LIVELY WRANGLE AT HEARING
Lawyers and Judge-Advocate
Disagree About Courtesy.
CASE SUICIDE, SAYS COOK
Snrgeon Who Attended Sutton Is of
Opinion Young Marine Shot
Himself Ctley Recalled
for Brief Period.
ANNAPOLIS. Aug. . The reappear
ance on. the -witness-stand today of Mrs.
James N. Sutton, mother of Lieutenant
Button, of Portland. Or., whose death is
being investigated by the Naval Eoard of
Inquiry, wu the signal for heated con
troversy between the lawyers, which end
ed in a prolonged conference, and brought
the day's proceedings to an abrupt end.
Judge Advocate Leonard offered for
identification and to be read in evidence
several letters which he said Mrs. Sutton
had written, containing serious charges
against the officers of the Marine Corps
who appeared s defendants.
"As the United States has been put to
a large expense In bringing witnesses here
from all parts of the world," said Major
Leonard, "it becomes my painful duty to
offer these letters in evidence In order to
enlighten the court as fully as possible
on all matters pertaining to this inquiry."
Davis Makes Objection.
Henry E. Davis, counsel for Mrs. Sut
ton, objected on the ground that Mrs.
Sutton was not present, and that the let
ters in question were irrelevant to the in
quiry and of a personal and Incompetent
nature as evidence.
Tt fe Inconceivable that the Judge Ad
vocate should attempt to force Mrs. Sut
ton Into sucb a position before this Board
of Inquiry." said Mr. Davis. "These let
ters are not offered to assist this .court
In finding out how Lieutenant Sutton met
his death.. But that these letters, con
taining, perhaps, the extravagant state
ments of a mother with a stricken heart
over the death of her son should be read
before a curious world is Indeed unique
and cruel."
Major Leonard declared Mr. Davis had
misconstrued the Judge Advocate's posi
tion, and asked that the lawyer's re
marks implying bad faith on his part be
stricken from the record.
Reputations Sacred, Too.
"1 would have Mr. Davis remember," he
said, "that the hallowed grave of a dead
son Is no more sacred than the reputation
of a living officer, and there are many
such reputations at stake here."
The Judge Advocate said the court had
the right to inquire upon what grounds
Mrs. Stutton had made the statements in
the letters.
Mr. Blmey. counsel for Lieutenant
Adams, protested that Mrs. Sutton had
consistently tried to avoid her true posi
tion, and urged that the letters be read.
At this point Commander Hood, president
of the board, ordered the court closed, and
went into conference with his associates
and the Judge Advocate. Later, Com
mander Hood announced that the letters
would be read in closed court tomorrow
to the interested parties and their coun
sel. Surgeon Says Suicide.
Following the completion of Lieutenant
Vtley's cross-examination at the morning
session. Surgeon T. E. Cook was a wit
ness. He testified that he performed the
autopsy on Sutton's body, and declared
from the nature of the bullet wound It
would have been difficult for him to
shoot himself while holding the revolver
in the ordinary manner. He added, how
ever, that It was his belief that Sutton
committed suicide.
"Tou testified that you woke up Colonel
Royen that nljtht and told him Sutton had
committed suicide, didn't you?" asked Mr.
Davis on cross-examination of Lieutenant
I'tley.
That Is right." said the witness.
"What you meant was that you had
wen Sutton shoot himself either Intention
ally or accidentally, wasn't It?" asked Mr.
Da via.
"Yes. sir; not necessarily one or the
ether. That was my understanding." said
I'tley.
Lieutenant Vtley could not recall that
there were three men on top of Sutton at
the time he was shot. Besides himself,
ihere was one other man. m-hom he did
not recognize at the time, the witness
ald.
I'tley Is Recalled.
Lieutenant Harold H. Vtley wa re
called at the opening of today' session.
Henry E. Davis, counsel for Mrs. Sut
ton, continued his cross-examination.
Reading from the testimony of Willing.
Bevan and Sergeant Dehart. Mr. Davis
Prought out many things which they tes
:tfled that Lieutenant L'tley did and said
?n the night Sutton was shot, of which
the witness had no recollection.
"Did Dehart come to you after the
shooting and tell you some one had hand
ed him a revolver and he had thrown It
away, as he testified?" asked Mr. Davis.
"I do not remember any such con
versation." Lieutenant Utley replied.
"Didn't Dehart ask you the next morn
ing to tell him who had handed him

