FAINT. was advised that the body had
been embalmed, but if so 1 couldn't
tell it.
The witness started on to tell about
having examined an embalming fluid
furnished him by Col. Summers, but
here the State counsel objected and the
Judge ruled that the statement pro-
posed by the witness was that relevant
to the case, since it had not been
proved in the trial that the body had
been embalmed, and further, since il
the body was embalmed there was no
evidence that it was done with the
particular fluid in question. The
symptoms in arsenical poisoning, said
the witness, may develop in a few
minutes, in an hour or in several
hours, according to the physical con-
dition of the person. These symptoms
continue until the person dies or is re.
lieved.
Cam Irrison was next called. He tes.
stifed: l gave Mr. Bailey a package
which Mr., Gilmer gave me to hand
him, don't know what was in the
package.
At this point the evidence for the
State concluded and at 8 40 the court
adjourned until 8 o'clock to morrow.
The witnesses for the defense will be
called next.
The evidence of the State Chemist
was the principal feature Of the days
proceedings. That he found arsenic is
beyond a doubt, but since he was told
that the body had been embalmed he
was unable to come to any positive
conclusion as TO the manner in which
the arsenic reached the liver. But it
has not yet been proved that If the
body was embalmed the fluid had ar
senic in it.
The indications so far as the chemist
could determine were common to q
case in which the poison had been adj
ministered while the person was alive.
But he detected aromatic odors which
indicated than an embalming fluid
had permeated the liver.

tainly weighty matter. 1t is said
that the defense will be unable to
prove, if the body was embalmed, the
nature of the fluid used.
Dr. Taylor fully vindicated the fact
that he is an expert OF fine ability, and
knows the laws OF chemical analysis to
the highest degree Of accuracy and
perfection. r.

WhO Made IL!

V. B. Bowers, of Elk Park, was up
before U. S. Commissioner L. L.
Green, of Boone, N. c., on an indict-
ment for having made and passed
counterfeit money.
The case was dismissed for lack Of
evidence.
rhe whole affair, we are informed,
was "put up" job, as there was not
the least evidence of guilt. Bowers
was in Johnson City at the time the
counterfeit money was passed.
The facts, as given to us, relate that
an insurance agent named Hatcher
took dinner at the Bowers House and
gave the clerk a ten dollar bill to
change, and the clerk was accommo-
dated by negro. The negro, as is
African wont, displayed the bill to
Charley Patton, who saw at glance
that the bill was IN G." Hatcher
then redeemed the bill without grumb-
ling. Bowers, however, was arrested,
his arrest concluding the testimony
before us. What the outcome will be
it is not our province to say.

ABINGDON, VA, Aug. 5.-The great
sensational trial, which has now been
in progress here for week, will ulti-
mately decide whether DIR. John A. P.
Baker is to be hanged for wife murder
or whether he is to be declared inno-
cent of the charge and turned loose as
true man.
The charge upon which he is ar
raigned is most grave one, but if he
is found to be guilty beyond a doubt,
he should suffer the seyerest penalty
OF the law.
The evidence in the case is being
submitted for consideration to most
substantial jury. They all appear to
be good, law abiding citizens, intelli-
gent and above the average. 1t is to
be presumed that they will do their
duty in the case according to law and
evidence, regardless Of consequences
The attorneys in the case are among
the most able in the State, are vigilant
and scrutinizing, and will place every
point before the jury in manner
that will help them to decide.
AS a judge of law Judge Ward has
few equals, and he is conducting the
court in an admirable manner.
As the trial advances, the newspaper
men grow more interested as to the
final result. They naturally put the
evidence together, and look back ovel
it from day to day.

oke Times, came down to furnish hi

ATLANTA, GA. Nov. 2.-The Journal
this afternoon makes public an interesting
sequel TO the late Gordon senatorial cleo
ton. 1t is somewhat spicy, and as the
Journal was one Of the principals the story
has been well kept until one of the other
principals bobbed up in the present Ohio
campaign in such q way as to force its dis
closure. The other principal referred to Is
John Livingston, who, 1t will be recalled
wrote letter during the senatorial contest
referred to, which, while it was easily
shown to be fraudulent, at the same time
created no little breeze in politics. The
revelation to-day is all about that letter
and John Livingston, who lays claim to the
presidency Of the New York state alliance.
THR CUE TO THE PLOT.
The similarity of the New York Living
ston's name AMI position with that of the
Georgia congressman gives the cue to the
plot. The New York Livingston claimed
TO have certain documents that would not
only aid Gen. Gordon's election but stir up
a general political whirlwind ia the south.
The Journal sent a representative to New
York to get 1.-THE story" When an inter-
view with Livingston was had the docu-
ments did not materislize, but he pro missed
in consideration of 500 in hand paid and a
note for $500 additional to be paid when
Gen. Gordon was elected to the United
States Senate to send the coveted papers,
and tho Journal man came home. After
some waiting and some further correspond
ence the letter referred to as having been
published during the contest came to hand.
REFUSED TO PAY.
The Journal was not satisfied and refused
to pay the remaining $500. Livingston
employed Hon. Thomas orwood as his at
torney and compromise was effected. The
Journal comes out and tells the whole
story, but at the same time insists that Gen.
Gordon was in no way cognizant of the
transaction. In view Of the figure the New
York Livingston is cutting in Ohio politics,
