FOR AND AGAINST HARRIS.

Several Witnesses Testify Before Conn
missioner Raines-Mrs. Potts Makes
n Denial OF the Statement Credited
to Her.
NEW YoRK, April 2s.-The taking of
evidence In the reopened Harris Gaze was
resumed this morning before Referee
Raines. The first witness called by Assist
ant District Attorney Weilman was DR..
Byrne v. Tompkins, who treated Helen
Potts in 1889 for an intestinal disorder.
The treatment in that instance consisted
! of mixture of opium and bismuth. The
doctor said the young woman responded
to this treatment 30 promptly that the wit
| ness was led to the belief that she was not
| q habitual morphine eater.
DR.. Robert Lewis was next called. He
| treated Helen Potts for slight general de-
bility and at neither time did he notice any
evidence of morphine.
Miss Day, principal of the school attend
| ed by Helen Potts, testified that to her
knowledge Miss Potts had only taken med
icine twice while pupil at the school and
that the girl never left the school while
there without her kno wledge.
Miss Annie N. Reed, the assistant prinet-
pal at the same school, gave similar testi
mony.
| A reporter named King testified that he
| visited all the drug stores in Asbury Park
q year ar 30 ago to see If any of them ever
sold morphine to Helen Potts. They all
denied having sold morphine to the young
woman.
Then several witnesses were called by
the prosecution to testify concerning the
character of DR.. Kinmouth, who says he
sold morphine to Helen Potts. All the
witnesses declared that on questions of
money or sale of liquors, especially the
! latter, DIR. Kinmouth's reputation was not
of the best. The witnesses confessed they
principally objected to the doctor because
he sold liquors In temperance town.
One witness said he had heard that DR..
Kinmouth must have been well paid for
his affidavit In Harris's behalf. Mrs. Har-
ris, who was present, here arose and de-
clared that the doctor did not receive one
cent.
Mr. Raines was angered at Mrs. Harris
interruptions and stated that If she inter
] fered again he would have to ask her te
J leave the room.
! After recess DR.. Knmouth took tn,
: stand and produced his prescription book
containing three morphine prescriptions
one of which Ia declared to be for Heller
! Potts.
f Mrs. Potts, mother of Helen, was mex
: called. She denied ever having said al
f would go crazy IL Carlyle Harris was exc
Q cuted.

route. Large and small American Gags
seemed to float from every house, and
| there were many flags of other nations
adding diversity to the display of bunting.
In comparison to this the side streets sp-
peared rather bare.
Although the program called for re-
oeption at the mayors Office in the city
hall, 1t was abandoned by general consent,
partly on account CT the lsteness of the
hour when the parade had reached that
point.
While getting into his carriage at the
Victoria hotel President Cleveland struck
his head against the carriage top, cutting
his scalp. He bled profusely for few
moments and entered the hotel where the
wound was dressed. When the president
again came out he was greeted with great
cheers, long continued. He lifted his hat
to show that the wound he had received
was trifing. He barely saw the head of
the column coming down Broadway when
he had to leave to catch the train for Chi
oago.

night put an appropriate cspsheaf on the
