M HER DEFENSE
Mrs, Tingley Testifies in Point
Loma Libel Case.
SHE DENIES ALL CHARGES
Did. Not Starve Children or Endeavor
to Abolinli Marriasre Much Evi
dence Adverse to Her Shut Out
by It.ulIng;K of Court.
SAN DIEGO. Cal.. Jan. 2. Catherine A.
Tingley was placed upon the stand as her
own witness In rebutting the testimony of
the defendant In the trial of her action
for libel against the Los Angeles Times.
All of the principal charges made against
her and the Point Loma institution, of
which she Is the ofllcial head, were read to
her, and she denied them seriatim. She
made a cool, deliberate witness, and oc
cupied the stand most of the afternoon.
She had a ready explanation for such of
the charges and inferences as she did not
repudiate.. She stated with much empha
sis that she had not withheld food from
children, but, on the other hanH said it
was one of her theories of chlld-rearirfg
that the infants should be fed every half
hour. She flatly denied the testimony al
leging she had stated that life upon Point
Loma would evolve a state which would
make the marriage relation unnecessary.
Miss Irene Willis, of Hannibal. Mo.,
was recalled to the etand when the,
trial was resumed today. She was not
permitted to tell on direct examination
anything concerning the Illness of her
sister at Point Eoma.
. The deposition of Edward W. Parker, of
Little Rock, Ark., was offered by the de
fendant. Deponent related that he had
known Mre. Ting!ey, and that he had
gone to Newburyport, Mass., recently and
made Inquiries of about 20 persons as to
her character. Here the plaintiff object
ed to the entire remaining portions of the
deposition. Sustaining the plaintiff the
court excluded the, direct examination of
Parker.
Practically all of the cross-examination
portion was also excluded, and Emll A.
Neresheimer. chairman of Mrs. Tingley's
cabinet, was recalled by the defendant
and interrogated as to Mrs. Tingley's
various acts during the period that Imme
diately followed the publication of the In
terview alleged to be libelous. The de
fense argued the right to Introduce this
evidence as defensive matter to show that
the shock Mrs. Tingley claimed to have
sustained from the publication might have
been caused by other conflicts that were
pending.
Throe-quarters of an hour was con
sumed by the court In defining a ruling
which shut out all questions along the
line which the defendant had undertaken
to pursue. M. Nereshelmer was allowed
to answer that Mrs. Tingley Is now the
official head of the Universal Brotherhood
and a trustee of the Point Loma Home
stead Association, and also of the Thetf
sophical Publishing Association. She oc
cupies, he said, the same relations to these'
associations that she did In October. 1S01,
at the time the alleged libel was pub
lished. . IffAY CONTINUE THE WAR

Between DIjr Lcnsnen.
CINCINNATI, Jan. 2. It Is now proba-
ble that the peace conference of the Na
tional and American Baseball Leagues
will not be held here on January 7. Pres-
Ident Johnson, of the American League,
yesterday wired President Herrman. of
the Cincinnati club, that unless the Na
tional League committee was given full
power to act, all negotiations would be
broken off and no further action taken
toward a settlement of the baseball war.
MARSHALL IS DETA1XED.
At Work In San Francisco on the
Schedule Baseball Noten.
A private dispatch was received from J.
P. Marshall, president of the Portland
club of the Pacific Coast League, last
night, stating that he would not be able
to conclude his business In San Francisco
before tonight, and that he will probably
leave for home tomorrow morning. Mr.
Marshall did not state the nature of the
business that will detain him, but It is
presumed to be in relation to the arrange
ment of the schedule.
Outside of this dispatch, there was no
news in the Pacific Coast League circles,
except a sort of a general denial that
. Councilman Fred T. Merrill, who is now
In the East, is In any. way backing the
. Portland club of the Pacific Northwest
League. A member of the Portland Pa-
.. clflc Coast League said that the Merrill
backing had been reported, and, while he
could not report It as unauthorized, he
. could at least say that It was an "unheard-of
rumor."
Jay Andrews Is still in town as the guest
or bammy vigneux. Andrews Is on his
way from California to Spokane, where he
wlll manage a team In the Pacific North
west League, and he and his old friend

CHICAGO. Jan. 2. The New Tear's day
games at the Central Young Men's Chris
tian Association resulted In a broken rec
ord, the making of which for a time
threatened serious results to the compet
itor. In the "under water" swim G. W.
Earl swam 1SS feet, while submerged,
thereby breaking the Y. M. C. A. record
for the feat and winning the event, but he
did so at considerable cost. As he swam
the length of the tank for tho -third time
his body came to the surface, but It was
apparent that the athlete was uncon
scious. W. Wachs, a naval reserve swimmer,
noticed Earl's plight, jumped Into the
water and dragged the unconscious man
out of the tank. Earl was revived only
after being taken to the baths, where, he
was given a cold shower.

