MOTION TO QUASH INDICTMENT.
Dr.. Nancy Guiliords Lawyer Argues Tina
Client Didn't Attempt Murder.

Bridgeport, Conn, Jan. 23-Anothcr
| chapter in the famous yellow Mill Pond
mystery was commenced, this morning
when at the superior court. before
Judge George w. Wheeler J. l.. Klein
| counsel for DR.. Nancy A. Guilford
made his argument for the quashing OF
the indictment charging his client with
murder in the second degree, in con-
nection with the death of Emma Gill of
Southington.
In support of his motion to auash the
Indictment. Attorney Klein argued that
the attempt to prosecute his client on
that charge was an attempt to combine
common law with the statute. He
said that no one attempted to say tina,
his client had been guilty of attempt
ing to commit murder and there was
no attempt to commit murder on her
part. even if she did perform the opera
ton which is alleged to have subse
0uently caused the death of Emma
Gill.
State Attorney Fesesnden opposed
the motion. He said the proceedings
mad been brought in accordance with
custom and that such a motion as made
by the counsel for the defence should
not be entertained by the court The
arguments occupied between two and
three hours and Judge Wheeler reserv-
ed his decision.

WRITTEN BY SAME PERSON.
Applicant for kutnow Powder Sent Cyanide TO
Director Harry Cornish.

New York, Jan. 23.-The Evening World
says: The final report of William j.
Kingsley. the handwriting expert. in the
Adams poisoning case, has been made 10
the police. That report positively shows
that the person who wrote the request
for a sample bottle of kutnow powder
which the agents of the manufacturers
submitted to the police also wrote the
address on the package of cyanide OF
mercury sent to Harry Cornish as bromu
settler Capt. McCluskey and his entire
staff of detectives are now trying TO have
this person identified. How soon that will
be done if il is ever done. is problem
atical. The individual expected to make
the identification is the proprietor of the
cigar store, W1lerc a private letter box
was mainly entered for the purpose of
having the kutnow powder sent there.
Harry Barnet. member of the knick-
erbocker A. c.. of which Cornish is physi-
cal director, died. last November. The
cause of his death is still in doubt but 1t
seems certain that he received 4 kutnow
powder bottle containing poison. The IN
ference is drawn that the same person
made an attempt upon the lives of both
Barnet and Cornish, the death of Mrs
Adams was due to drinking from a bottle
that had been anonymously sent to
Cornish.
Continuing. the Evening World saws:
There evidently Were two bottles of h ut
now powder sent for by the person who
made a present of one of them to Barnet
The second bottle was not called for ana

birmingham. Jan. 23.-At the annual
banquet of the Birmingham Chamber
Of Commerce. this evening, the Duke
of Devonshire. lord president of the
council of ministers, said it would oe
safe to prophesy that the forthcoming
speech from the throne at the opening
of Parliament would announce that the
relations OF the Queen and all foreign
countries continue friendly.
Il think" said his grace. that if the
traditions of etiquette at the foreign
office permitted, it would be possible
that this particular paragraph might
be couched in stronger language 1t is
safe to say that at no period within
our recollection have our relations with
the United States been more friendly
than ut the present moment"
The Duke of Devonshirc said ne
thought Great Britain's recent demon
stration of power and intention to
maintain her rights had led to better
relations with Germany. Italy and even
Russia and that he believed the crisis
with France had cleared the air and
aided the prospect Of Il satisfactory
settlement.
