The Tobique Tragedy. | OPENING OF THE TRIAL OF PHILLIPINE AND TRAFTON. ANDOVER, Sept. 25. The opening of the trial of Phillipine and Trafton, charged with the murder of Mrs. Howes, on the Tobique River, at- jtracted a large crowd to-day. When Judge Wetmore took his place at 2 o'clock, the courtroom was well filled, many ladies being present. The Grand Jury summoned were in attendance. Judge Wetmore, in opening his charge, dwelt at length upon the cruel and terrible nature of the tragedy. He reminded the Grand Jury that in find- ing a true bill, as he had no doubt they would do agamst Phillipine and Trafton they would not convict, but merely place them on their trial. He read extracts from the depositions of witnesses to show that there was a prima facie case against Phillipine and Trafton, and that the mur- der had been done deliberately and ad- visedly. He referred at length to the question of fishing rights, pointing out that Major Howes was acting within his legally acquired right, while the accused were illegally fishing with torches on his licensed quarters. He called attention pointedly to the law which makes guilt equal when persons act together in the commission of offence or crime, and he dealt also with the evidence, such as Phil- lipine’s admissions, finding of rifles and the discharging of shells, the pains taken to fix the rifle rests and Trafton’s unconcern after the bloody deed. In conclusion he remind- ea the Grand Jury that the prisoners would be defended by one of the ablest counsel in the Province. The Jury retired, but at 5.30 adjourned till 9 a. m. to-morrow. There is intense excitement to-night over the fact of the jury failing to come to a decision after sitting two hours. It is cor- rectly reported that there is a possibility of their failing to indict the prisoners. The case against Day as an accessory to the murder will be brought forward by the crown on @ separate indictment after the other cases are disposed of. The delay is caused by the non-arrival of one of the Phillipine girls, whose whereabouts is un- known to the authorities. Major Howes arrived to-night. He goes before the Grand Jury to-morrow. The crown will ca:l twenty-four witnesses and the defence qiitea number. The case is likely to oc- cupy some days. >a Given up te a Mob.

LEDWELL, Commander, WILL SAIL FROM shooting on Saturday of Caterino E. Garza, editor of the Commereis Mexicano, a Mexi- can paper published at Corpus Christi, by United States Inspector of Customs Sebree. Garza was shot in the stomach and morially wounded. Sebree mounted a horse and fled to Ringeld barracks. He was pursued by mounted Mexicans. Col. Glendeniug, in command of three companies of troops, put Sebree in the guard house. A mob of 200 Mexicans demanded him. Glendening refused and ordered the mob out of the fort under penalty of death. The wires were cut at midnight, but were repaired and are again working. The mob still holds the town. There is a very bitter feeling. Garza is resting comfortably. Under telegraphic instructions from Goy- ernor Ross, Sheriff Bristo organized a posse of 60 men, most of them leading citizens. The better class of Mexican citi- zens and leadmg ranchers from the upper part of the county on his line of march also joined it. They left at 6 p. m., and arrived on Wednesday.

Surveys of the Congo railroad have been completed past the 235 miles of cataracts,” and this, with the river itself, will, within two or three years, make it possible for travelers to visit the interior of Africa without, a cara- van. Inthe upper Congo region is an elevated tableland with fine “climate, free from malaria that has proven {so destruc- tive to visitors on the* coast. When the journey that was formerly made painfully through weeks can be ;made ina day, the prophecy willindeed be fulfilled, which declares that Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God. The opening of Africa to Christian civilization is likely to be the most important fact in the history of the next fifty years. ape -——-—— . A Stream of Siiver.
