NEW YORK.


NEW YORK, July 11.-In the Stokes case the
testimony will be all in to-day, after which the
lawyers will talk. Drs. Trpler, Shine and
Buck were examined this forenoon, principally
as to the administration of morphine to Fisk.
DR.. Shine for the defence, testified that they
administered 120 or 100 minims of morphine,
and Fisks condition became such that they had
to desst
Mr.. Mexican wanted to show the bad cond-
ton of the probe used ON the deceased. (Ex-
cluded.)
On the cross-examination DIR. Buck said that
Fisk's death was not exclusively from the shock,
and again that he would have died at any rate
from the pistol wound.
DIR. Sayers did not consult with Dr. Carno-
chan, who was a witness for Stokes
DIR. CarnOchan having animadverted upon the
witness, he in turn charged Dr. Carnochan with
stealing dry goodf from quarantine.
The counsel for the defence protested against
such attacks, saying it was turning the court
into a bear garden.
After the recess Thomas Hart again took the
stand and said Stokes might have come in when
up stairs to wash the sponge which he used
cleaning the windows
The District Attorney said: 'That is our case
your honor"
Mr.. Tremaine asked Patrick Hart if he said
to the parlor man at any time or place, 1--WE
will make plenty of money! mo SIR" said
answered Patrick, 81 did not say anything of
the kind"
The defence then called DR.. Howard in re-
buttal. Being shown DR.. Tripler's probe, he
said it was broken in two places and unsafe for
use, and might produce bad effect by probing
a wound with it.
To Mr.. Fullertcn-The probe if not broken
at the time of using could produce no bad eff
fect-belng broken at the top end would render
the probe less efficient, the necessary rotary
motion not being able to be given.
ID. q. Farwell, the apothecary who furnished
the opiates, was examined as to the quantities
ordered.
Henry ID. Corley, the parlor man, testified in
answer to Mr.. DAILY: Patrick Hart said to me,
We'll make plenty of money out of this. He
also told mo that the bullet found fitted one
pistol but did not fit the other.
To Mr.. Beach, can lot say what time he
said this; it was the same evening; there were
a good many people around; can't say who was
present. MIR. Hart said that the bullet fits the
black pistol found on the stairs-the Stokes
pistol-but does not fit the other pistol.
MIR. Tremaine then commenced to sum up for
the defence and consumed the rest of the day.
The South Carolina Bonds.
The adjourned meeting of the South Carolina
bond holders to-day was attended by represen-
tatives of 81 ,000, 900, and committee appoint
ed with power to solicit the cooperation of all
holders of bonds in an attempt to collect the
past due coupons and also to obtain subscrip-
lions for expenses and for the employ of coun-
sci.
MIR. Greeley serenaded.
Horace Greeley was serenaded this evening
at the Lincoln Club House by the liberal Re-
publicans State Committee. About 1900 peo-
pie were present. When Mr.. Greeley made his
appearance on the piazza the cheering lasted
several minutes. Mr. Greeley stood smiling
down at the upturned faces while Graffula' 5
Band played Hail to the Chief" He then
bowed and retired without speaking word and
the wild shouts and clamors of the gathering
failed to bring him in sight again. Gov. Brown
of Missouri was to have been present but bust
ness detained him in New Haven.
Nr. Greeley Greeted by fellow Democrats
Three or four of the National Democratic
Committee appointed at Baltimore to notify
Greeley of his nomination were present and in
troduced to him. Addresses were made by
Major Haggerty, of New York, ex-senator
Mallory, of Kentucky, Henry o. Kent, of New
Hampshire, Mr.. Trumbul, a son of Senat tor
Trumbull, of Illinois, Mr. Norris of Tennes-
see, Col Crisp, of Missouri, Mr.. Hathaway, of
Massachusetts, and Others. They all pledged
their different States to give large majority
for Greeley and Brown. Col. Crisp said that
almost all the ex-rebels would vote for the Gin
cinnat nominees and very large minority and
perhaps even majority of the colored people
of the South would do the same. Ex-senator
Mallory said he could not see what the Demo-
era Is had to gain even if they elected straight
out Democratic President. The questions that
divided the Liberal Republicans and the Demo-
Gratis are extinct, never to be resurrected. ..
