II is likely that the case will con-

night session was held last week and
il is probable that night sessions will
be ordered this week so that the trial
can be concluded by Christmas. The
prosecution rested several days ago.
but so far evidence for the defence has

NEW Bible FOR jews
soon READY FOR Use
Includes Many New Features
and Represents Is Years
Research Work
PROMINENT MEN
UNDERTAKE WORK

shortly after the opening Of the
new year. an important event will oc-
cur in religious circles when, for the
first time in the history of the Eng
Hsh language. an English translat ON
OF the Jewish Bible of antiquity will
be given to the world as the recog-
nized Bible of English-speaking Jews.
II will mark the elimination of a
quarter OF a century's labor and en-
deayor by some of the most promi-
nent Jewish scholars, historians and
leaders in America. The complete
translation Of the work from the Bible
OF the old Hebrews las been finished
and is now being printed and pre-
pared for distribution.
The new Bible IS marked by many
changes from the old. changes which
have long been looked upon as needed
bv jewish leaders. Prior TO this time
the Lesser Bible has generally been
used by English-speaking Jews. This
was a translation by Isaac Lesser
who lived in Philadelphia, and who
d'ed in 1868. This was practically a
translation of the King James version,
with many revisions, and it preceded

Many Changes IN Texts.
There win be many changes IN the
new Bible. while an important feature
will be that it will follow the order Of
he books as given by the Hebrew
Bible. An example OF this Is IN the
Book OF Daniel In the Hebrew Bible
it is 20 be found in the section known
As the Hagioerapha. According TO the
Jewish view. II is an apocalyptic book
while the Christian Church places
Daniel among the prophets. 1t is q
notable fact that here. as in other
instances. the results of Biblical study
in modern days show a turning tow
ard the standpoint OF Jew sh tradi-
ion. Modern scholars are now quite
generally agreed that the Book OF
Daniel is not the production OF a
prophet, but an apocalyptic writer
There are also many other radical
changes in the texts and their COM
oilation. The completion Of the work
mas entailed an enormous cost and
was assured when Jacob Schiff, OF
New York. contributed $4,000 i'm 1918

certainty than ever At this time
it would appear that the ReDubli-
cans will choose between Justice
Charles S. Hughes and Theodore
Roosevelt.
The leaders have given up hope
of obtaining any definite statement
from Justice Hughes, and many
are proceeding on the theory that
he intends to accept the nomination
if it comes to him as unanimous
call of his party.
I If he declines at the last moment,
and a great many politicians
believe he will. there will no doubt
be one of the widest scrambles ever
seen in a national convention.
Politicians with sporting pr0cliVi-
ties are already offering bets that
