Germany Said, to Be Anxious to Avoid

Berlin, Feb. 5.-Inquiries made to-
day at the foreign Office regarding
the German-American tariff question
elected the information that this gov
ernment is very pessimistic, even
doubling that it will be- possible to
secure provisional arrangements
from the United States which Germ
any would accept. Germany is anx-

is said go to great lengths in max

JACK THE sLAsHER."
Cuts Back of Woman's Black Velvet
Dress with Long Knife.

Dress with Long Knife.
Washington, D. c., Feb. 5.-Mrs.
VIM Barton, wife of a local physi-
clan, was the victim of a "Jack the
Slasher'' while walking through a de-
partment store here Saturday after
noon. The man followed Mrs. Bar
ton for some time before slashing her
black velvet dress. He inflicted a
clean, even cut about two feet long
the blade of the weapon, which was
evidently a long and sharp one, ex-
tending almost to the flesh. Every
effort will be made to apprehend the
assailant, as former experiences with
the slasher in this city have been not
only costly, but a large number of wo-
men have been terrorized.

Gould) today entered a plea for di-
vorce from her husband
Representatives of the Countess
and Count appeared before the Judge,
who. according to French law, en-
deavored to arrange a conciliation
before allowing definite suit to pro-
ceed. 1t is said that the Judges eff
fort was not successful. The suit will
proceed, but owing to the secrecy in

have been current here for a long
time that the Countess had decided
to sever any further continuation OF
her relations. while her removal from
the Castellane residence to the Ho

Control of Police.

Control of Police.
Berlin, Feb. 3.-Germany's atti-
tude towards the proposition to place
the control of the Moroccan police in
the hands of France and Spain is
one of firm opposition, as the arrange
ment would, according to the Ger
man view, amount to practically CIV
ing France full authority over the
police, which Germany has hitherto
steadily resisted. The foreign office
says that the delegates to the con-
ference at Algeciras will devote the
next few days while the conference
is not sitting to informal exchange
of views on the subject of manage
ment of the police in an attempt to
shape an acceptable plan for adjust
ing this vexed question.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 5.-Mr.
Patterson caused a sensation in the
senate today by introducing a resolu-
tion relative to the right of senator's
in voting on treaties Mr. Patterson's
resolution recited that the action of
the Democratic caucus Indicating to
senators how they should vote was
plain violation of the spirit and in.
tent of the constitution of the United
tied to one vote, and that any at
tempt to coerce him was a violation
of the rights of the states, that any
senator who permits himself to be
so coerced weakens and-degrades his
state, that for any senator to vote
otherwise than as his sense of duty
dictates degrades his high Office and
assails the dignity and standing of
the senate. The resolution was lis
tened to with great interest by the
senators. Mr.. Lodge had prepared a
resolution similar to that of Senator
Patterson, declaring that treaty like
the leominican treaty should not be
made the subject of party election.
but withheld it when he heard Pat
terson had prepared a resolution.

privilege, of presenting the matter.
Mr.. Lodge conceded the superiority
of Mr.. Patterson's claim.
Senator Tillman objected to pres

resolution, unless it was a question
of personal privilege. Mr.. Patterson
said it was not, and gave notice that
he would discuss the resolution to-
morrow

the junior member.
This firm has designed many of the
principal buildings in the east. Mr..
White designed the Madison Square
Garden, the buildings of the Century
and Metropolitan clubs, the Washing
ton arch, the new buildings of the Uni
versity of Virginia and those of New
York university, and the pedestals for
the principal statues of St. Gaudens.
Mr.. White lived at No. 121 E. 21st

Career Of Young Thaw.
Harry Kendall Thaw came before
the public prominently in October,
19n4, when rumors came from Europe
that he had married Evelyn Nesbit, a
former New York artists model and
chorus girl. Prior to this, Thaw OBJ
tanned notoriety through his reckless
expenditures of money. Young Thaw's
father provided in his will that his
son should not come into his full in
come of $4,000 year until he became
thirty-fve years old. Up to then he
was to get $4,000 year. Through
Mrs. Thaw's intercession the family
provided him with the $77,50O addi-
tional.
Evelyn Nesbit, who became his wife
on April 4, 1905, was flower girl in
The Toreador" company.
They were married in Pittsburg by
the Rev. DR.. William E. McEwan, of
the Third Presbyterian church. Thaw's
mother, Mrs. William Thaw, in spite
Of earlier opposition, was present.
Haste and simplicity marked the wel-
ding, and afterward a small dinner
was served at Mrs. Thaw's house.
Miss Nesbit is the daughter of c. j.
Holman, of Oakland, a suburb of
Pittsburg
The romance lasted over three years.
Before he met her he gave dinner
In Paris to a score of noted beauties,
at an estimated cost of $4,000.
Miss Nesbit's stage career began as
member of the "Wild Rose" COM
pany. Harry Thaw's sister, Miss
Alice, married the earl of Yarmouth.
Reports are still remembered in Pitts
burg social circles that the wedding
was delayed by rumors that the earl
was insisting on a larger marriage
settlement, although Mrs. Thaw denied
this. Harry Thaw was carefully rear
ed. From the time he was fourteen
years old he was guarded by tutors,
whose instructions were to keep him
from evil influences. When he went
to swim in a natatorium he was even
accompanied into the water by a COM
papion.
Edward Thaw. a brother, was d.
vorced from his wife, Frieda, in No
vember, 1905. They had been married
ten years. The ground on which the
decree was obtained was not mem
toned. "a,

