Valet Jones Confused at Beginning OF
Cross-Examination.

The sixth week of the trial of Albert -
Patrick for the murder Of William NJ
Rice was begun in New York yesterday.
Charles Jones. the valet Of Mr. Rice. con-
tinued his testimony.
The direct examination Of Jones was con-
cluded during the afternoon and the wit
ness was turned over TO the deIehse Iol
cross-examination.
The recorder refused to admit the check
books Of Mr.. Rice to show certain blank
stubs, in corroboration of Jones' testimony
that he had given Patrick blank checks.
Jones said Patrick had told him some
will, especially Jones and Dr. Currie. but
that they would be provided for. jones
then described his arrest.
Mr. Osborne asked Jones what he said to
Patrick before he talked with his lawyer
about the case.
II asked Patrick what should say to the
lawyer" Jones said, "and Patrick told me
I might tell him a murder had been COM
mitted. but not to mention his name in
connection with 1t. I told him l would
not confess the murder unless 1 could tell
all the facts connected with it.
Did you and Patrick ever talk Of sui

If had any way to do it. Patrick said he
would do the same; that we should both

Patrick told me he had knife and some
oxalic acid in his cell. Next day Patrick
gave me small knife. About 4 o'clock in
the morning I took the knife and tried to
cut my throat. / found the artery on the
right side and cut at 1t a dozen times.

Jones then showed to the jury the wound
he had inflicted on himself. He told OF

many interviews he had with Mr.. Osborne
and Captain Baker after he had decided
to turn states evidence.
This completed his examination by Mr.
Osborne and the witness was turned over
to the defense for rcross-examination.
In reply to Mr.. Moore, counsel for Pat
rick, Jones told Of his three years employ
ment by Mr.. Rice. He said that since May
8, 1901, he had been living at a boarding
house; had been out walking almost every
day; had dinner at a restaurant with wine
and visited some theaters or other place
of amusement. He said for the past two
months he had seen the district attorney
daily.
Jones had testified on the direct examina-
ton that he left blank pages in Mr.. Rice $
correspondence book, intending to fill the
spaces with the letters Patrick was to
claim he received from Mr. Rice. Confront
ed with the correspondence book by Mr..
Moore, he could not find the spaces left.
One space occurred between two entries
in Mr.. Rices handwriting.
Did Mr.. Rice leave that space for you
to enter forged letter." Mr. Moore asked.
Was he party to the conspiracy between
you and Patrick?"
Il can't answer two questions at once"

PRINCE WANTS RAaTIME MUSIC.
Chicago Musicians Shocked by His
New Musical Whim.

A special to the New York World from
Chicago yesterday says: The Chicago re-
ception committee has been notified from
Washington that Prince Henry would be
pleased to hear plantation music at the
balm other words, ragtime. This request
has caused a new arrangement of the music
program. Strauss, Wagner and the classics
Lady LOU" cakewalks. and other things
in the same, line have been substituted.
The musicians are shocked.
Zach, lieber! What's the use? If Henry Of
Prussia wants ragtime, then let him have
it, but I'll bet you the stories about the
prince wanting his FIJI Of ragtime music are
newspaper yarns-crazy newspaper dreams.
thus picturesquely, Johnnie Hand, Chica-
go's pioneer orchestra leader, admitted in
the next breath that may be the prince was
right, for hadn't he heard "Whistling
Rube' in Shanghai and ELI Green's Cake
walk" within the music halls Of Berlin?

DIR. HUNTINaToN's LECTURE.
Discusses the Apostles Greed Before
Churchman'S League.


Rev. VIM. r. Huntington, DID,, rector OF
Grace Episcopal Church. New York city,
lectured at the Church OF the Epiphany
last night. This was the second lecture In
the Lenten series provided by the Church
mans League of Washington diocese, and
notwithstanding the rain and generally un-
pleasant condition of the weather the au-
filled.
DR.. Huntington's theme was The Apos-
tolic Creed" the special topics considered
being Faith and Life, Greed and Char
acter;" the scriptural reference was the
fourteenth verse of the eleventh chapter
of Acts. He said words have been at q
discount In recent years means of SAL
walton, and only the superstitious now be-
lieve in the power of words alone to save.
The value Of words as means of grace Is
limited to their power to call up the imags
of Christ, His acts and character.
DR.. Huntington spoke Of the falling Off
in the quality of the ministry and the dis
inclination of the youth to enter the work.
He said, in his opinion. it was not sordid
motives of worldly profit that kept the
bright young men from entering the min
istry but the barrier was their honest
scruples as to what they were expected 10
believe and teach. He urged upon the
Episcopal Church to make it plain that its
test Of doctrinal fitness for entrance into
These Tuesday evening lectures are
arousing considerable interest in the
Churchman's League and among members
of the Episcopal Church, and 1t Is likely the
series will be published in book form and
preserved at the conclusion Of the course.

1T PLEAsEs THE GERMANS.
The Cordial Greeting Extended t.
Prince Henry Here.

