Despite the Fact That the Appropria tions Have Eun Out, the House Ad journs Over Sunday No Provisions Made for Current Expenses The Tom Watson Farce Cold Tea Patrons Standing: by One Another Contra dictory Testimony Ruled Out by the Investigators No Settlement of the "World's Fair Differences Tetiin Sight. rrao-u A ETArr correspondent.! Washington, July 30. After an hour or so of the usual filibustering, now grown eo tiresome that no one can think of it with patience, the House adjourned at about 1 o'clock to-day upon the announcement by Mr. Reilly, ofTennsylvania, of the death of Congressman Craig, at Claysvillc, "Wash ington county. Mr. Eeilly announced the death verbally, in a few nicely-chosen words, and then sent to the clerk's desk the usual resolutions of regret and for adjourn ment aVays presented upon the death of a member. It is probably almost without precedent that objection should be made to such reso lutions, but Mr. Thomas K. Iteed, of Maine, is an iconoclast to whom precedent is of little or no importance, and Mr. Beed promptly protested against adjournment at a time when the business of the House and tlic interests of the country demand prompt legislation. Kepl Turned Down by Circumstances. Precedent and a large Democratic major ity were stronger than Mr. Heed. The Hoube voted in sympathy with Mr. Eeilly, and in the face of the feet that all appropri ations usually made by the sundry civil bill will cease to operate this evening, and after that there will be no money available for the departments and individuals affected by the bill, not even the lighthouses or the life-saving service, until the old appropria tions are again extended or until the sundry civil bill, now under consideration, is passed. The filibustering minority, engaged in the revolutionary proceeding of obstructing all legislation, seemed to have no concern for this extraordinary condition of affairs, but voted for adjournment with a cheerfulness which suggested a feeling of profoind6atis faction that the death of Mr. Craig had In terfered to give them a halt holiday and tare them from the tiresome filibustering of at least one afternoon. No Settlement Is In Stent No compromise of the differences be tween the friends and the opponents of the World's Fair appropriation is yet in sight. The obstructing minority swears to an un alterable determination to continue the fight indefinitely. The favorable majority, with the patient and determined Senate at its back, though anxious to end the farce, declare now that they will not be beaten by the filibusterers. Every one expects a break in the ranks of the minority to come soon, but every one, even themselves, expected the break to come yesterday, and yet to-day, with a prompt and grateful adjournment under grave conditions, which are without prece dent, the obstruction is more dogged than ever, and there seems to be no attempt making toward a com promise or toward any act which will end this anomalous situation. The country and Congressional majority must simply await the pleasure of a few men who are the recognized demagogues of the House, and which, unfortunately, have in leading strings a large number of sincerer men than themselves, but not so self-asserting. The Greatest Farce on Record. Never was there a greater farce performed in Congress than that of the investigation into tbe drunkenness of members as charged in the campaign text-book compiled and edited by Eepresentative Tom Watson, of Georgia. Two protracted sessions of the Investigating Committee were held to-day, and the net result is that nearly every wit ness, both for the prosecution and defense, agreed that they had seen members on the floor in a condition of intoxication. The witnesses for the prosecution had seen but one or two instances, however, and those of a mild type, while Mr. Wat son's witnesses were able to locate four, and they in very bad condition.