lo THE BKP.I 1 ho court room was packed
today by a thronir of puoplo who had gath
ered to hear the cvidonca In thu Irvlno trial.
The day wai unavonlf.il ns fur as tcnsa-
tlonal evenU were concerned. When court
assembled the defense made ndnter'iilncdef-
fcrt to have the court's rulltii ? appointing
.Tudgo McCulioch of liidliinapolls ns ono of the
torneys for th'J ' state rccnHslderod. Mr.
Whcuon stated that if the orJer w.ro sot
nsldo no further objection would ba m ido to
.Iiuipe MLCulloch's nppaaranco in the case.
The object of the defense was evidently to
prevent the Indiana jurist taking any active
part in tbo case. They were willing ho
should sit bv and counsel and ndvisn but
nothing more. Developments of a lively
nature may bo looked for in this lino.
The long expected confession of Mrs.
Itvino was read shortly before the adjourn
ment. It was for this document thnt the big
ctowd had walled so pntlontlv all day , and
when It finally came it was a disappointment
to all who had hopoJ for salacious details.
Mr. Irvine will co on the stand tomomnv
afternoon unless n recess is taken nt
noon until Monday. It mt.y bo pim-
tlvelv staled that Airs. Irvine will not
RO en tbo stand miles ; the state's rebuttal of
the testimony to bo Introduced by the de
fense makes her evidence absolutely necss-
snrv Inthatovont she will testify in behalf -
half of her husband. The state will nUo in
troduce export testimony to rebut llu ex
port evidence to b3 offered bv the defense.
The principal expert for the state will ba
Dr S. Y. Clovlnger of Chicago author of
"Comparative Psysiologv nnd Psjchol ogy , "

Before procecdme with the trial this morn
ing Attorney vVheilon stated that the defense
"
fense would"llko to take up some prelimi
nary matter and called Judge McCulioch ,
one of the attorneys for the sine , to the wit
ness stand. Mr. Whcdon usked .ludire Mc

In confeiencewith Mr. L'irnbcrtbon since the
latter had been aobaired from any pirtlcipa-
tlon in ihiscaso. Attoincy Sncll oljettcd.
Mr Whcdon then stated to the couit
that ho proposed to provo that not
withstanding thu lact thnt Mr. Lanibcrtson
bud been excluded fiom the prosecution bo
had bier , in constant consultation with the
attorneys for the stnto nnd has practically
directed the proiccutiou. Air. Whcaon fur
ther moved that the order ussUnmg .Tuugo
McCul'och ' to the prosecution be put , abide ,
stating that ho would object to his further
nppcarancc in the case. The court overruled
the mution and the case proceeded.
The first witness called bv the state was

waiter at the Hotel Lincoln on tin morning
ol the shooting , llu tclatcd tne circum

fcbeotlng Irvlno was but comparativ , ly little
excited ; t'jat be was llrst subpoeied on
Auf.ubt It and aruin on October b : that on
the latter time ho received $15. Attorney
Whcdon attempted to extract a btatement
from the witness 10 the effect that hu had
told parties th.it there was lots of money in

met. that Irvine baa visited the hotel somn

ancous and arranged oa short

nnd by night the news that the affair would
nlto plnco spicr.d over the soul horn part ot
no county. They gathered In all their
trength and went tn Mr. Hold's homo. Libe
rates were present from 1'ort Chester , Hyo ,
White Plains , Uve Neck and the otber towns
along the southern lino.
Upon arriving at Ophir farm the bards
which accompanied the1 party played several
selections , and Mr. Udd appeared upon

tinguished narty which hud gathered to

words of Introduction Mr. Ueid presented

stepped forward he was erected with round
after round of cheers.
When sufficient silouro cnuld bo restored

