CAPTAIN M'VEY ACCUSED.
Larchmont Survivors Say Steamers
 Master Deserted Them.

Providence, k. l., Feb. 20.-Some of the seventeen survivors of the wreck of the steamer Larchmont, near Block island, accuse Captain McVey and his crew of cowardice in leaving the Larchmont before all of the passen- gers were taken off.
 Taking into reckoning the fact that only two women of all those on the boat are among the living, additional color is lent to the accounts of the horror given by the few surviving pas sengers and the charges of cowardice on the part of the crew.
 It is declared that the crew pushed and kicked perishing women about with great brutality as they scrambled for the boats. No children escaped.
 In contradiction of the statement of the survivors, Captain McVey asserts that he had called to the passengers to enter his boat He admitted it was the first to leave the ship and that it had only six of its twenty-two seats filled. His crew corroborate his story.

City Trying to Fird Cause of Disaster
 on Central Railroad.
 New York. Feb. 2O-Arrests of i'm portant officers of the New York Gen. tral road may be made after an invesl tigatiOn bT the coroner and the dis trict attorney into the causes of the frightful disaster on the Harlem divi- sion of the road at Two Hundred and Fifth street, in the Bronx, Saturday evening, when four crowded coaches were overturned while the train was going at high speed.
 Much of the testimony at the open ing of the investigation into the wreck indicated that the disaster was due to the tremendous weight of two of the new electric motors breaking a rail from its fastenings at curve.
 The engineer of the train admitted unfamiliarity with the electric equip ment
 The total of the dead Is twenty-one. Of the injured in the hospitals some are certain to die, according to the at tending physicians. The New York Central read compiled list of the in jurcd. It contains the names of 146 passengers. Most of the dead and in jured lived i'll small towns in West chester county.
 The cause of the disaster was not definitely cleared up either to the sat isfaction of the railroad men or the city officials. A brief official state ment of the result of an investigation by the railroad experts was issued from President Newman's office.
 It explained that there was a break in one of the front wheels of the mo- tor ana also break in the rails
 Charges that the two electric locomo- tiyes were dragging the five frail, old fashioned wooden coaches at rate of speed for which they were not built were made by several White Plains folk, who say the train was going at a dizzy rate.
 Two of the cars overturned burst in to flames. the woodwork catching fire from contact with the third rail. Many who had not been killed outright were burned alive as they lay pinned be heath the wreckage.

JAP CASE AGREEMENT.
Washington and Frisco Authorities
 Settle School Affair.


 Washington, Feb. 20. = Coincident with the passage by the house of the immigration bill with the Japanese amendment, Mayor Schmitz of San Francisco gave out the basis of the agreement reached between President Roosevelt, Secretary Root, himself and the members of the San Francisco school board on the Japanese school controversy. It provides that Japa- nese children are to be admitted to the white schools of San Francisco under certain restrictions, skilled and unskill- ed laborers coming from Japan are barred from the mainland of the Unit ed States, and American laborers, skill ed and unskilled, are to be excluded from Japan.
 The agreement means the schools of San Francisco will be conducted in the same manner as they were before the board of education adopted the reSo- lution last October providing for the segregation of the Japanese except that adult Japanese who are in primary grades must continue to attend the oriental schools, and the Japanese chil- dren under sixteen years of age will be admitted to classes with white chil- dren of their own ages.
 1t was pointed out that where Japa- nese children can not meet the educa- tional requirements special classes will be organized for them in the white schools and also that the clause of the agreement which vests in the principal of the school the discretionary power to reject any applicant for admission to the school is the provision particu- larly aimed to meet the question of ex- cluding Chinese children.

