examination Of Drs Flint and Hirsch,
the States alienists whose examination
began yesterday.
Morschauser's expert cross-examina-
ton is long drawn out. and that with
the extensive reading from the former
records that ne stin has to do, threat
ems TO prolonE the trial into next week.
DIT. Austin Flint, Jerome's alieuist, look
the stand for cross-exarnination by
Morschauser when court vas convened
today. Morschauser went at him on
his testimony in other cases, in which
he had declared that parancia was cur
able and had been cured. IN this case
the alienist has declared that true
paTanoia' was incurable.
On Redirect examination by Jerome,
Dr Flint said the case of paranOia
which he had said was durable was of a
Inherent nature than ThaW's. Flint VAS
excused after a few more questions by
MOrSChauSer. and Dr.. Carlos y. Melon
aid, formerly Of the New York State
board of lunacy, JerOme's third alienist,
was called TO the stand.
Jerome read to DR.. Mcdonald a
lengthy extract from a text book on
psy chiatry, describing paranOia. The
allenlst said the description fitted Harry
Thaw like glove.
In answer to Jerome's questions, Nc
Donald gave instances of paranoiacs
who concealed their decisions. adding
that Thaw 'is suffering from paTanOia
Of the degenerate type"
rs this disease curable?" asked
Jerome.
i have never heard Of a case being
cured
Freedom Might Arouse.
DR.. Mcdonald said that Thaw's con-
finement in Matteawan would tend to
keep in allegiance Thaw's homicidal
tendencies and decisions, which free
dom would awaken.
DR.. Mcdonald stated that. to him,
Thaw's appearance and conduct In court
and on the witness stand indicated that
Thaw had no appreciation OF the Sc
robustness Of his situation, and that he
IS now insane.
Morschauser, on examination. at
tackled Mcdonald on his testimony for
the defense at the trial Of Richard
Prusser, the Albany broker who shot
Miles Mcdonald, his friend, and who
was released after an aCquittal, on the
grounds of insanity. He showed several
contradictions between McDonald's tes-
timony in that case and his testimony in
the present proceedings.

RAILROAD PROSPERITY.
How the Short Line Takes Care of
Its Traffic.

That the railroads are getting some
measure of prosperity these days,
may be Judged from the train service
that is being given by the Oregon
Short Line through Idaho.
-Four passenger trains a day are
now being run each way through
south Idaho, giving the public the
BEST service ever known in this part
Of the West. The trains are well
appointed, too, with everything nee
sssary to the comfort of the passen-
gers. For the past week, the train
service has been off schedule. thru
bad landslide over near LaGrande,
and one or two accidents on other
sastern connections; but mostly thru
he exceptionally ,.eavy traffic that
crowds even four trains a day. But
he service is again settling down to
normal, and the trains are being ruI
pretty much as tile time card shows.
All through the winter, the repair
shops were kept busy putting tt
,ompany's rolling stock in good or
Ter for heavy service. At one time,
there were more than 80 engines
;tanding in the Pocatello yards, full
~ repaired and ready to be fired up.
here was close to half a million dol
airs worth of idle machines in that
one yard, waiting for General Pros
oerity to come through with his army
md put them into service. But they
IRE not idle now Every engine that
S owned by the Short Line, from
he little "tea-pots" of the 800 class
little engines that the big ma
hines of today would wear on their
watch chain as ornaments to
he heaviest freight locomotives, ev-
srything that the road owns that runs
IN wheels, even including the 500
lass compounds, and the 7O0-class
aompounds, and the old crack pas
1enger engines of the 600-type, and
iome great Pacific type passenger
compounds belonging to the South
arn everything has been
pressed into service.
More than this, the Short Line is
aging a lot of 9O-pound steel rails
along the main line, though the old
30-pound rails were not nearly worn
cut, or unsafe The Rupert-Bliss
branch through Lincoln county is
art of the general scheme Of double
.racking the entire system. There is
cot much reason to be pessimistic
over the railroad situation in Idaho
