STessional investigating committee, was re-
sumed to-day in the court room OF the

! before was brought out, save in the testi-
mony of an old colored woman named Liz

| of whom became hopclessly ratified by the
! vigorous cross-eXamination to which they
were subjected by Major Warner, of Kan

ney.
! Ex-Governor L. y. Morrill, was the first
witness called to the stand in rebuttal. In

| testified: - was elected by congress to be
| local manager for the Leavenworth home
| in 1881. to succeed Governor John a. Mar
tin. l visited the home quite frequently
| as local manager. L first recommended the
| introduction of the keeley cure into the

II never saw any unkind treatment of the
! inmates on the part of the governor and [
| invited complaints against Governor Smith
rather than discouraged them.
Governor Smith spoke to me about some
regular soldiers taking the Eeeley cure at
the home and / told him by all means to
| give II to them. IL it did not interfere with
! the home members.
Il never saw the slightest indication of
! Governor Smith drinking since he took the
| Kelley cure. nor have l had the slightest
| suspicion of it. ! have frequently been a
| guest at the governors residence"
| Governor Morrill, was subjected TO a long
| cross-eXamnation, but was not shaken in
! his evidence in chief.

was the next witness. and testified that he
knew MierS Powell and denounced as alb
sOlutely false all the testimony that had

/ Sional committee.
! Jones testified that Powell was annoying
| ard refused to obey the hospital rules and
/ that he placed him in the restraint ward
on his own responsibility. The attorney
exhibited the written order from Governor
