THE CASE WAS NOT HEARD
Elmer Brown Did Not Insult Woman
Acquaintance Of Elmer Bymaster
as Stated.

The Palladium was misinformed as
to the cause of the trouble between
Elmer Bymaster and Elmer Brown at
the corner of Eighth and Main
streets Saturday night. The state
ment that young Brown had insulted
a woman acquaintance of Bymaster
was incorrect. 1t appears that By
master was passing the corner in
question when one of group of Toys,
who was standing there made a re-
mark concerning him, and he turn
ed and struck Brown under the i'm
preston that he was the offender
Both youn men were discharged in

President Merrill Tells Ship
pers that Traction War is
Nearly at End.
MCGOWAN MUCH DISGUSTED
PRESIDENT OF THE TRACTION
COMPANY SAYS HIS OFFICIALS
ACTED DIsGRAcEFULLY TO-
WARD THE cITY-SOME SALvE.

The case appealed by the Indianap-
oils, Columbus & Eastern Traction
company, from the city court to the
Circuit court, for the purpose of deter.
mining the legality of the city ordi-
nance prohibiting the running of inter
urban freight cars over the streetst of
the city, is set for hearing next Mon
day, but it is almost an assured fact
that the case will not be called.
1t is certain that the traction diff
culties will be Strengthened out this
week, SO it is probable that the attor-
neys for the traction company will
ask that the case be taken out of the
county on change of venue. This
will necessitate considerable delay in
the hearing of the case, and when an
agre ement is reached between the
city and the traction company, a mo-
tion to dismiss will be entered in the
court to which the case has been ven
ued.
Merrill Calls on Jobbers.
President Merrill of the board of
works, called upon loce. jobbers and
manufacturers last Saturday and as
sured them that it was only question
of a short time before the /. G.. G. E.
would sign treaty of peace with the
city, and freight cars would once more
be run into the city on the traction
lines.
President MCGOWAN, of the l., c. &
E., told local business man last week
that he had thoroughly investigated
the local situation and that he felt
"humiliated and disgusted" with the
in which the officials of the
company had acted toward the city
1t is stated that the company plans
to run it's freight cars from the car
barns north on West Fifth street to
Richmond avenue and east on Rich
mond avenue, North ID street, FIT
Wayne avenue and North E street TO
Twentieth street, then south on
Twentieth street to Main street. The
has an option on the old
Strattan Carriage company property
on FIT. Wayne avenue, and it is very
probable that the new freight station
will be located there.

MRS. THAW SUFFERS
NERVOUS COLLAPSE
Not Likely that She Will be
Able to Appear in Court
Very Soon.
DETAILS OF TRIAL TAME
RUMoR THAT THE MOTHER OF
THE MURDERER WAS TO TAKE
THE STAND PROVES TO BE a.
CANARD.

New York, March 4.-with another
expert on all kinds of insanity on the
stand, the Thaw trial promises to drag
through several more uninteresting
days, such as those during which DR..
Evans was put through series of
question over and over again by Dis
trict Attorney erome last week.
The details of the trial have become
decidedly tame and interest in its
progress has reached a low ebb. This
afternoon there was renewal of in
terest when it was rumored that Mrs.
Thaw, mother of the man on trial for
his life, would be the next witness
called.
Instead of having their morbid curl
asity satisfied, Jerome disappointed
the spectators by calling to the stand
DR.. Charles G. Wagner of Binghamp-
ton, N. Y, another alienist, and his
crosse examination commenced.
DIR. Wagner, without opposition
from Thaws attorneys, stated that he
believed Thaw was suffering from
symptoms allied to two forms of in
sanity-one tending to melancholia
and the other dementia.
1t is reported tonight that Mrs. Eve
1yn Nesbit Thaw has suffered another
nervous collapse, and it is doubtful if
the woman who withstood the fire of
Jerome's cross-examination, will be
able to appear in court for several
days.
In the course of his cross-examina-
tion of DIR. Evans, this morning, Dis
trict Attorney Jerome asked:
Were Thaw's mental processes
such that he knew he was attacking
Stanford White on the roof garden?"
HE had an insane knowledge
yes," replied DR.. Evans.
Mr.. Jerome concluded his cross-ex-
animation of DR.. Evans at IL o'clock.
The witness was excused temporarily
from redirect examination, and DR..
Charles G. Wagner, another alienist, |
was calico
During his cross-examination. DR..
Wagner expressed the opinion that
this man (Thaw) has symptoms allied
to a Oppressive form of insanity and
others allied to deme ntia praccox'
DR.. Wagner used the present tense !
in replying to a question by the dis |
trict attorney as to the form of Thaw's |
insanity, saying he believed the de-
fendant 'is suffering" from symp-
toms allied to two forms of insanity
one tending to melancholia, and the /
other to dementia. Thaw'S attorneys |
made no move to correct the witness.

