Hand Writing Idcntifaed.

- The examination of Brown, was con-
lined to the identification Of specimens
of his Handwriting. Later the state ex-
poets to put on the witness stand a
handwriting expert to- prove that it
was Brown who wrote on the Pres
colt hotel register the name of James
Farrell, Wilmar, on the night Of the
crime.
No trace of any Farrell has been
found and the states theory is that
no such person exists but that the
name as put on the hotel register to
traitors of the crime against Marie
Wick.
Objection Overruled.
The handwriting specimens were in
troduced in evidence over the tobjec-
tions of the defense. Brown, who has
been in Jail since shortly after the
crime, seemed very nervous on the
stand.
Hagen Tells His Story.
Hagen's testimony dealt with the
actions of the hotel clerk who took
him to mis- room in the hotel early on
the morning of June and his own
actions in the hotel. He claimed that
he had not left the room from the
o clock a. m. until aroused by the Of
1icers the next morning. He also de-
clared no one was in the room with
him after the clerk left.
Doctors Testify.
The testimony of these two witness
es and the two doctors who examined
Marie Wick's body made up the
morning session Of the court today.
The medical testimony dealt with the
cause of Miss Wick's death and es-
tablished the fact that she had been
! ravished before being killed. This
y established the motive for the crime.

Hughes was Postponed at the .sugges-
ton OF Japan after an extended de-
bate on the provision to include In all
the published list of commitments to
various commercial agreements enter
ed into between Chinese authorities
and private individuals abroad The
Japanese suggested that it might be

that they desired to further communi-

al of the conference at their earliest
convenience all existing commitments
regarding China to which they are

Washington, Jan. 21.-The
American proposal to make pub
lie international commitments re-

much amended form today by the
Far Eastern committee of the

Among numerous changesmade
was one eliminating the proposal
objected to by Japan for publicity

ments themselves are not parties.
Adopted, however, the resolu-
ton does provide that agreements
between the Chinese government
itself and private individuals
abroad must be consummated
openly and their details made. -.

FINANCIAL NEWS
AND COMMENT
Stock Market Probably Dis
counted Democratic Vic
tory Before Election.
NO SLUMP AS EXPECTED
Instead Shares Remained Mod
erately Firm After Tues
days Results.
NO SLUMP AS EXPECTED

With the election day upsets through
out the country il was perhaps thought
surprising that the financial markets
failed 20 pay more attention 70 political
developments last week. One thing is
certain, Wall Street came to business on
Wednesday with feeling OF certainty
that the stock market at least would
take bad drop as a protest against the
Democratic landslide.
Nothing of the sort happened. On the
other hand. stocks after a moment OF
early weakness were strong the rest OF
the day and moderately nrn the re-
mainder of the week. 1t Is more likely
that in the drastic reaction which ran
for a fortnight and more prior 10 the
election, a great deal OF what the finan-
c community pleases 70 call unfavor-
able in the results OF the ballotins was
discounted.
Political ''Factors' Stressed.
The narrowing down OF the Republican
majority in Congress to point where
the so-cailed independent and progress
sive members are more or less represeri-
tative OF the basarice OF power has
served to revive interest in such things
as the soldiers bonus, the tariff and
other national questions In which all
Street has vital interest. So far there
has been nothing since tho election ex-
cept the whisptrs of professional specu-
lators to Indicate that the soldiers bonus
proposal is once more q menace AS FOR
the tariff. it is pretty generally agreed
that there is no likelihood OF a change
prior to the Presidential election In 1874
SO for the moment at least 1t Is bit
difficult 10 understand why any one
should have expected market deoacle
following the election.
Another factor about which much dis
cussion was heard last week and which,
while extremely delicate. has yet TO as
sumo the proportions Of an international
menace, was q revival OF the Turkish
affair IN the Near East. Stories OF
clashes with British soldiers were re-
ceived, OCt Wetc loo Nd9uc " AisN'o -"4-S

Tho extreme weakness in foreign cx-
changes during the last week wa: at
tributed to some extent TO the new con-
Germ felt regarding the Turkish situa-
ton Some OF 1t may have been that.
but IL must be remembered that the
mos. serious developments OF the last
week came after the continental rates
had touched their lowest points of the
year ana had again rallied Also IL
must be borne In mind that economic
developments within Franco ana Ger
many are in themselves sufficient TO
cause violent moves IN foreign exchange
rates.
