THAW TRIAL is DELAYED.
Lawyers Arrange to Take Deposition!
of Several Witnesses.

New York, Dec 5.-Proceedings be-
fore Justice Newberger, in the crimi-
nal branch of the supreme court, yes
terday brought out the important fact
that the state expects to use the testi-
mony of Mrs. Harry Thaw's mother
and sister and brother against Harry
Thaw when he is tried for the MUIR
der of Stanford White.
1t also developed that 1t may be
months before the case can possibly
be taken up. Instead of starting in
January, It is now certain that the
trial cannot possibly be got under way
until much later date than that, per-
haps as late as the spring or summer
of 1907. Thaw must remain in the
Tombs without bail until that time.
The disclosures came to light in
the course of the argument over the
application of Thaw's counsel for Q
commission to take the evidence OF
two witnesses who are out OF the
state. Thomas Caleg and Truxton
Beale, both of whom are in California
1t would be necessary to name
commission to travel from New YORK
to Pittsburg, thence to California and
thence to South Africa TO secure the
depositions of the various witnesses.

EMlGRANTS ARE SAID TO BE
PICKED MEN WITH MILITARY
EXPERIENCE.
UNCLE SAM READY FOR WAR
OFFICERS OF ARMY AND NAVY
ARE NOT IDLE IN TIMES OF
PEACE.

Honolulu, Dec. 5.-Indications are
cropping out that the Japanese who
have been arriving here for some time
past, as we'll as those who have been
granted passports and who will arrive
in the future, are picked men with
military experience.
1t is said that there are at least
100000. Japanese in Japan ready to
come to Hawaii. The laboring classes
Of Japan are beginning to hear Of the
opportunities they are told exist here
and are showing a desire to come.
Uncle Sam Not Unprepared.
Washington, Dec. 5. - Nothing
which has been said in the whole
range of comment on the possibility
of war between the United States
and Japan has surprised certain
Washington officials SO much as the
seeming unanimity of opinion in the
country that we are utterly unpre-
pared for a fight with the Orientals
This nation is not entirely unpre-
pared for hostilities with Japan or any
other country.
Congressman have cone into Wash
ington from every district and all OF
them seem burdened with the belief
that If trouble comes with Japan the
Philippines will be lost to us, tempo.
rarily at least, within a month.
Will Not Take Philippines.
The japanese will not take the Phil
ippines, or if they do they will be sue
cessful in an exploit that will bring
them such honors of war as few peo-
pie before their time have borne.
Officers of the United States army
and navy whose duties lie along GER
tain lines of preparations are not idle
in times of peace. There is a counter
plan for every possible plan of attack
on our possessions, Or on our fleets
which Japan might attempt. The army
and navy staffs are not publishing
their secrets, but American taxpayers
who, are providing their salaries may
rest assured that the officers of the
army and navy will know how to give
the country and the country's posses
sions protection when the day comes
for protection.

FAMINE OVER VAST REGION
HUNGER AND PESTILENCE RULE
IN STRICKEN PROVINCES OF
RUSSIA.

st. Petersburg, Dec. 5.-Princes g..
r. Lyoff and Orbeliani, the represent
atives of the Moscow Zemstvo famine
relief organization, who have just re-
turned from the stricken districts,
give the following facts regarding con-
ditions in the famine provinces:
The crops in the seven provinces OF
Samara, Saratov, Sembirsk, Kazan,
Penza, Tamboy and Ufa were practi-
cally total failures. In twenty prov
inces the harvests were very poor.
About twenty million people will need
assistance for from four to ten mo0ths
to stave off starvation until the new
crops are available.
Though affecting eighteen million
persons, the destitution is far less In
tense than it was in 1891. In some re-
gions the inhabitants have been suf-
fering from starvation for ten years,
passable crops having been gathered
in only two Of the ten years.
Worse in January.
Though the condition in the famine
regions are now distressing, far worse
may be expected in January. The
zemstvo organization funds, 100000,
will then be exhausted, and the relief
committee will be compelled to cease
it's efforts for the starving peasants.
Prince Lyoff complained that the To-
cal officials, for political reasons, are
interfering with the establishment o.
soup kitchens and the rendering OF
medical assistance.
Girls Sold Into Harems.
On the strength of his present
knowledge, Prince Lyoff reaffirmed
the truth of the report lately officially
denied that girls in Kazan province
have been sold into slavery and taken
to Mohammedan harems in the 0au-
casus.
