breaches MEMORIAL AT
NEW JERUSALEM CHURCH

At the New Jerusalem church yes
terday morning the pastor, Rev. ]. E.
| Collom, spoke in memory of the de-
parted. His tevt was: And I heard a
voice from heaven saying, Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord from
henceforth; yea, saith the Spirit, that
they may rest from their labors; and
their works do follow them. (Rev.
xiv. 13) The service was in memory
of those who had passed to the higher
life during the year. In substance the
minister said
This is a divine assurance that those
who have lived in charity will enjoy
resurrection into eternal life, being
free from temptation and evil The
whole Christian world at this season
Is lifting its thought to the unseen life,
to the sphere of our departed loved
ones. Natural death is but resurrec-
ton. When the body dies man efises
again as to his spirit. Death is simply
continuation of life in the spiritual
world-a more interior and perfect life.
I'VE enter the valley of humiliation
now that we may be raised to the
mountain of joy hereafter. We fight
the great fight of faith now that we
may wear the crown of wisdom, pur-
ity and life in the church triumphant
1T is consoling to know that each
service of love we do now will go with
US. No good deed is ever destroyed
1t is eternal because wrought in God
When we put away wrong-doing
that we may keep the Lords precepts
when we show loving kindness be-
cause God is merciful, when we shur
perfidy, fraud, lying impurity and dis
content because these are wicked
things-then, indeed are we laying III
for our future use a goodly store OF
heavenly riches"

oHlo'S CREST NOT
FAR AWAY. BUT
DAMAGE is HEAVY
By Associated Press.

by Associated HTeSS.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, March H.
With stage of sixty-one feet at
o'clock this evening it was believed
that the crest of the Ohio flood was
not far away.
Forecaster Bassler has placed the
probable crest at not less than sixty
three feet. but his estimates anticipated
its arrival some time tomorrow after
noon.
The damage done by the flood may
far exceed that in the January flood,
because of the unusually large amount
of mud carried by the river at this
time.
The present flood, however, has come
from unprecedentedly heavy rains on
soft soil. the result being an excess
sive amount of mud, which has set
tied on all that it covered, so that the
loss will go far in excess of winter
| flood.
The suffering has probably been
somewhat lessened by the milder
weather, although many thousand per-
sons have been driven from their
fering by the rising waters.
1t is understood that the worst is
over at points above here.
The city suffered a loss of about
$15OOOO early in the day by the COL
lapse of the Eighth street viaduct over
the railroads of the Mill creek section
of the city. Three fifty-foot spans of
this viaduct went down into the flood,
but the high water is not believed to
have been the sole cause of the dis
aster.
Various traction lines using the via
duct are put to much inconvenience.

MERELY BY ACCIDENT
President VIII Have Busy Week at
the White House Discussing the
Railroad Situation with
Officials of Roads
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 17.-Secre-
tary Loeb tonight denied published
statements that the White House con-
ference in which Governor Charles S.
Deneen and Attorney General Stead
of Illinois participated was for the pur-
pose of promoting the candidacy or
Secretary Taft for the presidency
The story originated, it is said, from
the fact that Secretary Taft and his
brother, Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati,
called at the executive office While the
president was in conference with the
illinois officials and were introduced
to the presidents visitors.
The only reference made to politics
during the conference was that the
president asked Governor Deneen re-
garding the mayoralty fight in Chi
cago.
B. F. Yoakum, chairman of the board
of directors of the Chicago, Rock Island
& Pacific railroad, who conferred with
President Roosevelt last week on the
railroad situation, will visit the White
House again this week. Mr. Yoakum,
who has announced himself unreserv-
edly in favor of close cooperation be-
tween the railroads and the federal
government, again will urge the presi-
outlining his attitude toward the rail-
roads.
President Charles s. Mellen OF the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad, will call on the president
Tuesday afternoon, and 1t is still the
belief in official circles that the other
three railroad presidents with whom
]. Pierpont Morgan requested the
president to discuss the railroad situa-
tion will come to Washington this
week. President Mellen has made 1t
plain to a cabinet officer with whom
he has communicated that he will visit
the White House as an individual and
will not undertake to represent
Messrs. McCrea, Newman and Hughitt
or the railroad corporations generally
AS yet none of the other three presi-
dents has asked Mr.. Roosevelt to re-
ceive him. though 1t is believed some
word may be received from Mr.. Hughltt
tomorrow.