A dispatch from Berlin yesterday says:
All day long crowds stared at the portraits
Of President Roosevelt and Prince Henry
which hung side by side in front Of news
paper office on "Unter den Linden" Part
Of the time the crowd was so dense that the
police had to clear the way for traffic.
Emperor William, who with the empress
drove by the newspaper office this after
noon, noticed the portraits and saluted
small American flag above them. Upon
perceiving this the assembled crowd ap-
plauded. The Germans are slowly working
up to animation over the reception In the
United States to Prince Henry, and are
glowing with good feeling toward America.
Newspapers that never before received spe-
cial cablegrams from the United States are
now publishing such messages. One editor
remarked that the entire German press
would be without dividends this year, and
expressed the hope that nothing else OF
equal interest would happen on the other
side of the Atlantic for five years to come.
All the correspondents In the United
States for German newspapers agree upon
the warmth Of the reception to Prince
Henry by President Roosevelt, by the
American officials, by the crowds and by
the newspapers AS an instance of this. Die
Post prints the following cablegram from
WaShingtOn:
IAN preparati tions for the reception Of the
prince were under the personal supervision
of President Roosevelt President Roose-
welt wanted to give Prince Henry a cordial
but not pompous welcome, and has thor
oughly succeeded in doing so. The prince
has shown how much he rejoiced at the
really cordial attitude Of the President and
all those about him. Prince Henry has
una nimously won the hearts Of all at the
White House"
Regarding the events at the White House,
the CORRESPONDENT of Die Post declares
them to have been wonderfully and artis-
tically decorated, but without pomp
The attitude of all newspapers, continues
the correspondent, is extraordinarily cordial
without exception and shows Prince Henry
in his best light. They gave the most de-
tailed descriptions Of the princes doings
and his amiable behavior. and refer espe-
cially to his simplicity, his humor and his
unassuming talk with everybody.
The papers were particularly pleased.
concludes the correspondent, with Prince
Henry's expression OF his wish ito learn
to know men and things with the least
ceremony"
Emperor William has invited the baritone
singer Arthur Van Eweyk Of Milwaukee
to sing American songs at the Schloss next
Thursday evening.

that instead Of the usual installment of its
serial novel it will print selected chapters

Speed of the Carrier Pigeon.

pheasants and partridges. The two first
mentioned flew at the rate Of only S2.s miles
per hour, while the partridge made but o. 4
miles, and these rates were all considerably
in excess Of what they made in the open.
The carrier pigeon Is a rather fast-flying
bird, yet the average speed Is not very
great. Thus the average made in eighteen

only 36 English miles an hour, although In
two Of these trials speed of about IS
miles was maintained for four successive
hours. In this country the average racing
speed Is apparently about 35 miles an hour,
although few exceptionally rapid birds
have made short-distance flights at the rate
of from 45 to 81 miles an hour. The longest
recorded flight Of a carrier pigeon was from
Pensacola, Fla, to Fall River, Mass., an air.
line distance Of 1,1S3 miles. made In 15h

JEALOUSY AMONG BRITISH.
Displeasure at the Greeting Accorded
tho Prince

LONDON, February GA tinge Of jeal-
ousy in observable. in the comments Of the
morning papers on the success Of Prince
Henry.s visit.
The Daily Chronicle suggests that the
remembrance of the attitude Of Admiral
Won Diedrichs in Manila bay may account
for the languid curiosity Of the general
public in the United States.
The Standard finds nothing rema rkable
in the proceedings, but thinks 1t will be
found that Germany and the United States
are really better friends for the visit of
Prince Henry.
The Morning Post is almost alone in dis
playing genuine enthusiasm over this SUBJ
ject. This paper says:
"It is not given to every one to win pop
ularity in America. but Prince Henry con-
quered at once.

be grateful to Emperor William and Pres
ident Roosevelt for this picturesque incl

CREW OF THE HoHENzoLLERN.
Only Picked Men From the German
Navy Aboard.

The New York Herald of today says:
On the Hohenzollern, which is to be the
home Of Prince Henry in this country, Is
crew comprising the cream OF the Ger
man navy. Every man on the emperor's
yacht is a picked man. from the galley boy
up.
There are nearly, 300 of these men, and
better trained and better disciplined crew
Is not af1oat. Every man is typical Ger
man. All wear either little pointed beard
or go clean shaven. There is no mustache
in the German navy without beard to
accompany it.
The discipline on the yacht Is perfect.
The routine is that Of man-of-war, in
which class the Hohenzollern belongs.
The emperors own cooks are on board
the yacht There are five OF these. -Four
arrived on the Graf WalderSee Friday, and
Win accompany Prince Henry on his tour
The entire kitchen force Is the same that
cooks the emperor's meals when he Is on
board the yacht. The kitchen is kept as
neat and clean as a parlor, and Is guard
ed as sacredly as the emperors own
quarters.
rifles well up toward the bow. These are
fixed behind screens and are used for sa-
luting visiting officials. Two immense
searchlights are located on the bow of the
yacht.
At the stern of the vessel, on level
with the saloon deck is a private balcony
where the emperor entertains his friends.
1t is hidden away from the rest OF the boat
and is rallied in with gilt railing. 1t is just
wide enough to accommodate a deck chair,
and is one Of the most delightful spots on
the vessel.
The yacht contains hundreds OF pictures
selected by the emperor himself. Many OF
them are Of American subjects. One big
drawing hanging in one Of the most con-
spicuous places on the yacht is entitled
"Farragut on an August Morning 1t

boat in Mobile bay
In appearance the yacht IS more solid
and less luxurious than the yachts of some
American miliOnaires. 1t is finished IN
splendid style, but the solidty necessary
to carry out the idea Of a warshfp is there.
During the time the yacht has been ly-
has been kept to see that no one not
known or well vouched for Is permitted
aboard. At the foot Of the gangplank
stands representative Of the North Ger
man Lloyd Steamship Company, and at the
head stands the emperor's orderly.
The most marked courtesy and discipline
prevail among the officers Of the yacht.
When the officers are leaving the yacht
in citizens dress they always raise their
silk hats. while the officers remaining on
the yacht salute in return. When the ad-
miral is going ashore the officer or the
deck stands at salute until he reaches the
pier, when the shrill pipe of the boatsWain
announces that the commandant is on
shore.
Thousands Of visitors have crowded the
Hoboken pier during the week to see the
yacht. Those Of German nativity have
shown the keenest interest in the vessel
and have stood for hours on the pier gazing
at the white-hulled yacht in rapt adm1ra-
ton.
