UTTAUER TO THE FRONT Tells House Neither Hill Nor Harrl mun Will Profit Unless He Builds Faster Shlpa Goul den Scents Graft. WASHINGTON. Fob. 26. General debate on the ship subsidy bill con tinued throughout the day In the House. The rule limiting the general debate to five hours was by unanimous consent amended so that general de bate shall run through tomorrow, with a night session from 8 o'clock until 11 o'clock, .when the debate will terminate. Mr. Grosvenor was the principal champion of the bill. The conference reports on the forti fications and the omnibus revenue cut ter bills were adopted. The conference reports on the Army and river and harbor appropriation bills were pre sented. Conferees were appointed on the postofflce appropriation bill after an Ineffectual effort had been made to recede and concur In certain Senate .amendments relating to the pay of rural letter-carriers and railway em ployes. Two veto messages of House bills were received from the President, one of them negativing the Kiowa pasture townslte bill and the other a bill for the relief of a civilian who served In the Civil War. Grosvenor the Chief Champion. Grosvenor of Ohio opened the dis cussion on ship subsidy with a brief statement as to the merits of the House substitute for the Senate bill. In answer to a charge made yesterday by Hinshaw of Nebraska, that not a single vessel had been added to our merchant marine since the passage of the mail subvention act In 1891 and that the vessels getting a bonus from this country carry merchandise to no greater extent, Grosvenor Insisted that Hinshaw was wholly misinformed. He declared that since the passage of the mall subvention act the International Mercantile Marine Company had built 10 vessels, many of them with a speed of 20 knots. Llttauer of New York argued in fa vor of the bill bearing his name. He said J. J. Hill had not a ship that would come in under the bill, as this bill provides for 16-knot ships and the Hill ships have a speed capacity of 14 knots. Ho proceeded: The Japanese are subsidizing their lines heavily and It is an absolute necessity that we do what we can to keep our trade with the Orhnt on our side of the ledger. There is no experiment of any kind connected with this bill. . Of the seven projects of this bill, four apply to the countries south of us In the American continent with whom we" have a vital political and commercial Interest and three to the Orient. The Mon roe doctrine impels us. In the furtherance f its highest purposes, to cultivate rela tions of political and commercial Intimacy with the governments of Central and South 'America. May Cause Harriinan to Build. If the Pacific Mall, Harriman's lines, should accept the subsidy, Llttauer said, it would mean the building of at least one and probably two 16-knot ships together with regular communi cation between San Francisco and the Philippines. Goulden (New York). In opposition to the bill, said the American Federa tion of Labor was against the meas ure, as was the National Grange. He sald back in the Forty-fourth Congress there had been charges of the use of a large amount of money for lobbying purposes. "Oh, that's a last year's bird's nest," interrupted Kahn (California). Mr. Goulden, however, declared that during the years he. had been In Con gress he had recognized the presence of a powerful lobby for ship subsidy. At the Theaters What the Press Agents Say.

Miss Nesbit, vhat became of it. and when she next went to his office, but ob jections to all of them were sustained. Mr. Hummel was thereupon excused temporarily and Abraham Snydecker, who was a clerk in Hummel's office, next was called. He said he knew Evelyn Nesbit. "Did you on October 27, 1903, see her sign a paper?" Mr. Delmas objected to the question, the court ruled with him and Mr. Snydecker was excused. Mrs. Thaw's Diary at School. Mr. Delmas having successfully blocked for the time being all testimony regard ing the affidavit, Mr. Jerome asked that Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw be recalled. When she had taken the stand, Mr. Je rome handed her a paper and asked If it was in her handwriting. Mrs. Thaw spent some time in an examination of the paper, smiling occasionally as she read. It soon developed the paper was a diary. While Mrs. Thaw was reading, a packet of letters, received from Pittsburg, was turned over to the clerk. Mrs. Thaw said the papers she had ex amined were all In her handwriting. Nearly 40 minutes were here occupied by Mr. Delmas in reading the paper. He offered no objecWon and Mrs. Thaw said the diary was kept while in Pompton, N. J., In 1902. Mr. Jerome read a few ex tracts from the diary. One was' as fol lows: "Mrs. Dcmille said to come right in. and I jumped with the agility of a sou brette and began to get shy." Another read: "She has a son, but I must say he is a pie-face mutt." "My room here is neither large nor small. There is a white, . virtuous bed. I took a nap, and the last thing I re membered was I wondered