Nan Patterson's Attorneys Think
There's No Case Against Her.

New York, Dec. 16.-There was Just
a possibility when the trial of Nan Pat
terson was resumed today that the for
mer show girl might know her fate be-
fore the close of the present week
Counsel for Miss Patterson said they
We're undecided as to whether they
would put in any evidence or allow
their case to go to the jury as prepared
by the prosecution. A decision as to
this was reached at a conference be-
tween counsel, but the result of this
conference was to be closely guarded
until the prosecution had formally an
nounced its case complete. 1t was said
that in case the defense decided that it
would be best to make an effort to rebut
the evidence presented to the jury by
Assistant District Attorney Rand, Miss
Patterson would be the principal wit
ness in her own behalf. She was pre-
pared to tell the whole story of her ac-

meeting of your body his condition
was such that less consideration of the
interests of others would have prompted
him to have stayed away in the inter-

duty he never paid any heed TO his
own physical welfare.

CRUEL RELATIVES.
Shatter the Romance of a German
Girl and an Ohio Doctor.

New York, Dec. ia pretty and
well educated German girl, Anna Ger
trude Radecke, is under detention at
Ellis Island and her romance with a
young doctor from East Liverpool, O.,
appears to have been shattered. Ac-
cording to her story she was to have
married him here Immediately upon
her arrival from Berlin. In that city
the Ohioan met Anna while he was
studying. Six months ago she says
they were betrothed at her home and
the student returned to America. Two
months later she received 800 in a
letter instructing her to sail for New
York. She arrived in due season, but
the immigration officials refused to al
low her to leave the ship until some
one can prove a right to protect her.
AS her name was called out in the
second cabin a woman stepped up and
Dried: This marriage cannot take
place; the doctor is my nephew, and I
have come to inform this woman that
she must go back to Germany"
Miss Radecke was taken to Ellis
Island where she wept for hours.
An attorney representing the per-
sons who had stopped the girl visited
her and offered to supply funds for her
return home, but she spurned his offer
and declared she could earn her own
livelihood if allowed to land.

In connection Herewith, l am sure
YOU understand I am in hearty accord
and sympathy with the purposes of the
National Civic federation in its efforts
for the establishment of more rightfuI
relations between employers and en-
ployes. 1t is a movement SO praise
worthy and so thoroughly American in
conception that it should as matter
of course receive the earnest support
of all good citizens who are awake to
the vital needs of our nation.
Views upon economic and sociolo-
gical problems often differ. There
can be, however, no division of opinion
that the highest aim of all should be
basis of mutual respect and friend
ship, the relations between employers
and workmen.
'sThe men associated in the civic
federation have already done much in
the direction of settling labor difficult
ties on a basis of Cancellation and JUS

this work and largely and intimately
associated with all your work was the
late Marcus A. Hanna, senator from
Ohio, president National Civic fedora

TIME TO CALL A HALT.
Chief Stahl Raids Home of Respect
able Woman and Insults Her.

Thursday Mrs. C. J. Early, of No. 127
Madison street, one of Topeka's old and
well known citizens, was surprised to
hear a commotion in her house. She
was working in her kitchen and upon
looking into the next room was dumb
founded to see Chief of Police Stahl and
two of his officers, who had quietly en-
tered her door unbidden and unan-
nounced.
Il had no means of knowing who he
WAS said Mrs. Early to a reporter for
the State Journal. ''When he saw me
he began talking to me in a most in
decent manner"
Chief Stahrs excuse was that he was
on a quiet search for booze" He pro-
badly was in pursuit of that sort of a
plumber, but he neglected to make sure
that he was in the right place before
going ahead. In consequence, he went
into the house of a perfectly respect
able, law-abiding citizen and Insulted
the woman in her own house. The out
rage is enough to make the blood of all
honest citizens boil

nevertheless a thorough search of the
house was made by two of the men
while the other stood guard over Mrs.

Mrs. Early's continued protests.
A lamp was lighted to be used in ex-
ploring the cellar.
Chief Stahl did not even inform me
as to his identity for long while af-
ter he had been inside the house." said
Mrs. Early He was most insulting
and indecent. 1t seems deplorable that
reputable people are not safe from at
lacks and unwarranted acts of our
chief of police. There are some things
which are beyond all reason, and his
entrance of my house without even
knocking, or anything, is one of the
things which ought not to be tolerated.
Chief Stahl and his men left the house
after making a thorough search in
which they found not the slightest trace
Of liquor Mrs. Early was alone in the
house with her two daughters when the
police officers entered and she was
nearly frightened to death. She has
lived in Topeka for 81 years and never

outrage.

which Chief Stahl had started was an
entirely different house. He wanted to
