ADMITS THREAT TO
KILL In LETTERS
Stone Woman on Stand Says She Was
Driven Desperate BY Re-
fusal of Marriage.

NEW YORK, March Submitting
authorship of letters in which threats
were made to kill Ellis Guy Kinkead,
former corporation counsel of Cincin-
natl, for whose murder last summer
she is on trial, Miss Olivia M. P. Stone
today told supreme court jury that
her sole intent was to scare the law
yer into leading her to the altar for
a ceremonial marriage.
1t has been her contention that Kin
kead refused to go through the cere-
mony with her after their alleged
common law marriage almost four
years ago. From time to time. he
promised to, she said, but put off the
day and finally he abandoned her and
married another woman, Marie Louise
Gormley.
Didn't Mean Threats.
mo matter what extravagant Ian
guage you used, your only intention
was to make him right that wrong,
wasn't it?' she was asked by her law
yer.~
Eyes, I swear by all that is good
and holy that that is the TRUTH she
said, raising her right arm above her
head.
God knows it is true" she added,
but her answer was stricken out save
for the mere yes" All day the
trained nurse was on the stand, weak
and distressed to almost constant
tears. She admitted writing the let
tiers during cross examination, and
explained their purpose after her
counsel took up the questioning
kinkead's Influence.
Her lawyer brought out that she
went to several Cincinnati lawyers
with her troubles, that she took them
to the dean of the Cincinnati law
school where Kinkead was an instruc-
tor and that he subsequently lost his
position. Because of Kinkead's stand
Ing in the profession, she said, she got
little encouragement from the law
yers. This statement was eliminated
from the record.
Kinkead was forced to resign from
the law, school ION account of the
Gormley woman" she said, but this
too was ordered erased.
The trial will be resumed Monday.

FORESTRY EXPERT IS INVESTIGATING
POSSIBILITY OF EXPERIMENT STATION
Birds Got Seed.

Mr.. Wyman recited an instance
where the Great Southern Lumber
company of Bogalusa, La, the larg-
est sawmill in the south, If not in the
world, upon realizing that their tim
Der supply would soon be diminished
and the city Of 10000 allowed to
1000 acres of their cut-over lands.
This was before the experiment sta
ton was organized, and the mill COM
pany was not familiar as to just how
they would go about planting the seed.
The 1000 acres was sown broadcast,
but no trees were secured as birds and
rodents got all the seeds.
The next attempt was more success
full as the seeds were planted in rows,
similar to corn or any other agricul
turaI product. Eight hundred acres
were planted in this manner and from
500 to 600 seedlings per acre are the
result of a careful study of the cor
rect way to reforest cut-over lands.
These trees will be dug up and plant
ed on areas where natural reseeding
cannot take place.
Mr. Wyman announced that expert
ments were being made only with the
native trees, yellow and slash pine,
and in certain localities a few hard
woods.
Slash Pine Best.
The maritime pine of France from
which turpentine in that country is
derived was introduced into this coun-
try but it was unsuccessful. What
we know as slash pine which grows
in the wet regions is the best for tur-
pentining, while the long leaf yellow
pine of the dry country is considered
by many as the best for lumber. This
of course is a matter of opinion
among the different operators. so far
no actual tests have been made.
The Journal reporter asked Mr.. Wy
man what is considered the smallest
tree that should be cut for numbering
purposes, and he answered quickly
that no right thinking sawnill opera
tor would cut a tree which is less than
10 inches in diameter" The reporter
then asked him how long would it take
a tree planted from seed to grow to
that size. THAT is one of the pur-
poses of the research work that we
are doing" he answered. I'VE have
not progressed to the stage where we
can make estimates from actual ex-
periments, but it can be reasonably
expected that a Seeding would grow
to that size in from 80 to So years;
that, of course, would be determined
largely by the soil on which it was
planted"

wHITLOCK'S RETIREMENT.