THAW'S

WERE HARMLESS
Former sehooImate Sends Statement
to Counsel for Whites Slayer,
Which viii Be Used In
the Famous Trial
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March Hilary X.
Thaw spent quiet Sunday In the
Tombs.
This afternoon Lawyer Dan O'Reilly
visited Thaw and helped him prepare
in duplicate a statement sent from
Lewellyn Gilliland of Van Vert, o.,
In which the latter denounced as an
injustice the stories which he says were
sent out last summer from Wooster,
o., where Thaw and he were school,
mates at the Wooster university.
AS Mr.. OReilly was leaving the
Tombs he gave copies of the statement
sent out by Mr.. Gilliland, who signed
a note to the effect that the interview
was authentic.
Mr.. Gilliland says the college esca-
pades of a man whose life is regarded
as a success are looked upon by the
world as good jokes. Let that same man
afterward fall from grace, and those
same pranks are regarded as crimes,
and thus it is that the escapades of
Harry Thaw, who is now on trial in
New York for the Staying of Stanford
White last summer, are being depicted
as criminal and that Thaw's career as
such was begun while lad in knee
trousers in his early college days at
Wooster.
hI. NIlllildHu luel III
length reviews Thaw's school life,
pointing out that Thaw had been
credited with many pranks in which
he never participated, and that as q
matter of fact the prisoners life at
Wooster was in every way praise
worthy.
1t is said to be definitely settled by
the lawyers defending Thaw that there
will be no cross examination of the six
experts retained by the state, all of
whom pronounced as their opinion that
Thaw's sanity when he killed Stanford
White was established beyond question
by the facts presented to them by the
district attorneys hypothetical ques-
ton.
This announcement was generally re-
garded as a victory for Dolphin NJ.
Delmas, the one lawyer for Thaw who,
it is said, insisted from the first that
Jeromes experts should not be ques-
toned at all by the defense.
Henry Clay McPlke, partner of D. NJ.
Delmas, tonight said that the defense
tomorrow would call as many experts
as the prosecution had called, making
six all told. These experts will include
DR.. Britton D. Evans and DIR. Charles
9. Wagner, who have already testified.
They will be recalled, however, to an
swer a complete hypothetical question.
This question will include the state
ments of DR.. Deemar, the Thaw family
regarding Thaw's early
childhood.

The controversy began when Au-
Rlsto G. Coello, the Honduran minis
ter for foreign affairs, wrote a note
to Jose d. Gomez, the Nicaraguan
I. minister for foreign affairs, on Janu-
ary 2S, protesting against the theft OF
a mule from Irano Salgado by thirty
five Nicaraguan cavalrymen, VINO
were charged with entering Honduran
territory.
5g In reply Senior Gomez said the Nj
ecaraguans did not quite enter Hon
duran territory, although they passed
4 near to the little town Of Los Manos
sein that republic.
Y The taking of the mule was not de-
@ MED. but Senior Gomez insisted in his
isletter that Salgado was not Hon
! duran citizen but a Nicaraguan who
4 had to leave that country because OF
= the part he played In reVoIutlon tWo
ryears before. Consequently Nicaragua
maintained that Honduras had no right
to fly to the defense of Salgado's mule.
This note brought spirited reply
from Honduras, the minister of foreign
3 affairs announcing that Ireno Salgado,
a the Nicaraguan refugee, was living IN
: Tegucigalpa, happily engaged in trade
there, while a man of the same name,
"a most reputable and respected farmer,
a Honduran of unquestionable citi-
,zenship living at Los Manos, owned
the much-mooted mule.
~ Nicaragua replied that it was true
that Col. Juan 1. Rocha, who COM
: manded a party of cavalrymen, took
: a mule near Los Manos, but reiterated
that the animal was not taken in Hon
duran territory. Dispatches grew
!, longer as the controversy waged warm
er. Other questions arose. Then the
arbitration tribunal was opened and
finally the break came when President
Zelaya of Nicaragua withdrew his
member of the board of arbitration,
and war between Honduras and Nj
z caragua actually began.
