"Two years ago I was a great suf-
ferer from womb trouble and profuse
flowing each month, and tumors would
form in the womb. I had four tumors
in two years. 1 went through treat
ment with doctors, but they did me no
good, and I thought I would have to
resort to morphine. .
"The doctor said that all that could
help me was to have an operation and
have the womb removed, but I had
heard of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine and
decided to try it, and wrote for her
advice, and after taking her Vegetable
Compound the tumors were expelled
and I began to get stronger right
along, and am well as ever before. Can
truly say that I would had got
ten well had it not been for Lydia E.

Of the Chicago platform OF 1895, and the
followers of the Norris faction, which op-

At the headquarters of the Bryan Exec
utive Committee it was claimed that
frauds had been committed in all districts
except in the First, Thirteenth, and Eigh-
teenth. Ii was determined that a demand
should be made upon the District Central
Committee for a new primary election.
and committee consisting OF William
Carr, 7. p. ODay, and J. W. Collins was
appointed TO present this demand. Should
this be denied, the Bryan Executive Com

Among the Irregularities charged By the

mat repeating was praeticed.
The voting OF the Fist precinct, which
was dcHe in Anaeostia, was very tame and

5s3 for the delegate OF the opposing faction.

they were led to believe that the voting
would take place in Brightwood Hall
which is on the second floor of the hotel
building. and that they were induced to go
20 the hall after the preliminary meeting
believing that the ballot box would be
placed there. About twenty minutes later
II is claimed. they found that the ballotins
had been commenced in one of the parlors

KILLING OF JAMES LEE.
William stump ON Trial for Murder
In CriminnI Court No. L.

William Stump. who Is on trial in Grim
inal Court No ], charged with the mur-
der OF James Lee, coiored, on December
u last. testified in his own defence yes
terday. His plea was that of self defence
and he claimed that had he not killed Lee
he would no doubt have lost his own life.
Stump's story of the circumstances which
led to the quarrel which ended in the
killing of Lee differed very materially in
nearly every particular from that told by
the witnesses who testified on behalf
of the prosecution.
The defendant stated that he was about
thirty five years old and was born in Old
town, Cumberland County Md. He had
known Lee, the man he killed, all his life.
He aware that the deceased was a
man of violent temper and was generally
considered by those who knew him as
desperate-a man who would not hesitate
at doing anything when angered. Often
before. Stump stated. he had had trouble
with the deceased, and on more than one
occasion Lee had threatened TO kill him
Remembering this. when he saw Lee COM
ing toward him with a knife in his hand
and swearing that II was his intention
20 cut him 10 pieces he felt that his only
hope to save his own life was to take Lee's $.
or at least disable him so that he could
do him no harm.
The next witness was Edward Owens.
colored. the only eyewitness to the affair.
Owens said that Lee was sitting at ta-
BILE eating his supper. Lee asked, who
left those dirty dishes?" and the witness
answered that he did not know. Lee had
his back to Stump. Stump. the witness
stated said to Lee: Jim, | believe you
are mad with me" Lee denied that he
was angry but Stump insisted that he
was and without further words went to
Lees bed and taking a pistol from under
the pillow fired at Lee. The latter jumped
up and ran out and as he was passing
through the door Stump fired the second
shot. Stump left the house after the
shooting.
At the hour OF adjournment the cross
examination of the defendant was not fin
ished and will be continued this morning
