ed Mrs. Fleming, nee Mary Alice Almost
Livingston. who is in the Tombs charged
with having poisoned her mother, Mrs.
Evelina Matilda Bliss. is taken Into court,
one of the witnesses against her will be
her swear-old daughter Grace. The police
have evidence that this innocent child
oa'rrled the clam broth oontalning.the
poison from the Colonial hotel to the un-
fortunate woman for whom it was in-
tended. ‘ 3, , .
Another little girl, who was playing
with Grace on Friday, hutw ose name
for the present cannot be m a public,
will testify that she accompanied Grace
when she carried that pull of drugged
clam broth from the Colonial hetelto
Mrs. Bliss.
Little Grace has told her storyto the
police, and it is the most important piece
of evidence against the accused woman.
Fearful that the child would be taught to
tell some other story thanthat which she
has told'them, the police made every
effort to get Henry N. Bliss. the stepfa-
ther of Mrs. Fleming, in whose care the
three children are. to consent to their be-
ing sent to the Gerry society.
Little Grace Taken Charge 0!. .
Agent King of that society called upon
Mr. Bliss three times on this mission, but
Mr. Bliss declared that he was quite able
to take care of the children and would not
part with them unless forced to do so. A
detective was put under orders not to lose
track of the child.

Captain Thompson was questioned on
the subject. “I have sent Grace Fleming

said. “1 have not sent the other two chil-
dren—the boys. They were asleep. I don’t

about this case. so I did not awaken
them. They will be sent to tho Gerry so-
ciety tomorrow."
The detectives wont to the Colonial ho-
tel later and to the rooms which' Mrs.
Fleming had occupied. When they came
out, they brought with them a package
about the size of a cigar box, which they
took to the station.
Alter proving that Mrs. Bliss was poi-
soned by antimony administered to her in
the clam broth, which the preliminary re.
port made to ('orouor 0 Moaghcr by Pro-
fessor Whiter '1‘. Schools seems to make
certain, the most important proof for the
prosecution to otter will be that Mrs.
Fleming sent her mother that clam broth.
The Chain of Evidence.
The facts as for as they are developed
show that some time after 3 p. in. last Fri-
day. on which day clam broth was sort'od
to the guests at the Colonial hotel without
lnjurlous results to any of them. an order
was received In the dining room, which
was in charge of a Miss ‘Kcating, from
mifemlng’ s rooms that a quantity of
the clam broth should be sent up. The
clam broth was taken to the rooms of
Mrs Fleming, and, according to the rule
prevailing in the house, the order for it
was taken with it, to be signed by the re-
elplent so that It could be charged to the
proper account.
It is stated that the police know who
the servant was who took the clam broth
to Mrs. Fleming's rooms, but they are
mute on this point and have ordered the
hotel people to give out no more Informa-
tion In the case. It Is known, though.
that the police have the order for the clam
broth, which Is proof of Its being left at
Mrs. Fleming's room, and it is said that
the order Is sighed by the B-ycaroold child
Grace.
The drug stores of Harlem have been
searched for a clerk who can recall a sole
of tartar emetic to Mrs. Fleming, but Po-
lice Captain Thompson of the West (inc
Hundred and Twenty-filth street station
said last night that this search had been
unsuccessful. The fact at the matter is
that tartar emetic can be bought in any
drug stme without a prescription, and is
commonly sold to adults who can give an
intelligent Idea of the purpose for which
they wish it. and hence it is very burrito
trace a particular sole Work in this line
will not be abandoned, though.

passed over the boy's abdomen. and his
death was almost instantaneous.‘ ,
The none of the Labor day collision had‘
switches explained to the luv mutiny
to the inquest on Tuesday evening next.
While returning from the scene of the Ila-
bor day accident the trolley car was pro-
ceeding slowly over the canal bridge,
when two boys were seen to climb up the
embankment at that point and dash
across the track in front of the car.
Some of those on the car noticed that
another boy, smaller than the others, also
came up the embankment. Coroner Wiley
says the boy for a moment seemed to be
dazed by the danger of his poo tion, and
that he then deliberately thre himself
under the car, going in at the space be-
tween the fender and the front truck.
The motormuu did apt see the boy, as
the front of the car had passed the youth
before he get fully up the embankment.
He heard the smashing of the boy's bones,
though, and stopped the car when it was
only three feet away from where the body
was lying.
It is described as a beam-ending scene
by those who saw it. Juror Danton fell
to the mood and wept like a baby, and
Vice President Morrissee of the electric
railroad, was so moved by the scene that
he went a“ ay and raised to ride on the
car. Others of the [1“th were horrified,
and could not be induced to look upon the
body of the child. One of the two boys
who crossed in front of the car was a
brother of the lad who was killtl, and he
witnessed the awful scene.
All those who saw the accident were
unanimously of the opinion that neither
the motcrman nor conductor was respon-
sible for the accident, and they wore not
arrested.
TH E DU RANT TRIAL.

SAN Fusscrsao, Sept. 5.——'!he trial of
Theodore Durant for the murder of
Blanche lament proceeded, and little.
seems to have been gained by the visit of
the judge and jury to the Emanuel Baptist
church, the scene of the crime.
Durant accompanied them, and by
Judge Murphy‘s direction (lillccr Russell,
who acted as guide, was purposely uncer-
tain in pointing out the dlflerent parts of
the church connected with the case. This
was done so that Durant might be led to
commit himself. He did not do so, how-
ever.
Throughout the inspection he remained
quite calm, and smiled as he was lcthback
