Using one of Dr. Twyman's in-| struments, said Dr. Hyde, he bled James| Moss Hunton, “Did Dr. Twyman say anything about bringing the bleeding to a close?” Interro- gated Mr. Walsh. Dr. Hyde tried to answer the question by giving the substances of the conver-| sation” between him and Or. Twyman, and the lawyers wrangled over the responses. The witness was plainly disconcerted and seemed to be confused by the objectlons of | the attorneys. His face flushed and h mopped the perspiration from his brow with a handkerchief. Finally the squabbling | closed, and he answered: “Dr. Twyman said something about enough blood having been removed. He never said, however, that we had as much | blood as should have been removed from any man. We took In all, about two or three pints of blood. Dr. Twyman stopped the flow with a string “Was this too much to take from him?" Says Apoplexy Caused Death. “Did he die from the effects of the bleed- ing or from apoplexy?" “Apoplexy.” “After the death did Dr. Twyman ever blood taken from Mr. Hunton?" o Latshaw ordered the question and v stricken out. Dr. Hyde said he became acquainted with Colonel Swope in December, 1908, and saw him at his home on an average of twice a month from that time until his death Colonel 8wope asked him, said the witness, if he thought strychnine tonice he was tak- ing was good for him, and he replied it was. “How did Colonel Swope appear after he quit drinking llquars?’ queried Mr. Walsh, “He was weaker, paler and more despon- dent.

The mention of the name of her cousin, Moss Hunton, brought tears to her cyes, and she was unable to speak. The court room became silent. Attorney Walsh ceased to question the witness. It was fearéd she might collapse. But, after sobbing for a few minutes, Mrs. Hyde composed herself and was able to proceed with her testimony. Thereafter she made A good witness, speaking distinctly and tollowing the line of interrogation without difficulty. The saliont features of her testimony were her declarations that: Dr. Twyman adjusted the string which stopped the flow of blood from Mr. Hun- ton's jbody.

OTTAWA, May -An expiosion which shook Canada’s capital to the foundations and sent the city into the streets in panic occurred just before 6 o'clock Sunday night, four miles away, when the magazine of the General Explosives company, located across the Ottawa river on the outskirts of the Freuch city of Hull, blew up. Ten are known to be dead and fifty at least are injured, some very seriously. Ire broke out in the workshop of the factory, attracting to the neighborhood & |lcrowd of & thousand men and boys who |had been watching a base ball game in a fleld nearby. Warnings were disregarded and the crowd stayed untll two terrific ex- plosions filled the alr with a mass of stone which had formed the walls of the fac- tory two feet thick. Men and boys were mowed down ‘by a fire of artillery. There were no houses of workmen within a quarter of a mile of the factory, but the flying debris reached many of these. In front of one of these Fernand: Lourin was mangled, while his wife, who had been be- m the republican |iside him, was left uninjured, but covered | with the blood of her husband. Two deat and dumb sisters named Carrler were killed at their supper table, while their parents were not injured, by half-ton boulder which had traveled almost half a mile. The company states the amount of th explosive which went off was under ten |tons, but as plate glass windows five |miles away were broken by the shock this |1s considered an underestimate. Practl cally every window in Hull was broken and there was glass broken in every part of Ottawa. Windows were blown out of the Cana- dian Parligment bullding and Rideau Hall, the officlal residence of the governor gen- eral, which was only two miles, from the scene of the ‘explosion, lost pradtically all Earl Grey and the entire household were S0 alarmed that they sought safety in the open.
