THE NORWICH MURDER.
Expert Testimony Continued.


NORWICH. JAM 1.-The trial of Mrs. Cobb was re-
sumed at O'Clock, the cross-exa ninaton of DR..
Doremus continuing. He read from several authori-
ties as TO the effects of the habtual use of arsenic
The only cases Of arsenic eating laid down in the
books are said to be among the Styrians Professor
Doremus described in detail the process by which he
proved that there no arsenic in the chemicals he
used during the analysis. He said that arsenic en-.
tiers into various manufactured articles and into
some goods. Arsenic is found in common salt, but
not in a dangerous quantity. A great deal also de-
ponds upon the combination in which it is found as to
its poisonous characteristics.
Prof. Rudolpbe A. Whitehouss of the University of
Vermont took the stand. He had assisted Prot
Doremus in all but two Of the experiments upon
Cobb's body. They had consulted together and con-
sequenty he had endorsed every step taken by Prof.
Doremus He had not shadow of doubt but that
Cobb died of arsenical poisoning, and he fully be-
ieved that Mrs. Hattie Bishop in the analysis
whose body he had also aided, died from the same
cause. Adjourned. =
