WILLIAMS
AND K7
IS APPROACHING THE END
Defense Has Nested and Kcbuttal
Testimony Is Being Heard.
MISS DICKINSON IS RECALLED
Dr. l.udwlg Wchlnu, of This City, Testi
fied us on Expert on Insanity
livery Witness for the Defendants
Testified That She Acted Insane.
Dr. Oslesby, of the Danville Insane
asylum, hus been ill for some time anil
could not be present to testify as a wit
ness In tho Anna 15. Dickinson trespass
case In United States circuit court.
Ilia deposition was read to the Jury and
that ended the defendant's side nf the
case. Rebuttal testimony was then In
order anil much of It was taken.
Miss Dickinson horseir was on the
stand when court adjourned Saturday,
but had not finished, and she will be re
called when court resumes at !) o'clock
this morning. It is probable that the
case will not go to the Jury before to
morrow. Judge Dailey. of counsel for
tho plaintiff, will nddress the Jury in
Miss Dickinson's behalf und will occu
py not more than two hours; und If
Judge Acheson. permits It, Attorney
Mcl.aln will also argue. Major Everett
Warren will present to the Jury the de
fendants' Hide.
The story gained considerable circu
lation that the plaintiff will address the
jury. Jiulire Dailey slumped It ns un
true ami added that Miss Dickinson
did not for one moment consider such
u course.
Dr. John S. Hellman, having finished
on Friday -venlng his direct testimony,
was the first one called to the stand
Saturday morning, and he was subject
ed to a tireless cross-examination by
Judge Dailey. The witness explained
the various forms of brain and mind
diseases to the Jury nnd said he was
conlldent that he correctly diagnosed
her case. He knew that her mind was
affected and the remedies he prescribed
were brain sedatives; he also prescribed
heart remedies. She wus In the habit
of indulging so strongly in alcoholic
stimulants that he ordered her to stop
taking them. Dr. Heilmnn was very
positive that Miss Dickinson wus In
sane, Ho Judged It from her actions
and from his professional knowledge
of her physical und mental condition.
Thought Her Mind I nsound.
Dr. Meredith, the ! present superin
tendent of Danville asylum, was the
next witness. Ho has been connected
with the institution as a physician for
the past sixteen years. The witness
met Miss Dickinson the evening she
was brought to Danville and she told
him that her room in her own home
hud been Invaded, herself taken by
violence to a carriage and spirited
away to the train for conveyance to a
madhouse. During her stay at Dan
villa Miss Dickinson lavished unusual
affection on an aged Inmate, "Clranny"
Mooney, who was afflicted with senile
dementia. Miss Dickinson asked for
blanks to send telegrams arid addressed
three to Rev. John Dickinson, San
Francisco; Robert E. Tattison, and At
torneys Howe & Hummell. She did not
at any time ask to have a telegram sent
to the committee on lunacy of the
state board of charities.
Dr. Meredith believed that she was
suffering from a form of Insanity
known as paranoia. This is a condi
tion of insanity that does not neces
sarily impair the memory or will-power
of the ml yd and it is a most dangerous
kind of Insanity. It invariably pos
sesses all who become affected with a
fierce homicidal mania, and another
element of Its danger is that it may at
tack Its victims periodically. A para
noic Is able to converse as well as per
sons generally and It requires the
greatest observation to detect that a
person is afflicted with that form of
lunacy.
Major Warren asked the witness
some hypothetical questions about Miss
Dickinson's case. The witness admit
ted that any person who acted as she is
alleged to have acted was undoubtedly
suffering from paranoia.
On cross-examination the witness
admitted that he could not recall any
occasion when Miss Dickenson was ir
rational during her incarceration at
Danville, nor was she violent or dan
gerous; but he saw her when she was
leaving and she exhibited signs of
paranoic, suffering. She is now in
about tho same mind as when she was
in Danville, and Dr, Meredith believes
that she has paranoia yet.
After Sho Left Danville.
Dr. Meredith swore he saw Miss
Dickinson in the Broadway theater.
New York, in April, 1S91, when she lec
tured on Personal Liberty., She then
spoke In a derogatory manner concern
ing ex-President Benjamin Harrison,
Whltelaw Held, and her sister, Miss
Susan K. Dickinson. He thought that
she was then affected with paranoia.
Dr. Ludwlg Wehlnu of Mulberry
street, this city, was called as an expert
on insanity. Major Warren asked him
hypothetical questions and, the doctor
answered that the actions of Miss
Dickinson, such as eho-has been attrib
uted with, would Indicate that such a
person would be acting, thinking and
willing out of his accustomed manner
of so doing: and would be mentally af
fected. Insanity .is a departure from
an Individual's normal stand of think
ing, feellngr and acting. Egotism and
aversion to one's former friends are
characteristics of paranoic patients.