- The truth of the whole matter is that Mr. Watson wrote as he did in his book lor partisan effect, knowing that back of his sweeping statements there was just enough fact to bear him out, but not enough to put any great disgrace on the House of Representa tive. The present Congress has been a remark ably temperate body. The last Congress was still more marked in this respect. Both are exceptions, for it rarely happens that there are not iound in both Senate and House members who at some time during the session, and usually very otten, make fools of themselves in their respective chambers; and often these have beeD among the most brilliant and able and experienced of the two bodies. Sobriety to a Wonderful Degree. The wonder is that the persons so re marked are so few, when it is remembered that there are upward of 400 members and that the temptations to drink iu Washing ton are greater than in any other place in the country. The leis'urely, the political, the social features of Washington life are peculiar to the place. The mental strain upon all sorts of officials and upon all with whom they come in contact is severe while upon duty, and stimulation and conviviality are the natural resort when the moment of relaxation comes. Yet despite these conditions, so naturally pro ductive of excess in Varying degree, there has been a steady decrease ot intemperance during the years in which I have been familiar with the Capitol affairs. It is only a few years since a sight session, and especially an all-night session, near the close of a session was a signal for a general "drunk." Members reeled about tbe aisles, and at times there would be a fusillade ot books and documents all over the balk An Interregnum ot Decorous Conduct, During the last three or four years, even on such occasions, the House has been inainly.decorous that is, there was noth ing more undignified than the usual con fusion due simply to the lack oi a sense of individual responsibility lor the decorum and dignity of the body. More disgraceful by far than any exhibi tion of intoxication of members on the floor of either chamber is the fact that winei and liquor, spirituous and malt, ot all kinds, are sold openly in both the Senate and the House restaurants. Not only the member who drinks, but the member who makes a vaunt and virtue of his temperance, is re sponsible lor this. A few years ago, when drunkenness on the floor of the two chambers was far more common than now, the two Honses, in a virtuous spasm, declared against the sale of liquor at the restaurants. But the tip was privately given to the proprietor, and "cold tea" was soon a beverage of national renown. All sorts of stimulants were brought to the customer in a tea cup with saucer. Everybody knew what was being drunk, but the fiction was kept up for a year or two, until the moral sense of the two Houses lapsed into its former comatose condition. An End to Concealment. For upward of three years there has been no concealment. The unlicensed bars of the two restaurants run at full blast. Representatives by the dozen, and politi cians and other visitors by the hundreds may be seen drinking openly every day. At the Senate they do things somewhat better than the House. There a spacious private room, sacred to Senators and their guests, conceals the convivial proceedings, and special luncheons, for "private par ties," are served in committee rooms, be hind locked doors, at the behest of mem bers of the committee to which the room is alio ted. Were members of the House to claim similar indulgence the country would ring with the. scandal, and the member so offending would be defeated at the next election. Daily keepers of restaurant or saloon in the city are arrested for some infraction ot the liquor laws. They have paid their license and may have sinned inadverently. Tbe keepers of the House and Senate res taurants get extensive suite of rooms, cool cellars, ranges and other machinery, rent free. They pay no license for the sale of beverages. They trample upon every jot and title of the liquor laws with impunity. Some of Mr. Watson's Charge. Mr. Watson to-day, through his counsel, Jerry Simpson, made an earnest endeavor to put in evidence the facts in regard to these restaurants, but was unanimously overruled by the committee, who declared that they must confine themselves to the scope of" the charges, which were that drunken members reeled about the aisles and drunken speakers grew so confused, that one, at least, had to ask tbe Speaker, "Where was I at?" But if Mr. Watson's charge was somewhat exaggerated, and if tbe investigation is far cical, the affair will serve to call attention anew to the abuse of tbe unlicensed bars in the Capitol building of the Government of the people of the United States, and it is safe to say that after this episode, when a mem ber gets drunk he will either remain an ay from the Capitol or confine himself to the inviting sofas of the cloak rooms, where one witness to-day swore he saw a member lying "dead drank." Cutting BemarKS In the Senate. A peculiar .occurrence in the Senate this week has not, it seems to me, excited the attention it deserves. It was on Wednes day, when Senator Blackburn surprised tbe whole Senate by calling up, in committee of