ASYLUM ROW AIRED WITNESS DECLARES FHIOTION IS OF LONG STANDING. * BABCOGK TALKS AGAIN Investigating Committor Continues Its Hearings in Asylum Mutter? Monday's Witnesses Spend Most of Their Time in Amplifying Testimony of Preceding Days. Declarations of Capt. J. \V. Bunch, nephew by marriage of Senator Tillman and appointed by the latter in 1891 to his present position at tho asylum, that friction between Dr. J. W. Babcock and his subordinates of the State Hospital for the Insane existed before Governor Blease came 1 a - - * imu umtf, ur me men appointed oy him on the board of regents took charge; that Fred II. Dominick daring his service on the board was one of the best presidents of the board of regents he had ever known; denial by Mrs. Bessie Sanders, formerly Miss llessie Allen, who served as stenographer at the asylum, that Mr. Dominick ever made a remark derogatory to I)r. Babcock or that ho had said they were going to get rid of Dr. Babcock, and corroboration of the testimony of Governor Blease, given Saturday, by Col. E. II. Aull, featured the second session of the committee probing into matters at the State Hospital for ho Insane, which was held Monday. Tho grilling Dr. Babcock gave Col. Aull concerning somo confidential conversations they had directly after the receipt by Dr. Babcock of Governor Blease's letter demanding the removal of Dr. Saunders excited interest. Dr. Babcock, paying a high tribute to tho friendly efforts of Col. Aull to bring about peace and liar-J mony, said that on tho night lie showed the governor's letters to r.ol Aull, they had some confidential conversation concerning tlie letters, what a certain party would jyiy for them, and about some newspaper. Col. Aull said ho recollected stating if the asylum was to be made an issue, he pro. posed for I)r. Babcock to run for governor and ho would support him in his paper, the Newberry Herald and News. Dr. Babcock kept insisting there was something about a certain party and what he would pay to get hold of the letters, or something concerning some big possiblo political effect, apparently having to do with the fortunes of some candidate. Col. Aull couldn't recollect anything else, but Dr. Babcock insisted there was another statement which he said was vital. On his starting to say something Chairman Mauldin told him to n.sk what questions he would and that bo would be given another opportunity to go on the stand and tell what he wanted. Again uovornor mease warned tlie witnesses not to drag the names of any of the female members of his family into the matter, as tl^ey have nothing to do with it. lie said whoever dragged in their names ho would hold personally responsible. As far as concerned any confidential conversations he had with either Dr. lhibcock or Col. Aull, or anything he had said or written about the asylum, ho relieved them of the ban of confidence, and told them to tell it all. Another feature of the session was the testimony of Col. Aull that the asylum commission favored the retention and development of State park and the removal of the asylum there, while Gov nor Dlease favored the sale of that property and the retention of the present property in the city. This was brought out under cross-examination by the governor. The sessions of the committee were resumed at 3:30 o'clock and the Supreme court room was p eked to the doors with spectators. There were several ladies in the audience. Governor Dlease, Assistant Attorney General Dominick, Dr. and Mrs. ,1. W. Babcock, Dr. R. D. Saunders, the lady whose retention or dismissal appears to have been the bone of contention between Dr. Babcock and the majority of the board of regents, sat inside the rail. Capt. J. W. Bunch was the first witness, bis direct examination being conducted by Mr. Stevenson, a member of the investigating committee. The captain, who is secretary of the board of regents, identified certain minutes of the board, especially concerning the resolution to elect subordinates for terms of tw* years, and on the first of July last, he states, ten places were filled, only three changes being made. The minutes of the board in executive session when Drs. Babcock and Saunders were condemned, and the subsequent resolutions exonerating Dr. Saunders and the closing of the incident by the board, all of which has already been printed, were related by the witness. It Ana shown that Dr. J. II. Taylor, a member of the board of regents, stood squarely behind Dr. Babcock and Dr. Saunders, and protested against the action of the board. It was brought out also that Solicitor J. K. Henry, as attorney for Dr Saunders, said he would appeal his client's case to a higher tribunal, and Kl>, WINS BRIDE AND WEALTH BOY WKIW? HKIKKSS HKLIKVING 11KK POOH. : ? \fter Their Wedding Fortunate Youth Saw Bride Only Once, on Her Doattibed. A tale, alive with many of the elements of the dime novel, Is the story of the past six months of the life of Sylvanus Gray of Durham, N. C\! About six months ago young Gray, >\ho is about *21 years old, was employed ns messenger boy by the Western Union Telegraph company, lie was dispatched with a telegram to be delivered to Miss Lulu Johnson of! Lynchburg, Ya., who was visiting in West Durham. \ Young Gray declares that the moment his eyes fell upon Miss Johnson ho knew that it was a case of love at lirst sight. With the young lady it was apparently the same; for before the messenger boy had left tho house they had arranged