Mr. Isherwood spoke at length against the proposed move and as serted that It would compromise the dla-nity of the club to "gd over to a fish market." aa he designated the new bulldlna-. Mr. Lewis argued less upon the basis of sentiment and more. upon the basis of business. -I don't believe that the club should go back to a leasing system." he said, -and place Itself In the hands of pro moters who will not only collect rent from us. but also will gain the un earned Increment upon ourselves, for It la a fact that the Commercial Club puts the seal of a certain practical value upon any piece of property to which It goes." Ceateatloaa Are Opposed. W. P. Richardson asserted that It would be poor business policy to move Into larger quartera at the present time, saying that the Commercial Club could soon own the building It now oc cupied. Mr. Hyland. speaking from the standpoint of a pure business prop osition, took exactly the opposite posi tion to Mr. Richardson. , The passage of this resolution." said Mr. Hodson, In closing his argument in its support," does not mean that you command 'the Board of Governors to lease the new quarters that have been offered. It simply means that you leave It to the business judgment of your Board of Oovernora to do as they believe will be to the best advantage of the club." While sentiment of the few oppos ing members fas still making itself manifest In scattered calls from vari ous parts of the room, for the recog nition of the chair, president Beckwlth called upon Mr. Wilcox to give his opinion. Whatever Indecision may have existed in the assembly up to this time was clearly banished by the brief and decisive speech which followed. I believe that It is good to own your own home." said Mr. Wilcox. "I thought this when I favored the move ment of the club to the quarters It now occupies, four years ago." "You're right," chled a number of those who- had opposed Mr. Hodson s resolutions. Grewtk Chief Aim. "But I was wrong." continued Mr. Wilcox, whereupon a greater outburst of applause came from the supporting aide.

We have outgrown It In five years. "I don't care whether we live in our own house, or In some one else's house; the prime requisite is that the club should grow. This plan that has been offered did not appeal to me at first. It does not entirely appeal to me 'now, but I think It Is the best thing we can do at the present time. Because we lease this new bulldfhg for 15 years does not necessarily mean that we will live in It for 15 years. I certainly hope ' that we may outgrow it in four years. "Get those quarters." he said in clos- ' lng. "sell these, keep the club grow ing but don't lose sight of the Idea that we are one day going to own our own home. I believe that you will be doing good business to leave this In the hands of the Board of Governors." Majority Is Convincing. In the vote that Immediately fol lowed Mr. Wilcox' speech the majority t was distinctly large enough to sweep the opposition out of the qeld. Prior to the closing of the business session a resolution was passed ex pressing the sympathies of the club member for Dr. J. R. Wetherbee, who Is 111 In the hospital and expects to undergo an operation today. Hopes for his early recovery were expressed In the resolutions. After the close of the business ses sion, while the tellers were still wres tling with the count of the ballots, the clubmen adjourned to the dining-room, where a buffet lunch was served.

