tBPECIXL COBRXSrOXDEXCX OF TnE DISPATCH. 2
ItLLBOtTENE, December 24. The trip of
the kill .players from Sydney was seemingly
bat a brief interruption to the generous and
unstinted hospitality -which they have re
ceived at the hands of Australia. The last
hour of their stay in Sydney was passed at
a reception at the Grosvenor Hotel, where
theAJI-Americas made their headquarters.
The ubiquitous and flowery member of
Parliament, the "Bon. Dan O'Connor, pre
sided, and again soared aloft with the
American eagle in expressing his admira
tion for Americans. The manager of the hotel
paid the players a great compliment by stating,
in an address, that their gentlemanly deport
ment had never been equaled by any of the
numerous football or cricket teams that bad
patronized his house.
Our journey from Sydney to Melbourne was
Interesting, but New South Wales in the way
of railroad traveling is about 100 years behind
the age. We had a special train, and we had
to travel 600 miles.
The monotony of the travel soon had its ef
fects on the players, and they began to ex
change visits with each other despite the
warning in the car not to lean against the car
door, or tbe law inflicting a fine of $2 for open
ing It. They would climb from one window to
anotner, and after passing a pleasant interval
with their neighbors would return to their own
bunk again. At one time nine people were
squeezed into one of the small compartments,
and entertained themselves with speechniaking,
recitations and singing. The guards were
doubtless horrified, but did not interfere, and
gave the players every opportunity of getting
out wlien the train made short stops. The
people on the sleeper were somewhat more
comfortable. There were five ladies in tbe
party, and thee with their husbands and a few
others nearly filled np the car.
IT WAS DULL AND DINGY
but palatial compared with the car occupied
by the players. It had none of the conven
iences of the modern sleeping car when made
np for retirement. The lower berth was not
over a few Inches from tbe floor, which made
the upper berth reasonably comfortable. The
mattresses were hard and thin and the pillows
were scarce larger than what a self-respecting
little grl would demand for a respectably sized
doll carriage. There were no curtains in front
to give privacy to the sleepers, and the ladies
were put by themselves In the forward end of
the car. a curtain separating the two sections.
Everything was cheap and uncomfortable and
but little better than the compartment car,
where tour people slept on two lounges, blan
kets and pillows being furnished by the guards.
The supper station was at a place called Matta
cong. Twenty-five minutes was the time al
lowed, but most of it was spent in having a
poor meal served slowlv, and the party returned
to the cars, as the bell sounded almost as
hungry as when they entered tbe saloon.
Everybody was awakened at 6 o'clock in the
morning when a place called Albery was
reached. This is on the dividing line between
the colonies of New South Wales and Victoria.
A change of cars is made and baggage is in
spected by the custom house officers. Victoria
is a strong protection colony, while New South
Wales believes in free trade. So Intense is the
enmity between the colonies that the gauge of
the road Is changed, that of the Victorians be
ing much widerabout 5 feet 3 Inches. The
cars are also much more comfortable. They
are roofed like American cars and have wide
seats, that give more comfort to six people
than four obtained in the cats from Sydney.
They made splendid time, and the distance to
Sydney was made at an average speed of 4S
miles per hour, going at times as nigh as a
mile per minute.
THE BOYS AT SIELBOUENE.
We arrived in Melbourne and were enter
tained like lords. The boys, however, took
care of themselves. As representative base
ballplayers they are not only reflecting credit
on themselves but on the American national
game itself. One of the most noteworthy
events of the week was a banauet tendered
them last night by Charles Warner, an able En
glish actor, who has made a great success in
tbe colonies. It was a delightful affair.
Melbourne is considered the great sporting
center of the colonies, and a big crowd was
expected at tbe opening game on Saturday
afternoon at tbe Melbourne cricket ground.
Much interest was felt In the game, and a
somewhat general feeling was expressed that
the game would probably take a firm hold. The
favorite sport here is f ontliall, but that Is re
served for winter, when 25,000 and 80,000 people
turn out to see a game. Cricket is not esteem.
ed as highly as in other years, though it is still
called the national game. So much has the
Interest in it lessened that scarcely 100 people
attended the matches when the All-England
eleven were here last year.
The two ball teams played a great game .in
the afternoon ; they played with vim and spirit.
The contest ended in an hour and a quarter,
and as this short performance didn't suffice an
other game as played between tbe Chicagos
and seven cricketers and two of the All Amer
icas. - Howeve:, the good points that aroused
the Sydney people, such as fielding and base
running, aroused the Melbourne people.
BASEBALL PKOSPECTS
It maybe somewhat premature to predict the
possibility of its having made a lasting impres
sion, hut tbe chances are favorable for such a
result. Tbe cricketers who played said they
liked it sufficiently well to try again.
While passing out of the gate I overheard a
conversation between two of tbe spectators
that comes near expressing what I think was
the popular verdict on the game. The speaker
had the appearance of a workingman, and he
said: "Those Yankees are smart fielders.
There 's more sport and fun in one of their
games than there is in six games of cricket;
but it will never supplant cricket."
