TRIAL OF DR. BUCHANAN

When pr. Robert w. Buchanan was arrested in New York on June 6, 1892, for the poisoning of his wife, it was the beginning of a long litigation before the authorities could so completely connect him with the crime as to convince the jury of his guilt This was not pos- sible until April 26 of the following year, and more than two years elapsed before he was finally brought to jus tice
 Dr. Buchanan was a Nova Scotian, who had been living in New York for twelve years before the murder was committed. While a practicing phy- sician there he married Annie Patter- son, in 1883, and procured a divorce from her in 1890. Shortly afterwards he married Mrs. Anna B. Sutherland, but before doing so he prevailed upon her to will to him the various property she possessed.
 After living together nearly two years, in April 1892. Mrs. Buchanan was taken suddenly ill and two physi- clans were called upon to prescribe for her, but she died on April p, 1892. The body was embalmed and inferred two days later, where it remained until the Carnegie Laboratory in New York, for examination.
 The death, owing to the peculiar ac- tions of Dr. Buchanan, was looked upon as irregular, and at the examin- ation unmstakable signs of the pres enee of morphine were found in the stomach. When the specialists made their report Dr. Buchanan was accused of poisoning his wife, and he was ar rested, charged with murder. Three days later he was indicted.
 The trial was begun or March 20. 1893, and continued until April 26. It was not until March 2S, when Assistant District Attorney O'Beirne presented the case to the court, that it was made evident that it's character was more than of the usual interest, and that it bore a very close resemblance to the wife poisoning case of Carlyle Harris, which had been of recent occurrence. During the trial considerable testi-
 mony was produced regarding Buch- anans comments on the stupidity of Carlyle Harris, and also the pleasure he expressed at his Wifes death, and how after he had administered the last dose to her he left the house and did not return until after her death. | Several days were consumed in the | expert testimony as to the evidences of poison in the stomach. On Apri 1 20, Buchanan took the stand in his l own defense He was exceptionally 1 nervous during the ordeal. The taking of evidence was concluded on April 21 1 It required several days for a summing
