TTTE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. I I FRANK DEFENSE OPENS WITH ATTACK ON DR. HARRIS’ EVIDENCE. Dalton Corroborates Jim Conley’s Story of Women Calling at Pencil Factory OPINIONS AS 10 TIME OF GIRL'S DEATH GUESSES, IS OR. GUILDS' TESTIMONY Continued From Page 2. We don't want to argu® 1t. We Jus! want to be recorded aa objecting Judge Roan permitted all of the sample® to go In. Solicitor Dorsey asked for the bank book and the cash book of the Na tional Pencil Company. They had rot been secured. Dorsey—We will rest our case, any way. The State rested Its case exactly at 12 o’clock Dr. L. W. Childs, a prominent young surgeon of Atlanta, was the first wit ness called by the defense. Attorney Arnold questioned Dr. Childs. Q. What Is your occupation?—A. Surgery and general medicine Q Where did you graduate?—A University of Michigan in 1906. Q. Where did you practice?—A. I was first assistant at the Michigan University Hospital. Q. How long have you been in At lanta?—A. About five years. Q. A body is found at 3 o'clock In the morning. It is not embalmed un til 10 o’clock that morning It Is dug up nine days later and a cut is found In back of the head There is only a drop of blood found on the skull There was no pressure on the brain. Could a physician have said whether that blow produced unconsciousness? A. He might hazard a guess. He could not tell. Calls Opinion Mere Guess. Q. The presence of a drop of blood would have had nothing to do with it? A. Absolutely nothing. There was no pressure, you said. Q. No pressure at all.—A. Then Its effect was negligible. Q. Now is there any way for a doc tor telling definitely whether or not that blow caused unconsciousness?— A. I should say it would he a guess. Q. Is it possible to tell whether a wound or cut such as I have described with the appearance of blood was in flicted before or after death?—A. If it was Inflicted in from one to three hours after death It would have the appearance of having been inflicted just before death. Q. Would you say that such a wound as I have described could have been inflicted one hour after death?— A. It would practically he a guess to say so. Q. Would the fact that this body had been embalmed and buried for nine days add to the difficulties of making an examination or not?—A. It would greatly add to the difficul ties. Q. Have you ever heard of a case on record when an opinion on uncon sciousness and the length of time the person was unconscious before death was placed on what data we have?— A. Absolutely no. Blows Often Cause Death. Q. Have you heard of cases of blows on the head causing death without fracturing the skull?--A. Yes, I have se»-n several cases of sandbagging W'here the person would die of con cussion of the brain and there would only lie a slight swelling where the blow had been struck. Q Then there is absolutely no way of telling the exact result of a blow' on the head after a post-mortem held nine days after interment?- A. No. Q. What class of food does cab bage come in?—A. Carbohydrates Q. Are they considered hard to di gest?—A. As such they are not, but in cabbage the carbohydrate is mix ed with cellulose, a woody fiber on which the digestive Juices have prac tically no efTect, therefore, it is very hard. <J. Ix>ok at this sample (Arnold showed th® witness the cabbage taken from Mary Phagan's stomach). Was that well masticated?- A. Not very well. Q. Isn't it a fact that cooked cab bage is harder to digest than raw’ cabbage?—A. Yes; raw cabbage is the easiest of all forms of cabbage to digest. Cabbage in Digestive State. Q, What part does the saliva play? A It acts on the carbohydrates. Q. What part of the cabbage is the carbohydrates? A. Seven or eight per cent. Q. So saliva only affects that part of the cabbage?—A. Yes. Q. Does the stomach do anything about digesting cabbage?—A. The muscular effect the churning- might break it up to some extent. Q. So the Juices of the stomach in stead of digesting cabbage merely re tard it?- A. Yes. Q. Then where is cabbage really di- "Better Be Sate Than Sorry” It is far better to give I the Stomach, Liver and Bowels some help at the beginning than to keep j putting it off until sick- 1 ness overtakes you. Be wise, and keep HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS handy and take it prompt ly. It helps overcome all Stomaeh, Liver and Bowel His. also prevents Malaria, Fever and Ague. gested?—A In the small intestines. Q. How long would it take boiled cabbage to pass out of the stomach? A. About four and one-half hours. Q. Then w’hen it goes out of the stomach it is really undigested, is It not? A. Yes. It may pass out of the body entirely In the undigested form. Digestion Easily Retarded. Q. Are there not a great manv things that retard digestion?—A. Yes, the psychic causes fright, anger and sudden mental excitement—material ly retard It. Q. Would walking retard It?—A. Yes, if the walking was immediately after the meal, digestion would be re tarded. These other causes might totally stop digestion. Q. Isn’t It a fact that you might find substances in a stomach that had laid there quite a while and practically rio digestive action had begun?—A. Yes, If the psychic in fluence had taken place. y. Don't stomachs differ as much as minds?—A. Yes. To understand a stomach you must study it as an individual. Mr. Arnold held up n sample of cabbage taken from the Phag.i.n girl's stomach. Q. Would you hazard a guess that this cabbage had only been In a stom ach one half hour before death— I would not. y. Why?—A. For the reasons I have stated. The cause of the psychic in fluences—I know not of—that might have been brought to bear and be cause of the varying effects of stom achs on such a substance. Denies Accurate Opinions, y. Do you think a doctor couM give an accurate scientific opinion by making such a statement?—A. I do not. y. How long would you sny it was possible for cabbage like this to stay in the stomach?—A. I have seen cab bage less digested than that which had been in the stomach for twelve hours. y. When the process of digestion begins, it begins very slowly, doesn t it?