"Considered Collectively"

The hearing dragged yesterday, as Thaw's
counsel continued 10 take up the large
quantity Of exhibits. letters and other data,
in the case and ask Or. Macdonald to point
out the indications OF paranoia in each one.
The alenist did not diverge from his line
Of answers 10 all such questions-that.
taken alone, the exhibits had little slgnif-
canoe, but considered collectively they
formed the basis for a complete diagnosis
Of paranoia
Drs A6olph Meyer. William A White and
Charles X. Mills. the three alienists who
will testify that Thaw is sane, moved away
from their regular seats with the Thaw
family yesterday and drew their chairs
closer to the lawyers table. where they
were constantly in speaking distance Of Mr..
shearn while he was questioning Or. Mac
donald. II was evident that Thaw and his
counsel had singled out DR.. Macdonald as
the most desirable alenist on the opposing
side against whom to direct the brunt Of
ne technical medical side Of the case. Or.
Macdonald once pointedly criticised Or.
Meyer for framing questions for Mr..
shearn
II should Ike Mr. Meyers To question
me II he IS to prepare the questions" said
DR. Macdonald He is violating the
ethics OF his profession by preparing ques-
tons for counsel in a case in which he is
&c be called as witness. and IS doing
something which has been condemned by
medical societies everywhere. and very re-
Gently"
At one point in his testimony Dr. Mac
donald said that as a small factor in reach
ing his opinion of Thaws mental condition
he had assumed from the evidence that
Thaw was addicted TO perverted practices
Such an assumption seemed to nettle Mr..
Shearn, who shouted Indignantly:
can you point TO any evidence Of per-
case except the testimony Of the periured
woman, Susan A. Merrill"
The witness said that he did not assume
that all the testimony Of the Merrill woman
was true, but that such suggestion on her
part connected with the lewd pictures Thaw
had drawn led him TO believe that Thaw
INDUCED I'm such practices. In angwer to
many OF Mr.. Shearn's questions IN regard
TO the appearance of insane decisions In
specific writings OF Thaw DR.. Macdonald
would answer:
Il cannot express an opinion on any iso-
lated or fragmentary part of the case"
Testimony in Gallagher Case.
Mr.. Shearn tried for more than an hour 70
draw a parallel between Dr. Macdonald S
testimony at the trial of Gallagher. the
man who shot Mayor Gaynor, and his for
mer testimony at the Thaw trials Mr..
Shearn contended that based on similar
set of facts the witness had expressed a
contradictory opinion at the Gallagher trial
When the subject Of Gallagher's trial was
first preached Mr.. Shearn declared that

Says Japanese Poverty
Prevents War With u. S

NEW ORLEANS, La, July S.-The
only thing that prevents the United
States and Japan from going to war on
one pretext or another Is that the Unit
ed States does not care to provoke hos
tilities, and Japan has not the money
with which to defray the tremendous
expenses which would be necessary in
the event of a clash in the Pacific, ac-
cording to John Lohmann. tobacco
planter and manufacturer of Manila,
who arrived In New Orleans last even
ing.
las governments the United States
and Japan are friendly; as people the
American and the Japanese hate each
other" he declared. Had Japan the
money 1t is my personal opinion that
she would not hesitate to declare war
on this country"
Mr.. Lokmann, who has lived in the
Philippines for seventeen years. and
that when war between this country
and Japan finally begins the United
States will not seriously attempt to hold
the Philippines.
The principal object of tho United
States In the Philippines as he sees 1t,
is for trade expansion. Before the
Spani sh- American war the business OF
the Philippines, largely in the hands of
English and German merchants, was
controlled by England and Germany"
he said "NoW those same merchants
do their business with San Francisco
and New York.

