TESTIMONY IN KANE
CASE IS INDICATED
Mother of Drowned Woman
Tells Coroner Daughter
ForesaW Disaster.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HAMPTON, Va, September 22.--The
testimony to be offered for and against
Prof Elisha Kent Kane was definitely
indicated today as preparations were
made for his preliminary hearing to-
morrow on charge Of numbering his
wife.
Coroner George K. Vanderslice's GER
| titled report, which was filed yesterday,
gave for the first time definite informa-
| ton of evidence the parents of Mrs
Jenny Graham Kane offered to sup
port the theory that the University of
Tennessee professor drowned his wife
after generalization.
The writer of the mysterious letter
signed Betty" was identified yesterday
| by her mother as Mrs. Elizabeth H
Dahl of New York. The coroner said
the letters were an important factor in
the return of a murder verdict.
Says Attachment Ended.
Mrs. Phoebe Harris, 20, the mother,
said at her home in Philadelphia that
her daughter had written the letters, but
| that the wrong impression had been
given by quotations from them. She
| told of an alleged attachment between
Mrs. Dahl and Prof. Kane, but said it
had ended, Her daughter believed in
| the innocence Of the accused man and
was prepared to stand by him in his
trial, although now engaged to another
man, the mother said.
Conflicting with this claim Of a
harmless friendship and innocent cor
respondence were the statements of Mr..
| and Mrs. w. c. Graham, made at the
coroner's inquest.
Graham testified his daughter had
told him she feared something might
| happen, but will die before this wom-
an shall have him." Mrs. Graham told
the husbands alleged attachment to a
| woman named Betty" with last name
something like "Dodd," and who wrote
lots Of letters that q married man
should not receive"
Asked Mother on Trip.
MANY times" Mrs. Graham testified,
"she wrote that she longed for him to
get rid of his wife and come to her. She
was a divorced woman and she lived
with him in camp before he went over
SEAS"
Mrs. Graham also told of Mrs. Kane's
effort to have her accompany them on
the morning of the tragedy. IT did not
know why she didn't want to go, but
them and didn't understand" her
statement said.
The coroner's report also contained
the statement of Prof Kane that his
wife was drowned accidentally In spite
Of his frantic efforts to save and then
to resuscitate her. 1t had, too, the tes-
timony of his father, DR.. Evan O'Neill
Kane, noted Pennsylvania surgeon, who
told Of treating Mrs. Kane for q heart
ailment, and suggested that heart at
tack might have led to her death.
Tomorrow morning Prof. Kane, who
now is at liberty under SIS, 900 bonds, is
to appear before county justice. His
attorneys have indicated that they will
not waive the hearing, but will fight
through every step Of the trial.
WILL STAND BY KANE.

Mother Of Letter Writer Says Writings
Will Be Interpreted.

PHILADELPHIA, September % up.
Mrs. Phoebe Harris, 20, visiting in a
Mount Holly, N. j., home, said yeSter-
day that the writer of the "E. II. d.
letters in connection with the Kane
drowning case at Hampton, Va, was her
daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Harris Dahl
Mrs. Harris teld nswspapermen that
Mrs. Dahl, divorcee Of about 40, would
stand by" Kane and that contents of
the letters would be interpreted at the
trial.
DIR. Kane, Mrs Harris said, was en-
gagged to Mrs. Dahl long before" the
came his wife. Mrs. Dahl was a stew
ardess on the liner American when it
docked September 2, hef mother said.
MY daughter is not still in love with
DR.. Kane" Mrs. Harris said. "She
thinks he is a very fine man and is
broken up over this thing. She has said
to me time and again she knows he did
not drown his wife"
The engagement was broken, Mrs
Harris said, because DR.. Kane was sc
changeable.''
my daughter wrote to him frequently
because she liked to get his witty let
tiers. Her letters to him have been mis-
quoted. The passage concerning get
ting rid of anybody has been given out
in little bits and not in its entirety. II
the entire context of the letter were
known, it would be easy to see that she
had no reference TO the dead Mrs. Kane
Furthermore, my daughter has been

the lady's hair frustrated around it,
and finally that yellow gardening"
OUTFIT injects such spirit into the
whole that when she is present, 1t is
necessary to feel that the comedy
is probably better than 1t Is.
Time will no doubt snip out the
weeds and plant here and there
more substantial fare. One begins
to yawn as the first act goes on ana
on, one settles down to another de-
preston somewhere in the middle OF
the second act, just before Miss Ellis
begins to tell her clustering lover
that he is a genius of most unusual
proportions and when one Is pegln-
ming to think Its time for some 'ac-
ton" along comes member OF the
gypsy band and rolls around the
floor with the houses secretary

SEDAN LOST IN SANDY
WASH LAST WEEK

Stories are often told of
tourists who are unfamiliar
with Arizona's "dry wash
es" venturing into apparent
ly shallow streams to meet
with disaster, often losing
their cars and sometimes
their lives.
Wayne Skousen, field
man at the O. S. Stapley
company, tells Of an incid-
ent he witnessed on a trip to
Tucson Saturday.
A long line of cars was
waiting for water to recede
at a wash on the main road
when the driver of a large
sedan became impatient and
drove into it. The force of
the water washed his car off
the cement apron into the
stream bed, the passengers
narrowly escaping. There
was a sum of approximately
5000 remaining in the car
as the occupants left in such
haste. When the water re-
ceded, about four inches
were visible above the sand.
Skousen states it would
probably cost as much to
salvage the car as it was
worth.
This is just one of many
such incidents which hap
pened during the recent
floods throughout the state.

BANKERS ON ADVERTISING

The following was taken
from the American Banking
Magazine and is sound ad-
vice.
"No business man in a
town should allow a news
paper published in his town
to go without his name and
business being mentioned
somewhere In its columns.
This does not mean you
should have a whole, half or
even a quarter page ad in
each issue of the paper, but
your name and address
should be mentioned, if you
do not use more than two
line space. A stranger pick
ing up a newspaper should
be able to tell what business
is represented in a town by
looking at a paper. This
is the best possible adver-
tiser. The man who does
not advertise his business
does an injustice to himself
and the town. The man
who insists on sharing the
business that comes to town.
but refuses to advertise his
own is not a valuable addi-
ton to any town. The life
Of a town depends on tn e

al advertising b u i n e S S
