Witnesses Testify! hut They Thourjht
Anna Dickinson Insane.
THEY DESCRIBE HER ACTIONS
Mr. li(iglostoa Was Very Firm in His
ltcliof Thut Miss Anna Acted I.Ike an
Insano Person Mrs, Jcinliuu Grif
fiths Was of the Same Opinion.
The same public Interest Is still dis
played In the famous Anna K. Dickin
son suit before Judge Acheaon in tho
United States circuit court. Indica
tions now point that the trial will not
come to an end before Saturday eve
ning. Miss Susan Dickinson was recalled to
the stand when court resumed yester
day morning. Her testimony whs
principally in regard to the mutters of
the household.
Conductor I laid win, of the train on
which Miss Dickinson was conveyed to
Danville, was next called to tho stand.
He observed her on that cccmilon and
her conduct would not impress one as
that of a person who was of sound
mind.
Miss Martha Brown, the servant, next
testified. The substance of her evi
dence about the actions of Miss Dick
inson was the same us what Miss Susan
Dickinson swore to yesterday.
Lagrange EKgloston, 1!) years of uge,
ami a son of Allan F.gsleston, one of
the defendants, testified that on one oc
casion he saw Anna hold Susan by the
throat und bang her head ugalnst tho
wall of the room. Mrs. Kllnulietll
Stanton, the dressmaker, at whose
place oC business the plaintiff has been
charged with exhibiting signs of In
sanity In her actions, swore that Mis3
Dickinson asked to have her fingers
and toes pulled to thwart the pain she
complained of suffering. This occurred
on move than one occasion. Miss Dick
inson once threw herself on the lloor
and rolled around, screaming hysteric
ally. She threw her feet up In the air.
She called for red pepper to apply to
her temples as a relief from headache.
Sumo Corroborative Testimony.
Mrs. Ira Marcy, mother of the pre
ceding witness, and Miss Nellie Ells
worth, who worked nt the millinery
store, corroborated the testimony in
regard to Miss Dickinson's unnatural
behavior.
Mrs. Susan Glen, of Waymart, was
the flrst one called to the stand In the
afternoon. She was engaged In Octo
ber. IMS, to nurse Miss Dickinson's
mother, and remained until May 12,
ISM. A good part of the fall of 1SSS
Miss Anna was In bed and under the
doctor's care. Dr. Johnson was the
physician. At various times the wit
ness observed actions on the part of
Miss Dickinson that savored of insan
ity. She spnke of Susan R. Anthony,
Mrs. Frances Llvetniore, Rhea, Mod
Jeska and Fanny Davenport, and
charged that they were conspiring to
ruin her reputation.
The witness thought that such senti
ments were evidences of Insanity. She
carried a jug of alcoholic stimulants
up to Miss Anna's room once. No one
in the house was In the hnbit of Indulg
ing In the flowing bowl hut Miss Anna.
The treatment of Anna by Susan while
the witness lived with them was kind
and Indulgent.
Allan Kggleston, of Pittston, one of
the defendants in the suit, was called
and he wpnt over practically the same
ground as Miss Susan Dickinson, In her
direct and cross-examination.
Judge Dalley cross-examined the wit
ness, whose blunt answers kept the au
dience In cheerful humor. Mr. Kgcle
ston related all his part In tho excit
ing occurrence that took plac In the
plaintiff's room the day she was taken
to Danville. The witness stood apart
from the other gentleman present In the
room, and left no hand at all on the
plaintiff. For some time antecedent to
the day that she was removed to Dan
ville, Miss Dickinson ucted like one who
was crazy or under the Influence of li
quor. The witness did not think that
she was suffering' from over Indulgence
In alcoholic stimulants.
The Liquor Purchased.
C. W. St. John, of Pittston, was the
next witness, lie keens n liquor store
and eild alcoholic stimulants to Miss
Dickinson during the fall of 18S!) and
spring of 1890. The exhilarating bever
age i sold in quantities from a quart
to a gallon. Sometimes the purchase
was plain whiskey, and sometimes the
order was for gin, brandy, porter, etc.
Miss Anna Dickinson called In person
at his store on one or two occasions,
but the most of the times some mes
senger came. The messenger was not
sent, as far ns the witness knew, by
Miss Anna especially. The orders came
from the Dickinson household and were
charged to the family.
Mrs. Jemima flrldiths, of West ritts;
ton, was called to the stand. She was
on the flosest terms with the Dickin
son family, particularly with the moth
er. She was only slightly acquainted
with Miss Anna. On the morning r.f
February 25, ISM, tho date or the plain
tiff's removnl to Danville, Miss Susan
Dickinson sent word to Ih? wltneps to
come to the household and nsslst In
preparing Anna for removal to n hos
pital for mental treatment.
Mrs. Orimths testified that she re
sponded to Miss Susnn's npprnl nnd
arrived at the houss about 10 o'clock In
the morning. She proceeded with a re
cital of the details that led up to the
moment that the defendants went to
her room to take her away.
Miss Anna wnnted to know the mean
ing of this outrage, nnd one of the
gentlemen told her they had come to
take her away to a place where she
would have rest nnd trentmnnt. At
this she stormed and raved and In
formed them that whenever It became
necessary for her to bo treated for any
trouble, thpn she would be entirely com
petent to manage her own affairs.
No unnecessary violence was used to
prepare Miss Anna for removal, and
whatever force was used resulted from
her own resistance.
Thought Kho Wus lnsnno.
From the actions of Miss Anna on
that occasion the witness was nnd Is
still under the lmprerslon that she was
craiy. She Uescrllied the restraining
Jacket put upon Miss Dickinson. It
was made out of strong black oloth and
laced In the back. Mrs. Uritlltha und
Dr. Hellman put the Jacket upon Miss
Dickinson, who fought and struggled
with them.
They had to take It off again because
MIsb Dickinson would have torn It off.
Mrs. Qrinitha again reiterated that she
thought Miss Dickinson was crazy.
Mrs. Mary J. March, of Tioga county,
was tho next witness. In tho spring of
J.Kyi the witness was employed at the
Danvlllo Insane asylum. She recounted
the details of Miss Dickinson's recep
tion at the Institution and her de
tainment therein for five weeks. Miss
Anna very often spoke of sending tele
grams to Jay Oould, Howe & Hummel,
her lawyers and other distinguished
gentlemen. She often effusively kissed
the witness. Her conduct on the whole
was that of a person of unbalanced
mind. She spoke of being the victim of
a foul conspiracy.