On cross-examination Dr. Wehlau said
that If a person is justified in the self
opinionated regard then there is no
paranoia.
Miss Maggie Redlgan testified that
she saw Miss Dickinson chasing the
servants through the streets. Then the
deposition of Dr. Oglpsby was read. It
contained the statement that he ex
amined Miss Dickinson when she was
conveyed to the Danville Asylum and
he concluded that sho was ' insane.
Here the defense rested.
Testimony in Kcbnttnl.
Mrs. Jessie Wintersteln, who was an
attendant at Danville when Miss Dick
inson was confined there, was called to
rebut the evidence that the plaintiff
showed signs of Insanity while at Dan
ville. Miss Louise McDonald, of
Wilkcs-Iiorre, who is' pleased to style
herself "Anna Dickinson's friend," was
called In rebuttal, and so was Mrs. Sal
lie Ackley, of New York. The three of
them have testified In behalf of the
plaintiff and their rebuttal was a re
hOHh of their direct testimony.
Miss Dickinson was called to the Wit
ness stand a short while before ad
journment. Her . rebuttal testimony
will occupy the time until about noon
today.
GEORGE THATCHER OF OLD.
ilo and His Alinstrcls tit tho Academy
' Saturday Nigh.
George Thatcher's and Carroll John
son's minstrels appeared, at the Acad
emy of Music Saturday evening and
Impressed , a large audience with the
fact that the company is as good, if not
better, than similar organizations on
the road this season.
. Much of the performance is new,
which is as favorable a comment as
could be made. Thatcher In his mono
logue seems to be as mirth-provoking
ns he was a dozen years ago, and his
new partner, Carroll Johnson, has lost
none of his singing and graceful danc
ing ability. The entertainment Includ
ed several musical and acrobatic spe
cialties and concluded -with a short
black-face farce.
0XE YEAR'S CRIME.
One-third of Over 2,000 Arrests Were
for Drnnkenncns.
The report of the police department
for the yenr ended yesterday and
which wijl be presented to councils to
day shows a total of 2.1i2 arrests for the
year. During this period $3,430.83 was
collected in lines and received for costs,
fees, rewards and nerving subpoenas.
one-third, 7.",rt, of the arrests were for
drunkenness. One prisoner In every
twelve was a female, and of both sexes
two-thirds were unmarried.
niASBK IX COUNCILS.
i:uch llrnnch Holds Itsl'inal 1 81)4 Session
nt'J O'clock 'I bis Mornlna-Kcorcaniii.
thin Pcjilcs lit Noon.
Six new members and five who were
re-elected will begin new terms in com
mon council from the tlmo of reorgani
zation nt noon today. Tho select
branch will reorganize at tho same
hour, each old branch convening at 9
o'clock, however, to Hnlsh old business
and hold the final sessions for the
fiscal year of ISM.
Charles W. Wcstpfahl has been nomi
nated by the Republicans for the pre
sidency of the select branch, and the
Democrats will possibly vote for either
Mr. Schwenk or Mr. Lnuer.
In the common branch the Democrats
have made two nominations. 1. J.
Nenlls Is the caucus nominee to suc
ceed himself to the presidency, und
James J. drier is the choice of at least
two Democrats and all the Republi
cans. From the fact that the Dem
ocrats have only a majority of two,
nnd that one member, Mr. Loftus, ot
tho First ward, is an Independent, tho
result Is uncertain.
For the common council clerkship,
W. F. McLean has been re-nomlnated
by the Nealls Democrats, and H. C.
Hatton is the choice of the Republi
cans. For the city sollcltorshlp James F.
Torrey has been nominated by the
Republicans to succeed himself, and
Attorney M. F. .Sando will be supiorted
by the Democrats. On a joint ballot,
assuming that Mr. Loftus votps with
the Republicans, the vote is a tie.
WOOD'S COLLEGE
Moves to Its New Quarters in tho Hen
wood Building.
Wood's Business College, the largest
and most popular shorthand and busi
ness training school In the eust, will to
day move Into Its elegantly appointed
quarters In the new Henwood building
on Lackawanna avenue. Its offices and
business department will be located on
the first floor. An elevator will be run
in connection with the college and thus
do away with climbing long flights of
stalls, a new feature which will be
gladly welcomed by both ladles and
gentlemen. This is a step in the right
direction, and Is In the line of progress.
Prof. Wood has associated with him
Professors H. F. Crumb, S. I. Wood
and A. L. McCloskey, to whom he bis
sold an interest. The new firm name
will be Wood, Crumb, McCloskey &
Wood. This makes the strongest com
bination of principal teachers in this
country. H. A. Kissinger, O. W. Kra
mer and Miss Kate Haggerty are also
employed, and one of the most widely
known teachers of shorthand in the
United 'States has been engaged to
strengthen the work the coming year.
