tea leaf. though the miirib was rather
thick and heavy for tea leaf, same slight
peculiar sInsll as in Holloman's case; no
oder o. Prussic acid or of decomposition.
Same behavior with litmus paper as In
Holloman's case.
In case of Thomas W. Adams, reddish
turbid liquid like that in Holloman's case,
no distinct remains of solid food, same
slight peculiar odor as 10 the two other
cases, same absence Of smell Of Prussic
acid OF of decomposition, same absence of
marked action on litmus paper, with very
faint acidity on paper drying
THE Po1seNs SUGGESTED.
The very speedy death of some of the
parties suggested the proprietv of looking
for Prussic acid or Cyanide Of Potassium,
although the absence of the characteristic
smell rendered the probability of finding
either of these, small. / Immediately exam
ined for these, portions OF the contents OF
the stomachs of Holioman and Adams but
With entirely negative result. There
was so much less material from the stom-
ach of Hines that this was not o4amineu
in the same way. fE%F -
The PORTIONS Of the contents of the
stomachs Of Hollo nan and Adams were
then ex ,mined, as matter OF precaution,
for phosphorus. chief mineral acids, OK
aIic acid and the chief poisonous metals
viz: arsenic, mercury. copper, lead zinc
and an;imony, with entirely negative re-
suits.
1t being obvious that the class OF p'is-
ons now to be looked for was that of the
alkaloids. the Ioetions remaining of the
contents Of the three stomachs, and the
three stomacls themselves, cut into snail
pieces making six specimens 10 all-w. re
separately treated by the appropriate
methods for the extraction of the aka
loids. using chloroform ~ the final solvent.

u
fairly with the idea of de.th having been
due to poisoning by Ac )nitine in some
form. bnG am surprised at the rapidity
with which the fatal result was reached
in three Of the cases, including two of the
cases chemically examined Holloma an and
Adams.
THE PRESSING OF CHLoRAL.
From the contents Of Adams stomach,
gentle heating developed slight choral
like odor, which was afterwards observed
IN dealing with the principal portion for
alkaloids. Heating after the addition of
caustic soda produced an odor like that
of chloroform. and heating with silver
nitrate and excess Of ammonia led to re-
duction of metallic silver; bnt thess indi-
cations. while marked enough to attract
attention, were but slight, and the red uc-
ing action on the silver ISOLATION may per-
haps have beau due to sugar in the elixir
taken as madeleine. These facts prove the
presence of choral, though OF course that
had nothing to do with the poisoning.
WHAT THE DEAD MEN LEFT IN THEIR
MUGS.
The extremely small residues left in the
mugs by Wilkins and Adams also exam.
ined They gave the following results
In both cases the singing aud nnmbing
taste most distinctly; the residue in
wilkins mug responded also to the test
with chloride of gold, picric acid, iodine
dissolved in iodide of potassium, and bro
mine dissolved in hydro bromic acid This
also gave most distinctly the reaction
for ferric iron. The residue In Adams
mug responded also tn all four of the above
chemical tests, but their value in this case
is, of course. impaired by the other aka
loids present in the madeline In this
residue the presence of sugar aud of phos.
phoric acid and ferfic iron was verified,
but strychnia could not be tssted for on

NOT TO GO TO HARPER'S FERRY.
After tea, and baving reflected on the
matter the Commonwealth Attorney
concluded that the license ought to be
issued and that he would give his opinion
to that effect to the Clerk, that being all
the Clerk needed to steer his own course,
On going to the Virginia Hotel Mr..
Echols found the now anxious couple sit.
ting on sofa in the parlor, the Governor
with his head on his hand gazing intently
into the face of his intended bride and The
disengaged hand clasping one Of hers.
The lady saw the visitor first and said with
a quick exclamation of hope, "Here is the
Common wealth's Attorney"
Mr.. Echols called the Governor to the
door and said to him that he had been
considering the matter and had come to
the conclusion that he ought to have his
license, and az the Clerk of the Court had
referred it to him for his official opinion
he had come to say to the Governor that
il it was not too late he would see the
Clerk and advise him to issue the license.
TOO late!' exclaimed the Governor.
my dear Sir, it is certainly not too late,
and will be under the greatest obligation
to you If you will do 500
iii let you hear from me-" said Mr..
Echols, and he went OF and informed Mr..
ArgeDbright and soon after called for the
two lovers to escort them to the Clerk g
rtfice. The lady had on her hat ready to
"a, and the Governor with lever like solicit
tude insisted that she should wear shawl
but she declined.
As they were going out Of the parIor
door Gov. :Spraqus selasrked that he would
