STEINHEIL DEFENCE
ACCUSED WOM1NS
DUEL WITH JUDGE.
Self-Accusing actor at Trial
Quickly 4sserts His
Innocence.
lRr French cable to The Tribune. ]


Paris Nov 4.-The pluck. highly
strung tenacity and mental vigor shown
by Mime. Steinheil in her struggle against
the discriminating network of questions
put TO her with carefully thought out
persistency by the president of the
court. Judge Wales, continued 10 be the
striking feature of her trial for the
murder of NJ Steinheil and Mime. Japy,
to-day.
Her energy, evidenced since the begin
ming of the presidents incisive inter-
rogatory. was as fiery and unfiaggins
as was the case yesterday.
Mime. Steinheirs nicely modulated
voice, the distinction of her dictiOn and
delivery, together with her alert
nimble wit. elected on all sides admira-
tion for her intellect and for her brill
liant personality; but at the same time
she caused less and less favorable I'M
pressions in regard to her innocence.
Her gestures to-day were more rapid
and more impassiOned than yesterday,
and her dainty little white cambria hand
kerchief. which she grasped nervously In
her right hand, gave effective stress 10
the words or phrases she wished TO bring
home to the jury as she moved il about,
very much as a leader Of an orchestra
wields his baton.
Nine Steinheil shared the general
amazement this afternoon during the
interruption of the eccentric youth VINO
delayed the proceedings by announcing
that he was the mysterious female ac-
complice with the red wig.
Although the physician of the Assize
Court gave Mime. Steinheil a tonic. dur
ing the brief recess. she did not seem at
al! fatigued as she left the courtroom.
and maintained the same well-bred atti-
tude of calm confidence and dignity.

RECORD ON FIRST RUN

RECORD ON FIRST RUN
II was on the first Of her runs over the
measured mile course. following seVerai
preliminary rounds. that the North Da-
kota made her record to-day. The tide
was in her favor. and this is not sub
,racted from the best figures In the
recorded mean. or average, however.
tidal corrections are made. The nve
trials over the. mile course were re-
corded as follows: - -. 81. .4s6. -. Is.
u. 500 and 22 133. The influence OF the
tide on the vessels speed is shown in a
comparison of the time In succeeding
miles
While the five speed runs were being
recorded the North Dakota was also
undergoing a two hours test for con-
sumption of oil and coal The Delaware
and the North Dakota are the first bat
tIeships built for the United states
navy to use the oil spraying method
The showing is understood 10 have been
satisfactory.

pressed great satisfaction with the bat

..at the ease with which the turbines
worked and with the great amount Of

ton il is perhaps interesting To note
that the Delaware. which was built by

Captain Edward g. Evans. who mar

hundred men pushed the vessel 70 her
record performance.
Beginning at O'Clock tomorrow

anchor and prepare for her 24-hOur run
at Il knots. Following this. she will go
under another 24-hour test at 10 knots.
Within six months il is expected the
North Dakota and the Delaware will
take their places in the van of the
American navy's line of sea fighters. and
will then rank as the greatest battle

House Of Lords Erpected to

London. Nov. 4.-The House of Com
mons tonight passed the third reading
of the finance bill by a vote of 3I9 to 1i9.
The scene i'm the House was a memoir
able one. Seldom has there been a
larger attendance of members and peers.
and the diplomatic galleries were
crowded 10 their utmost capacity.
Chancellor Lloyd-George. Premier As
quith and Mr.. Balfour. leader of the OPP
position. all spoke during the course Of
the evening. and tense excitement pre-
vailed throughout. all present appearing
10 be imbued with the historic character
of the occasion.
Mr.. Asquith. in a brief speech closing
the debate. said that il was incumbent
upon those who objected to the govern
ment's taxes 10 provide some alternative
scheme to meet the nations necessities
Where was this scheme. he asked

issues before the houses-the taxes pro-
posed by the budget or tariff reform.
Division was then taken. and the an
nouncement of the vote. showing the
governments majority to be larger than
had been expected. was greeted with
prolonged Ministerial cheers. The Con-
servatives had counted upon a score of
Liberal abstentions. but apparently only
two Liberals Joined the Nationalists in
abstaining from voting. The Unionists
had hoped that the Nationalists would
join them in opposition To the budget.