the whole, a bill to authorize the Hew Tork and New Jersey Bridge Companies to construot a bridge across the Hudson river, between New York and Jersey City. Senator Cul lom and Senator Gorman strenuously ob jected to its consideration, because Senator Frye, to whose committee the bill hai been referred, was not present, and because he had, previous to 'his departure for home, urged with emphasis that the bill should not be considered in his absence. Senator Hiscock had this and another rea son for his opposition to consideration. He admitted that as another company had been granted the privilege of building a bridge between New York and Jersey, at another place, he did not thinkit right to extend the privilege to any other corporation, as two bridges would not pay which will strike most people as an extraordinary reason to be entertained by a legislator. Senator Blackbnrn explained that the bill was introduced by him, by request of Senator Hill, of New York, and was called np for consideration at his request This was news to Hiscock, and he said so. "Neither ot the Senators from New Jersey is here," pursued Hiscock, "and I amauthorized to say of one that he is op posed to this bill." trnco Tilings Always Happening. "Will the Senator allow me to sav, just there," retorted Blackburn, "that I have the authority ot the other Senator from New Jersey to say that he is warmly in favor ot it?" Then followed some cutting remarks from both Senators in regard to the invasion of each other's districts and sticking their noses into business that did not immediately concern tbem. It will strike the public as decidedly strange that a Senator from Kentucky should call up such a bill relating to New York and New Jersey; that one Senator from New York and one Senator from New Jersey should favor one corporation, and the other Senator from New York and the other Senator from New Jersey should favor the other corporation, and "that so many Senators should so suddenly exhibit such warm feeling on the subject. But strange things are always liable to happen in the Senate. Among the incorporators of the company favored by Mr., Hiscock are John King McLanahan, F. W. Eoebling and Gustav LindenthaL A Dint With an Awtnlgtlng. In the Senate, to-day, Mr. Paddock at tempted to have passed a bill incorporating a body of gentlemen who wish to make ex periments in horticulture, forestry, etc. The bill was savagely attacked by Senator Saun ders, who said that the incorporation of such bodies was a means by which thev inuuceu ravesimenis in stock, took the profits if successful, and swindled their creditors if unsuccessful. Senator Paddock quietly reminded Mr. Saunders that he (Saunders) hid never been known to object to bills incorporating any sort of coraptuy, "when there was game ahead," and so on. It is to be hoped that the objection made to-day by Mr. Reed to an adjournment on account of the death of a member may be the entering wedge that will start the breaking up of the funeral foolishness, a worse than foolisbness, which has been for lone years a growing abuse in Congress. Nothing can be more nauseating to a sensible person than the hypocritical snivel that runs through laudatory funeral orations over the . most ordinary and often over decidedly un savory Congressmen when kindly nature takes them to herself. VI hat a Member Death Means. A death of a member means a loss of a day to Congress, one or both houses, ot the time of death. It .means an expensive fun eral, attended by members and Senators who olten know nothiug and oltcner care nothing" about the dead. It means a lot of J wretched stufi which takes the time of Con gress and the country for delivery, and which lumber the pages of the Record. It is a piece of hollow and vulgar ostenta tion all through, even in the case of the death of a really great man, whose deeds should speak for him. The day will come when the good sense of the country will compel Congress to cease these vulgar funeral displays and repress the movement now at its height to make a present of $5,000 or the salary of a member for a year to the wife and children of a deceased member. "This great Democratic House," said a Democrat, complainingly, to me, to-day, "has turned out one Republican and seated one Democrat among all the contestants, and that Democrat is dead." This is very nearly but not quite the lact. Rock well, Democrat, of New York, was re tained in his seat when all of tbe Elections Committee except two are against him, and this is certainly almost equivalent to turn ing out a Republican and seating a Demo crat.