as follows :
1'rlilo In American Institutions.
Fellow Citizens of Now York : I should
jo churlish , indeed , It 1 did not make iu-
sponso toour , call after you have uomo sev
eral miles to this beautiful nome of Mr. Keid
on this pleasant October evening. At the
sumo time , 1 am not making speeches in the
canvass , for reasons which arc well known
to my friends and which have no connection
whatever wilu politics.
Generally , thn administrations in presi
dential elections are challenged on account
of tbo condition of tbc business ol the coun
try , ncd I submit that the republican nd-
mintstiaticm of 1'roMdont Harrison can tri
umphantly cnduio such n test. Applause. !
1 doubt if , since the government of the
United States was instituted , anybody at
any Umo has seen vibat wo call good
tunes cenerally. taking In so many inter
ests , aiitl spreading i rosperlty throughout
tin whole domain of trade. I might appeal
to New York It the city has ever pas cd n
season moro satisfactory in financial results
thun for the past two years , in which the
general eflcct ol capital and labor has been
muio prosperous. [ Applause. ]
Opponents 01 the republican party always
represent New Yorkns a commercial city mid
not a manufacturing one , and \ ot the product
of the manufactories ol this city u'lnno is
$77,000,000 a year. That would show that n
failure of that interest would ciippio the
metiopjlis seriously and. to a very hurtful ex-
ten * . Moio men in" New York got their liv
ing from pursuit : protected by the tan IT than
ntiv other t > ource. 1 Irnow that Now York is
the center ot our commerce the great on-
trcpot of trade , but all men encaged in com
mercial affairs In and about Now York are
smaller in numbers than the men engaged in
manufactures.
\Vlirre Democrats Aic MUtiikon.
Now , if you go west , whore the democrats
are making considerable effort and doing a
vast amount of boaitiug [ laughterj will
voa find it different' TaKe Oslo , take
Michiean , take Indiana , tnlic Illinois , and
the products of inannfactuicts are creator 1:1
pecuniary amounts than the products of ae.-
ilculiure In your agricultural states , so
that I think , when it happens to democratic
oratow , who are on the wing , tr.\ lug to
arouse thohostilityof those statpsng inbtthu
protective tariff , they will encounter a senti
ment of which they have not dreamed. We
learn from the democratic pnrtv that tlnoo
western states are In n desperate condition.
The amount of their farm mortgag"s rolls up
into the millions. This is not so umong the
furmcts in New York ; it is not soaoiong the
farmers in Nmv Jersey ; it is not so among
the Inrincir.s in Connecticut ; it is not so
atnoiiL' the fanners of Pennsylvania ; it is not
so among the farmora of any state near by ,
whoso condition can bo easily learned , but
by a singular fatality it Is the western states
that have got all these farm mortgages.
I do not line to sav that gentlemen nave
misrepresented the factsbut , before accepting
them as such you will do well nnd wisely to
dcmanajlho proofs. Tbo tariff , so democratic
papers say. Is the origin of plutocratic gov
ernment when wealth shall tulo and poor
men shall not get tbclr rights.
I shall venture to challenge all state
ments of that kind. A. thorough examina
tion of the list of wealthy men In the country
recently published bus demonstrated the fact
to be quite the reverse ; to such an extent ,
in.Iecd , that in the city of Now York , taking
the llrbt 1 ! > 0 fortunes , not more than ono
cc-iilu bo considered as derived from maau-
fncturiug investments.
HID AiUirc to Irishmen ,
I have a word to say about the Irish. 1
see it is stated that the democrats boast of
hnvlnc the masB of them In their ranks Mm
year. It is ono of the mysteries of our roll-
tie * that a question which interests England
so supremely , which is cacvassod almost ns
much in London as It Is In New Yonc , should
have the Irish vote on the hide of Great
Hritain. If the Irish vote wcro fcolidly
for protection tnoy could defy tbo ma
chlnationB of the democratic partv for
frco trade and throw their influence
on lao slue of thn homo markPl of America ,
against thosidoof Uioforeign market of Kng-
lund. I loiow my appeal has coen fiequontly
made to tbo Irish voters , but I make it with
emphasis now , for I am unwilling to bellovo
that with tbo light of Knowledge u-foro them
thov will acllueratclv bo on thu side
of tbclr former oppressors. I think I shall
relv on my good fiiend Ugan , tbo
brilliant and successful minister tn Chili ,
whom I fool especially glad to meet at Mr.
Heid's table this evening1 , I thlnit I must
rely upon him to intercede with his country
men his countrymen in two sonieB--not to
nul the democratic party In lowering tbo
standard ana the wages of American labor
by their potential votes and tbclr potential
numbers. [ Long continued applause. |
