Expected 3Iarriage.
NEW YORK. April 28. After a day of
interesting developments, both the prose-
ition and the defense- rested in the case
cf Nan Patt'ferso'n. indicted .for the alleged
murder of Caesar Young, the wealthy
bookmaker, almost a year ago. The pros
ecution finished its case just before the
adjournment of the court, and later Mr.
O'Reilly, of counsel for Miss Patterson,
notified the prosecution that his fide
would submit no defense and would rest
cn the contention that the state had failed
to make any case. The pian had been un
der consideration, lor some days, but was
only decided upon at a conference today
between the counsel pr Nan Patterson
and her aged father.
The decision means the speedy conclu
sion of the young woman's third trial.
When the case is called Monday, to which
date the trial was adjourned today. As
sistant District Attorney Rand will imme
diately begin the summing up of the case
of the state.
Eesldes this, the succession of events
wfcteh marked today's proceedings Included
the court's denial of a motion to dismiss
the Indictment; the testimony of the pria
cner s sister, Mrs. J. Morgan Smith, in
'which she made some interesting state
ments, but stood on her right to rofuse
to answer questions, on the ground that
the answers might incriminate her; Mr.
Rand's promise to quash the conspiracy
indictments against Mrs. Smith 3f she
would answer his questions; the protest
of the counsel for the defense to the court
that Mr. Rand's merciless method of ques
tioning was "badgering the witnesses,"
and the rejection again by the court of
the much-quoted letter of Mrs. Smith to
Young expressing fear as to the conse
quences If Young did not see her sister.
Young Would Not Marry Nan.
The direct examination of? Mrs. Smith,
which was not completed, yesterday, was
resumed today. Mrs. Smith testified yes
terday that Miss Patterson had expected
Caesar Young toget a divorce from his
wife and marry her.. She, herself, be
lieved that Young intended eventually to
marry her sister until last May, when
Leslie Cogglns told her that Young did
not Intend to- carry out the agreement.
Miss Patterson became greatly excited
when Cogglns' statement was repeated to
her, Mrs. Smith said.
Taking up the examination where it
was interrupted by the adjournment last
night, Mr. Rand asked:
"Did not Cogglns tell you that the best
thing Young thought Nan could do was
to accept Matt Trimble's offer, of mar
riage?" ' Ho did not say anything like that to
me," replied Mrs. Smith.
"Did Miss Patterson say that the cause
of her emotion was that Cogglns had mis
represented Young's intentions toward
her?"
"She did not say so in those words, but
I knew it."
Mrs. Smith said Nan refused' to believe
the story told by Coggins. She was .ex
cited, thp "witness ".said, .boc&use she was
disappointed at the postponement of her:
marriage to Young.
"She did not ay anything about her
future intentions?"
'No."
"She did not tell you ivhat she was go
ing to do?" 7 '
-No."
' And yet you described Tier as' 'frantic'
and desperate'?" - ' -
'Yes."
"When you wrote the letter to Young
were you in a state of feeling brought
on by what Nan had "told you?" ,
"Yes, my sister Is not responsible for
that letter."
"Did that letter represent truthfully the
state of your mlnd?
"It did."
'Did it represent Nan's state of-mind?"
This question was not answered.
Mr. Rand here offered the intercepted
letter which Mrs. Smith sent to Young,
which was ruled out yesterday, and again
it was rejected by Recorder Goff. '
Mrs. Smith's Story of Fatal Day.
Mrs. Smith said that when Miss Pat
terson procured a divorce from her
husband all her expenses In the pro
ceedings were paid by Young. The
witness detailed the. movements of
herself and husband and Miss Patter
son on the day before Young's death.
They went to the races, where they saw
Young, and returned to their apartments
in New York about 7 P. M. , - . ,
' Did you and your husband visit
Stern's pawnshop that night?" asked
Mt. Rand.
We did not," the witness answered.
Mrs. Smith described the movements
of the trio that evening, and told
about Nan's going- out to meet Young
late that night, and her return home
about 3 o'clock the next morning.
About 7 o'clock that morning, she
said. Young called on the telephone
and said he wanted, to meet Nan. Nan
was asleep, and the witness did not
want to wake her. Young1 called again
a littlo later and repeated the request,
and within a few minutes called a
third time. Mrs. Smith then told him
that Nan had got up and was on the
"way to meet him.
Fears to Incriminate Herself.
In the course of his examination, Mr.
Rand asked Mrs. Smith If she had pos
sessed all .the Information she has test!
fled to in this trial all the time since she
left New York last June. Mrs. Smith
replied that she would.like to answer the
question, but feared it would tend to de
grade and Incriminate her, as she is under
indictment for conspiracy.
The prosecutor then promised that if
she would answer he would move next
Monday to tjuash the indictment against
her, but she declined to do so, until she
had an opportunity to consult her coun
sel.
After she had consulted -with her coun
sel, Mrs. Smith declined' to answer the
question. I must stick to mr sister,'
she told the Prosecuting Attorney, as
she resumed the stand.
"And you rofuse to answer, notwith
standing my promise in open court to
have the Indictment against you
quashed?" asKea jur. .Kan a.
"I do."
"Again I ask, were you in New York on
June 8?"
"I decline to answer because my posl
tlon might tend to degrade and incrimi
nate me.
Recorder Goff . directed the witness" to
answer the" question, -saving -that 'it'xalled
for an answer. She still declined to do
so. saying: - ,
"I must stick to. my sister."
"Will -vou answer if the indictment for
conspiracy on which you are ield is dis
missed now?" oroke in Mr. Hand.
"No." replied the witness.
Mr. Rand said that for the curoose
of testing' the credibility of th"e witness
be would ask Her If he and her hus
band did not go to a hotel In Hoboken
on" the evening of June 8 last and
register under assumed names. Again
she declined to answer. She said in
answer to a question that sho dfd not
see Stern, the pawnbroker, In Toronto
last March, but heard he was there
She declined to answer when asked .if
she and her husband left Toronto .whqii
news of Stern's presence there reached
them.
"Would Not Identify JLcttcr. '
Mrs. Smith identified a letter which
she wrote to her sister, Harriet How
ell, of Washington. This letter was
written from Toronto, and was said by
Mr. Rand to contain a statement to the
effect that Stem was there for'the pu
pose of identifying them as the pur
chasers of the revolver, and that they
would have to go away. The name
Stern, Mr. Rand claims, 'is represented
by the letter "S,' and he attempted to
get a confirmatory admission from "the
witness. She declined to answer when
the question was put to her, however,
and again Rand offered to -dismiss the
conspiracy indictment If she would re
ply. Attorney Levy, for the defense, broke
in at this point with an objection to the
methods- which were being" employed by
the prosecutor. He complained to the
Recorder that tho witness was being
"badgered," and ask that Rand be warned
to proceed In a different way. Mr. Rand
replied, that he would not press for an
answer, as he had no desire to confuse
the witness.
Mrs. Smith said she learned of Stern's
presence in Toronto through a detective,
but declined to answer .when asked It the
detective had not told her that -Stern had
arranged to return to New York as soon
as he saw' her and her husband.
During the examination of Mrs. Smith
this afternoon, the witness identified a
ring and a bracelet which she said were
her property and were pawned some time
ago by her husband. Mr. Rand attempt
ed to draw from her an admission that
they were pawned at Hyman Stern's shop
on June 3 last, but In this he failed. Two
renewal tlcketa which the prosecution pro
duced, one for the ring pledged for $5
and the other for the bracelet pledged for
$10, were dated October 4. 1901, and Oc
tober 20, 1904. respectively.
Just before the prosecution rested. Mr.
Rand read extracts from the testimony
given by Miss Patterson at the last trial,
and then recalled Mrs. Margaret Young,
the dead bookmaker's widow. She was
asked If she and her husband ever had
discussed a logal separation, but was not
permitted to answer tho question.
Motion to Dismiss Denied.
A motion by Miss Patterson's counsel
that the case be taken from the jury and
the indictment against her dismissed was
denied by Recorder Goff after exhaustive
arguments, by the defense andprosecutlon.
In his argument for dismissal Mr. Un
ger, of counsel for the defense, contended
that the conspiracy accusation had prac
tically been abandoned by the prosocu-
tlon. which had failed to prove that J.
Morgan Smith was tho purchaeer of tho
revolver. He further claimed that, as the
case was admittedly one of circumstantial
evidence, the testimony of Drs. O'Hanlon,
RIgglns and Phelps indicated filicide
rather than murder. Replying to the ar
gument. Assistant District Attorney Rand
contended that, in view of the fact that
the crime had been proved beyond all
question of doubt, even if nothing was
known of the relations of the defendant
with Young and of her threats against
Young, the case ought to be submitted to
the Jury on the character of the wound,
which could not have been self-inflicted.
He insisted that he had proven beyond all
doubt that Smith was In Stern's pawnshop
on June 3, 1901. the day the revolver was
sold. He had not expected the pawn
broker to Identify Smith, as a man in that
eort of business was reluctant to make
identifications.
In denying the motion of the defense
Recorder Goff told the Jury that his ruling
on the law points should not bo considered
by them to the prejudice of the defendant.
A-story to the effect that Miss Patterson
and her sister quarreled in the Tombs last
night over the testimony given by Mrs.
Smith -was - denied by their father.. John
Randolph Patterson, today. In doing so
he said:
I am thankful to say that my daugh
ters are devoted sisters: and, even if they
were not, there would be no occasion for
them to quarrel now, when there Is so
much reason for them to help each other.
I feel free to say that cither 'would be
glad to sacrifice anything for the other.

