or He Becomes a Free Agent.

Cincinnati, O.. April 10.-The decision
in the case of Sandow Mertes the ball
player, as reached by the National
Baseball commission, a few days ago
and published today is to the effect that
unless the st. Louis or the Boston Ma
tionals pay a $4,000 salary he becomes Il
free agent.
Mertes was transferred from ST. Louis
to Boston on the understanding that he
was to receive $4,000 per annum Later
he received a contract from the Boston
club calling for a salary of $1,000. He
refused to sign and appealed to the Ma
tiona1 commission. contending that he

Markets TODAY,

Chicago, April 10.-WHEAT-Wheat to-
day was firm on an active demand by a
leading commission house for the July de-
livery. The buying was chiefly due to
the continued absence of rain in Kansas
and Nebraska. Firm cables, however,
helped to stimulate bullsh sentiment
May opened 1s1Ac to H@Ssc higher at
77a77Ac, sold off to 765kc and then rail-
lied again to 771sc. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 1854 cars.
The publication of the government de-
pressed the wheat market for a time, but
prices rallied sharply on increased pur-
chases by shorts and commission houses.
The high point for May delivery was
reached at 7Sc The market closed strong
with May up A@Ac at 77asc.
CORN-CommiSsion houses were active
bidders for corn. but offerings were light
and consequently a firm tone prevailed
There was an excellent demand for cash
grain and this tended to strengthen op-
tons. May opened 1sdAc higher at 46z @
467sc: and for time held within that
range.
The strength of wheat impaired addi-
tionaI firmness to corn For May the high
point of the day was 47Hc.

the interstate commerce hearing in
Topeka this week.
To be sure there is much technical
ity and Il great deal of talk about diff
ferentials and a natural desire for a
reduced rate on grain But the ques-
ton given above is the real one at
stake, and Kansas hopes for much
from the interstate commerce COM
mission on this.
The fifteen per cent reduction Sc
cured by the recent legislation, and to
be shortly placed into effect by the
railroads, does not at all correct the
gross injustice in Kansas wheat rates.
The real complaint before the COM
mission was brought out clearly by D.
w. Blaine. president of the shippers
club, who said in his testimony:
1--WE object to paying greater rate
on grain shipped from points out in
the wheat belt to gulf points than is
paid from Kansas City and other Mis-
souri, river points We are two hum
bred miles nearer gulf points than is
Kansas City and most of our grain
goes direct to the gulf. yet we pay the
freight rate from Kansas City to the
gulf. plus the local rate to Kansas
City. We lack but two cents per hun
dred of doing this right along. Fur
thermore, the haul from Kansas City
to Wichita is nearly all upgrade. It
Is a downhill haul from any point in

END is IN SIGHT.
Today Probably will Finish the
Thaw Murder Trial.
Address of District Attorney
Jerome All That Remains.
THEN GOES TO JURY.
Charge Will BE Given This
Evening If There Be Time.
Final Appeal Of Delmas for the
Defendants Life.
THEN GOES TO JURY.

New York. April 10.-What bids
fair to be the last day of the long
drawn out trial of Harry K. Thaw, be-
gan at 1880 this morning, at which
time District Attorney William Travis
Jerome began his summing up for the
people. For two days Jerome has been
absent from the court room, leaving
to his assistant, Mr. Garvan, the task
of making notes of Mr.. DelmaS re
marks While he went over the evidence
and prepared himself for the effort he
will make today. That it will be the
effort of his life there is little doubt.
The case which he is about to close is
the longest ever tried in New York
and no other trial in American GRIM
inal history has attained the promi-
nence that has been given to this.
Jerome will go before the jury in an
effort to have inflicted upon Harry
Thaw the extreme penalty of the law.
He has believed Thaw4 to be insane,
btu the commission appointed by the
court under the law has held that ne
was legally sane and if he is sane now
Mr. Jerome will argue, he was sane
when he fired three shots point blank
into the body of Stanford White on
the roof garden on the night of
June 25.
Delmas painted Harry Thaw as the
model young man who in burst OF
insane rage, believing himself to be
the agent of Providence, put out OF the
world man he believed was a menace
to society and who. he believed, had
ruined the woman who afterward be
came Thaws wife. Mr.. Jerome will
contend that Thaw'S act was premed1-
tated murder and that it was prompted
by nothing more than jealousy.
If Mr.. Jerome finishes his address in
time, Justice Fitzgerald will probably
charge the jury before he adjourns
court this afternoon and the day sses-
sion should close with the fate Of
Harry Thaw in the jury's hands.
Following the reces yesterday after
noon, Mr.. Delmas brought the MARIA
tive of his arguments down to the
events of the night of the tragedy. how
Stanford White came into the room OF
the cafe, where the Thaws and friends
were dining. how Mrs. Thaw wrote
note to her husband, saying, 1.-THE b
was here moment ago but went out
again." and how Thaw with his party
then went to the roof garden enter
tainment, picking up on the way an
other friend who occupied one of the
seats, leaving Mr.. Thaw without seat,
and how he found the one beside Mr..
Smith. brother-in-law of White.
He was not agitated, his conversa-
ton went on in its usual tenor, and he
did not include Smith in the aversion he
felt for Stanford White. Then he re:
turned to his party. talked about the
play, discussed its lack of interest and

The Attorneys Are Driven Into
Corner.
Forced to Explain About Re-
turns to Assessors.
DON'T MEAN MUCH.
That Is How Tax Commissioner
Cartilage Explains.
State Auditor Nation InterrO-
gated by Mr.. PrOuty.

"Our estimates on the value of our
main line are merely nominal. They
don't mean much. The law does not
require that they be made, but there is
a space provided for valuation, and
we put it in"
This is the statement made by E. T.
Cartilage, tax commissioner of the
Santa F'e railroad, while on the wit
ness stand before the interstate COM
merce commission Tuesday afternoon.
Mr.. Cartridges testimony came at
the end of an afternoon of rather
startling testimony concerning rail-
road valuations

mony by introducing tables prepared
by the state auditor showing the val
uation placed by the railroad tax COM
missioners themselves on the railroad
lines of the state, when returning
those lines for assessment and taxa
ton. The value runs about $4,000 for
the main lines per mile and $4,000 for
the branch lines.
The railroad attorneys insisted that
States Auditor James Nation be placed
on the stand to tell about the general
basis for valuations of property in
Kansas. Mr. Nation was summoned
to the hall at once, and took the wit
ness stand. Commissioner Prouty did
not wait for the attorneys to examine
Mr. Nation. He started in with him

Elk9 Club Going to Philadelphia, 1875
Strong, Next Week.

About the only thing that is being
discussed Alese days at the Elks' club
on Crown street is the coming trip to
Philadelphia to attend the annual con-
yention of the order. Every other club
activity has been dropped 50 that ev-
cry effort can be turned to make this
years excursion the most successful
one that the local club has ever had.
1t is expected that about 1926 mem
bers will go and at lease fifty of these
will take their helpmeets with them, so
New Haven will be very well repre-
sented. As it is now planned four or
five extra Pullmans will be attached
to the regular Washington express for
the party.
The club will march in the mammoth
