Solicitor Dorsey went into a detail ed cross-examination as to the possi bilities of assault upon the Phaaan girl. The questions were all hypo thetical and Dr. Westmoreland’s opin ion was that in such cases no un natural violence was done. Further ri plies along this line were In favor of Frank. Q. Assuming that It takes cabbage four hours to digest In the normal stomach, could you look at It and tell how long It had been there?—A. No. Q. Doesn't the medical world agree that It takes a certain length of time to digest certain food?—A. Yes. That is the result of hundreds of experi ments Q. Does the medical world agree that it takes four hous to digest cabbage?- -A. Four or five. Q Who gives five hours, doctor? A It Is generally accepted to be be tween four and five. Q. Haven't they laid down the dif ferent stages of digestion?—A. Not absolutely Says He Put Harris on Board. Q. Hasn't this man Hemeter laid down all the stages of digestion?—A. No. He will tell you himself that his rules are not infallible Q What Is the length of time be fore you will find free hydrochloric acid?—A. There is no way of telling. y Well, what is the generally ac cepted theory?—A. About 30 minutes. Q. In cabbage and wheat bread, would you expect to find It sooner or later?—A. That would depend upon the mastication. y If we found 32 degrees of hydro chloric acid in the stomach, how long would you pay It had been there?— A. I could not say. Q. Have you anv personal feeling toward Dr. Harris?—A. I have none, one way or the other. Q. You were on the State Hoard of Health with Dr. Harris?—A. Yes, I put him there. Q. Is he still there?—A. Yes. y. Were you president of the Col lege of Physicians and Surgeons when he was given a chair there?—A. Yes. y. What did he do?—A. He was the pathologist. Arnold took the witneas y. Will yqu tell the Jury the cause of your difficulty with Harris?—A. I preferred charges of scientific dishon esty against him. He was not re moved by the board so I resigned. Says They Had No Row. Q. Whatever row or fuss you had has had nothing whatever to do with your testimony?—A. I never had any row with him. I preferred charges against him. The State Board of Health tried him and found him guil ty. They did not see fit to remove him, so I resigned as president of the board. , , , , Q. Which, from the standpoint of common sense, would be the most r e- liable, a visual and digital exam ination for violence, or a microscopic examination?—A. In post mortem ex aminations It Is often the case that abrasions are overlooked. Dorsev took the witness, y. Blood when fresh Is easy to wipe off If you have water, isn't It?—A. Blood is a very penetrating stain. Q. How many doctors arc there on the State Board of Health?—A. Twelve with the secretary. Dr Westmoreland was then ex cused and Dr. John C. Olmstead was called. Attorney Arnold questioned h frri. Q. How Ion* have you been prac ticing and where did you graduate?— A. I have been practicing 28 years and graduated at the University of Virginia and the University of New York. Q. Where did you practice?—A. In a new York hospital and then in At lanta. Attorney Arnold propounded his hypothetical question on the cut on the back of the head and received the answer that Dr. Harris’ opinion was about as wild a guess as could be made. Q. Could such a wound as I have described to you as appearing on the back of the head have been in ti icted after death?—A. Yes if It was before the blood congealed. Can't Tell Time of Death. Q. Could such a blow us I have de scribed. black and swollen, have been indicted on the eye after death?—A. It might. Q. Look at this cabbage. After a chemical analysis and the finding of 32 degrees of acidity, could you de termine with any degree of certainty how long It had been In the stomach before death? A. No, I don’t think there is any authority, certainly not in English, which assigns to the stomach any quality of accurately determining the time of death. Q. Suppose cabbage isn’t chewed like that (pointing to one of the sam ples which had been well masticated), might it not lodge in the stomach?— A. Yes. Q. How long might It stay in the stomach without being further di gested?—A. It might stay ten or twelve hours Q. To attempt to state within ten or fifteen minutes when death occur red by the condition of this cabbage— would you consider that a wild guess? —A. Too wild to be characterized. Mr Arnold put the usual question to obtain an opinion from the witness as to whether Mary Phagan was as saulted. The answer was that indica tions were that no unnatural vio lence was present. Dr. Olmstead said that Dr Harris’ surmise that violence had been done the girl immediately before death was the most extraordinary surmise that he had ever heard Tells Time of Digestion. Dorsey took the witness Q. The medical w T orld recognizes that you can determine the degree and time it takes for the digestion of wheat bread, doesn't it?—A. Yes. aft er accurate experiments with :a known as a test breakfast, from two to two and one-half hours Q. A table has been compiled show ing how long it takes to digest va rious articles, hasn’t it?—A Yes. Q. The table states it takes four hours to digest « abbage, doesnSt It? —A. The table I saw put cabbage at four and one-half hours. Q. What kind of change would you expect on cabbage an bread within thirty mimites?—A. It would depend on the character and quality of fh«* food. Deputy Hunting Scalp Of Juror Ventriloquist. Pig Bob Deavors, Deputy Sheriff in charge of the Frank trial Jury, marched to the courtroom Monday morning with an aching head and a grim determination to get even with Juror A. H. Henslee, whose elusive voice piloted him against a bedpost late Sunday evening. Henslee Is a ventriloquist of no mean ability, and when the Jury has been locked up Sunday his talent has afforded the principal pastime. Yes terday he worked on Deavors, the deputy. He had Bob’s wlf P railing lo him from the street, the hall door and finally from the door leading into another room. It was through this last door that Deavors broke and encountered the head of a bed with the full weight of bis big frame. An impromptu piano concert Sun day afternoon by Juror F. E. Win- burn, a stroll under guard late Sun day evening and the feats of ventrilo quism broke the monotony of what would have been a listless day.