 Nicarasuan Territory by Honduran
 Troops In Pursuit of Rebels-Efforts
 to Preserve Peace Fail.
 Washington, Feb. 20. Dispatches from Managua, Nicaragua, say that the troops of General Bonilla, presi- dent of Honduras, attacked the forces of General Zelaya, president of Nicara- qua, which were guarding the Nicara- guan frontier.
 After many hours fighting the army of Honduras was defeated.
 The trouble between Honduras and Nicaragua may be summarized as fol- lows: In December last number of armed Honduran malcontentS marched toward the frontier of Nicaragua. The government of Honduras sent body of troops in pursuit of the revolu- tionists, who sought refuge on Nicara- guam territory A small body of NJ caraguan troops was sent to patrol the Honduran frontier, and this body of troops was unexpectedly attacked in Nicaraguan territory by force of Honduran soldiers. The Nicaraguans were worsted and many of them kill ed. The forces of Honduras then ad- vanced farther into Nicaraguan terri tory, burning and destroying property.
 Peace Efforts of No Avail.
 President Zelaya of Nicaragua de- handed an indemnity from Honduras. President Bonilla of Hon !ras replied by offering to submit tho matter to arbitration. Zelaya accep d and sent a representative to Salv,.,. ,.or, where the cou- of arbitration agreed at the outset tha; the frontier armies of Hon. duras and Nicaragua should be dis banded. They do not appear to have accepted the finding of the court Diplomatic relations between Nicara- qua and Honduras were broken off. The Honduran government asserted that Nicaragua was aiding the revolu- tionists iii Honduras, and the situa- tion became serious.
 In the meantime the governments of the United States, Mexico, Guate mala, Costa Rica and Salvador brought pressure to hear upon Honduras and Nicaragua ill the hope of keeping them from going to war.

CTS wife that she at first tried to deny her own signature to receipts she had signed for her weekly wages. Under the fire of the district attorneys ques. tions, However, she was finally forced to admit that the writing was hers.
 MT. Jerome brought out that Mrs. Thaw had written to Stanford White from Boulogne after Thaw had pro- posed to her in Paris. Did you also cable Mr. White?' he asked. The wit ness could not remember.
 ''I never wanted to shoot the crea- ture. I never wanted to kill him. knew he was a foul creature, destroy ing the mothers and daughters of means to bring him to trial. I wanted to get him into court-to bring him to justice. But Providence took charge of it. It was an act of Providence"
 This is Harry K. Thaw's own story of the killing of Stanford White. It was told by him to Dr. Britton D. Evans, the alienist, last August in the Tombs
 No indication that Thaw was in- SduC W dS OIOuShl OuI pg dil lbC phy ical tests for mental derangement of fered to him in the Tombs by pr. Evans, said the expert.
 Through the efforts of Mrs. William Thaw differences among the prisoners attorneys were patched up, and Del phin M. Delmas retained his place as leading counsel.
 Thaw's Will Produced.
 In further bulwarking their conten- ton that Thaw was insane when he killed Stanford White. the defendants counsel succeeded in placing before the jury the will executed by Thaw the night of his marriage in April, 1905, and a codicil to the will executed at the same time. Again Mr. Jerome fought the evidence, but he significant ly withdrew his objections after Dr. Evans had given it as his expert opin- ion that Thaw was insane at the time he executed the will.
 The will and the codicil as read to the jurors were offered in evidence as cumulative testimony of Thaw's men, tai unsoundness prior to the killing of White. In his will Thaw provided that his executors should set apart the sum of S5O0OO for the investigation of his death in case of violent or suspicious end and for the prosecution of the per sons suspected of having had hand in his taking off.
 In the codicil Thaw left to Rodey F. Marshall, lawyer in Pittsburg, the sum of $7,500 to be used in securing legal redress from Stanford White and one other person, whose name was not allowed to be read, for the benefit of four young women who, Thaw de- clared, had been made victims in q house furnished and used for orgies by Stanford White and other inhuman scoundrels."
 Dr. Evans, who has been by far the most important witness for the de fense among the medical experts, de- tailed at great length his conversations with Thaw in the Tombs. He told how Thaw declared that his lawyers and physicians were in a conspiracy with the district attorney to railroad" him off to an asylum and to prevent his case from coming to trial. He declared that they wanted to close this matter up."
 A tragic chapter in the history of the Thaw-White episode was written when grim death stepped in to delay the famous trial in its fourth week.
 Mrs. Joseph B. Bolton, wife of juror No. II, died, and it was feared for time that he would be unable to re- sume his place in the jury box.
