started to go by the New York runner,
the latter seized Haskins and deliberately
threw him to the floof. Haskins' friends
then rushed Sheppard and punched and
kicked him. Friends of Sheppard ran in,

BENEFIT FOR FORMER BOXER
Mat and Ring: Contests Please Large
Crowd at Merrill's Hall.
Merrill's hall was comfortably filled
with boxing and wrestling enthusiasts
last night at the benefit entertainment
for Jack Hill, a former prizefighter, whose
health makes it necessary for him to go
to a drier climate. The five boxing
bouts were friendly matches and were
not Intended to be grueling contests. ' A
couple of the bouts, while they were lack'
Ing in science, were as funny1 as a Punch
and Judy show.
By far the best contest of the night
. was the wrestling match between Ed
Kennedy, Portland's favorite first base
man, and "Strangler" Smith. The first
fall went to Kennedy In 8 minutes and
tS seconds, and was as pretty a mat con
test as has been witnessed In Portland.
The second fall went to Smith in, accord
ance with an agreement that even a near
fall should count. Smith was considera
bly lighter than Kennedy, and because
of his willingness to wrestle pleased the
crowd. After the match was over Smith
challenged Kennedy to a wrestling match
to take place in three weeks, which was
accepted.
"Mysterious" Billy Smith and Charles
Yost got together In a friendly bout.
which at" times assumed the hue of bur
lesque. Smith showed that he had not
forgotten any of the tricks of the game
by reason of his long absence from the
ring. The others who participated were
the Sullivan brothers. York and Daly,
and iBundy and Murphy. Joe Thompson,
nf the Grand Theater, contributed a song
to fill out the programme. The entertain
meat netted about $300.

LAST CHANCE AT COLVMBLVS
If Hornets Lose Today, Leaders
Have an Unbroken String.
Fnusual Interest attaches to today's
Iraguo game In association football circles
because a victory for the Columbias will
mean that the champions will have gone
through the season without allowing even
a tie match. Jealous of the unexpected
success of their rivals, the Hornets have
slated the strongest eleven they can
tlnd. and have rearranged their men In
one or two places to balance the eleven
better. Kickoff will be at the baseball
grounds at 3 o'clock.
Hornets and Columbias have met twice
before this season, the latter winning
lioth games, in the first case by 2 to 0,
in tho second by 4 to 3.

DELAYED BY STORM
Foreign Witnesses in Thaw
Trial Fail to Arrive.
POSTPONEMENT" FOR DAY
Jerome Tries to Get Xames, but Lit
tleton Refuses and Exposes the.
Prosecution's Game Trial
Will End "ext Week.
NEW YORK, Jan. 24. The blinding
snowstorm which swept New York today
caused the first serious interruption of
the second Thaw trial. It put an embargo
on practically all the shipping in the
lower bav and prevented the big steamer
Adriatic from reaching her dock. On
board the liner are four physicians and
a, trained nurse from Europe who, Mr.
Littleton declared in court, are Important
witnesses for the defense and whose testi
mony he desires to place upon the record,
before propounding hypothetical ques
tions to the three experts who will swear
that, when Harry K. Thaw shot and
killed White, he was so mentally deficient
that he did not know the nature or qual
ity of his act or that the act was wrong.
The request for An adjournment until
Monday, made upon the opening of
court, was granted by Justice Dowling.
Finish Trial Next AVeek.
Mr. Littleton promised to have the long
hvDothetical Question ready immediately
after his few remaining witnesses of fact
have testified on Monday and, unless Mr.
Jerome's cross-examination of the ex
perts is unexpectedly long, the defense
will rest on Monday. The prosecution
will proceed on Tuesday with its rebuttal
case and should not occupy more than a
day and a half. The sur-rebuttal by the
defense will be brief and, in spite of to
day's delay the case should end by Friday
or Saturday of next weeK.
One of Jerome's Little Tricks.
District Attorney Jerome said he would
not oppose the adjournment providing
Mr. Littleton would furnish him tne
names of the witnesses who are arriving.
Mr. Littleton objected, but Justice Dowl
ing said the request was reasonable.
Mr. Littleton said it had been his ex
perience that whenever the District At
torney knew of the arrival of any wit
nesses, he had his people meet them with
subpenas and subjected them, to a long
examination.
"I do not Intend," he added, "that he
shall know my case before It Is pre
sented here in court.
After some hot discussion, Mr. Jerome
waived the point. Mr. Littleton said the
defense undoubtedly will conclude its case
Mjonday.
with a fee of $10 was adopted at the be
ginning of the afternoon session. Resolu
tions expressing sympathy with H. W.
Campbell, of Lincoln, Neb., In his 111-
ness. and endorsing dry farming insti
tutes, were adopted. A resolution chang
ing the name of the organization to "The
Arid Fanning Congress" was presented
and referred.
In conflict with the theory expressed
yesterday that dry farming could not be
successful on a farm of 160 acres was
the opinion given today by I. H. Grace, a
practical farmer of Juab County, Utah.
The average man with four horses, he
said, can handle 80 acres a season, leaving
the other 80 fallow. The exceptional man
may cultivate 100 acres properly and
therefore needs a farm of 200 acres.
Giving data from his experience, Mr.
Grace said the average cost of producing
a wheat crop on his dry land was $6,085
an acre, or 27 cents a bushel. Hauling
water for stock adds 20 per cent to the
cost of dry farming, hence wells ate of
the greatest value.
Professor J. C. Hogenson, agronomist of
the Utah Agricultural College, was the
other speaker of the afternoon.

