Special Dispatch 10 The Star
NEW YORK January 2.,.-lt is praetl-
caIly certain now that Abe Hummel. the
disbarred lawyer who is serving term
in the Blackwells Island penitehtiar9
will be called bv District Attorney Jerome
as a witness for the people in the Harry
Thaw murder trial. Hummel, 1t is eX-
pected. will repeat the testimony "hlch
he gave A wear ago This concerned an
affidavit which Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, ac.
cording to- Hummel. made in his ofiics,
alleging that Thaw had beaten her. ~
the first trial Evelyn repudiated this
affidavit as a forgery. 1t was SAID to-
day that the district attorney hadn't made
UP his mind to call Hummel until Martin
w. Littleton. Thoaws counsel, had re-
jected y proposal of the district attorney
that Hummers testimony given at the
first trial be read into the record.

The witnesses are DR.. Albert Abrams of
France. Dr. Gauia Of Switzerland, DIR.
Russell Wells of London. and two lay
men. w. L. Jarrett and John Wahrman.
Representatives of Thaw's counsel met
the witnesses at the pier. The physicians
will testify as to Thaw's mental condition
at various times when they treated him.
1t is supposed that the two laymen also
will have some information to give which
will tend to bear out the defenseS insanity
plea.
There is some doubt whether Dr. John
A. Bingamon of Pittsburg the Thaw fam
lily physician. will be able to appear as
witness. lie is ill at his home, and it was
reported today that Mr.. Littleton had
asked the district attorneys consent for
the reading of DR.. Bingamons S testimony
at the first trial into the present record.
1t was then that Mr.. Jerome demanded in
return that Hummefs testimony be adj
nitted. and Littleton refused to accede to
this.
II will bring Dr. Bingamon here from
his sick bed Littleton declared.
The defense is depending on DR. Binga-
mon to tell of Thaws sickness in infancy
and his peculiar conduct boy.
Evelyn Is Satisfied.
In calling the convicted Hummel it will
be Mr.. Jerome's purpose to discredit the
story told by Evelyn on the witness stand
by introducing the alleged affidavit.
Evelyn was in excellent spirits when she
made her regular daily visit to her hus-
band in the Tombs today.
"The trial is going along exactly right

Nicholas LongwOrth declares abso-
lutely and utterly false the report that
in his recent speech at Rock Island and
again in Indiana he advocated two
terms for Mr.. Taft and then the re
election of Mr.. Roosevelt to the presi-
dency. There is no stern chase half so
loug as that which a denial must make
when it sets out TO overtake 4 flying
falsehood, but in the present instance
Mr. Longworth's statement is so ex-
plicit and SO convincing that the pub
lie hardly will hesitate to accept 1t.
From the first the story was so i'm
probable as to arouse incredibly. Mr..
Longworth has always acted with such
admirable good sense in the somewhat
trying position of the Presidents SON..

will be all the more ready to take his

Moreover it must be borne i'm mind
that there are not lacking individuals
IN both parties who will take advantage
OF the campaign to circulate canards
against their political opponents.

Rule is lost art, Or at least an archaic
custom. Indeed, the government wealth

good gloves and good shoes are a nee

too. that much depends on her personal
appearance; but when the rent of her
hall bedroom is paid. or perhaps of the
little fat where her mother keeps house
for herself and several small brothers
and sisters. and when the milk and gas
and bread and other bills are paid. to
he well gloyed and well shod is far less
simple than it sounds.
TO be well gloved one must have
Iaare than one pair, and ditto with
shoes. Sometimes one can spare the
change to buy gloves, but by the time
shoe money has accumulated the gloves
are worn; so while formerly she had
good gloves and shabby shoes, she now
has good shoes and shabby gloves. And
so it goes "Have one good tailor-made