The Bible In Modern DlHCunxIon.
MYRTLE POINT. Or., Jan. L (To the
Editor.) Dr. Cllne's able and brave paper
concerning the Bible was well worthy a
place in The Orcgonlan. A careful read
ing of the paper can discern no aim to
assault the authority of the Book from
which he has preached 60 long to others.
It seems to the undersigned that the mat
ter of the existing Bible manuscripts need
give us no trouble. These manuscripts are
older In age than the exlstlns: manuscrlnts
of Greek and Latin authors. Notwithstand
ing human infirmity that has undoubted
ly left Its marks upon the copying of man
uscripts of the Bible, there has been pow
erful stimulus to copy with fidelity. Bi
ble manuscripts have been at many cen
ters of population, and have been watched
by foes as well as friends of the Scrip
tures. There .are at the present hour 1400
manuscripts of the Bible In the world,
and no differences affecting doctrine are
to be discovered.
I take a recipe of ingredients to cure a
disease, thinking no so much of how It
has come to me as Its effectiveness in re
moving a bodily ill. I do not know who
wrote the Book of Job, but the reading of
the drama lifts my soul above Its strug
gles and trials. I do not know who wrote
the Book of Hebrews of the New Testa
ment, but I catch In It a prescription for
my sins that I have tried with success.
This old and new book we call the Bfble
does not solve all problems, nor does It
directly perform all tasks. The bread I
eat does not earn my dally bread, but It
gives me strength to groom, feed and
harness my horses to pull the load and to
work by their sides until night and rest
have come. The Bible gives man strength
to do a thousand things about which it
Is perfectly silent. Why does the Bible
say so little about the heavenly world?
Because men and women have Imagina
tion to make their own heavens, and the
Bible fires the imagination to do this
work. The Bible does not tell us how
Jesus Christ looked when on the earth,
that we may carve out our own Christs
to be supplemented by any by In seeing
him as he Is. The Bible Is a text-book in
salvation, but It illumines nature, history.
Providence, and even art and science.
Mr. Editor. .the trouble with man is in
his own heart, and his 'disturbance Is
found In his own sins. There are as bad
men out of prison as within Its walls.
Indeed. I have found Christians among
the prisoners at the penitentiary of the
State of Oregon, whom I have addressed.
Many polished people in the outward pro
prieties of life have hearts full of sub
tle selfishness.. The A and the Z of the
Bible is Jesus Christ, and If nature Is a
revelation of God. it is not of a Redeemer.
If God reveals himself In modern indus
tries. He does put In them the Garden
and Calvary. Are the persons who have
thought that God becomes angry so far
astray after all? A man who is not an
gered by wicked people and at them Is of
no worth as a progressive force. Anger
sharpens our perceptions and gives em
phasis to utterance. Arc we better than
God? Why should not God be angry with
the wicked every day not only with their
actions, but with them, for actions are
men? Cannot love thunder? Certainly.
Yes. the theological professors are very
busy in discussing the foundations of tho
Bible, but with equal authority with them
as to what the Bible really is are the
thousands of men and women whose
names are not to ring through the records
of time, but which are written in heaven;
men and women they are who are living
the Bible; in fine, they are Blble$ them
selves. The Bible Is a lamp. We do not
look into a lamp, but we permit it to
throw light" upon the printed page or In
the room in which we are. The Bible has
come Into our world, not to lie on our
tables, but to come into our lives. . Yes,
to go out of Itself into us, to fit us to the,
world in which we live, and when that is
done, we may think of another world in
which to shine as the -sun,

FOUGHT BY THE OCEAN
(Coatlnued from First Page.)
vessel had not proceeded a mile from tho
dock when the full force of a gale from
behind tho high hills struck her. The
skipper at once decided not to go outside,
as picking up the buoy in the channel was
quite impossible.
It was then determined to. lay the shore
end while the conditions were favorable
on that side of the Island. The Sllvertown
-was taken In shore within half a mile of
the coral reef, and preparations were
made to haul a line ashore. 'The char
acter of the bottom, which Is rock with
a narrow opening through the coral reef,
rendered great care necessary In placing
tho extremely heavy type of cable.
Throughout the day crowds ashore
watched the steam launches running In
and out and awaited patiently the actual
'landing of the long-expected submarine
telegraph. At a quarter to 5 In the .even
ing, the end of tho cable left the Silver
town's bow with balloon buoys attached
at Intervals of 50 feet. A half mile of
heavy line was hauled ashore by steam
power without hitch or halt.
