fiUMMEL TESTIFIES.
He Tells of an Affidavit in Which Eve
Iyn Nesbit Said Harry Thaw Had
Beaten Her.

New York.-With Attorney Delmas
fighting him every inch of the
way, District Attorney Jerome
on Friday secured from Abraham
Hummel his complete story as to the
affidavit which it is alleged Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw made in the lawyers Of
fee in 1903 charging Harry X. Thaw
with beating her when she had told
him that the statement that Stanford
White had drugged and ruined her
was not true. The EIummel testimony
came during the afternoon session of
the trial and Mr. Delmas, first object.
ing broadly to all of Hummels testi-
mony, offered specific objection to
each question put by the prosecutor.
Evelyn Nesbt Thaw was called to
the stand in the effort of the defense
TO keep Hummel silent. She declared
she had called upon Hummel in his
professional capacity and 10 seek his
advice as a lawyer Stanford White
had taken her to the lawyers office
with that end in view.
Justice Fitzgerald declared that, ad-
mitting the proposition of counsel and
client, Mrs. Thaw had herself waived
the professional privilege by taking
the stand early in the case and giving
her version of what transpired at
Hummel's office. The bond of secrecy
once removed could not be re-estab-
lished.
District Attorney Jerome completed
his medical testimony during the
morning session, Attorney Delmas for
the defense declining to cross-eX-
anime any of the experts. Five alien
lists were called one after another.
Each said he was familiar with the
hypothetical questions framed by the
prosecution. Basing their opinions on
these questions they all declared that
Thaw on the night he shot and killed
Stanford White knew the nature of
his act, and knew that the act was
wrong

Gripping" in Europe.

According TO immemC-ial usage Eu-
rorcan servants are entitued to tips
as an assured part of their income.
At the hotels the theory is that the
landlord furnishes q guest a private
room and the use Of the public rooms,
heat and light, food and dishes, but
not menial service. For convenience
he keeps at hand a corps of servants
who will respond TO the guests sum
mons, but at his expense. IN old
times, says Travel Magazine, travellers
were attended by their own servants
10 wait on them. The modern custom
echoes the ancient The traveller no
longer carries with him retinue of
servants, because he can hire temper
arily those of the landlord. The Gus
1omaTy fees are the payment To
avoid feeling is really TO cheat the SER
wants, who need all they can get
heaven knows. A chambermaid at the
best hotels receives as wages only
about two dollars a month. Tipping
servants in America is a regrettable
limitation of the European custom,
without its resting on the reasonable
basis of the foreign institutions.

Cummins Lets Go of the Tariff.

AS Gov Cummins did not mention
tariff revision either in his message
or his inaugural address. the matter
can be considered closed. 1t was a
long, hard fight, and we hope now
the governor will steady down and
pull true in the party traces. \ po-
litical party is always in need of lead
ers, that they should study well the
desires of their party, and aid in
bringing about its wishes. If the gov
ernor finds himself to-day simply
leader of a faction he can lay the
blame on no one but himself. 1t may
be temptation to be in advance of
public sentiment but one is apt TO
give more weight to his own opinion
than the merit of the case warrants,
and he finds himself stranded, and
wonders why.-Vinton Eagle.

The Difficulty.

The New York Tribune remarks
that 1T ought not to be difficult fo,
the United States and Germany tc
come to a satisfactory understand
ing" True, it ought not TO be diff
cult. But it has been made difficult
by the alliance between tariff ripping
Republicans and tariff ripping Demo,
Gratis working in such organizations
as the American Reciprocal Tariff
league to break down the protective
rates of the Dingley tariff. Germany
has been misled by this combination
into supposing that American senti.
ment supported her demand for tariff
concessions. She is now discovering
her error, and accordingly postpones
her maximum tariff another 18
months Once Germany is convinced
that the United States has no inten-
tion of abandoning its protective tar
if system there will be no difficulty
in coming to an understanding.

AkNOCKOUT BLOW
1T is GIVEN TO STANDARD OIL
ARGUMENT I'M A REBATE
CASE AT CHICAGO.
JUDGE LANDS IN THE FEDERAL
COURT RENDERS DECISION IN
FAVOR OF GOVERNMENT

Chicago Ul.-The contentious OF
the attorneys for the Stand.
ard Oil Co. that the government,
which is now prosecuting the com
pany on indictments charging it with
accepting rebates, had not proven the
existence OF the route by which it
claimed the alleged shipments in vio-
lation OF law had been made, were on
Friday swept away by Judge Lands
in the United States district court.
The court declared that the govern
meHt had proven the existence of
route by The Chicago & Alton railroad
from Whiting, Ind, and Chappell, H.,
to st. Louis. He also declared that
the omission of the name of Chappell
from the tariff sheet did not inyali-
date that tariff as applied to the
Standard Oil case.
1t was asserted by the attorneys for
the defendant company that the gov
ernment had not shown sufficient pub
lication Of the tariff sheet. Judge
Lands declared that the publication
had been shown as far as necessary
to warrant a prosecution of the pres
ent case
The arguments had lasted for al
most three days, and a decision in
favor of the Standard Oil Co. meant
that the government would be pre-
vented from producing further evi.
dence. 1t had brought into court wit.
nesses to testify TO the existence of
the route to St. Louis, and If The
court had decided that no route had
been proven, the government neces-
sarily could never have shown that
freight had been shipped as alleged in
the indictments.
The prosecution had shown before
the arguments were begun that the
tariff sheets were posted in the rail
way offices in Chicago where the prin-
cipal business connected with the oil
shipments was transacted, and the
court declared that the only use
which the oil company had for Whit
ing, Ind, and Chappell, Ill, as far as
this particular CAKE was concerned
was for the handling of freight.

