 The Washington club has released Pitcher Adrian Lynch to Atlanta of the Southern Association. He is a right -hander secured by Manager Griffith from a club in the Central

Especial Dispatch to The Tr1bune)

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 22.-The de.
fence of Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, on
trial before a Federal court jury on
charges of violating the Espionage Act
was contradicted late to-day by the
testimony of government witness
Miss Winifred Houghney. Mrs. Stokes
admitted she once repudiated America
but that President Wilson caused her
to change her views.
Mrs. Stokes, indicted on letter she
sent to "The Kansas City Star" denying
an interview from her, printed pre-
viously, had quoted her correctly, had
sworn she was so busy and excited pre-
did not take time to read the dictated
letter or correct it before mailing it.
Miss Houghney, a public stenogra-
pher at the Hotel Baltimore, who took
the letter from Mrs. Stokes, testified
late to-day Mrs. Stokes was not in a
hurry when she dictated the letter;
that Mrs. Stokes read t.1e typewriter
Correction" with great care and de-
liberation.
Mrs. Stokes Contradicted
"Mr. Stokes did not appear the least
bit excited or hurried" Miss Houghney
related. There was smaller woman
standing near Mrs. Stokes at the time
l overheard a remark, they were SO
close to my desk: Rose, Pm surprised
that you're for the government
mean for the war;"
Rose, dear, | met soldier the other
day and we started talking about the
war, when he quit talking Mrs.
Stokes interrupted her friend with
these words, as near as l can remem-
ber: That's just.i it. The soldiers are
afraid to talk. They're being pushed
into this war; Mrs. Stokes, who had
the letter l had written, soon left
with her friend"
did you ever say to James Purcell
chief deputy United States marshal, a
witness who testified the other day
that the people were war crazy?" At
torney Stedman asked Mrs. Stokes.
The witness answered calmly: 81 told
him after | was arrested that the peo-
pie just now are SO war mad that they
do not consider ell the elements in
fluencing the war. If they knew of the
wealth that was being extracted from
them by the profteers and if they knew
Of the elements making for other than
democratic peace the people would
not be so enthusiastic"
Did you in your letter to The Star
intend to create disloyalty?"
"By no MEANS" she answered readily.
did you intend to obstruct recruit
ing and enlistment in the military
forces of the United States?"
"No."
"Was the statement you made in
