Polo Grounds New York, Oct. 25.
'
•—Long before the gates were open
ed this morning there was a fair
crowd outside the bleacher en
trances, though not so nearly large
as on previous days. New York en
thusiasm has dwindled to almost
nothing, as a result of the three
straight victories of the Athletics
and the early prospects were against,
a record breaking crowd.
The cool weather too was respon
sible in a large measure in keeping
away the early throng. A large
force of men had been engaged on
the diamond and outfleld ever since
the rains had stopped and had work
ed wonders in getting it into shape.
The Polo Grounds are naturally
well drained and the bright sun,
brisk winds and the work of the
ground keepers have dried them out
so that fast haseball was assured.
I.otig before J. Franklin Baker
and the other young men who form
ed the incidental Ingredients of
Connie Mack's ball team, had left
their down town hotel, tfie Giants
(the name Is a handovers from sea
sons gone by) were out on At. John
T. Brush's fenced-in lot practicing,
tossing, ontching and batting the
ball, together with several other lit
tle trlcki Incidental to the playing
of th/ national fame. Manager Mc
Graw, displaying all the gentle man
nerists of a longshoreman boss, was
very much on the job, strewing ad
vice and other hints to his players
whu are note almost In "the last
ditch."

James B. McNamara continues, that
that 1b merely a prelude of an at
tempt op the part of the Bruns De
tective agency to prove the existence
of an inner circle within the Ameri
can Federation of Labor which coun
tenances and finances acts of vio
lence. Several times today Attorney
Darrow, while examining veniremen,
demanded whether they considered
labor laders a lawless element who
advocatd violence in bringing about
acquiescence by their demands of
employers.
This question, slightly changed in
a score of wafs, has been aBked In
dividual Jurors and the record Is al
ready clogged with it, despite the
strenuous effort on the part of Judge
Bordwell and District Attorney Fred
ericks to prevent It. The real rea
son became apparent when It was
learned that District Attorney Fred
ericks is studying the transcript of
the grand jury presentation at In
dianapolis. Te has summoned all
the witnesses who testified there to
testify in this case where that Is
possible. The defense is determined
to prevent this and will raise the
question of materiality.

2ND AUTOPSY
IS PERFORMEDj
Body of Miss Avis Linneil
Is Again Examined.
! Ipeciul by United Press Wtr».
Boston, Mass., Oct. 25.—A second
autopsy was made today on the body
of Miss Avis Linneil. A search of
the girl's bathrobe failed to disclose
any vial or paper which might have
contained the cyanide of potassium
which the medical authorities de
clare positively caused her death.
The second autopsy today was the
third time the girl's body has been
exa ined. The first was an autopsy
performed after the finding of her
body In the bathroom of the Y. W.
C. A. The second examination of
her body was made last night, when
the girl's coffin, shippeo back from
the grave yard at Hyannis, was op
ened and the bathrobe searched.
The third examination was made
when the s cond autopsy was per
formed this morning only after Po
lice Captain Ainsless Armstrong,
head of the bureau of criminal in
vestigation, had demanded it.
Armstrong asserted emphatically
that he was not satisfied with the
haphazard manner in which the
first autopsy had been made. What
the second will rev.al Is not yet
known. All the Internal organs of
the girl were removed and probably
will be sent to a laboratory at Har
vard for a quantltat've as well as
qualitative analysis, so that the
chemists may ascertain exactly J ow
much cyanide she took and of what
grade it was.
The midnight opening of the cof
fin was gruesome. It was done to
prevent the defense from securing
an injunction this morning. Sev

(his city, took the stand as an in
sanity expert and testified he had
visited the county jail on three oc
casions to examine Benl. He tes
tified he had found the prisoner de
plorably weak, mentally and he had
learned the prisoner had been ?n the
habit of drinking large quantities of
beer and whiskey every night, be
fore the allged murder took placu.
Dr. Rice said this indulgence had
weakened the man's stomach and
effected his brain.
Dr. Rice and Prosecutor Booraein
lad a lively tilt on one occasion, but
Justice Bergen overruled the ques
tions and answers and ordered the
state's tfaunsel to push the eas« with
all possible speed. The justice- stfti-trtl •
the case must be completed b\ tti

Lewis Hlldebrand. warden at Ota

Dr. William E. Ramsay, of Perth

he vlalted Beni In the latter's ceil
Sunday and Monday and believed
hhn to be an epileptic. Dr. Ramsay
said Beni could have killed the me!!

Dr. A. Li. Smith, of this city, who

It is probably the first time a
