EVELYN THAW ON
WOMEN WRITER'S
Indignantly Calls the SIuSh
Reporters "CatS" and
Wants TO Be Let Alone
By THE JOURNALS Special wire.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25-N1rs Harry X.
Thaw when she arrived at the Tombs
to see her husband to-day issued an
indignant interview in which she char
acterized as cats certain of the we'll
known women writer's who have been
chroniciing her movements during the
present trial Of her husband.
These women have written about
me as a woman without a SOUL" said
young Mrs. Yhaw, but I wonder how
many of them would measure up to
the standard Of excellence in woman
hood had they suffere5 the trials 1
have. Their declaration that 1 mar
ried Harry for his money is cruel and
wicked. II I had wanted to marry for
money / could have married a man
worth much more than he. It was
Harrys money that caused all our
troubles. These women writer's have
shown neither soul nor conscience in
writing about me. and their great
masses of lies have created a prejudice
in the minds Of the public against me
which is unwarranted. All that Harry
and 1 want is for him to be acquitted
aHd then be let alone" -..-..-

SMILING SUMS
RAYS MELT SNOW
Pedestrians Find Walking
DiSagre2abIe as a
Result

To-days smiling sun isn't doing a thing
TO the snow that blew down to earth yes
terday except to melt It. AS a consequence
the weather is bad underfoot but fine
overhead. However. Wilmington human.
ity is not soaring overhead and has to
be content with what Is showered down
upon II in the way Of pleasant weather.
The storm abated yesterday afternoon
just in time to avert tie-up of traffic On
railroads. The danger In the storm was IN
the drifting snow. which generally piles
up on the tracks and inc edes trains. The
p. b. and w. Railroad and the Delaware
Railroad manage dto keep trains going
and to cut through the drifts. although
one train was stalled in the cut at Nassau
near Lewes on the D.. NJ. and V. branch
of the Delaware Railroad.
BY last evening trolley cars were rum
ming on good schedule. but some OF
them were being run "double-header" In
order to facilitate trips up hill.
Possibly the greatest inconvenience wa.
to the rural mail carriers. and down Tho
state and through the Eastern Shore OF
Maryland the mail men remained AZ HON,
instead of trying to force their way
through binding snow mad huge drifts
Most Of them started out to-day, however
DR.. F.. f. O'Day started out in a double
team from Dover, and after going tive
miles - rig became stuck in the snow
DR.. ODay unhiothed his horses, left then
with a farmer and plodded his way atoo
back TO Dover. -o-.
Many vesselsth at weahered through
the gale down the bay yesterday limpe'
up to Philadelphia to-day none the wors'
for their experience.
The Norfolk EXPRESS trains from th'
South were late to-day. due TO delays II
crossing the Chesapeake.
The New York. Philadelphia and Nor
folk steamer Maryland, from Cap
Charles, had a seevre experience in cross

u. S. AND JAPAN FORM PACT
Agreement of Far-reaching Importance
Covering Policy in
Pacific.

Washington, Nov. 29.-Despite ofh.
cla' reticence, information from relia-
Die sources has been obtained of an
agreement of far-reaching importance
between the United States and japan
covering the policy of the two coutries
in lie Pacific.
hi agreement is based on the idea
OF encouraging and defending free and
peaceful commercial development in
the Pacific. 1t contains not only a
mutual guarantee to respect each orh.
er's territorial possessions there, but
defines the attitude OF the two coun-
tries towards China. binding each to
defend by every peaceful means Chi,
mas independence and integrity and
TO give equal commercial opportuni-
ties IN the Chinese empire to all ma.
tons. But, more important still, the
agreement in the event of complica-
lions threatening the status quo, binds
the United States and Japan to con.
suit each other with a view to acting
together.
