NAVY YARDS WILL NOT
RE ABANDONED

Washington, d. c., Feb. 21.-Tne
report that the League Island navy
yards along with those at Portsmouth,
n. H., Washington, Charleston and
New orleans, were to be abandoned
is entirely without foundation. on
the contrary the heads of the navy
department today announced that
they would be thoroughly equipped
and made the greatest bases for re-
pairing. 1t is conceded that League
Island offers facilities obtainable at
no other navy yard in the county and
is practically immune from any for
eign attack Coupled with these facts
must be considered the enormous ex-
penditure already made there in the
way OF machinery and dry docking
works which would in themselves
preclude any idea of abandonment,

WITNESS CRIES BITTERLY
At STORY OF HER SHAME
Hdrtridge Refused to Answer Je-
rome'S QueStiOnS--COurt
Tomorrow and Saturday.

New York, Feb. 21.-A few mo-
ments after Justice Fitzgerald had
taken his place on the bench In the
Thaw trial this morning, it was an
nounced that there would be no ses-
sion of the case tomorrow, Washing
toms birthday.
Thaw entered the court room i'm
mediately after the jury without
waiting to be formally called to the
bar. His hair was mussed and his
manner eager and nervous.
When Mrs Thaw was called to the
stand she glanced at her husband and
smiled. Then she turned to Justice
Fitzgerald and made a little bow to
him, but the justice did not notice
her.
Never Been Taught Chastity.
Jerome called tie attention of the
witness to the closing testimony of
yesterday, and Mrs. Thaw replied
she had continued to believe all wo-
men unchaste, as White had told her,
until she talked with Thaw in Paris
in 1903.
Witness Cried Bitterly.
Jerome continued to examine the
witness in regard to her knowledge
Of right and wrong in the relations
between men and women, and she
said she did not consider it particu-
larly wrong to be unchaste until
Thaw told her. Mrs. Thaw testified
that she wrote to White after Thaw
had proposed to her, but said she did
so because she was coerced into
writing to him by her mother, who
said she was ungrateful to White.
Mrs. Thaw acknowledged that after
her first experience with White, re-
lations were continued with him for 6
time. Tears came to her eyes a.
Jerome continued to question hel
about her relations with White. Mrs
Thaw said the relations were contin
ued against her will.
She cried bitterly. One newspaper
woman left the room during the eX
animation. Thaw hid his face in hi:
hands as Jerome attacked his wife
Once Jerome offered to suspend hi
examination for a time. Delma
would not consent.
Hartridge Refused to Answer.
genuine sensation was sprunl
which Attorney Hartridge, represent
ing Thaw, was called to the stand b!
Jerome to learn why certain letter
written by White to Evelyn Nesbi
would not be produced. Hartridg'
declined to answer. Jerome argued
that Hartridge was not the counsel o
Mrs. Thaw and had no right to with
hold information. Delmas said Mrs
Thaw had retained counsel becaus
of the threats against her. He haC
heard that the district attorney pro
posed to have her indicted. Jerom
said no such statement had beel
made, but he did not deny the intent
Jerome wanted the testimony o
DIR. Deemar and DR.. Bingham takel
today instead of waiting until later
He said they were about to leave tn
state. He said Mrs Thaw's cross
examination cannot be finished unde
less than a day and a half. Dr
Bingham was first called to the STAN
and questioned whether he was abou
to leave the state. The matter wa
settled by Fitzgerald announcing tina
the court would sit tomorrow an
Saturday to hear those witnesses.
Hartridge was this afternoon serv
ed with a subpoena, requesting tn
production of Whites letter. II
said he would not comply.

shut off a view of the wreck, which
led to the belief that no trace of the

DO CORPORATIONS
CONTROL PAPERS 2

Beveridge debates the trust question
with Bryan in the Reader Magazine
for May, published here, Monday.
Beveridge believes the greatest
trust evil today is the corrupt control
Of many of the newspapers of today
by trusts, street car companies and
other corporations that seek millions
by obtaining rich public franchises
which should belong TO all the peo-
Pile. Beveridge says:
The last evil of these trusts" is the
most subtle and dangerous of all; and
see. no remedy for II in any possible
legislation. This evil Is the purchase
and ownership by "the interests" OF
newspapers and other organs OF public
information and opinion. AZ strategic
points great newspapers are being
bought up by men who are either a
part of or are affiliated with mighty
financial interests.
For this evil there lis no remedy
but the people themselves. Some
how or other the people come TO
know about these things.
There are, then, the following evils
of trusts:
ID Rebates--we have ended them.
(2) contributions" have ends
ed them.
(3) Bad meats and impure foods
we have ended them.
(4) Secrecy-we have ended H.
CD Overcapitalization--w will end
that, and are working on II now.
(6) Unjust prlces--the ending OF ov-
ercapitslization will help cure this.
and. with publicity. perhaps entirely
cure IT, Can anybody think Of bet
ter remedy2
ca Purchased newspapers" and
the corruption of public opinion.
Only the people can end this by learn
ing to know such papers when they
see them"

pure heart OF the American people.

Croes-B Breedlnu.

The danger in cross breeding ami
mails is pretty well known, and yet q
good many persons venture on such
breeding. In o recent discussion on
the subject az the American Breeders
association meeting, Prof. Castle, of
Harvard University uttered the fol.
lowing warnings:
"Cross-breeding is two-edged
sword which must be handled careful.
ly.
"If modification OF characters IL de-
sirable at the same time as new com
binatlons. then cross.breeding be-
comes doubly advantageous.
"since cross.breedIng is likely TO
modify characters. and even when
these conform to the laws Of alter
native inheritance. and is certain TO
modify them when they give blended
inheritance, II should be practiced
with extreme caution, and only by the
breeder who has q definite end In
view and a fairly clear idea Of how he
is going TO attain t."
