Ward assured witness that the Hebrews of this
city his counsel and even his own family had
combined against him.
On REORGANIZATION by Mr.. Lipscomb wit
ness said he knew Ward quite well; had known
him all his life. Wards condition was appar-
emily good when he was arraigned; there was
no appearance of insanity then. As things
were now Ward was clearly unable to testify in
his own behalf In his conversations with wit
ness Ward never referred TO the crime with
which he Is charged; he never mentioned the
name Of the man whom he killed.
DIR. BALDWIN ON THE STAND.
Dr. William o. Baldwin, in response to SEND
tor Blackburn's questions, testified that he had
visited Ward twice-April 80 and June TO-
Witness found the symptoms of physical and
casion OF his last visit. Ward could not testify
intelligently in his own behalf il he were tried
at this time. Longer confinement in Jail would
inevitably result in insanity or III the develop

times and found him progressively
worse. Confinement anxiety and loss of
sleep seemed to be responsible for Wards
present wrecked condition. Ward was physically
not strong enough to stand longer confinement
nor could he testify in his own behalf if he were
tried at this time. Longer confinement would
result disastrously, mentally and physically, to
Ward. He did not think Ward would ever be

District Attorney Hoge took up the cross
examination and was informed by the witness
that on each succeeding visit to Ward he
found the symptoms exaggerated. With

BONDS FOR. SEWERS.
ACTION LAST NIGHT OF THE CON-
MITTEE ON STREETS.
The Merchants' Petition Grnnted-The
Manchester Railway and Improve
mcnt Companv's Road.

The Street Committee met last night
and was in session about two and hall
hours.
They decided 10 ask the Council to sp-
propriate $4,000 in bonds for the con-
struction of sewers. Only $4,000 was
voted to this purpose in the last annual
budget, and the committee find they can
not begin to meet the demands for sewers
unless they can get much larger sum.
MORE MONEY NEEDED.
The CITY Engineer stated that only SZo,-
900 was appropriated to hands and carts,
nearly ali Of which had been paid out. he
said $4,000 will be needed to pay the eA-
penses of that department until next jan
nary. He had made a careful estimate ior
the Finance Committee of the expenses ior
the wear. which was ~35, 900. but they onIy
appropriated 600 900. Colonel Cutshaw
also said about 5000 will be needed for
street repairs and $4,000 for Rdewaik
paving.
At the suggestion of Mr.. Stratton; the
committee decided not TO act upon these
recommendations until the. next mee,ihe,
as Mr.. Curtis, who was in favor of asking
of the Council the increased Appropriation
was absent.
An ordinance authorizing the Manches-
ter Railway and Improvement Company
10 connect It's tracks with those OF the Clty
Railway Company at Broad and Adams
streets. and to run their cars upon the
same to Main and Fourteenth streets was
reported from the Council.
Major b. III. Nash explained that the two
companies are now operated under tne
same management. and why it is desirable
to run the Marshall cars on the City
railway track He said the company has
made a contract with the Mayo Bridge
Company to extend the tracks across the
bridGe. and the line will soon be in opera
ton from Manchester to the Exposition
Grounds.
DON'T WANT THE TRACK.
One of the features of the ordinance is
that if relieves the Manchester line from
the requirement TO put down double
track. Several property holders on Mar
shall street were present and through Mr..
I. III. Ellett. their spokesman, urged tnat
the ordinance be recommended 20 the
Council. They were opposed to the addi-
tional track. c..
The ordinance was referred to the City
Engineer and City Attorney for perfection,
to be reported to the committee at lts next
meeting.
UNLOADING on BROAD STREET.
A resolution from the Chamber of Com
merce asking the committee to resclnd its
former action in passing resolution TO
prohibit the unloading OF cars on Broad
street after August 1st was read.
A petition in support of this and signed
by many merchants and other business
men was also read.
Mr.. Turpin moved that tho time in which
the ears NAV be unloaded on Broad street
be extended one year.
Messrs. Stratton and II. l.. Carter
thought that too long time and wanted
it TO be made eight months, or until the
Belt Line around the city is completed.
After considerable discussion Mr. Turpins
motion was adopted.
WANT A CULyEEr.
Mr.. Stratton asked that on the list OF
culverts for construction one be placed Tor
Baker street between Third and Fourth.
Referred to the Ward Committee.
