TESTIMONY IN The
INQUEST OVER
STEVENS
Engineer, Fireman and Con
ductor Give Statements
to Coroner.

In the little dingy office of justice E.
B. McClintock, the last chapter of the
story of the railroad accident which
cost Isaac Webster Stevens his life. was
written Wednesday afternoon by the
justice on common yellow paper with
a common black pen and common black
ink.
The justice took down the testimony
of the witnesses who were present at
the time of the accident. Only one of
these actually saw the buggy and its
occupants; he was H. S. Spence. the fire
man on the special train who testi-
fled: when I first saw the horse and
buggy they were about so feet from the
track. travelling toward the track. the
horse walking. We were travelling at
a rate of about IS or 20 miles an hour
and when we had approached to about
$50 feet from the crossing saw they
were not going to stop. 1 called TO the
engineer: Stop her. or words to that
effect.
1.-THE engineer applied the air when
the horse was, as far as l could tell.
about over the south rail. travelling
north at the time we struck them. 1t
appeared to me that the guggy was
clear of the track at the time the en-
CINE struck the horse.
THE man (deceased) was on the right
side of the buggy and the girl on the
left. When the engine struck the horse
it must have pulled the buggy against
the side of the engine. overturning the
buggy and throwing the girl out and
the man must have come in contact
with some part of the side of the en-
CINE. We went about five car lengths
after the accident. 1 did not go back

thing to me; the exact words 1 don't

HIS CUSS WORDS ON RECORDS
Discovers Swearing by Gramo-
phone Is Punishable.

Misunderstanding by gramophone
is a punishable offense in Hungary,
as Herr Schwarz Of Arad has found
to his cost. Schwarz, a dealer in
gramophones, complained that the
singing of milliner girls in a neigh
boring workroom disturbed his rest
in the early mornings. His protests
to the management were without re-
suit.
One morning the girls were horri-
fed to hear a stream of abuse, inter
larded with high-favored Hungarian
oaths, directed at them from a gramo-
phone placed in Schwarz's window
AS the cerlllean outburst had been
heard by neighbors, the girls brought
a SANDER action against Schwarz.
The gramophone mans explanation
in court was that he had been testing
some new records, and added the re-
markable statement that there was a
demand for swearing" records to
amuse parties. But Schwarz's own
voice was recognized when the Of
Tending record was played in court
and he was ordered to pay So dam
ages.

CATTLE RANGES ARE PASSING
Wyoming Ranchman DepIores Effect
of Dry Farming.

The vast range" of the western
"cow country" which has been the
scene of romantic Indian and cowboy
stories since the pioneer days, is fast
becoming thing of the past. The
cattlemen of Wyoming say that
things are not as they were in the
good old days" before fences and dry
farmers found their, way into the
grazing states Of the northwest.
With the advent Of the dry farmers
who take out government homesteads
Of 100 or 800 acres, the large cattle
ranch owners saw the great expanse
of government grazing land cut up
into small tracts and fenced off, The
farmers picked out the choice land
along the few rivers and creeks Of the
country, thus fencing in the natural
watering places.
'The next ten years will see a great
change in all this country" said w. T..
Wolfe owner Of a $4,000 acre ranch
in eastern Wyoming. There will be a
bigger change than in the past twenty
five years, | believe.
ut is only a question Of time when
all except a few of the cow people

suit will be that a great many Of the
cattlemen will go to South America

JAPANESE SOLVE PROBLEM
OF CHEAP PEARL GROWING.
Produce $500 Specimens at Cost OF
but So by Secret Process.

A secret method of producing pearls
which would make them as plentiful
and as cheap as the collar button if
1t should become generally known
was referred to by Professor Bash
ford, dean of Columbia university, at
the annual meeting CT the American
Fisheries society in New York re.
Gently
I'm a little harbor about fifty miles
south Of Tokyo. Japan" he said, ''the
pearl oyster has been forced by a
secret process to secrete perfect and
spherical pearls. When | was at the
University OF Japan the emperor him
self opened these oysters and took out
the pearls, so there is no doubt about
the genuine success of this expert
ment.
There is no danger of the method
becoming known just yet, the secret
having been withheld, even from the
emperor; otherwise pearls would be
in danger of great fall in value. By
the new method it costs So to produce
a pearl worth 5000.
'This secret was the invention Of
the late DR.. N. Nishikawa, a graduate
of the University of Tokyo, and he
bequeathed it to his father-in-law,
Mikemoto, one of the most famous
pearl raisers of Japan.
Il do not know this process, but
surmise that the pearl is formed by
Introducing scientifically piece of
mother-of-pearl into the shell, around
which the pearl is formed, taking the
place of the worm which nature uses
to form the core of the naturally
grown pearl. The only way to dis
close this would be to cut into one
of the pearls, but that would be an
expensive way to get g hint of the
secret"

ICRIPPEN TELLS HIS STORY
American Dentist Takes Witness
Stand in Own Behalf in Trial
for Wife Murder.

London-The climax was reached
in the sensational Crippen murder
case Thursday when Dr. H. H. Grip
pen took the witness stand to refute
the charge that he had murdered his
wife, that he might marry his pretty
typist, Ethel Clare Leneve.
Crippen admitted that he lied con-
cerping his wife's disappearance.
81 said those things to cover up the
scandal. for both our sakes," said the
witness. at is true that many of the
things | said were false. She repeat
edly threatened to leave me, telling
me that she could go to America to
join Bruce Miller. I last saw her on
January 81 of this year, and | be-
lieved that she fled to America. To
avoid scandal I concocted a story that
she had gone to America to attend
to certain private business for me in
California, and that while on her way
across the American continent she
had died and had been incinerated
there"
Telling of his flight to North Amer
lea, Crippen said:
Ethel and I were hunted and we
wanted to escape. The quartermaster
Of the Montrose volunteered to help
us. We4were to be smuggled ashore
in a piece of baggage, but our plan
was frustrated. | wrote the suicide
note to throw the authorities off the
track and give us more time to get
away"