how far I am from Rector's. Rector's is really not a proier place for an innocent young per son, but I always had a weakness for it." Confidences lo Her Diary. The District Attorney turned to another page and read: "1 hereby swear never to -read another. But the one nice thing about Janice Mere dith is that she is really not an angel one of those persons too good for this world. "When one comes to think it over, it is good to have lived. A girl who has al ways been good and never had anv scan dal about her is fortunate in more ways than one. Upon the other hand, not one of them will ever be anything. Bv anv thing, I mean just that. Thev will ner- haps be good wives and mothers, but whether It is ambition or foolish, I want to be a good actress first. "Of course, I can't live here all the lime. And I can t forget all the old neo pie. They do not know what they are doing here, but give them a chance to get away and see what they would do. If I stay here long, I'll get like the rest. I am very susceptible and I'll soon bo a . Mr. Jerome said that hem there appeared three exclamation points anu a pen sKetcn or a nun. This ended the diary reading and Mr. Jerome turned to the witness. Sight of White Excited Thaw. "From the time you first became Intl. mate with "Thaw until the shooting of v ane. aia you ever see anything in his condition that was irrational?" asked Mr. Jerome. "Yes." Mrs. Thaw detailed several instances-. She said that one night while on Broad way in a cab they saw White. Thaw be came excited. He cried and sobbed and bit his nails and talked rapidly. "Did you ever see a man in an epilep tic fit?" , "I've seen cats." There was considerable laughter "Well, did Thaw act like that?" Prompted by Mr. Jerome, shs said his body trembled, he clasped and unclasped his hands, and his eyes rolled. The next time they saw White was when he was In a box opposite them In a theater. "At this tfme, did ha carry a pistol?" asked the District Attorney. "Yes, he always carried one after Christmas, 1903." "Why?" "He told me that the Monk East man gang was following him." "Did you know whom he employed to protect him?" "No." "Did he tell you who had set the gang after him?" "Stanford White." Other Persecutors Besides White. At that time, as early as 1903, she had thought Thaw was crazy upon the subject of Stanford White. He said stories were being circulated about him by White, and that he had things about us put In the papers. "Were there others besides White connected with this persecution?" "Yes." The names were whispered in the District's Attorney's ear. This man ner of Thaw, she said, kept up from 1903 to the time of the killing. Mr. Jerome's next question proved the last. It was: "Did Thaw recollect having seen White after these outbursts?" "Yes." ' "That is all. except that I may at some future time ask the witness to explain phrases In Thaw's letter which we have Just received." At 12:40 the luncheon recess was or dered. After recess. Mrs. Thaw was again called to the stand by Mr. Delmas for redirect examination. Mr. Delmas requested that certain photographs of Mrs. Thaw which had been introduced in evidence, be sent for. Mother Signed Receipts Mrs. Thaw was shown 1 receipts and asked if they were not in the handwrit ing of her mother. "Yes, sir." The receipts were for various amounts received from the Mercantile Trust Com pany, where White had deposited a sum of money for Evelyn and her mother. The receipts were signed, "Evelyn Flor ence Nesbit," the mother and daughter having the same names. Mr. Delmas handed her several photo graphs and asked by whom they were posed. Mrs. Thaw said the photographer at the East Twenty-second-street studio posed her for most of the pictures. Mr. Delmas showed Mrs. Thaw a let ter, and asked if a name in it was not that of a prominent New York society woman. Mr. Jerome objected, but after a short argument said: "We are prepared to admit that she is a prominent New York woman." "One most prominent?" asked Mr. Del mas. "Decidedly yes." "And she holds a position in the best society in New York?" "Weil, she Is in the '400.' " said Mr. Je rome dryly. Mr. Delmas then went into Evelyn Nesbit's first visit to White, when she went with Edna Goodrich, and said that White kissed and caressed Miss Good rich. She was not permitted , to say If she had formed any idea of the relations between White and Miss Goodrich. Mr. Delmas asked: , You said your brother went to school In 1002. Who arranged for that; Mamma and Stanford White. "Who paid for the schooling? Stanford White. Did you draw any money for yourself out of the letter of credit which White gave you when you went to Europe in 1903? I did not. Did you draw any for your mother? Yes, In Boulogne. Mamma saw something In a shop window. She knew I had the money and I let her have what she wanted. When Thaw heard of this he raised a fuss and said I should not have accepted the letter of credit money. After you had refused to continue your Improper relations with