matter Of the admission Of letter
written by Thaw to J. Dennison Lyon,

that Evelyn Ncsbit Thaw will be called
tomorrow briefly to combat the testi-

Attorney jerome limited this afternoon
that an important witness for.the pro-

that half-day's session tomorrow

either side. An adjournment then will
be taken until Thursday morning,
when Mr.. Delmas will begin his sum-
ming up speech. He will have all of
Thursday to himself and Mr.. Jerome
will reply Friday. Justice Fitzgerald
may charge the jury that evening, or
he may for the first time hold court
Saturday in order to conclude the case
before the week ends.
AS an interesting INDICATION Of the

White pine is the most valuable tim
Der for packing cases. but the supply

The national bureau of forestry has
suggested that manufacturers in New

their own white pine and have taken
steps to interest farmers in this indus
try.
AS important to the manufacturers

of which cartons are made, have stead
lily increased 20 per cent. in the last
year and it is said another advance is
coming. Shoe manufacturers particu-

mand for candy, breakfast foods and
