NEW YORK. Dec l2-For the first
time since the beginning Of the. MoIineux
poisoning trial the proceedings today were
conducted without interruption of the
order of proof
There was only one witness on the
stand. He was Kinsley, the handwriting
expert. Il was his fourth day as Wit
ness, and when court adjourned for the day
his direct examination had not been com
pleted.
Mr. Kiusley was made to repeat in as
many ways as District Attorney Osborne
could put The question that in his opin-
ion Roland b MoLneux wrote The letters
that are signed n c. Barnet and III
Cornish, that have been admitted in the
case as evidence, and that he also wrote
the address on the package that contained
the poison Harry Cornish received through
the mail, dose Of which he administered
10 Mrs. Catherine }. Adams. causing her
death
Mr.. Kinsley had made remarkable state
ments on the stand regarding the ability
or the inability OF any two human beings
out OF the billion and a haIf who make
up the worlds population TO write alike
Mr.. Osborne evidently thought that there
was danger OF a question arising about the
fairness Of his witness, and he took ocCa-
sion early il the day to bring out from him
statement that he had come TO the con-
clusiOn that all the writing was done by
MoliueuN only after he had examined
many thousand specimens of the admitted
handwriting OF more Jnan one hundred per-
sons. de had examined the handwriting,
be said OF every member OF the knicker-
booker Athletic Club. In the course of Lis
examination name was brought out that
had not heretofore been mentioned in the
trial and which there is very general
understanding viii figure later on. perhaps
in a sensational manner. The name was
that Of j. Morton Riggs, who was once
member of the club.
One of Mr.. 0sbOrne's statements con
Yeyed an impression that MolineuX had
done his best TO conceal his real hand
writing when he wrote specimens for EX-
pert Kiusley and he contended that certain
peculiarities that had always before ap-
peared in the handwriting Of MolineuX did
DOt appear after MClineuX had talked with
mis- handwriting expert. David y. CaTvalho.
Mr.. Osborne was promptly called TO order
for the remark by MolineuX's counsel. and
the recorder directed that the jury must
disregard it,
Mr. Kinsley illustrated his testimony
from start to finish By illustrations on
white paper with oil crayon. There was a
Eameness about much Of the testimony that
made il dry hearing But one thing notice
able was that the members Of the jury
seemed TO be interested in all and fre-
Quently interrupted the proceedings 10 ask
questions themselves. Another noticeable
feature Of the day was an extraordinary
absence of objections and a decided
change in the manner Of the recorder. who

JOHN DOS PAssos' TESTIMONY.
Gives His Views on Trusts Before the
Industrial Commission.


At the request Of the Industrial Com
mission John r. Dos Passos, the well
known New York author of works on
international law, gave testimony on the
subject of trusts and speculation yesterday.
He said that he represented no interest
He commended the Commissions enquiry
as a proper one and suggested that a simi-
lar commission should have been appoint
ed to enquire into the railroad business be-
fore the passage OF the interstate COM
merce law. This statute he pronounced
the most remarkable legislation ever en-
acted"
From this point Mr.. Dos Passos passed
into general condemnation of useless and
injurious legislation, saying that it would
be an advantage If all the laws enacted in
the United States since 1S4S were destroyed.
Every law made he pronounced a nail in
the coffin Of human liberty.
He contended that there had never been
any monopolies in this country, in the
strict Interpretation of the word unless IN
The case Of patent rights. There was no
monopoly IL the present aggregatiOus of
capital These combinations were the nat
ursl and necessary result OF existing con-
diiious. Referring to the overcapitalization
Of corporations, and especially OF railroads
be said that such vercapitalization was
the result generally OF the difficulties Of
raising money in the first period OF the
history Of an enterprise and of the growth
Of the country.
Mr. Dos Passos asserted that the natural
laws Of comerce were an efIectual barrier
against monopoly. He asserted that it had
been found impossible effectually to corner
any real staple. Leave the laws of nature
alone. he urged, and they would take care
Of themselves, ANY corporation attempting
to control any industry would soon find
itself confronted by competition.
