testimony of Ostby and Rldner was not
to be considered and that wisehart's
was colored.
Wisehart, who not only acted as
witness. but also reported the trial pro-
ceedings for the New York Evening
Sun. was accused By Fielder Of nav
ing misrepresented the facts Of yes
terday's trial. He read from a COPY Of
the Sun to prove that a man who
could distort the news Of a trial could
not be trusted to give accurate testi-
mony.
Fielder declared e~mphahcally that
those who followed the trial would
bear with him in the statement that
there was no intention on the part
of F1tzherbert to benefit pecuniarily
by the Ridner-ostby transaction.
He did not pay a very high tribute
to Fitzherbert's intelligence and plead
ed that he be given the benefit of the
doubt. Senators Davis. Gebhardt, Sill
ger and the others followed Fielder's
lead. Each in 1T pointed out that,
although they had the utmost conf
dence in the honesty, fairness and pro-
bity of the Newark newspaperrnen
who testified, they nevertheless felt
that these men who were writing a
report Of the hearing at the time Fitz-
herbert explained his connection with
Ridner must have gotten the wrong
impression and jumped TO conclusions
There was the disposition on the
Democratic side to pronounce Fitzher-
bert lacking In discretion, but not dis
honest.
Senators Edge, Pierce. Nichols and
Read made the telling speeches on the
Republican side, assuring the Senate
that, though they would vote F1tzher-
bert guilty, they were actuated by mo-
tives that were honest.
Senator Pierce, who is a lawyer. de-
ciared that he was prepared TO dis
card all the evidence excepting tina OF
Fitzherbert's own admissions and the
testimony of the Newark newspaper
men. He then read from the notes Of
one of the reporters and declared that
he was convinced that the reports OF
the public hearing as set forth in the
papers before him were correct, and
that because of his belief he concluded
that Fitzherbert vas guilty Of the

excitement.
After a stormy debate, during which
Minority Leader Fielder accused the
Republicans Of playing politics. a vote
of straight partisanship decided that
the Republicans had won and that
sentence would be delayed.
Privately the Democrats charge that
the Republicans. knowing that they
cannot expel Fitzherbert, are depend
ing upon public opinion to cause the
Democrats to change their minds or
to induce Fitzherbert TO resign.
A Democratic Senator who Is in a

BERNHARDT RAPS
MILITANT WOMEN
Believes There Are Better Pur-
suits Than Politics for Weld
ing ''Divine Influence"

LONDON, Sept. 26.-Women and poll
tics formed the subject of an interview
with Sarah Bernhardt upon her arrival
in London. The actress makes an inter-
esting comparison of the temper of men
and women, and discourages the suf-
fra gists on the ground that there is a
nobler opening for feminine activity in
art music and literature. She said:
The temper of men differs much from
that of women. The latter are charm
ing, but they do not create any com
pact enthusiasm in an audience. Men are
chiefly responsible for enthusiastic au-
diences and it is the same thing in poll
tics. Voting does not mean real poll
tics and cabinets and parIiaments are
better without women.
Art, literature and drama are living
and passionate, and that is where women
are needed at their finest The modern
woman is an increasing power all over
the world and there are many openings
where she might WELD a divine influence
At one time men confined that influence
too much to the home; it is glory often,
but was frequently an unmeaning sub
Jugation Women were too restricted in
the past century, but now they are hap
PLY emancipatng themselves
81 am prejudced for art it is true,
because politics offers nothing worth
while to the nature of woman The vote,
Yes; that might well be allowed women,
for it is really ridiculous to see great
artistic debarred from voting, while a
man who knows nothing above sweeping
a staircase is allowed the franchise

been agreed between them, requested
that ! make decision between them.
My father had often objected to the
constant attention of both, and he, too,

chose Gerdine, Preston at once left my
home and went to town. He later re-
turned and told me good bye. | did not
for minute think that he was contem-

thought that he meant he would not
call again. He had been gone just a
short time when some one told me that
man was lying near my home, either
drunk or dead. My uncle went out and
picked him up and brought him in the
house, and / at once recognized him
as Preston"

claimed to Miss McKinnon:
