 Expert Testimony.
 Chicago, Dec. 27.-Dr. Fine L. Lob dell. one of the, leading women physi- clans in Chicago. opening defied the municipal court yesterday and. after refusing to testify In case on hear ing. practically dared Judge Frank Grove to send her to jail for contempt
 The court first gave pr. Lobdell i've minutes to pay a fine of $25 and apolo- gtze or go to jail. The physician calmly remained in her seat till the five minutes had expired. declaring her willingness to go to jail.
 She "bluffed" tho court temporarily. When the five minutes were up. The judge found 1t impossible to send the woman to Jail without giving her op- portunity to get full advice from her lawyer"
 But even as she was given until to- day to make her apology or go to Jail for six months, she openly declared that she would refuse to obey the courts order, and that she would not appear in court today.
 In an interview Dr. Lobdell said she refnsed to testify because she was de- termined to begin a nght to force the nayment to physicians of proper conn pengation for expert testimony In crim' Inai cases.

 The party is equipped for several days sport Tn the woods and these, with long walks which the President and Mrs. Roosevelt are expected to take. will consume much of the time at their country home. The President wore q slouch hat, a dark cutaway coat, and trousers to match, and a coiored shirt.

DEFENDS HITCHCOCK
REPORT ON WITH DRAwAL OF LAND
 ALL0TMENTs.
Clalmed Indians Desired Forest Re- serves and They Would AlsO Do Much To Prevent Flooding
 of AaissigsIppl.

Washington, Dec 27-Clifford Pin chot, chief of the forest reserve, today approved a rough draft of a report to be submitted to the Secretary of Agri- culture relating to the four million acres of land in the Indian Territory whose withdrawal for forest reserve purposes brought about both an inves- tigation and criticism of the secreta- ries of the Interior and Agriculture by a Senate committee.
 The report will be a defense of the withdrawal of the lands in question located in the Choctaw and Cherokee nations In the Indian Territory and will show first that the proposed forestry reserve about which so much has been said in criticism, particularly of the Secretary of the Interior, was asked for primaily by the Indians themselves and other local people; second, that the maintenance of forest reserve on the proposed area will furnish a much needed continuous supply of timber and wood for local use and also prevent disastrous floods along a thousand miles of the Red River through Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana where immense sums of money are now being expend- ed for levees by local people and the government; third, that the forest re- serve would not take up all the residue of land after al,otments to the Indians.
 The report will further insist that the Secretary of the Interiors action in temporarily suspending allotments was not only within his right but he would have been remiss had he done other wise.
 AS a result of careful inspection at the hands of one of the most reliable men at the Forestry Bureau, a reeom- mendation will be made to the Secre- tary of Agriculture, who will undoubt edly transit the same to the Secretary or the Interior, that as originally with drawn, some 4.000, ,000 acres, can be properly reduced to half the size by leaving out the part in the Cherokee Nation and all the lands within twenty miles of the Missouri. Kansas and Tt xas Railway in the Choctaw Nation.
 This report, winch 1t Is expected the Secretary of the Interior will make public as soon as 1t reaches him, will snow that considerably more than half of the reduced area withdrawn for for est reserve purposes is valuable for agriculture and can be allotted in the near future after examination to deter mine It's available character
 Notwithstanding the contention that the Secretary of the Interior had no warrant of law in which to segregate the lands in question. the contention being that they primarily belong to the indians 1t understood, with the with drawaI as outlined above, will take place and that the Indians have the right to try out the authority of the Secretary in making the withdrawal ID the courts, one case already having been commented on the part of an In- dian against the Secretary of the Inte- rfoF.

 St. Petersburg, Dec. 27.--With tho trials of AdmiraIs Rojestvensky and NehoRatoff out of the way. a strong effort is being made with inhuentialof- ficial backing to compel the authorl- ties to make an inquiry into the naval scandals of the Grand Ducal regime to which the defeat of the Russians at the battle of the Sea of Japan are largely attributed,
 The Journal de St Petersburg. which is ministerially supported in leading article today, demands an investigation of the charges of corruption brought against of1cials and of dishonesty In providing warships with defective armor guns and projectiles. which the defense vainly epdeavored to introduc" at the courts martial of the two ad- mirals.
 The article reeoVnizes the necessity for the condemnation of Admiral Ne bogatoff. but maintains fiat his trial did not unvei1 the multitude of proofs of cnrrnntion and criminaI negligence which must he s'fted and 'he resnon- sibiiity brorRht home to the right quarters before the reconstruction oe Russian navy can he undertaken
 The accusations are supnorted by c letter of Marine Minister BirilAff writ fen before the war and puhl'she1 re- centlv. showing that the corruotiou in tba adr,iraltv was then an open secret among the hiehest oFi"iais

,ehter Of Duke Frederick of schless-

daughter of Duke Frederick of schless- wig Holstein- Sonderburg- Glucksburg. She was born in April. 1871. Prince Augustus was born January 26, 1877.
 The Princess Is a niece of the Empress and the young couple are also related on the male side. and they had a common ancestor at the begin ming of the seventeenth century. The Princess is just completing her educa- ton under private tutcrs.
 Prince Augustus is a student at Bonn. The Emperor conversed with Prof Peabody of Harvard President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia and Con- gressman Longworth at various times within the year about sen3ing Prince Augustus to an American university, possibly Harvard, but 1t does not ap- pear that the Emperor has made up his mind upon the subject.
 Following the usual custom with German royal families the wedding of Princess Victoria and Prince Augustus Is not likely to be deferred longer than six months.

 s'The appointment Of temporary rec eaivers In Alabama for the Mobile. Jackson ar1 Kansas City Railroad Company was made without any notice ar intl1nAsion co auyote e0nhected with fha company. the proceedings being entirely exparte. Up Go this hour tine officers of the company have received no Information of the nature of the proceedings or the reasons for the ap- pointment of receivers. The company Is not In dafault in the payment of any interest due the bondholders. and is not In default in the payment of any credit of any character or description.
 It has met every obligation promptly and all preparations had been made to pay the interest due on the bonds of the Mobile. Jackson and Kansas City Railroad Company and the Gulf and Chicago Railroad Company on January 1, but we now understand that the court has. upon these exparte proceed ings, enjoined the disbursement of any Of the funds of the company.
 "The company. together with sew eral large bondholders and other cred itUrs, have employed counsel. headed oy Judge John F. Dillon of this city, to take immediate steps towards the re. moval of the receivers and the restorA- ton of the property to the management so that the operation of the properties of the company will not be interrupted and it's obligations met as they ma ture.
 "That the proceedings have been brought by certain interests hostile to the railroad Is made evident by the fact that one of the receivers. F. E. Dewey, Is a discharged employe- officer of the company.
 "The earnings of the railroads are more than sufficient to meet all operat- ing expenses and obligations, and are verp rapidly increasing"
