DENTIST WAITE INSISTS HE IS
GUILTY OF MURDER
New York, May y. - Hampering
his lawyer at every turn, showing the
greatest anxiety to be found guilty
and speedily eIectrOcuted, DR.. Ar
thur Warren Waite, dentist accused of
numbering his father-in-law, John E.
Pack, by poison, went to trial today.
His attitude has amazed experts in
CTiminOlOgy. Yesterday he was in
as good spirits as though he had just
come into money.
Instead Of cooperating with his
lawyer, Walter r. Deuel., Waite has
hampered and opposed him at every
turn. Deuel. has painted Waite's case
as white as possible, denying and pal
iating and eXcusing. Waite has
blackened it heavily, confessing and
even exaggerating. Deul pleads that
Waite is crazy. WaitedeclaTes he is
sane now and was sane when he poi
sOned his father-in-law and mother
in-law. DeuIe says Waite doesn't
know what he is talking about. Waite
asserts that he knows better than any
man-that his main idea is to get out
of the world as quickly as possible so
as to win complete expiration
Fortified by more than 100 wit
nesses or dispositions, evidence gath
cred in Grand Rapids and in this city
and by determinations of aIenists
that Waite is entirely sane, Dist
Atty Swan will ask that full penalty
be melted out.
The defense, contrary to Waite's
own wishes, apparently will be com
pulsive" insanity, the mental twist
which cOmpels one to commit crime
while maintaining an appearance of
sanity before the world.

A LET UP
IN PROSPERITY
Col. Buckner of du Pont Firm
Says 1t Has Been Due
to War.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-"The non-re-
newal of munition contracts by the
Allies in the United States does not
necessarily mean that the war will end
in 1916" says Colonel E c. Buckner,
yice-president OF the du Pont Powder
Company.
Neither does it mean that the war
won't end until then" he continued.
what it does mean is that the Allies,
and in particularly England, have made
arrangements for the manufacture OF
sufficient shells and ammunition them
selves"
The Colonel, who with his wife, is
spending a few days at the Waldorf
prior to going to Maine for vacation,
said that England wisely did not want
to continue a situation where 1t was
dependent on foreign nations for the
supply OF ammunition.
There is no doubt that the was has
brought a tremendous prosperity TO
the United States. Travel from east
to west and you won't find an idle man.
Just before the war there was a de-
plorabIe stagnation in business. In
my own works our normal number Of
employees Is between $4,000 and 10000.
Yet before the outbreak of the war the
depression was so great that this num-
Der was reduced to under 5000. After
the outbreak Of the war we didn't be-
gin to manufacture powder for the AL
lies until October. 1914, and then we
hired every man who presented himself
until the month before last we were
employing $4,000
Some idea Of the prosperity which
followed may be gagged by the fact
that in far less than two years we
have paid $40,OOOOOO in wages. Indl-
rcctly, by ordering of new machinery
and our orders to other manufacturers,
we have caused payment in wages Of
another half Of that amount. What
has happened in our one concern has
happened generally"
Asked il the end of the war would
not cause relapse to the ante-belIum
stagnation, the Colonel replied he did
not think so.
"Our country" he said, can get
along with half the prosperity it has
enjoyed during the last twenty-three
months. The ruined countries OF Eu-
rope must be rebuilt and they must
come to us for their raw material"
