IMPARTIAL EXPERTS NEEDED.
The Medical Record Draws a Professional
Lesson From the Harris Trial.


Lesson From the Harris Trial.
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-The Medical Record,
edited by DR.. George F. Shrady, will, in its
next issue, publish the following on the re-
cent poisoning case which resulted in the
conviction of Carlyle w. Harris for the
murder of his wife:
AS might have been anticipated, it was
not difficult to make these experts fatty
contradict each other on essential points
and thus hopelessly muddle the unscienrific
brains of the jury: but this display of con-
Trajectory evidence was not without its les.
son to the student of medical jurisprudence
in emphasizing the necessity OF impartial
scientific commissions whose functions
should be advisory and explanatory to the
court as opposed to the customs of experts
who are avowedly engaged to take the side
of one or the other
In commenting upon the case from
scientific point of view, it is fair to say that
the evidence clearly pointed to morphia as
the cause of the victims death, notwith-
standing the able testimony to the contrary
offered by gentlemen of acknowledged ex-
perience in pathology and the micro-chem-
istry of poisons. 1t was also plainly to be
seen that pathological LESSONS, claimed to
have been possible in the brain and kidneys,
could not be demonstrated weeks after the
burial and when decomposition had COM
menced.

THE WEATHER.

The shallow cyclonic area that developed
over the plains of Western Kansas during
Wednesday night, has increased in energy
and moved over the Indian Territory anu
Southwest Missouri. This storm Will IKeiy
increase in power and move over the ONO
Valley during Friday. 1t will likely pe Az
tended with gales on the lake, and rain from
the Gulf north to the lines OF its path, nortn
Of which SHOWS will prevail.
Behind and moving eastward with the
storm a cold wave will flow, with nortnerly
wave from Kansas to the Texas coast. Storms
will increase and the rain area reach the
Alleghenies during tho day, and portions OF
the Atlantic States Friday night, when the
storm center will probably reach the Upper
Ohio, and upon the Alleghenies heavy rains
or SHOWS may be expected. Another storm
has appeared north OF Montana, anu VIII

Slavin and Choynski.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4-The California Club
directors met last night and considered the
advisability of a six-round go between Joe
Choynski and Frank Slavin. The latter is
expected here in short time, and as he is
on q money making expedition, it is fair to
assume that he will be glad to meet Choyn-
ski for fair-sized purse. Should the match
be made Caliiornians will have an oppor-
tunity of forming an intelligent estimate of
the chances Slavin will have of whipping
Peter jackson Choynski is anxious to have
the fl hit arranged He is confident of being
able to hold his own with Slavin. As God
dard twice knocked out Choynski in four
rounds, if Slavin is as good as reported, six
rounds ought to be equivalent to a finish.

NEW YORK, Feb. AT a meeting of the
Executive Committee of the National Asso-
citation of Trotting Horse Breeders to-day, it
was unanimously decided to establish q new
stud book for the registration of high-class
trotters, exclusively. This movement
is the sequel to the recent action of the
American Register Company, OF Chicago, in
admitting PAGERS to their register on an
equality with trotters. The sentiment
among Eastern breeders is almost n unit
against the admission of the PAGER to the
trotting standard. Headquarters will be
located in New York, with q. e. Cue, now of

Rules governing the making of records and

PARIS, Feb. 4-Two financial houses in
this city are in trouble. Two of the mem
bers of the firm, it is announced, were ar
rested last night and subjected to most
searching investigation, which lasted
throughout the night
The police refuse to say anything in re-
gard to the reported arrests. The Temps
hears that the arrested culprits will be re-
leased in order to protect "a high political
parsonage implicated in the trouble and to
avoid n financial crisis which would involve
6, ,250, 900 francs.
What originated rhe panic was the sus-
pension of the negotiations of the Ottoman
Bank with Swiss banking syndicate for
the creation of an Eastern stock trust Then
came the rumor of the arrest of banker, an
affair which turned out to be merely mat
ter of deficit in an industrial enterprise
guaranteed by the family of the inculpated
manager.

That Is What Is Agitating The Pub
Lie Mind.
WE ALL KNOW THAT SOMETHING
MUST SOON BE DONE ABOUT IT.
How To Meet a Great Crisis Among Our
People.
Something must be done about it.

Something must be done about it.
There is no doubt about that.
And that something must be done quick
ly, or it will be too late
On behalf of our readers we have made
some very important investigation in this
vicinity, and we have to report that our
apprehensions were correct and are sub
Stimulated by the facts. We found that
there is greater proportion of our towns
people who are the victims of some form
of nervous or chronic disorders, than ever
before in our history. 1t is fact beyond
doubt that these diseases are increasing
in our midst at an alarming rate.
Feeling that something must be done at
once in the matter, we have been in con-
sultation and communication with sever
al of New York City's most eminent Dhy
sicians--all specialists in the treatment
of nervous and chronic diseases, and we
give our readers their opinions and adj
vice as to how to effect q cure in these
cases.
DR.. S. M. Reynolds, one of New York
Citv's greatest specialists. says unhesitat-
ingly and emphatically:
Use DIR. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy in all such cases. I have
never, in tpractice of over twenty-five
years, recommended a patent medicine.
This greatremedy, however, cannot be
considered under that head, AS it is ply
sician's prescription. | have used it
among my patients and in my family, and
] unhesitatingly pronounce it the most
valuable remedy for the nerves have
ever used.
DR.. Henry PETER, also eof New York
City's great physicians, says:
''Tell your sick people to use DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, / have used it in my practice with
wonderful results. / have found it per-
feet and complete cure for patients In
my practice who were suffering from all
forms of nervous troubles, sleeplessness,
headaches, nervous weakness and debil-
ity.o
The great New York physician, Emil
Neumer, M. D., physician-in-chief of the
New York Lodge and Association Hos
pital, writes us:
eve are using DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy at the Hospital
for our patients with good success
Other physicians gave us the same adj
vice for our people, and from the unani
nifty of opinion of the doctors, we are
assured that this great and widely-known
remedy is just what our sick and suffer-
| ing citizens require to restore them to
health. All the doctors say that it does
cure, and all sufferers from nervousness,
weakness, poor blood, debility, stomach,
kidney or liver troubles should give it an
| Immediate trial. We know that it is a
purely vegetable and harmless remedy,
and our druggists have it for sale at 81.
Another thing of great consequence is
this, that it is the discovery of DR..
Greens of 81 Temple lace, Boston,
Mass, who is renowned specialist in
curing nervous and chronic affections,
and he can be consulted free of charge
concerning any case, personally or by
| letter.
