trolled by the fusion wine ot Iho party
and much complaint is hcnrd from a number
of Romiino democrats. The state committee
hud miido an appointment for Mr. Morton to
peak hero on the 10th , but some of the true

would bo switched off us It was done duriniz

the Irvlno trial to t iy to interest ttio specta
tor , The entire day was glvon up
to the examination of Insanity ex
perts. The testimony \v is In the
main technical in all of Its terms , and unless
followed very clo'iely was considerable of u
mystery. The defense rested its case
at 'J15 : ! o'clock , nnd the stale's ri-
outtal will doubtless ba completed early
tomorrow forenoon. It Is now practically
certain that the case will go to the Jury
Friday. .
Proceedings In Drtnll.
When ourt convenad this morning the
Helens' ) offered In evidence n photograuh of
the Interior of the dining room where Iho
tragedy took placo. u number of letters
written by Mrs. Irvlno to her husband ,
covering & period from January 21 , 1V.U ,
until May ! l. The purpose of the letters waste
to show that Mrs. Irvlno wrote affectionately
to her husoand and Unit he could gain no
Inkling nf her llason with Montgomery from
tier letters. The letter she wrote from
Omaha Just before leaving for the east con
tained a statement that she would not stop
ut Chicago.
Dr. G. II. Simmons ot Lincoln then took
the stand to continue the expert evidence
ns to the condition of Irvlnu's mind at
the tlma of the shooting. Upon
the assumption that all of Iho facts re
ferred to in the lengthy hypothetical ques
tion put to Dr. Eistman yostorilw after
noon wcro true ho was of the opinion that
Irvlno was insane nt the time hu did Ihc
shooting and incapable of controlling his ac
tions. On cross examination Dr , Simmons
stated thatlhcro may ba but little difference
between insanity uud retaliation or anger.
Ho could not explain the dilToronca between
passions and emotions. The witness was
subjected to u very close examination by the
state.
Tlio defense put a number of witnesses on
the s'and to snow that Irvlno had been very
methodical In his business habits and always
kept copies of all loiters end telegrams.
Irvlno took the stand r.gain to tes
tify lhat ho believed his wife's statements
and confession made in Chicago were true.
Moro H\piM'l Trstliiioiiy.
Dr. M. II. Everett of Lincoln ccntinuec
the expert testimony in behalf of thudofonso
His evidence was practically tno same as
that otTurod by tno other physicians.
J. L , Doty , ono of the attorneys for th <
stnto , was culled by the defense to Identify
the signature of C. E. Montgomery on thi
Grace hotel register , but the stale objectei
nnd the court sustained , on tbe ground tha
It was Immaterial. The court stated that i
wns sufficient for Mr. Irvine to have bsliovoi
that the signature win Montgomery's.
The defense then ottered a nu in liar o
authorities on Insanity In support of the de
fensa of mania transitorla , the authors quotet
being Matideloy , Splt/.itu , Morolor , Ham
inoiiil and oihcrs. After recess Judgi
Powers took tha witness stand am

sitory Irenzy was described at length am
the causes and symptons critically analyzed
At U : . ' ) . " > o'clock this afternoon thu dcfcnsi
rested its case.
M curl OK tin : Other Sldo.
The stnto commenced its rebuttal of th' '
testimony offered by the ilofunsn by mtro
dticing on the witness sland Dr. S. V
ClevenRcr of Chicago , a pathologist of som
note and for some yoara an assistant of th
celebrated Dr. Spil7.Ua. Ho Is the author o
u number of rocoenl/.od authorities on ncutc
diseases and bus boon n contributor lo scien
title journals for the p.ist twontv yoara. Hi
said that a person tailoring under the In
lluenco ot mania transltorla is voilon
and likely to injure bis bos
frlnna ; taut the patient talked i ;
u silly and delirious manner ami i
likolv to bo InroLcrciit. Hu would act nuto
malli'ully , nnd If nnv motive exists ut nil it i
likely to bo nn insane , and such motive woul
lie selected at the time. Tlie.ro is nothing i
medical records , to sbo.v that the moliv
dates back before tlio disease. Is manifested
The attack Is Invnrlaiv followed by dee
slumber with no lucid Intervals between Hi
tranzv and tbe slumber.
Judge McCullough , for the state , then ad
dressed a lengthy hypothetical uncstion I
Dr. Clevengcr , embracing all the point
brought out in the evidence In their natum
sequence , and then asked the doctor what
In hU opinion , was the mental condition c
Ibo prisoner. The doctor replied that th
person described In Iho hypothetical quei
tion was undoubted sane , mat , ho was nbl
to distinguish right from wrong , and that Ii
acted voluntarily In the mutter.
On cross-examination the witness we
uskod by Mr. Whodou whether or not tti
defendant us described by tha hypothetic !
question was us responsible for his action I
killing Montgomery as any othnr perfect !
Mine person would bo. The doctor was ui
ablu lo answer. Mr. Whodon then pt
another long hvpulholicul ( mention whlc
the witness declined to attempt to answi
for tli'i reason tl'iit II did not co
lulu sulllcient facts to enable him to lor
any Judgment. The eroas-oxaimnation wi
very severe and searching uud continui
until nearly half past I o'clock.
Dr. Lconh.iu of Lincoln was the nc :
physician to give expert testimony for tl
slate. The defense objsotod to his being u
lowed to answer the hypolhottcal qtioitmi
put to him by Ibo state on the ground ib
tin was incompetent to express any opinii
on the stibj < c.t. Thn objection was ovc
ruled und the testimony admitted , T
cross examination was not completed win

