 Mrs. Elias apparently made no attempt to cover the details of her early life. She answered readily every question by her counsel as to their methods of life in Philadelphia and imediately af- ter coming to this city and admitted
 that she had served two terms in pris- on, one in Philadelphia for larceny and the other in this City for disorderly conduct.
 It developed during the examination of witnesses today that Mrs. Elias had distributed her casily-acquired wealth with free hand among those who
 had been of assistance to her. Lawyer August c. Nanse said she had paid him $20,0O0 in fees; Lawyer Washington
 Brauns received from her more than
 $1O, 900 in fees. She paid more than S60, 900 to one firm for carpets and fur niture. A man who acted as godfather
 at the christening of her child received a present of 1000 and when the child
 died it was placed in a mausoleum which she erected at cost of $6,OO0. It appeared from the testimony also that John R. Platt had paid Lawyer Nanse $3,500 in connection with one of the Elias suits in which the lawyer was interested.
 Patrick w. Dugap, an upholsterer who did much work for Mrs. Elias, said that Platt had made him a pres ent of a $500 bill every Christmas for
 three years, because he had been good | to Dolly"

 name by which MT. Platt always ad- | dressed Mrs. Elias, She called him papa.

I'VE solemnly assert that no new
system Of government In Ireland will
be accepted as satisfactory unless it
provides for legislative assembly,
freely elected and representative OF
the people, with power to make laws
for ireland, and an executive govern
ment responsible to that assembly,
and this convention declares that the
Irish National party cannot enter into
an alliance with or give permanent
support to any English party or gov
ernment which does not make the
question of granting such an assembly
and executive to Ireland the cardinal
point of its programme"

with the hoped for establishment
Of more liberal form OF government
and the restoration of administrative
control over the remote scenes of the

American Hebrews and may be IN a
position to exert efficient good infiu-

all Jews in Russia and the better pro-
lection from the consequences Of deep
lying racial antagonism. The problem
is one which strongly attracts the
sympathetic action OF this govern

Civil Engineer Bates Plans For
Canal Would Revolutionize
Health and Sanitation
He Proposes Putting Canal Into oper-
alton Within Five Years, Deepening
1t to a Sea Level, and to Construct
Locks From the Foundation, Below
the Sea LeveI-Further Details.

Washington. Sept. 19.-The board of
consulting engineers of the lsthmian
canal commission, today devoted it's
time to hearing an explanation of the
plans for the canal, which Mr.. Bunau
Varilla and Linden w. Bates respec-
lively, have formulated. Bunau Var
engineer under the French regime.
Bates is civil engineer of New York
Bunau Narilla told the board that UNI
der his proposed method, the canal
could be built and put into operation
within five years. 1t could be Deepen
ed to a sea level canal within five
years or more. A novel feature of his
plan is to construct locks from the
foundation below the sea level He
submitted no prosposition as to the
location of dams. or other suggestions
regarding the engineering features OF
the canal.
The plan of Bates combines many
suggestions which have. been made
from the inception of the idea OF can-
al. 1t is essentially different from that
being studied by the board, In location
and arrangement of the dams. Bates
proposes locating the principal dams
on either side of the isthmus, close to
the sea, conserving waters from the
streams into two mammoth lakes. He
pointed out that this would eradicate
he swamps and tend to revolutionlze
the health and sanitary conditions Of
the iSthmuS.

For the last four years. in addition

Sunday Mr.. Mayhall announced that
i'm view of the social and financial
standing of the members of the church
it was necessary to increase the in
come of the pastor, that he might
maintain an equal position.
Two propositions were then made D;
the "laWye preacher to the congre-
cation. the first being that he continue
to devote his entire time to the min
istry, in which event his salary is to
be doubled. or that he be permitted to
divide the time between the practice

stipend. The church has until the 1st
OF October to decide if either propo-
siton is to be accepted. Ii the decs-
sion is adverse to the pastor he viii
