HIS MOTflER MOST DETERMINED
That the Thysicians TVho Held the Jutopsy
Shall Stand Trial.
BEE BOX'S SCREAMS UNDER TIIE SAW
fsrraAL telegram to the urerATCK.i
Kew Yokk June i The case of IDrs.
Frank Ferguson, John A. Irwin and Irwin
HjHancc, jointly indicted on a charge of
illegal dissection, was on the trial calendar
Tart 3, of the General Sessions to-dav,
hut was adjourned until June 28, owing to
the absence irom the city of one of the de
fendants, who are each under 51,500 bail for
trial.
lany Eensational developments are
looted for when the case is finally brought
to trial, owing to the fact that the victim
of the alleged illegal operation was Wash
ington Irving Bishop, the mind reader, who
died at the Lamb's Club, on May 13, 1889,
under unusual circumstance:, and also to
the fact that his mother claims that her son
was only in a trance when the autopsy was
performed. Xelther District 'Attorney
2f icoll nor Lawyer John 3L Bowers, coun
sel for Ferguson, have any explanation to
give why this is the first" time that any
terious effort has been made to bring the
three physicians to trial, although it is
three years since they were indicted.
I'o&tponcd on Acconnt ot ToUtlcs.
Lawyer Bowers obtained an adjournment
Until June 28 upon the plea that notice of
tne trial was not served upon him until
yesterday, and that his client is at present
in Minneapolis attending the Republican
convection. The other defendants are rep
resented by kelson "Waterbury, Jr., and
H IL Moeran.
"The defendant's counsel desired to have
the trial put off until September," said Dis
trict Attorney Nicoll to-day, "but I would
not consent to this, as I am determined to
liave the cae disposed of during the present
terra. There is no particular reason why
the case has remained untried so long, except
that it is one of the old bail cases left over
from District Attorney Fellows' term, being
only one of a great number."
Mr. Xicoll said that the offense is only a
misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of 5500
or one year's imprisonment, or both. He is
not aware of anv evidence to show that Mr.
Bishop was alive when the doctors began
the autopsy, but that point will be gone
into fully at the trial. He is confident,
however, that the physicians disobeyed the
law which torbids an autopsy by any other
than a coroner's physician, except the con
sent of the nearest relative of the deceased
has been obtained.
Died While In a Trancs.
"Washington Irving Bishop went to the
Lamb's Club on the night of May 12, 1889,
upon the invitation ot Henry Dixey and
Sidney Drew, to give an exhibition of hlg
mind reading. "While doing so he fell into
a traucc, lrom which he" could not be
awakened by ordinary means. Dr. Irwin
was called in to attend him, and, after
several hours, Mr. Bishop partially re
covered his senses, but again went into a
trance, and at noon on May 13 was declared
dead bv Dr. Irwin and other physicians.
His body was at once removed to Hawks
undertaking rooms on Sixth avenue, where
an autopsy was perlormed by Dr. Ferguson,
with Drs. Irwin and Hance as his assis
tants. At the Coroner's inquest the physicians
were declared innocent of causing th"e man's
death, despite his mother's claim that her
son was still alive when the autopsy was
performed. A aonth later they were in
dicted on a charge of illegal dissection, and
Judce Cowing held them under 51,500 bail
lor trial.
Mrs. Bishop was in the room ot Assistant
" trict Attorney "Weeks this morning in
pectatiou that the trial would go on to
day. She was dressed in deep mourning,
and she told a sad story of her three years'
fight to have the doctors tried for what she
maintained was the murder of her son.
Mr. Bishop' Mother's Story.
"I have come here hundreds of times to
see when the trial would take place," said
Mrs. Bishop, "but I was always put off with
one excuse or another. It is not Mr.
Kicoll's fault, as the case should ha e been
disposed of belore he took charge. I am
satisfied that he w ill see that justice is done.
If these men only fear conviction of a mis
demeanor, why have they so persistently
evaded trial? I have a witness who heard
my boy cry out, 'Mother, help,' as the sur
geons' saw entered his brain. I can get
this witness unless he has been spirited
away. In my son's clothing s the time
was a paper directing that no autopsy should
be held, as he feared that just such a mis
take should be made as did occur. If I can
not punish them for the crime, I shall at
least see that they are punished for the of
fense which they cannot deny."
Dr. Irwin, when seen to-day, said he had
nothing to say about the case, as he is at
tending to his business, and is conscious
that he did nothing more than his duty in
his connection with Mr. Bishop's illness
and death.
AsTirsiATiC troubles, pleurisy pains and
inflamed throats are overcome and healed by
Dr. D.Jayne's Expectorant for 50 vears an

Extraordinary Statement.
The statement made by the Philadelphia
Company, in dctense to a suit brought
against them, said: In all probability tlio
natural pas supply would be exhausted in
three years. This should not letard tho
people from buying natural gas appliances.
If this statement was made on actual knowl
edge It would pay you to investigate
the workings of the Jewett Gas Range
and become posted as to its merits
nnd to its economy in the use of
this most valued fuel. If the supply would
only last three years you would be ahead,
for the Jewett ltange would save the price
of itself in that time. And you would have
all the pleasure of usinjr eas during that
period. Call and see the Jewett in actual
operation at the furnace, ranjre and stove