There were several visiting-minister ? at
the Congregational assembly yesterday mor
ning and t'aov wcro Invited to tnko seals
as corresponding members.
After the ro.uliug of thu min
utes the special order ot busi
ness was the report of the educational
commission lu which the question of
rolcu.Ulon of DjanocJlle.'o aud the consolida
tion of the educational worn ot the church In
tho&tnto formed a very important part.
Tbo report was road by Rev. Gcorgo Hind-
ley. The raport showed the itinioultlcs that
had boon encountered In the plans for the
consolidation of the colleges nnd their re
location. There was but Uttlo of the prop
erty of either Doano or Gates colleges that
could bo used If either college was changed.
The recommendations were as follow * :

Intcnso interest wns manifested all
through the convention during the reading
ot the report nnd the delegates seemed to
stand on the tip-too of expectation when the
'Oiuting was llntshcd.
OppiiMMl tin : CoMKolliliitlon ,
Hev. Mr. Wain wright moved that the report
bo received and then talten up seriatim.
The motion prevailed nod Rev. Walnwright
relieved himself of some very nolhtud con-
icmnatlon of the whole scheme to consol-
date the educational interests or to lutorforo
, vltti either Uoano or ( ! atos coilogo. These
wo schools , he said , had been founded by
eople who meant to do n peed work ; money
had boon contributed from various sources to
> upport the schools and it would , ho be
loved , be unwise to interfere with them.
llo said that when the scheme was sprung
ast year there ware manv things sail that
wor i utterly untrue. Alter the annual con
vention there were things written about the
| ilnn of consolidation that were false
ind misleading , tlo was very much
opooscd to the whole schomo.
Rov. John Power spoKO in opposition to
the consolidation schomo. llo"thnugnt it
would bo better for tbo church to support
two colleges of comparatively small si/c
than to attempt to build up ono largo
institution and malco the whole sutc
tributary to It. Smnll schools
developed local interest and would nccom-
nllsh n proat deal of good. It would bo diffi
cult for tha church to maintain a university
that could compete with the State university.
It would bo wiser to build up schools for
preliminary cello e education , allowing the
graduatOH to look to the great universities
of the country for the complotior
of their course.
A motion was made to adopt the first rec
onuiKMidalion of the committee , viz. , that im
mediate action bo taken to consolidate , am
the discussion turned upon this point.
Tno association adjourned for lunch befon
the matter In question cuno to a vote.
Rev. Genreo J. Powell , n member of tbi
committee , reported that a proposition hai
been submitted by citl/.ons of Lincoln whicl
would msuro for the now Institution borne
thing lilio $100,01)0 ) worth of land nearer ti
the nostofiico than either theWcsloyan uni
vorslty or Union college. Omaha parties hai
promlsod that a good proposition would D
biibinlttcd.
Rev. Gcorgo Hlndloy also reported tha
Lincoln property owners were willing u-ii
nnxious to donate valuable property to ti :
collcgo if it could bo secured.
Dr , Duryea asked how much cash th
committee "thought would bo needed lo star
the work nf putting up buildings neresHar ,
to open n college.
The question was not very doflnitol ;
answered by the commlttoo because th
gentlemen said that the commlttoo nun bee
clothed with very liltlo authority , and lia
not boon nblo to collect , many importnn
facts with icgard * io tbo establishment c
the college. Thu committee thought a no\
commission should bo appointed nnd clothe
with authority to do bomcthing.