Haverhill, Mass., July 30. .Serial. Evidence has been discovered which tends to show that the mysterious deaths at the Cable House, Salisbury Beech, more than a week ago, were caused by the willfulact of a young woman, who placed poison in the food in order to kill Daniel McCarthy, an employe of the hotel. Four other lives were sacrificed in order to insure the death of the intended victim. An interesting love story is hinted at, but the evidence in not conolusive enough to warrant an arrest or even the publication of the name of the suspected person. It is said that there was a lovers' quarrel and then the young man received a letter an nouncing tbe death of the young lady. Just before the trouble at the Cable House, which resulted in the deaths of so many people and the serious illness of a great manv more, this young woman whose death had been announced was seen in McCarthy's room, so it is claimed, by another woman who knew her intimately. The unmistakable symptoms of poisoning in connection with the deaths ot the Cable House guests, and the fact that the occu pants of the table at which McCarthy was served were the only one who were taken sick,coupled with the lovers' quarrel, the reported death of the young lady and her subsequent appearance in the flesn in the room ot her former lover, examining the contents of his trunk all these cir cumstances have given the police material to work upon which may develop a most sensational story of crime. FOLGEE STANDS BY BETHLEHEM. He Declares Its Armor Plato the Finest Ever Mads In the Wor d. South Bethlehem, Pa., July 30. Speriai." A test of the armor plate made at the works of the Bethlehem Iron Com pany was made this morning at the com pany's proving grounds at Redington. The' results attained surpass those reached at any test ever made, either of foreign plate or of domestic plate manu fa ctured. The test was witnessed by all of the Government officials stationed here, and by Commodore Folger, Washington, Chief ot the Ordnance Bureau, and by H. A. Harvey, Jr., son of the inventor of the Harvey, process. r The plate tested war of 10 Inch nickel steel, the front face of which had been treated by the Harvey process. The plate was 6 by 8 feet, and weighed 9J4 tons. Five 8-inch shots were fired at it, at a striking velocity of 1,700 feet per second. The projectiles weighed 250 pounds each. They were of the Holtzer French make, conceded to be the best in the world. Each charge of powder weighed 81 J pounds. The penetration of the plate was about three inches in the case ot all five projectiles. There were no cracks made in the plate from the point of impact Each projectile was shattered into pieces, many of the pieces being no larger than a marble and the largest the size of an apple. The shots were fired at intervals of about 20 minutes. Superintendent Fritz watched the test with great interest, and was evi dently greatly pleased. Commodore Fol ger said: "This test of armor plate shows it to be the best ever attained in the world." CARKIED IHXO SIOBM CLOUDS. A Spectator at a Balloon Ascsnslon Jerked to the Sky by Bis Foot. Worcester, MASS., July 30. Special Crowds who came to see Professor Blondie Willies' balloon ascensions last night wit nessed a sight they will not soon forget. A heavy thunder storm came up and the balloon escaped from the crowd trying to hold it. One' luckless spectator, Benjamin Long, was caught by the right foot in a loop of the anchor rope and car ried heavenwards head down. The balloon shot upward. Dong was swayed to and fro in his frantic endeavors to get into the parachute. Two thousand waited with baited breath to see the un lucky man brained on a honse-chimney or dashed to death on the ground. From the very first Dong made efforts to save himself. His poor old mother was in the crowd aud was almost paralyzed with horror as she saw her son hanging bv his foot. Far up in the gloom and dark ness flashes of lightning revealed his position in the air and just when death seemed certain from collision with the Y. M. C A. boathouse he caught by chance the cutoff rope of the parachute and dropped like a shot for CO feet. Then the big um brella filled and he landed safely. WILL BE 0DT IN A WEEK. Chairman Frick Wants to Return to His Office at Onee. Chairman H. C Frick is expected to be almost completely recovered in another week. The wounds inflicted by the An archist are healing rapidly and Mr. Frick now only experiences a feeling of stiffness about his shoulder. Yesterday he declared he would be down at his office on Monday, but his physicians say they will not permit it. Ever since the first afternoon his pulse temperature and respiration have been natural. Even tbongh lie is not permitted to leave his home he still has his chiefs call to see him and directs all their movements. THE MILITIA GUARDING HIM.

