Washington, Nov. 23.--The visit OF
j. p. Morgan to Secretary Cortelyou
and the president last night, is gen.
orally accepted here today as evidence
that the financial leaders of New York
intend to cooperate with the treasury
department in making a success Of the
new lonns Assurances brought by
Morgan In regard to the Improvement
in conditions in New York, and with
subscriptions still coming In for the
new loans, encourages the belief here
that the corner has been turned In the
monetary situation and that the banks
of the country will be able to resume
currency payments without rcstric-
tions. The enormous amount OF gold
which arrived or has been engaged Is
felt rather more than sufficient to re-
store the New York bank reserves to
point OF safety. and 1t is believed
that after opening the bids for the
Panama bonds, the situation will be
such that further gold imports Will
not be required.

tional capital. He stated that beyond
question legislation covering the en-
ergency In the financial situation
would be enacted at the coming ses-
sion of congress-; that the situation
now is not serious, owing to the fact
that there is Sill 100000 in gold in the

park commissioners. Judge Howe holds
that the Legislative intent shall RUE
and he believes that the intent or the
legislature was that the new law on
park commissioners was intended to be
in force except in such cities as adopt
this new plan OF government. Then
he believes they are legisated out or

In closing his opinion Judge Howe
states that our system of government
does not contemplate absolute uni
formity of all laws. No two states
have just the same provisions OF law
and no two cities have the same or
dinances To require absolute uni
formity would be Inconsistent with
the ideas of self-government. he
states further that where ever there
is doubt the courts universally hold
In favor OF the constitutionality OF the
statute Considering the law section
by section he finds no respect In wh1ch
it is in conflict with the constitution.
The case was argued on demurrer
of the defendants Ohe city officiais)
to the petition. The court sustains
this demurrer thus holding that the
law is constitutional.

Special to rimes-Republican.
Webster City, Nov. 23.-Believing
that glass from which he drank con-
tanned only water, DR.. w. II. Lundell
Yesterday afternoon was the victim of
a mistake which proved to be a very
serious one, and only by quick action
was he brought thru the ordeal In a
glass used for drinking purposes early
in the afternoon had been placed am
monia in goodly quantity and when
Mr.. Lundell went to take a drink he
had forgotten about the receptacle
containing the ammonia. Water was
drawn into the glass and large por-
ton of the contents swallowed. The
instant the ammonia was taken the
victim was the subject of agony unable
to gain his breath, the powerful drug
burning the tissues of the throat and
mouth, and rendering him unable to
articulate. Gasping for breath and
suffering excruciating pain, DR.. Lun-
dell at once realized his predicament,
ran from his office to the w. L. Fau-
cett drug store, where a restorative
was given. A physician was at once
sent for and 1t was nearly two hours
before the patient was in condition
to be taken to his home.
The ammonia had the effect on Mr..
Lundell's larynx Of causing temporary
paralysis. rendering articulation i'm
possible. However. the patients con-
dition today Is much improved.

REAL BRADLEY TEST
CONES NEXT WEEK
Case Hinges on the Showing
Made Thru Mental Experts
Summoned to Appear
DEFENSE TO COMBAT INSANITY
Much Wranslins Anticipated When
$1,000 Word Question is Propounded
Little Prospect Of Trial Going to
the Jury Until First Week in De-
eember. v

washington. Nov. 23.--Attorneys for
both sides in the Bradley case were
very much engaged today preparing
FOR what all of them hope Will be the
last week Of the famous murder trial
The case will be resumed next Mon
day promptly at 10 o'clock and the
defense will almost immediately en-.
ter upon the presentation of indica'
tions Of insanity on the part OF then
client to experts who have been sum
moned to pass upon the matter in her
behalf. They We're today occupied
in putting the finishing touches upon
tile hypothetical question which they
will PROFOUND to these experts, ana
will have 1t in the best possible shape
when court convenes Monday.
The mere reading Of this question,
containing as it does over 10000 words
will probably consume two hours
time. 1t will be read to the experts,
who, after listening carefully, will
to the mental condition of Mrs. Brad
ley when she fired the fatal shot at
her former lover, ex-senator Brown, OF
Utah. The question will be in effect
Il review of the entire defense IN the
case. It will discuss in detail much
of the testimony and after grouping
all the facts indicating mental aberra-
tion and going to show eccentricity,
insanity, or peculiar physical condt-
5t.ion on the part of ancestors, Will then
try to force the conclusion that Mrs.
Bradley was not responsible at the
time Of the tragedy.
What Prosecutions Will Show.
On the other hand the prosecution
will undertake to combat all these
conditions and to show that defend
ant was not only responsible when she
fired the shot, but that all of her acts
were deliberate; that she came to
Washington with the avowed purpose
of either compelling Brown to marry
her or of killing him. The very
fact Of the woman's conceded brill
liancy of intellect and mental attain
unent, which have been used to arouse
sympathy for her, will be marshaled
against her by District Attorney Baker
and assistants. They not only will
question the alienists who will appear
in Mrs Bradley's behalf, but will in
tro1uce mental experts of their own
to contradict the others. They also
will present testimony in opposition
sto other points brought out by the
defense when they enter upon their
rebuttal.
Can't Finish Next Week.
While all attorneys hope to be able
to conclude the case next week, they
do not by any means feel certain Of
such accomplishment A long wrangle
is expected over the expert testimony.
and even with that out Of the way, re-
butting testimony and the following
presentation on behalf of defense, to
say nothing of the Judges charge and
argument Of counsel, will almost GER
tainly force the case over into the
first week of December.
