The Proceedings To-day.

DENVER, Dee. Notwithstanding the
evidence procured by the government yes
terday DR. Graves did not appear at all
dispirited when he appeared in court this
upon +. ;. Worrell, Jr, who was again
called to the stand for con
tinuance Of his direct examination.
Mr.. Worrell was shown and Identified
several dispatches that were sent and re-
ceived by him last year. They all per-
tained to Mrs Barnaby's death. One re-
quested Mrs Conrad to come TO Denver
before her mothers remains were en-
balmed, but the real cause of death was
not told her. Another dispatch said that
Graves left Providence Sunday night and
was due here on Wednesday
Mr. Worrell was cross-examined by
Judge Macon at great length, but little
new was brought out Of consequence.
Worrell said he knew in June, year ago,
that Mrs. Barnaby was about TO receive
one hundred thousand dollars. Witness
had no way OF knowing that medicine was
in the package received, as IL was marked
merchandise only" He said he never
knew that he had been suspected OF this
crime, or that a great many people IN Den
yer believed il of him now.
Worrell said that the coroner had never
forbade him TO remove Mrs. Barnabys
body after the autopsy.
tion about the Worrell family's guilt Mrs.
Worrell, Sr wept and her sobs could be
heard throughout the court room.
The witness continuing said that
Mrs. Barnaby appeared TO be of
strong mind. He did not
know that Mrs. Barnaby had received
$4,000, but had heard that she had signed
a receipt for $4,000 while i'm California.
Mrs. Barnaby did not tell him who
would be the benefciaries under either
will. He never told reporter named Hill
that Mrs. Barnaby came to his office and
laughingly asked for the package that
friends had sent her, because he wasn't
there when she got the package.
Daniel Smith, who was employed at the
stable where the Worrells kept their car
riage, swore that he took the horse and We
hicle TO Worrell's Office. He saw the pack
age put in. Later he saw IL at the stable
in the buggy and he put it on the seat.
The next day it was sent TO WorrelFs
house
Concluding, Worrell said that nothing
was said to the newspapers about the real
cause of death because they did not want
TO let outsiders know it, The fear was ex-
pressed that if that was done valuable
papers belonging To Mrs. Barnaby might
be destroyed DIR. Graves was notified OF
the fact of her death only. No one told
him previously till he got here.

THEFRANCHISE HEARING
Several Additional Speakers on the
Subject.
Mr.. JOHN McAUSlAN.
what Is Being Said on the Question of
Special Contracts with Corporations
Using the Streets, Before the City
Council Committee.

The hearing on the franchise was re
sumed to-day at 2:l5 O'Clock. The firs
speaker was Amasa NJ. Eaton. lie sal
that when bargain was about co be ma
with quasi-public cornorations wh ch
should benefit them in certain ways
we should at once look into ~. MS ,D
Is SO framed as 20 protect the corpora
tions. III this act had been in effect two
year ago the cable road would not have
been built
The bill contains no provision for buy
ing the plants Of the corporations at the
the expiration of their contracts.
Some discussion occurred here as to
whether anyone who had once spoken on
the subject had the privilege of speaking
"a second time. Hiram Howard obtained
the floor and was questioned by Mr.. Long
street, He said he did not mean TO state
anything that was not true, but he
had communicated with friends in To-
ronto about the matter of which he spoke
yesterday, and thought the public ought
to hear the views of these gentlemen.
Councilman Knight then spoke briefly on
the increase of traffic on the West End
road, Boston, since the trolley had been In
operation.
John McAuslan then spoke represent,
ing the Advance Club. He said he had
the same interest in the matter that
should be felt by any citizen. He
had watched the movements of the
committee and he felt certain the
committee had no selfish motive in
the passage of this act. The act could be
SO drawn that it would be In the interest
of the city and be perfectly salts
tory to the corporations. He was
not opposed to making contracts, but they
must be contracts which shonld be in the
interest of the public, therefore until the
act was so changed as to make il accept
able to the public he was opposed to the
contracts
Alderman Douglas asked the gentleman
whether per cent. was not large enough
TO start with, and he answered he did not
know but il was.
Nh Ripley asked Mr. McAuslan if the
city council was satisfied, would not the
public be satisfied ,
Mr.. McAuslan did not hink Il e would
be necessarily. He was asked If he thought
twenty-five years was too long and an
swered that five years was the usual time
for leasing buildings and he thought it
was long enough for lease of the streets.
Alderman Douglas asked il the contract
should not be extended in case the first
term was satisfactory, and Mr.. McAuslan
admitted that il would he no more than
fair if the corporations had laid out much
money in getting the streets ready.
Mr.. Eaton was again on his feet and
said that at the end of such term Of five
years there should be re-appraisal as 3
per cent. might not be fair amount for
the second five years although il might be
for the first five years.

