O'Clock without making any material
progress in discovering tho party or
parties guilty Of the infanticide.
DIR. Tice. who made q post mortem ex.
animation yesterday, testified that there
was no doubt that the infant was white;
there could be no question OF that fact;
that it most probably came to it's death
by blow on the base of the brain. but
that the death could have been from
other causes, and that the child lived
about one hour after birth
The next witness p!ac ed on the stand
and the only one whose evidence was in
any way sensational was Walter z
Davis, who said he wss in the employ
of the Norfolk and Western; that he
picked up scraps Of brass along the
track. His idea of veracity was evil

hour, but nothing bearing on the case
was brought out

NO results.
j. w Camper testified tina, yesterday
he overheard two negro women, whom
he did not know, on Commonwealth
avenue, say that Aunt Lou said either
Mrs. Allen or Mrs. Brown gave her the
child to bury and that il was her
daughters.
Nearly all the witnesses who we're ex-
amtned the day previous were rein
PRODUCED with little or no result except
this evidence was brought out, that it
is currently talked that John William
Saunders and Charlie Stanheld went to.
gether to bury the child, that John Will.
liam sent Charlie after a pick but he
stayed so long John William placed it
in the qrarry and covered it with rocks.
A reporter visited the notorious
John Williams in.his quarters in jail
last night, where he was perfectly &C
