There are other breeds, however, which
are said to be desirable to rear for the

breeds of fowls are of this number, but
this we very much doubt, as their flesh
lacks the buttery golden color that at
tracts the eye of the epicure. They may
prove valuable as egg producers, but
they lack many good qualities us a ta-

OF late years have become so subject TO

OF rearing them proiitably for market

As egg producers the Hamburgs are
claimed to stand at the head of tho list.
This claim we are prepared to dispute,
for, as winter layers, we find that the

REFUSE TO ANSWER
10 Said Eula Wray a Hundred Times
Today.
SHE DECLINES TO DEP0sf.
Ter Replies Taken In Short Bond to
BE Transcribed and Referred 10
the District C0uri.

"WSre you in Salt Lake in Mny OF
bet ysal?
add you register at the Cullen
h-tel in this city?"
"Did you come town IF m the Park
on the train with Mr.. Kearn 2"
These and scores of other adroitly
put questions, many of them much
more suggestive, were propouuted this
forenoon to Mics Eula Wray the
young woman who Is playing the
principal role In the Kesrns seduction
and blsckmail case, before Attorney
Ii. J. Dlnniny.
To each interrogation she senteu-
tiously and emphatically said ss she
patted and petieu the fatherless infant
who reposed III her lap, 81 refuse to
answer.n
She had been 60 instructed by her
attorney, Morris Sommer, anu right
well did she fellow out bis orders. 1t
was clearly apparent from the first
that counsel for Mr.. Kearns-At,or-
neys Dickson and Varjan-were In
tent upon putting her through severe
course Of examination. Leading quss-
tions occasionally caused her to make
n admissions she wished 10 avoid. For
instance, when she was asked why che
declined to respond TO questions. she
would say, ~ refuse to answer" Inn
mediately Mr.. Varisn would follow up
the advantage which he had lust pro.
vided by further asking, "Beeause
you are afraid OF discriminating your
seli2"
Sometimes Mics Wray would answer
ahltmatively, bnt most frequently she
would repeat the familiar and safer
words, ~ refuse to answer" and this
she probably did no less than hundred
times.
Questions, and answers too, 30 far as
given, were taken down In short hand
by q stenographer furnished by Mr..
Kesrne's attorneys, and on agreement
of cou nsel on either side 1t was agreed
that none Of the expense incidental
thereto would have to TO borne by
Mise Wray. The transcript, when
written out, will be sent to the district
court for use before that tribunal.

NO MISSION FOR FISHBACK.
The Consulates in Cuba Not to b,
Inspected.

TIE report that Consul General Lee is
about to inspect all the consulates in Cuba
is declared by State Department officials
to be a grOundless fabrication. The state
meut that one G.. ". Fishbacg would ac-
company Gen. Lee is exploded in stu
more emphatic terms.
1t is explained that Gen. Lee could
not leave Havana now if he wished for
various reasons. He has no authority to
leave, he cannot reach all the consulateS
now, on account of the rainy season, the
destruction of railroads in some sections,
and for d number Of other good reasons,
any one of which would suffice.
Regarding the frequently recurring Fish
back rumer, it is learned that he would
be about the last man to be selected for
duty in Cuba requiring discretion, If either
Commissioner Calhoun. whom he attended
during the Ruiz Investigation, were con-
suited, or If Judge Days advice were
