IN RRoUWER MURDER TRIAL.
Expert Chemists Testimony the Main
Feature.


Toms River, N. j., Oct. 10.-The
principal feature of the testimony at
Tuesdays session Of the trial of DR..
Frank Brouwer, accused of the MUIR
der of his wife by administering poi
son and ground glass, was the testi-
mony of Frederick Genth Of Philadel-
phia, the expert chemist who analysed
the contests Of the alimentary canal
taken from Mrs. Brouwer's body. In
his testimony, however, DR.. Genth,
with reference to the jars in which the
organs were placed, admitted that
particles of glass found by him on the
outside of the stomach had undoubt-
eddy been broken off the jar in putting
on or taking off the cover. He had
previously testified to the finding Of
number of particles Of glass in the in
testines, but under cross-eXamination
the fact that in one instance at least
pieces of glass found had come from
the jar containing the organ was
brought out.
DR.. Cattell, who made the autopsy,
testified that Mrs. Brouwer's death
might have resulted from arsenical
poisoning.
Miss Una Dudley, one of the nurses
who attended Mrs. Brouwer during her
fatal Illness testified that she had not
administered to the sick woman hypo-
dermic injections prepared by DR..
Brouwer for that purpose, but she was
not allowed to tell why.

INDIGNANTLY DENIED.
Statements Regarding New Found.
land Situation,

land Situation.
st. Johns, N. F., Oct. 10.-The state.
ments contained in Washington dis.
patch received here to the effect that
NrE Foundland merchant fishermen
controlled the government, had tried
to prevent the Americans from secur-
ing treaty rights and had hampered
the British government in assuring
such rights to Americans, Is indignant
~ denied in official circles here.
On the contrary. officials declare
that the British government strongly
upheld every contention advanced by
New Foundland until few weeks
ago, when it suddenly abandoned the
colony and surrendered to the Ameri-
cans. In support of this the officials
cite Congressman Gardeners letter to
the Gloucester Board Of Trade, OF
July Z, 1906, in which Mr.. Gardner,
speaking as the mouthpiece Of the
state department, said:
"The state department believes that
New Foundland has the right to pro-
hibit its own citizens from engaging
in our crews unless they are inhabi-
tants of the United States. Our rights
to secure such crews by advertisement
in New Foundland newspapers would
undoubtedly be contested by Great
Britain
The colonial ministry has decided
not to resign and intends to fight the
matter to the end. 1t will suspend
the regulations prohibiting the local
use of purse SENS, thereby putting the
colonists upon an equality with the
American fishermen. It will dispatch
the cruisers Iona and Neptune
to patrol the herring areas. All ex-
listing colonial laws will be rigidly en-
forced against the Americans and for
the least offense American vessels
will be confiscated instead Of fined, as
formerly. Every concession hitherto
granted the Americans will be with
drawn. Local fishermen will be en-
couraged to occupy the waters and
drift other nets before the Americans
arrive, thereby preventing the latter
from enjoying the expected benefits
Of this agreement.

INVITATIONS ISSUED FOR PRO-
PosALs TO COMPLETE THE
GREAT WATERWAY.
ENTIRE CONSTRUCTION WORK
THE CONTRACT PROVIDES THAT
EACH BIDDER MUST BE PRE-
PARED TO DO 1T.

Washington, Oct. 10.-Invitations
FOR proposals to complete the Parma
sanal have been issued by the canal
commission and the form Of contract
under which the work is to be done
has been made public by Chairman
Shonts, who also gave out a letter
written to the secretary of war giving
the commissions reasons for contract
ing the work.
The contract provides that each bid
der must undertake the entire work
of construction. No bar will be Of
fered to corporations associating in
the undertaking, but they must be
legally organized into single body
with which the government can deal
Bidders will not be considered who do
not have available capital of $5,000,-
900. A certified check for 100000 is
required from the successful bidder.
The bidding is not limited to American
contractors. All proposals are to be
in before noon Of Dec. ~, when they
will be opened. Proposals are to be
expressed in terms of percentage upon
the estimated cost of construction,
which is to be fixed by board of five
engineers, three representative the
government and two representing the
contractor. The chief engineer of the
canal commission is to be chairman Of
the engineering board.
Placed at Disposal of Contractor.
All the government plant for actual
construction work including the rail
way is to be placed at the disposal of
the contractor and is to be maintained
by the government.
The contract specifies that the COM
mission is to retain control OF all en-
cheering work in connection with the
construction of the canal, also NUM-
cipal engineering, the police, sanitary
hospital and commissary departments,
mess houses, quarters, construction
and maintenance of buildings, opera
ton Of the Panama railroad, an audit
ing department to which contractors
accounts are to be open, and depart
ment of materials and supplies.
Sixty days after the signing Of the
contract actual work is to begin on the
Tsthmus.
No American employee is to work
more than eight hours day.
Chairman Shonts defends the per-
centage system of payment in his let
ter to Secretary Taft by saying the
plan Is being worked increasingly by
the oldest, largest and most success
full corporations in the country and
the government will get the benefit of
the combined efforts of the best and
most experienced contractors in the
world.
The plan offers every incentive for
speedy and economical construction
by penalizing extra time and cost and
rewarding better than contract per-
Torrance as to either.

Although Andrew Russell of jacksonville

delegates than John F. Smulski of Chicago,
the machine nominated the latter by a
