1 81 i
Cleveland, o., March 9.--The case Of
the government against Mrs. Chad
wick has been completed. One wit
ness for the defense, an expert account
ant, was sworn but an adjournment
was taken until to-day before he had
given any testimony. The entire after
noon session Of the court was taken up
by the introduction, as evidence. OF
checks, deposit slips, books of the bank
and two letters written by Mrs. Chad
wick to Beckwith and Spear.
The most important point made by
the state In Its entire case was gained
when District Attorney Sullivan, after
hard fight with the attorneys for the
defense secured the admission as evil
dence Of two drafts aggregating $780,
900 issued by the Oberlin bank in
favor Of Mrs. Chadwick August "a,
1903. On this same date, Mrs. Chad
wick obtained from the bank GER
tilted check for $12,5OO; and Receiver
Lyon testified that there was nothing
on the books of the bank to show that
at the time Of receiving the drafts and
the check, Mrs. Chadwick had cent
Of money in the bank or was In any
way entitled to credit The drafts
were entered on the books of the bank
one month and five days after being
issued. During this time the books Of
the 0berlin bank showed that the
money was held to Its credit at the
Importers and Traders national bank
in New York, while II was in reality
In the possession Of Mrs. Chadwick.
Two letters written by Mrs. Chadwick
to Beckwith and Spear were read and
afforded considerable amusement to
the court. The letter first read was
written Jointly to Beckwith and Spear,
and related to loan which Mrs. Chad
wick had secured from w. l.. Fay, Of
Elyria, o. 1t declared the writer had
given check to Fay. and when he
came to see them about 1t, all they had
to do was to say that they had agreed
to extend her paper. 1t would not be
necessary for them to say anything
beyond that. The letter concluded:
"He said that You would be surprised to
see the check in his hands, so you
better be surprised. II you don't say
1t, you can look It,"
The second letter was written to
Spear alone In It Mrs. Chadwick
asked him to certify check to be
given by her TO Henry Wurst, Of Ely
ria saying that she would get the
goods In the east to meet the check.

stress In presenting the letters to
the jury to the apparent fact that
Mrs. Chadwick was asking for the GER
LITIGATION of check not only when
she had no funds in the bank, but
even before she had signed 1t.

should Japan ORer '.AGoderate''
Tern,s and Recosnize It's Adver-
cary NJ Power In Far East
Peace Could ne Arranged.

st. Petersburg, March 13.-The Inn
mediate answer of the Russian govern
ment to the defeat at Mukden is the
announcement that a new army will
be raised and the forces In the far east
reorganized; that Vice Admiral Rojest-
yensky will be ordered to sail on and
try conclusions with Togo and that the
war will be prosecuted to the bitter
end.
This is the present temper Of Empe-
ror Nicholas and his dominant advl-
sors, voiced in the firm official an
nonncement that the position Of Russia
is unchanged and that the initiative
for peace can only come from japan.
Should the island empire choose to
tender moderate" terms and recognize
its adversary as the power in the far
east, peace could be easily arranged;
but the voice of her diplomacy in
various parts Of the world indicates
that she is not ready to do this and the
Russian government, with the full
magnitude of the disaster at Mukden
still undetermined, but with the 1905
campaign seemingly already hopeless
TX compromised. retreat to Hardin
Inevitable and Vladivostok practically
lost, declares that the time has not yet
come when Russia can be forced to
humble herself
But while this Is the official attitude
nothing but peace talk is heard in ST.,
Petersburg. The difficulties Of another
mobilization on large scale will be
enormous; In fact, 1t is stated in some
quarters that 1t will be impossible.
Nevertheless 1t might be accomplished.
The real hope, however, for anything
like successful termination Of the war
is admitted to rest upon the prospects
Of the financial exhaustion Of Japan.
Russian resources, 1t Is figured, can
stand the drain better than those Of
Japan and a protracted campaign it
IS hoped will bring about Japan's f.
nancial ruin. Financial Minister Ko-
kovsokk, at the conclusion Of con-
ference of the national finances a few
days ago. is said to have tapped the
table before him and exclaimed: eve
