THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

SENSATION.

Annie,Crisp, aunt of the deceased, testified:"On Thursday, Feb. 13, the deceased said to me: 'Auutie, Dr. Haynes has caueed this and he persuaded me to have it done.' I knew she was pregnant about two months ago. When I saw her last Thursday she was in a bad condition. She was in bed. She said Haynes had used instruments on her and had given her poisonous medicine. It was on Tuesday, Febinary 3rd, tbat tbe child W8s born. It was ot about four months duration. The child lived five minutes. Her mother said to me when 1 was looking at the child: *D.i you want to see the child While I was looking at it Haynes said: 'Burn tbe thing and doni't show it to everybody.' Laura told me she went to Haynes' Office and he advised ber to have it done. She told nue four or five years Bgo that Haynes was her eeducer. She said the abortion took place at Haynes* office. The confinement took place at her own home.1'

It is said Jack Filer is tbe father of the cMld and that Dr. H&ynes has possession ot the body. Dr. Moorhead will hold a postmortem this evening. The affair has caused a greet sensation.

From Mcndaye Daily.

The Tweedy abortion case whxh came to light Saturday by the death of the unfortunate seventeen year old girl victim haSksuperceded the' Trump murder in public Interest, at least for the present. Both Dr. David Hanes, who is charged with performing the operation, and Jack Filer, for procuring it, have been placed in jail on charges of murder. The Co: oner finished his examination ol witnesses Saturday evening and the testimony presents a revolting picture o$ sin and shame. Tbe post-mortem lasted until late Saturday night under the guidance of Dr. Moorhead, assisted by a corps ct able phvsicieos, and they make a joint report that the girl's death was due to inflammation caused by abortion. Th« testimony taken by tbe Coroner, in addition to that published in Saturday's GAZB'HE, is as follows:

MRS. ANNA 8HBARER TESTIFIES. She said: I live at Third and Mulberry. I follow housekeeping. I had heard some talk of tbe condition of tbe deceased some two months ago. I heard Mrs. Crisp, her aunt, say tbat tbe deceased intended to let nature take her course. I was called to sit up with Laura on Monday and Tuesday, th** 2nd aud 3rd of February. Nothing occurred till 5 A Wednesday, when tbe child was bom. No one was present but her n^otber and myself. On Tuesday night there were tour doctors present. Dr. Hanes and Gilmore came first tbe early part of the night. Afttr they left we sent for Drs. Stewart and George Crapo. When 1 came to tbe house on Tuesday night Dr. Hanes was already there. He

and made an excuse, saying he wanted to go to hid effloe and would not be gone longer than an hour, tie casie b&ck in three-quarters ot an hour and brought Dr. Gilmore v.Kh him. Dr. Gilmore made an ex?uiu:-aiion and then fraid to Dr. Hanes: "f don't think this cuse requires two doctors. I'll go." Dr. Gilmore th»!tt left. Dr. Hanes at our request stayed lor about aw hour, and be th?n cxcused himself. He said he had a esse ol sickness attend. 1 tbiok he said it was at home. Shortly after Dr. Hanes lett the deceased was taken worse and then it was proposed amongst us tbat we sand for another doctor and see what he would say. Edvrard Vaik went for Dr. Stewart, who came, but would not make an examination until anotaer doctor was present. Dr. Stewart asked us who we wanted, and Dr. Crapo was called. When the two doctors met

DR. 8THWAI1T

testified: "I was uiQmoned to the Twoedys on the morning of Feb. 4ih. Laura Tweedy told me that Dr. Hants was trying to procure an abortion on

her. I refused to have anything to do With the caso until some other physician W8S called. Dr. Crapo and myself both decided that it was impossible to prevent miscarriage. About 0 o'clock I was called again. I found Dr. Hanes at the house. The deceased was in great misery and was screaming. Not befog able to

et Dr. Crapo, I telephoned for Dr. Mcwho came, and we loucd that in the meantime the deceased had been delivered of a child. We ircre shown tbe ch'ld by Mrs. Tweedy. It was dead, but she said it was alive when born.

