Also Identifies Letter in Which Governor Charles Whitman Said Time to Be Rid of Corrupt Party Control
NOT CONFIN ED
 TO ONE PARTY
Announcement is NJ 3 q e That Whitman Will Be a Witness in Rebuttal " Loeb Tells of Talks With Barnes
ASSOCIATED PRESS DrspATcHl

SYRACUSE, April 29-COlonel Theodore Roosevelt was excused from the witness stand in the $50 GOO suit for alleged libel William Barnes brought against him, after he had told his own story of how he ended the panic of 1907 and had identified a letter in which Charles Whitman, now governor, then district attorney of New York, wrote that he thought the time ripe to rid the state of the kind of party control which was mainly responsible for corrupt condi- tions. In the letter the governor de clared that the men and policies re- sponsible for such corruption were not confined to one party, but the colonel said he believed that Barnes was referred to.
 William Wins, chief counsel for Barnes. said late tonight that he had telegraphed Governor Whitman asking him to appear as a witness in the rebuttaI and testify regarding the authenticity of the letter read and other matters. Counsel for Colonel Roosevelt said they had submitted the letter to persons who are familiar with the governors signature. who declared it was his.
 William Loeb, Jr, once the coloneTs private secretary in the White House and later collector of the port of New York. was also a witness. He swore that Barnes told him he held an a agreement with Charles Murphy of Tammany Hall not to interfere in the selection of the United States sena- tor. That was in 1911. prior to the time that James O'Gorman was chosen. It was while Loeb was on the stand that counsel for the colonel made a futile attempt to get before the jury testimony regarding vice and gambling in Albany.
 Of the panic of 1907 the colonel told how Henry Prick and former Judge F. H. Gary, representing the United States Steel corporation came to him in the White House and told him that if the J. P. Morgan inter ests could take over the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company before the exchange opened that morning, the stock, much of which was held as collateral. would immediately become enhanced in value and the business Of the country, which was trembling on q hair" would be suspended The colonel told how he took action in the matter and then notified the news papers what had been done.
 And he said. with soms5 display of pride. the panic stopped
 During the day the colonel swore he had not heard the names of many of the men who are said to have contributed large sums to his cam paign fund of 1904 until they were read in court during cross -eXamina- tion by William Iyins. He also made explanatory statements about his ap- pointment of judges and relations with former United States Senator Thomas Platt. about speeches he had

 PRODUCED HERE
Large Audience Laughs and Laughs at Funny Farce Given by Country Club Performance to Be Re peutcd Tonight

For a Phoenix audience to laugh and to laugh spontaneously and enthusi- astically for two and a half hours is phenomena but that is exactly what it did at the Elks theater last evening at the first performance of Seven Days. the Country Club play produced under the direction of Maitland Davies.
 The farce comedy by Mary Roberts Rinehart and Avery Hopgood was her aided as the funniest play ever written and for once press notices were right It is brimful of fun. It is al sparkling comedy that would delight the most critical audience if it was privileged to see il presented by the excellent cast that pleased the crowded house on the first night. From the rise of the cur tain until ita fall the frequent laughter and applause spoke the appreciation of the audience of the best theatrical at traction Of the year. There were half a dozen curtain calls at the close of every act and after theater suppers were delayed until Director Davies bowed his thanks long after the fall of the last curtain.
 The play was unusually well staged. Every set was built especially for Seven Days" and the Elks stage was never set to better advantage nor with more artistic care. Especially was this true in the last act the roof garden was wonderfully well drawn and the preceding scenes in the basement and living room of a New York residence were accurate and charming
 IL was impossible to teIt by the au- dience who was the most popular mem ber of the capable cast
 Little Miss Ruth Griffen, who was dainty, sweet and charming in Secret Service" last season was more than that in last nights play. She was ir- resistible. Her perfect interpretation combined with her vivid personality made her a delightful Kit McNair. Ii was a role exactly suited to her own

Prosecution Closes in Trial of Los Angeles Police Chief and Defense Pro cceds Immedi a tely to Spring Some Surprises
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

