said Mr.. Osborne, because they are
contained in the statement made to the
police on Jan. by Mr.. Cornish"
Were you the father Of an illegiti-
mate child?
mo"
"Dld you support for some years
woman and her illegitimate child?"
NO"
"Did you ever aspire to become an
opera singer?"
mo: but l used to take singing les
sons"
Mr.. Osborne announced that that
ended the examination of Mr.. Moli
neuX.
Joseph Moore, night Waterman at the
Knickerbocker Athletic Club, was then
called. He said he went to Mr.. Bar
nets room during his final illness, and
Mr.. Barnet told him that he thought
he had taken poison.
He asked Barnet what poison he had
taken, and Barnet said it was Kut-
now's powders. Moore put his tongue
to the powder and he said it tasted
like a mouthful of pennies.
He sent for DR.. Phillips. When the
latter came Barnet was vomiting.
Moore said that it was general gossip
throughout the club that Barnet be-
lieved he had been poisoned. All the
employees knew II. CORNISH WaSS an
employee of the club, but did not live
in the house. Col. Hamburger's room
was near Barnet's. Hamburger was a
very intimate friend of Cornish's.
Moore said that his first engagement
in the club, two and one-half years
ago, was made by Cornish, who was
then acting manager. He held the joint
position of night Waterman and valet.
Barnet told him some days before he
died that he had taken poison enough
to kill so men. Witness understood,
however, that Barnet's illness was
diohtheria- Moore said he did not
know where Barnet got tine powder.
1t was not long after Mrs. Adams
death that he knew that it was believed
that the powder came by mail, and that
a, search had been made for the wrap
per, at the suggestion of DR.. Ruggles.
He told all he knew about the death
of Barnet to a reporter just after Mrs.
Adams death. at the request Of Cor
nish.
That concluded Moore's testimony.
Mr.. Osborne asked Mr.. Weeks to have
Mrs, Molineux present tomorrow morn
ing, and told Cornish that il he would
bring her friends, Mr.. and Mrs. Hovey,
he would put them on the stand as
soon as court opened. HoVey was in
Mrs. Adams apartments when she
died.
Adjournment was taken until tomor-
row.

BIDDERS STALLED.
WouId-be City Contractors Are Held Up
6V the Storm.

The time for proposals for supplying
the city with water gates and hydrants
closed yesterday at noon, and the bids
were advertised to be opened at that
hour. Bids for cast iron pipe were to
be opened this noon. Water Commits
sioner John G.. Brady received over a
score of kilograms yesterday from bid
ders in both competitions, informing
him that they were stalled and could
not be in Worcester at the hour for
closing the bids.
AS most of the bids are brought to
the opening, by a representative of the
company making them, instead of be-
ing sent through the mail. there was
nothing left for the water commissions
er to do but wait their arrival and keep
the contest open. Under the circum-
stances, he could not tell when the
men would arrive, and when the COM
petition would close and the bids
be opened.
The competition which was to close
today, is the most important of the
furnishings which the water depart
ment will receive. 1t is the competi-
ton for supplying the city with cast
iron pipe. The amount specified in
the proposals which Water Commits
sioner Brady advertised, is $4,000
worth which is a low estimate of the
amount that will be spent in that fea-
ture during the coming year Ac-
cording to the terms of the advertise
ment the city can have 20 per cent
leeway either way, and the water COM
missioner placed the figure low, as the
supplying firms prefer an estimate
which is under rather than over the
real amount that will be required.

