Wild Htampeda of Boreas on an Oak land Ferryboat—Several People Serloatly Injared — Camp bell's Stale Train. By tbe AUuclkted l'ren. Woodland, Dbo. 6.—At no time dur ing tbe trial ol Hatch bas tha atten dance been so large as last night and today. Many people were unable to tain admission to the court room. Mr. Head's opening address for the prosecu tion ooonpied an hour and a halt in delivery. He began by reminding tha jrry tbat tbey bad a sworn duty to per oral and thoy sbonld discharge tbeir obligation to tbe people uninfluenced by eentiment or prejudice, but with an earnest desire to be governed wholly by tbe law and the facts in tbe case. He made a very close analysis of tbe testimony for the prosecution, present ing it in a logical and forcible manner. He a'ao pointed ont many inconsistencies and apparent contradictious in the testimony for tbe defense. Mr. Gaddia, in bis opening argument ior tbe defense, made an .earnest plea for the purpose of impressing tbe jury with a full sense ol the responsibility reit'ng npon tbem. He made an ex haustive review oi the testimony. The evidence ol every witnesa for tbe prose cution was dissected and tbe apparent weak points held np before the jury. Then the teatimony tending to establish an alibi was carefblly marshaled and every corroborating oircamatanoe dwelt upon at aome length. At 1:30 General Hart began tbe clos ing argument for the delenee. He waa in splendid voice and spoke with im passioned earnestneaa that frequently rose to the height of eloqnenoe. His denunciation of the railroad company was very bitter. He waa especially severe on tbe detectives aod railroad ettumors, branding them aa alavee and tools of a eoulleaa corporation tbat ia using its mighty power and influence to bound Melviu Hatch to tbe gallows. He charged tbat the proaecution waa nut by the people but by the Southern Pacific company, with not only hired lawyers but suborned perjury to swear away the life of an innocent man. He charged that the object is to make a Vie im of Hatch in order to terrorize the railto,id ercployeea and lessen the dangor of auotber strike. At 4 o'clock General Hart had not Concluded his argument anil tlte court ordered a receaa until 7 o'clock, when he resumed. Mr. Cook of the prosecution will not begin his argument until tomorrow. The case will not probably be given to tbe jury until late in the afternoon. Arrested for Manslaughter.

AN INSURANCE WAR. Ono Pacific Ooait Dnlon Diiropttd. ltate Outtlns Will Follow. San Francisco, Dec. 6.—The Pacifio Insurance union, through, which the inanrance business of tbe Pacific coaat bas long been controlled, is again in danger of disruption. Arthur E. Ma gill, general agent of the Phoenix and the Home companies, wiUdrtw from the asaociation beoauee of what be called ita lax and lenient methods in treating members who have openly violated the rules of tbe union and defied ita power to regulate their busineaa in any way. Two secret meetings, botb of whioh were largely attended, were held today. It is understood committees were appointed to wait upon Mngill and endeavor to bring the two influential companies which he represents back into the fold. Magill is eaid to be de termined to remain out unless some action ahall be taken to discipline the violators of the nnion'a bylaws. Magill'o resignation means a very bit ter light, consequent upon his deter mination to cut ratea. The "non-inter couree" rule waa put Into effect against him at once. This rule ia in the nature of a boycott, and prevents all other in surance oompanios on the Pacific OOSII from accepting bUßineas through Ma gill's companies or sharing business in the lino of reinanrance witb either of his compauiee. Thia doea not cut the Home and the Phccoix off entirely, aa they can etill do buaineae direct with the inaured, but in the case of long linea, which are always broken up by reinsurance, the company will bave hard luck placing tbeir riske. Being untrammelod, Mr. Magill may now cut rates, and there may be a lively scram ble for business. In the matter of rate cutting, union members can take a hand, as one of the rules adopted only a few months ago permits a union member to cut tatea in order to secure a riat written by a non union number. In such caae the risk secured is divided up among the nnion members, thereby decreasing the indi vidual risk. A DEARTH OF HOUSES. N. w Stata Offloiala Will Hava to Skirm ish f<>r Uoaana.
