NEW TESTIMONY DISCOVERED IN
 SCHENK TRIAL
(Special from United Press.o


 Wheeling, W. Va, Jan 2O-The en- tire morning session in the 11th day of the trial of Mrs. Laura Farnesworth Schenk, was devoted to the cross ex- animation of Dr. J. J. Osborne, the defense's first medical expert.
 Dr. Osborne gave his opinion that a large dose of arsenic corrodes the stomach, a small dose irritates and a medicinal dose merely stimulates. Asked whether lead poisoning would make the victim insane Tt might, he replied.
 Mrs. Schenk, after all, may not take the stand in her own trial on the charge of poisoning her husband, J. O. Schenk. the rich packer. Frank O'Brien, one of her attorneys, tcSlay, declared there was a possibility that the prisoner will not be called. O'Brien said the discovery of brand new testimony makes the calling of Mrs. Schenk doubtful.
 We will produce. probably at the afternoon session, today" he said, "a witness who will tell startling story. His evidence will be one of the de- fense's strong links."
 The defense may be ready to surn up it's case by Saturday night. Attor- ney J. J. P. O'Brien made the state ment in court, today, after Judge Jor-. dan had announced that night sess: ons would be held hereafter. The third session will be held from 7:3e to 70 D. m.

THE AUTOMO-
 BILE WORLD
MOST VISITORS ARE BUYERS.

MOST VISITORS ARE BUYERS.
 Great as have been the strides of the commercial motor vehicle business in this country in the past couple of years, the interest displayed by bus mess men in the part two period Of the eleventh national automobile show this week in Madison Square Garden assures still greater develop ment in the coming year.
 The feature of the attendance that pleases the exhibitors most is that very few of the visitors are mere sightseers. With the exception of very small percentage. all of those who go to the Garden are either men looking for commercial motor vehicles adapted for use in their businesses, or women who go to examine the electric shown Some of the men visitors are interested in the electric passenger cars. but most of them have eyes only for the sturdy gasolene freight carry ing vehicles.
 X great many of the men visitors go to the Garden early in the morn ing and remain in the building until dinner time, so that the big restaurant is busy place at noon time. The restaurant does a lot of business at dinner time also, as some of the men visitors elect to stay in the building from the time the doors open in the morning until the lights are turned out at night.
 The Salesmen in the various spaces where commercial cars are shown have been having very busy time since the part two period of the show start ed Some of them said when the ab- sence of the evening dress last week was commented upon, that they had been kept so busy on Tuesday and Wednesday that they did not have time to change to evening clothes even if they had intended to dress up for the evening.
 There has not been much attempt at changing clothes for evening by the men in the spaces, as many of the exhibitors have declared this weeks show to be a strictly business affair in which formal dress has no part. At night the percentage of visitors in evening dress has naturally been much smaller than last week. as most of the men visitors have not bothered to dress up to go and examine deltv- cry wagons or trucks.
 The five ton Morgan truck shown on the main floor is not a brand-new vehicle, but one that has been in con- stant use for year and a half. This truck won two trophies recently, talk ing first prize in it's class in truck endurance contest at Boston late last year and winning first prize in another similar event held in New York city, few weeks after the Boston con- test.

NEW THEORY OF
 EXPLOSION THAT
 KILLED SAILORS
Especial from United Press. ]

Special from United Press.
 Washington, Jan. 20.---A new theory in explanation of the explosion OH board the United States battleship Delaware, was advanced, today, by Captain Charles A. Cove, commander of the ship. in which nine men were killed in the fire room.
 'I believed that one of the boiler tubes must have slipped from place. 7 said Captain Cove, who arrived here. today. "This would permit the es- cape of steam in the boiler and event. ually create pressure against the backheader. This pressure evidently finally became too great for the back header, forcing it to give away sud- denly. The explosion broke other tubes. I knew instantly when the accident was reported to me. that the men in the fireroom must have been killed.
 ''The Delaware goes into dock to- day, and a thorough exa animation and test of all of her boilers will be made.

MAIL ORDER PRINTING

Merchants who send out of town
for a dollars worth of printing do
more to rob the town of that which
is due it than the man who sends to
Chicago for two dollars worth of dry
goods. Ninety per cent of the cost
of job of the printing is for labor.
Ninety per cent of the wages paid the
printer is spent in his home town.
Thus practically every cent paid to
local printers is distributed right
here in Austin. When a man sends
to Chicago for household goods, he
robs the local merchant of his COM
mission and that commission is mere
ly the profits on the goods which may
be ten, twenty or thirty per cent, the
balance of each dollar going to the
jobber in the east.
The man who sends away for his
printing is taking exactly the same
course as he would take did he Send
down to Chicago for q man to come
up to NOV his lawn and clean out his
cellar, knowing all the time that his
helper would spend every cent Of the
wages keeping his family in Chicago
when idle laborers were living In
Austin. Mower Co., Republican.
