Progress of the Trial-The Testimony
Its Effect.

New York, July 2.-The Stokes tfia
was attended by great crowd, as wa
Respected by Stokes.
jessie Mapsfeld Is to be put on trial
DR.. John +. White surgeon, testified
, % being present and participating n
probing the wound. Arms We're aisi
] Presented at the post morteRa exainina
ton. Witness believed death was
caused from the shock of his physical
and mental SYSTEM. In such a case a:
/ Fisk S, be White would not haFe used
ichiorsL - ~
4 DR. White, on crOss-eXaminatiOn, tes-
tilted that Fisk, at nine o'clock in the
evening, talked rationally and jOeular-
ly, saying that his pain was Ike green
apple belly-ache, and at four O'Clock in
the morning bis eyes were contracted
from opium, ten drops Of which were
given him the evening previous at eight
O'Clock; the next morning he was un.
conscious and dying. The witness did
not think the break or ineision ia the
smaller intestines Necessarily fatal, he
thought that the correct treatment of a
patient, wounded like Colonel Fisk, was
quietness, milk punch and beef tea;
there was no probing of Fisk's wound,
in his. presence, which would have af-
feeted the duration of Fisk's life.
DR.. j.. 4. Sayre, the next witness, tes-
titled that he found Colonel Fisk, at
nine o'clock, In bed; his great pallor
satisfied him that Fisk would die from
the shock, which was paralysis, and
which spread over the whole surface of
the body; was satisfied that he could not
recover; Fisk never rallied from the in
Jury done by the wound to the sympa-
thetic nerves; the wound was mortal
from the beginng, which was the reason
for giving opium. To the question rs TO
whether the amount of more or less
could have had any effect on the final
result, the witness answered: .'Oh, no;
wounded as he was, he would have died
any how"
After recess George H. Smith, Secre-
tary of the Narragansett Trotting Asso
citation, who was about TO leave the city,
was allowed to testify on behalf Of the
defence, but the evidence proved to have
no bearing on the case.
The medical testimony was then re-
sumed.
DIR. Steele testified that he was pres
e1it when DR.. Wood was examining the
wound; C0lORel Fisk rallied and seemed
10 improve short time after that; the
cause Of death was a shock from the
pistol ball wound, without reference to
the probing OF administration of opium.
DR.. Thomas Tripler, who was also
present at the examination, depOsed
that two ounces of brandy in water was
given to the dying man; death resulted
from the pistol ball shock and was ac-
celerated by peritOaitds; from the very
his opinion was that Colonel
Fisk would die from the effects of the
shot. .E 2 q -s
Both of the witnesses were cross-ex-
lmined at great length, but nothing of
material interest was ELECTED.
The court then adjourned.