Nurse Champions "Dr." Haz zard; Fasting Methods Pro fessional, Say's Witness. DEFENSE OUT WITH PLEA Xo TTndne Influence Noted When Woman Physician Took Djins Maiden's Donation of $1000 to Sanitarium, Evidence Shows. SEATTLE. Wash, Jan. 27. That the fasting treatment, while undergoing which Miss Claire Williamson. a wealthy English woman, died at Olalla, and for whose death Mrs. Linda Burfleld Hazzard. a fasting specialist. Is now on trial In the Kitsap County Superior -...- . Port Orchard for murder, was professional and Involved no offense. Is the contention or ine oeicusn. un opened Its case today. Covering features of the treatment and the attitude of Mrs. Iiazzara toward the patient. Nellie Sherman.- a nurse, testified on direct examination that Mrs. fiaxzard always maintained an attitude of "love, kindness, tender ness and friendship" for the woman now dead. The testimony of Miss Sher man occupied nearly the entire day's session, and her cross-examination will commence with the opening of court Monday. Further strength In the testimony of Nurse Sherman existed in statements that at no time had Mrs. Hazzard re stricted .the quantitly of dietary broths to be provided, that the supplemental treatment of batha and massaging was not severe, that the patient refused solid foods after being urged to partake of the same by the defendant, even to chicken broth, and that attending sur roundings had been made as comforta ble as possible. Too Mock Food Feared. "We felt some time ago," said the witness, "that we were even giving t?.e patient too much food, considering that all of which she partook appeared to be Injurious." This 'testimony was contradictory to that previously given In behalf of the state. Miss Sherman said she was called to serve aa nurse for the Will iamson sisters by Mrs. Hazzard. She said she saw both wane in strength and flesh and assisted In transporting the patients from a Seattle apartment house to the retreat of Mrs. Hazzard. which is situated In a secluded point in an adjoining county. ' She denied that any other than her self had prepared or served the scant food rations, that baths had been ad ministered with the assltance of a man, and said that persons said by the state to be objectionable had not been brought In contact with the patients excepting at their instance and urging that physicians of a regular medical school were available In emergency with Mrs. Hazzard's consent Jim Undue Influence Seen. Miss Sherman testified to being pres ent when Claire Williamson was dictat ing diary entries in her book by Mrs. Hazzard when a power of attorney pre. sentlng the Hazzard sanitarium with $1000 waa drawn and when other finan cial transactions brought out by the prosecution were effected. In each In stance, she declared, no Influence had been exertd by the defendant. Of Miss Dorothea Williamson, the sis ter who survived the treatment. Miss Sherman testified that she was mentally unsound much of the time and had been able to assimilate a greater quantity of food than had Claire, who frequently said she had been Injured by using drugs during previous Illnesses and was determined to always have been a vegetarian. The testimony also brought out dec larations that Miss Williamson fre quently discussed endowing the Haz zard Institution with funds for more buildings. She said that Mrs. Hazzard was an unusually good cook and made the unfertnented bread which both pa tients liked so well. Miss Sherman had completed her di rect testimony at the sojournment. The defense desired to permit cross-examln. ation with a privilege of again resum ing the witness for direct-examination. This Irregularity the state refused to assent to, requiring an early ad journment. The defense today used five of the 67 witnesses who have been Judge Takey announced tonight-that next week night sessions would be called to expedite the case. The court further stated that his Inquiry Into al leged tampering wlthv witnesses had not brought results warranting action by him. but the Investigation Is being continued. 8 cattle Uadertaker Testifies. WlUiam Borthwlck, a Seattle under taker Deputy Coroner of King County, testified that after the death of Claire Williamson he took her body and a number of persons to Seattle in a launch. The body wae conveyed to the undertaker's establishment of the firm which employed him, and was held there four weeks awaiting the arrival of Margaret Conway, Claire's old nurse, from Australia. The body that Miss Conway saw was positively the one taken from the Olalla sanitarium In May, Borthwlck testified. On cross-examination It was brought out that the launch with the body did not leave from the Olalla wharf, not far from the Hazzard home, but from Finney Creek, three miles further away, Mrs. Hazzard saying It was more con venient to convey the body to Finney Creek. The body was not cremated, as at first Intended, because of the irregu larity In removing the body from one coanty to another without a permit The state had already fined the under taker 125 for the offense, and desired to avoid further difficulty. Borthwlck Knew of Salt. Borthwlck testified that he knew that Mrs. Hazzard and the undertaker were defendants in a civil suit for 125, 000 for desecrating the body of Claire Williamson. W. H. Anstead, master of the launch Virginia, which carried the William son sisters from Seattle to Kitsap County on the 22d of last April, testi fied that the landing was made at Finney Creek Instead of Olalla, on Mrs. Hazzard's orders, to save time, as she YOUR chance to buy fine goods for much less' than they're worth can't last.