ginning on November 22.
London. Nov. 5.-The Liberal papers
this morning are pleased that the budget
has left the House Of Commons backed
by solid majority. representing the
whole strength of the party, including
the Labor members. The only matter
of discomfort is the refusal of the Ma
tionalists TO support the budget. Their
support. however. could hardly have been
expected. in view of the fact that they
opposed the government on the second
reading.
The abstention of the Nationalists is a
declaration of war against the House of
Lords when the struggle is carried into
the country at the general election.

UNIVERSITIES PROMOTE BIG
EDUCATIONAL SCHEME
Pupils in Leading Colleges May Have
Opportunity to Go Abroad
for Part of Their
Studies
tBy Associated Press.)

LONDON, June 9O.-A scheme for
the interchange of university students
between the United States, Canada and
the United Kingdom, rivaling in i'm
portance that established under the
will of the late Cecil Rhodes, is in
process of formation, with every pros
pect of success, it was announced yes
terday.
The idea, which is supported by an
influential committee, headed by Prime
Minister Asquith and Lord Strath
coma, high commissioner of Canada,
and includes the heads of the chief
universities in the United Kingdom,
and has also the Endorsement of the
presidents of the American and Ca
madam universities. aims at providing
opportunities to students of the three
countries to obtain some real insight
into the life, progress and customs of
other nations at the least possible ex
pense.
In the first place, the promoters sug-
gest the provision of certain travelling
scholarships, the selection for which
should be along the lines of the Rhodes
scholarships, the selected candidate in
addition to having academic qualifica
lions to be known as an "all-round
man."
Twenty-eight of these scholarships
are proposed, fourteen to be available
for universities in the United Kingdom,
ten for America and four for Canada,
the American and Canadian students
securing them to be given ten weeks
tour of Great Britain under the guild
ance of a university man.
The British students are to be given
similar tours of America and Canada.

RIVERSIDE, June 30.-The turning
of a garden hose on a number of young
negro girls holding a lawn party pre-
cipitated last night a small riot in
which guns were freely drawn and at
least one shot fired, while several per-
sons were injured by bricks and stones
which were used as missiles and in
personal encounters.
While watering a lawn for a neigh
Dor in the east side, Charles Stanley
alleges he was annoyed by remarks
made to him by the negro girls, who
were holding a party in an adjacent
yard. Becoming exasperated with the
girls, Stanley turned the stream from
the garden hose towards the girls.
Several of them were wetted by the
water and all resented instantly the
unexpected deluge.
One young woman ceased her eX-
carnations of anger long enough to
find a brick and hurl it at Stanley.
The aim was true and Stanley dropped
his hose and is alleged to have invaded
the adjacent yard and to have engaged
in hand to-hand encounters with the
negro girls.
The screams and shouts of the young
women attracted the father of one of
them. Seeing that his daughter had
got the worst of a close engagement
with Stanley, the man attacked the
white boy, who retreated to the adj
joining yard. The negro followed, but
was confronted by a shotgun in the
hands of the owner of the premises.
5eIigerents Arm Themselves
Hostilities ceased for few moments
while the belligerents set about secur-
ing arms. The father of the negress
who had been roughly used by Stanley
soon returned with a pistol. He was
met with a shower of bricks and rocks
thrown by friends of Stanley, who had
been attracted by the noise of battle.
For a few minutes rocks flew fast, the
negro girls returning the fire from
the white oys with good effect. Other
negroes came to the defense of the
girls and an advance was made on the
whites.
While several guns were displayed
openly and the situation seemed Sc
rious for a second, the arrival of sew
eral adult whites put an end to hos
Titles The weapons were wrested
from the hands of the blacks, one
being discharged by the friendly eff
forts of. a white man to take it from
a negro.
The shot instantly dispelled the bel
ligerents, as the members of each side
ran for cover. Four negroes were
later arrested by the police, and it Is
said that other arrests will follow
