All Connected With Thaw Trial
Feel Effects Of Tension.
END IS THOUGHT TO BE NEAR
Evidence Win Probably Be Completed
BY Next Monday Or Tuesday, and
Friday Will See Case in Hands OF
Jurors.

NEW YORK. March l6.-"Thank
God, the end is in sight" This was
the fervent whisper OF District Attor-
ney Jerome at the Thaw trial yester-
day. uttered loud enough for the re-
porters to hear, following a favorable
decision by Justice Fitzgerald re-
garding the Hummel affidavit
The strain on those attending the
trial has been severe. Justice Fitz-
gerald has shown the effects of it, as
have the lawyers for the defense. and
the District Attorney. While Mr.. Je-
rome asked for an additional fifteen
minutes at the usual hour for ad-
journment Mr.. Delmas protested. de-
ciaring that his endurance had been
stretched to the breaking point. He
would not consent to another delay.
Jerome did his best to get from Del
mas an estimate on the length OF
time that would be required TO COM
plete the sur-rebuttal. But Thaw's
lawyers declined TO give any sugges-
tion on this line.
1t is generally believed, however,
that Monday and Tuesday will see the
close of the evidence, and that We'd
nesday and Thursday will be used In
summing up. There is every reason
to believe that Friday will put the
fate of Harry X. Thaw in the hands
of the jury unless some unexpected
development occurs.
The sensational affidavit which Mr..
Jerome fought hard to get into the
evidence will probably be read in

iency bin offered yesterday to pay pro-
testants against Smoot s. 800 for expenses

GALVESTON BILLS IN
HOUSE TODAY
Continued from Page /.

THE results" says Mr. Turner have
been secured by straight, careful bust
ness methods such as any man would ap-
ply to his own affairs. The amount of
special taxes collected under the admin
istratiOn has been greatly in excess OF
any ever collected before and this in a
great degree has done much toward re-
ducing the regular levy and consequently
the burden OF the average taxpayer.
Special attention is paid TO the streets
and In this connection Mr. Turner says:
The streets are the kindergarten les
son in city government Anyone and
everyone must see every day whether
the administration of that department is
good or bad, Everybody knows and talks
about the great change in Galveston. Be-
fore the storm the business district was
paved with wooden blOcks-left SO dirty
that II was impossible To recognize the
paving with the human eye. The streets
were almost impossible. During the
storm this stuff flOated away, leaving
oniv the bare sand underneath. The COM
mission Immediately SET TO work replac-
ing it with brick and the price paid for
il was 40 per cent less than the worth
less pavement that preceded il. Now, be
SAYS the streets are bright and clean and
well cared for and the expense is much
less than formerly

ested in the above subject.

supplies. Under the ward aldermen. each
alderman wanted as many lights as pos
sble for his district and the more in
fluential got them all leaving some parts
OF the city wholly without light The
commissioners have distributed the lights
in an equitable manner.
IN summing ZIP Mr. Turner SAYS.
Galveston. in short is now beginning
10 reap the results of five years Of clean
able city government She was desperate
and bankrupt: now her credit is good
She was unclean. now she Is clean. Tn
paved streets are paved. there are good
