In un opinion handed down by tlio Supreme Court to-day the courts of Diuphln and Lancaster coun ties are afllrmed on their rofusal to grant an injunction restraining the Oapltol Commis sion from awarding the contract to Architect Henry Ivos Cobb, Of Chicago. Tlio opinion, which Is written by Justico Mltcholt, is an elaborate one and severely scores the com plainants and their attorneys. It says the court was without Jurisdiction in the sub ject matter and that the records wore sent up in a very ragged condition. It bIiows au injunction issued tbo day the bill was filed without sorvico ou any one. Tho opinion continues as follow : How far tho coramlislonors have made thom aolves personally liable to tho plaintiffs in tbo matter of tho prize is a question to be settled at law In a salt based on the separate Caueo of action. The dismissal of tho present bill will thorefore bo without prejudice to complainants rights if any in such action. Begin Right With Coughs and Colds. lake tho sure cure, Pan-Tina. S6o.

COYLE ON THE RACK. Iln-Sonutor l'ut Through CroHS-Kxainlimlloii. a Illgld Tho Coylo-Joyce llbol caso was concluded lato yostorday afternoon. Senator Coyle, ou cross-examination, was plied with questions by Mr. Snyder, trom his boyhood days up to tho prosent timo. In reply to thosenumorous questions Coylo admitted that ho attonded school about nine year; taught school for a whllo; was prosecuted while in office for mis demeanor, claimlug he was advised by coun sel to retain the money; denied that bo in troduced a bill compelling railroad com panies to fence in their tracks; acknowledged that other papors in tho county and state had termed him a demagogue. Tho witness admitted he Introduced a bill against the Pullman Palaco Car Company, and subsequently received a pass from that company ; he was also questioned as to reso lutions introduced by him against tho Bead ing company, the defense endeavoring to provo this was done becauso tho company withheld passes. Mr. Coylo was thou put under rigid examination as to bis bill of 350 for mileage, etc., whllo he hold franks and passes ; he was also asked whether Wyatt's bill of expenses had not been re duced three times, and admitted that Wyatt had consulted with him about the matter. but would not swear that be did not ask other Senators to yoto for tho passage of Wyatt's bill ot "extras." In answer to a question as to his residence. Coyle said he temporarily resides in Phila delphia, and had an office In Mahanoy City, but admitted lie sow out ins Insuranco bus! ness and no ono occupied his office now. Asked as to who paid to tho hospital fund for tbo Young Men's Republican Club, the wit ness admitted Mr. Jones, an appolntoe of his at ilarritburg, did so.

James W. Carlln, attorney-at-law. said Coyle told him he would apply for a license In Philadelphia and that if he didn't get it be would knock the judge's retiring bill in the head. J. Jerome O'Neill, of Lost Creek, was shown the circular Issued In the Coyle- Kln g campaign, and stated that a man work ing as a stenographer for him was private secretary for Coyle, and the former had so informed him, but the court ruled that the private secretary was the proper witness to connect Coyle with the circular. The de fense wanted to submit as evidence all th Issues of the Black Diamond, to prove there was no malice, but the court would not per mit It. Charles Yolio. of Ashland, said he received an appointment as poster and folder at Harris burg through Coyle, and the latter asked him to divide his salary with Harry Kantner, of Tamaqua ; told people that Coyle had asked him to sign a petition or power of attorney for his salary. The witness said he did no work at Harrlsburg ; his salary was fa a day. and ho paid a substitute f I per day to do his work.

LONG IMPRISONMENT 'FOR HER I The Latest Sensation In Greater Hew York's Remarkable Murder Case. The Woman Betrays the Man Who Committed a Murder For Her Sake. Speoial to Kvkkio ItKRALn. Nbw York, Nov. 10, 3:00 p. m. Mrs. Augusta Nack was placed ou the witness stand .tilts nftenibon, in the Guldeusuppo murder trial. She made a full confession, Implicating Martin Thorn in the murder. The defense will endeavor to break down her testimony. New York, Nov. 10. The Herald to day says: "Emanuel Frlsnd, counsel for Mrs. Augusta Nack, was at the Harlem Opera House last night. It was noticed when he came Into the lobby that he appeared nervous and oxclted. His extreme nervousness caused some comment, and he remark ed casually that he had Just come from a long Interview with his client, Mrs. Nack. He sat half the play through, and on coming out said: "Mrs. Nack has confessed. That la all I can say. She has confessed, and will go on the stand against Thorn. I cannot speak about the matter any further. I have made a solemn prom ise of secrecy. There Is no use of try ing to see me later there Is no use trying to see anyone else. Even Mr. Howe does not know. The few others who do know are pledged to secrecy, as I am. I shall go home, disconnect my telephone and refuse to see anyone or answer a question. Mrs. Nack has made a full confession that's all I can say." The Herald's article continues: Mrs. Nack had until yesterday not uttered a single word that tended to incriminate her. She had withstood the MRS. AUGUSTA NACK. efforts mado by the police to extort from her an admission that she had killed William Guldensuppe or that she had planned his death and lured him to "Woodslde, L. I., where Martin Thorn actually did the shooting. The woman had been subjected to the 33d degree by the police to every known method ot torment. She had been cunfronted with the horrid masses of flesh; she had been coaxed, wheedled and threatened. The promise of life had been held out to her as a reward for a few words that would surely re sult in Thome's execution. She had remained Arm during her Imprisonment at police headquarters. At all hours of the day and night she had been be sieged, but she had kept her own counsel. Now Bhe confesses, by what direct Influence Is not known. The story that Mrs. Nack has told and that she will be called upon to repeat to the Jury Is full of dramatic Interest. She has described at great length her life with Guldensuppe in tne little nat on Ninth avenue, near Thirty-fourth street. She auarreled with him frequently" after Thorn ap peared upon the scene. Guldensuppe was violent and abusive, and to rid herself of him she and Thorn determin ed to kill him. She Induced him to co to WoodBide to Inspect a cottage which she had hired, she told him, to conduct her business as midwife. He went upstairs alone, and when she heard shots Bhe knew that Thorn had carried out his promise. Mrs. Nack's confession. If accented by the Jury, will condemn Martin Thorn to electrocution, while she may escape wun zu years- imprisonment. GAiincora in 1onventlon. r Harrlsburg, Nov. 10.
