French Joe resumed his testimony in the
Tewksbury hearing today He had never
sold tobacco from the store room and given
the money to Marsh, nor had any of the lat,
ter's family taken anything from the store
room while under his charge.
DR. Geo. f. Putney was assistant at Tewks-
bury under Lothrop for over two weeks. The
beds there were as clean as at any other
place of its kind. The food compared I'M
favorably it'll other places, being wholesome,
but not sufficient. ID, licacies were wanting
Never saw any of the Marsh family wearing
the clothes of inmates. 1t was Impractical
BILE for medical man to have the entire
control of the institution. He should have
assistance in the management. The witness
gave an outline of the necessary help needed
Had never heard of nurses abusing insane
patients. None of the latter had dirty cloth
ing which they were allowed to retain
There was constant supervision over such and
system of cleanliness maintained. Never
heard of foul bathing arrangements as de-
scribed by former witnesses.
The founding hospital was over crowded
They were short of help and some of the
nurses were incompetent, but the place was
kept as clean as it could be made. While
the number of infants was small they pros
pered, but as the institution became crowded
they died. Never knew of their being fed on
skim milk.
To the Governor DIR. Putney said that
while in the Harvard medical school he had
never seen the body of baby except in the
hands of the professor Of obstetrics. The
post norton examination of babies bodies
at Tewksbury convinced him that they did
not die of starvation. While he was there there
was no instrument so perform craniatomy. 1t
none other were available a rat-tail file and
screw driver are the proper instruments to
use if the physician is skiilful enough to use
them without injuring the patient.

Ingersoll resumed his address to the jury
in the star route case this morning.
He continued his caustic criticism of Rer-
delrs testimony, and the apparent inconsis-
tencies in Rerdell's description of Dnrseys
letter. appealing to Rerdell to De faithful to
him, were pointed out and commented upon
lngersoIl continued his animadversions

Continuing. Ipgersoll said that Rerdell
admitted he had offered to sit with the de-
PENDANTS and by challenge exclude their
friends from the jury. Did any man wear
ing human form ever propose a more infa-
nous bargain: That proposition ought to
be written on the tanned hide of a Tewks-
tury psuper. Blackmar said that the prop
osition had been rejet ted, but Rerdell tried

putting an enemy to the defence in the jury

Ingersoll replied that although his friend

been cordial. he would not put stain upon
/ their reputation BY mis-stating a word of the
testimony, but il was in evidence that after
Rerdell attempted to carry out his infamous
scheme the government had put him upon
the stand sealed with the seal of the depart
ment of justice. While he was doing that he
was borrowing money from his co-defendant,
Vale, borrowing money to buy bread to sup
port him while he tried to swear his defend
ants into the penitentiary. The government
knew what he doing, that was beyond
denial. How he hated and abhorred this in
former system, every act of the government
should be flower springing from heart of
honor. The government should be an incar-
nation of candor, of courage, of confidence,
That was his idea of great and noble gov

The Tribune says: There is a great
difference between party that has every
thing to hide and one that shrinks from
no scrutiny and fears no issue. The peo-
pie will begin to feel that difference when
the conventions of the two parties pass in
review before them. 1t is possible, too,
that events may draw public attention very
strongly to the financial course of the two
parties. There may be industrial contests
or disasters this summer. In that case,
voters will ask which party has voted for
the repeal of duties designed to protect
home industry. Financial disorders are
not wholly impossible. If they come,
voters will ask which party weakened the
public treasury by silver coinage. strove
to cripple the banks by constant assaults
upon them. and threatened all invested
property by Communistic proposals. That
the democratic party is afraid of its past
history is not strange. But its only way

THE HILL INVESTIGATION.
Letter From Ex.Congressman Murch to

1t is expected the investigation of affairs in
the office of Supervising Architect Hill will
begin tomorrow at ten O'cOck.
The following letter was sent BY Mr..
Murch to Secretary Folger today:
SIR
have concluded to commence, on We'd
nesdav next, the submission of evidence in
the investigation of the office of the super
vising architect. Not however, with the ex-
pectation that the results attending my efforts
will be so satisfactory and conclusive as they
would be had the power to send for persons
and papers. l can readily see the difficulties
| shall encounter in this investigation, for
the fact that the parties accused have custody
of some of the papers and documents that |
will require to sustain the charges l have
preferred. Already you have been misled
by Mr.. Hill, as l will convince YOU imme-
diately. On the commencement of the in
quiry l apprehended this difficulty in the
beginning and asked the SUSPENSION of Hill,
so that he would not have power to constant
ly block the effort of the committee, as ! said
in former communication. | believe these
papers are in existence, unless they have
been wilfully destroyed. The refusal of
Hill to produce the papers will necessitate
the examination of numerous witnesses,
many of whom are at great distance from
''por diem and mileage of witnesses could
not be borne by the department, it will
compel the committee with all its members
to travel to the places of residences of the
witnesses at an expense TO the government,
ten times greater than if some plan could be
devised to bring the evidence here, without
taking into consideration the extra expense
,-dev diving upon me and which l can i'll afford.
and the prolongation of the inquiry almost
indefinitely. outstanding this l am now
ready to go before the committee and see
how far | am able to have produced the papers
and documents which | have called, and
which l am informed have been at the same
time on the files of the department. Now,
MIR. Secretary, if you will have the kindness
to direct your honorable committee to con-
vene on Wednesday. the 23rd inst, at 10
/ o'clock A. NJ, will be present and COM
mence to submit such evidence as I may be
able to command.
Very respectfully yours,
