Wants TO Do What He Declared
Weeks Ago Would Not Be
Possible.
TRIES TO IMPEACH MRS. THAW
He Practically Gets the Desired Evi.
dence Before the Jury.
But 1t Is All Ruled Out - DeImas
Quotes the Prosecutors Own
Words Against His Of
fered Testimony.

New York, March 12.-On the first
day Of the states case in rebuttal at
the trial Of Harry X Thaw District
Attorney Jerome came to a temporary
standstill against the practically solid
wall the rules of evidence have built
around the story Of Mrs. Harry Thaw.
Jerome began to attack this story as
soon as court opened. There ensued a
well-nigh ceaseless battle between the
prosecutor and Delmas, at the end OF
which Justice Fitzgerald upheld the
rule laid down at the beginning of the
trial-that Mrs. Harry Thaws story
was admissible only as tending to
show the effect it might have had IN
unbaIancing the defendants mind. and
that its truth or falsity is not mate
rial.
viii Try to Prove an AIibi.
Jerome tried to avoid this rule by
declaring he was endeavoring mere
ly to show by inference-by circum-
stantial evidence as to facts and de-
tails in the story-that Mrs. Thaw
could not possibly have told the story
to her husband. Although twill doubt
less be blocked by the same rule when
the time comes, it is said, the district
attorney may attempt in the same way
to prove an, abb for Stanford White
on the night he is alleged to have raped
Miss Nesbit.
Did Each Gain His Point?
Nine-tenths Of the session were spent
in argument, and in nearly every in
stance when the smoke of conflict
cleared away Delmas had won his
point as to the law while Jerome in
the very argument itself had got be-
fore the jury a perfect knowledge as
to what his witness would have testi-
fed to had they been permitted. The
district attorney called ten witnesses
during the day, but aside from draw
ing from the states eye-witnesses to
the tragedy the opinion that Thaw
seemed rational the night he shot and
killed Stanford White little real head
way was made
Judges Instructions to Come.
There is one fly in Jerome's ONT
Inent, however. Although he did get
what he wanted before the jury the
judges Instructions are to be reckoned
with. If the judge sticks to his rulings
he will particularly instruct the jury
that all this evidence to which objec-
ticns was sustained must be absolute
~ thrown out Of the jury's mind in
making up it's verdict.

In Indiana labor is respected and it's
interests always safeguarded SO far as
possible by laws wisely enacted, and

Capital Must Behave itself.
''We will keep open the avenues to
free and just competition, but we will
restrain within appropriate limits these
agencies or combinations which may
seek to disregard fair laws Of trade
and competition, and to override the In
terests of the body of the people. Cap
ital which is properly employed will
be properly protected, and that which
is not so engaged must fall under the
sharp condemnation Of the law. Our
state should stand as a model state
where fair dealing shall be the rule

Soldier The lecture was a de-
scription of humorous events which
Doctor Bell said curiously enough
have not fonnd their way into his.
tory, but ought to be there. He
confessed that his most brilliant
military tactics were performed his
career as first lieutenant of a foreign
squad, for his was the banner
squad in the division. He denies
emphatically that hunger never Wis
tied his camp even in the busiest
days along the Shenandoah. After
bait an hour Of ripping humor and
good sense, the speaker told of the
reformed soldier who knows the
reasons for his faith. Then he al
luded to the ascent of San Juan by
General Joe Wheeler and Theodore
Roosevelt as an evidence that pa.
triotism has melted American inter
estss so that in danger the highes
thing an American cares to see i!

The Gallup Oil Scare

Within the past ten days sew
eral thousand acres of land in
Mckinley county, n. M, have
been located by an organization
of capital. The land is located
in thee belt near Gallup and
was taken with the intention of
development. 1t is said a drill
ing outfit is on the road to Gal
lup to be taken at once to the
oil fields and put in operation.
Eastern people are behind this
move, and the taking up of this
land and the organization of the
project was done quietly. The
prospecting of the newcomers to
the oil fields is to be thorough,
and they intend to prove wheth-
er there is oil there or not. A
noted oil expert, who went over
the ground some months ago,
stated that he considered the
prospects very good and that
the surface indications were tar
better than in many places that
are now sending out a steady
flow of the Gil.
There is also a project on foot
to do something with the fire
clay found so abundantly IN that
part of the country.

not to accept the compromise OF

increase in wages offered by the
western railway operating Off
cials at the recent meeting in
Chicago. The men, however,
modified their demand and now
ask for a nine-hour day and a II

original demand was for a 15
per cent increase and an eight
hour day. General Manager J..

domain approximately 100000

was part of a withdrawal aggre-

the withdrawal experts of the

gagged in ascertaining the coal
bearing value of the withdrawn
lands, and while the lands to be
restored to entry are still classl-
fed as coal lands, it is under
stood their value as such does
not warrant their exclusion from
