SUBPOENA THAW'S
WIFE TO TESTIFY
EVELYN NESBIT is WANTED ON
WITNESS STAND IN HUSBANDS
SANITY CASE.

New York, June 28-Subpoena serv-
ers sent by Deputy Attorney General
Frank A. Cook were at Chateaugay
Lake, near Malone, N Y, today. to
serve summons on Mrs. Evelyn Mes
bit Thaw to testify here in the jury
trial of the sanity of her husband,
Harry K. Thaw.
Agents of the attorney generals Of
fee, who yesterday watched Culhane
camp, where Mrs. Thaw has been stay
ing for several days, were unable to
determine whether she would accept
service of the subpoena. Conflicting
reports as to Mrs. Thaws willingness
or unwillingness to testify were receiv-
ed here, one of them stating that she
would not under any circumstances
be witness.
Prior to the taking of testimony to-
day, Justice Hendrick warned news
paper men that. punishment for con-
tempt OF court would be given any edi-
tor who published stories outlining
possible future evidence.
Thaw's counsel lost point today
when Justice Hendrick upheld the
states contention that the report OF
tie federal commission, headed by
General Streeter, on Thaw's sanity
should not be admitted in evidence II
was on this report that Thaw was ad.
mitted to bail in New Hampshire.

MOST Of WOUNDS
CAUSED BY SHELLS
SURGEON WHO HAS BEEN AT THE
FRONT IN WARSAW GIVES
FACTS ABOUT sUFFERlNGS.

Warsaw, June Correspondence
of The Associated Press)
eighths of the wounds in the Galician
fighting were caused by shells, half Of
which were fired from big caliber guns,
said Surgeon Major Lesghintzff, to an
interviewer on returning to Warsaw
from the front.
Bullets play no part now" he con-
tinued, "and the infantryman's rife is
toy. Infantry merely occupies the
trenches the cannon have won"
Most devastating of all are the new
Skoda shells of the Germanic allies
which are II inches in diameter and
weigh $500 pounds. The Skoda how
liter shoots at high angle and its
shell penetrates twenty feet into soft
earth before exploding two seconds
after striking. These howitzers do not
resemble the Krupp mortars of the
same caliber, to which they are said
to be superior in every way.
When a Skoda shell hits it means
death to everything within radius of
| $50 yards and even farther off. The
mere pressure of its gas rips open the
bomb proof shelters and catches those
who escape the metal fragments and
lflying debris This gas enters the
body cavities and tears flesh asunder,
sometimes stripping the men Of their
clothes.

Assassination a
Year Ago Caused
European Struggle

One year ago today, June %,
1914, Archduke Francis Ferdinand,
heir to the throne of Austria
Hungary, and the Archduchess
were assassinated at Sarajevo,
Bosnia. The murders were CON-
mitted by Garvio Prinzip as an
act of protest against Austria's
treatment of the Slavs.
Austria-Hungary accused Serbia
of shielding conspirators who had
plotted the crime, and on July 23
sent an ultimatum to Serbia de.
manding the arrest and punish
ment of these alleged conspira-
tors.
The ultimatum contained pro-
visions to which Serbia felt she
could not yield and maintain her
dignity as nation. She accepted
all Of Austria's terms except those
which she insisted would have de-
graded her.
Austria chose to interpret Ser
bias reply as unsatisfactory and
mobiliZed her army.
Serbia called her troops to the
colors and appealed to Russia for
help. The czar promised his aid
If war we're made on Serbia, and
began mobilization.
When he refused to rescind
mobilization orders, Germany de-
clared war on Russia.
France summed her forces,
which act Germany declared to be
Of hostile intent, and August 2
German troops were sent through
Luxemberg, toward France.
On August Great Britain de-
livered an ultimatum to Germany
demanding that the neutrality of
Belgium be respected. Germany
refused to give this pledge and
Great Britain declared herself at
war with the kaiser.
Japan Joined her ally, Great
Britain.
On May % Italy entered the
war.
Twelve nations are now at war.
Germany, aided by Austria and
Turkey, is fighting against France,