The native papers think that baseball clubs
will be organized here. Some papers claim and
argue that cricket will be the favorite game for
a long time. It is admitted, how ever, that
cricket, professionally, is on tbe wane, and that
tbe elements of excitement and dash, as well
as skill, are superior in baseball. Tbe visit of
tbe baseball clubs is gladly commented upon,
and It is not unlikely that the game will ulti
mately find firm ground here, especially as the
betting people appear to be interested. The
following is tbe score:

The trip around the world has been decided
upon. Much of the arrangements depends on
the willingness of the League magnates to ex
tend the date of the openi.ig of the baseball
season to May L Mr. Spalding does not expect
to make the trip pay, but hopes to be able to
recoup somewhat by a series of games in the
principal baseball centers on his way from New
York to Chicago.
The two teams will play their second game
here this afternoon. On Christmas morning
they leave for Adelaide, where they will play
two games. They will play a game at Ballarat
and return to Melbourne next Saturday night.
S. GOODFRIEND.
WORE LOCAL TROTTERS.
Mr. Robitzer Resolves to Bare a First
Class Stable.
Something like a, bona fide effort is being
made by a Pittsburger to establish a stable of
trotters. Mr. John T. Z. Robitzer, the Liberty
street liquor dealer, has made a resolve to fully
enter tbe ranks in the first-class degree or not
at alh He has started in tbe right way, and
already has a stock of nine horses, the oldest
being only 4 years. Mr. Robitzer has been
accumulating on the quiet for some time past.
Now that he has resolved to enter his 4-year-old
in races this year inquiries were made yes
terday regarding his new stable.
Mr. Robitzer has, among his nine horses, two
promising youngsters. The best looking, prob
ably, is a 3-vear old stallion named Nat Good
win, dam "Lilly Swartz, by Vermont Black
Hawk. Nat has alreadv attracted the eye of
all the best local judges. He is a well-built
colt, and has remarkable speed. Ho will be
tried In races this ear, and may be used a lit
tle in the stud next fall.
Probably Mr. Robitzer's most popular horse
will be John Davis. He is 4 years old. and is
by Oberlin, who is by Harold, sire of Maud S.
John Davis last fall showed a 2:40 gait, and Mr.
Robitzer is confident he will win a purse or two
this year. Ho certainly will be tried. He will
be entered in local races in the way of making
a debut.
Among tbe remaining seven are two Blue
Bull mares. They will be bred to Nat Good
win, and In this way Mr. Robitzer expects to
rear some good stock of his own. The balance
are yearlings, and all by well known horses.
The stable is under the care of Mr. Martin
Wing. He broke Nutwood and Duquesne, and
both of these stallions have earned a national
reputation. Mr. Wing is confident that Nat
Goodwin and John Davis will very soon get
into the 0 class. He says that Davis is just as
promising a goer as Nutwood was.
CAREFUL ABOUT THE CASH.
Anxious Prepnrntions for the McAuIifle and
Meyers Bnttle.
Stkkatob, 111., February 8. To guard
against taking so large an amount of money to
tbe ring side at the coming contest between
Billy Myers and Jack McAuliffe, the backers
of the pugilists have decided on the Chicago
Jnter-Ocean as the final stakeholder.
A private dispatch to Alf Kennedy states
that J.N.Taylor.of Boston, the temporary stake
holder, will arrive in the city on Saturday and
turn over the $3,000 now in his possession. Tbe
remaining $2,000 will be deposited on the day
of tbe fight.
A report from Danville, I1L, says the fight
will come off at that place to-morrow night. But
such is not tbe case. Tbe fignt will undoubt
edly take place before the loth Inst, probably
about the 12th, within 70 or 80 miles of Chi
cago. Tbe greatest secrecy is maintained in
order to escape the officers of the law. Both
men are trained to weight, and are ready at
any moment to step Into the ring.
Interference is not wanted, as each man is
desirous of having the question ot supremacy
settled. It is thought the fight will be a long
one.
Will Go to Hot Springs.
There was a meeting of the directors of the
Cleveland club yesterday afternoon. At it tbe
plan of early spring conditioning of the team
at Hot Springs, Ark., was approved, and the
men will gather therebetween March 10 and 15.
Manager Lof tus was notified to that effect by
wire, and will so order the men to report.
General plans for the season were also dis
cussed, but nothing of public interest was
done. Sheffler, tbe fielder who came in with
the Detroit deal, was released. He cost $700
and brings in nothing. Some days ago J. F. C.
B act hurst, attorney for the Brotherhood of
Ball Players, wrote on Sbeffler's behalf to the
Cleveland club, and on his plea the player was
set free. He claims to have offers from several
clubs, is not salable property, and isn't fast
enough for the National League. Plain
Dealer.
Mohicnn Dead.
Tekre Haute, Ind., February 8. Mohican,
the most valuable stallion of W. R. McKeen's
Edgewood Stock Farm, and one of tbe best
known horses of the Western country, died at
1 o'clock this afternoon of congestion and kid
key trouble. President McKeen is reputed to
have paid $17,000 for the stalliou in 1S87 to J. D.
Yeomans. of Buffalo, N. Y. This is the second
severe loss suffered by President McKeen's
stock farm. Keina Victoria, his $7,000 brood
mare, and a half sister to Mohican, dying last
Fridaj.
President-elect Harrison visited Edgewood
Stock Farm three weeks ago for a day of recre
ation and inspected the valuable stallion. Mo
hican's sickness began last Monday.

York, Philadelphia, Wilmington, Camden and
Atlantic City sporting men will go to see the

Mike Cleary and Jim Murray. The referee will
be selected on the ground. .