When jackson "Went Dry


Written by Mrs. w. K. Hawkes. of
our city, just after the local option
election in Jackson, Tenn.
Oh! Noble women Of Tennessee,
Today our hearts go out to thee
In Jackson's glorious victory
God bless the noble fearless band
That in the foremost ranks did sta d,
And fight for home and native land.
God bless the children marching there.
A fathers soul was in their prayer,
A mothers bleeding heart laid bare.
All day long in the muddy street
The music of their marching feet
Rose in echoes long and sweet;
Till angels heard the wondrous sound
And Jackson soil was sacred ground
For angels tears its vict'ry crowned.
Some flther's soul that day awoke,
Within his breast the flood gates broke.
His Master 5 voice within him spoke.
Some mothers boy in after years
Will bless that day infmanhood' S tear
That saved him fromihis whiskey peers
Oh! Loyal women, grand and true.
Brave and fearless to dare and do,
How much we owed that day to you.
May the Jackson Battle-cry roll round
Till all the world Shall hear the nd,
Till all the world be sacred ground.
And may the little, white, ribbon bow
On every breast its beauty show,
Till all the world shall proudly know,
The Temperance cause is one great band;
One mighty work of neart and hand
For God and Home and every land"

INTO OIL FIELDS

REPRESENTATIVE
c. A. Garfield Owned siteA. Of Rich
Well but Allowed FiIingA to
Go by Default and
Lost Millions r-r.-7

Millionaires are going into the Utah oil
fields.
Los Angeles capitalists have just sent
representatives to the Virgin river dis
trict after throwing away chances to
make fortunes.
c. A. Garfield, the multi-millionaire oil
man associated in the great Mexican fields
with Joseph Chanslor and E. L. Doheny,
yesterday declared that he threw away
several million dollars by FORGETTING large
locations he had made in the southwest
crn Utah old lands, and will send a per-
sonal representative.
Mr.. Garfield owned the land that the
rich well now flowing contains, but he
neglected to make good his original filings
The millionaire still has an interest In
few sections of land in the new Titan
field, and he will IT once send his trusted
expert representative, Charles DepeW, to
the Virgin City district.
Depew will leave for Utah, representing
Garfield and Chanslor. tomorrow night.
Mayor Harper and his associates will
make heap of money in their Utah
field said Mr.. Garfield.
Il threw away several million dollars
by not holding on to my filings there,
which were made year ago last Decem-
Der.
MY chance came in the midst of my
trouble, when l lost my wife through
death, and of course while I was half
crazy did not even care to go into any
thing so big, no matter how rich It was
owned several thousand acres including
that on which the present well stands.
1.-The Utah field will be a very rich one.
I'VE tested and proved the whole dis
trict. Mr.. Depew and Mr.. Whittier were
there for us for several weeks.
The oil is paraffine and of high grade
and very valuable. The wells will not
be as big as these hereabouts, but the
product is better. They will not find as
heavy sand as here.
THE field is very large, the oil sands
showing for miles around. I look for big
doings."

suspicion, as Union Pacific would be the
largest BENEFICIARY of any increase in the