MRS. 7y4AW NOT TO TESTIFY;
MURDER IS DIRECT CHARGE

Associates Ffesa to The EveAing Tfmea.
New York, June 2S.-Events fol-
!, lowed each other in rapid succession
in the Thaw-White murder tragedy to-
day. The proceedings began with the
coroner's inquest which consumed
scarcely more than half hour, and
the jury consumed only three minutes
in reaching Its verdict, which declar-
ed that White came to his death by a
gunshot wound inflicted by Thaw.
The presentation of the case to the
grand jury followed without delay and
by early afternoon, an Indictment
charging murder in the first degree
had been reported, the prisoner had
been sent back to the Tombs without
bail and arrangements had been made
for him to plead to the indictment to-
morrow. Throughout the entire pro-
ceedings Thaw appeared to be the
least interested person in the criminal
court bGilding.
Mrs. Thaw was taken before the
grand jury, but 1t is understood she
declined to answer any questions bear
ing on the murder, and no pressure
whatever was exerted to force her to
testify. The body of Stanford White
was buried today at st. James, L. T.
Mrs. Thaw remained in the grand
jury room about fifteen minutes. She
then left in company with her hus-
bands counsel and went to the Tombs
to visit the prisoner.
The grand jury returned an indict-
ment against Thaw charging murder
in the first degree. Thaw will plead
to the indictment before Justice Gown
tomorrow.
A decision was reached that Mrs.
Thaw will refuse to testify before the
grand jury and that she will plead
that she should not be made to give
any evidence that might be damaging
to her husband. Mrs. Thaw asked
permission of her husbands counsel
to attend the coroner'S inquest today
and sit by her husbands side, but her
request was denied by the attorney.
The White inquest was completed
and the case was submitted to the jury
shortly after II o'clock.
The important testimony at the in
quest was given by Lionel Lawrence,
stage director at the Madison Square
Roof Garden theater. Lawrence said
that Immediately after the shooting,
Mrs. Thaw rushed UP to her husband
and throwing her arms around his
neck said, Never mind, Harry. will
stick to you through thick and thin. !"
Thaw turned to the crowd which sur
rounded them and said, "That .... !.

fixed him for It The jury brought in
q verdict that White came to his death
by gunshot wounds inflicted by Harry
X. Thaw. d ss
Soon after the close Of the coroner's
inquest, proceedings against Thaw
were begun before the grand jury. At
noon Mrs. Harry K. Thaw entered the
grand Jury room. She was accom-
/ panied by her counsel Judge Olcott
and Terence McManus.
AS near as can be learned the de-
tails Of the crime are as follows:
About i've minutes after II o'clock

Devils Lake People Believe
Finny Tribe Will Thrive in
Waters There and Importune
Aid of Senator Hansbrough.
JUG OF WATER
SENT DEPARTMENT
From Devils Lake for Analysis
Prominent Men Pushing Pro.
ject of Planting.
BY E. C. Snyder.

Washington, D. c., June 28.-Sena-
tor Hansbrough is in receipt of let
ter from Mr.. c. M. Fisher, president
of the Ramsey County National bank
OF Devils Lake, seeking his aid to
secure the restocking of the lake with
fish. Senator Hansbrough is giving
the matter his hearty cooperation.
1t appears that the Business Mems
association of Devils Lake has appoint
ed Mr.. Fisher at the head of a COM
mittee to look into the matter of en-.
deavoring to get some game and edible
fish into the main lake. Mr.. Fisher,
who is evidently an enthusiastic dis
ciple of Izaak Walton, recalls to the
recollection of Senator Hansbrough
that in days past fish by the carload
were taken from the lake and he con-
fidently believes that in waters where
fish once thrived so abundantly could
again be made to TEEN with the flnny
tribe, to the joy of the sportsman and
the profit of the community. Some
time ago Mr.. Charles E. Taylor became
interested in restocking the lake and
procured from it sample of its water
and had 1t analysed and submitted the
analysis to some fish expert and then
forwarded his report to officials of the
fish commission at Washington. Wash
ington officials were not satisfied with
the analysis of the water an dintimat-
ed that more thorough and scientific
analysis should be made. Mr.. Fisher
proposes to offer the commissioner ON
fish and fisheries another sample of
the peculiar water of Devils lake. In
his letter to Senator Hansbrough, Mr..
Fisher states that he went to the lake
the other day armed with brand new
two gallon jug whic hhe filled with
water from the bosom of the lake,
corked and sealed it and expressed
this most original package of fish bait
to Hon. George M. Bowers, commits
sioner of fish and fisheries. No one
yet knows what Bowers will think of
this jug of water. That will probably
remain secret for long time.
Mr. Fisher is confident, however, IL
consideration is given the matter that
the question of the kind of fish to ex-
pertinent with can be decided upon.
and all this too, done speedily, so that
it might be possible to make ship
ment of fish for the salt lake at the
same time that shipment is sched-
uled to go forward for the fresh water
lake this fall. Senator Hansbrough,
as before stated, is taking an interest
in the matter and has written letter
to Commissioner Bowers urging that
official to give the request of the,
DEVILS Lake Business Mems associa-
tion early and serious consideration.