Mr. Booth's Pacer.
William Booth, of Allegheny, has purchased
a promising young pacer from tbe Jewett farm,
Ohio. He is 5 years old, is named Billy P, and
is by Billy Green. JoeHeldeger has him now
in charge, and Joe says that he has gone a mile
in 229. Whether this be true or not, he is a
good-looking fellow, and will be tried in races
at Wheeling, Washington and this city this
year.
Another Big Race.
Ne.w York, February 8. In addition to tbe
two stake races ot 5,000 each, one for the
3-minute and tbe other for the 236 class, to be

stake race for foals ot 1SS5, $100 entrance, and
the club will add S500 to the stake.
The Female Runners.
Manager Davis received six entries yester
day for his three-day female pedestrian con
test, which takes place at the London Theater
on the 21st iust. Aggie Harvey, tbe well
known No. 2, has written from New York, stat
ing that she will certainly start in the race.
About five or six of the contestants will com
mence training in tbe theater on Monday.
The Baldwin Shooter.
The Baldwin Gun Club held an interesting
shoot at the Point View Hotel yesterday. The
chief event was the match between Messrs.
Slicker, Reilly and Hopper, which was won bv
the first named. Mr. Slicker broke 20 out of 23
blue rocks; Hopper broke 14 and Reilly 10. Tbe
next shoot will take place February 23, at which
there will be two matches.

TBE DeSoto Club, of Minneapolis, will offer
a purse of 31.000 for a finish fight between
Domlnick McCaffrey and Jack Dempsey, if
their terms are not accepted by the California
Athletic Club.
Manager PniLLirs emphatically denies
that anybody connected with the local club
ever thought of not giving Chuck Lauer every
Eosslble chance to make a name for himself,
tatements to the contrary are neither true
nor fair.
IT IS FINISHED.
Continued from Firit Page.
the current can be mado from mild to painful.
Now couldn't that in the hands of a malicious
person be a mild form of torture, of extreme
punishment?
A Yes, it could be made an instrument of
torture. It would not necessarily draw blood.
I never knew it to, but in a case of a powerful
shock 1 don't know what it might do. I never
heard the doctor swear. I always thought
Maharneke was very kind, so far as I saw. I
remember Dutch Henry having a straight
jacket on, and he told Maharneke he wouldn't
behave if he had it taken off. He swore he
wouldn't, as evoryone, including tho authori
ties, had imposed upon him.
Slagle Is Henry still in the hospital?
Maharneke Yes, sir.
Mrs. Mair Did I understand you to say you
could stand the full force of the battery!
Holman I think I could.
Mrs. Holden-Wouldn't it be more painful If
it were put on the tongue?
A Not necessarily so.
He was then excused, and Chaplain Milligan
took the stand. He had been chaplain since
1SC9, and his duties wore to hold service in the
female department Sunday morning; also two
more services. He also had charge of the mail
and moneys sent to friends; also supervision of
the library. He goes around the blocks every
day. He had access to all prisoners ana tne
hospital.
Kelly How often do you visit the hospital?
Milligan Sometimes frequently, and some
times not for two or three days, unless I am
sent for. Every prisoner going out to work Is
atlowed to drop a note in the box if he wishes
without let or hindrance.
Don't Like the Stralghtjackct.
Q. Have you ever noticed any forms of
cruelty?
A 1 have never seen anything except the
straightjacket.
Q. Do you consider that cruel?
A Well, candidly and honestly, I don't like
the straightjacket, but I never heard any com
plaints of cruelty. I understand jackets were
medical treatment. I heard them complain
they were on so long they wished they were off,
and that a man could never get well with them
on.
Q. Did you ever hear complaints?
A I heard not very long ago; No. 8658 com
plained to me that the influence of the battery
had been very painful, and affected his ears. I
don't know why it was used on him. I never
heard of the doctor extorting money in any
way.
Maharneke What was tbe tendency of the
language of prisoners to me?
' Milligan I never heard any remarks about
you, either kind or unkind.
Wright Can you remember of how McPhil
lamy got into the hospital August 30?
Milligan I can't remember that date. I was
at an encampment at Conneaut Lake about
that time.
Scott Do you recall the circumstance?
Milligan 1 remember seeing McPhillamy in
bed all doubled up. He said he was very sick
indeed, and I spoke to the doctor about' him,
as I do frequently. I visit the cells in the morn
ing to deliver letters, and sometimes it takes
me from 1030 until 1 in the afternoon. It is
then I can talk to tbe men in regard to relig
ious or maybe family matters. Any prisoner
has perfect liberty to speak to me. Some of
the prisoners say the doctor flies off too easily.
I never heard a word with regard to money
transactions.
McPhillamy Do you know what occurred
after speaking forne,in my cell?
Tho Chaplain Heard No Oaths.
A No, sir. When I went over to the hos
pital to stay an hour or so it might be that I
would not see the doctor at all. Of course I
saw him frequently, as far as meeting and pass
ing him goes.
McCutchcon What would you judge as to
these charges of profanity?
Milligan I can only say 1 never heard him
swear. They wouldn't know when I was going
to the hospital.
The next person sworn was Rev. E. E. Done,
hoo In reply to questions from Maharneke he
said he was a member of the Allegheny Connty
Ptison Society, and bad been connected with it
for 20 years. He had free access to the prison,
and goes wherever he wishes. He had heard
no talk whatever of Maharneke's conduct, and
never any complaint as to profanity.
