DISMAY IN PROSECUTION > CHICAGO, September 39—Dr. Allport mede a statement on the witness stand today that caused a profound sensation for a few minutes. He was examining the temporal bone which had been identi- fied by Professor Dorsey and pronounced my the latter not only a temporal bone, but the temporal bone’ of a woman. “That bone is not a temporal bone, elther of a human or of the lower order of ant- als,” deciared Dr. Allport, gaging at the exbibit intently. “It is a composition of bones put tegether by artificial means. ‘The trace here which Professor Dorsey said was the outline of a factal nerve is a fiber of animal! matter with which the bones are stuck together The statement w thi akin to dismay for a moment.

Sharp Cross-Examination. Dr. Allport did rot know what was in store for him in the cross-examination. Prof. Dorsey had prepated for the prosecu- tior a list of questions that stirred the Northwestern University professor when they were propounded by Assistant State's Attarrey McEwen. The questions were bristling with technicalities and were framed with a view to testing Dr. Allport’s knowledge of osteology.

James Gray died in New Orleans early this morning of the disease, He lived on Esplanade avenue. President Oliphant, Dr. Carter and Dr. Guiteras reached this city early this morn- ing. They had lef. yesterday to meet Dr. Swearingen and other health officers with a view to the raising of the quaran- tine embargo against freight and had a very rough experience. At Raine.a mob with shotguns prevented their further progress, and they were ordered to turn pack, which, under the circumstances, they were compelled to do. During their trip had gathered up some twenty-four ntatives of health boards and held ting at Cade, at which they fully 1 the situation here and elsewhere opted resolutions tending to relieve and the congestion of freight. A committee was appointed to communi- cate with the authorities on the lines of the Texas and Southern Pacific, with a view to securing an amelioration of pres- ent oppressive conditions. All those in the party said they thought that the trip would resuit in great good. Dr. Guiteras takes his experience good- naturedly, although surprised at the terror evident in some of the country districts. He will stay here at the St. Charles Hotel, and will await orders before making any attempt to proceed to Beaumont. Filling the Hospitals, The authorities today are busily engaged in making arrangements for moving more patients into the yellow fever hospital on Canal street. There are more than a dozen patients there now, but several others will be moved in today. The doctors in charge reported this morning that the mar Pierre Pourblanc, who died last night, and whose death was not included in the official re- port, had been brought to this city yester- Gay in a moribund corditioa. There was then no hope of his recovery, and he was so far gone that little about nim could he learned. Dr. A. Echinard reported to the board that he had found-a very suspicious case on Royal street of a boy who had been at the detention camp, and who had keen taken ill. The apartment house in which he was found is filled with Turks and for- eigners, are in a very ugly mocd and badly frightened. An extra force was sent to take care of these people and to quarantine the premises. The beard of health has made arrange- ments to provide quarantined people with apparatus for fumigating letters which they desire to send to. the post office. Mail business here has gone to smash, owing to the number of trains that have been taken off, and the fact that the prejudices of people in country towns are -pitched so high that they will not even receive ‘thor- oughly disinfected letters.