HALCYON DAYS IN C0REA
Japanese Reform Barbaric Empire
to Emperor's Disgust.
LONDON, April 3. The Times' corre
spondent visiting Gorea, telegraphs from
Seoul that the country is undergoing a
wonderful transformation. "The reforms
that Japan has already- effected," tho cor
respondent says, "are a blessing to the
people, but are causing dismay to the
Emperor and his court. The Emperor is
cruelly disillusioned, but still hopes for
the ultimate success of Russian power,
which fostered the worst influencos of his
barbaric reign, and he maintains commu
nication with Lamsdorff through Ye Sal
Kuen, ex-Fo'rolgn Minster, now attached
to Pavjoff, ex-Russian Minister to Corea,
at Shanghai.
"The conduct of the Japanese has been
exemplary. Never before have Coreans
earned such wages. Civilian Japanese arc
pouring into the country, and It Is esti
mated that they number 60,050. Already
there Is a practically uninterrupted chain
of Japanese settlements from Fusan to
tho Yalu. Railway extension and other
Improvements have made remarkable
progress. Most of the foreign advisers
have left the country and have been suc
ceeded by Japanese.
"The most difficult post of all. adviser
to the Foreign Office, Is entrusted to an
American, whose patience, tact and abil
ity in reconciling conflicting interests have
won praise from all -nationalities.
"The Corcan army has been reduced to
a small palace guard, the Corcan police
have been suspended and a Japanese gen
darmerie is policing the Seoul district.
Never has tho capital known such im