to get married, although they had never seen one another prior to that moment. A few days later the young lady drovo to West Durham from her homo in an automobile, called Mr. Gray up over tho telephone to meet her, which he did, and they were quietly married. After riding round for several hours in the machine Mrs. Gray bade her husband keep tho affair a secret, telling him that her people must not find it out, and told him that she must go back home, but would send for him soon. From that day Mr. Gray heard no more from the young lady till he received a telegram some live months later slating that she was dying, and bidding him to hasten to Lynchburg immediately. Since Mrs. Gray's death it has developed that she was an heiress to $200,000, the legacy of an uncle who has sinco died. Through the will of tho dead Mrs. dray all her property reverts to her husband, tho former messenger. that the same statement was mado by Dr. Habcoek to the board. Governor Please cross-examined Capt. Hunch, and the governor asked him if there was any politics in bis appointment by Governor Tillman to succeed 11. P. Green, or if there was any politics in the appointment 01 Dr. Habeock, rising to a question ot personal privilege, stated that when ho was appointed he did not know Governor Tillman, and was working outside of the State at tlie time. Young Dr. Grifiln, son of the former superintendent, and a member of the medical staff at tho asylum, wanted to make a statement, but Chairman Mauldin told him ho would be given a chance later to testify. Capt. Bunch said Messrs. Oarout Iters, hivens and Settlemcyer had tried to put down the friction at the asylum, and tho governor himself had onco come out and addressed tlie nurses and helped to avert a threatened strike. Col. John K. Anil, private secretary to Governor Blease, said he had taken tlio stenographic notes of the executive session of tho regents when Covernor Blease was present and the members of the medical staff made their charges against I)r. Saunders for interfering with them. He, on the consent of tho governor, agreed to transcribe these notes for the committee at tho earliest possible moment. Mrs. Bessie A. Saunders, formerly ographer at tho asylum from 1910 to January of this year, and in the capacity of stenographer \va*k present at the executive session of tho regents referred to above, but she found it took an expert to take the testimony and Col. John K. Aull being present in this capacity, sho burned her notes after the session. Mr. Dominick read the testimony of Dr. Babcock on Saturday, which was to the effect that he, Dr. Babcock had heard that Mr. Dominick said in the presence of Miss Allen that they were going to get rid of him as soon as possible. Mrs. Saunders said nc such statement was made in hei presence, nor had she ever heard Mr /I lonnoa * lift mn au~ ?- w ....... v, ..

Aull?Recollect** Remark l)r. I ltubcock Tried to Bring Out?Says Woman Physician is Most Service to Institution. i ! Following is tho ofhcial stenoI graphic report of the testimony given Thursday by E. II. Aull of Newberry before the legislative committee, investigating the State Hospital for tDo Insane: Elbert II. Aull recalled: Mr. Chairman, 1 do not care to withhold anything from the committee that is of vital importance to the investigation. I had a talk with Dr. Babcock and he states that that remark which 1 made which is of vital importance, was that I said Tho Stato newspaper would give him a good sum to get possession of those letters and that if they mio j?uuiioiiuu i'- y wuuiu ueieai lUease for the Senate and elect Smith. I do not consider it of vital importance, but I recall that I did make the remark. I made another rofhark nnd that was that at least ono of the letters was a reflection upon Dr. Saunders and if not it was at least very unfortunately worded. 1 so stated to Gov. Blease and ho stated that he did not Intend to reflect upon Dr. Saunders. That is all that 1 wanted to say. I will state that I had a great many conversations with Dr. llabeock. I have been here onco a week on this other work for at least two years and I have seen him every time I have been hero. Mr. Stevenson: Colonel, there was ono question that 1 wanted to ask you. everybody took off thejieal of confidential relation the other day as to who it was doing tho talking in the homo at Newberry, and I think that it is proper that wo should know who was doing tho talking at that time. There seems to ho sr?mn uic i pute about it. Mr. A nil: Well, 1 think, Mr. Stevi enson, tliat Gov. Bleaso is the proper ' man to do that. He ia the man that ' heard it and lie is a witness in this case. Q. Well, ho didn't state that, but ; he stated that you might tell what he said about it. Now what I want to know is the person doing the talking. > A. I do not know who was doing the talking. 11(3 only mentioned one name as doing the talking and I would rather lie would state who that was. If lie wants to let it out, gentle men, why, he can tell you. 1 Q. Well, you heard him state the other day that you are at perfect liberty to state what he told you about ! it. A. Yes, sir. Q. And it might or it might not have any bearing on this investigation ? Mr. Hardin: Mr. Stevenson, that does not compell him to state it. i Mr. A nil: 1 would rather not state i it. Let Mr. Blease stato it if ho i wants to. i Dr. Babcock: Colonel, you refer> red to conversations that wo had had relative to the?your general interest in the State hospital. I think from your acquaintance with Dr. Saunders r you had formed an opinion about her i nK(m..o (i i /1111 > ; ? Mr. Aull: Oh, Doctor, I havo said absolutely, time and again, from s what knowledge I gained of her, she , is one of the most efllcient officials of ' tho institution. Q. What about her relative value 5 to tho institution? A. What do you mean by that? Compared with the r others. 