One hour and five minutes from the
time the line left the Sllvertown the cable
end was haulod upon the shore of pic
turesque Sans Soucl Park, amid the shouta
of thousands and the crash of band music,
rendering a cable march dedicated to
President Mackay. Just as the cable
touched the shore a heavy shower of rain
fell upon the gaily attired multitude, but
danger of a wetting was Ignored In the
eagerness td catch a glimpse of the line
that la to connect them with the rest of
the world. There was no official cere
mony at the time, further than the laying
of a Ieln, or native wreath, upon the end
of the cable by Mrs. Haws, who repeated
tho customary native greeting, "Aloha."
The Sllvertown remained at anchor hold
ing the line until near noon Monday. De
cember 29, when she moved out upon the
course prescribed by the chart in paying
out the cable. Six miles were laid to a
point off Koko Head. At this point rough
seas were encountered, and the line was
buoyed. A start was immediately mide
for Molokal Channel to Investigate wheth
er or not the buoy had weathered the
buffeting to which it had been subjected
for nearly threo day. The buoy was
riding in safety, but the marked buoy,
which had been dropped near It on Friday
morning, December 26. hid disappeared.
Tho seas were running even higher than
three days, previous. The wind continued
to blow half a gale from the northwest,
and no boat necessary In the picking up
of the buoy could have survived. An
other mark buoy was put down some dis
tance away, and the Sllvertown returned
to Honolulu and anchored off shore. It
was agreed that no further work would
be attempted until the wind abated and
the sea calmed.
The sea showed signs of abating on
Tuesday, December 30, but the big steam
er made no move. Wednesday also passed
In Idleness, with very little wind, and
for a time It was thought advisable to
make an attempt to complete the work.
It was finally decided, however, not to
risk the chance of lifting the cable from
the bottom of the sea' In any except calm
weither. It was reasoned that another
day would see the end of the period of
the northeast trades, the duration of
which surprised even the oldest residents
of Honolulu.
On Thursday, the first day of the new
year, scarcely a breeze stirred the waters
of the harbor, and advice came to the
ship from Diamond Head lighthouse that
the channel was quite calm, with only a
moderate swell running. A few minutes
after 4 o'clock in the morning the Silver
town heaved anchor and made a start
down the bay. Prospects of the cable
connection on the first day of the new
year created Intense Interest in the city,
where the enthusiasm had been some
what dulled by the long delay.
At daylight the Sllvertown arrived
off Koko Head, where the shore end had
been buoyed since Monday. With little
difficulty the line from the bottom was
spliced upon deck and passed over the
stern sheaves and a start was made for
the outer buoy. The cable was paid out
at the rate of seven knots an hour.
Shortly after 1 o'clock In the afternoon
the Sllvertown reached the point where
the San Francisco end was buoyed. The
sea was not rough, but the swell rolled
the vessel considerably. Great care was
taken in handling her while taking up
the buoy. It was finally accomplished at
3:44 o'clock without untoward Incidents.
The connection with the testing room
was quickly made, and San Francisco re
sponded promptly to the call. Congratu
lations and compliments of the season
passed between the ship and the short
Connection was then made, at 4:40. be
tween tho two lines and Honolulu by
ship.
There was Joy on board the Sllvertown
when the extraordinary strain which had
rested upon the entire staff for 19 day3
came to an end. Mr. Benest. the en
gineer in charge of the expedition, ex
pressed much relief- that the task had
been completed without accident. The
proverbial luch of the Sllvertown cirrlcd
her safely through 2000 miles in as rough
weather as ever cable was laid. There
fore, the celebration of New Year's on
board the ship had a double significance
and was doubly welcome.
Four hours were spent In testing and
allowing the recently laid line to acquire
the temperature of the ocean depths. At
8:40 P. M., Honolulu time, came the first
call from San Francisco.
FIRST MESSAGES RECEIVED.
One to President, Second to 3Iackny,
Third to Associated Prcns.
SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 2. The Silver
town, Just before splicing the ends of the
cable, some 30 miles off shore from Hono
lulu, telegraphed both ways for the land
stations to wait till 11:10 o'clock, -San
Francisco time, before trying the cable.
That time was desired to Insure the per
fect hardening of the gutta percha In the
splice after the Joint should be lowered
overboard from the ship in about 2500 feet
of water.
Operators sat anxiously and eagerly
about the Instruments In King street, at
Honolulu, and in the cable office on Mar
ket street, in San 'Francisco, waiting for
the time limit to expire. San Francisco
was watching for Honolulu to signal first.
