3 THE MOBNING OEEGOKCA. rUBEEE, APRIL 18, 1905. ' GT STAND Mrs. Carter Testifies in Suit Brought by Belasco. PROFITS GIVEN TO TRUST Double Dealing Is Charged Against 3iembers rof One of 'the. Big Theatrical Firms in the City of 2few York. NEW YORK, April 17. Mrs. Leslie Carter, the actress, was a witness to dayvin the case of David Belasco, the playwright, against Klaw & Erlanger. Mrs. Carter was called by Samuel Un termeyer, counsel for Belasco, to testi fy regarding a meeting between Be lasco and Nixon & Zimmerman, the atrical managers of Philadelphia, at which she was present. Belasco had testified regarding this meeting when he was on the stand last week, soon after the opening of the trial in his suit '.In which he seeks to prove that Klaw &. Erlanger were his partners in the production of "The Auctioneer," with David Warfleld. Mrs. Carter's tes timony today corroborated that of Be lasco regarding the Philadelphia meeting. "Mr. Belasco told Mr. Nixon," said Mrs. Carter, "that he had been obliged to glye Erlanger 60 per cent of War field's profits. 'Why,' said Mr. Nixon, "I did not lenow that,' and then Mr. Nixon said that his time would come when he (Nixon) could bring Erlanger to terms for double dealing." Abraham Gruber, counsel for Klaw & Erlanger, objected, but was over ruled. "Did you know Mr. Brooks at that time?" asked Mr. Utermeyer. "Yes, but his name was not men tioned. Mr. Nixon said he wanted Mr. Belasco lo keep away from the theater, for he wanted to get 'Zaza' opened and they were trying to serve papers on him." "Did he use a profane word?" "Yes," replied Mrs. Carter; "Mr. Nix on said there would be " she paused a second and smiled, "hell to pay." "Have you ever talked to anybody about this case?" "I certainly have. It has been on my mind for a year, and I have talked to everybody about it." "What did you tell Mr. Vandiver of counsel?" "I told him what I knew, and that is what I am going to testify to." - 'What did you say you were going 'to testify to?" "Just as I have told you." 1 "Won't you please tell it again?" aeked Mr. Gruber. "I love to hear you talk." "Thank you," said Mrs. Carter; "It Is so kind of you. I told Mr. Vandiver that they were trying to do Mr. Belasco out of all his money and how they tried to get 'Zaza' away from him." "No, I mean what you told him you were going to testify to as to the Nixon interview." "I am trying to tell you," said Mrs. Carter. "1 told Mr. Vandiver just what I have told you. Mr. Nixon said, 'they said Klaw & Erlanger had tried to jump Belaseo from one part of the globe to another,' they were trying to make him spend hla money, they were afraid of him with money, they were afraid of him anyway. Nixon said he had none of the money, and he was going to call Klaw & Erlanger to account for their actions." "You are friendly to Mr. Belasco, are you not?" "Not only friendly." replied Mrs. Car ter, "but thankful grateful from the bot tom ,of my heart." T Marc Klaw, a member of the firm of Klaw- & Erlanger, was a witness at to day's session of the court. Mr. Klaw produced some check stubs at the re quest of Mr. Untermyer, but several which were wanted in connection with the case were missing. The witness promised to produce them. Mr. Untermyer declared that subpenas served on Klaw & Erlanger have been repeatedly dis obeyed by them. "We are going to get at the bottom of these books, and. we will show you how they are kept before we get through," he said. Mr. Klaw said his firm made $20,000 on "The Auctioneer," and also received its share of the profits of the theaters where he play was produced. His firm, how ever, never was a partner in "The Auc tioneer," he declared, except through Joseph Brooks, and It was from Brooks that Klaw & Erlanger received the $20, 000. ''You paid "Franklin Beln a check when you were trying to stop Belasco from producing 'The Music Master?" asked