THE GRIP Is HERE AGAIN.
Five Deaths Caused by IL i'm the Last Ten
Days and Many Persons Are Sick.

Days and Many Persons Are Sick.
New YORK. Dec. 15.-The grip has come
TO this city again. and in the last ten days
has caused five deaths here. According to
DR.. Edison of the Health Board, this
means an extraordinary large number of
grip patients in different parts Of the city.
Just how many persons are sick DIR. Ed
son could not say, nor could DIR. Nagle for
the reason that the grip is not recog-
nized as contagious disease. Only con
tagious diseases and deaths are reported
to the Health Department.
THE increase in the number of people
suffering from respiratory diseases" said
DR. Edison, sis a sure indication OF the
presence of the grip. There were ll9 cases
of pneumonia last week and the average
for the last five years has been only 102.
There is also an increase in the number of
persons suffering from throat troubles.
In the majority of cases the grip has made
its appearance with other complications.
IL has appeared earlier by several months
this year than il did last year. From these
facts | believe that the disease will be
epidemic In the city this winter, and will
he hastened by sudden change in the
weather"
There is a great deal of sickness in New
Brunswick, y. j. The doctors do not say
il is the grip, but pronounce IL influenza.
Many of the sufferers are unable TO leave
their homes, aud those who can go out say
they have barely enough energy To drag
themselves around. IL Is estimated that
at least four hundred persons are i'll.

CHINA FEELS PIQUED.
viii Send No Exhibit to the Colum-
bia EXPOSITION.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The Chinese
Empire has officially notified the State
Department that it will take no part in
the Worlds Fair The Emperor holds
that if his subjects are good enough to
come to the Columbian Exposition they
are good enough to be admitted TO the
United States at all other times.
This ultimatum was delivered TO
the State Department through Min
lister DENLY on Saturday. Mr.. Hitch
cock, representing the Exposition. has
been working hard To persuade the En-
pire to take part in the fair. At the final
conference, recently held between the
Commissioners and the Chinese authorities
the Emperor made known his position.
That Chinese could not come TO the Expo
sition without being put in the humiliat-
ing attitude of needing special passport
to be granted by special act of Congress.
No objection is raised To Chinese mer-
chants already in the United States par
ticipating in the Exposition, but China as
country refuses TO take any part in the
fair.
Representative Springer speaking to a
reporter of the action of the Board of
Control of the Worlds Columbian Ex-
position in deciding TO ask for an appro-
priation of s5,OO0,0OO instead of a loan of
that amount. as was at first contemplated,
said: 81 do not think that there is any
good reason to expect this Congress 10
make an appropriation of the amount
specified, for this Congress will be quite
chary in its expenditures. Nor do
understand that regular appropria-
ton will he asked for. Congress will.
however, / am confident, make loan 10
the Board of that amount, for, guaran-
teed as il will be by the receipts, which
will aggregate three times the amount
asked there will be no failure on the part
of the government to have it repaid. Con-
gress in this way advanced Sl,500,0 coo to
the Centennial, and / know no reason
why, for the Worlds Columbian Exposi-
ton, which will be immeasurably larger,
the sum asked should not receive the
same generous treatment.
