Dead Bookmaker. r New York, April 26.--The most sen- rational development in the testimony in the trial of Nan Patterson,.charged with the murder of *'Caecsar'"' Young, came when Coroner's Physician Philip F. O'Hanlon took the witness stand for the prosecution and said that he had changed his opinion that Young committed suicide, v Dr. OH, performed the autopsy lanlon on Young's body. Assistant District Attorney Rand Jroduend the official report of -- Dr. amilton, 'which did not define the tase as one of suicide, and the doctor said that he had simply expressed the suicide opinion in conversation with Coroner Brown, When Frederick Michaels, the cab driver, was asked why he did not look in the cab when he heard the shot fired he replied : "Jt wasn't my place, Suppose | had looked in and got shot." Dr, E, Riggin; formerly &f the Hud son street hospital, indicated hy means of a skeleton the donrse of the bullet which killed Young and Mr. Levy, counsel for the puisoner, asked that. he illustrate the position: in which the » revolver must have been held to Produce the wound. "I could not do it at the point 1 have indicated," . the witness replied, "because 1 could not twist myself in- to such a position." When Dr. O'Hanlon, physician, wa} on the stand he told the jury that his opinion had changed fince he 'reported the case to the coroner's office as ofie of suicide and that he did not knew. of the relations of Young and the defendant at the time that report was made. He ad- mitted that he had expressed the opin: ion that it was a case of suicide oven after he had heard the facts of {he relations between Miss Patterson and Young. He said that he was influenced in 'his first decision that Young com- mitted suicide by black spots on the inside of -the dead man's fingers, which he then believed 40 be powder 'stains.

We haye in Canada a composite race, and as in England Norman and Celt are blended, so in Canada the maple leaf will be the brightest when it is seen to grow not only with the rose, thistle and shamrock, but the lily of France. Let us remember that we must have the spirit of give-and- take, the spirit of respecting the con- sciences and convictions of all Cana- dians, We would make a great mis- take if' we would cause friction to grow between different natidnalities of this country. / ST.
