WHICH BABY IS TIP
Curious Case on Trial in q New
York Court.

NEW YORK, April 10.-The curious exam
nation as to the identity of a 2-year-old baby,
which Mrs Savillar Downing says is her
child and was secreted from her by its
father Forrest S. Downing, and which Others
say is Carlos Wilson, born three months be-
fore Savillar's baby, is occupying the atten-
ton of a judge and jury here. Lawyer
Seeor, who contests tho claim, alleges that
the baby is really Carlos Wilson, and that
Mrs. Downing's baby died and was
buried. Mrs Downing's lawyer says that
the baby that was blurred was girl and not
Mrs. Downing's baby at all, but another
baby palmed off upon her by the iustigation
of her alleged husband, with whom she has
not lived since the birth of the child.
DR.. Waterburn, who attended the babies
ct the house of Mrs. Diener, where they
were born, thought the baby in court was
Carlos Wilson. He then examined the baby,
which objected strenuously, and became
quite uncertain as to what baby it was.
Mrs. Diener was recalled. She said she
-h"a-vAd that Mrs Downing's child had

very small middle toes; she was sure the
child in court was not that child Ttan the
baby was examined again, and it
cried. According TO one observer, the
father nf five children, including twins,
the middle toes were unusually
small. The examination of Mrs. Diener went
on, and she persisted in her story Mrs.
Downing's lawyer tried to get her to admit
that the baby in court had humps on his head
like the humps on Mrs. Downing's baby.
Then the baby was again examined, and
again went