Cannery Workers Kept at Task Vn
tll They Fall Exhausted, When
Others Fill Places.
BHLLINOHAM. Aug. 6. 'Sockeye
salmon are running In a manner which
promises to surpass the record year of
1901. The waters of the gulf and Puget
Sound from the mouth of Fraser River
to the Pacific entrance to the Strait of
Fuca are alive with fish, and the decline
in the run which was feared yesterday
appearj to be many days distant. Last
night and this forenoon every cannery re
ceived all the fish that could .be packed
by operating night and day.
The pack can only be measured by the
endurance of the workers, the machines
never stopping as one worker drops from
weariness after spending 18 or 29 hours
on "the line," another takes his place
and every hour of the day or night sees
25.P00 sockeye salmon cleaned, packed,
cooked and sealed in tins.
Receipts at Belllngham, Anacortes and
Blaine for the 24 hours ending at 12
o'clock today, totaled 706,000 fish, and
many traps were not even lifted, the can
neries having all that could be taken
care of. It Is estimated that 760.000 sal
mon were in the traps before noon today.
The price of sockej-es has fallen and
trapmen, purse seiners and glll-netters are
now receiving but 20 cents.
WOMAN CAUGHT STEALING
Shoplifter Taken in Act at Meier &
Frank's Store.
Caught in the act of shoplifting in
Meier & Frank's last night Just as the
store was closing, Mrs. Anna Butler,
a comely young woman of 26, was ar
rested and taken to the City Jail by
Detective Snow, where she Is being
held under a charge of larceny. Three
shirt waists had been purloined from
the waist counter and a clerk who had
seen the woman pick a waist up fol
lowed her as she turned to walk away.
The woman evidently knew she was
being followed as she went directly to
the ladies' dressing-room and endeav
ored to throw the waists out of the
window. The value of the waists was
only $10. J. A. Gustafson appeared on
behalf of the store as complainant.
Little is known by the police about
Mrs. Butler. She has been living a
short time at the Hotel Romaine on
Second near Morrison street. She re
fuses to talk about her antecedents.

Complete destruction of the town of

become for a short time that an ap
peal was sent to Tacoma " for help.
The loss was confined to two dry

the path of the flames and enabled
the citizens to get the blaze under
control and to confine the loss to the
two kilns and part of their contents.

WHITE PLAINS. N. T., Aug. .
Harry K. Thaw's latest struggle to re
gain his freedom will end tomorrow.
The submission of testimony in his
hearing before Justice Mills closed to
day, and all that remains Is the final
arguments of the attorneys. Justice
Mills will file his decision with the
County Clerk Thursday, August 12.
Several possibilities confront Thaw.
The court may grant his plea and make
him absolutely free. It may decide
that he has not established his sanity,
in which case the state authorities will
probably send him back to Matteawan.
May Parole Thaw lu Custody.
But Justice Mills has further dis

Thaws mental condition is still in
doubt and foe that reason delay a final
order, meanwhile paroling Thsw in

by his mother. Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw.

District Attorney Jerome. Earlier in
the day. she had read a list of names
distinguished in New York society.
They were guests, she said, at a dinner
she gave In New York which Harry
attended before his marriage.
"I give the names of those who at
tended the dinner to my son," she said,
"because of the statements of Mr. Jer
ome regarding the company Harry was
accustomed to keep. I do not have any
especial enmity toward Mr. Jerome, but
he certainly has not behaved in this
matter in- a gentlemanly way nor In a
Christian way. Mr. Jerome always
talked about Harry's being a fre
quenter of the tenderloin when he
knows as well as any one that my boy
never went to the tenderloin until he
met a certain person."
Mrs. Thaw's testimony was frequent
