CARLYLE HARRIS CASE
New Evidence of Importance
Said to Have Been Found.
CHARGES AGAINST DIR. TRevERToN.

Sworn Statements Alleged to Have Been
Obtained from Helen Potts. Girl Friends
to the ET, ct that She Was Confirmed
Morphiuo Eater-Dr. schuIe's Opinion.
SCRANTON, Pa, Feb. 8. 3.-Evidenoe which
It is believed will be of great Importance
In the case Of Carlyle Harris, now under
conviction in New York for the murder OF
his wife, Helen Potts, has just been dis
covered here.
Mrs. Harris, the young mans mother,
has been spending some days here and it
is principally through her efforts that
the newly discovered evidence has been
gathered.
Col. Frank Fitzsimmons, the Scranton
attorney in the case last night forwarded
a mass of material evidence TO Howe &
Hummel, the New York attorneys and
has still much evidence which will be
produced when the case comes up again
next Monday.
The newly found evidence has been OBJ
tained from Helen Potts friends and in
Inmates while she was visitor here at
the home of her uncle DR.. @. w. Trever-
ton, and from physicians of high standing
in their profession.
Many letters have also been received by
Col. Fitzsimmons from persons who just
now desire their names withheld, but
who are willing to be summoned as wit
nesses il needed
Some of these letters are from young
ladies in the Hyde Park section of the
city, who, during Helen Potts visit here,
associated with her, and who were spoken
Of as the "arsenic eating coterie, " and
who know more about the troubles of
the dead girl than they have heretofore
cared TO reveal.
The evidence gathered shows that Miss
PoJts was a confirmed morphine eater.
Sworn statements have been secured from
her girl friends as to this point, and to
other things.
1t is also said that there is evidence tc
contradict the testimony Of DR.. TrevertOu
| given Mt the trial in New York as to the
| girls physical condition while she was
| visiting here
| The claim is also made here that what
ever operation was performed on the girl
was done by Nreverron while she was at
+ his home, Treverton's wife being Mis-.
! Potts aunt.
| Col. Fitzsimmons will also present evi
| dence as to the record of DR.. Ireverton
Treverton left this city some time ago
and is now, it is believed, living in Chi
cago. Treverton's house burned shortly
after the conviction OF Harris, and moth
| ing was saved from it but his diploma
showing that he graduated from the Uni
yersity of New York.
Trevert6n received over 81, 600 insur
ance and soon afterwards left for th
| West. There is also talk that Dr. Trev
erton encouraged his niece in the use o
morphine, and it is stated that prescrip
tions that he gave her have been procure
from Hyde Park drug store and are Ger
titled to as being filed for the girl.
Mrs Harris says that she is greatly en-
couraged by the turn of affairs and full
believes her claims to the innocence Of he
son can now be established.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Feb. 3.--The First
National Bank of this city is not open for
business to-day. Its Liabilities are un-
derstood to be over 5000, 600
About ten days ago the bank passed
through a terrible crisis. Through the
timely arrival and assistance of Col. Lo-
gan Ii. Root, its former president, con
iidence was again restored, and the pub
lie had begun to think the institution as
solvent as ever.
The cause that led to the suspension
of the bank was the issuance of fraudu-
lent paper by the former officers of the
bank to the amount Of several hundred
Thousand dollars.

Failures and Lower Prices Continue

The failures the week ending May 20
throughout the United States and Canada
foot up 273, an increase Of Is over the week
previous. A drop also in the prices of cottor,
wheat and corn; imports in three weeks OF
May were $5,818 ,472 larger than they were
last year, with the export of more gold is
the cheerful outlook the monopoly papers
report, and then try to extract sunbeams
from such cucumbers. The large import Of
foreign goods shows plainly the deplorable
conditions in Europe. Our merchants would
not buy those goods if they did not get them
for almost song. Goods are low in this
country. dislressingly so for those who have
TO produce them, bit the prices continue to
fall and part of our remaining money is
sent abroad to balance accounts which
continues to decrease the already small
volume of our circulating medium. This
condition will cont;nne-must continue till
prices reach universal level in both con.
tinents. At present the high Nc Kinley
tariff assists in keeping up the disparity of
prices between European countries and the
United States, and when the duty is lowered
more goods will come here from abroad,
and prices will steadily fall as the balances
are supplied by the shipment of gold, which
is the most convenient and salable COM
modify at price Gxed by the minis OF
England.
There is worse trouble ahead and the
repeal OF the present silver law, if such
could be effected which it cannot-would
intensity the trouble, unless the repeal was
substituted by a free coinage law. That

The only interest that the reconciliation of
silver would have negative influence on is
the three thousand millions OF gold debts of
the world, which is generally held by Jew
bankers. Prices would take general rise
and that debt and the interest it draws would

holders OF that debt would not depress and

Sumptuary Legislation.

