For Pure Food.

Although on its fist vote yesterday it
lacked a constitutional majority in the
house and consequently the emergency
clause failed, senate bill No. 167 was later
passed.

which embrace the unfolding of stand

and Evelyn ThaW.
SUR-REBUTTAL OF DEFENSE
MURDER CASE WILL LAST SEW
ERAL DAYS.

New York. March 16-Attorney Del
phin NJ. Delmas conferred with his as
sociates in the defense of Harry X.
Thaw today. mapping out plans for the
sur-rebuttal work at the trial, which,
when resumed Monday, will be enter
ing its ninth week. Applications were
made today to the. district attorneys
office for several additional subpOenaes
for the defense.
Probably the greater part Of next
week viii be consumed by the defense,
and the case may not go TO the jury
until March %.
Jerome's Final Bit of Evidence.
When the court convenes Monday Mr..
Jerome viii present the last bit of evil
dence he has for the prosecution. He
viii renew his request of Friday after
noon that Justice Fitzgerald admit the
Photographic and carbon copies of the
affidavit Evelyn is said to have made
in Abraham Hummers office. This af-
fidavit, Mr.. Jerome contends, is COM
petent in order to contradict the state
nent that Mrs. Thaw was drugged and
betrayed by Stanford White. In il the
young woman is said TO have sworn
that the stories concerning White were
untrue, and that Harry Thaw beat her
when she told him that there was no
truth in the statement that White had
betrayed her.
Jury Must Decide.
Justice Fitzgerald, having permitted
Hummel and his clerk to testify as to
the making of the affidavit, evidently
intends to allow Mr.. Jerome to put the
papers in evidence and read whatever
of the contents he desires to go TO the
jury Attorney Delmas said yesterday
that the defense probably would offer
no objection to this. He referred to the
questionable shape in which this evil
dence comes" and apparently will con-
tent himself with the attack he made
upon the credibility OF Hummel as q
witness. AR. Delmas will probably
have young Mrs. Thaw take the stand
and repeat that she did not know the
contents of the paper. II will then be
for the jury to decide between the
prisoners wife and the convicted law

pointment by the governor of a fire
and police commission for Salt Lake,
was done. to death in the senate yes
terday by its friends.
Senator Peter Clegg, who has been
carrying out the orders of Boss Spry
and the federal crowd, was the execu-
toner. He moved that it be laid on
the table.

these measures will ever come back
to life again during the present session.
Machine Feared Results.
The reason for the action on the part
of Senator Clegg is that the federal ma
chine came to the conclusion that II
would DE bad politics to force the meas
ure in the face of the strong opposition.
The senator's in league with SpFy and
/ the federal machine were fearing a roll
call. hating to commit themselves. and
/ all things taken into consideration. il
was thought best to drop the measure
at least for the present session of the
] legislature. t~
In explaining the sudden change of
front, Senators Clegg and Williams
stated that upon careful consideration
they had decided that the law is un-
/ constitutional.
There is general feeling of relief in
| the senate that the bill was thus dis
posed of. Feeling ran high on the
| question and, as one senator. expressed
il: If that bill had come up for debate