The cholera has to day mado Its appearance in two localities in Galicia, an J, worse still, nine oases of tbe disease are reported through Pressburg, Hungary, as having occurred at Dimszar Babely, 25 miles from that populous center. The outbreak in Austrian Galicia is, mean time, limited to the frontier villages of Molcszowa and Szcrakowa, The persons attacked have been isolated. The Berlin authorities have telegraphed to Vienna, asking for full particulars ot the outbreak and urging the Austrian Govern ment to keep them apprised of the progress of the disease. Regarding tbe Pressburg cases, Austrian medical men differ, some declaring that the patients are suffering merely from cholerine, while others insist that the disease is genuine Asiatic cholera. There is no doubt, however, that Galician patients have genuine cholera, the disease having been imported from Russia. A dis patch frem Count von Taafe, the Austrian Prime Minister, to the Governor of Galicia, warns the latter that the epidemic can not fail to cros the frontier, as many of the Gallcians are engaged in smuggling; and that by this means the cholera is cer tain to be introduced into the country. All Central Eurnpo Is Threatenotf. Count "Von Taafe odds that an outbreak of the disease in Calicia would involve tbe spread of the epidemio throughout Central Europe, and requests the Governor to adopt the most stringent measures to prevent the spread of the disease; to urge State officials to greater energy; to secure all the volun tary help he can from the educated classes, and to more vigorously enforce the laws in dealing with the ignorant peasants, most ot whom are on a level with the peasants of Russia, as far as uncleanliness and supersti tion arc concerned. The newB from Galicia does not excite alarm here, but the Pressburg advices have given the authorities a momentary shock. The proximity of Vienna and the likeli hood -that the disease, should it become epidemic, will spread along the Danube, make the news of serious import The Berlin physicians now apprehend an early outbreak of cholera in Silesia and Southern Germany. The Polish-Galician lrontlerWvIU Je.sirictly cordoitJ.ind vhe cases along tberaepiflould any occur, can be- readily isolated: but it will be difficult to repress the epidemio onee it appeal's along the upper reaches of the Danube. lhe Disease Appears In Breslan. Whilo making inquiries in official quar ters this evening regarding the cholera in Austria, the representative of the Asso ciated Press learned that telegrams had been received from Breslau announcing an outbreak of the disease there, three cases having been reported to the authorities and removed to tbe hospitals, where they were placed in special cholera wards. The phy sicians cannot yet definitely pronounce whether the disease from which the patients are suffering is cholerine or Asiatic cholera, but the first diagnosis' led them to suppose it is the latter. Further instructions were telegraphed to-night to the officials' through out the frontier Provinces, insisting upon the urgency of tbe adoption of sanitary measures. Prince Bismarck, accompanied by Princess Bismarck and Count and Countess Herbert Bismarck, left Kissengen this afternoon for Weimar. A host of visitors bad gathered at the railway station to bid the ex-Chancellor farewell. The party will visit Jena and will proceed thence to Varzin unless the Prince's steadfast adherent, Count von Soln Sonnersmark, desires to entertain him. His admirers in Berlin still hope that the Prince will accept their invitation to meet a circle of friends in the German capital. Bh Visit Would Stir Up tbe Animals. Should the ex-Chancellor give way to these solicitations and visit Berlin, com plications are sure to arise, as demonstra tions would certainly be made that would wound Emperor William's pride. At Jena great preparations have been made for Prince Bismarck's reception. He will be met at Weimar by a deputation of his sup porters, who will escort htm to Jena, where representatives of the city and the Univer sity will deliver addresses of welcome. To night beacons are blazing from the heights around the town, and tbe students are hold ing a torchlight procession. To-morrow the Prince will receive several deputations, to whom it is expected he will make an im portant speech. In court circles it is reported that Chan cellor von Caprivi had a bad time with Em peror William on the latter's return from his whaling trip. The Emperor, it is said, censured the Chancellor tor his injudicious handling of the Bismarck controversy, and blamed him for the manner in which he had treated the International Exhibition matter. Similar rumors are circulating about tbe Chancellerie and are credited by tbe officials there, and the early advent of Count von Euleuberg, the President ot the Pmssian Ministry, is now held to be probable. The Press Clamors for Caprivi' Fall. Most of the Berlin papers attribute the threatened failure ot the proposed interna tional exhibition to the Chancellor's limp and hesitating action. The Vossltche Zeitung (Liberal) says the public look in vain for Bismarck's bold energy in Caprivi. The Tageblatt holds that the question of holding or not holding tbe exhibition has assumed a political, rather than an industrial nature. "Germany," the Tageblatt adds, "must step in before France or admit that she is unable to compete with France industrially." The Cologne Gazette, the Deutsche WoehenUatt and the Post cononr in advising the dismissal of the Chancellor. Emperor William, on board the imDerial vacht Kaiser Adler, accompanied by the ironclad Beowulf, under command of Prince Henry of Prussia, sailed from Wilhelms haven for Cowes this afternoon. The Em peror looks embrowned and hardy. He was very much benefited by his northern trip. His Majesty favors the project for a Woild's Fair In Berlin, although he knows that the Governments of Saxony and Baden are adverse to it, and that it Is opposed to the whole agrarian party. His final de cision in the matter will not be taken until answers shall have been 'received from all the Federal States. Tit Kaiser to Visit England Again.

