THE ASYLUM TROUBLE.

Did Gov. Nelson Understand the
Effect of the New
Law?
Special to the Globe

Special to the Globe
FERGUS FALLS, Minn., May 8.-The
exodus of physicians from the st. Peter
insane hospital may perhaps be ex-
planned by what has been learned here
today. The local member of the board
of trustees, Mr.. Mason, has had nothing
to say on the subject, but from purely
outside and unofficial sources it is
learned that the trouble is one of the
Outgrowths of the recent changes in the
board made by legislative act. 1t is
said by gentleman here who claims to
be in position to know that the old
board did not appoint Supt. Tomlinson
al st. Peter for the reason the members
were advised not to do so without
thorough trial first, by officials IN the
asylums where he formerly was
employed. There were no charges
made against oupt Iolnlln,
to him were to the effect that so far as
professional skill and capacity were
concerned. he was admirably adapted to
conduct any hospital IN the country, but
with this commendation was coupled a
cautionthat his temper9mentWaS such iG
was difficult to keep up harmony i'll the
institution. The old board did not wish
to be haSty in any way, and therefore
installed Supt. Tomlinson temporarily,
with the view of waiting to see if the
characteristics charged would develop
themselves. Then came the governors
signature to the legislative act which re-
moved theold board and disappointment
of the new set of trustees. 1t is said
All letters and documents relating to
Supt. Tominson were laid before the
new board at it's late session in this city,
but in spite of them he was elected
to the uperintendency by a unanimous
vote.
A gentleman who was asked in regard
to the matter this afternoon said: "Ihe
difficulty is one of final manifestations
of a hight which Senator Davis conduct
ed III the late legislature against GER
tain members of the old board Of trus-
tees, by which he was successful in re-
moving them from Office. From what L
have heard do not wonder that physi-
clans who have had taste of the insti-
tuition have stepped down and out, even
TO the newly erected assistant superin
tendent. think that Gov. Nelson was
not sufficiently informed in regard to
all the circumstances when he signed
the bill which removed the old board.
Certainly, the action of the new one in
this matter promises to lead to good
deal of annoyance to all those con-

The Grandest Electrical IL
lQminations Ever Seen in
the Country.
Thousands Of Lights Cover
the Mammoth White
Structure.
The Committee Wrestle for
Four Hours With the Mu-
sic Row.

CHICAGO, May S.-A magnificent dis
play was witnessed by thousands of
visitors to the fair tonight, when the
whole electric force stored up within
the grounds was turned on, making one
of the grandest electrical illuminatlons
ever seen IN the country. Preparations
had been going on for two or three days.
and the elimination tonight revealed a
scene as beautiful as a dream Of fairy
land. All the skill of science the
croWning triumph of the electrical age
united IN portraying in the most glow
ing phantasy the dainty beauty of the
White City. Thousands Of electric
lights cleaned from almost every crew
ice of the exterior of the Ad-
ministration, the agricultural, the
electrical. the manufactures and
the liberal arts buildings. The
great white structures that front
on the peristyle and grand basin stood
out like palaces of marble, and the fig
ures upon them were like things of life
under the glare of the thousands of
electric lights and the search lights on
top of the various buildings. The cleo
trcal fountains on all sides sparkled in
myriads of colored lights that took the
form of all that is beautiful in nature.
Each of the electrical fountains re-
quire about 100000 candle power, and
the entlre battery of machinery hall
supplied it. There are 1000 lights in
the administration building, 1000 on
the agricultural, 5000 on the electrical.
700 on the peristyIe, $50 arc lights on
the manufactures, 800 on the casino and
music hall and 600 on machinery hall.
The illumination began at O'Clock and
last until II p. III.

Several Witnesses Examined by
the Investigating Committee.
CHICAGO, May s. The Theodore
Thomas investigating committee was in
session four hours today. Several wit
nesses were examined. among them be-
ing DR.. Peabody, who is in charge of
the liberal arts and music; the chief
harplst who could not play on any but
special make of harps. and for which, by
the way, he was receiving salary from
the manufacturer; and lady harpist.
The latter testified that it did not make
very much difference to her what make
of harp she played upon. A majority
of the experts so far examined by the
investigating committee voice one idea,
viz: That any good musician car play
on any good instrument, the manufact-
urer cutting no figure i'll the case what
ever. Several of the committee are
greatly wrought up over the matter, and,
as stated by one of the members late
this evening, the whole question will be
sifted to the bottom, and cuipable per-
SONS will be dealt with severely. The
committee will be in session tomorrow
afternoon.

The Mother OF the Dead Boy
Makes a Statement.
SING SING, May S.-There was very
impressive scene at the Amber house
in the afternoon when Mrs. Harris saw
the reporters. 1t was few minutes
after O'Clock. This remarkable woman
had endured not only the grief of
mother losing her firstbOrn, but had
suffered the agony of having her son,
whom she believed innocent, branded
as murderer and killed by the state,
and yet she stood there calm and pas
sive waiting for the score of newspaper
men to enter. Then facing them with
dry eyes and firm voice, she said:
at has been said that Carlyle Harris
was guilty because he shed no tears
when Helen Potts died. | shed no tears,
and God knows l loved Carlyle Harris.
My boy was innocent. You men who
saw him die know that he went to the
chair all innocent man. With his last
words he declared his innocence, and

judicially murdered. Els last statement

he was dead. and | have not received it
yet. | do not think | shall ever see it,
at least not as my boy wrote it. 1t was

today, but am powerless to carry it"
Mrs. Harris then gave out statement
for publication, in part as follows:
Though an innocent boy has been
judicially murdered. can praise him
for even this last ordeal. AS soon as
saw my boy felt he had grown spirit
ually. He made no professions of con-
version, but very quietly told me he
prayed to God, had asked His forgive
ness, and (though not sure of immortal
ity) trusted i'll God for the future. There
was no confession of the crime for
which he was charged-how could there
be? He felt very deeply the disgrace