the matter of fixing the date of Ruef's
trial until next Tuesday morning.
Keane announced that Henry Ach had

was now engaged in a case in Los
Angeles which would occupy his time for
several days.
District Attorney Langdon personally
represented his office and offered no ob
jection to the continuance.
Judge Lawlor, at Langdon's instance,
ordered that a bench warrant issue for
Alexander Lathan, when that witness
failed to answer when his name was
called in court and fixed his bail at $2000.

eral counsel, $50,000 of the alleged bribe
money for the passage of the trolley

important witnesses and disappeared
shortly before the first trial of Ford. He
returned voluntarily about 10 days ago,
and at the request of the prosecution,
was placed under the order of the court.
Abraham Ruef and ex-Mayor Schmitz
were the only defendants in the gas brib
ery cases who were present in Judge

Halsey's attorney stated that his client
was still too feeble to stand trial, and
his statement was confirmed by the tes
timony of Dr. J. C. Morrison. Judge
Dunne then ordered & continuance of two
weeks.
DIAMOND-MAKER A FRAUD
MAX SATS HE BOUGHT ALLEGED
ARTIFICIAL GEMS.
Surprising Tnrn to Pretended Dis
covery Stones Identified by
Their Former Owner.
PARIS. Jan. 24. There was a sensa
tional development tonight in the case
of Henri Lemoine, the 'diamond-maker,"
which was being heard before an exam
ining magistrate. M. de Haan. a dia
mond merchant, testified that several of
the diamonds which Lemoine gave to Sir
Julius Wernher, of the De Beers Min
ing Company, alleging them to have been
manufactured, had been sold to Mme.
Lemoine by De Haan. The witness easily
selected these stones from a lot that were
produced in court tonight.
Another merchant who Is said to have
sold diamonds to Mme. Lemoine will be
called tomorrow to examine the Wernher
stones.
Immediately after the disclosure, tonight
the president of the Jewelers' Association
of France lodged a complaint of fraud
against Lemoine.
RUSSIA THINKS WAR NEAR
Newspaper Prints Various Articles
on the Situation.
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 24. The rela
tions between the United States and
Japan are receiving considerable atten
tion. Several St Petersburg newspapers
published recently two or three series of
articles which express the opinion that
war between those two countries Is cer
tain to come. The writers, however.
show little familiarity with political con
ditions In the United States and the pres
ent status of the negotiations between
that country and Japan.
A writer In the Russ, who recently an
nounced the cession of Nakotah Bay, on
the Siberian Coast, to the United States,
to be used as a base for the battleship
squadron under Rear-Admiral Evans,
follows this statement with a series of
diplomatic relations concerning the ne
gotiations for a Russo-American offens
ive and defensive alliance.
He avers that the chief obstacle to the
conclusion of such a treaty is the naval
weakness of Russia and says that the
construction of a fleet of torpedo-boats
and fast cruisers would exert a favorable
influence on the negotiations. This is the
reason that Emperor Nicholas is so in
sistent upon an expansive naval pro
gramme. Ambassador Riddle, in interviews -published,
has done much to discredit ru
mors of this kind. He has pointed out
that the negotiations between Japan and
the United States are proceeding satis
factorily and are approaching a success
ful conclusion.
Did Not Oppose Army Budget.
PARIS, Jan. 24. The Japanese Am
bassador, Baron Kurino, has Issued a
statement denying that the recent resig
nations from the Japanese cabinet of the
Minister of Finance and the Minister of
Communications' were due to opposition
to the proposed military appropriation.
He declared that the only divergence
of views was between the two cabinet
officers themselves.

ONE of the greatest things Mr. Edison has
done is to produce in his -Phonograph an
entertainer ' which is as. much at home in the
cottage as in the palace, which is just as good
at rendering the latest popular song or a lively
waltz as it is in giving grand opera. It is the
popular entertainer in every sense of the word,
and its price, either cash down or on the weekly
payment plan, brings it within reach of all.
Hear it at your nearest dealer's or write to
us today for illustrated booklet about it.
February Records Out Today
THE way to get pleasure out of an Edison Phonograph is to
keep on using it. The Phonograph is new every time you put
a new Record in it. New Records are issued every month. All
the great popular hits, vocal and instrumental, and a certain
amount of classical music that never grows old, are issued every
month in Edison Gold Moulded Records. Here is the
list for February. Read it over, check off what you
like, and as soon as you can get to his store ask your
dealer to let you hear them.
