STEINHE|L CASE
MAY Be ABANDONED
TESTIMONY MORE FAVORABLE
TO DISCRIMINATORY OF
DREYFus INCIDENT.

Paris, Nov. 1.-THE testimony yes
terday at the trial of Nine. Steinheil,
charged with numbering her husband
and stepmother, was distinctly favor
able TO the defendant. The madame's
cook and the latter's son by mass
contradictions strengthened the i'm
preston in their mistress favor.
Her nurse retracted 4. previous depo-
sition in which she expressed the
opinion that the defendants illness
after the crime was simulated. Maui
rice Borderel, a wealthy merchant,
whom the state assumes Nine. Stein
he'll desired to marry, testified to his
belief in her innocence. The circum-
stantial case against the woman seems
to be rapidly breaking down and it is
rumored that the trial may be aban-
doned.
The anti-Dre yfus newspapers have
again begun to revamp the insinua-
lions that the crime involved a po-
litical plot for the destruction of evl-
dence regarding the death of EXPIRES
ident Faure, which the anti-Dreyfu-
sards claim was due to foul play, be
cause, as they alleged, Faure opposed
the revision of the Dreyfus case. The
court. however, evidently assumes
that former intrigues have no bearing
on the case.

Toronto. Nov. 11.--Delegates from
the Des Moines and Sioux City central
bodies were barred from the American

when the electrical workers fight

eral at London, to the department OF
commerce and labor Wagee are be-
ing lowered and the hours of work

The gravity of the situation is
yividly set forth by the statistics of

These show THAI in the first three DAYS
OF registration in London last month
$500 more persons applied for work
than in the corresponding three days

clared last night that she would tell
the whole story of the S643,000 theft
when the case came to court. She
denied she ever received money from

by Warmer. Mrs. stewards reserve

rlner," she said, and never gave in
formation TO the railroad about his
shortage. 1t was another woman did
it all; woman ] thought was my

the whole story and will tell It ia
court. too. 1t will make a sensa-
ton .
One OF the women involved started
to leave Cincinnati last night, blu,
was advised by detectives that II she

The question exercising the rail

Warmer claims he lost II in stoch
gambling and satisfying the demands
of blaekmailers, but that is unsatis

PRESIDENT UNFOLDS
HIS FUTURE POLICY

Richmond, Va. Nov. 11.--"During
my sixty days travel there has been
a moment or two of deliberation.
During that time l have been study
ing what the executive should recon-
mend to the incoming congress.
When l think of the number of things
congress ought to do, am staggered
lest it may not find time to do them. "
In the final speech of his 10000
mile trip, before an immense audience
yesterday afternoon, President Taft
thus prefaced his preliminary state
ment of some recommendations OF his
first annual message to congress.
Concerning the reclamation of arid
lands, the president said:
1--WE havereached the time where
great many people in the west are
counting on an immediate supply of
water for the land upon which they
have settled. which is not forthcom-
ing because the money applied on the
reclamation fund does not come
quickly enough to meet the exigency
/ am strongly in favor of anticipat
ing that fund, which is raised solely
by the sale of public lands, by issu.
ing bonds
ct seems wise also that the gov
ernment shoulG reserve some control
over water power sites and cps. lands
ara phosPhates so they win not come
into the hands of one corporation, but
be retained by the government, with
the power TO restrict prices at which
coal. or at least power, is sold to pre-
vent the absorption into one command
