WOULD DELAY ACTION
PRESIDENT ASKS CALIFORNIA
LAWMAKERS TO SUSPEND
JAP LEGISLATION,

Sacramento, CAL, March 12.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has again appealed to
the legislature of California to stop all
Japanese legislation. The president
has sent telegram to Governor Gil.
lette urging that the legislature sus-
pend all Japanese legislation and ex-
pressing the fear that the action of
the senate Saturday in passing the
two Japanese bills and a resolution
may render ineffective his efforts to
secure exclusion of Japanese laborers
by friendly agreement with Japan.
The governor transmitted the presi'
dents telegram to the assembly, where
action was to have been taken on the
two bills and the resolution adopted
by the senate, with a message recon-
mending and urging that the presi
dents request be acceded to.
On Stanton's motion the assembly
by viva voce vote decided to take nc
action on the bills on file,

there was no indication of the ap-
preaching end. He received a few
followers and prayed for some people.
His condition seemed to be about the
same as for the last two or three
weeks. One of the attendants re-
NAMED with him until midnight and
was relieved by the other attendant.
Shortly before / a. m. Dowie became
delirious and his talk was the same
as at religious meeting in the days
Of his prime. He denounced people
with the old time vigor, ordered the
guards to throw out disturbers and
acted just as he had on so many pre-
vious occasions. He gradually became
weaker and weaker and the attendant
telephoned for Judge D. N. Barnes,
who reached Shiloh House at a. m.
Forty minutes later Dowie died.

FIFTEEN MEN PERISH
GREEK LABORERS MEET DEATH
IN THE PITT RIVER IN
CALIFORNIA.

Redding, CAL, March 12.-Fifteen
men lost their lives in the treacherous
Pitt river in the afternoon. The men
were all Greeks employed in the con-
struction crews of the Sacramento
Valley and Eastern railroad, building
from the Delamar copper smelter to
the new station of Bonita, on the
Southern Pacific, three miles above
Kennel. The men started to cross the
river on the new ferryboat of the COM
pany.
When the boat had reached the mid
die of the stream the Greeks punched
upon the end of the boat. This
caused the boat to rise on end and the
men were thrown back. The boat
was overbalanced and every man slid
of into the water. The ferryman and
the foreman were saved. Two other
men gained the nearest shore, but fif
teen of the Greeks went down.

'ames and Philip Strother Declared
Not Guilty Of Murder.
Culpsper, Va, March s.-James and
Philip Strother, who have been on
trial here for the past two weeks
charged with the murder of their
brother-in-law, William F. Bywaters,
nave been pronounced not guilty by
the jury. The twelve men who tried
the case spent an hour and thirty-two
minutes in reaching their verdict.
The announcement of the verdict of
not guilty was the signal for an out
burst of approval, which Judge Harri-
son quickly silenced. James Strother
reached for the hand of Mr.. Moore,
one Of his counsel, and Philip was
quickly surrounded by the friends who
nave stood by the brothers since the
opening of the trial.
When the effects of the critical mo.
ment passed Judge Harrison ad-
dressed the jury as follows:
gentlemen of the jury, thank you
Tor a verdict which 1 think will be
approved by the public. It is an es.
tabl1shed precedent in the state OF
Virginia that no man tried for defend.
Ing the sanctity of his home should bt
found guilty"

IN HER SONS BEHALF.
Mother Of Harry Thaw Testifies in
Murder Trial.

Mother Of Harry Thaw Testifies in
Murder Trial.
New York, March 7.-Another dra-
matte chapter was added to the trial
Of Harry K. Thaw for the murder of
Stanford White when the mother of
the defendant took the witness stand
to contribute what she might toward
fore the jury was brief. Mr.. Delmas
limited her examination to the change
she had noted in her sons condition
following his return from Paris in
1903, after Evelyn Nesbit had told
him her life story, and the district at
torney conducted short and ineffect-
ual minatiOn.
She said that when Harry came
home in 1903 he seemed depressed and
apparently had lost interest in life. He
passed sleepless nights, would often
leave the table at meals and go into
the parlor to play upon the piano, the
music growing softer and softer until
it finally died away. She told in a
motherly way of her solicitude for the
boy.
HE told me wicked man-prob-
ably the wickedest man in all New
York-had ruined his life''
It was not until some time after he
had offered this explanation that she
learned the story of the young woman
who was to become her daughter-in-
law.
Mrs. Thaw told of her son breaking
down at church in Pittsburg because
the young woman he loved could not
! be at his side. Mrs. Thaw told of
coming to New York to meet Evelyn
Nesbit and of giving her consent to
her sons marriage-the one condition
being that the girls past life in New
York should be closed book.

New York, March 12.-On the first
day of the states case in rebuttal at
the trial of Harry K. Thaw, District
Attorney Jerome came to temporary
standstill against the practically solid
wall the rules of evidence have built
around the story Of Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw. Mr.. Jerome began to attack
this story as soon as court opened In
the morning There ensued we'll
nigh ceaseless battle between the
prosecutor and D. M. Delmas, the lead.
ing counsel for the defense, at the end
of which Justice Fitzgerald upheld the
rule laid down at the beginning Of the
trial-that Mrs. Thaw's story was ad.
missable only as tending to show the
effect it might have had in unbalanc.
ing the defendants mind and that its
truth or falsity is not material
Nine-tenths of the days sessions
were spent in argument and in nearly
every instance when the smoke of con.
flict cleared away Mr.. Delmas had won
his point as to the law, while Mr.. Je.
rome in the very argument itself had
got before the jury perfect knowl
edge as to what his witnesses would
have testified to had they been per.
mitted. The district attorney called
ten witnesses during the day but
aside from drawing from the states
eye witnesses to the tragedy the opin
ion that Thaw seemed rational the
night he killed White, little real head