1 Q. Yes, sir. Within two weeks wo > havo had such a conversation. A. I 1 have said this, that I thought a phy' sician like Dr. Saunders, who is at 1 the institution all tho time, is worth ' as much as three or four physicians who go in once a day. Q. Did you name any^doctors? A. ' Take the ones in there now. Q. In the conversation with me 5 you named several doctors. I would ! like to have the committee know the names of the physicians. ' A. I do not know anything about tho physicians. I do not know their capacity. But I stated the general ; proposition that one physician, who is there all the time is worth as much 1 to the Institution as three or four > who arc going in once a day. Q. You don't remember tho names of the physicians with whom you | compared Dr. Saunders? A. Well, I did not mean t<f compare them or their ability or.their efficiency as physicians, because 1 do not know anything about that. Q. Hut you did make a comparison? A. Yes, sir. I make it now. That one physician who stays there is worth as much as three or four w no only come in, because she Is subject to call 2 4 hours In the day. Q. Let's come down to specific cases. In your talk with me about Dr. Saunders, her value to the institution. naming Dr. Saunders, you compared her with some others. Dr. \ TRY TO KILL LIEUTENANT AMERICAN NAVAL OFFICER LS SHOT AT VERA CRUZ. As a Result Consulate of American Representative Lintl is Cuarfled l?y Eight Stalwait Blue-Jackets. An attempt wns made Wednesday night to assassinate Iieut. Artliur 15. Cook, fjag lieutenant to Rear Admiral Mayo, of the United States battleship Connecitcut. Lieut. Cook was struck by a bullet and slightly wounded. llis assailant \? as not seen. The lientenant, accompuniei uy his wife and Miss Ethel McKoazio, of Philadelphia, had been dining with Admiral Mayo aboard the flagcliip. Returning to the landing place, the party took an open carriage to drive to the steamer Mr rro Castle, on which Mrs. Cook and Miss Mclven/io were to sail. The two v/)mon occupied the roar seat. Lieut. Cook, conspicuous in a full dress white uniform, sat facing them. As tho party was proceeding down Avenida de la Independencia a sharp, but not loud, detonation was heard, and Lieut. Cook felt a shock on the left hip. which at the time he did not associate with what appeared to ho a shot. On alighting at the wharf Lieut Cook found a small object on the carriage seat, which proved to he a bullet of the typo used in pocket automatic pistols. Investigation showed tho bullet had inflicted a bruiso on bis lilp. 15oth Mrs. Cook and Miss McKensic were greatly agitated by tho discovery of the bullet. Having seen thorn to their state room, Lieut. Ccok returned aboard the flagship and reported the attack to the Admiral, who Thursday morning communicated with John Lind and the American consul, W. W. Canada. They notified (Jen. Miias, military commandant at Vera Cruz without, however, making any formal demand. Mr. Lind later informed Gen. Maas that the arrest of persons for assaulting American officers of civilians is a matter of small importance, compared with the responsibility of the General in connection with such incidents. It is not believed the attack was a deliberate plot, but the sudden act of some desperado. Recently quiet arrangements were made to eecuro the personal safety of Mr. Lind. Until a few days ago he took long walks in the outlying country. At the consulate no guard was maintained, but signal boys were ^ brought from the fleet to act as messengers. In consequence of secret information reaching the consulate the signal boys were replaced by eight stalwart picked bluejackets, four of whom are on duty day and night. AT.. 1 i.. ,1 ...1 ' ** *1... ivinvi, wiiciiuvlt nt? leaves me consulate now, is followed by a big blue-jacket, who, although unarmed, is within immediate striking distance. Mr. Lind was opposed to these pre, cautionary measures, but finally was persuaded that conditions demanded them. Tho United States battleships Connecticut, Ohio and Minnesota were to have sailed for Tampico, but the order was rescinded anc^they will await tho return of Admiral Fletcher. STATE GETS MONEY.

Some one else, is there not? A. Dr. Thompson. Yes, sir. Q. That is all? A. I do not mean by that to say that I know anything about the efficiency of those four physicians, because I do not. Mr. Hardin: Upon what knowledge of the affairs of the Insane asyi lum do von predicate your opinion? Mr. Aull: Not a thing. But 1 have had talks with superintendent? of institutions where they expressed i .. - - - i mo same opinion. I do not know that 1 stated anything about the effi cicncy or competency of these physicians, but I say as a general proposition that any physician who is ori duty 24 hours a day and subject tc call is worth as much as three oi four coming in once a day. Q. You do not know anything about the qualifications of any of the physicians? A. No, sir; I do not pretend to. Send in your subscription now CLASSIFIED ^COLUMN For Sale?Shetland Ponies.