Maharneke What about tbe patients' treat
ment? Donehoo I never yet received any com
plaint, and I think I enjoyed their confidence.
Kelly And corruption?
Donehoo Not until tbe publication of the
testimony taken here. I heard a little com
plaint about men being kept in their cells be
cause there was no work for them. Ordinarily
I would mention it to the warden, or maybe to
Inspector Reed, as we frequently dined to
gether. Nothing of cruelty, bnt prisoners here
have their compliints as well as in any prison.
I met Maharneke frequently.
Another officer of the prison was called for
the defense, John Eisley. He had been here
since 1SS1 in various positions, finally landing
in the hall with duties to examine all cells for
contraband articles.
Money In the Prison.
Kelly Are you ever in the hospital?
Eisley No, never, unless Imlght bring a man
over to get a tooth pulled.
piaharneke Did I ever come to the prison
Intoxicated?
A No. sir, I never knew of it I was in the
rotnnda IS months. I beard general talk about
the doctor's receiving money, but I never knew
of it personally. There was a time when there
was money in tbe prison.
Kelly-What did you do with it?
A Confiscated it,
tj. How is that?
A. I gave it to the warden or to his clerk.
They can bring money into tbe prison without
an officer knowing anything about it The
men who come in under the contract system to
instruct the prisoners how to make shoes prob
ably brought tne money in. Since the system
has been abandoned it is harder to get money
in. I know nothing of the money transactions
mentioned in regard to the Doctor.
Kelly What about betting?
A During tbe time of the shoeshop I knew
of betting on horse races.
Kelly Did you ever have a talk with Robi
son? A Yes, he told me personally the other day
he had no doubt Maharneke got the money
from McPhillamy. I heard no amount men
tioned, some saying $200 and some $300. I never
knew of it myself, however.
A Flash In the Pan.
This seemed to make things interesting once
more, and another keeper, Stewart, was sworn.
He Is a steward and looks after supplies, and
has been here 29 years, and was prison steward
14 years.
Maharneke Hate you ever heard I received
money for delicacies?
Stewart I never did.
Q. Did you not see these men get delicacies?
A. I was never upstairs and had no talkwth
patients after they left the hospital. They
never complained to me. I do not come in con
tact with the prisoners much. I never heard
complaint of money, butl heard prisoners refer
to them. Tbey would say the doctor used to
keep their eggs or'somethlng.
Kelly How many times?
A I suppose three or four.
Slagle Evidently likes eggs.
Q. What abont oaths?
A. It may be strange or startling, but Inever
heard him utter an oath. In case of extreme
sickness I take extraordinary pains to fill an
order. Sometimes I pay to get them down here
from tbe town. I keep a memorandum and
make out a bill at tbe end of tbe month. We
fenerally send a messenger boy for the food
rom town and it is cooked here.
Slagle 'Spose I were in the cell, how conld I
get extras?
Stewart Yon couldn't get it from the cell. I
never beard the Doctor use profane language,
and I said it might be remarkable, because the
evidence seems to be the other way. I hear
others speak of it, bnt I will not allow profanity
in my presence.
Mm. Mair What is the average for delicacies
for tbe hospital for, say, six months?
A Weil, some patients require a good deal.
Used tbe Battery on a Babe.
Robert Casky, an officer, was sworn. He has
a long gray beard, and entered the institution
on tbe 19th of August, 1833. He had been
deputy warden for years when there was no
pay attached. He now bad a sort of general
position, especially a guard at the female de
partment v
Maharneke When I was In prison what did
you use to bring me? Everything I wanted?
Cask'y Yes. sir, and l often go among the
patients. I never, noticed any cruelty or heard
of any complaints nor ever did I hear one oath
from him. Don't know anything about his re
ceiving money.' Never heard of his being in
toxicated. I used the battery myself Isold
times.
Maharneke Wasn't the battery used within
the year in the female department?
A I did not see it used, but I heard of it I
know he used tbe battery on a baby troubled
with paralysis. It didn't halloo.
The witness was then excused.
Prisoner Wheeler was carried In a poor,
crippled, paralyzed man, whose testimony was
Bometblng dramatic, He had been here since
September, 'Si. He often- had the battery
tried, every day. In fact
Maharneke Does it benefit you?
Wheeler Yes, in a certain way. My legs
have an aching sensation, and it knocks the
pain out of tbem, but it comes back.
Q. Did I ever treat you cruelly?
A Not the last time, bnt tbe first time. I
understood it was by Dr. Holman's orders. I
took your word for it I had the rheumatism
back of tbe neck. They said they thought I
wasn't sick. They said I was able to work, and
I must work. While walking in the line I be
gan to stagger, and Warden Wright ordered
them to put the battery to my feet
Created a Sensation.
They just put it to mo a little, hut not as he
said. Tbe doctor came to me and examined
me, and in the evening they strapped me down
and put It to me so I couldn't stand It. I said it
wasn't fair, as I was sick. Me said I mutt work.
Then to get them to take the battery off I lied. I
said 1 was playing off. Sensation. Then I was
sent hack to the block, and Wright said 1 was tbe
greatest player he ever saw, Rankin came back
and examined me and said something was wrong
with me, and I have been treated well ever
since.
Maharneke Ton wouldn't work, yon said.