White, did he have a talk with you, urglnr you to resume these relations? Mr. Jerome objected and was sustained. Mrs. Thaw said that Mr. Garland told her mother that if they had anything to do with White, he (Garland) would have nothing to do with them. She said that her friendship with Mr. Garland ceased when she met White. She said she consulted the stage man ager as to whether she ought to return a $50 bill which Thaw sent to her In a bunch of flowers. The conduct of George Iederer toward her, she said, was always that of respect. There was nothing Im proper In the attentions of several young men whose names she had mentioned as paying attention to her. Mr. Jerome objected to a question about the second operation performed on Mrs. Thaw and said neither of the operations was of a criminal character. This ended the re-dlrect examination. On cross-examination Mrs. Thaw said she did not know whether Stanford White continued to pay for Howard Nesbit's schooling up to the time of his death. She said Stanford White's letter of credit was returned to him and that she gave it to Mrs. Nesbit. ONLY ONE SIDE HEARD FROM Mrs. Nesbit Denies Leaving Mrs. Thaw In Man's Care. PITTSBURG, Feb. 26. Charles J. Hol man issued the following statement today In behalf of his wife, mother of Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, concerning Mrs. Thaw's early training: "Evelyn was always sent to Sunday school as long as her mother had con trol of her. Her mother never left her daughter In care or any man at any time The public has heard but one side of the story. They have no right to express an opinion. We expect nothing else from ignorance, but educated people are sup posed to weigh the evidence of both sides before giving an opinion."

AIMED TO DESTROY TRAIN Terrorist Seen Placing Infernal Machine on Track Ahead of Train Guard Stops the Train Just in Time. ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 27. The Novoe Vremya this morning publishes a sensa tional account of the foiling of another plot on the life of Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaievitch, president of the Council of National Defense, and second cousin of Emperor Nicholas. The plot Is said to have -been discovered Bhortly before 3 o'clock last night, the time scheduled for the arrival here of the imperial train bringing the Grand Duke from Tsarskoe Selo. A guard patrolling the track near the station at the St. Petersburg end of the line caught a man dressed as a workman in the act of placing a wooden box in the middle of the track at a point 200 yards from the imperial pavilion. Aided by the darkness, the plotter fled and escaped to the cab of an accomplice who was wait ing nearby and drove away. The box on the track was found to con-' tain an infernal machine of enormous power. The mechanism was designed to cause an explosion from the vibration of the train as it passed. The guard communicated with the rail road officials, who signalled the train and succeeded in stopping it before it reached the machine. The entire neighborhood of the railroad station was surrounded by police. A statement that the orders for the Grand Duke's journey into St. Petersburg were countermanded at the last moment has, according to the Novoe Vremya, been confirmed by the police. WAXT TO KEEP ART TREASURES Genoese Demand Sale of Van Dykej to Morgan Be Stopped. GENOA, Feb. 26. It now appears that the statement published yesterday that the family of the Marquis Cattano had sold seven paintings by Van Dyke to J. P. Morgan for JSOO.OOO. Js erroneous in so far as the number of canvases is concerned. Mr. Morgan seemingly has acquired only four Van Dykes. Public opinion is demanding strongly that the persons responsible for these sales be prosecuted and that the sales be declared void for the reason that the present heads of the Cattano family are all under age. CIRZOX BECOMES RADICAL Advocates Reform of Lords by the Unionist Party. . LONDON, Feb. 27.

E; Long, sec retary and treasurer of the American Laundry, at 2S0 East Sixth afreet north, was entered before 10:30 o'clock last night and robbed of several valuable articles of Jewelry. When Mrs. Ixmg arrived home at 11 o'clock she found everything turned topsy turvey and articles of wearing apparel and bedding tossed here and there all over the house. Bureau drawers and cupboards were turned out and their contents strewn in all directions. Among the missing articles were a lady's hunting-case gold watch long gold chain with diamond-studded clasp, one Order of the Eastern Star pin with Initials S. E. L.. a Rathbone Sisters pin, a gold sword stickpin. A peculiar occurrence which may have connection with the robbery is that some mysterious person has been in the habit of calling up the Long residence almost every night during the last three weeks, and when the phone is answered the caller hangs up. One of these calls was traced to a naln.torlum on the west side of the river, but inquiry there elicited no information as to the' caller.