BR|NDLE BULLDOG
NEARLY CHEWS OFF
EARS OF A CHILD

NEW YORK. July s.-Jacob Schwartz,
Ave years old. 161 East 18th street,
was attacked by a bulldog in the rear
yard of his residence yesterday after
noon and bitten on the face. Both ears
were chewed, the left one left hanging
by a thread, his nose badly lacerated,
and the lower part of his face torn.
The boy, after being treated, was left
at his residence, where his condition
Is critical.
The ground floor at the above address
Is occupied by Anton Peshar and his
two children. Peshnar owns a brindle
bull
The two Peshar boys had the dog
in the yard playing when, according to
the elder, young Schwartz appeared
upon the fire-escape and said he was
coming down. He was told not to,
and, according to the Peshar boys,
started to throw clothes pins down at
the dog. He then started to descend
the fire-escape to the yard.
Both Peshar boys say when Jacob
had reached the lower rung OF the iron
ladder the dog grabbed him by the leg
and pulled him to the ground.
AS the Schwartz boy started to arise
the dog leaped upon him again and
sunk his teeth into the boys neck. Both
the Peshar boys tried to drag the dos
away, and succeeded in getting IL a
short distance when the animal broke
from them and again attacked the boy
The elder PeshaT, hearing the commo-
ton, went into the yard and dragged
the dog into the house.

Police of Boston Are
Much Worried by Strikes

BOSTON. Mass. July 8-With three
strikes in progress and rioting attend
ant upon each the police of this city
today are in a quandary as to ht W to
cope with the situation II rioting starts
simultaneous, as threatens at any ruo-
ment
The principal strike is that on the
Boston Elevated System, and during the
past two weeks four attempts ct dyna-
miting cars filled with passengers have
been made, a score of cars have been
wrecked, numerous shots fred. one man
is dying from a bullet wound received
In a mob riot, and rumors are current
that dynamite enough has come into
the hands of the plotters to blow up
the whole elevated system.
The other strikes are those Of the
Marine Firemen's Union and the Kosher
meat strike. the latter having given the
police more petty trouble than the other
two combined.
Just after midnight in Mahoney
Square, North End, the police were
called upon to separate a crowd of fight
ing fremen and strike breakers, and
l., fore the fight was ever the police had
been forced to defend themselves from
the mob with their night sticks.
The Kosher meat strike has assumed
such serious proportions that 1t was an
nounced today a convention of Jewish
rabbis OF the United States and Canada
has been transferred from New York to
Boston and will open its sessions here
tonight in an attempt to end the affair
They are to meet representatives Of the
packing houses and also to plan a CO.
operative store.
A dozen stores have been wrecked in
the heart of the city during the past
two weeks by frenzied housewives, thir-
ty small butchers have been reduced ia
such poverty that they have applied to
the Associated Jewish Charities for aid
Shortly before midnight a half hundred
housewives following an Srrest in the
Chelsea district of one of their number
for rioting stormed the police station
nearly wrecked 1t, and compelled the
calling out of the reserves to save the
station windows.

TOMBS PRISONER,
HELD FOR LARCENY,
COMMITS SUICIDE

NEW YORK, July s.-Harry Lewis.
twenty-three years old. a prisoner In the
Tombs since Wednesday. committed sui
eide yesterday by hanging himself with
a rope improvised from his bed spread.
No note was left to explain the deed
Lewis had worked in the tailor shop
OF Max Bernstein, on the East Side,
and was charged with the larceny OF a
small amount Of goods from his employ
er.
AS Night Keeper John Flynn passed
Lewis cell he saw the prisoner sitting
on his cot weeping. An hour later Flynn
was making the rounds again and was
startled to find the limp body Of Lewis
swinging against the cell door. Deputy
Warden Hanley and the prison ply
sician were hastily summoned. and an
examination showed that the man had
been dead Tor about half an hour The
bed was near the door, and the sup
position is that Lewis, after making
the rope. produced stranguiation by
jumping OFF the edge OF his bed. Coro-
ner Hellenstein ordered the body taken
to the morgue.
Lewis was arraigned before Magistrate
Harris In the Essex Market court on
July 3, charged with petit larceny.
Judge Harris, in default OF $500 bail,
committed him to the Tombs for trial
In the court OF special sessions. Lewis
gave his address then as is Suffolk
street. but was not known there.

