DEFENSE CLOSES THAW CASE
With HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION
DIFFERS MATERIALLY FROM THAT PRESENTED DELMAs IN
FORMER TRIAL IN THAT IT HAS DIRECT BEARING ON IR
RATIONAL ACTS OF DEFENDANT FROM YOUTH TO TIME OF
] KILLING STANFORD WHITE

NEW YORK, an. 27.-The de-
fense in the Thaw case was complet-
ed this morning by the introduction
of all its testimony and shortly be-
fore the noon recess Littleton began
to read the long. carefully prepared
hypothetical questi, to the three
alienists engaged to testify in
Thaw's behalf.
The question covered all the tes-
timony of the case, and before being
read had been submitted to Attor-
ney Jerome for any objection the
prosecution had to offer. Only slight
changes resulted.
AS the testimony of the present
hearing has differed largely from
the first trial, so the hypothetical
question differed from the one pro-
pounded last year by Delmas.
Evidence as to the irrational acts
or manner of the defendant from in
fancy to the time of the homicide
was given precedence over every
other phase of the testimony.

CLARK STAR WITNESS FOR
GOVERNMENT PROSECUTION
IN SUIT AGAINST HARTMAN FORMER SENATOR CLARK OF
MONTANA WILL TELL HOW HARTMAN wREsTED FROM HIM
CONTROL OF INDEPENDENT LINE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-An ex-
tremely sensational exposition of the
methods of high finance is foreshad-
owed in the announcement made by
Attorney General Bonaparte that his
department will very soon issue a
statement about its plans for prose-
cutting e. H. Hartman and the Har-
riman railroad system TO rviolation
of the Sherman law. 1t is intimated
on high authority that when the
case comes to trial William A. Clark
of Montana, former senator and one
of the richest men in the world, will
be the governments star witness
and that he will tell in detail the
story of the methods by which Har-
riman wrested from him control OF
the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt
Lake road, which Clark had built as
an independent line. The two men
of millions fought for years, and at
last the power af Hartman prevail
ed and Clark surrendered.
Attorney General Bonaparte was
at the White House for a brief con-
sultation with President Roosevelt
1t was understood his call had to dc
with the final approval of the state
ment which will be prepared at the
department of justice about the Har-
riman prosecution. The attorney
general said on leaving that the
statement would be given to the
public soon The department Of
justice is inclined to believe that tfe
governments case is based on the
contract between Hartman and
Clark for pooling interests Of the
Southern Pacific and San Pedro
roads, and suppressing competition
It is stated the former senator was
dragooned into the agreement with
the Southern Pacific by threats Of

BuENoS AYRES, Jan. 27.-At-
tended by a division of Argentine
torpedo boats, the American torpedo
boat notilla which left Rio Janeiro,
January 81, entered the post -of
Buenos Ayres at $3.50 yesterday

by great crowd of spectators. A
few minutes later Commander Mo-
reno of the ministry of marine went

tion, and made the passage here
without hitch. The boats win re-
main here until Thursday morning.
when they will steam for Sandy
Point in the Magellan straits, to join

A number of entertainments have
been arranged in honor of the Wis

WESTERN STAR

appearance In eastern football cir

urop-kicker Of the University of

ing every point scored by the Goph-
ers In 1907, has announced his In
'ention of entering Dartmouth this

unable to play on the college team

one year to kick field goals for the

running his road and its business
and that it was not until he was
made to feel the power of Hartman,
who made it apparent that he could
not afford to carry on such a war
fare, that he consented to the terms
which destroyed the independence of
his road.
Senator Clark owns immense cop
per mines in the Southwest. He be-
lieved he was being robbed in the
transportation rates by the South
ern Pacific, and when he could not
otherwise get redress he built the
San Pedro line from Salt Lake to Los
Angeles. The road, which is over
500 miles long, was built by Clark
out of his income from month to
month. Hartman got possession of
mountain pass by a clever legal
trick, when 1t was absolutely nee
essary for Clark to get across the
mountains. The trick was turned
after Clark had spent many millions
and done much of the work of
building the line. Without the right
to use the pass, the entire invest
ment would have been an absolute
loss. Clark then surrendered in or
der TO get the privilege of saving
what he had already invested. BY
telling the whole story in detail.
Senator Clark, it is explained, will
get immunity for his own part in
the transaction, and at the same
time will take revenge against his
enemy. Nobody In the department
of Justice is ready to admit that
this will be the basis of the prose-
eution of Hartman, but people fa-
miliar with the work which the In
terstate commerce commission did in
this investigation believe this will
be the plan of the prosecution.

TAFT FAVORS
ALASKA YUKON
APPEARS BEFORE HOUSE COM
MITTEE AND SPEAKS ON VAL
UE OF COMING EXPOSITION AS
IT TOUCHES PACIFIC TRADE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The
appearance of Taft before the house
committee on Industrial arts and ex-
positions in support of an appropria-
ton for the Seattle exposition in
1909 was signal for demonstra-
tion in his honor.
The congressional delegation from
Washington and delegation of
business men and officials from
Washington were also present and
pleaded for an appropriation for the
exposition.
Taft thought that on account OF
the Philippine finances that govern
ment would not be able to make an
exhibition of considerable size, but
said the war department would have
the Jamestown Philippines exhibit
sent to Seattle.
In an indirect way Taft touched
upon the relations of japan and the
United States. The exposition at
Seattle, he thought, would have a
good effect all over the Pacifific and
declared 1t would help to interest
trade with the Orient and bring the
people on both sides of the Pacific
/ into closer relation.

FLAMES SWEPT BUT BITTER NORTH WIND DEvAsTATE TWO
LARGE BLOCKS, WHOSE CoILAPs1NG WALLS CARRY WHOLE

CHICAGO, an. 27.-One fireman
Is supposed to be killed, more than a
score of others injured and property
valued at 100000 destroyed In a
fire which devastated the Mayer
building, a seven-story brick, and
the Hotel Florence, at 163-167
Adams street, early today.
The fire originated in the base
ment of the Mayer building, and
when the firemen arrived the entire
building was in flames. A strong
north wind carried the flames to the
adjacent hotel and in a few minutes
that structure was a roaring fur
mace.
The walls of both structures coli
lapsed an hour later, carrying with
them an entire company of firemen.
All except one, James Gallagher,
were rescued.
The guests of the hotel rushed
into the street In scant attire and
were taken care of by the police and
citizens. There was a number or
printing establishments in the Nav
er building employing night shifts.
These. too, were hurried to the
streets IN safety.

LABOR Law NOT
CONSTITUTIONAL
IN MATTER OF EMPLOYMENT
RAILROAD COMPANIES ARE
NOT BOUND TO RECOGNIZE
RIGHTS OF ORGANIZATIONS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The
constitutionality of the act of con-
gress of June 1, 1898, prohibiting
railroad companies engaged in inter-
state commerce from discriminating
against members of labor organiza-
tions in the matter of employment
was called into question by the case
of William Adair VS.. United States,
was decided by the supreme court of
the United States today favorable to
Adair.
The opinion, by Justice Harlan,
held that the law was repuguant to
the constitution.
The court held Adair, as master
mechanic of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad, had right to
discharge an employe because he
was member of a labor organiza-
tion, just as it was the employees
right to quit such employment be-

ganiZat!on.
Congress could not, under the
constitution authorize the violation
of contracts under guise of protect
ing interstate commerce. Justice
McKenna delivered a dissenting
opinion.