MBS. MARTTWEEDT

testified that she was the mother the decuased. Her testimony is mainly corroborative of the others. She said Dr. Haues called three times after the other doctors got into the case and that the last time he called was ou tbe morning Laura died Just before she died. She testified that John Filer acknonlegtd that he was the fathez of the child.

A DISTRACTED HOUSEHOLD. A GAZETTE reporter called at the Tweedy residence this moruog. The body fay In the front room, not yet in a coffin. Mrs. Tweedy, her other daughter, aged 12, and a few neighboring women were in aback room. Evidence of poverty was on all hands. Mrs. Tweedy said the funeral would take place at 4 p. M. to-day. She said the article scandalising her family in yesterday morning's paper was infamous. She led the way to another room, next to the'one where the corpse lay, in which her husb8nd is dying from consumption. He wes very weak and he spoke with difficulty. His eyes were sunk away back in his head and he seemed to be in the last stage of the dread disease,

MRS. TWEEDY DENIES.

Mrs. Tweedy oried as sho denied the story tbat she led her daughter to the pathway of sin. She said it was not true that she and her daughter had ever been taken out ot a Fourth street beer garden last summer and lectured at the office ot the Caief of Police. She said they had a hard time getting aUng this winter, aff ber husband was unable to work, and these ports in the papers would make ii stilt harder for them to receive assistance. She said it it was not for the little pension her husband got she did not know what they would do. "Laura was a good girl," said Mrs. Tweedy crying, "and I love her as only a mother can."

FORMERLY THE OSGOOD PLACE. The bouse where tbe Tweedy's live is the north halt ot a double house. Years aqo it was a notorious bagnio kept by Jennie Qfgood. She occupied tbe whole house. One night a prominent young man of this city went there intoxicated •ind stayed all night. He was found dead in bed the next morning from heart disease.

THE TWO PRISONERS.

Dr. Hanes has lived here a number oi years. He is not in good repute among iLe regular physicians, who legard him as a quack. He has a wife and family, his oldest daughter,a very estimable girl, going to the High school. They have nearly always lived in the southern part of the city. Dr. Hanes will say noth ing in regard to the affair.

Jack Filer is a rolling mill hand. He is a happy-go-lucky kind of fellow, who probably doesn't appreciate the seriousness of his position. He is a tall, muscular WKow. Hehasa way of squinting bis eye when he talks, and he has figured in police courts more than once.

Fro* Tuesday's Daily.

The funeral of Laura Tweedy, the victim in the recent abortion case, took place yesterday from the home of her parents on north Second street. About twenty persons were present in the room during the services. All but two were females, and the majority ol them were well known women ot the town. Rev. H. O. Breecen preached the funeral sermon. He spoke about twenty minutes. He took as his text: "Set thy household in order for thou shalt die end not live." Rev. Breeden dwelt on the necessity of persons on this earth preparing themselves for the death, that may call them at any moment. He said he believed the dead girl was more sinned against tnan sinning. She was beyond reach no w, but he had compassion and sympathy tor her and execration and de nunciation of those that led the y«*ung girl to her terrible fate. He urged his hearers to set their households in order so they would be prepared to go before the great tribunal when called. All those present were moved to tears. John Tweedy, father of the girl, was too sick with consumption to assist in the funeral services.

The Coroner has not yet closed the inquest in the case. The doctors are to vet submit a repoit of their conclusions. 1 he data for tbe joint report tbat will be made is in the possession of Dr. John R. Crapo.

The prisoners cannot be tried under this case for murder. There is a special statute for such offense*. The punish' ment is not less than two noi more than fourteen years.

From Wednesdays Dally.

At 3 P. M. to day Jack Filer, who was arrested in connection with the Tweedy aboition case, was released on his own reoognizarv by an order from the Coroner, Filer's seven year old child having died his morning. There is no testimony against Filer of any conscquencc and this order of release virtually settles the matter ».- far as is concerned. There is no proof tbat Filer had anything to do with procuring the operatioa on the victim.
