MRS. MoHR COMPLETES
 THIRD DAYS TESTIMONY
Covering Every Detail of Her Life
 With Dr.. Mohr.

Providence, R. l., Jan. 30.-Mrs. Elizabeth F. Mohr yesterday ended a long ordeal on the witness stand during which she made a personal defense of the charge that she had hired three negroes to murder her husband, Dr. c. Franklin Mohr, widely known as a physician in this city and Newport. The examination extended through the greater part of three court days. In this time she faced friendly and un- friendly attorneys who drew from her every detail of her life with Dr. Mohr. Many of these details were given re- luctantly, but she never wavered in her declaration that she had nothing to do with the murder, although she had objected strenuously to her hus- bands attention to other women.
 The testimony of Mrs. Mohr was re- garded by the defense as the most inn portant at the trial Cecil " Brown and Henry H. Spellman, two negroes who, the state charges, killed Dr. Mohr and wounded Miss Emily Burger, his companion, are yet to be heard
 A letter written by Dr. Mohr in 1909 in which he admitted the validity of their marriage was introduced over the protest of the prosecution. Mrs. Mohr was questioned closely regarding pr. Mohrs statement in the letter that q write this in defense of a good woman at present" At that time, she said, she was not living with her husband, but was at her mothers home in Mas sachusetts.

ADMINISTRATION SHIP
 BILL IS REVISED
So as to Get the Votes of Dissenting
 Democrats.

Washington, Jan. 30.-Details of the new administration ship bill to build a merchant marine and naval auxiliarieS, revised to command the votes of dis senting democrats, were made public tonight for the first time. It will be introduced tomorrow in the house by Chairman Alexander of the merchant marine committee, who will lead the fight for it's passage on the floor.
 Public hearings, at which President Wilson and others will be asked to tes- tify, will begin in a few days.
 The striking differences between the new bill and the one which failed in the senate last year are notifications of the government operation feature and broadening of the powers of the create. Government operation under the new bill would be entered upon only as a last resort, if private capital failed to respond to the enterprise. The shipping board would be empowered to regulate all interstate and foreign commerce in American waters as the interstate commerce commission now regulates interstate railroad traffic. Every effort has been made to draw the bill so as to encourage American capital to help upbuild the merchant marine and to protect it from unfair foreign competition, and government vessels never would operate on lines where an American service was fur niShing satisfactory service at fair rates. The out-and-out government ownership feature of the old bil aroused so much opposition that it was generally conceded to have been one of the primary causes of the failure o1 l the measure.
 An appropriation of $50, 100000 fol
 the purchase or lease of vessels to be
 obtained by the sale of Panama bonds and the appointment of the shipping board of five members are the first | objects of the new bill.
 | The secretary of the navy and the | secretary of commerce would be ex- officio members of the board and the ] other three members would be 'mer of large practical experience" in for | eign commerce.