Wheeler I said that, but I said to the deputy,
"I am not playing off," and in the condition 1
was I would die In a dungeon. Somebody deceived
him. Iknow.forftanklnlsal.lnd man and Wrirht
1 would not have Ill-treated me. 1 had enough to
ao to taxe care ui myseii ana aon't Know ox
others.
fccott-How long d(d they keep' the battery on
yon?
Wheeler I dunno, I was so "skeercd." They
tried to hold me, and they had to tie me. They
could hold me easily enough till they put the bat
tery to me. I had heard electricity would kill a
man. It felt as if a man grabbed me and tried to
blow me apart. I couldn't say If It was kept on
me an hour or not. When I lied to him 1 said 1
would walk without limping,. bat when I got out I
gut string halted again, and they took me back. I
couldn't help it.
McPhillamy Where was the battery applied?
Wheeler Well, all over. Frank made two or
three passes at my mouth, bathe missed it and I
got It in the head.
Then In answer to qnestions as to swearing witness
caused everybody to laugh by pointing a thumb
to Mcl'hlllamy as tbe one who swore. All through
his testimony the poor fellow showed a keen Idea
of humor that was really all the lunnler on ac
count of the fearful contrast offered by a sight of
his paralyzed, helpless form. McPhillamy was
all smiles at the c ncluslon, and thought he had
secured a good witness.
An Obliging Witness.
Keeper Fox was brought in and sworn.
Kelly Arc you willing to testify?
Fox Cheerfully anything at all to please you
folks.
In answer to qnestions he said he was a pris
oner, but Is known as a bead nurse in tbe hospi
tal, lie tended to everything inside and reported
dally to Maharneke.
Maharneke Do you remember the attempted
escape? Didn't you tell me you wanted some
bedsheets?
Fox Yes. sir.
Maharneke Did you get them?
Fox N o, sir. 1 have the key to the-cupboard.
I gave Mel hlllamy tbe key occasionally, but there
was always somebody down there with him.
Q. Did yon ever see me cruel?
A. Well, I saw two very Blck patients handled
rough In order to control them. Yes, I saw
chicken and eggs there. I never saw yon taking
money or heard of It while 1 was there, but some
time before
Q. Did you ever hear me swear?
A. Yes; yon used profane language and I did
also. I heard d n frequently. 1 couldn't
swear to other words.
Q. Did you c er see McPhillamy with a dic
tionary? A. Yes; It was about rheumatism. He showed
me a plate showing bones. 1 beard, or rather read
In the papers, you bad received money. As far as
1 know Sammy was pretty far gone, but by injec
tion, etc., we brought him too.
Scott What about the cruelty?
Fox Well, I hit a man once, but outside of that
and the battery, there was nothing else. I loaned
no sheets to anybody. I loaned the key to Mc
Phillamy. The Mysterious Sheets.
Wright Would you detect McPhillamy taking
the sheets?
Fox McPhillamy never took the sheets, I say.
Wright-What dla McPhillamy give you two silver
dollars for?
Fox lie never did. I only learned of the escape
that night when 1 was wakened and rang the
bell.
Wrlght-Where did they get thehooks? Didn't
you get them?
Fox-I don't know; I didn't get them.
Maharneke Didn't I tell you not to let that man
go to sleep In that room?
Fox Yes. you did.
Wright For tbe sake of getting at the truth of
this, I promise no punishment. Were you In any
manner or form connected with that escape?
Fox-I was not. I believe Fanning took' those
sheets on that Sunday night. I believe he took
them when be bad charge of them, taking tbem to
the laundry.
Maharneke How do you account for the saying
they were new sheets?
A. I didn't say so. I often saw the doctor and
McPhillamy talking, but not in a suspicious way,
I don't know of the peddling of whisky. I bear it
Is done, but I don't know. The most 1 had access
to was four onnces. The doctor always kept tbe
alcohol In his room under lock and key.
McPhlllamv You remember when 1 was In the
hospital the first time and what was wrong with
me?
Fox Yon took the regular fever treatment, hut
what was your disease 1 never heard.
O. Do you remember any trouble I had?
A. Yes. 1 believe with the head nurse. Then
you and the doctor had some words. It was some
thing about an ankle being burnt.
Q. You sav I got the regular fever treatment?
A. Yes, Ido. I can repeat the lormula. 1 re
member you being ordered to bed.
Q. Don't you remember I wanted liankln to
examine me before Maharneke put the soda poul
tice on?
Marriage Civilized Him.
A. Yes, Ido. I don't know who ordered you
out of the hospital. Yes, you were ordered to bed
the same day you were taken back to the block.
Maharneke used to swear frequently, but has be
come sort of civilized since he was married.
McPhillamy Did you ever see the doctor strike
a man?
Fox Yes, I have. I don't know how often.
Q. Did anyone go after the doctor the night the
man 8737 nearly died?
A. Yesiandhe cameafterwaid. I remember
I went after the doctor to trv and get him loosen
the sick man and take off the straightjacket. It
was at your suggestion. I don't know how long
be remained in bed, I only saw the battery used
once. His lips were bleeding, caused, as near as
I could understand, by his trying to get away.
Yes, he was a little roueher used than I wonld
wish. .
McPhillamy Do you remember Keck ?
A. Yes I remember him. He was taken
downstairs very early. He fainted, bnt who put
the battery on him I don't know. He had some
kind of sickness after, quinsy for one thing, and
a fever, I believe, snortly alter this.
