Post Office Reforms.

Washington, April 3-Senator Car
ter OF Montana. member of the COM
mission appointed to consider bet
terment of the post office department
said today that it had been charged
that the money order depart ment is
losing $1,000 per day. While the
commission has not found the state
ment substantiated the senator be-
lteved that there was much laXity in
bureaus of the postal service that
ought to be remedied. For instance,
it Is said, the government loses Z
cents on every pound of second class
newspapers carried. When the COM
mission called on the department for
an explanation il found that the off,
Gals had no means of giving any ac-
curate Information on It, All was
guess work, he said. Expert account
ants will be employed to go over the
records and see if the charges can
be substantiated.
There is a proposition for the ap-
pointment Of q director of posts, who
is to hold has position irrespective of
any change in the Office Of the post
master general, which the senator
admitted had some merit and the
commission will consider the pronri-
city of recommending the creation of
such an Office

Smoot during his address today said
in part: First / desire to state as

Il pOlygamist / never had but one
wife and she is my present wife" He
said polygamy never was obligatory
upon the members OF the Mormon
church but was only permissible; that
since il was forbidden by law the prac-
tice Of polygamy for the future was
abandoned by the church. POlygamy
is gradually dying out. At the time
of the manifesto there were 245l
polygamous households in the church,
and now there are not To exceed five
hundred. Concluding he said: an
closing, let me say under my obliga-
tions as a senator what / have said
under my oath before the committee.
that I never have taken any oath or
obligation. religious or otherwise, which
conflicts in the slightest degree with
my duty as a senator or citizen. I owe

Mrs. Thaw's confidence grew as the
cross examination went on and she
was always ready with answers
Jerome. under the plea of testing her
credibility was allowed to ask many
pertinent questionsy He wanted To
know when she first heard she had
been named as correspondent in the
George ". Lederer divorce case. Del
mas quickly objected Mrs Thaw
whispered something in his ear and
attorney withdrew his objection
Il read Of it in the newspapers
said the witness cheerily. when Jerome
repeated the qustion.
The prosecutor sought to show that
Mrs. Thaw had gone to Lawyer Hum
mel for advice with regard to divorce
proceedings but was halted by an OBJ
lection from Delmas. which the court
sustained. Justice Fitzgerald said the
question had nothing to do with Mrs.
Thaw's story to her husband and did
not affect her credibility.
Jerome brought out that Mrs. Thaw
had written to White from Boulogne

Did you also cable White?" he
asked The witness could not remem-
Der.
The cross examination had barely
gotten into full swing when an ad-
journment for the day was ordered.
Mrs. Thaw will resume the stand to-
morrow and the indications are that
she may be kept there throughout the
day
The district attorneys decision to
subject Mrs. Thaw TO cross examina-
tiOn again lent color to the rumors
that Jerome still contemplates NOV
ing for the appointment Of a com
mission in lunacy TO test Thaw's pres
ent state of mind. Now that he has
entered the cross examination he
seems determined to make a thorough
one.
There We're evidences during the af-
ternOon of i'll feeling existing between
Jerome and Delmas. The latter in
tends to protect Mrs. Thaw in every
possible way He moved from his
accustomed place at the table to 4

attorney sits.
In completing the direct testimony
Mrs. Thaw told of the conversations
she and her husband had regarding
the fate of young women at the hands
of White. One of these known as the

The Very Easy and Decisive Defeat of the
Reputation Project
The Council Unexpectedly Early Agrees Upon an
UnimpOrtant Modification of the Houses Prison
Commission BILL

The speech of Mr.. Bunch of Marico-
pa on the bill for the repeal of the tax
exemption laws was in refreshing con-
trast to the anarchistic utter ances
which have marked the consideration
of the sO-called railroad legislation.
Though Mr.. Bunch has generally been
on the side of the opponents of the
roads he said that the time had come
10 call 4 halt or At least TO stop long
enough to give some deliberation to the
matters in hand. He was minded to
illustrate his point regarding the ad-
visibility OF taking notice Of the stages
along the route. by the story Of the old
lady who was travelling southwark
from the upstate counties. Just after
the train had left the station at Pough-
keepsie she asked the conductor, who
was hurrying through the car. when
the train would reach POughkeepsie.
The conductor jerked the bellcord, say
ing that this was Poughkeepsie and
signalled for the train to back up to
the station. When it came to a stop
he noticed the old lady sitting quietly.
He asked her if she did not intend to
get off.
Why, no." she replied; I've got a
ticket for Brooklyn"
why, then" asked the conductor.
did you have me stop the train here?"
i didn't" replied the. old lady. Il
only wanted to know where the town
was, for my daughter told me before
left home that it would be time to take
the next dose of pills When the train
got to POughkeepsie."
The point desired TO be made by Mr.
Bunch was that though it might not
be desirable to stop railroad legislation
entirely, this was a good place to take
a dose Of pills.