extend the system to the country."
EVIDENCE NOT GARBLED
Gladden Replies to Charge Made by
Rockefeller's Lawyer.
CLEVELAND, April 2S. Rev. Wash
ington Gladden tonight gave out a
statement in reply to the claim of Starr
Murphy, of the private counsel of John
D. Rockefeller, -that assertions made
by Dr. Gladden were based upon gar
bled reports of Mr. Rockefeller's testi
mony in the courts.
Dr. Gladden says ho can find no rec
ord of the chartering of the "South. Im
provement Company," and continues:
"It. does not appear from the records
of tho Investigation in which Mr.
Rockefeller was a witness that any
mention had been made "of the two
companies of similar names. It 'does
not appear that General Pryor, who
was asking' these questions, had ever

largely deprived about 15.000 other men of
work. It was Impossible today to have
a package delivered to an address outside
of the downtown district from any of
the large drygoods stores. Custom
ers were told that delivery of
large parcels could not be made
for a day or two at least, and they
were strongly urged to take small pack
ages with them. Hundreds of people
called in person and by telephone at the
headquarters of the drygoods drivers ask

requests were refused. Express drivers,
however, were instructed by the strike
leaders to carry coffins and flowors to
funerals and in no manner Interfere with

was broken just above the wrist.
Steady progress had been reported by

securing men to take the places of the

Two men were shot and seriously
wounded tonight by Charles King, a non

car when a crowd of strikers which had
followed him boarded the car and attacked
him. King drew a revolver and emptied
It at his assailants. He shot none of the
men who attacked him, but instead the
bullets struck two men who were stand
ing near watching the fight. Joseph Zelg
ler, one of the Injured men, rocolved a
bullet In the left thigh, the bone .being
shattered. His log will have to be ampu

lving was arrested by the police after a
fight, in which he attempted to shoot the
officers.

