sPIRIrUALIsTIC SENSATION.
Remarkable Testimony of a so Called
Medium at Reading, Pa.
Special to the Enquirer.


READING, May l3.-Qulte sensation
was created in court to-day in the case OF
Rev. Martin Luther Fritch against
Angeline Suader, the spiritual medium,
on an action for SANDER, charging Fritch
with abducting one Amanda Fisher.
George f. Baer and j. IL. Jacobs ap-
peared for plaintiff and ID. Il j. n.
Emmentroud for the defense. When
the defendent took the stand she was
severely cross-examlned by Mr.. Jacobs as
to her spirituaIistiC views.
Among other things she said she saw
in the dark through spiritual eyes; that
she could pass through rooms with locked
doors, which Immediately unlocked at
her approach; ana that angelo attended
bcr-many large and email angels came
to her bed at night, aod she saw as ST..
Paul did while in trance. Her body
renamed on earth while her spirit
wandered away of and saw beautiful
visions. She could not explain why sac
was possessed with these powers, but 1t
was given by some to zee with peculiar
visions, and that she was being persecut-
ed as the martyrs and Christ were. While
on the stand she went into a sort OF trance
aad Der testimony while in that condition
was interesting. If not insane che acts

that William Fritch is entirely innocent

CINCISNATI MUSICAL FESTIVAL,
The Opening Day.

CINCINNATI, Nav li.-The early
hour, : O'clock, fixed for the opening
concert OF the festival proved too early
for the chorus orchestra or audience, and
It was twenty minutes later when, with
densely packed auditorium, Theodore
Thomas made his appearance on the
stage, followed by the sololsis. With
low bow IN response to the applause, he
turned TO the orchestra, waved his
baton, and with the first notes of
"Scenes from Gluck's Aicestc," tho
third musical festival WAS begun.
This performance brought into
play the following soloist Madame Pap
penheim, Miss Crauch, Miss llecklc, Mr..
Adams, Mr. Fritsch, Mr.. Thompson, Sig
nor Tsghapictro, Mr. Remmeriz, and
Mr.. Whitney, besides the iull chorus and
orchestra. While the performance was
very fine II gave sufficient OF the acoustic
qualities of the hail when filled 10 re-.
move any doubt OF their perfection. Tho
bricfIutermlssion which followed was in
tcrrupted by tho appearance Of Mr..
Springer, accompanied by Mr Dexter
and followed by the members OF the Fosli-
val Association. As the audience caught
sight OF the little procession moviGg
sCross the stage, handkerchief were
waved and burst Ci cheers filed the
building. He acknowledged the mani
testatiOns OF the audience with slight
bow and wave of his hand and seated
himself, possibly the hsppiest man m
the whole assembly. Brief addresses
were made by Messrs Dexter and Long
worth, but when the venerable Mr..
Springer arose the applause was deAten-
ing and long. The Festival ODE" tho
music of which was composed by Mr..
Otto Singer, who has Cor several years
been drilling the chorus, closed
the first part OF the evenings
performance. 1t brought out solo
on the great organ, the first sounds from
the immense iDsLrumcnt which had boen
heard during the evening, and which
commanded the close attention OF the
auIience. The last portion Of the even
ing's entortsnmeut consisted OF Bee
thovens EYocs symphony composed IN
reference to Napoleon Bonsparto, and in
tended as musical portrait of the great
soldier This closed the evenings pro
gramme Of the Festival watch already
gives evidence Of surprising ia predecos-
sors in every respect.

were in the great steal are either in dig
nifed and profitable exile or kindly shell

hears any of these fellows threaten to

from men who have got little or nothing
from the administration, and yet they
dare not move. The most confding Dem
ocrst ought to know that no Republican
of any party standing can afford to set his
party up for slaughter, and everybody
knows that the Republican party could
not survive a full exposure of its crime
against constitutional government If

STILL SERENE.
W ha: Hayes Thinks or tho InvesIi-
CATION.

WASHINGTON, May l4.-Intimste
friends OF the President say that he shows
no dIsquiet whatever in the now pend
ing proceedings in the House concerning
the alleged election frauds, but exhibits
same equsnimity of temper which has
marked his conduct ever since his lnau-
guration. He had not, In the past, the
slightest knowledge of fraud by the
political managers in Florida and Loui-
siana, other than the published accuse.
tions on the Democratic side. During
the canvass and investigation in these
States he was utterly reserved and took
no part whatever concerning them, leav-
ing the whole responsibility 10
those who performed such business.
President Grant, while the excitement
existed, suggested that gentlemen whose
characters were well known 10 the coun-
try should 90 there and examine into all
the facts, so that their report or conclu-
sions should inspire respect. President
Hayes took no part in the suggestions OF
his immediate predecessor, and didn't in
tcTfere in any way whatever all the time
the returning boards were at work up to
the latest hour when the contest
was closed. He regarded the general
result MS uncertain as TO either
party in contest, He received no COM
mupicstions from any of the Republican
visitors to those or any other States nor
was he in the remotest degree compicat-
ed by the proceedings OF his friends in
the matters stated. In fact, his intimate
friends say, during the period of uncer-
tainty as TO his election he manifested no
anxiety to occupy the presidential chair
leaying the determination of that ques-
ton to others. The President said this
morning that there was nothing new in
the proposed investigation, but while
the frauds, if any com
mltted should be exposed, such
exposure would not invslidate his title to
the Presidential chair, as this had been
settled and declared by commission cou-
stituted under solemn act Of Congress.
VIce-President Wheeler having re-
turned from New York this morning,
called upon the President, and having
subsequently, been asked what the Presi-
dent said regarding the pending proceed
ings in the House, replied; "Ihe Prcsi-
dent didn't even allude to the subject.
Ny visit was on other and entirely diff
iereEt business.

Excitement About The Attack on
Emperor william.

BERLIN, May 14.-Indlgnation and
excitement over the attack on the EN-
peror has increased rather than subsided,
but except the North German Gazette sll
the newspapers counsel cslmness and
avoidance OF rash measures OF reprissl
upon the social Democrats. In the Reich
stag on Monday two Socialists openly in
Iited rebuke by refusing to join in the
loyal cheers which the President OF the
Chamber proposed, but no a.
tention was paid to them. All
attempts to establish HoedePS insanity
as well as his independence of social
Democrats have failed. HIS crime is
proved by numerous witnesses and the
trial will be mere formalty. The efforts
of the police are directed to finding
threads of the general conspiracy, if such
exists. One accompliceis is suspected, and
a detective is in LelPsic looking him up.