Mr. Untermyer. "If we did we paid it for Brooks," the witness replied. Herman P. Aaron, book keeper for Klaw & Erlanger for seven years, said there was no account in a certain ledger which was produced ex cept with Klaw & Erlanger. One page was writen, "David Fairfield Company." The bookkeeper testified that all the ex penses of "The Auctioneer" were charged to the expense account of Klaw & Er langer. When Mr. Untermyer called for Robert Walker, confidential manager for Al Heyman, he did not respond, and the attorney handed up a subpena and body attachment. David Belasco, the plaintiff, then was recalled to the stand to rebut some testi mony given by" some of Klaw & Erlanger's witnesses earlier in, the trial. He denied that he ever told Joseph Brooks that he was much gratified at the success of "The Auctioneer," or that he ever thanked Abraham Erlanger for getting him Mr. Brooks as a partner. "What was the theatrical situation in 1300 and 1901 to get a route?" asked Mr. Untermyer. "I could not get a route without the assistance of Klaw & Erlanger. I could have got one or two night stands with long jumps. I could not get the assist ance of Klaw & Erlanger without giv ing 50 per cent of the profits. As I said before, I am bottled up in New York." Mr. Untermyer then Informed the court that with the exception of Mr. Walker's testimony his case was finished. He asked for an adjournment to take Walk er's testimony and time for counsel to sum up. Justice Fitzgerald ordered an adjourn ment until Thursday, when each side will sum up.

BUSY ON REFORM SCHEMES Various Elements Seem TJnahle to Make Any Headway. ST. PETERSBURG, April lS.-(2:30 A. M.) The reform elements of various persuasions are busily elaborating schemes of new governmental machinery, but without co-ordination, and unless the "various elements come together In some such organization as that proposed by the barristers at their recent congress here, the projected reform is likely to suffer from the multiplicity of views and aims. Three distinct assemblies of lib erals were in -session in St. Petersburg yesterday, the engineers, the litterateurs and a group attempting to form a new moderate constitutional party, and today there will be the opening meeting of an assembly, of provincial Journalists. The litterateurs' session was barren of results; the meeting of engineers, which was held privately, was discovered and dispersed by the police before it passed the preliminary stage, and the moderate constitutionalists, after a two days ses sion, were unable to agree on a pro gramme to which if wished to commit the new party. Meetings will be contin ued to endeavor to formulate a working plan before the congress of Moderate Zemstvolsts early in May. The factory-owners and operators and others who come in contact with the worklngmen meanwhile are growing more apprehensive of the action of the wora ingmen after Easter. The attitude of tnis class la becoming daily more pronounced, and the middle classes of the city are thoroughly alarmed, reports declaring that the worklngmen have decided to in augurate an era of pillage and Incendiar ism on May 2, the third day of the Eas ter celebration. Even the symbols de noting houses that are to be pillaged are reported to have been determined. A policeman was killed on Monday by a crowd of sailors attached to the fourth squadron, which is being made ready for departure to the Far East. The police man ordered the crowd to disperse, and on Its refusal drew a revolver and wounded two of the sailors, but was beaten to death while vainly trying to de fend himself with his saber. Fielght traffic on the Trans-Caucasus Railway has been suspended, owing to a strike. The situation there Is serious. Cholera Is reported in several parts of the empire, but the cases so far are only sporadic. THE DAY'S DEATH RECORD Mrs. Hannah Nelson. PLiAIN FIELD, N. 0., April 17.