American ChiNalrY.

, Toward women the American mans
attitude is fine. She is neither his
deity nor his doll He simply treats
her with Difference. His chivalry has
as little to do with saccharine utter
ances, scraping feet, and Bonded
knees, as has his patriotism with hys-
terical shriekings and the waving of
ensanguined flags. He is stronger in
his silence and apparent submission
to the ladies of his household than the
most blatant vulgarian who prates of
domestic domination. Place aux
DANES is more than a phrase to the
American man. His inbCrn respect
for her rights" often causes him to
sacrifice his own God-given privileges.
Upon the face of the earth or upon
the waters thereon, says Minna
Thomas Antrim in Lippincotts, exists
no more chivalrous being than the
American gentleman.

The burning of the art treasures in
John Wanamakers home, of manu-
script Lincoln and Washington letters,
of rare books and pictures impossible
to replace is public as well as a
private loss. OF such objects no man
can be more than trustee for poster
ity, remarks the New York World
The loss of the manuscript letters re-
calls the burning Of Major Lamberts

Philadelphia only short time ago
Mr.. Wanamaker had reason to sup
pose that he had protected the greater
part of his collections by a fire-wall
cutting off the art galleries from the
rest of his house, but the galleries
went with the rest when the blazing
wall of the house crashed through

First the Minimum.

Secretary Root in speech recently
favored that kind of tariff reform that
will place the country on a maximum
and minimum tariff basis. This kind
of change has been advocated for
some years, and one of its earliest
and ablest advocates has been the
secretary of the treasury 1t repre-
sents a vital principle and one with
which determinations On the part of
other countries against the United
States can be most successfully com
bated. The country that treats us
fairly will be given the minimum tar
if and the other the maximum tariff.
1t is the kind of tariff, properly safe
guarded, that we may have in this
country at some time in the near fu
ture.-Cedar Rapids Republican.

The amazing thing in connection
with the endless chain system of
prayers, begging letters, etc, which
cause so much annoyance to their re-
cipients and to postal authorities is
that anyone can be influenced by the
dread of i'll fortune Detailing him if he
fails to obey the injunction to con
tinue the chain by writing nine other
letters. The simple and effective way
of stopping the nuisance is for the
recipient to drop all such mail into
the waste basket and then to forget
it.

Where the Farmer Comes In.

In the calendar year 1906 American
manufactures of iron and steel ex-
ported to foreign countries amounted
in value to $172 100000 against $143,.
100000 in 1905, SIPS, 100000 in 1904,
and $99,000000 in 1903, having thus
increased 70 per cent in three years.
This $172, 100000 for 1906 is high rec
ord of exports of iron and steel man
ufactures. Paid to the producers of
the United States by consumers in
other parts of the world, it is the
equivalent of yearly wages of $500
each, earned by "a, 500 American work
men and by them distributed into all
the channels of supply. The Ameri-
can farmer got a very liberal share
of the $l72,500,000 of foreign money
thus spread around, for the extra
force of wage earners employed in
producing the goods exported, to-
gether with their families, consumed
probably ten times the quantity of
American farm products that would
have been consumed by foreign work
ers engaged abroad in producing the
SIZE, 100000 worth of iron and steel.

NO DIAGRAM is NEEDED.
William Whitman's Position on Tariff
Easily Understood.

We ought not to allow our indus
trial system to be made a political
plaything. a speech of viii
liam Whitman, at Boston.
Mr.. Whitman is president of the
National Association Of Woolen Man
ufacturers. He was talking about tar
if revision. No diagram is needed to
explain his position.-N. Y. Sun.
Mr.. Whitman's position is easily un-
derstood. Briefly, It is that the up
roar for tariff revision has politics as
its origin and development. He knows
that it is being utilized by political
schemers as means to an end. As q
large employer of labor, with big pay
rolls to meet and a heavy output of
manufactured products to market, he
naturally objects to the surrender Of
the country's industrial interests to
the tender merCies Of political game
sters. lie does not play politics. He
is a producer and a wage payer To
him and many thousands similarly
situated tariff stability is vital
requisite to business stability; u con-
dition too important to be made a po-
litical plaything. That is his position,
and it needs no diagram. When bust,
ness men of the stamp of William
Whitman raise their voices in pro-
test against the schemes and strata
gems of self-seekins politicians like
Guild and Foss it is time for the Re.
publican party to take notice.