A few moments after 11 o'clock, before
the time limit was up, a signal went from
this end to Honolulu. That first Jlttle
response from Honolulu came Into the
San Francisco office at exactly 11:03
o'clock. It was then exactly S:41 o'clock
In Honolulu, the time difference being
two hours and 22 mlnues and a few
seconds.
The first message received was from
Governor Dole to President Roosevelt. It
was merely a formal greeting and con
gratulation from the people of Hawaii to
the people of the United States from one
chief executive to the other. The mes
sage was transmitted at the Market-street
office to a wire leading directly to the
executive mansion at Washington,' and
receipt was acknowledged" at 11:23 o'clock.
When the message reached the White
House President RooseveTl was asleep,
and the operator refused to awaken him.
Right after the Dole signature on the
first message came a second through from
Honolulu. It was arectlng from the
people of Hawaii to Clarence H. Mackay,
president of the cable company, congrat
ulating him upon the completion, of the
cable and expressing sorrow that John
W. Mackay had not survived to see the
instantaneous bond between the Islands
and the American Continent. This mes
sage was signed by Henry E. Cooper,
Secretary of the Territory of Hawaii.
Then came a message from the Asso
ciated Press correspondent on the Silver
town, telling of the successful laying of
the cable and of the celebration of the
event Jn Honolulu. The paper ribbon
containing the record of the first experi
mental words between San Francisco and
Honolulu was cut into little sections of
a few phrases each arid divided among
the score of spectators who were as
sembled about the instruments when San
Francisco and ' Honolulu first spoke to
each other under the Pacific Ocean.
The line was open for business today.

nila. Speaking- of the project, Mr. Ward
said:
"The .widespread interest created by
bringing the Hawaiian Islands Into elec
tric touch with the Pacific Coast Is evi
denced by congratulatory telegrams re
ceived today. It Is a particular satisfac
tion to us to have the cable completed on
the first day of the new year, because It
fulfills our promise to Congress.
"Rapid progress is being made la the
manufacture of the sections to be laid
between Honolulu and Manila, and over
3500 miles of this cable has already been
manufactured. I fully expect messages
will be exchanged with Manila by the
Fourth of July next. The laying of the re
maining sections will commence from
Manila the first week in May next."
KEPT BUSY FIRST DAY.
Cable Crowded With ConRratuIa
tionn Begins Buxineftx Monday.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2. The new Pa
cific cable has been crowded with mes
sages ever since the first flutter came over
the wire from Honolulu, shortly after 11
o'olock New Year's night. Three different
operators took turns at the San Francisco
Instrument for 19 consecutive hours to
day. When the cable was given over to the
contractors tonight to test Its qualities
and the Instruments for four hours, no
less than 000 words had passed between
San Francisco and Honolulu. Every sylla
ble so far sent throush the cable has
been without pay. About 500 congratu
latory messages went through averaging
10 words to the mesrage. At the regular
rate of 50 cents a word. It would have
meant $2500 for the company. These con
gratulatory messages were from the pub
lic officials of Hawaii and public bodies of
the Islands, from the different Governors
of the Coast States, from various Cham
bers of Commerce and Boards of Trado of
the Pacific Coast, from several large com
mercial houses and from prominent pri
vate Individuals at both ends of the wire.
Tomorrow and next day the cable will
still be open for complimentary messages
to pass. Monday morning tho line will be
regularly opened for paid messages at the
rate ot ao cents a word for private per
sons and 20 cents a word for press mes
sages. Not only English messages, but cable
grams In French, German and Portuguese
came through from Honolulu today.

The Founder ot the system.
Functional derangement, such as premature Toss of power, etc.,
is neither a "-weakness" nor a disease. It is a symptom of
" prostatic !' disorder. To stimulate activity by the use of powerful
tonics is an easy matter, but such results are merely temporary
drug effects. Most doctors treat "weakness" in this manner
because they do not know how to cure the real cause of the de
rangement. We are the only physicians employing scientific and
successful methods. Our principal treatment is a local one and
corrects every abnormal condition of that vital center, "THE
PROSTATE GLAND." Our cures are real cures.
Twenty-one Years of Successful Practice
aa specialists In "Men's Diseases" justifies every claim we make.
We promise our patients a complete cure In every instance, and In
cases where we cannot safely make this promise, we positively refuse
to treat.
URETHRAL OBSTRUCTION
Our treatment Is absolutely
painless, and perfect results can
be depended upon In every In
stance. We do no dilating or cut
ting whatever.
CONTRACTED DISORDERS
Be sure your cure ls thorough.
Not one of our patients has ever
had a relapse after being dis
charged as cured, and we cure in
less tirn than the ordinary forms
of treatment require.