UNCERTAIN STATUS
IN STOCK MARKET
FOR MIDSUMMER
Crop News Engages an In

conditions.
tested preliminary struggle for the
nominations for President did not re-
suit in any pronounced stock market
action.
Crop news engaged an increased
share Of attention, In view Of the ap-
proach of the critical period for the
principal yields. The Governments es-
innate of cotton acreage was regarded
as especially important on account of
its postponemept to a month later than
ordinary. with supposable increase Of
reliability. The falling Off in planted
area from last years acreage was
greater than the speculative anticipa-
ton, and the condition average also
was lower than expected. The sharp
upturn in cotton prices witnessed to
these speculative disappointments.
In the larger bearing of the figures
on the question of the prosperity of the
cotton region encouraging deductions
were drawn. Only by comparison with
last years record yield was the prom
ised crop unfiattering. The prices at
which the crop Is rated give assurance
of the wholesome absorption which has
taken place of last years enormous
stocks and the demand in sight to take
care OF another large outturn.
Anxiety was relieved over the spring
wheat crop, and early harvesting re-
turns from the Southwest included ad.
vices Of eager demand for field hands
and for cars to move winter wheat.
Sentiment in the steel trade remained
good. June production of pig iron un-
derwent further expansion and the July
/ rate of production was in excess OF
the June / rate, and of the June daily
average. The heavy output, however,
Is believed to have overtaken the new
orders even with the enormous specih-
cations induced by the July advance
In prices.

Morning Slano Checked; Prices Slo4ub Recove,
STOCK PRICES DECLINE BEFORE A
WELL DIRECTED RAID OF
THE BEARS.

NEW YORK. July S.-The bears, In
furiated with dog-day madness or some
other sinister incentive, attacked the
market this morning, and the raid re.
suited In shattering the prices of Satur-
day into fragments and putting the
whole list Of stocks down to a lower
level. Selling was the order Of the day,
and in an intensely active market
stocks were bowled over regardless of
the immediate bid prices. At noon the
downward movement was In full swing.
with no signs of a check.
The slump was effected in the face of
favorable crop reports, better business,
an outlook for larger traffic on rail-
roads, and bull talk going on for days
in the financial quarter. The adverse
bank statement of Saturday was the
pin on which the selling movement was
hung, and yet the shrinkage in the re-
serve was neither large NOR alarming.
IT was due chiefly to the July disbursc-
ment OF dividends, and the money will
mostly be back in the banks before the
next weekly statement. Yet the tempo
rary weakness in the financial state

well.
That there was to be a slump of con-
siderable proportions was manifest at
the opening, when the railroad leaders
started from " to Y of point down:
Few of the rails showed even fractional
rallies, but went down before the SELL

the big traders. Reading lost Y of a

from the highest OF the morning. Louis
VILE was down about a point, and Union
Pacific an equal amount.
Industrials showed narrower range
of losses than the rails, but all devel-
oped weakness. Shelters sold down to

SCOUT STOPS TRAIN
Earl Randall is Hero Of an
Exciting Incident at Pra-
irie Avenue Crossing.
AUTOMOBILE IN DIRE PERIL


