DOGS TORTURED AT
U.OF P, WOMEN SAY
Neglected After VivisectiOn, Is
Testimony at Trial of
Professors.
MISS OGDEN FAINTS AWAY
Witnesses Tell of One Animal
Set Free With an Extra
Long Hind Leg.

PHILADELPHIA, April 16-M,ss Hem
rietta Ogden. star witness against DR..
Joshua l.. Sweet OF the University of
trial before Judge Breezy under charges
Of cruelty to animals based on his vivi-
section experiments, tainted under a
fire OF cross-examination to-day.
Murdoch Kendrck. counsel for Or.
Sweet, examined series of notes which
the witness had made OF her observations.
Miss Ogden said OH direct examination
that these were the original notes. Mr..
Kendrick asked IL they weren't copies.
Miss Ogden admitted that she had copied
the notes for convenience.
Mr. kendrick asked quickly: IT
thought you sworc they were originals?
What did you mean by swearing that
these were originals
Miss Ogden sank slowly into the arms
of the court attendant, but was soon re-
vived.
The Commonwealth. which is prescott
ing a case prepared largely by the
Women's Pennsylvania Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, closed
its case at the morning session. The
prosecution tried to show merely that
vivisected animals were fed on garbage
and otherwise neglected for months in the
animal muse AtlutHtu 10 tllt
medical laboratory.
Miss ogden and her sister, Miss
Bertha Ogden. who were instrumental in
instituting the prosecution. swore 20 a
half dozen cases In which dogs had been
found in tho animal house with UNI
bandaged wounds and in various states OF
neglect. All of these animals. according
to these and other witnesses, had no food
but what might be gathered from the
garbage pals at the university hospital,
and much OF shis was fermenteb.
All the dogs in question had been vivi-
sected in various ways. one was partly
paralyzed and another had what one OF
the witnesses called IAN extra long hind
leg" This case was one OF the expert
mcnts in bone grating.
Policeman William j. Boyd testified
that he had been in the animal house
several times and had noticed that the
food for the dogs consisted OF garbage
from the maternity hospital. and said
il contained bandages. sticks and
even spoons. knives and forks discarded
from the tables in the hospital. lie had
noticed no cruelty, except on one occa-
sion he had seen dog with an extra
long leg. 80 long that they could not
fasten Anymore bones 10 it
DR.. james G. Corliss of Newark. y. j..
former head of the New Jersey Humane
Society. said that the vivisected animals
were improperly treated at the university
animal house.
Dr. Sweet was the first witness for the
defence. He said that the medical faculty
appointed him director of the animal house
and the position included general over
sight OF the kennels.
The animal house was built at an eS.
pense Of $4,000. he said. after consulta
ton with experts in such matters. lie
said that food was obtained I'm part from
the kitchen of the university hospital.
He had never seen any f"rmcnted food.
and to prevent fermentation in the sum-
mer time an iceboN was provided in the
animal house.

The movement TO place an anti-Murphy

Mr.. Murphy" the Judge said yesterday,
"and the National Democratic Club will
be one OF tho instruments In that fight.
We shall oppose him at the primaries II
Gov. Glynn does the right thing and In

ments to the direct primary law which

These amendments are necessary ~
we are to have a fair contest in the

may be sure they will not be those OF

in that manner could be reformed from

Judge ODwyer was asked whether mo
intends 10 resign from the National Demo-
cratic Club presidency because tho board
OF governors reinstated Mr.. Murrhy and
his friends. NV
Nothing has happened TO cause mo 70
thihk Tor moment OF taking such sten
certainly not the reinstatement of AR
Murphy he said. The club sboued
what the members think of Mr.. Murnhv
when they voted to condemn his lead
ership ut the meeting in February. Tn.
position OF the club is unchanged.
HIS reinstatement did not chanue
the clubs position OF opposition to him
ana TO what he stands for.
The club is unquailedly opposed to
Mr.. Murphy. I am somewhat infer
tunate in INV board of governors There
is Thomas +. Smith. who happens Also to
