Washington, May 6.-An enemy will
attack the North Atlantic coast Of the
United States somewhere between the
extreme northeastern limit of American
territory at Eastport, Me-, and Cape
Hatteras. This is the war game plan
which has been set for the Blue navy
of Admiral Fletcher, which as soon as
the great naval review is ended at New
York, May IS, will prepare itself to
beat back the attacking force and save
the eastern cities of the nation from
bombardment and constructive annihi-
lation.
The Red navy, Rear Admiral Beatty's
command, has orders to assemble itself
somewhere out in the middle of the
Atlantic. Each of the ships Of the Red
navy will have the theoretical war
game value of real unit Of fighting
strength.
The Blue feet, commanded by Adj
miral Fletcher, will be differently con-
stituted In it every dreadnought, bat
tleship and destroyer will represent its
actual fighting strength.
1t is possible that the Arlington wire
less station and the Bureau of Naval
Intelligence in the Navy Department
may be added to Admiral Fletcher's
control so that actual war conditions
may be more nearly reproduced.

true that he had set IRE TO a sleeping
man in South Carolina; whether he
had been arrested for carrying re-
volver, and whether he had shot a
woman ten years ago.
Toomer denied it all.
"NIrs. Carman Did It."
On redirect examination the District
Attorney asked Toomer about the Hicks
incident. The negro said that on De-
cember 3, 1911, Hicks, whose real name
is Archer Owen, came down to Charles
ton and called on Celia at Toomers
home Hicks, he said, told Celia she
would get $500 from Mrs. Carman If
she changed her story to an exculpa-
ton of Mrs. Carman.
clicks said" Toomer testified,
everybody knows Mrs. Carman did it;
we all know Mrs. Carman did it. Smith
and your cousins know she did it, but
they are trying to make a fool out OF
you. You won't have to go back W tn
them to testify at another trial. They
can't make you go back. All you have
to do is to change your statement and
say you make a mistake
1.-THE next day Hicks called again and
said: You can make money by chang
ing your statement. You won't have to

and mako O statement that you were
mistaken in saying that Mrs. Carman
confessed the murder TO YOU

Prosecution Rests Case.

With that-it was then 2 p. m.-the
District Attorney announced that his
case was in. Mr.. Levy, in opening, re-
ferred to the Hicks matter, and said
he did not know whether Hicks had
made the offer or not, and that he was
interested in trying TO get at the truth
of it; that he would ask Hicks about
it, and possibly put him on the stand.
Mrs Powell, Mrs. Carman's sister,
was one of the first witnesses for the
defence. She reviewed, on direct ex-
animation, the events Of June 80.
Elizabeth Carman, the ten-year-old
daughter, gave an alibi for her mother.
The District Attorney did not cross
examine the child. Mrs. Platt Conklin,
Mrs. Carman's mother, denied the truth
of Celia's statement that she (Mrs.
Conkln) had ordered Celia out Of the
office after the murder.
The contention that a man killed
Mrs. Bailey brought Mrs. Harriet K.
Wallace, who lives near the Carman's,
20 the stand. She testified that she saw
a man standing in the shadow of tree
near the Carman home at $40 o'clock
