DIPLOMATS SLAYER
MAY PLEAD INSANITY
Defense Begins Taking Testimony
Sister of Victim Receives Hand
some Message of Sympathy
from Emperor

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 21.-Follow-
ing the closing of the case for the state
early today in the trial Of In Whan
Chang, the Korean who is charged with
the murder of Durham White Stevens
the American adviser to the Korean
emperor, the defense began taking tes-
timony this afternoon with the expec-
tation that 1t would have its case COM
pleted by tomorrow night.
Insanity and self-defense will be the
plea made by the defense.
This was first indicated by the state
ment of Attorney Nathan Coghlan and
later confirmed by the testimony of b,
]. Lee, a Korean, who was the constant
companion of Chang for months prior
to the shooting of Stevens.
Lee declared 1t his opinion that
Chang was of unsound mind, and
stated that he had repeatedly heard the
defendant refer to Prince Ito of the
Japanese cabinet as a great devil" and
that the marquis headed what he
thought was a conspiracy to Cypress
his countrymen.
Miss Kate Stevens, sister of the muir
dered man, has received a message OF
sympathy from vi Hung, the Korean
emperor, the message being conveyed
to her by an official of the state de-
partment.
The writing is on a square yard OF
yellow silk of the particular kind re-
served for the use of the royal family
and is sealed with the great private
seal of the emperor.

Pension Office May Be Scene of
Gorgeous Terpsichorean
Festivities

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.--The pen
sion Office building likely will be the
scene of the inaugural ball, despite
some objection. The reason is the fall
ing through of the appropriation for an
auditorium which was TO have been
built by private subscription has been
explained to congress and representa-
tons have been made which would
seem to argue for this further con-
cession, which would permit the use of
the pension building, as heretofore. 1t
seems likely that objections to the use
of the pension office building will be
swept away and that the principal
cause of solicitude upon the part of the
inaugural committee viii disappear
The subscriptions for the inaugural
fund today reached the grand total of
$4,000 and the committee is confident
it can raise the full amount of 100000
deemed necessary.

playwrights. Augustus Thomas in an
address last night before the Amer

plays and playwrights:
"No old playwright can tell a young
one how to build a play
There are no rules to the game and
there is not a single accepted maxim
that you can't break and make money.
THE greatest of them all misled more
people than anybody ever did when he
said that playwriting was holding the