RECEPTION AT ST. CHARLES.
Given by the Servant-. Ltuployed About

It would have been worth more to
a hypochondriac than all the remedies
and tonics known to medical science to

ent man of Nay Aug Hose company,
who, through antitoxin, has had a re
markably quick recovery from an at
tack of diphtheria.
The little girl was found to be suffer
ing from the dreaded disease about a
week ago, and as she was unable to
swallow any nourishment, it was de
cided to procure a supply of antitoxin.
Dr. Coolidge Injected a tab'.espoonful

DELUGE OFJM BUSINESS
Each Branch of Councils Holds a

0RAT0KY N0TICAIJLY ABSENT
business Performed with Celerity in An
ticipation of Monday's 1 Imil .Meetings.
Public .Market Ordinance Passes Two
Itcudings In tho Common Drunch.
Each branch of councils met last
night and held a busy meeting. There
was a noticable absence of oratory, and
business was transacted with a rush
owing to the fact that each branch will
hold only one more meeting before re
organizing fur the new liscal year of
1S!)5. Last session adjourned to meet
at 9 o'clock Monday morning.
Early In the session of the select
branch Adum Schroeder, elected from
the Sixteenth ward, In Tuesday's spe
cial election, presented his certificate of
election and took the oath of olflce.
On motion of Mr. Roche the meeting
first went Into the eighth order of
business, and, in addition to the ordin
ance providing for a 13 6-10 mills general
and special tax levy for 1195, the follow
ing ordinances were passed on third
reading and sent over to the common'
brunch for concurrence. Providing for
thi construction of a main sewer on
Washington avenue from Stafford
Meadow Brook to Beech street; provid
ing for treasurer's sales of real estate
for unpaid city taxes. Each of these
measures was passed on two readings
in the common branch.
That Seventh War J Mil J die.
A resolution presented by Mr. Roche
and drafted by the city solicitor created
some debate. The measure provides
for the removal by the street commis
sioner of encroachments on Green's
place, In the Seventh ward, within n
compromise spnee twenty feet wide,
and that In case property owners re
fuse to remove obstructions the city
solicitor uhall begin suits of ejectment.
President Chittenden relega'tcd the
chair to Mr. Latter and spoke briefly,
as did Mr. Wagner, against hasty
action on the resolution. They con-
i tended that the enforcement of the res-
olutlon might Involve the city In dam
I ages. Mr. Roche said that the city
I solicitor held otherwise, und that the
I latter had said the purpose of the reso
lution could be enforced If It required
Che use of the entire police force and
the Thirteenth regiment.
The resolution passed without opposi
tion. Decided action was taken upon n
statement of the delinquent tax col
lectors from 1X77 to 1S9X The state
ment was furnished by the city con
troller and shows thirty-one collectors
delinquent to a total of $15,949."i2. Mr,
Williams' motion, seconded by Mr.
i Wagner, prevailed lliat the matter be
i referred to the city solicitor with In
structions to proceed, If possible,
against either the collectors or their
bondsmen for the recovery of all de
linquencies previous to 1S92.
A number of minor mutters were
acted upon previous to adjournment
IN COMMON COUNCIL.
Mr. Roche's Public Market Ordinance
Passed Two Readings.
An unusual precision and dispatch
featurod the session of common council,
which considered a deluge of resold
tlons and other measures, Including
several Important ordinances.
The 1W5 appropriations ordinance
passed third and linal reading.
The ordinance providing for the es
tablishment of a public market and
creating the olllce of market clerk wns
reported favorably by committee and
passed two readings.
A special committee recommended
that $J,000 be paid John Conway in
settlement of his damage claim against
the city. The recommendation was
adopted.
Ttie city engineer reported unfavoi''
ably the grading work done by prop
erty owners on Willow street between
Irving und Stone avenues. The report
indicated thut only seven out of six
teen lids are at grade, and that In
many pluces the ground will have to be
cut away two feet. The report was
llled.
Select council's recommendation that
the contract for lighting city buildings
be awarded to the Scrnnton lllumlnat
Ing Heat and Power company, where
that company has connections, and hi
other Instances to the Scrnnton Gas
und Water company, was referred to
committee.
Mr. Battle objected to the Peoples'
Water company bill for $:170 for
hydrants ami water In the Nineteenth
ward. The bill was not Included In a
butch of bills passed and which had
bren reported favorably by the audit
Ing committee.
REORGANIZATION MONDAY.

