the forerunner OF a general policy
under which the turbulent Latin re-
publics in The vicinity of the Pan

1t is believed the same suggestion
eventually win be made for similar
suzerainty over such small govern
ments as are susceptible to foreign
Influence, or subject to frequent rev
olutions. Its extension to Honduras,
IL is believed, would be Inevitable, as
that republic is in the same situation

natural and reasonable, it is believed,
than that Costa RIGA Should be given
a treaty similar to that proposed with
Nicaragua.
The utterances of Secretary Bryan
to the Foreign Relations Committee
are construed as being an additional
notice TO the nations that the Monroe
Doctrine will be upheld at all times.
The insistence on the ratification of
the treaty with Nicaragua in its
bfoadened form is looked on in many
quarters as a service of notice to Eur
ope and Jaian that this country, no

does not intend to relinquish the Mon

exert all of its powers to guard every
American interest having relation to
the Panama Canal, as well as to guard

st. Paul, Mimi. April AIRS Lillian
G. Olson wife of Prof. Oscar Olson, of
the University of Minnesota Agricul-
tural College, late today, in the Dis
trict Court, braveiy started treading
the gamut of shame and modification
which she will endure in an effort to
save her husband from prison for STAY
ing Clyde Darling, driver Of a laundry
wagon and an admirer of the woman.
She put forth a heroic effort to answer
the interrogstons, of her husband 8
attorney, but her voice was low and
quivering. Her mouth twitched at
each answer, and tears coursed her
face.
Although on the sand only COM
paratively short time, her opening tes-
timony presaged a resolve to sacrifice
her good name for the mans sake.
Judge Orr informed her that she need
not answer any questions which would
tend to involve her in the commission
of the crime. When asked If she would
testify, knowing this, she said, firmly:
Il will tell all" She said she had in
formed her husband or her relations
with Darling, whom she first met In
December, 1911.
AS she told her story. the woman
verged almost on nervous collapse. Mr..
Olson stared straight ahead and with
an indifference that seemed to say THAI
the story was old to him. She and her
husband had been married SIX years,
she said.

Here she cried bitterly, and scarcely
could finish her brief testimony.
The State rested its cross-examination

further detailed the confession OF shame
which he said his wife made to him.
The reason he has remained loyal TO
her in spite of her self-admitted unfalth-
fitness came out for the first time IN
this statement:
"She told me this: Darling has super
human influence over me. He takes me
in his arms ard holds me tight. lie
looks into my eyes and hypnotlzes me
and I cannot resist him.
This came out in the cross-eXaminatlon
of County Attorney O'Brien. In spite OF
the questions which Mr.. o. Brien hred al

in direct examination yesterday was not
