New Austrian Railway.

Hitherto tourists from the United
States who chose the southern trip to
Europe left the steamer at Gibraltar
or Naples. but many, chiefly those
who had already been in Italy, now
come to Trieste and continue from
here their voyage by the new Aus
trian railway. There can hardly ba
a more beautiful country than the
regions which are made accessible by
this new Transalpine railroad The
new railway is owned by the state,
and is 130 miles long. There are 40
tunnels, with total length of ten
miles. There are so bridges, one of
which, across the river Izonzo, has
the longest stone span in the world.
There are, besides, as many as 67a

DEFENSE COMPLETES ITS CASE.
Haywood Trial Drawing to a Close on
Evidence.


Boise, Idaho.-The. defense in the
Haywood trial has practically COM
pleted its case except for. the testi-
of its star witnesses, Meyer and Hay
wood Before the president and secre-
tary of the federation go on the wit
ness stand both sides will ask the
judge to strike out a mass of evidence
from the record.
The prosecution undertook to prove
general conspiracy to assassinate.
and the defense attempted to bring to
light a counter conspiracy. Judge
Wood permitted the introduction Of
all kinds of evidence with the warn
ing that he would expect both sides
to connect up" the various stories
with the case at bar. Now each side
insists that the other has failed to
make good.
The courts decisions on these mo-
tions will be very important; in fact,
may determine the issue of the case.
Heretofore Judge Wood has been more
than liberal in his rulings, and neither
side has material complaint to make
Naturally the the forthcoming opinions
are awaited with the greatest anxiety.
Haywood and Meyer should go on
the stand Saturday afternoon or Mon
day mo-ning and their examination
SHOULD occupy several days. 1t is
promised by the defense that neither
man will attempt to conceal anything
and that they will buttress their testi.
'mony with liberal extracts from the
records of the Western Federation OF
Miners.
On rebuttal the state promises many
fresh sensations. Detectives will
swear that the statements made by
Haywood's witnesses are false.
When the case finally goes to the
jury the situation will be narrowed
down to Orchards charges against
Haywood's denials. VIII the jurors be.
lieve the man who swears that for
years he murdered for hire or will
they believe the man who insists that
he never counseled violence in labor
struggle?
The feature of testimony was the
story related by Henry Maxi, a Fin
lander, of indignities sustained by him
at the hands of the military and the
deputies in Telluride This is the man
in the middle of February because he
had refused to perform a loathsome
task.
Mrs. Margaret II. Hooten told of her
experiences in Cripple Creek. Her hus-
band had charge of the miners store.
He was thrown into Jail and the store
was looted by the military and depu
ties.
Mrs. Hooten does not weigh more
than 100 pounds, and as the little wo-
man related her story one could not
repress thrill of admiration. She said
she had insisted upon her rights after
her husband was arrested. She was
twice arrested for distributing relief to
the starving families of miners. but she
persisted in her good work. She de-
fed Nelson Franklin, Judge McGarry
and Frank Woods, although they
warned her that she would be de.
ported as soon as they could secure an
order from the general in command
The second time she was brought be-
fore these gentlemen, who at that time
were running things for the Mine
Owners Association, she found them
playing poker Il had to wait until
some one had won the jackpot" she
explained and even Judge Wood
smiled at the sally.

New In Wall Paper.

A new design in fancy wall paper
patterns comes from Kansas City;
also a way to utilize cancelled checks.
A firm has had all it's offices papered
with old checks. placed neatly edge
checks vary from 100000 to $1,000,
and the total for one room is sS000,-
900. AS a gilt moulding runs around
the edges of each check-panel, the
general effect is rather pleasing.

ADVANCE PLANS
FOR IMPROVING
POINT JUDITH

To carry out the plans of the naviga-
ton conference made last April with ref
erence 10 the harbor OF refuge at Poipt
Judith and tho safeguarding of vessels
passing that point. a permanent commit
tee was appointed az a meeting held yes
terday afternoon at the New York board
OF trade and transportation in New York.
The committee comprises Admiral J. n.
Coghlan, N. b. Kelly OF Philadelphia.
Capt c. b. Parsons. Prof. Charles
sprague Smith, q. Waldo Smith and Lew
Is Nixon OF New York. and is for the pur-
pose of watching legislation and work re-
isting TO that harbor. with tho view OF
properly protecting the safety OF passen
gers and commerce in that connection.
Among the recommendations which tho
new committee hopes 10 have carried out
are the placing OF new lighthouse at
Point Judith on the apex of the main
breakwater; an accessible landing place
or pier for the harbor OF refuge and an
other on the easterly shore over the Point
Judith breakwater; the transfer OF the
life-saving station itself 10 the easterly
arm and It's equipment with wireless te-
legraphy; the supplying of a large motor
vessels in distress; and the statiopns
there OF a revenue cutter, equipped With
wireless telegraph and apparatus ready
10 aid vessels in distress.
Improvement OF the harbor through the
removal of obstructions to navigation re-
naming therein, and the construction OF
the proposed westerly breakwater for the
protection of shipping and the preserva-
ton of the harbor are also favored.
The action taken by the navigation con-
gress followed the Larchmont disaster in
Block Island sound OF last February and
was the first real move taken for the pu
tative prevention OF the recurrence OF an
other such cvatastrophe in the neighbor-
hood of Point Judith.
The committee also passed resolutions
fsvoring the licensing OF the masters 0z
sailing vessels OF 900 tons or over and for
the making or regulations requiring the
use OF appliances for the rapid launch OF
lifeboats on all passenger craft.
II is proposed that such license shall be
based on knowledge OF the rules OF the
road and good character. although IL
censes shall be issued without examina-
ton to masters OF good character who
have five years experience in sailing ves-
sells.