Kelly Let us adjourn for dinner now.
Mcl'hlllamy I want to be with this man In the
Interval. .
A little discussion arose, but the fiery examina
tion continued.
Bismarck Struck Him.
McPhillamy And about this dictionary?
Fox You were the first man I ever "saw. Yes,
S.TC had the fever, but I don't know if it was
caused by the battery.
Q.-Did you not see him bleeding at the mouth?
A. -Yes, I remember now. He was unruly that
day. I believe .Bismarck struck blm.
Q. Maharneke thought I had too much to
say, eh?
A. I heard him reprimand yon.
Q. You know of Maharneke getting money?
A. -I do not. He may have got $10,000 and I
wouldn't hear It.
Q. Did you ever see milk taken and water
poured back?
A. Mow, I wonldn't say, but a colored man
was accused for It.
Q. And the medicine?
A. Yes. I saw them put water in the medicine.
Here an adjournment was made until after dlu- I
ner, while Mcrnmamy kept a careless but watch
ful eye on the young man.
THE LAST BOUND.
McPhillamy Calls One Witness a Perjurer
Some Queer Evidence by Mnhor-
neke'a Witnesses Remarkable
Close of the Sensa tlbnal
Investigation. .
Directly after dinner witness Pox was re
called and McPhillamy again began:
"Do you remember of chicken coming in
since January 1?"
Fox There has been no chicken or butter
brought into the hospital since January 1. Oh,
yes, Charley Leisenberger got some butter.
8493 got eggs this year but no one else.
This settled Fox's testimony, and it looked as
if McPhillamy wefo well pleased indeed with
Maharneke's witness, and Mrs. Mair, the only
one of tbe ladies who had stayed, and was stay
ing the whole thing out, seemed equally
pleased.
Frank Auckenbaugh was called and sworn.
He had been in tbe penitentiary over' three
years, and over a year in tbe hospital. He first
went as a patient, bnt is there now as Assistant
Hospital Steward.
Kelly-What are your duties?
Anckcnbaugh-I am under the Doctor's (Ma
harneke) orders, and assist In putting up the
medicine.
Maharneke Frank, do you remember the day
you gave me a note for McPhillamy?
A. Yes, he (Maharneke) told me about my ow
ing McPhillamy. I showed him the note, and he
told me to give It to tbe warden. I never heard
you got money from him. I did not know anything
about the attempted escape.
Maharneke What about my abusoof patients?
A. Well, never severely so. 1 don't recollect
anv bad case.
Q. Did you ever see anybody In a Jacketin the
hospital?
A. Yes, in my opinion It was necessary, as they
were supposed to be Insane. I saw the battery
used. I don't think anybody, was ever hurt. 1
saw the battery on Dutch Henry. I think hell a
dangerous man.
Q. Did he ever attempt to bite you?
A Patient in a Straightjacket.
A. Yes, he bit me once. In tbe case of little
Sammy, the first time he had typhoid fever and
pulled through all right though the doctor had
given him up. The second time I was called up to
his cell. He said be was sick and wanted to write
to his mother. He said he wasn't used right and
could not live till morning. He went to the hos
pital where be is now.
Q. Where Is he now?
A. He is now in the hospital in the straight
Jacket. Q. Do you know of any acts of cruelty?
A. Ido not. I don't know just whether it is
for punishment or medical treatment. Mo, I
never knew of you receiving money for chicken or
eggs or butter.
Q. What about my profanity?
A. I never heard any with the patients, but I
have when you were handling cranks.
Kelly Do you know of any whisky or alcohol
being sold?
Auckenbaugh No. I never did. I never sold any
whisky myself. The only time I had any use of
tbe alcohol was when you prepared a mixture.
Kelly You know of the attempted escape. Did
you see Maharneke In conversation with JlePhli
lamy In a way that aroused your suspicions?
A. No sir. I have seen them together. Nor
did 1 ever know of any money being borrowed.
The first 1 knew of the escape was when the night
nurse told me McPhillamy, Fanning and Shay
were out of the ward.
Q. Did you notice anything suspicious or bow
the sheets were obtained?
A. 1 don't know this for sure, butl heard the
nurses say the next day that when the beds were
changed Sunday morning instead of the sheets be
ing taken downstairs they were put In tbe middle
room. This is only my Idea.
Wright When did you hand me that note?
A. -Sometime In January. No, I did not owe
him any money.
McPhillamv-1 don't think it's right to make
this man liable this way.
Auckenbaugh 1 only owed him J2 and I paid htm
back the same day.
Wright What happened when you were talking
to him at the cell.
A. He wanted something to eat. Yes, be spoke
to me again about the note. I told him Wright
had the note.
Q. What else afterward?
A. 1 dld't hear an thing else after that except.
Well, shortly after that he called the Doctor to
his cell, so the Doctor said, and wanted me to sot
tie that matter up. I never saw much money in
MePhlllamy's possession. I don't know what be
came of it. No. I never knew of his betting. I
heard them talking abont the election. I can't
say Just how much they were going to bet. I never
saw McPhillamy gettlnga S20 notechanged. Well,
hearsay can't go, you know.
Habitual Profanity Severely Cruelly.
Slagle What about Kobinson's statement? Mc
Phillamy gave him his money because he was
afraid Frank would beat him?