Hon. Thomas F. Bayard gave these taking
political catch words to the democratic
politicians, and the saloon adopted them as
one Of its strongest appeals to the public for
license to make drunkards. They improved
on the phrase somewhat by inserting the
"personal liberty" plank in the saloon dec
laration of principles. The democracy has
gone back bravely on The sumptuary law
principle in South Carolina by taking the
liquor business entirely out of private hands
and placing it under control of the State.
This, in our judgment, is about the wisest
thing that has emanated from the councils
of that party in many year, but it goes
squarely back on the anti-sumptuary prin-
cjple. But the road heading towards reform,
for that matter, is always the very opposite
of democratic party measures. The State
government dispensaries which will open in
South Carolina on July LIST promises great
reform in the liquor tratfice, and by a
method the exact opposite of that proposed
by the prohibition party, and the fanatical
portion of that party are fighting mad over
it. They had much rather the saloons would
remain open forever than they should be
closed by any other than their prescribed
mode. On the other hand the more sensible
and practical portion of the party, and
prohibitionists who don't train with the
party, favor a trial OF the South Carolina
plan.
The dispensares are 10 be open from Z
o clock in the morning till 6 O'Clock in the
evening. and no person will be served more
than once day, and DO drinking or hanging
round the premises will be allowed This
bursts up the saloon practice of enticing
boys and of furnishing a rendezvous for a
rowdy element to collect after night fall and
make night hideous with their drunken
brawls. No license will be sold to private
persons TO retail whskey, and drinking will
be confined TO purchases by the bottle and
taken away. When bad use is made of this
personal liberty" a complaint TO the officer
of the dispensary will curtail or entirely
stop the sale of liquor to such parties.
The saloon will disappear from politics,
and private gain from the sale of liqnor
being abolished there is no longer any
incentive for any person 10 insist on the
NECESSITY" of the liquor traffic. The
excuse for "high license" is cit up by the
roots, on the theory that high license
restricts the sale of whiskey and places it in
control of the State. The State dispensary
places the business absolutely under control
of the State and turns all the revenue into
the treasury, which completely knocks out
the license policy for the sake of portion
of the profits going 10 the treasury.
The State dlspensary plan which is about
to be placed on trial by South Carolina,
completely carols the liquor business, and
temperance workers will have fair slap at
it to narrow the evil, till the dispensary
will sell nothing but pure alcohol for
mechanical, medical and scientific purposes.

A CARD.

Mr.. EDITOR
Kindly grant me space for brief state
ment. Weeks ago it was announced in all
the local papers in this vicinity that my
SOD, ohm D. Hanes, the cashier of the
Bank here, had accepted a position in
Omaha, Neb. He left May 9th, sooner than
anticipated, because he was notified by tele
gram he must assume the work by June LIST.
Like many, be has been unfortunate in
business matters and is under financial obi
cations TO sundry parties. His sole purpose
I of changing his location was to secure
salary more than double what he can COM
mand here, so that he can Discharge these
obligations as fast as possible.
No sooner had he departed than a clamor
was set up and charges offs most serious
nature were circulated regarding him, prin-
cipa.ly by parties who were in no wise
interested, but who seemed called upon to
talk louder than those who were, and of
which they will feel ashamed They have
not stopped short of the most disgraceful
Misrepresentation as to amounts and most
serious ISLANDERS in regard to him and the
position he held in the Bank
admit and deeply deplore his indebted
ness; am sorry for the Indebtedness of
anyone, even for some of those who have
raised the greatest clamor in this case, but
| defy them or anyone else to produce
the slightest evidence to show that he is
guilty of any criminal act-the slightest
evidence that his accounts as Cashier of
the Bank are not as straight as line, or
that ii will lose one dollar by his course.
On account of this clamor and the cir
cumstances attending it, I have, of my own
free will and accord, without suggestion or
influence, resigned my connection with the
Dictatorship of the Bank; and my sons
together with myself will devote our best
energies and ability without abatement to
the one purpose-that of discharging our
combined obligations, which are not nearly
so large as public gossip has made them.
We cannot, however, submit in silence to
SANDER, and will hold responsible those who
are liable for its origin and circulation.
Asking patience, forbearance and charity,
which alone will bring out the best results,
and hoping and expecting to put to shame
some who have been unkind, am,
Your fellow citizen,
JOB HAINEs.
