mel-the very vermin of the New
York bar.
The address of the defending attor.
ney took up all the day session and
District Attorney Jerome is expect
ed to reply tomorrow.
Mr.. Littleton's argument was IN.
pressiye. He refrained from appeal.
ing to the passions of the jury an de,
voted himself to logical considera-
tion of the evidence. He made no ut.
tempt to eulogize Harry Thaw and he
said that he asked for him no more
consideration than an average Ame7i
can boy had a right to demand of an
average American jury.
Mr.. Littleton, in speaking of Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw said:
II do not know what the judgment
of you gentlemen may be as to her
morals or as to any reprehensibility
of conduct either with Stanford White
or Mr.. Thaw, but District Attorney
Jerome's manner toward her, in my
Judgment, exceeded anything before
heard of. It amounted to unofficiaN
antipathy- antipathy which / believe
exceeded by far the necessities or the
duties of his Office. There always
were notes of savagery and bitter
ness in his examination of her, and III
his commits upon her before this
jury which were not justified by the
facts of this case. / don't know how
you gentlemen feel about it, but it
has been generally understood that a
women when she takes the witness
stand in this country is at least en-.
titled to have her testimony elected
with as much gentility, care, tender,
ness and regard of ordinary proprie.
ties as ordinarily governs the inter.
ests. Of men and women.
q do not say that the district at.
torney transcribed the prophecies
and decencies; / leave it to YOU ]
may be partisan / would not have
you judge the district attorney from
anything say, but it has seemed to
me that Mr.. jerome has been more
intent on destroying this young WON
an than in proving that Thaw was
sane.
Judging from his attack he would
lead you to believe that Mrs. Thaw
and not her husband, was on tria
before you.
What was there about this 'yon as
woman for or against her. that Mr.
Jerome should pace up and down be
fore you like a Gagged lion, when hs
was questioning her and glare ald
glare at her and clench his teeth :
her-not even sitting down when
was conducting the examination
what was there about her that called
for such treatment from a mn whe
could coddle and hug and youch fol
this loathOsme little Hummel?
do not want to be unfair to Mr.. Jer
ome-we are very good friends. da
not, ! repeat, ask you to take my view
OF him; Judge for yourselves"

Her Ltstis Rabbit.

A story is told Of Gounod which
shows the difference between the
French and the English style Of 70.
harding things. A music-mad young
English lady was introduced to the
great musician, and overwhelmed by
the happiness OF standing in the pres
snce OF the composer OF Faust she
addressed him thus:
"Oh, am lost for words to express
my admiration. Inspired musician,
genius, mighty master, what shall I
call your Gounod here interrupted
her by patting her on the head and
saying:
Throw your arms around my neck
and call me your little rabbit"

FEDERAL CLASH is EXPECTED
State Authorities Deny Jurisdiction
Of Judge Pritchard.
Receivers Named by South Carolina
Judge Refuse TO Act in
Dispensary Case.

clash between South Carolina and the
Federal government seems certain, as a
result of Federal Judge Pritchard's deci-
sion to take charge of the affairs Of the
old State dlspensary and 10 have all
claims by liquor houses against the dis

by him.
At Asheville to-day Judge Pritchard
named j. A. Mccullough. c. X. Hender-
son. and y. F. Arthur receivers. Hender-
son and Arthur, who are members OF the
commission named by the legislature to
wind up the affairs of the dispensary,
promptly notified Pritchard they would
not act as receivers. as they denied hts
right 20 name them 1t is said that Nc
Cullough will also refuse 10 act and that
the commission named by the legislature
TO settle the dispensaTy affairs will refuse
10 recognize Judge Pritchsrd's authority
in any way
The state commission Is resisting claims
OF many whisky houses against the dis
pensary. on the ground Of fraud. and al
ready evidence OF colossal graft has de-
veloped. The whisky houses appealed TO
Judge -Pritchard for receivers.
Feeling throughout the State is exceed

last year. The midshipmen on the obser-

Directly after the regatta last year
there was some discussion by Richard
Glendon. coach OF the Navy crews. as
to the chances Of the eights in the vari-
Gus courses. In fact, Coach Glendon fig
ured it out to his own satisfaction that
with a different course ard therefore a
fairer chance his eight would have beaten
the Cornell and Columbia crews, which
finished so close together. That stirred
up lot Of comment. which perhaps may
not have sounded pleasantly in the ears
of the academy authorities. Probably
they preferred not 70 have competitions
which brought up such arguments That
may be part Of the reason for withdrawal.

GOOD PITCHER AT FIFTY.

Hughey Jennings. the Detroit manager,

The case Of Mcmahon. the old-time

which represented Baltimore in the East

His feat is all the more remarkable
from the fact that he was never a

MUST PROTECT BOwLERs.
Evils of Cincinnati Tourney Must
Be Eliminated at PittsburG.

Prom the Cincinnati Times-Star.
It's up to the promoters OF the Pitts
burg bowling tournament next year 20
prevent scandal in regard TO scores.
The local tournament did not breed
many disagreeable features. less than
five charges OF crookedness being made
but that was four too many.
Two things should be strictly observed
by the Pfttsburg tournament committee
In arranging the roll-off They are:
The teiephoning Of the scores from the
scorers At the boards 20 the scorers at
the bOwlers end of the alleys and the
placing OF the pin boys IN such a posi-
tion that at no time shall il be neces-
sary or permissible for them 10 step on
the alleys.
II has been found that the scandals in
the local tournament were caused by &c
fects in the scoring and the pin-setting
systems. The scores that were exhibited
TO the public on the big boards back OF
the alleys were correct in every instance.
the marker being apprised of every error
and made to correct it as soon as IT oc-
CURED. The scoring on the books, from
which the official figures we're taken. was
supervised in a superficial way only.
making It possible for unlimited doctor
ing-and the claim is strongly made that
this was done In three or four cases. all
Of which now are under investigation.
In the matter Of the pin boys assist
ing bowlers. II was noted on many oc-
casions during the tourney that boys
stepped from their perches into the
dump TO pick up balls before some of
the pins had stopped swaying, walking
over the pins and momentarily hiding
them from the view of the bowlers. On
one Of these occasions It is claimed
boy kicked over a pin that would have
made difficult split. allowing the bowler
who was rolling 20 make a spare on his
next ball. the favor eventually resulting
in his winning the match by nine pins.
There Is no doubt that the A. b. c. will
take cOgnizance OF these matters and
make rules TO prevent their recurrence
at the Pittsburg tourney.