A. Mo; I don't know anything about it.
Mrs. Mair Have you heard habitual profanity
In the hospital?
A. Well, sometimes; but not very often.
Scott What do you mean by saying patients
were not "severely cruelly" treated?
A. I saw the battery used on a man. Yes, I
meant treatment by the battery.
Scott Were these two men injured by the bat
tery? A. Not that I know of.
Scott-Who ordered it?
A. It was ordered by Maharneke.
Scott Did you ever see Maharneke take the bat
tery to nse as a punishment?
A. Well, I have seen him use it on some noisy
men who were in a lackec
Scott Did you notice any bodily injury?
A. I don't know. I never saw any. He was not
in the habit of using protane language. There has
been a big change In him for several months hack.
Mrs. Mair Mr. President. Is It customary to
apply the battery to thelnsane, either here or else
where? Dr. Itankln We don't nse It on the insane, but
only when we think they are playing oft.
Mrs. Mair-I thought there was no doubt about
Dutch Henry's insanity?
Mcl'hlllamy What was wrong with me when I
first went to the hospital?
Aukenbaugh Yes, I went to your cell and found
your head very hot.
Mcl'hlllamy You say you never knew of me
having money. Didn't you carry 120 to 77Ji?
A.-Ao, sir.
Q.--You never gambled?
A. There was no gambling between us. When
you said we should throw for money I threw the
dice In the stove. Yes, I did bet ou baseball. I
bet once with you.
Q.-Dld you not bet r50with me. Dldyoa not
bet 10 a day with several men. Did you not come
to the block every day?
A. No, no (to everything).
Captain (to Wright) ilow long did yoa have
that note before you came to me?
Wright A short time but half an hour, I
guesc
Denounced as a Perjurer.
McPhillamy Yet you swear I asked yon the
next morning not to give the note to the war
den? Kelly-What has that to do with it?
McPhlllamy-What has that to do with it! (ex
citedly). That man has perjured himself since he
sat there. He hasn't answered one single question
with the truth.
Scott (quJetly)-McPhillamy, let that go now.
Mcl'hlllamy Don't you know I always had
money ? You asked me for (10 one night and I had
no change, bnt showed you a ,100 bill. I loaned
you $2, though.
A. Yes, and I returned It, didn't I?
jjiciniiamy ies, yon aia.
Hereanother little tilt occurred between the two
that showed Frank didn't have tbe memory of
McPhllllamy.
Aukenbaugh in answer to a question said: The
battery had no efTecton a man, and they tried to
scare him. They kept blm on the bed quite a
while and said they would chloroform and cut
blm up.
Mcl'nllamy You remember Keck
Slagle We have allowed a very wide latitude,
but 1 don't think we have time.
Kellv-I feel disposed to grant all privileges pos
sible, out I think you are taking up unnecessary
time.
McPhillamy The warden brought in this bet
ting and money matter, and the witness has
proved he just told the warden a lie.
Aukenbaugh (In answer to the previous qucs-tIon)-Yes,
Keck had a sick spell after the battery
was used.
Q. Don't you remember when he came In to the
supper table very angry?
A. Ido not.
McPhillamy (wearily, to Kelly)-I give him up.
And the witness was excused, a relief, proba
bly, for be and McPhillamy were uncomfortably
close for the little fellow.
He Conldn't Soe It.
Deane was sworn, who said he was an officer of
the prison, and used to be in the hospital.
Maharneke Did you ever hear me use profane
language?
Desne-Never in the hearing of the prisoners,
Q. Did you ever see me intoxicated?
A. No. sir. I used to be in the hospital regular.
I never saw any acts of cruelty. I never heard
any complaints. I never saw anything suspicious.
I never knew of Maharneke getting money from
prisoners. I never knew of any whisky being
sold. At one time 1 thought I found alcohol in a
cell, but 1 think It turned out to be benzine.
Crone was then sworn. He had been an officer
here for four years, and was in a state of general
ignorance In regard to the charges against Mahar
neke. He told nls story of the attempted escape.
Wright Did you receive instructions the night
of the attempted escape? Were you persuaded,
hired or coaxed to stay at a certain side of the
house at a certain hour?
Crone No, 1 was at my regular post.
Kelly Was there anything In Maharneke's be
havior to lead you to think he had anything to do
with the escape?
A.-No, sir.
Inspector Heed being sworn, said, in reply to
Maharneke: "I went Into the hospital once, and
you said you had McPhillamy here, and 'I am
going to watch him. He Is a dangerons man.' "
Slagle It Is said you were spoken to of cruelty
to -Gyp?"
Reed Yes. I asked Miller how his face was
scratched, and he said it occurred in bathing, and
1 said he should not complain.
blagle As I understand It, etc.
Iteed You are wrong. That was another case
entirely. I remember how Miller laughed, and
said he could get anything he wanted, and showed
ine a Wateruury watch as evidence. I never
dreamed be meant Maharneke.
Again the Cnptala.
Warden Wright then took the seat again, and,
in answer to Maharneke, said; "Yes, sir; I had
heard complaints of cruelty at your hands In the
hospital. 1 received anonymous notes; talked
with discharged prisoners and with you; but In no
Instance did 1 find It true."
Maharneke -Did you hear whisky was sold?
right Not connected with you. Those contra
band articles do get In.
Q. Did you give orders for me to look up
moneys?