A MOMENT'S SOLEMN HUSH Denizens of the Restricted District "Watch Singing Thousands for ah Instant, Then the Old Bound Begins Again. ' SEATTLE, Wash.. April 17. (Spe cial.) Men and women who tottered as they marched; boys and girls, chil dren in years; zealots of middle life tand persons of the world tramped be hind a band that was" paid to march while the Chapman evangelical pro cession swung through the tenderloin tonight The midnight parade was soul-satisfying, while it was sad. It was up lifting as It was disgusting. Eyes that involuntarily swept the windows peo pled by curious denizens of the under world made one almost forget the fer vor of the singing 3000 that swept through the streets wrapped In the belief that a great good was being ac complished. Three big meetings followed the pa rade, and from that standpoint, as well as- from the viewpoint of numbers, the demonstration was successful. After it was all over, windows were raised, curtains were pushed back, and the heads of timid men were thrust out to watch the tail of the proces sion winding its way up the street. The shouts, cries and songs died away in the distance. For a few mlniltK th tenrtorlnln was dazed. The orchestras were sI- lent, voices were flushed, and on the street the impulse was to praise. Then the accustomed pandemonium broke forth. The piano player began thrum ming; men and women thronged from the streets to the saloons; glasses clinked; the ribald shouts of debauched creatures rang out, and the under world was again revelling in Its sin. From the distance the echo of the drums came; fragments of sacred songs floated back on the evening air. Through the streets wandered the curious-minded. From the sidewalks eyes that had been strangers to Iniquity sought out the habitats of the harpy and prowler. Timid women shrank closer to the unwilling escorts they had dragged to the slums. Then wickedness took rein and ruin solved Its problem. By a common Im pulse wayfarers swarmed toward sa loon doors. With one thought the den izens of the restricted district crowded the bars. It was a cry of whisky that rang out; an appeal for thoughtless ness. It was as though the curtain had raised for a moment upon an unpre pared stage. The performers scurried ior the wings, remained hidden for the moment, and then rushed forth more abandoned, more reckless and more daring than ever. The tenderloin came back to Its own; overwhelmed it; wel comed new converts and rejoiced in Its power. Far up the street a winding procession lost here and there a zealot, who dropped Into the dive, the Strand, and helped through the religious cere mony. But the tenderloin revelled again in its own wickedness and ig nored the appeal for souls. MEAD -FORGOT PILES' FRIEXDS Senator Wanted P. L. Alien Ap pointed AVashington State Printer. "SEATTLE, Wash., April 17. fSpeclal.) When Governor Mead appointed C. W.

I will gladly give you a full dollar's worth of my rem edy to test. Nothing to deposit. Nothing to promise. The dollar bottle Is free. Your Druggist, on my order, will hand you a full dollar's worth and send me the bill. Why do work and worry and excess and strain and overindulgence break down consti tutions and make men and women worn out and run down and restless and slecplees and discouraged and morose? Because they weak en the tiny, tender nerves on which life Itself depends. Not the nerves you ordinarily think about not the nerves that govern your movements and your thoughts. But the automatic nerves that, ungulded and unknown, night and day, keep your heart In motion control the digestive apparatus regu late your liver operate your kidneys. These are the nerves that worry wears out and work breaks down. It does no good to treat the ailing organ the Irregular heart the disordered liver the rebellious stomach the deranged kidneys. They are rot to blame. But go back to the nerves that control them. There you will find the neat of the trouble. It does no good to take stimulants and nar cotics, for theirs, at best. Is but a temporary effect which merely postpones the final day of reckoning. There Is nothing new about this nothing any physician would dispute. But It remained for Dr. Shoop to apply his knowledge to put It to practical use. Dr. Snoop's Restorative Is the result of a quarter century of endeavor along this very line. It does not dose the organ to dtaden the pain but it does go at once to the nerve the inside nerve the power nerve and builds It up. and strengthens It and makes It well. That is the end of all vital troubles. That Is the end of sleepless nights and restless days. That Is the end of "nerv ousness." the end of brain fag and fatigue. If you are worn out, run down and have never tried my remedy, merely write and ask. I will send you an order oa your druggist which he will accept as gladly as he would accept e dollar. He will hand you from his shelves a standard-sized bottle of my prescrip tion, and he will send the bill to me. This offer is made only to strangers to my remedy. Those who have once used the Restorative do not need this evidence. There are no con ditions no requirements. It is open and frank and fair. It la the supreme test of my limitless belief. All that I ask you to do Is to write write today. For a free order for Book 1 on Dyspepsia, a full dollar bottle, you Book 2 on tn Heart, must address Dr. Book 3 on the Kidneys. Shoop. Box G.
