EXAMINATION OF BBBGFXIiD.
Conslderabio Interest Taken in The Case
: i-;''::i-'-'fcy "Tnie People.--'
Justice Schutz'. . court room was filled
to eufibcajtiori last n5ght at 7 :30, by an
ansjous crowd to listen to. the testimony
taken in the.caae of the state of Oregon
against Wm. Bergfield, accused of the
poisoning' of his - mother-in-law,; Mrs.
Matilda' Rogers.
The prosecution opened by calling Dr.
Hollister, the physician who had been
called to attend deceased on the,, morn
ing of her death. .He reached the house
about 6 o'clock, or a little before, and
found the woman dead.' There were no
unusual appearances to indicate that
death had resulted from poisoning. Con
siderable time was taken up by questions
relative to the action of poisons on the
human system. Conversations between
witness and Mr. and Mrs. Bergfeld, re
garding the funeral . were detailed ; and
the condition of the body was described,
as the witness found it. Tbere was
nothing apparent by which he could tell
the cause of death, and all that he knew
respecting the case he had learned from
Mrs. Bergfeld.- It was ascertained that
the poison Rough on Rats, and some
laudanum, was in the bouse. Witness
sent an undertaker to the house by re
quest of Bergfelfl. No further: instruc
tions. ' There was no glass nor nothing
in the room to show that deceased had
taken a dose of any nature. No signs of
frothing at the mouth. ' Body appeared
natural for a corpse. Telegrams and
messages were prepared to notify friends
at a distance of the death. The time
necessary to keep the body until these
could arrive was discussed. Conditions
of the stomach in cases of poison were
explained by witness. Had never heard
of a case of death from taking chloride
of zinc.
D..L. Cates was called by the prosecu
tion. . Witness had, a. .conversation with
defendant on the 'street , the 'day of the
funeral. In his capacity as sheriff he
had previously served some papers on
deceased, and Mr. and Mrs. Bergfeld, in
a suit of the First National bank. Mrs.
era told him that she knew . noth
ing bi the c&usV- of action ;. that she
waa living in dread of Bergfeld ; that he
had, threatened, her life; that he had
drawra revolver pn her son, etc.. These
fhtng8 vithess" tpW to. defendant that
day ; defendani said if deceased said she
didn't know ;of the suit;, she .was a
old liar'; said his" family was wealthy
and would prosecute any one circulating
damaging reports about his character.
Told the coroner what . Mrs. Rogers had
saia, ana iota otners who asKea mm
about it.
Joseph Nitschke was called by. prose
cution'.'' ' Arrived at the house at 7 :30 a.
m. as undertaker, lound the body in
the bed, covered over, and a handker
chief over the head and under the face
to keep the chin in place. 'After talking
with Mr. and Mrs. Bergfeld about keep
ing the body" four or five days, proceeded
with an assistant to em halm ' and pre
pare the body for keeping it. Used 3
quarts of embalming preparation. One
qm wa4 placed Iri the "stomach . " Found
the corpse natural ; no signs of froth at
the mouth; arms and legs natural or a
corpse.' "jUad taSeh a sample of the fluid
from' he same bottle need that day and
gave it to the coroner. The fluid comes
in bulk, 5 gallon kegs, and is drawn off
in pottles foj-use , V; ..,;,
After the testimony of this witness
had been taken court adjourned until 9

The sight of a large gray wolf disap
pearing behind a bank of enow : recalled
to minds the stories of George Ken nan's
Siberian adventures., But . before we
had gone far, we heard the sounds of a
human voice, as if it came from the
very clouds above us. Looking up we
saw on the extreme summit the minute
forms of the two climbers who had left
Cloud Cap Inn earlv that morning.' We
shouted to them and received answers
from their lofty position eorae 2,000 feet

On returning to the Inn. supper was
already prepared for us, and we soon
succeeded in overcoming the almost
ravenous appetite causedvby our climb.
