dark brown dust-like color. This is certain evidence of the presence of blood. I place] some of the fabric under micro- scopic test. 'Thefabric of the cloth were plainly discernibié. I did this merely to detect the ap- pearance of the fabrie. Under the miserscope the color was somewhat changed. DR. JAMES McLrop (swern)—Examined by Mr. Hodgson, Q. C.—I assisted st these fests. We, scraped cff some of the more prominent spois on the pants aid made asolution in cold water, and with the naked eye could notice red corpuscles fioating. I arrived at the conclusion that these were blood. Ammonia added had the effect of mak ing this color still more distinet. (his clearly indi- cated blood, We afterwards boiled the serapings over a spirit lamp, and it showed littte dark- brown tints. (Pants shown.) I have examined these pants, and have no hesitation in saying that the stains on them were dried up blond staigs. The pants might have been washed or cleaned, | thought at first that Callaghan had been mur- dered with the knife, but afterwards had cgiven this idea up, and concluded that the head had been.battered in to produce.death. ~The blew on the forehead would have stunned Caliaghan.

Cross-examined by F. Peters—We also tried a solution of tincture of gall. We evotared p! : tate asaresult. I think Calaghan’s throat was cut before death, The wound.on the throat wus not silicient, in my opinion, to cause death. | think the blow On the forehead was struck with the wooden pounder. Weseraped the most dis tinct of the spots from the panis.

Dr. S. R. JENKINS (sworn) — Examined hy Hodgson, Q. C.-—-I assisted at these tests, [ be- lieve the spots found on the pants to be blood stains. I saw the bloodon the pants and scraped some of it off for the purpose of testing it. I did not examine the pauts very particularly,

Cross-examined by Mr. Peters--I did not exam- ine the Spots of blood under a large magnifying glass. The spot I examined was on the surface of the pants, in a clot. In my opinion the most cliabie test was not used,

“ENTLEMEN,—In compliance wiih the G reyuisitior of several hundred ci’ zeos, I consider it my duty to offer as a candidate for the Mayoralty of t his city ey

If elected I shall administer the city offtirs economically, and as a guarantee of my fattire actions [ may mention that durmg my former occupancy of the Civic Chair, debentures to the amount of several thousand dollars were paid off, an occurrence which did not heppen for many years previously,

In regard to a system of water supply, it is now generally conceded that a system of sewerage would sooner or later have to fo!l- low the iatroduction of water works. Anv private compeny having the privilege of making profits from water works, in this city, chould be required to constract sewerage, if, after proper investigation, it be founa that water works would necessitate sewergge. Sheald a majority of the City ouncillors deem it desirable to bring in a supply of pare water, for domestic as well as for fire per- poses, without entailing any great additional taxation, I would approve of the same, p:o- vided the question were submitted to a meeting of the citizens for their consent

T am opposed to the unjust poll tax upon citizens over sixty years of age, and aleo-upen all those who contribute to the city revenue through personal or property taxca, and shal! endeavor to kecp down texation. I am in favor ef every improvement and convenience for the health and comfort of my fellow citizens within the means of the tex payers ; but to obtain them, I am not in favor of increasing the debenture debt, the interest on which’ alrealy abro b a large portion of our city revenue.

I shell pursue the same course in the futare a8 in the past in regard to saving an? expend- ing the citizens’ texes without extravepance, and will otherwise, if elected, do oll m my power to serve the best interests of the eity,

lam, gentlemen, Your obedient servant,