Earl Randall, son of Judge and Mrs.
g. =. Randall and member of the
Kenosha Company Of the Boy Scouts
of America, was the hero Of an excit-
ing incident at the corner Of Prairie
avenue and West Main street on Fri
day evening when his presence Of
mind prevented a collision between a
north bound passenger train and an
automobile The automobile which
has as passengers a woman and three
small children and man and boy,
had been running west along Prairie
avenue and just as the automobile was
directly in the center of the west
track the engine stopped running
The driver Of the car who managed
to conceal his identity made every eff
fort to get the car started. The WON
en- and children in the car leaped out
when the train doomed up in the dis
stance and efforts were made by by
ISLANDERS to push the car out Of the
way Of the onrushing train. Young
Randall saw the danger. He had on
pair of roller skates and he started
south along the track to flag the train.
The train was coming at a rate Of
fifty miles an hour, but the engi-
Ineer saw the frantic signal Of young
Randall and brought tie train to 4
stop within hundred feet Of the
crippled automobile. The Grain crew
aided in pushing the automobile from
the tracks and the train pulled into
Kenosha zen minutes late as a result
of the accident. Scout Randall is
entitled to lot Of credit for sizing
Iup the situation and taking the steps
which prevented the collision.

TO HEAD OFF BARNES
Politicians Say State Laws
Will Stop Judge Running
for Governor.
MUST SERVE TERM ON BENCH

Justice John Barnes Of the Wiscon-
sin supreme court may be prevented
from becoming candidate for COVER
NOR on the Democratic ticket by a
constitutional provision. Discovery
of a clause in the basic law of the
state applicable only to judges may
preclude his candidacy for eight years
more when the term for which he was
elected expires.
Judge Barnes term Of office will
end January /, 1920 having been elect
ed IN the fall Of 1909. The provision
lin the constitution which seems to
bar him, even i he resigned, from
then becoming legally qualified can
didate for governor, reads as follows:
"Article 7, sec. TO- Each Of the
| judges Of the supreme court shall re-
ceive salary payable quarterly. 7
:; they shall hold no Office Of
public trust except a judicial Office
during the term for which they are re-
spectiyeIy elected, and all votes for
either of them for any Office, except a
judicial Office, given by the legislature
| or the people,, shall be void.
! Attorneys who have examined the
constitution are Of the opinion that
Mr.. Barnes, having been elected for
term ending Jan. |, 1920, could not
accept an Office within that period Of
time, even though he might resign
from the supreme court to 40 SO.
They 60 even farther and claim that
the Legislature, under the same clause,
coald not legally elect him 10 any
Office. BY some lawyers If is claimed
that were he to receive a majority of

Ition, the man who stood second might
bring an action before the supreme
court to GUST him from office, and the
votes cast for the judge would not be
coonted.

The city is going to build a nos
pitaI for the care Of patients in the
advanced stages Of consumption and
for the care cf patients i'll with con-
tagious disease on the city poor farm
Final action ii the matter was taken
by the members Of the council Oh
Monday evening when BY the unani-
nous vote of the aldermen it was de-
cided to lay the protest Of people Of
the town of Somers on the table.
This action was taken after an in
vestigation of the law in the case had
been made by the city attorney and
members of the judiciary committee
and they declared that there was no
law which would give the people who
had signed the remonstrance any pow
en- to prevent the city from the erec-
ton Of the institution as planned.
The committee held that of the forty
seven people who had signed the re-
lmonstrance many resided a long dis
lance from the city farm, some re-
sided in the city of Kenosha and the
larger part were little or in no way
Interested in the proposed hospital
building. The committee held that the
waters in the stream running along
the poor farm would in no way be
contaminated by having such an in
stitution and it was shown that it
was the opinion of physicians in the
city that the institution could not in
any way be menace to the people
downing land in the neighborhood of
sthe city farm.
/ It was declared that the same oppo-
sition would appear against any site
that the city might select for the cree
ton Of such hospital and for this
reason no action was taken to rescind
the action taken by the former council.
The city engineer has been direct
ed to confer with the board Of health
and at its suggestions make plans for
the proposed hospital. The council
has made an appropriation Of $4,000
for the erection of building and it
| is probable that further appropria-
tions will be made if they are found
necessary. Now that the objection of
the people of Somers has been dispos-
ed of by the council it is expected
that the plans for the hospital will be
carried forward as speedily as posi-
bic. The need Of an ISOLATION hospital
has largely passed at this time and It
is expected that the hospital when
built will be used almost entirely for
the care Of tuberculosis patients.
