GEORGETOWN, May 13-The pre- liminary hearing began this morning. The first witness this morning was D,-_ Fraser (sworn)-I have lived at jiuniegue for about six years. I came into the McGee family on April 12th. Called in by Ml‘. Cassldy,fath- .|r of the prisoner. I arrived about |p_ m. There was one child then dead, Thomas, aged llv. 'l'he other four were in the house sick, three "ru in bed. Johnnie was there but not sick. None of them were undress- gd. The dead child was very calm und peaceful. He had his day clothes on. It was sick about twelve hours. The sick mics were: Louis, aged 13; Peillie, 12; George, 8, and Bridget, shout 6. Louis was cold and his face pale. igeve him a dose of strychnine. I did not see him for a little over one licur after that. George was put to bed. He got a good deal worse. His gin .got cold and ] noticed he had file some bluish tint Louis had. I iave him some tablets. Penzie appeared all right. She said lhe had been sick hilt felt better. Shu said she had been vomiting. She was quite strong. Bridget seemed all right only for her head. The mother said Bridget did not fake her supper but tbeyother child- ren had. Tile mother said that John- nie had been away. down to her brothers I observed they all had a hiuish look. I was there about one hour and a half. I asked' Mrs. McGee what the children had been eating to cause their illness. She said they had corn-_ meal for their supper and herring for dinner. Sometimes I thought she showed emotion and at other times lho didn't. At times she seemed kind ni dazed. Three of the children vomlted while lwas thcrr. I looked to me like wat! u."1»ouis vomlted a yellowish sub- liauce. After I gave him sn emetlc
-he vomited again. .

On the way home I felt uneasy about thc condition of the children and I mel, DF- Mciutyre within s. mile of Mon. tague and asked him to call in and see them. I discussed their condition with him Bild he agreed to call about 2 oclock in the morning. Dr. Mel". tyre came home and- carne'to my door und made the report and then I went to McGee s, arriving at nearly four a. m. Loliis and Bridget were dead when I arrived, Bridget was the least sick at first, Pansy was nearly dead. George was very sick. Pansy was cold, her pulse was soft, hcr eyes quite bright. She had no headache; she did not complain of any pain; she was still in her day clothes, At times she would be a little restless. She vomiterl just before I left. - It was kind of a soapisdi substance with a greenish cilrd. George seemed fevm-_ ish. I gave him strychnine and othur ,medicine and then I noticed about him what I did not notice about the other children that when I went to sive him his medicine he appeared tn be in a condition of stupor. His pulse was very strong; he was very restless; appearing to he suffering at times. He drank a. good deal of water; they would always drink the water when given to them in any quantity..

IMPROPER RIGCOIIDB
OF MAR.`iIAG'E FILED.
WI-ll'l‘E PLAINS, N. Y., May 11-
Iu copying the contents of marriage certificates in the Westchester County Clerl¢‘s_olTice here it developed to-day that many of the papers were impro- perly filled out by clergyman. Some certificates are incomplete and it will be necessary for odiciating clergy- men to make additions to the papers Others are almost illegible. In some instances churches are named hut the State is omitted. ‘
There is a possibility that some of
tho marriages will be attacked as ill- egal. »Yonkers, Mount Vernon and New Rochelle certificates say the marriage was performed in a certain church in Westchester county, omitt- ing the name of the city nr village. There are two Sv.. Marys in Yonkers and several throughout the county.
CAPE TORMENTINE
~ l.\ILWAY STRIKE.
HACKVILLE. N, B., May 13-The
strike on thc Care Tormentino Rail- way still continues and the men feel increasingly confident of ultimate success.
The men were very much cheered
this inorn-ing when they found that the regular passenger and mail train due to leave Sackvllle for the round trip to Cape Tormentine and return was canoelled.l This cancellation, however, -caused, much inconvenience to u.any people. The Management. of the Railway is making futile-efforts to keep the freight traffic moving by utilizing the regular passenger train to -do freight work between Sack- ville and Cape Tormentine. This means that the passengers have to wait in the car the considerable por- tion of an hour at many of the sid- ings, while the passenger locomo- tive is shunting out cars. As a result of these delays, the total aggregate is three or four hours on a 'trlD. this causing passengers co miss their through connections with the 1.0. R. trains.