The volume of business during this
year has been so great that the Profes
sor has deemed it wise to engage a
larger and better corps of Instructors
for the coming year than he has ever
employed.
Tho new firm is to be congratulated
on Its securing such large and well
adapted quarters.
GIANT GILBERT'S BODY.
Scranton Friends Do Not Know About
His Dnrlul Here.
Late last night the body of Colonel
William Gilbert, "The Dahomey
Giant," had not arrived inr this city,
nor could It be ascertained when the
remains would be brought here.
- Gilbert lived here several years ago
and was at one time a special policeman
In the old Arcade. He was, up to the
time of his death, on exhibition. In
Worth's New York museum and died
In that city early Friday morning. His
wife announced that burial would be
made In Scranton.
Dr. H. N. Dunnell, captain' of the
First regiment, Uniformed rank,
Knights of Pythias, of which organiza
tion the deceased was a member, com
municated with the New York under
taker, but received no definite reply.
The giant's Scranton friends anticipate
the arrival of the remains today.
- v
LICENSES AND LANDLORDS.
Possibly the Latter May Seize the Former
Today.
Fifteen liquor licenses only have not
been Issued out of the total number
granted, and for licenses taken out Sat
urday, nominally tho last day for such
purpose, the county treasurer received
$33,275.
It Is argued that because of Saturday
being a half-holiday and the interven
ing of Sunday itho court will permit li
censes to be Issued today. It is re
ported that several landlords will to
day assume licenses which applicants
failed to call for.

day as follows:

1. OWLEJAD AN AXE
Robinsons Pelt It in Democratic
County Committee .Meeting.
HARRITY rORCE STILL LEADS
It Is an Echo of the Old Postofflce
light -Kerr Faction Showed L'p Strong.
O'Hoyle Men Frozen Out of tho
State Convention Delegations.
A". Saturday night's mooting of the
Democratic county committee In the
Central Democratic club rooms was re
votled the extent of the factional fight
between the Hurrity and Kerr forces.
The result proved that Charles Rob
inson hus not lost his grip on the Ilar
rlty reins, but that one out of every
three members of the committee Is dead
iigalnsl him and the lot of the brewer
Democrat Is not exactly a bed of roses.
The, call for the nwtlnjr was Issued
Thursday, from which time John J.
O'Hoyle, leader of the Kerr nnd antl
Harrity faction, began to sharHn his
little axe. That he had succeeded quite
well was Indicated after Chairman
John E. Itocho rnlled to ord-r the twenty-nine
members or their proxies who
responded to roll call. Two appeared
later, making thirty-one of the total
county membership of thirty-three.
I. ike Fighting Roosters.
During the progress of the meeting
Mr. Robinson and Mr. O'Hoyle were
pitted against each other and might
have been compared, IlKurately, to two
red-breasted games In a cock pit. Mr.
O'Hoyle evidently had not forgntlon bin
own throw-down and the appointment
of F. SI. Vandllng to the postofflce and
was Just laying for such nn opportunity
to go In with the Kerr force and toma
hawk anything which smacked of Har
rity. This made the meeting lively.
Mr. Roche relegated the chair to At
torney George S. Horn and offered a
resolution Instructing delegates to the
state convention to present the name
of and support V. P. Smith as the Dem
ocratic candidate for the superior court,
contingent upon the creation of that
ofilce. The resolution was adopted.
Charles Robinson was nominated by
James Ralley to succeed himself as
member of the Btate committee. John
J. O'Boyle was nominated by George
Grlswold.
Mr. Robinson received nineteen votes,
and Mr. O'Boyle nine. M. J. Burke,
who was Mr. O'Boyle's right bower in
the postofnee fight, surprised everybody
by voting for Mr. Robinson, the Har
rlty man. Other members with less
nerve became affected with cold feet
nnd escaped from revealing their
preference.
Game of Frcczc-Out.
The following delegates have been
chosen for the next state convention:
First District F. M. Vandllng, P. F.
McCann.
Second District E. Robinson, J. FJ.
Roche, Charles Schadt.
Third DlHtrictJ. G. Ralley.
Fourth District J. F. McDonald,
James O'Brien, T. J. Duggan.
Before the-selection of the delegates
some lively debating was created by
the fact that the call for the meeting
had not indicated that delegates were
to be chosen. To the O'Hqjie men It
appeared thnt It was e preconceived
plan to put them out In the wet. The
fact that tho delegates are .stalwart
Robliisonlons would Indicate that the
OVHoyllts were good guessers.
The whole meeting considered, the
Robinson men landed every blow and
the only thing accomplished by the
O'Hoyle-Korr force was the gathering
together of the several pieces after the
session.
