EVIDENCE VERY
COMPLICATED
Rebuttal and SHrebuttaI in the
Biggar Case.
ATTACK LkURkS CHARACTER
DEFENDANT WILL GO UPON THE
STAND AGAIN TO-DAY.


Freehold. N. j.. Dec. '22.-Frrther tes-
tinony in the trial of Laura Blggar
was given by Miss Biggar today, aud
the defense then rested. Miss Biggar,
cross-exanined by Mr.. Wilson, counsel
for the state. said she had kept her
marriage a secret because Mr. Bennett
had asked her to do so. She said she
had employed Mollie Deskin as her
maid. and had discharged her about a
year ago. The witness said she always
had been a dutiful and faithful wife to
Mr.. Bennett.
Ex- Sheriff Smock of Freehold, called
in rebuttal by the state, said that in
October, 1901, Bennett introduced the
defendant as Miss Biggar.
Mollie Deskin, formerly Miss Big
gar's maid. who disappeared Wednes-
day, returned today and went on the
stand. She testified as to Miss Bjggar,s
conduct in certain instances. DR.. Colin
McDougall of New York testified that
in November, 1901, Mr.. Bennett was suf-
fering from dropsy and other troubles,
and was not in good physical condi-
ton.
The defense said, after several wit
nesses had testified on the point, that It
was willing to admit that Mr.. Bennett
had often spoken of the defendant as
Miss Biggar.
DR.. McDougal of New York testified
that he had known Laura Biggar for
fifteen years. His testimony tended to
show that Mr.. Bennett was not the
father of Laura Biggar's child On
Discrimination DR.. McDougaIl said
that he had a claim against the estate
for $l6,450 for medical services. The
testimony of Dr. Frederick A. Lyons,
surgeon to the New York fire depart
ment, was similar TO that of DR.. Nc
Dougall. DIR. Hendrick was recalled to
the stand when Dr. Lyons was excused.
He contradicted DR.. Dougalrs testi-
mony.
William J. Keogh, for five years a
partner with Mr. Bennett in the theat-
rical business, testified that it was i'm
possible for Mr.. Bennett to have
been in Hoboken ON the date it is
claimed he married Miss .Biggar Mr..
Keogh's records showed, he said, that
on that night Mr.. Bennett was in the
Star theatre in Pittsburg. P. j. Nulty
swore that not long before Mr.. Ben
nett oied Miss Biggar told him that if
Mr. Bennett left no win she would re-
ceive nothing. The state then rested,
and Miss Biggar was called in rebuff
tai to the testimony given by Mr.. Nc
Dougal. Miss Biggar is to go on the
stand again tomorrow when it is ex-
pected the case will close

SEWER Is WILLING.
Soil and Climate Favor That County
For Experiment Station.

Richfield. Dec. 22-Professors Merrill
and HUT who have been holding a Sc
ries of meetings throughout the county
in the interest of the farmers, have
thrown out the suggestion that Sewer
county is an excellent location for the
establishment of q branch experiment
station: that the soils and climate OF
this valley make il a very good and con-
venient point for the southern central
part of the state. This suggestion has
been eageriv seized upon and will be
pushed vigorously. 1t is understood that
SanpeIe county would also like TO have
the station. so that Sewer may possibly
have a competitor
Some are proposing a farther step in
this direction. They suggest that the
main central experiment station be To-
Gated somewhere near the center of the
state that a branch be made Of the Lo-
gan station. and that ,--e station at St
George be brought under the same gen
