HOUKIOAX'S TMAL. Teatlmaay In tha Prelimlnnry E- atsalnatlan af tbn Murderer af Sam- nel llnye nt Rttsy, Kf. Labanoa, May 6. trial of Dr. J.

Manas, and if all of them are introdnosd the trial ia likely to be a long one. In tbe main, tbe testimony so far adduced 'ba been of the sams tenor, end much of it merely cumulative, being substantially repetition of that given in tbe Cotraixn-JocnaTAL this morning.

It was furtber hnn tn-dav that on tha altarnoon pre lnr tbe killing. Dr. Houngaa waa at nia father -tw-law's store at Riley, and having bongbteoma floor and potash, asked hie brother-in-law, Samoa! Hays, to charge thstn to his account. Sam declined to do so, but told Hourigan ho would civs them to him, remarking that Hourigan bad not yet paid him the $3.50 which be bad borrowed eome time before. Hourigan refused to accept tbe goods as a gift, and want to B.

J. Hubbard, tha- teJscrapb operator, and tried to borrow $3.50, but Hubbard not having the money by him, bo failed to get the loan. Tbe next day Hourigan came in and paid tbe B3.50, aad the oouvarsatlon which ensued brought oa tbe dimculty. Hays was shot three times, one ball entering near tha navel, a second in the region of lb tempi, a third at tbe back of tha head. So lar the evidence has no shown any attempt on tha part of the deceased to strike Hourigau, or do him any injury prior to the first shot.

It remains to be aeon what tbe defease will be able to produce in tbn way of justification. Method! Foreign Missions. NasfaviUs. May 5. (Special.