A grave calamity threatens the Irish farming population during the coming win- ter. Toward the end of June and the be- ginning of July there were general con- gratulations on the prospect of a splendid harvest. The potatoes looked exceedingly well, there was an excellent yield of hay, oats were luxuriant, and root crops gener- ally gave promise of a plentiful return, ‘To- day all the bright anticipations of two months ago are rudely dashed to earth, and instead of plenty and prosperity, some- thing approaching a famine stares thou- sands of the Irish farming and laboring population in the face. For the past six weeks the weather has been of an unfavor- able description,and the continuous drench- ing rain of the last elght or ten days has in numerous cases completed the ruin of the crops. 3 Reports from all parts of the country tell the same woeful, depressing tale. The hay is in many cases rotting. The oat crop 1s beaten down into the earth, where the ear, again, and what was early cut is badly tainted with mildew. But worse, most ter- rible of all for the poorer classes, the dreaded blight is playing deadly havoc with the potato crop. When all else has failed, the potato has been the mainstay of life for the impoverished Irish tenant; should that crop generally give way the’ outlook would be grave in the extreme. Yet such a failure, unless there is an immediate and complete change in the weather, may al- most be led as a certainty. ad Boat in Mee is a matter for rejoicing in Ireland; it only helps to give a deeper tinge of darkness to a picture that is sufficiently black. In several of the poorer districts the boards of. have already been din number, show min: ALBAUGH'S ANSWER FILED | Hearing Given. jn,:ftis Tatijita ‘Square Bast ears Opera ‘House Caso. Denial of the Allegations Made In the Bill for Appointment of a Receiver. Manager John W. Albaugh of the La- fayette Square Opera House today filed his answer to the suit filed against him last week by Mr. Uriah H. Painter, his associ- ate in the theatrical partnership, in which Mr. Painter osked for a dissolution of the vartnership, the appointment of a receiver therefore, and that the court require Mr. Albaugh to accept an offer ‘for the sale of his interest to Mr. Paintet. The answer filed today by Messrs.. McKenney and Por/) ter on behalf of Mr. Albaugh was a very voluminous paper, an abstract of which Was published in yesterday’s Star. Counsel Given a Hearing, Judge Cole, sitting in Equity Court No. 1, today gave counsel a hearing on the rule issued against Mr. Albaugh, requir- ing him to show cause why a receiver should not be appointed. First, Messrs. Blair and Thorn, counsel for Mr. Painter, read the bill of complaint, counsel for Mr. Albaugh then reading his answer. In his answer Mr. Albaugh emphatically denies that either he or the partnership is insolvent. The gross receipts for the last season, he said, were $50,000 larger than during the preceding season, the profits being over $13,000 greater. ‘He as emphat- ically denied any appropriation of the partnership funds, other than that agreed upon between himself and Mr. Painter. He denied that statements of the business have been refused his’ associate, stating that every night and also every week a detailed statement is and, has been sent to Mr. Painter. Mr. Albaugh declares that he has paid in all he ever agreed to pay, and explained that the correspondence between their respective attorneys was not a con- tract of sale. Partnership Affairs. Mr. Albaugh referred again to the part- nership as a most profitable one, and as- serted that the net profits for this season «will not be less than $15,000. He pointed out that the appointment of a receiver would practically wreck*thelf business. He therefore asked that ,, a eS eee e denied and suit dismissed. ot pon the conclusion HES qgeading of the bill of complaint and Mr. Albaugh’s an- swer thereto, counsel. to argue the case, with the prospeetthat the hear- ing would continue threughgut the day.

Mr. Kent states that the defendants con- tracted March 15, 1897, to do the carpenter work on the houses for $1,650, but demand- ed the first of this month $200 in advance of agreed-upon installments, which he paid them to avoid damage to himself. But he Says that the defendants have not only falled to promptly proceed with the work, but also yesterday prevented its comple- ae by carpenters he had engaged there- for.

The following has been receivei from Vice Consul Simon at Hanover: For about two years efferts have been made to- introduce American horses into Germany. At first, great difficulties had to be overcome. The accommodations on the ships were not good; a large percentage died during the voyage, and the rest ar- rived in such bad condition that the whole lot had to remain in quarantine for several weeks. The freight and other expenses of transportation were high, and last, but not least, the horses were not the kind needed in G ny and hence were not sold at profitable prices. Now, however, some ships of the Hamburg and Bremen fines are fit- ted out expressly for this service. The freight is lower—$25 per horse, I am told— and the man attending the horses is taken over and returned free cf charge. The ac- ¢cmmodations are so perfect that the horses arrive Fere in goed condition. The Icss on the voyage is reduced to from 2 to 4 per cent. The result is they are permit- ted to be landed without quarantine. Thc’ number of horses sent to Hamburg is much larger than the number sent to Bremen. The unloading at the former port is more convenient, as they can go from the shi Girectly to’ the pier, wh'le in Bremerhaven | C@™ Be Made or Nordenhamm, the ports for the Bremen steamers, the horses have to be lightered ashore. The American horses which sell most readily in the German market are thick-set working animals of the Percheron breed, with short, specially heavy legs. Untti lately, this variety was mostly imported from Belgium. The home demand there, however, has become so great that horses of full growth are at once bought, leaving only young colts to be exported. Danish horses, large numbers of which are impor- ted into Germany, are used for tramways 3; they are not so heavy as th» Buyers of American horses have made two complaints: They say that the animals, not being rmany, are shipped, ell the p with PI as we as on oats instead of corn, the ‘animals’ would remain Mgr ip ee epee Potent: complain © majority of the horses are not broken to harness.
