Sad Fatality.

Florence, Special.-News was re-
ceived in the city Saturday morning
of the death of Mrs. Charles D. Bray,
at a hospital in Richmond, Va, Fri
day night. Mrs. Bray had been in
bad health for several months owing
to a nervous break down, and it was
thought that she would improve I'M
der treatment in the hospital in
Richmond. Mrs. Bray had only. been
in the hospital about a week, having
been taken there on last Friday by
Mr.. Bray, who after spending few
days with her, returned home. He
received a telegram Friday afternoon
summoning him to come at once, ow-
ing to turn for the worse in the
condition of Mrs. Bray. He arrived
too late, however, to see her alive.
All Florence grieves at the loss of
one of her most beloved young mat
rOnS.

FOR DOWN. ARD REVISION.
Statement Is Given Out At White House Setting
Forth In DetaiI What The President Had 10
Say TO Twenty Three Members OF Con-
sress Who Called To Protest

publican party. he said the ques-
tion in each case was question of fact
to be determined by evidence, as to
whether the present duty was needed
for protection or whether the rate
was excessive, so that a downward
revision or putting the article on the
free list would not injury the In
dustry.
"He repeated the platform of the
Republican party and said he had al
ways understood that it meant a
dowward revision in many instances,
though perhaps in some few instances
an increase might be needed; that he
reached this construction of the plat
form on what he understood to be the
principle Of protection and its pusti-
fcation, namely, that after an indus
try was protected by duty equal to
the difference between the cost or
production abroad and the cost
in this country, including fair
profit to the manufacturer, the en-
ergy and enterprise of American bus
mess men and capitalists, the effec-
tiveness of American labor and the
ingenuity of American inventors un-
der the impulse of competition be-
hind the tariff wall, would reduce the
cost of production, and that, with the
reduction and the cost of production
the tariff rate would become unnec-
essarily high and ought to be re-
duced

"Why did he saw that ~

"Why did he say that?'
"We were discussing his mental
condition. I had asked him what he
meant, and he said: you know I
was not crazy on the night that I
shot white I asked him again and
he said: you know that I missed
White by two minutes on the day be-
fore. ~
Thaw, when asked about his wife IS
testimony after court, said he was
not surprised at her attitude but de-
MED that he ever threatened her life.
Before leaving White Plains Thurs
day night, Evelyn fhaw said:
"If the Thaw family had done the
right thing by me 1 would never have
taken the stand to testify against my
husband. But they wouldn't guar
antee me the allowance I asked for.
81 must go out and get a living
some how. I can't go back to the
stage. Ny notoriety would prohibit
chat. I will try to get work as
model. I can do it, too, lam sure.
"Often I feel sorry I ever saw the
stage at all. AS model I can be
good girl and earn enough to keep
me. 1 can hope for nothing from
my husbands family.
CT don't know whether or not my
husband will harm me if he is re-
leased. He has made one threat,
though, and that has terrified me. y

MRS. EVELYN NEsBIT THAW TELLS OF THE THREAT

White Plains, N. Y, Special-Har-
~ X. Thaw's wife, formerly the
chorus girl, Evelyn Nesbit, went on
the stand here Thursday and gave
damaging testimony against him. 1t
was the strongest point scored so
far by the State in its fight to keep
Thaw In the asylum for the criminal
insane at Matteawan. When Thurs
days session was concluded, ad-
journment was taken until July 26.
sfDM Harry X. Thaw threaten to
take your life?" she was asked di-
rectly by Deputy Attorney General
Clarke.
The court room was hushed and
Evelyn Thaw turned appealingly to
Justice Mills. She begged to be al
lowed not to answer because she said
she knew she would incur his ever
lasting anirosity.
But the court ruled that the only
possible grounds upon which she
could decline to answer were that it
wonld tend to incriminate her, and
he added that he did not see how
that would be applicable to her sit
uation.
tsYes, he did," she said in low
voice.
tsWhat were his exact words?'
demanded Mr.. Clarke.
He said: 'WhenI get out of here
I suppose ] will have to kill you. , ~

Washington, Special.-All doubt
as to whse President Taft stands
with regard to the downward revision
gof the tariff was swept away Friday
when statement was given out at
the White House setting forth in de-
tail what the President had to say TO
% Republican members Of Congress
who called to protest against putting
raw material on the free list.
The President declarese that the
Republican party is committed to a
downward revision; that he has new
er had any other idea Of the Chicago
platform, and that he personally has
promised a downward revision to the
people.
TINS statement was interpreted in
some quarters here Friday night as
direct notification to the conferees
on the tariff bill that if the measure
they finally agree upon does not con-
gtitute Il material reduction in spe-
eifc duties, the President will veto
It.
efThe President said that he was
not committed to the principle of free
raw material. but that he was COM
mitted to the principle of a down
ward revision of the tariff, which he
had promised, and that he was
obliged to look at the matter, not
from the standpoint of any particu-
lar district, hut from the standpoint
of responsibility for the entire Re-

Big Fire at Rocky Mount.

Rocky Mount, Special was
discovered in room on the Sec
ond floor of the Hammond Hotel
Saturday morning at 4 O'Clock. The
building was crowded, containing
about 100 guests.
Rare presence of mind caused the
opening of tap on the third floor
by the first fireman who reached the
burning building. This preserved
the stairway until the third floor
occupants could hurry from the
building in their night clothes.
The loss is reported at about $780,
600 on the building, without insur-
ance; furnishings about $500. part
ly insured.