—a. Yes, it is really indeterminate. It has not advanced very far when the food goes to the stomach. y. How long would it take wheat bread?—A. I would say about two and one-half hours. y. Then solids like cabbage and wheat bread would be at least two and one-naif hours passing out of the stomach, would they not?—A. Yes. At this point court was adjourned until 2 o’clock. 'Blow Would Discolor Eyes.’ Q. Please state whet Iter a bruise couid be inflicted over the ey e after death similar to a wound in life.—A. Yes, as much after two hours. y. Could a blow on the back of the head cause a discolored eye?—A. Yes, or both eyes. y. What becomes of that epithell um after death?—A. Before or after embalming? y. Would it be decomposed before ejnhalrning? A. It would. Solicitor Dorsey then took the wit ness. His brother, Dr. Rufus T. Dor sey. a prominent Atlanta physician, sat by the questioner and frequently coached him in his examination of the witness. y. How old are you?—A. 81. Q. Where have you lived?—A. Ann Arbor and Atlanta, y. How long have you practiced?— A. Seven years. y. What do you practice?—A. Sur gery and general medicine. y. Don’t most specialists confine themselves to one study and find their hands full? A. They learn more by branching out. y. Do you undertake to tell this Jury that digestion begins in the mouth?—A. Yes. y. 1 thought mastication was the office of the mouth? A. It is. y. Then doesn’t digestion begin as much when the food begins to cook as in the mouth? A. No; the diges tion begins when the salivary glands begin to yield their juices. y. Is a turnip of about the saem property as a cabbage?—A. Yes. y. Do you consider Dr. Crittenden, of Yale, an authority?'- A. Yes. y. Are you familiar with his table on the relative properties of food?— A. Yes. Differs With Authority. Q. If he says it takes about 3 1-2 hours to digest a cabbage and the same time for a turnip it is about right, is it not? A. I think he says that he is at variance with the other authorities. y. Then you are at variance with him?- -A. Yes. Q. Who is your authority? A. Dr. Peterson, an eminent medical expert and authority. Q In speaking of digestion of cab bage and turnips, you have as a standard, a normal stomach'’ A. Yes. y. How long after taking food into a stomach would ybu find pure hy drochloric acid?—A. 1 tis in the stom ach before food is taken in and you will And it there at any stage. Q. Do you mean to give this as your- opinion?—A. It would depend upon * he condition of the glands of the gastric memhranoe. y. I am speaking of a normal stom- aeh Are you familiar with the Ewald breakfast test? According to this test, how long would it be before you would find pure hydrochloric acid?— A It would depend on the glands. Q I am asking you about a normal stomach. Judge Warns Against Haste. Arnold objected—He does not give the witness time to answer. Judge Roan cautioned Dorsey re- | garding this. y. How much add would occur in i normal stomach one hour after the j Ewald breakfast test?—A. About 2 ; grams. - y Give me the amount in degrees. 1 A. That is essentially a question for a laboratory man. We don’t use those terms in general practice, y. Well, standard authorities use ; degrees -A It is essentially a labora tory test and 1 would prefer not to answer Q. Well.rt.if you can’t answer it l will try W*u on something else. Is this man Hemeter an authority?—A. If he gives any tables he is. y. Do you know of him?—A. I have heard of him. y. Is he a standard?—A. Yes. y. I want you to give this Jury the acidity of an Ewald test breakfast "in- hour ifttr taking. A That is a question for a laboratory man. y. Well, if you can’t that I will ask you something else. Can you give me the percentages of the gastric juices in digestion? A. No, that is in a branch that is seldom taught. y. Don’t you know that they teach that as one of the fundamental prin ciples of medicine?—A. I take excep tion with you on that. y. Can you tell me the functions of the gastric juices—A. Yes. Dr. Childs then gave an extensive scientific explanation, after which Dorsey propounded a long hypotheti cal question, to bring out. If possible, an admission that the cabbage might not have been in the stomach more than an hour. Dr. Childs replied that it would Vie the wildest guess to try and place the time within two hours. y. I will get you to tell the jury why?—A. I will cite a case that came to my attention when cabbage was taken from a stomach after twelve hours. Arnold Protests «t Mirth. Q. I am speaking of a normal stom ach.—A. That might have been a normal stomach. y. Well, it certainly would not have been normal if it was that diseased, so diseased the cabbage had to be taken from it.—A. The structure was normal. y. Will you tell the Jury that the juices were normal? A. No. Dorsey remarked: “Why, of course not,” and there was a ripple of laugh ter In the courtroom when Attorney Arnold jumped to his feet to object to the Solicitor’s comment. “Your honor,’’ Arnold said, “that laughter will have to cease. There is a bunch of hoodlums back there who laugh at my friend’s witticisms.’’ Judge Roan—You will have to keep order in the courtroom, Mr. Sheriff. y. What is a normal stomach—A. A normal stomach is one that is un der normal conditions will digest a normal amount of food in a normally accepted time. Q. Did you ever see any experi ments except in that case where you made a man vomit?—A. No, I am not quoting myself. Scott Called to Stand. Q. If a little girl were found six teen to twenty hours after she was murdered witli a moist blood spot on her hair, with a scar on the back of her head, deep indentations in her neck, her tongue out, her nails blue, what would you say caused her death? - -A. I would certainly say it was not the blow on the head. The witness was excused. Harry Scott, the Pinkerton detec tive employed by the National Pencil Company, who has already appeared as a witness for the prosecution, was called by the defense. Attorney Ros ser questioned him. y. Mr. Scott, you knew on Monday after the crime that Mrs. Arthur White, saw a negro near tn« ata r ^«v on the Saturday before?—A. Yes. sir. y.