nojltlon to the plan of rennvme cither Gates
ur Doane. Hu uehcvjJ that uoth colleges
were doing excellent work n : < d both should
bo continued.
Dr. A. U. Thuln said the problem was a
norploxinc one , Theoretically ho was In
favor of unlllcatlon , but the fai-t that
two colleges hud already been established
and had been moving on for moro than ten
years tn.idn it vor.v. dlflU'titi of solution.
Another mailer must bo considered. In
rasotho association decided to unify , would
the trustees and supporters of Gates nnd
DJIHIOr > lleees be willing to quit
nnd transfer their support and their inlln-
cnco to the now college' Tha association
ml i ; lit establish n college nnd call It the mil-
llcntlon of tno cducallnnnl lutcicsls , but the
association could not compel Doano nnd
Gates to submit , to the scheme. The two col
leges already established couhl keen right on
in-.plto of the demands of the association ,
and It might h ippon that the planting
of n now college would simply bo
to start n third Oongreiruttonnl collejo In
Nebraska. Ho thought that something
ought to bo done to ascertain what stand tbo
trustees of Gates nnd Doane would tnko In
tlio event of the consolidation plan being
adopted.
Vti-\v of Dunlin' * I'ri'sldcnt.
President Perry of Doano college was In
favor ot the consolidation scheme. The
church should hnva ono good , stiong
school and rally nround It. He
would not plead for any locality.
Ho was Interested only In the good of the
educational cause in Nebraska , It was nil
very well to talk nboul God having plenty of
money for both Doano nnd Gates colleges ,
but when bo and others Interested in raising
money for Iheio colleuoi wenl down casl to
plead for hcln Iho people frequently asked :
"How manv students have j-oiil" When
they wen Informed that the number only
reached nbout eighty in collegiate work ,
these eastern people wanted to know what
the Congraeatlonalists of Nebraska meant
by cstnb.lshtne two colleges with ouly u
moro handful of pntills. It was an absurdity
to attempt such n work. Eastern people
would not willingly contrihuta to the build
Ing up or suyuort of two colleges.
And ( tiitn1 I'lvshlrnt , Too ,
President Warren of G ites college said
that Gates college certainly expected to bo
recognized hy the association us u full
Hedged college ut n very early day. Last
year Gates collect : was given to understand
thit this recognition would soon bo given.
If the association did not propose to recou
nt/a Gates college in full college
work , then It could not succeed. As i.n
academy it would be n failure. Ho believed
that unilicatlo ; : would boa good thing If It
could bo accomplished.
llev. Lowls Groirory , one of the trustees
of Donne college , was asked for an opinion.
Ho favored the consolidation idea and said
that in case It was the decision of the com
mission that Doano college should l < u re
moved , ho would favor tbo removal.
Colonel S. S. Cotton of Norfolk , ono of the
trustees of Gates collogo. responded to u de
mand lor a statement of his attitude. Ho
said ho was In the same boat with Dr.
Gregory. Ho was in laver of ono college ,
providing lhat college could bo located at
Nellgh. Dr. Gregory supplemented his re
marks by saying that no would vote lo
locate tlm OIIQ colleco of tha church
at any point in Nebraska thut
might be sesecled by Iho commission , even
though that point should ba Kclmh. This
called for something mjro from Colonel Cot-
ion and he finally said Hint he and tbo other
ustcos of Gates colleeo would agree to the
nlflcallon Idea providing that tin ) Union
nstltution were not located at Crete. It
Mellgh had lo lese Gates college then Crete
vould have lo lese Doane ; lhat was the
eng und short ot the mailer with the Gules
.ollcgo trustees.
Rev. Mr. Foiguson called ulteiition to the
act that thu NationalCongrogattonal lissom-
Iv had become weary of carrvinc Doane
ollogo on Iho benetlciary list.and that tbo as.
embly certainly would not conllnae to heir
Doano if Gates'collogo had also to be In
