DAMAGING TESTIMONY
Cause Alleged Murderer. o Young
Girl to Cringe--Court koom
Densely Crowded.

A special from Paterson, n. j.,
says: Interested crowds filled the
court room Wednesday during the
trial of the three alleged murderers of
Jennie Bosschieter, the mill girl.
The state having rested its case
Tuesday night, the days proceedings
began with the presentation by coun-
sci OF the case for the defense. OF
the three accused men, Death most
Showed the strain through which they
were passing. McAllister, on the
other hand, was comparatively self
possessed; but Campbell was evidently
troubled aud anxious.
Michael Dunn in delivering his ad-
dress opening the case for the defense,
promised to prove that the death of
Jennie Bosschieter was not caused in
the commission Of o criminal assault,
and also that the charge of willful
murder could not stand against the
defendants.
Mr.. Dunn proceeded with a narra-
tive of the events preceding the death
of Jennie Bosschieter, the purpose OF
it being to show that the meeting OF
the four men, McAllister, Campbell,
Death and Kerr, was not prearranged
and that the girl made the first ad-
vances that opened the way for the
meeting at Sasl's saloon.
In the saloon, according to counsel,
the girl drank freely, taking cocktails
and absinthe. She became drowsy.
Then she was escorted from the saloon
to the hack, McAllister and Death
walking on either side Of her. She was
not carried, the attorney said. The
narrative of the counsel for the de-
fense proceeded with the ride in the
hack to the place where the girl died.
She had become unconscious and the
men lifted her from the hack to the
ground. where they kneeled around
her and made every effort to revive
her, rubbing her hands and face. She
was taken with nausea and the men
used their pocket handkerchiefs to
wipe her face.
The hackman, counsel said, was mis-
taken when he testified that the &C.
cused men assaulted the girl. De-
spairing of succeeding in restoring
the girl to consciousness the men put
her back in the hack and drove for aid
to the house of the nearest physician
The death of Jennie Bosschieter,
counsel said, was accidental; her
drink was not drugged and her person
was not violated by the defendants.

AYC0CK KlSINSTALLED
North Carolina State Government
Changes Hands.
DEMOCRATS NOW In CONTROL
Republican Governor Turns Ove>
Office With Well Wishes For
the New Regime.

At Raleigh, N. c., Tuesday, the in
auguration ceremonies were carried
out perfectly in every detail. About
1000 people were in Capitol square
and as many more on the streets near
by. Governor-elect Aycock arrived at
the railway station soon after IL
o'clock and was given demonstra-
ton. It was noon when the legisla-
ture s seated in front of the capitol.
Half an hour later Governor Aycock
and Governor Russell, followed by all
other outgoing and incoming officers,
appeared on the platform, while the
band played "Dixie." Master of Cere-
monies Francis Winston said:
"Gentlemen of the General Assem-
bly,, Ladies and Fellow Citizens: The
inauguration Of the twenty-third elect
ed governor of North Carolina will be
opened with prayer by Rev. d. A. A.
Marshall"
The minister prayed that the COVER
nor might rise above party and be gov
ernor of all his people, and that the
memory Of Vance, whose bronze statue
was so near, might nerve and inspire
him. Mr.. Winston then presented
the new officers as follows:
First Corporation Commissioners
McNeill end Rogers.
Labor Commissioner Vaner, Com
missioner of Agriculture Patterson,
Attorney General Gilmer, Superintend-
ent of Pulic instruction Toon, Audit
or Dixon, Treasurer Lair, Secretary
Of State Grimes, Lieutenant Governor
Turner.
As each was sworn the retiring off,
cial stood up.
Governor Russell stepped forward
and said to the legislature and peo-
pie:
81 present for qualification. accord
ing to the constitution and law, the
governor-elect of this commonwealth. /"
A great demonstration came after
Governor Aycock took the oath. He
looked the picture OF health and made
great speech, to which the great au-
dience gave undivided attention. Gov
ernor Aycock turned to Mr.. Russell
aud said:
"Henceforth let hatred and strife
cesse among u.s."
When he concluded Governor Rus
sell shook hands with him. Current
comment is that Aycock's is the strong
est inaugural address ever delivered
in Raleigh. There was great applause
at his demands that henceforth ballots
shall be counted as cast, and that oil
persons shall be educated. His ad'
dress made a profound impression
upon Republicans and Populists, who
expressed admiration.
A review of troops followed the in
auguration. The provisional regiment
of infantry, twelve companies, three
divisions of naval reserves and four
companies Of cadets passed in review,
making an appearance which impress
ed the governor and the 10000 spec
tators.
An incident of the day was the ap-
pearance near the speakers stand Of
an aged man with large silk banner
with the words "White Supremacy"
on one side and 1.-THE Ladies' Banner"
on the other side. Near him was q
boy, ON whose uplifted hands was
perched q white rooster, from whose
neck swung Aycock's portrait. Hun
dreds of people wore Aycock's picture
on the front of their hats.

A London special says: On his ar
rival at Portsmouth en- route from
London to Coves, Emperor William
was met by a guard Of honor. The
party, however, dispensed with the
usual formalities and Immediately
went on board the royal yacht Alberta.
AS they started for Cowes the band on
the flagship, the Majestic, struck up
the national anthem, and Emperor
William, the prince Of Wales and their
royal relatives barred their heads.
When the royal party disembarked
at Cowes during the forenoon a good
sized crowd was there to greet them.
The party drove Immediately to Os-
borne house. The crowd naturally re-
Trained from cheering and silently took
off their hats.
The emperor cordially and frequent
ly responded by bowing. They drove
to Osborne house in open carriages.
The prince of Wales appeared to be
half dazed, and the duke of York's
eyes were red, while the duchess OF
Connaught did not cease crying.
The London Daily News refers to q
eulogy of the dying queen by Bishop
Potter, of New York, and says:
"Bishop Potter compared her maj
esty to Washington. No American
could 90 further than that"
The Daily Telegraph says: -
'.It seems but brief interval since
England was the center Of almost
universal hostility. Today all inter
national hostilities are hushed and
stilled as they never were before BY
any single event in the annals OF the
world"
: The Daily Chronicle observes:
''In the United States the nation and
government display once again the ir-
repressible sentiment of a cognant peo-
pie. The strain of common blood
which flows in British and American
veins has been rarely more manifest OF
more warmly recognized"
This evidence of universal sympathy
extended toward England in her honr
of trouble is, in fact, the leading
theme, and the Standard remarks:
"There is no enemy of England too
bitter and no protesting contemuer OF
crowns and thrones too fanatical to
admit the virtues and service to man
kind of Queen Victoria. "
Most of the German newspapers ex-
press sincere concern as TO Queen Vic
toria and praise Emperor William tor
going to Osborne. The agrarian and
pan-German journals, however. take q
different tone. The Deutsche Tages
Zeitung, the leading agrarian organ,
concludes an abusive article In this
style:
followed by decline. That she has
seen the beginning of such decline
has given Queen Victoria a death
stroke. She saw the commencement
of the decay of that whose splendid
development she had Witnessed dur
ing her long life. This is the tragic
finale of her prolonged reign.
"The most important question tor
great Britain now is whether the new
King will be able to find his way out
of South Africa again.
Some of the papers already discuss
the Prince of Wales as the coming
sovereign, and The Berliner Tageblatt
prints dispatch asserting that he is
Germanophobe in his feeling. ID