Prof. Koch expresses implicit confidence that Mr. Bailey will be completely cured. After three weeks treatment the patient looks better and has trained considerable flesh. His voice, too, which, when he placed him self in Prof. Koch's bands was almost en tirely gone, has become distinct and strong. The trial at Cleves, ot Wolf Buschoff, the Hebrew accused of having murdered a boy for sacrificial purposes, of which charge the prisoner was acquitted, has led to the prose cution for perjury of a number of the wit nesses who, it is alleged, gave false evi dence in the trial in their eogerness to prove Buschoff guilty.

Young Alfonso Distributes Charity at San Sebastian "With a Free Hand. IBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH. London", July 30. His Majesty King Alfonso, XILL, has arrived at San Sebas tian, on his annual visit to the seaside, which he loves above all things. Every morning, between 9 and 10, a big crowd of visitors and townspeople assemble on the esplanade . to see the little King, who is no longer carried or driven to the baths, but walks proudly by the side of his mother or governess. He is almost hail fellow well met to all the beggars in the town, and to see him distributing his alms is said to be a sight worth traveling all the way to San Sebastian to witness. The little monarch can be very dignified at times, but at Son Sebastian he lets him self loose. Unlike ordinary little boys of his age, Alfonso has not been worried with school books, Queen Christina adhering steadfastly to the plan she formed when her child was a weakly infant, to strengthen his body before developing his mind.

A Pretty Yonng Lady Fatally Struck by Lightning in New Jersey. NO TIME TO DON HER CLOTHES, For She "Was Quickly Taken Cffin Spite of Her Rubber Boots. A SINGULAR FEEAK OF ELECTRICITY SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH Stirling, If. J., July 30. Augusta Eigan, a pretty 19-year-old girl, was struck by lightning here yesterday and instantly killed. She had been bathing in the Pai salc river, and when the storm broko at 4 o'clock she came out of the water and went under a small white birch tree near the river to dress. Her friend, Annie Baldwin, was Btandinz under an umbrella near her when the bolt of lightning struck the tree and killed her. Miss Ryan had not bad time to put on any of her clothes; she only wore a pair of rubber boots to protect her feet in going from the water to the. place where her clothes were. She never moved after the lightning strucklhelree. The upper port of her body turned a dark blue color, and the rubber boot on her left foot was cut down the side as it by a knife. Killed V bile at Her Uatli. Yesterday the heat was intense. The thermometers registered from 100 to 105 degrees of beat, and the weather sharks predicted a heavy thunder storm. It was nearly 4 o'clock before there was any sign of an approaching shower, and this was the time that Miss Ryan selected to go bathing. Miss Annie Baldwin, of Gloucester City, a ?irl abont Gnssie's age, came to visit her ast Saturday and accompanied her yester day afternoon to the bathing pool in the Passaic The pool is a favorite place for young women and is back of John Mc Grath's farm house. Gussle took off her clothes under the white birch on the bank and plunged into tbe river. For ten minutes she remained in the water, while her friend stood on the hank and watched her. The air suddenly became cooler and there was a far-off peal of thunder, followed in a few minutes by large drops of rain. Annie put up her um brella and called to Gussie to come out of the water at once and get dressed. As the girl left tbe water Annie said to her: "There is going to be lightning, Gussie, and it's dangerous to stand under that tree." Sh3 Cou'dn't Choose Her Fat". "If I am to be struck," responded Gussie, "I might as well be struck here as any where." She slipped her feet into the pair of rubber boots that were waiting tor her on the bank, and ran up to the tree under neath which her clothes were lying. Gussie had just reached the white birch when a bolt 'of lightning shot down toward the birch. Annie says there was an explosion and a strong smell of sulphur. Her um brella was wrenched from her hands, and for a moment she was stunned. She said: "The air seemed to be filled with smoke. When I recovered myself I looked tor Gussie. She was flat on the ground, and I knew she was dead. The white birch was split and the bank was torn from it," It is probable that Gussie was leaning on the tree at the time. Near her left heel, as she fell, there was a hole several inches in diameter in the ground. Her cIothe, which had been lying on the ground beside her, were uninjured. The storm was u furi ous one for the hour which it lasted. The body was removed to the farm house ot her grandfather.