und common council Is being discussed
with avidity. At 9 o'clock Monday

Jotirn sine die preparatory to the re

The Initiated profess their ability to
forecast the result In the select branch,
which contains n Republican majority
of two members, and where only a
president Is to bo delected. Charles W
Westpfiihl, of the Nineteenth ward. Is
the Republican caucus nominee nnd
will be elected. Tho Democrats have
not selected a candidate, but It is prob
able that they will name either Victor

In common council, which has a

P. J. Nenlls, of the Fourteenth, the
present incumbent, (has been nominat

succeed himself to the presidency.
James J. Grler, of the Third, another
Democrat, Is an independent candidate

Assuming that Mr. Noone will not

RESTS WITH THE WOMEN.
They May Hove the Hlglit to Vote Whon
They Wont It.
"Holland" In Philadelphia Press.
One thing is certain, it rests entirely
with tho women of New York state
whether they may have the suffrage or
remain without a vote. Whenever it
ehull be demonstrated that u consider
able majority of the women of tho ptate
want the electoral franchise they will
receive It. It Is not the men, the voters
who are preventing woman suffrage In
Now York state, but Instead the great
body of wives and mothers. With the
exception of n few earnest organized
efforts, such us women made in this
city, und In a few of the other large
towns and states, there was no evi
dence brought to the constitutional con
vention of any special desire of the
women to secure the suffrage. Even
this organized effort was matched by
hostile organizations created by wo
men In this city nnd In lirooklyn.
Throughout the rest of the state, it
was said at the time of the constitu
tional convention, that It had been Im
possible to create any sentiment on the
part of the women in favor of an exten
sion1 to them of the suffrage. Had there
been evidence of a sincere desire of the
women of this state to obtain the right
of suffrage It is very likely that the
constitutional convention would have
given them that power, so fur as it
could, anil by the simple expedient of
striking the word male from that clause
of the constitution which dellncs and
limits the right of suffrage.
Sewers Not to lie I lushed by Sea Water.
London's county council has decided
against the proposal to construct aqua
ducts for the conveyance of sea water into

SUITS
FOR EVERYBODY.
Once in a while somebody
comes in and says : " You
ready-made folks can't fit me."
That man has had hard luck;
he's been into a small ready
made store or a big one,vhere
they don't keep sizes enough
or where sizes don't fit:
IT IS DIFFERENT HERE
OUR sizes fit, and thera
are always plenty of them
plenty, for example, of those
nice Mixed Cheviots and
Tweed Suits, plenty of those
delicately woven, yet very
handy, Worsteds. Suits for
slim men. stout men and all
sorts of men. Call and see.
