New York, March 1s.-It now {:
appears that the Thaw case will 60 {:
to the jury within two weeks. The {:
prosecution has practically fin- {:
ished its rebuttal with the excep. {:
ton Of its experts and tonight {:
Jerome will have examined all Of {:

their answers to the hypothetical {:
question that, In their opinions, {:
Thaw was sane when he shot {:
Stanford White. {:
1t Is doubtful whether any Of {:
Mr.. Jerome's witnesses, other than {:
the alfenists, will be allowed to {:
testify. {:
New York, March 13.-There was
but short session today of the court
trying Harry X. Thaw for the murder
of Stanford White, the adjournment
being taken shortly after noon until
1890 o'clock tomorrow morning. This
action was taken partly to give Del
mas an opportunity to consult authori-
ties and prepare an argument in reply
to an impassioned appeal by District
Attorney Jerome for the admission of
testimony by Abraham Hummel in
contradiction Of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw's
evidence, characterized by Jerome as
the central support of the defense and
partly on the statement of Jerome that
If he were allowed the afternoon in
which to complete the hypothetical
question to be put to his experts, he
thought the state could close its case
in rebuttal tomorrow night. He said
he had been assured by Delmas that
his cross-examination of the alienists
would not be long.
The matter of Hummel's testifying
was yet undecided. Jerome spoke for
more than an hour today in contending
that Hummel's testimony is most vital
in the case.
II will show" declared the district
attorney, "that this woman who was
Evelyn Nesbit, swore under the solem-
nifty of an oath, that she had been
beaten by Thaw in Paris because she
would not sign papers he had pre-
pared and which falsely accused Stan
ford White of drugging and betraying
her."
"If she did not tell that story" con-
cluded Jerome" then the cause of this
mans insanity disappears and the
hypothetical question on which learn
ed experts for the defense based their
opinion as to his insanity disappears.
l claim the right to show that Evelyn
Nesbit herself has denied the story
she told this jury.
New York, March 13.-James Clinch
Smith, Stanford Whites brother-in-
law, was called again as a witness in
the Thaw trial this morning. Smith
was questioned by Delmas for the de-
fense as to a cablegram from Jerome,

Educative "Art.D

FROM tHe bFookiyH EaSle.
Columbia University is to be consratu-
lated on the exhibition of Russian revolu-
tionary cartoons, which was opened in the
university library recently. The pictures
have no dreamy charm; none of them q
lovely" and many of them are not art at
all. But no pictorial show in this city ever
had greater educatve value.
Few Americans know much about Rus
sian history or Russian conditions. Still
fewer have any knowledge of the Russian
language And the history making epoch
of the past two years is the binder to our
people because we have come to depend on
the newspaper for our information; and a
really satisfactory analysis OF the Russian
situation would be too complex and too
historical to find or force for itself the
concession of newspaper space. Our Ameri-
can masses see in the great white car the
apotheosis of tyranny; in the Cossack' s
whip, and the deliberately applied knout
and the horror of Siberia the agencies of
unbridled power. The transations of Rus
sian literature have never been popular
enough to create a general conception Of
the society framework which is racked
and shaken by the revolutionary move
ment. The average Yankee can under
stand a rebellion successful or rebellion
crushed. What puzzles him is the absence
of either ineligible condition in Russia

Caging Microbes.
from the New York World.


A certain lady riding a few days
ago on a street car. Its atmosphere being
even more fetid than usual she finally
asked the conductor whether he did not
realize that keeping all his ventilators tight
shut was very injurious to the health of
the passengers. He replied that there was
SO much pneumonia about that he dared
not keep the ventiators open for fear the
germs might get into the car through them
When the lady eXpla med to him that it
the passengers who brought the germs
into the car and that the closed ventilators
merely served to cage them in ever-increas-
ing multitudes inside the car he was as
tonished at the novelty of this theory.
Although he muttered that he could not
open anything anyway, because the pas
sengers would object, yet after he had
ruminated awhile over the original point
of view that had just been submitted to
him he furtively entered the car and sur
"reptitiously opened one ventilator.
This story draws its own conclusion. If
the powers that pack the street cars would
only realize that they cannot collect
nickels from microbes, and that, on the
other hand, microbes can collect passengers
from them, they would issue strict orders
to all their conductors to keep the ven
tilators open. Their passengers would soon
become educated out of the dread of fresh
air and great many of them would be
saved from pneumonia and the last long
transfer

Cotton Spinning Boom
In English Spind1es

y ~ MANCHESTER, March I. 1907.
K 1EW mills for the manufacture Of cot
IN ton cloths are springing up like
mushrooms in the Lancashire dis
trict. of which this city is the commercial
center 1t is plainly apparent that the esti-
mates of a record crop of American cotton
this year is mainly responsible for the
present boom. Nearly a score of new mills
have been begun this year, and a review of
the past seven years shows that more than
a hundred new mills have been established
in this vicinity. These new factories, to-
gether with large number of extensions
and additions to existing mills, when fully
completed, will have increased the manu-
featuring capacity of this district by over
100000 spindles This increase in seven
years exceeds the total number of existing
cotton spindles in Germany, France, Rus
STA, India or any other country in the world
except the United States. 1t is, however,
even greater than the total number of spin
dies in the southern states, and equal to
about 60 per cent of the spindlage of the
northern states.
A tabulated list of these new mills shows
that about fSO0O,O0 in money (S40, 00o,00O)
has been involved as capital The year
1905, at the time of a record-breaking
American cotton crop, saw the greatest
boom of recent years in British spinning.
Forty large factories were added that year,
One of the mills about to be opened is
claimed to be 1.-The quickest built mill of
equal capacity in the world This is the
Drake spinning mill, at Farnworth, near
Bolton. 1t will contain 10000 spindles for
the production of fine yarns spun from
Egyptian-grown cotton. The building was
commenced just year ago-it is six sto-
ries high and thirty or more windows in
length-and it is now filled with machinery
and will be running soon.
X \
1t is noticeable that all of the new facto-
ries are in towns around Manchester rather
than in the city itself. Manchester, much
to the satisfaction Of the majority of its
residents is becoming more of an empo-
rum and less of an actual center of manu-
facture.
While all this boom in British cotton
spinning is going on, the crop estimates of
American cotton are increasing, some lead
ing authorities believing that the yield this
season will be close upon IA 000, 600 bales, or
500, 600 bales more than the record year of
1904-05.
If this be the output Manchester manu-
facturers say, 1t will be a good thing for
the world, for more spindles are going
down to consume American cotton. 1t is
rather strange that while supplies all over
the world are increasing to a rather larger
extent, prices are simultaneously going
higher and higher. The consumption of
cotton is at it's height. Every spindle in the
world is running at full speed, and there is,
notably in this district, big profit on
every pound spun.