A. Yes: we made a big raid, but It was a fiasco;
but since theu you told me of some curious things
that were valuable to me. In regard todellcacles.
you simply used what you were entitled to. I
heard nothing of bribes to you until the 13'.u or
20th of January.
(J.-Dld you think I did my duty?
A. I think, except for your excitable temper,
and the fact your zeal overrun your discretion,
you were a model steward. I satisfied myself
there was no injury to anyone.
Q. Did you ever hear or cases where I did treat
them kindly?
A. Hundreds of cases; some where lives were
actually saved. I never saw him under the Influ
ence or liquor. 1 think he swears when be don't
know it, and 1 have reprimanded him several
times. 1 don't believe any man has seen acts of
cruelty In this prison.
Maharneke Did you tell me your opinion of
McPhlllamyr
Wright 1 don't remember; but 1 asked yoa to
bring the hospital list over when, no doubt, Mc
Fhilfamy's name came up many times. At least
three times you asked me to hare McPhillamy sent
to the block.- The last time was only the Friday
or Saturday before the attempted escape. 1 call
attention to the fact that no one asks me abont my
conversation with ltoblnson.
iteed-What is It?
Those Contraband Foods.
Wright ltoblnson gave me a pointer, and I sent
several officers and satisfied myself a good deal
of money had been floating around, when, on the
SCth of January, 1 heard of the bribery. I did not
find out who did and do take contraband letters
from the place. I know no more about bribery
and corruption than Kelly does; but the battery
has been used three times more than 1 knew about.
This was entirely at Dr. ltankin's discretion, and
1 was not expected to know
Tbe witness was then excused.
Deputy Warden McKean was recalled, and re
peated his former testimony with very little of In
terest produced. Judging from what he had seen
in other prisons, this man was more free from pro
fanltv than any.
Mjharneke I wish Mrs. Mair to go on thestand.
(The lady had already been sworn.)--Previous to
this Investigation had yoa talked to Miller?
Mrs. Mair No, sir.
Miharneke Did you carry news or letters out?
Wright-That Is Irrelevant.
Scott Mrs. Mair, you have a right to answer, if
you wish.
Mrs. Malr-I wlsn you would allow me to aa-

TAKE THE HINT.
Whene'er an anxious group is seen
Around some monthly magazine
Or paper that is daily whirled
To every quarter of the world,
And merry peals of laughter rise
As this or that attracts the eyes,
The smiling crowd, you may depend,
Above some illustrations bend
That advertise the strength and scope
And purity of Ivory Soap.
A WORD OF WARNING.
-There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the ' Ivory' ; "
they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of
the genuine. Ask for " Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.
Convrteht ISSfi. bv P-nrir h Gamble.
swer that.
Scott Mo need to: you can go where yoa please
and do what yoa please.
"I have nothing more," said Maharnele, and
the defense then rested, and Mcrblllamy was
asked if he bad any witnesses In rebuttal. He bad
one: but C. tt. Christy, Esq., asked a moment's
conversation with him before he called his wit
ness. This was granted, and he advised him not
to caU witnesses In rebuttal.
Mr. Christy 1 have advised the witness to close
bis ease at this point and he has agreed.
The orosecutor and accused then each declined
to make a statement, and the case was given to the
board as It stood to And a verdict for or against
the defendant.
It Cansed Surprise.
A lively bnzz then ensned, as every man tnrned
to his neighbor and asked wby Christy bad so sud
denly and effectually closed the ca6e, when it was
expected It might run away Into the morning, and
It was then but 10 o'clock. Mr. Christy, however,
was extremely non-committal In regard to his un
expected advice. "I have a reason hack or an
this, and a good reason, too, "said he; "and the
reason will be known In good time."
McPhillamy. the careless but most certainly
clever prosecutor, leaned comfortably back in his
chair, and seemed to be the least concerned as to
the anticipated result. "On the whole, " said he,
"1 am satisfied with the way affairs have been
bandied, though I do complain about how I was
treated in a fewpolnts."
Maharneke was also asked in regard to his opin
ion. He felt satisfied, and said he was as Innocent
nf the chareea as a babe. He referred in a tender
'way to tho anxiety of his young wife at his
trouuies. fie cxpreseeu liie uuuc iu.t uenvum
be cleared, and said he could actually dance for
Joy ir he knew the decision would be in his favor.
Mrs. -Mair was very sorry be had not been al
lowed to answer the doctor's question, and say
that she had never taken out of the prison any
correspondence relating to the case. However,
the consistent, sincere lady said she would be
satisfied ir the public knew this, and would not
trouble her mind as to Maharneke's opinion.
One View of It.
A conversation was overheard between Messrs.
Christy and Wright that was decidedly Interest
ing. The warden asked Mr. Christy ir he (the
warden) bad acquitted himself well in his last
testimony, and Christy replied:
"Warden, it was the most foolish thing yoa
coafd have done, to put yourself on the stand ami
say what you did, without any questions being
asked."
Mr. Christy refused to explain why it was a
mistake, and refused to give an opinion upon tbe
whole trial at all, from a legal standpoint.
Thus the case was closed: It is in the hands of
the Hoard of Inspectors alone, and, attersome
delay, tbe public will know the fate of the man
who certainly made a most remarkable right for a
small salaried position some t-V) a month.
Thus Is the matter ended for the present. Ev-
