It seemed, however, to he the universal sentiment of those who heard the evidence produced against the two men that it was pot sufficient to warrant hold- ing them for trial. Considerable interest was shown in the hearing and the court house was crowded when it took place. The interest of the Commonwealth was looked after by district attorney W. G. Raukle faud J. C. Meyer Esq., while A. L. Millard, of the Standard detective agency, Philadelphia, appeared as the prosecuter. Col. H. 8. Taylor, ex- Judge Johu G. Love and N. B. Spangler represented the prisoners, who, of course, were hoth in court. The first witness called was O. H. Gaman, the nudertaker at Snow Shoe. He testified that he knew both John and Andrew Kachic and that be had secu them ato gathering in the hall at Clarence on Satar- day evening, September 12th. That they had some words between them though the quarrel did not appear very serious. He also told of being called to Clarence to take charge of the remains aud described how be found them lying on the railroad track, : the bead and lett arm complately severed from the body. He stated that it was while preparing the body for barial that he found the hole in the neck which it is be- lieved caused the man’s death. Dr. J. L. Seibert testified that he assist- ed the coroner of the county to make a post mortem examination of the hody on Friday, September 15th. The ouly part of bis evidence that had any bearing on the case was his description of the hole in the neck which he said was undoubt- edly made with asbarp pointed iustra- ment, like a stilleto or knife blade. [t was on the right side of the neck, three inches above the collar bone and about two inches and a half below where the head was severed from the body. The incision was five-sixteenths of an inch in diamater and about two and oue-hall inches deep. Its course was obliquely downwards and backwards. The blow was evidently a hard one as the point of the instrument penetrated the foarth cerebral vertebrae about five eighths of an inch. The jugular vein was almost severed in two. The doe- tor stated that such a wound would un- doubtedly cause death in a few minutes if not promptly attended to, though he was not ceitain whether this particular wound was made in John Kachio's neck before or alter death, Dr. Fisher corroborated the testimon y of Dr. Seibert but was positive in his state- ment that the wound was made before death. Dr. Neff testified that he was called and made a superficial examination of the body when it was first found bat did not ex- amine it close enough to see the stab in the neck. dMichael Scrapp testified to having seen the body lying on the railroad track about 3:30 o'clock in the morning while be was on his way to work, bot he admitted being 80 badly frightened that he did not go near t but ran away as fass as he conld.

Many thought it was another earthgnake and not a few jumped out of bed #0 as to be in readiness to run in the event of an- other *‘shock,”’ but none came.