letters to prove it. He said that II he

GREATER JAPAN.
Oriental Nation, Like Our
selves, May Seek Expan-
SION

Before the Mems union Of Union
church last evening, DR.. John c. Berry
delivered an interesting lecture on
Japan and the Philippine question, and
its relation TO the United States. There
was large attendance, the meeting
being presided over by John e. Day
After the talk there was a general dis
cussion, during which DR. Berry dis
played the field dress Of the marshal of
the Japanese army. This is a costly
garment in flaring colors and bears
upon the back the coat of arms of the
reigning family.
In opening his lecture, DIR. Berry
carefully described the condition and
manners and customs Of the people of
Japan, and he spoke with authority af-
ter a residence in Japan for over 25
years. Owing to the large tracts of I'M
occupied territory in the northern prov
inces of Japan, he thinks that there will
be no need for expansion outside of the
country for the next 100 years. He
thinks that within the next few years
that possibly the cry Of Greater ia
pam may be heard, but that it will
amount to little.
From an intimate knowledge of the
Japanese and their form of government,
welcome in the Philippines than the
United States. The japanese, as a peo-
pie, do not forget that 1T was the Uni
ted States that introduced her to the
great family of nations, neither do they
forget the sense Of justice that ac-
tuated America TO return to Japan her
own portion of the Shumonseki indem-
nifty.
Japan's interests are also subserved
md ar,ta Mt INV Yn1ipy
by England in preserving the integrity
of China and to resist the advances
there Of European powers to divide up
the empire.
He then touched upon the wisdom of
our interference in the Philippines, and
said that we were in it by the exigen-
cies Of war and for a generation to
come at least, we cannot get out OF il.
AS to the question of our ability to as
sumo responsibility under our political
system, he expressed the belief that un-
der our political system within the next
Is years we will have q colonial civil
service. second to none in the world,
and one that will be an honor to the ma
tion and to Chrlstendom
All the strength of the army and navy
would be brought into activity at once
If any other nation than England or the
United States attempted to occupy the
Philippines Russia and France, how
ever would certainly resist any in
crease Of England's power in the east,
while If Russia moved in such a strug-
gle, Japan would be at her throat in a
moment Viewed therefore, from the
complex political conditions of the
Orient, 1t would seem that the peace Of
the world requires that the United
States of America insure the peace of
the Philippines. and It is the duty OF
the Christian church, in our midst and
1t is also our duty, TO 90 influence pub

An Event That Will Never
Be Forgotten.
Remember the Maine!

Remember the Maine!
1t was just one year ago tonight that
the United States battleship Maine was
blown up in Havana harbor by Span
ish treachery. Some one, as yet un-
known, exploded a mine or torpedo that
night that changed the map of the
world.
The explosion occurred at $40 and
of the 800 persons on board, officers,
$50 sailors and 2S marines lost their
lives. Eight others who were taken
from the wreckage or the sea died
later.
The excitement in this city when The
Spy announced the tragedy the follow
Ing morning, is still fresh in mind Since
then the streets have resounded with
martial music and with the solemn
notes of the muffled drum. A campaign
has been fought and won and new ter
ritory has been added to the United
States far across the sea. Mounds in
cuba have marked the resting places
Of some of Worcester's brave young
men and hearts at home still ache
with cruel wounds. Worcester will
long remember the tragedy of one year
ago tonight, which caused the sleep
ing lion to awake and awe the nations
OF the earth by speedy retribution
Inc destruction of the Maine was
borrowed by an investigation by a court
OF inquiry which was appointed by the
United States navy department, Feb.
II, 1898, and which reported March Fl.
that the loss of the Maine was not due
IN any respect to fault or negligence
on the part Of any of the officers OF,
members of the crew, and that the
Maine was destroyed by the explosion
Oh a submarine mine which caused the
partial explosion of two or more of her
FORWARD magazines.
On the 18th of March the Senate for
elSn relations committee made a re-
port in which it declared that "the de-
struction Of the Maine was comprised
either by the official act of the Span
ish authorities or was made possible
Dy negligence on their part so will
ing and gross as to be equivalent in
culpability to positive criminal action'
and that the Maine had been buoyed
over the mine by the express guidance
and direction of the Spanish author
ities. April 20, the United States sent
an ultimatum to Spain, giving the
Spanish government till noon of the
23d in which to decide whether it would
relinquish it's authority and govern
ment on the island of Cuba, or fight.
On the 22d of April. President Nc
Kinley issued a proclamation declaring
a blockade of the north coast of Cuba,
and on the 23d he issued a proclama-
ton calling for the enlistment of 1885,
900 volunteers. Then came war the
destruction of the Spanish fleet in Ma
Mia bay, the campaigns in Cuba Porto
Rico, the destruction of Cervera's fleet,
the capture of Manila and the suspen-
sion of hostilities pending the adoption
+ Of a treaty of peace.
The tragedy in Havana harbor one
year ago this evening caused the de-
struction or capture of II Spanish
cruisers, two torpedo boat destroyers
and q gunboats.