WASHINGTON, April 28.--Secretary
Taft today received an application from
the acting Secretary of the Treasury for
the transportation of treasury coin and
bullion passing between the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad station in Chicago and the
sub treasury in that city, which is reported
to be interrupted by tho teamsters'
strike.
The Secretary accordingly Instructed
Colonel Duggan, who is temporarily In
command of -the Department of the
Lakes, to furnish the necessary teams
and military guard upon application from
the subtreasurer. It is explained that
this action has nothing to do with the
strike, but i made necessary to prevent
an interruption of the functions of Government.
STRIKE AS VIEWED HERE.
How the Itabor Leaders and Em
. plovers- Regard It.
Portland labor leaders look with ease
of mind upon the trouble now convulsing
country will be to sober the -actions of
the-unions and to make the. labor leaders
more careful, to bring about a greater
regard forthe observance of contracts
and the performance of duty on the one
hand and the observance of the laws of
justice on ihc other.
"It appears that the business men of
Chicago have stood under the demands
of the labor unions until they have had to
resist In order to retain a control of their
businesses. I do not think the Employers'
Association desires an unjust advan
tage, and I believe they are willing to
give common justice to all In every case.
That Is all we want, and I think the out
come of the struggle will be the recogni
tion of the contention and-the consequent
greater Industrial peace and harmony for
the future.
BRYAN'S NOVEL LOGrC.
Smaller Democratic Vote, Stronger
the Party.
. ST. JOSEPH, Mo.. April 2S. William J.
Bryan was the guest of honor and Repre
sentative Champ Clark was toastmaster
at the Monroe day banquet here tonight.
Mr. Bryan's subject was "Back to the
People." He said In part:
"The Democratic party has lost in
three campaigns, and the majority has
Increased, yet the party Is stronger to-'
day than It has been at any time, since
the polls closed In 1632, because it stands
upon solid ground, and because events
have been proving the correctness of the
position taken by it. The Democrats who
have been keeping the faith have no
doubt of tho final triumph of their prin
ciples. The forces that are behind the
truth are as Irresistible and as constantly
at work as the forces of nature which
bring forth the harvest from the seed
that Is sown, and sustained by faith In
the triumph of their cause the Demo
crats arc ready for the fight in 190S.
"Wherever In any state Republican re
formers proposo legislation in the inter
ests of the people, they will receive Dem
ocratic support, and the Democrats will
thus prove the sincerity of their pur
pose. If through Republican initiative ro
forms are accomplished. Democrats will
share In the honor of securing those re
forms, and If Republicans fall to se
cure reforms, the efforts, made will fur
nish an education of which the Democrats
can take advantage In their next appeal

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. April 2S. Judging from sur
face indications, It Is within the power
of the O. R. & N. Rallroaa or the Har
rlman people to say whether or not
the Government shall build the Palouse
Irrigation project in Eastern Washing
ton. For some ' time the Government
has been convinced of the feasibility of
this project and anxious to undertake
Its construction, but could not proceed
because of Inability to make terms with
this railroad for removal of Its tracks
from Washtucna Coulee, which Is to be
the principal storage reservoir.
It Is estimated that It will cost fully
$35 per acre to build the Palouse pro
ject irrespective of the cost of removal
of .railroad .tracks. If the Government Is
compelled to bear the entire cost of
track removal or even tho major por
tion. It will ..so Increase the cost of the
project as to make It prohibitive at
this time. Under present conditions,
land In Washington will not bear a cost
exceeding JS5 an' acre for -water. No
such expensive project will be under
taken in any . Northern Btate and in
one lnatance only In California does the
cost, of .irrigation, exceed this figure.
But under that project the lands to be
reclaimed will, when Irrigated,- yield
all the year round seven crops. of al
falfa a year, so that a heavy cost can
bo borne.
If the O. R. & N.t after further study.
makes a concession and either stands
the entire cost of removing Its tracks
from the reservoir site or assumes the
bulk of that burden, the Palouse project
can probably be built, but. If the road
Insists that the Government shall as
sume the entire expense, the project
must he abanJoncd, at least for several
years to cdme. The Government Is leav
ing expensive projects until the last,
for present conditions do not warrant
extremely costly works.
The Reclamation , Service is anxious
to. recolve a generous" offer- from the O.
R. & N., and final-negotiations to that
end are now under way. The outcome of
those negotiations will determine the
fate'of-tnc Palouse project.
CANXOT KEEP OUT WHISKY
Reclamation Service Has Xo -Power
to Forbid Liquor Traffic.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, April 28. Assistant Attorney
General Campbell today handed down
an opinion In which he holds that the
Interior Department Is without power
and cannot Interfere In traffic in alco
holic beverages on land under Govern
ment irrigation projects throughout the
country. . The opinion was handed down
at the request of tho Reclamation Serv
ice, which 'insists that land under irri
gation projects is being entered upon
by bootleggers for the sole purpose of
selling spirituous liquors to men em
ployed there. The service says that Its
force is greatly demoralized by this
traffic. Secretary Hitchcock promises
to call the attention ofstate authorities
to the matter.
This opinion immediately affect? the
