THEJ.H. TILLMAN TRIAL
ATTORNEYS AGREE TO ALTER
NATE IN ARGUMENT.
Defense Comedies That Gonzales Was
Unarmed-Both Sides Refer to
Gonzales Editorials.

LEXINGTON, S. c., October 12-When
the trial of J. H. Tilman was resumed this
morning counsel agreed to alternate in ad-
dressing the jury counsel for the defense
announcing that but four of their number
would speak. Solicitor Thurmond. before
opening the argument addressed the court
on the states request for instructions to
the jury as to the law in the case, the So
licitor giving the states Interpretation of
the law. At 10:30 o'clock Solicitor Thurmond
began the opening address to the jury, en-
tering upon a review of the testimony ad-
duced by the state.
The solicitor said that the editorials in the
State were before the jury to show the feel
ings existing between the defendant and
Mr.. Gonzales. and in this connection dwelt
upon the freedom of the press. Going into
detail he discussed the testimony of the
principal witness for the state in compari
son with that of witnesses for the defense
contendng for the showing made by the
state. He concluded at 10.
Attorney Rembert. in opening for the de-
fense. devoted his arguments first to ref
erence to the States editorials and their in
fluence upon the defendant, ard to a de-
fense of a witness for the defense whose
evidence was attacked by the state. He said
the defense did not concede that Mr.. Con
Zales was unarrned at the time of the shoot
ing, but he contended that the defendant
believed that his life was in danger when
he met Mr.. Gonzales.
Attorney William Elliott. following for
the state said Mr. Tilinan had recourse to
the courts If he sought vindication on ac-
count of the editorials in the State. He
said Mr.. Gonzales dd not write all that
appeared in the editorials before the jury,
saying some of the utterances were copied
from other newspapers.
a statement made by M. Gonzales which
was taken down at the hospital in short
hand was not offered in evidence, he said,
because the stenographer was the private
secretary of Mr.. Gonzales. Mr. Elliott con-
cluded at 80 pm, when recess was
taken.

JoHNsoN'S PLAN FAILED

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
COLUMBUS Ohio, October IAN at

state who are cold in their support of his
candidacy for governor has failed signally

TO CONSOLIDATE BUREAUS.
Plan Being Considered by the Secretary
of the NAVY.

Secretary Moody is considering plan for
the consolidat ton of certain bureaus of the
Navy Department for the better efficiency
of the service, and will present his views
on the subject to Congress in his annual re-
port.
That the method of conducting business
at the department can be improved is evil
dent to Secretary Moody and Assistant Secv,
retary Darling. The plan now under con-
sideration contemplates the e.satien of one
large bureau out of the thrcs bureaus of
construction and repair, steam engineering
and equipment, to be known as the bureau
of ships. 1t is the intention to place the
new bureau under the charge of rear ad
miral and its three subdivisions under
charge of captains. That, in substance, is
the scheme advocated by ex-Secretary
Long. g.
Other imp ortant changes in the work OF
the bureaus and of the general board are
under consideration by Secretary Moody.
reorganiza ton of the board of construc-
ton, with a possible division of it's work
with the general board, has been suggested.
1t is not at ell probable that the Secre-
tary will advocate the general staff scheme
for the navy, as recommended by the naval
general board, of which ADMIRAL Dewey is
the president. That proposition has been
opposed from the first by Assistant Secre-
tary Darling and a number of naval Off
GERS.

ton cannot be interpreted to mean
good things for Johnson in Hamilton

Lean men are going after him to the full
extent of their power on election day. and
will not be content with merely refusing
to vote for him. They are qualifying to
vote and will no doubt vote for Col. Her

Her Return to Japan.

There. is a considerable range Of
differences suggested in the letter of
a Japanese woman recently returned
to her own land, after four years in
this country. Readopting her native
costume, she writes of it:
yesterday I bought a suit of Jap
anese clothes, very pretty, cost about
$12. My brother helped me to choose
fashionable ones and we had all sorts of
fun. For instance, when I went to
buy a pair of Japanese stockings
had to try on and change three times,
for the American shoes have made my
feet much smaller than those of four
years ago and hence I cannot at all
wear the same sized stockings as for
snlerly. Next, about the color of my
dress and the material of it, with