The first was conspiracy and the other accessory to, the attempted mur der of H. C. frick before and after tha fact. A half hundred people were yesterday attracted to the hearing of Bauer andKnold before Judge Gripp at Central station. The report that these men had aided in the attempted murder of Mr. Frick attracted the crowd. All looked for something startling to be brought out in tbe testimony. The evidence adduced, with a few exceptions, revealed little that was not already known. Several supposed anarchists were interested listeners at the hearing, and after it had been completed sat down in a corner of the room and opened a conversation with Paul Eckert, a witness for the Commonwealth and an Anarchist sympathizer. Paul Eckert's Testimony. The interest of the Commonwealth waj looked after by Superintendent O'Mara. Joseph Freidman defended Bauer and Knold. Paul Eckett was the first witness called. He lives at No. 5 Cherry street Allegheny. Knold lived in the sama house. Eckert said Berkman lived with him from July 14 to July 22. In answer to Magistrate Gripp' questions the witness said that he knew both defendants, having seen them at his house. When Berkman came he said that he was a printer and was looking for work. The witness ad mitted that there was ahandpress at his homo owned by the International Workingmen'a Association, and upon which Anarchist cir culars were printed. The circulars dis tributed at Homestead were printed on the same prest This press was operated by tha members ot the association and the witness had often operated it himself. The witness saw Bauer at the house three, or four times and saw him talking to Berkman. Bauer and Berkman talked on different subjects; among others on the Homestead strike. On cross-ex. mination by Mr. Freidman, Eckert said tha. Bercman had jdept at tha house, bnt he could not teliwnaT"ilir-iT-ocring thedayas'tfcfr'i&frSss was a team ster" and worked during tbe day. Of the defendants Knold was a locksmith and Bauer was aent for labor literature. Dnrintr tbe time that Berkman was at the witness' house Knold was working, except the day that Berkman said that he was going awav: this was the Friday before the shooting. Berkman Said He Was Going to Chicago. Berkman left the house about 7:30 A. ae on that day, and told them that he was go- ing to Chicago. The witness did not see , Berkman alter that, and he did not know ' whether Berkman had ever tried during his stay in this city to get work at any of tha newspaper offices. E. W. Hill, whose place of business is opposite Mr. Frick's office on Fifth avenue, testified he had seen Berkman since his arrest, but was not positive as to having seen him before the snooting. Shortly after the shooting of Mr. Frick the witness said his attention was attracted to a man on Fifth arenue who was rushing about and pointing at tbe window in Ms. Frick's office. This man was tall and stout with flowing black mustache, aud he wore a straw hat and a light coat. The man seemed to be more interested than others on the street, and the witness thought he was an employe of Mr. Frick's office from tbe in terest he was taking in the shooting. Mr. Hill could not swear positively as. to Bauer being the man. Bauer here put on a light grey coat, and after looking very closely the witness said that he thought the coat worn by the man be saw was of a darker shade and of heavier material.

On the Saturday preceding the shooting Berkman came to Taylor & Dean's store, on Market street, where .Knold was working, and about 5 o'clock they started up Fifth avenue. The witness asked Knold when he showed Berkman Mr. Frick's office, and the prisoner replied, "I showed him," and then stopped abruptly and said that he showed him the Hussey building, and that, passing up Fifth avenue, he pointed out the other newspaper offices. Knold said that they then went home, and he was not out with Berkman again until the day before the shooting, when he left him at the Union depot, Berkman saying that he was going to Chicago.