bill the business Of opening the debate

lie Enters Upon Rigid Gross Examination
of the Prisoners Wife
Plan of Attack Intended Not Only Upon
Her Credibility Bnt to Lay Bare Her Brief But
TumultuOus Career.

New York, Feb. 19.-Mrs. Thaw to-
day entered on the ordeal of cross. ex-
animation and before Jerome had the
witness in charge half an hour he had
secured from the court a ruling which
apparently opens the way for bringing
into the trial all manner of evidence
which may tend to discredit the de-
fendants wife. Heretofore it had been
held that the rules Of evidence protect
ed Mrs. Thaw and that. regardless
whether her story was true. or false
the fact that she had told ii to her
husband was the one essential point
Mrs. Thaw had been allowed TO re-
peat her story so that the jury might
Judge as To its effect in unbalancing
the mind of the man on trial. Jerome
by a simple question opened the way
for the Introduction Of testimony tend
ing to show the truth of falsity of
Mrs. Thaw's story.
He asked the witness: 'XYas the
story you told Thaw true?"
1T was" she replied firmly.
Delmas. Thaw's leading counsel OBJ
jected strongly to the question but the
judge held it TO be competent as tend
ing to show the credibility of the wit
ness.
Delmas will continue to fight with
constant objections to the introduction
Of any testimony as to any events in
the young woman's life, but the sub
ject Of the c-edibility of a witness is
a wide one and Judge Fitzgerald indi-
Gated that he would be liberal in his
Interpretation of the rules.
He allowed Jerome to secure from
Mrs. J. J. Caine of Boston. a friend
IF Mrs. Thaw. who took the witness
stand during the morning session,
many material points as TO the move
ments Of Thaw and Evelyn Nesbitt,
following their return from Europe. in
Guiding the published incident of their
being elected from the Hotel Cumber-
land in this city. the proprietor insist
ing that they should register as man
and wife or leave their suites. which
adjOined. In bringing out these facts
Jerome denied that ne was attacking
Mrs. Thaw but said he was simply
testing the credibilitv Of Mrs. Caine.
The district attorney seemed reluct-
ant to begin the cross examination Of
Mrs. Thaw today. desiring TO have the
matter postponed until Thursday in
order that he might determine wheth-
er a further examination of the wit
ness was necessary on the issues in
vOlved in the case.
Mrs. Thaw nervOusly awaited
Jerome's opening questions. They had
to do with her signing papers, some of
which the prosecutor declared were re-
ceipts for money Mrs. Thaw had drawn
from the Mercantile Trust company in
1902. S25 a week. Delmas protested
that Mrs. Thaw said that she was not
sure all the signatures We're her own.

AGRICULTURAL BILL TRIMMED.

Washington. Feb. 19.-Discusslng
the agricultural appropriation bill in
the senate today Mr.. Aldrich said he
had been informed that 1856 employees
had been taken into the government
service by the department of agricul-
ture since the present session of con-
gress began.
Senator Proctor admitted that very
many employees had been admitted TO
the force of the department, but the
additions had been necessary to en-
force the pure food bill meat inspec-
tion laws.
Mr.. Clark made q successful war
on the senate amendment which he
declared would permit officials of the
forestry bureau to travel from the
north pole to the southern cross at
the expense of the government. In
this connection he gave instances
where the chief forester had gone to
the far west and rounded up" two
conventions of cattlemen with eigh-
teen forest rangers. whose travelling
expenses the government paid. He
also charged them with attending po-
litical conventions and state legisla-
lures ana WIN BeheTdl dcINllN VI
that character at the expense of the
government. He asserted that while
his confidence in the chief forester
and the secretary of agriculture was
Unbounded. he believed under the
terms of the amendment that the
S2,000,0OO proposed to be appropriated
for this bureau might be used TO pay
travelling expenses also. The prOpos-
ed amendment, which was voted out
of the bill. authorized the forester to
conduct Investigations and expert
ments in the city of Washington or
elsewhere.