In many respects the post of Am
bassador TO Belgium was the most
strenuous of all the foreign posts to
which this country sent It's repre-
sentatives during the war 1t was
literally on the firing line part of the
time and in No Mans Land most of
the time. Previous TO the entrance
of this country into the war, II was
a post demanding the most delicate
consideration, the exercise of gifts to
be looked for in trained diplomat
rather than in a, man to whom this
sort of service was new, and depend
ent for it's success upon stout heart
and clear head. Brand Whitlock had
both. We need not ask where his
sympathies were. they were with the
Belgians, of course. Whatever one
mayThave thought at that time of the
origin3of the war, and the relations to
IT, of the major nations of Europe, no
one questioned the crime of the
german inva sion of Belgian territory.
The Chancellor of Imperial Germany
himself admitted 1t on the floor of the
Reichstag and avowed openly that
Germany had made "a scrap of paper"
of the treaty granting Belgium neu-
traiity, though falsely pleading
necessity.
The greatness of Mr.. Whitiock's SER
vice consisted in his command of his
emotions; the control OF his passions,
/ for he had both 10 contend with as
/ the representative of a great neutral
country. Later his greatness reached
a higher level With our entrance into
! the war came his release from obli-
! cations that irritated him and began
a service notable for its devotion ano
intrepidity. Because he was one oi
the great American Ambassadors ir
llhe history of his country. he should
have been kept in the service and adj
vanced from time 10 time until th'
most distinguished of all posts hac

HIGHLY DUBIOUS DOCUMENTS.

Both the Japanese and the French
have officially characterized as gross
fabrication the documents put for
ward by representatives. of the Far
Eastern Republic at Washington pur-
porting TO reveal a conspiracy between
Paris and Toxic for the military oc-
cupation Of Siberia and monarchical
restoration in Russia. These are pretty
serious charges. and the very least one
would expect is a pretty definite state
ment OF how those documents came
into the hands OF the Chita Govern
ment. A photostat copy of the orig
iials would help. In view of the ex-
plicit official -denials by the Japanese
and the French. it is more than ever
incumbent upon the authors of the ex-
pose to produce something like proof.
Internal evidence strongly suggests
forgery. and of not very dexterous
kind. We are given the supposed text
of secret treaty in which occur
clauses like the following: In case of
the liberatiorf OF the Siberian terri
tory from the Bolsheviki, Japan re-
ceives complete domination in Siberia.

of the bar of New Castle county.
Judge Rodney comes from dis
tinguished line of legal ancestors, men
who were learned In the law and who
gained distinction by rendering valu-
able public service in judicial and
other stations. Heredity, therefore
should have n part in enabling hin
to Justly earn commendation for hi,

FAIR, MIDDLE GROUND.

We are convinced there is fair.
middle ground between labor and
capital.
This is the day when organizations
OF labor are nece ssary because Of the
complex character of our business
life, and because what men banded to-
gether cannot accomplish for them
selves is very likely to be accom-
plished individually.
But the war and its consequent in
flation of prices OF commodities and
prices of labor has brought about
giaring and fragrant instances of abuse
that call for corrections that must be
accomplished and adjustments that
must be made.
1t calls for kind of readJustment
that must be borne by the laborer as
well as his employer. 1t will be hard
for the highly paid worker 10 come
down to earth. but that is just what he
will have 10 do If business Is to re-
cover from its present slump.-Unior
Labor Advocate.

SUBMARINES MAY GO.

The compromise declaration in re-
spect Of submarines approved by rep
-resentatives of five Powers-United
States, Great Britain, France, Italy
and Japan-to the Conference for the
Limitation of Armaments, at Wash
ington, seeing far-reaching, and should
go a long ways towards the entire
elimination of the detested assassin
Of the seas-the submarine-from any
employment as an agency of naval
warfare. And such a consummation
would be of enormous benefit to the
world. and possibly a potent step in
the direction of an assuring World
Peace.
The agreement approved by rep
resentatives OF these five Powers is:
'To the end that the prohibition of the
use OF the sua rlnes as commerce.
dcstroyers shall be universally ac-
copted as part of the law Of nations
they now accept that prohibition az
