time in the afternoon. and with them
was the man whom she accused OF giving
the drug. They stopped at a fruit stand
on Broad Street about half-past clock
to buy some fruit. and the man left them
to get some ham sandwiches.
When he returned with the sandwiches
he gave one each to the two young won-
en-, and offered to Mrs. Harris a drink out
of q small bottle which he said had come
from q soda fountain. She declined TO
take the drink, and says that Mabel Smith
took it. Later this man offered her some
thing out Of another bottle, and she took
some of it. 1t tasted. she said yesterday.
slightly sour. and looked as IL 1t might
be water and chalk mixed.
Immediately after taking this drink
she seems to have become dazed. she
does not know what become of MISS
Smith or the man. but she remembers
dimIy having moved along Fousnee
Street toward West Franklin and OF
having sat down on a door step. From
that time forward her mind was blank
| until yesterday about daylight. when
she awoke to consciousness
Then Mrs. Harris told the story prac-
tically as related above. She has not
been living with her parents for some
time she said. but with friend She
refused to give the address OF this friend.
Her immediate family consists of her
father. two brothers and sister, ana
she has two small half sisters. The fam
lily is well-to-do and Mrs. Harris was
neatly though plainly dressed when taken
to the hospital.
As for the man from Petersburg. Mrs.
Harris said yesterday that he was
travelling man and sometimes he IS IN
Petersburg. sometimes here for day OF
two. She seems TO believe that he was
here Yesterday only for short time and
might have gone away. The name OF
this man she gave, it appears twice IN
the Manchester directory and four or
five times in the Richmond directory.
From investigation it appears that the
man she named could not have been either
of these.
The police yesterday investigated the
story. but it Is improbable that there will
be any arrests. They learned that Mrs.
Harris had been stopping at two or three
places in Manchester lately with Mrs.
Neal of late. Mrs. Harris wlll probably
leave the City Hospital to-day.

SAID SHE WAS DRUGGED.
Mrs. Harris Claims al Attempt Was Made TO
Take Her Lie.

What would seem to be an attempt at
the murder of Mrs. May Harris was &c
yeloped yesterday as 81 SEQUEL to the
finding of this young woman uncon-
scious on the steps OF the residence OIL
DR.. E. L. Hobson, at Foushee and franz
liz, Streets, on Monday night. This at
tempt at murder if murder was intended,
was made through the use of some sub
tie poison administered by Petersburg
man. whose name is known to the police,
in q drink of some supposedly harmless
concoction Yesterday Mrs. Harris, al the
City Hospital, had recovered sufficiently
to clear up the mystery surrounding her
identity. She is rapidly recovering.
From her story it would seem that jeai-
ousy was the cause of the attempt on her
life The man, whose name she has given
to the police, some months ago asked her
to get a divorce from her present hus-
band, from whom she is separated, and
marry him This she refused TO do. Yes
terday she said that the poison had been
given to her in the presence of a young
woman OF this city, Miss Mabel Smith.
but she did not know where this Miss
Smith lives or much about her. She is
only a. casual acquaintance.

ter of Mr.. w. ]. Williams, a prominent

whether this Mrs. Harris is his daughter
or not; he has a daughter named Mrs
Harris but does not know where she is
at the present time. Certain it H. how
ever, that some drug was given to Mrs.
Harris; just what is not known.
Mrs. Harris is apparently about twenty
years old She has blonde hear, gray

medium height. She is apparently well
educated, talks we'll and when seen this
morning was apparently at ease save for
severe pains in the throat. OF which she
complained and a numbness of the limbs.
According to Mrs. Harris story she
came to Richmond from Manchester
Monday afternoon and met a girl friend
here. Mabel Smith, whose address she
doesn't know. She had met her only

CURRENT TOPICS.

The New York Sun has an article puE-
porting TO be written by one who is tho
roughly familiar with Venezuela, holding
that its trouble with Germany grows out
of German financing of q railroad from
Caracas To Valencia known as the Grand
Railroad OF Venezuela. The road is but
10 miles long, and was built by German
contractors, the construction being Ii
nanced by the Norddeutscher Bank ana
the Discorto Gesellschaft, under a CON
cession by which the government guar
anteed seven per cent. interest on the
bonds. which were supposed to represent
only the actual cost of building the rail-
road. The house of Krupp, which had
a great deal Of surplus raw material, and
others obtained the concession and I'M
loaded the goods at a tremendous profit.
The road had track of three feet six
inches gauge and presented no eScep-
tional engineering difficulties, but the cost
was figured out at S145,000 mile. footing
up to nearly SIG 100, 900. The road was
then managed at a cost of Sc. 500 a mile.
or s7oo.O00 per annum, and the govern
ment was called on to pay the bond inter-
est, as all the receipts had been absorbed.
In 1885 an arrangement was made by
which the Disconto Gesellschaft undertook
to make a loan of $40, 1000 to the govern
