of a person who had died OF arsenic
poisoning would be we'll preserved years
after DEATH
The proceedings this morning had a
smoothness about them that was in
marked contrast to the turbulence of
yesterday Mr.. Brooke even went so
far as to say to the recorder that he
would not make specific objections by
word of mouth where his former OBJ
jections applied. This course would ia
cilitate progress. His objection former
ly made would apply to what followed.
Mr.. Brooke objected to certain deduc-
lions of DR.. Mott, because he didn't
have all the stomach. However, DR..
Mott said that the percentage showed
that half of the stomach had in it 66S
grain of arsenious oxide and also .1446
grain of antimony.
What Was in the Pitcher?
DR., O'Sullivan next turned his atten-
ton to the pitcher.
Where did you first see it?"
I'm the district attorneys office"
What did you do with it?"
Il took it to my private observatory,
where l submitted the contents to a
chemical analysis"
He found it contained sediment sup
posed to be from clam chowder. In his
examination he discovered some crys-
taline substances and also piece of
organic matter.
Il have this last here with me-" said
DR. Mott, and held up a small bottle.
AS DR.. Mott had not received the con-
tents of the pitcher until November
Mr.. Brooke renewed his objection to
receiving any testimony concerning DR..
Motifs experiments. Recorder Golf
ruled against him.
In the course of his chemical analysis
of portion of this sediment DIR. Mott
obtained mirrors. Some of these mir
rors dissolved instantly, While others did
not proving the existence of arsenic
and anthony.
Continuing, DR.. Mott said that from
the contents of a bottle which he re-
ceived in the district attorneys Office
and took to his laboratory he obtained
by chemical analysis yellow orgentic
arsenite and acrimonious sulphide,
which demonstrated the presence of ar
senic and antimony. This bottle was
marked Bottle containing the last
vomit of E. NJ Bliss" When this tes-
timony was all in Mr.. Brooke moved
that it be stricken out. His motion
was denied.
The Prisoner Ill at Ease.
When the evidence touched upon the
cutting of stomach tissues Mrs. Flem-
ing appeared rather constrained and i'll
at ease; but the ordinary descriptions
of chemical analyses didn't worry her
at all She even smiled pleasantly and
whispered to Mr.. Brooke,
He smiled, too. But when DR.. O'Sul-
Ivan asked DR. Mott what he estimated
the total of the arsenic to be in all the
parts examined. leaving out, of course,
the pie, Mrs. Fleming famed rapidly,
and then stopped and listened intently.
Tell u.s." said DR. O'Sullivan, of
each exhibit and what arsenic you iso-
lated from it,
From Peoples Exhibit H." answer
ed DR.. Mott, slowly and deliberately,
(which was labelled Bottle containing
the stomach of Mrs. E. M. Bliss" ] sep
arated out what was equivalent in ar
senic to 1925 grains That is what |
actually took out. A percentage analy-
sis showed that I could have taken out
Mr. Brooke stopped DR.. Mott
did you take it all out?"
NO"
How much anthony did you ind
in Exhibit H?"
1.-THE amount of antimony actually
separated was .229 grain, but by per-
centage-"
Mr. Brooke stopped Dr. Mott again
over Fifteen Grains of Arsenic.
The recorder, however, allowed DR..
Mott to say that he estimated that
there remained 1.13 grains of tartar
emetic in this exhibit. He also allowed
him to say that upon percentage esti-
mate the portions of the stomach held
by DR.. Mott contained 1904 grains of
arsenic alone
There is part of the arsenic now Wis
ible as SEDIMENT"
Yes"
DR.. O'Sullivan turned to the decanter
which contained the stomach of Mrs.
Bliss, one-half of which went to DR..
Mott From portions of this tissue he
separated 1881 grain of arsenic and
.0273 grain of anthony estimated as
tartar emetic. On the percentage basis
he found present 1868 grain of arsenic
and .1446 grain of tartar emetic.
Interchange of Doubtful Compliments.
DR. OSullivan and Mr.. Brooke got
along very amiably up to this point, al
thought there had been a tightness of
courtesy which showed that the snap
ping point wasn't far off. 1t came when
DR.. O'Sullivan stopped to whisper some
thing in the ear of Mr.. Mcintyre. Mr.,
Mcintyre sits directly in front of the
jury box.
"You have no right to make those
remarks in the presence of the jury"
said Mr.. Brooke, stiffly. Dr. O'Sulli-
| vans voice was pitched in a low tone,
Some people are long cared" an
swered the doctor, with a sarcastice
smile.
Some people have long motives" re-
piled Mr.. Brooke, reddening and losing
| his temper.
"Eavesdropping, however, is not in
their line" retorted DR.. OSullivan,
sweetly.
Gentlemen! Gentlemen" interrupt
ed the recorder.
The interchange of personalities were
dropped, for the time keing, to be re-
sumed at the first opDcrtuair,.
DR. Mott was asked whether anv
other things had been sent to him for
examination. He answered that there