LOS ANGELES, April p. To prove a!ibis for Charles Sebastian and Mrs. Liilie Pratt was the pur- pose of the first evidence introduced hy the defense in their trial charged with having contributed to the de- pendency of Edith Serkin. Mrs Pratts minor halt-sister. The prose cution closed with two witnesses whose statements tended to corrobo- rate the previous testimony mdicat- ing moral misconduct on the part of the defendants.
 Mrs. Sebastian, wife of the accused police official, was in court for the first time. Attorneys for the de- ense stated she will be one of the thirty witnesses on their side
 Five witnesses for the defense tes- tified that on two of three specific dates named by Edith Serkln as oc- casions when she was subjected to scenes and acts calculated to sub vert her morals. the whereabouts of Sebastian and Mrs. Pratt could be accounted for satisfactorily. On the evening of June 9, 1914 when Miss Serllin said she was in the com pany of the defendants in the apart ment next to police headquarters, Fred Stiggler, a baker said he had delivered tG MT. and Mrs. Pratt at thesr home a birthday cake he had baked. j. c. Rover testified he made automobile trip on that day to Ana helm with Sebastian.
 Sebastian was sick in bed the night of December 19, 1914. instead of be- ing with Mrs. Pratt and Miss Serkin. according to Vincent Morgan, sformer police commissioner.
 In his opening statement to the jury. Earl Rogers, Sebastian's chief counsel. declared he would prove that Sebastian was in the company of hls wife all of the evening on Christ mas Eve the third specific date.

The Turmoil Within the House Ceased, the Sky Cleared and Peace and Harmony Were Prevalent at the Close
DAY WAS SPOILED
 FOR REAL WORK
Trouble Originated from Senate Concurrent Memo rial No. 1 and There Was a General Opening of Old Sores

Just as the heavens in the middle Of the afternoon We're breaking loose after a morning that had given some promise of a pleasant day, the house of the legislature. which had opened with groHch which grew into active and violent animosity with the day. suddenly became peaceful and ended in a love feast
 The trouble which occupied prac- tiCally all the time of the house in two sessions grew out of senate con current memorial No. l. urging the governor to get the land commission busy selecting and selling the lands granted by the enabling act to the counties of Pima, Maricopa. YaVapai and Coconino. This memorial had been referred t0 the committee on petitions which it was thought would report it favorably. but it was eN- pected that opposition to it would come from the gentlemen who have taken the administration under the wings.
 IL was therefore rather surprising that Chairman Christy. whose wing has never been spread over the ad- ministration or any part of it, re- Torted the memorial back without recommendation. And then he pro- ceeded to speak against it in terms rather complimentary or rather in ec- culpation of the land commission.
 The senate. he said. had made an attack upon the wrong party The land commission was not at fault but the governor was. The governor had prevented the legislation under which the commission would have to act The blame. he said, must rest with the governor and he could not sec why the legislature should memorial ize tEe governor concerning a mat ter about which he must be fully informed.
 Mir Christy had thus gracefully conducted himself around to a fav- arite theme. the limitation which the governor had placed upon legislation in the extra session. Perhaps said he sarcastically "the governor E right By reason of our limited in teuectuality. il may be that one bill each session is enough for us to con slider.

Interest in the Dardanelles

LONDON. April 29-With the bat tie in Flanders seemingly at an end, except for the attacks the allies are making to recover the remainder of the ground lost last week, the inter est of the public has turned to the Dardanelles where the French and British forces have landed. and with the cooperation of the fleet are mak- ing attempts to force the straits and open the way to Constantinople. How far these operations have progressed only those on the spot and the high est authorities at home know
 The British landed at three points on the Gallipoli peninsula and have thrown a line across the outer point of the peninsula.
 Other British troops are threaten ing the Bulair line of forts. while the French are looking after the Turks on the Asiatic side of the straits The Turks report all landing parties repulsed. but British reports. which are very brief. content them selves with the statement that pro sress is being made and ignored en- tirely the Turkish claims of victories
 Along the western front in France there is much activity but no big
 
 are reports that the British have be- gun an offensive in the neighborhood of Armentieres. The Germans appar- entIy do not contemplate a movement in force on the western end of the line. as they reopened today the Bel gian- Dutch frontier, which is always closed when the Germans are on the move.
 Heavy fighting continues in the Carpathians for the UTzsok pass in the direction of Stry where the Aus trians are threatening the Russian communications. A report comes from Berlin that the Austrians have again invaded Bessarabia. but there is no confirmation of this in the Aus trian official statement tonight. The Russians. on their part. have again taken the offensive against the Turk ish invaders of Persia and have driven them from the border town of Kotur.
 Dispatches from neutral countries report a great concentration of Aus trian troops taking place on the Italian frontier, as a measure against the possibility of Italy joining the allies and that troops are being con eyed by sea to every coast town in Dalmatia and Istria.
