GRAY" CONFESSION AFAKE

Washington, March 1S.-Four rifles from
Company b, Twenty-fifth infantry, were
used in the Brownsville affray if the
ordnance department of the army can
snbstantiate the reports sent to the Sem
ate committee on military affairs today

the streets of the town on the morning
following the shooting. .
All of the rifles in the possession of the
battalion al Fort Brown on the night of
August 13 We're sent to the Springfield
arsenal and two shots were fired from
each. The shells were compared with
those picked up at Brownsville, and the
officers making the tests reported that
it had been demonstrated beyond dispute
that four guns of Company We're used
in discharging all of the shells. The re-
ports were made a part of the committee
records and Lieutenant Hawkins of the
ordnance department and G. A. Spooner,
expert inspector of gauges, used in the

The defense had three new experts in
court today, making seven altogether ap-
pearing for the defendant. The alienists
new to the case are: DIR. Charles w. Pill
grim, superintendent of the Hudson River
State hospital at Poughkeepsie, N. Y,
and president of the state lunacy commits

The other four experts for the defense
are: Drs. Britton d. Evans and Charles
G. Wagner, who already have been on the
stand, and DR.. Smith Ely Jeliffe and
Graeme NJ. Hammond, who have not as
yet been called, but have been in court

DeImas Objects.
Mr.. Delmas objected to. the Introduction
of the print also, and long argument
ensued.
b Mr.. Delmas said the Photographic copy
of the affidavit could not be introduced to
contradict Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, for she
was not shown the copy on the witness
stand and had no opportunity either to
affirm or deny her signature.
Mr.. Delmas argued further that the
copy of a paper was not competent evil
dence on which to contradict a witness.
He cited a case in which court had held
that the original papers only could be in
troduced against a witness. and that even
certified copies of papers were incom-
petent.
District Attorney Jerome went to some
length in explaining that the original Of
the Hummel affidavit had been traced to
Mrs Thaw's hands, and she had said no
such paper existed. Under these circum-
stances he said he should be allowed to
introduce secondary evidence in the shape
of copies of the original. The evidenciary
value of Photographic copies, he contend
ed, had frequently been sustained by
courts.
Mr., Delmas concluded his argument BY

Confession on Record.


Senator Foraker had the alleged con-
fession put in the record with the denial
which had been furnished to Chairman
Warren by the war department. The
Ohio senator also had recorded the fact
that there was not a man named ID. w.
Gray in the discharged battalion, but
that there were two men named Gray
one G. W. and the other G. Y in Com
pany B. Both of these men were heard
from today, denying that they had made
confessions. One is in West Virginia and
the other in Pennsylvania. Two men,
bers of the Twenty-fifth infantry were
examined today and no testimony was
given which had anv direct bearing on
the shooting, except that of Henry Wat
son. private of Company NJ Twenty
sixth infantry. lie testified he was left
behind on guard at the post when the
Twenty-sixth moved out and that he saw
loose shells of both the Krag and Spring
field type lying about the barracks. He
said that he also saw thirty-eight calibre
revolver ammunition lying around, and
that the barracks we're open so that citi-
zens could secure access to this ammuni-
tion. On cross-examination he admitted
that it is always easy for soldiers to
secure ammunition IL they desired it.
The committee took up today the ques-
ton of going to Brownsville in connec-
tion with the investigation. 1t was de-
cided that it probably will be necessary
to visit Brownsville, but no action was
taken toward fixing a time for the trip.

Sergeant McCurdy Called.

Two of Company BIS rifles, said to have
been used in the affray, were kept in the
storehouse under lock and key, of which
the key was in the possession of former
Quartermaster Sergeant McCurdy, and
the two other rifles were said to have
been issued to Private j. Wilson and
Thomas TAYLOR.
Senator Foraker Immediately had SUBJ
poenaes issued for Taylor and Wilson
ana for the recall OF AfcCurdy He also
asked that the war department be in
structed to send for Lieutenant Laurison
who commanded Company b at the time
of the the ARRAY. Secretary Taft, In a
letter to the committee, pointed out the
men who did the shooting may have used
any guns they could secure, and that Tay-
1or and Wilson could not be held guilty
of the shooting-up of Brownsville, or
the theft of guns from the arsenal
The alleged confession of ID. w. Gray"
supposed to be a member of Company b,
which was printed at Galveston, Tex,
was formally denied today in tele-
gram from Major Blocksom at San An
tonic to the war department. Major
Bloeksom said in his dispatch that he
had received a telegram from the chief
of police at Galveston saying that the
publication was a fake.

81 wish to inform you that your
wonderful Cuticura has put a stop to
twelve years Of misery l passed with
my son. AS an infant l noticed on
his body red spot and treated same
with different remedies for about five
years, but when the spot began to
get larger l put him under the care
of doctors. Under their treatment the
disease spread to four different parts
of his body. The longer the doctors
treated him the worse it grew. During
the day it would get rough and form
like scales. At night it would be
cracked, inf1amed, and badly swollen,
with terrible burning and itching.
When 1 think of his suffering. it nearly
breaks my heart. His screams could
be heard downstairs. The suffering

lone doctor told me that my sons
eczema was incurable, and gave it up
for a bad job. One evening I saw an
article in the paper about the wonderful
Cuticura and decided to give it a trial.
Il tell you that Cuticura Ointment
is worth its weight in gold, and when /
had used the first box Of Ointment there
was q great improvement, and by the
