President Taft will begin work this

short. viii be completed late this even
ing, and tomorrow Mr. Taft will con-
suit with members Of his Cabinet con-
cerning its contents. " his plan is

tomorrow night
IL is not considered likely that the
message win contain recommendations
Of any other legislation than the tariff
and bill for an Inheritance tax.
In order to devote his time TO pre-
pairing the message, Mr.. Taft anne:nC-
ed early this afternoon that he would
receive no callers for the rema nder
Of the day. He hopes 10 carry out the

JANER TESTIF|ES
IN HIS OWN BEHALF
Man Accused of Abducting
Little Girl May Know
His Fate BY Night.

BALTIMORE, March lit is expect
ed that the evidence in the case OF
Joseph M. Janer. the wealthy Brooklyn
man, accused OF abducting and mistreat-
ing eleven-year-oId Catherine IlOerch, OF
Brooklyn. will be completed today. and,
as the case is being tried before two
judges, it is possible that a verdict will
be reached before night
The chief witness tOCaS was Janer
himself. he was doubly anxious to testi-
fy TO cOunteract what is admitted TO
have been the damaging effect of the
little girls story which was whispered
on the stand in a voice so low that
few besides the counsel and Judges
Burke and Duncan could hear.
Janer cOntended that he brought the
girl 70 Baltimore with the distinct
understanding that her mother was 10
join them within two days
The defense will probably introduce
several character witnesses and will
make the most of what is termed the
'imprOba bility Of a man OF Janer's age
End character being guilty Of such gross
misconduct"
Mrs. JaneT, who is said to have re-
nounced her husband aftSr his departure
with the LoeTch girl, is an interested
spectator at the trial and has had sew
era talks with her husband.
Whether the defense will call her as a
witness has not been decided. The teS-
timOny of Drs. SamuelS and Martin thar
the girl had been mist -eated, but not
seriously injured, made Janer vince N
his seat and turn his face from the wit
ness box.

OFFICERS DESERT
WRECKED STEAMER
Hope Abandoned Of Saving

BOSTON, March IA wireless dis
patch from the revenue cutter Gresham
says she has taken Captain Jewell, a
pilot and three men off the wreck OF
the Eoratio Hall. which has been de-
serted
Practically all hope has been aban-
doned Of saving the Horatio Hall. the
Portland and New York steamer, which
has beer sunk off Monomoy Point. as a
result OF ner collision with the Metro

This morning, with the tide at flood
and With A westerly wind blowing of
shore, the water IN which the Hall is
sunk was reasonably quiet and Captain
Jewell considered her position not SO
dangerous.
Ten miles north Of the point where the
wreck Of the Hall lies is tho II. +

Thompson sent his steamer ahead al

while he with his crew rescued her FIVE
passengers and portion Of the crew.
He then raced for the Long Beach OF

ules TO which I have devoted much at
tention, and I would not hazard an opin-
ion as 10 what will be their final form
when the biU is signed by the Presi-
dent
The confusion attending the tariff sit
uatiOn is one great reason why the
Administration ana it's friends want to
do everything possible to make the way
smooth for revision. They take the
position that nothing which can secure
harmony should be left undone. If
therefore, there are members who are
particularly interested IN other mat
ters than the tariff. they Will be given
opportunity to obtain consideration OF
their propositions.
That Mr.. Taft intends to devote
much time and care 10 the prepara-
tion OF his message is shown by the
program which he hopes 20 follow this
afternoon, Friday and Saturday To-
day he received callers. among whom
there were many Senators and Repre-
sentatives, only until noon. After that
he began work on his message. Il was
announced at the White House Offices
that. if possible. this schedule Of re-
cetviug callers only until noon and then
work on the message would be followed

Of twenty monkeys. II is in the nature
Of a discovery that a monkey can learn
something new every day, even though
its environment never changes and the
only persons IL is allowed 20 see are the
professors With whom 1t is constantly
associated.
This is just the discovery which the
officials Of George Washington hoped
would be made. when the experiments
were begun, and, as a result, the uni
versity may now be said to have given
70 science the latest knowledge per-
tanning 70 monkeology. While no def
mite information concerning the expert
mentS has been given out, II is expect
ed that within a short time the whole
matter Will be published IN thesis form
and that every one will have the Op.
port unity Of finding out what human
instincts are possessed in the animal
world.
Incidentally, il is runorad at the uni
versity that the publication will reveal

Because she was the only one to re-

Cecilia Katherine Kennedy, pretty
young Washington girl, has come into
a small fortune. and is now living in an
attractive apartment in the Shoreham
Hotel Although the woman appealed
10 her old friends to forget the past and
be with her at the end. they did not
heed the call, and so Miss Kennedy, A
comparative stranger, fell heir 10 the

Miss Kennedy has not been able 10

Attorney Ralph Given listened 10 the
account of the attack from the child
and her mother. and, promptly decided
that the evidence justified a more grave
charge than that which hsc originally
been made against her assailant. Ac-
cordingly he faced a charge that car

ROOSEYELT'S ORDER
QUOTED BY WARNER
Defendant in Libel Suit Says
District Attorney Was
Too Busy.

Brainard n. Warner resumed the wit
ness stand today in the suit in which Dis
trict Attorney D. W. Baker is prose-
eating him for alleged libel through
tie publication in a newspaper or GER
tain articles criticising Mr. Baker for
activity in Maryland politics
Cross-examined by Henry l.. Davis,
counsel for Mr.. Baker, Mr.. Warner said
he felt justified in criticising the Dis
trict Attorney, because. in his opinion,
Federal officer had no right to par
ticipate in politics He added that, as
he had Interpreted the civil service
rules. Mr.. Bakers political activity had
constituted a violation of these rules
Mr. Warner admitted that on March
Is and y. 1903. he had addressed letters
to the Attorney General cha rging Mr..
Baker with breach OF the Civil Serv-
ice rules. and asking that he be pre-
vented from further participation in
maryland politics He also admitted.
When questioned by Mr. Davis. that the
attorney General had replied that Mr..
Baker, being an appointee OF the Presi-
dent. Was not amenable to the Civil
Service rules.
Quotes Roosevelt Order.
At this juncture M Warner read
an opinion OF the Attorney General
bearing on this subject. and an or
ger ISSUED iaSt- year DE president
Roosevelt directing Federal employees
10 refrain from participation in par
tisan politics He said that in his
judgment the President intended this
order 10 apply to all Federal officers
holding positions similar TO Mr..
Bakers.
Continuing his testimony, Mr.. War
ner declared that he had opposed Mr..
Bakers candidacy for the chairman
ship OF the Montgomery county Repub-
lican committee as far back as two
years before Warmers campaign for
Congress last year. He admitted how
ever, that he had addressed political
meetings from the same platform with
Mr. Baker after he manifested this op-
position.
His Opposition Old.
To show that this opposition ante
dated the publication of the alleged
libelous articles upon which the present
suit Is based. MI Baker testified that
he had .chided' his son, 3. II. Warner.
jr., for furnishing funds ard otherwise
supporting Mr.. Baker in q previous
campaign for political office in Mont
gomery county.
The court adjourned before the con
cIusion OF Mr.. Warmers testimony. 1t
is probable that he will be called 20
| the stand again tomorrow.
