And tha other paovlalon oataellwhlws a. trust fund of 171,009 for tha benefit of White' a other girl victims shows t clearly that tba atory Evelyn Neablt ' had told the young millionaire was aver ' before hla mind. That ha expected White- speedily to encompass his death ' is indicated In the provision for the ' education of Howard Nesbit. who was . -then verging on early manhood. -- Incidentally the Indelicate prominence which young Neablt la giving himself " at tba trial of his brother-in-law stands out all tha mora boldly In view of this i provision of Thaw's wllL Toung Nesbit 1 today berated tha newspapers for tailing ) how ha amlled over the story his sister told on the witness stand and expressed Ms Indignation At tba publication of tha fact that ha had used hla Influence with . court Officers to pass Into tha trjal chamber friends who were eager to hear his sister tell her story of disgrace. " ' Baa Faith la White." " ',T 7 j . "My sister's statements," said the . i young man, "do not shake my faith In Stanford White.

At the district at torney's office today I learned that thet quite frankly admit that the wlu.

NCr.- V.. -a . - hi i , ; Harry K. Thaw. ' long aa two years ago; the will show how the story that Evelyn Nesbit told Thaw preyed upon his mind, how he gathered other facts concerning White's acta and msde them fehe basis of a pro vision in hla will, and how, from the "rambling manner In which ha wrote the will,. -his reason was undoubtedly totter ing at tha time If was drawn. Supple mented by .the letters of Thaw, which have' already been entered In court, the cumulative evidence of Thaw's insanity, aside and apart from the story told by Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, would be pow erful enough standing alone to carry the conviction of Thaw's madness. The proof of the js-Ul wllL probably occupy tha first -attention of the oourt when the trial Is resumed on Mondsy. After that the defense may act on the suggestion ot Jerome and. present aetl nlte evidence of the Insanity of tha de fendant st tha time tha crime wae com mitted. This la .not -certain yet. how ever, and will not ba until coansel have consulted upon these points. . . Cvoss-gxamlnatloa of gvalya. ' What every one la looking forward to now Is Jerome s cross-examination of Evelyn Neablt Thaw. Opinion differs as to whether it wHl be severe or light As mat tare stsnd. tha district attorney muat connne Ms cross-examination to two points did she tell this tremen dous story of the human passions to Harry Thaw, and is her testimony to be believed ? ; This leaves him ' free, however, to make a most searching Inquiry Into every detail of the young wife's career. He can force her to reveal all If, in deed she baa left anything untold. ' But he la beset by sll sorts of dan- vere gruelling he may create sympathy for her in the Jury box. He may bring eat even mors atrongly the story which she haa already told. And a few fscts concerning ths - cross examination era constantly .to be home In minf , He cannot contradict, xor instance, young airs, inaw-s story or the liummel In eident, for by the records of he court Jerome himself has already, aecured ths conviction ef Hummel on a charge of conspiracy In which the events were precisely similar to those already tesU nea to oy maws . wire. Again. Mra Thaw haa discounted the value of any testimony which "Jack" Barry more mignt give even ir it could be conceived that Barrymore would take ths witness stand la tha case. . Xslf) Out Defense. Finally even if It were possible for Mr. jerome on cross-sxamlnatlon to prove Evelyn Nesbit Thaw to be ths worst woman In ths world, he would In submitting that proof merely be strengthening the case of the defense. The dlstrscted young woman has testi fied that she told her story to Thaw that she Jald before htm the fact that Stanford Whlta encompasaed her ruin. tThat, aay tha attorneya for tha defenae. wxa xne earns ror ins insanity which reauitea in ins snooting of Whlta Therefore if Mr. Jerome should try to make ths jury believe that Evelyn Nes bit Thaw was worse than' she appears to do, an me mora reason, Deimaa could argue why Harry Thaw "should hava gone crasy, and in his Insane condition shoot White White being, according to Mrs. Thaw's atory which Thaw believed. the man was primarily responsible for his wife's downfall. Aa the matter stands, ths defense could not be In bet ter position, , There -wss a revival yesterday of talk that Thaw hlmaelf will take tha atand to corroborate his wife. In An extreme emergency he may. But his lawyers at present are determined upon a differ ent course. They do not believe that It will be necessary to expose tha defend ant to that ordeal. Thaw Kay 0e ea Stand. He might tell of the effect hla wife's story had upon him. -of his growing conviction that . the death of . Stanford White wss desirable, of the visions which came to him. the voices which rung in his ears commanding him. to kill Whits, and -ot the Irresistible feel ing whleh swept ever him the night of June i6. when he eaw Whlta on Madi son Square roof garden, to shoot the man snd rid the world of his presence. All that would hava a powerful effect anon the Jury, but the defense at pres ent do' not believe that it will be neo senary. These lawyers, " who, slnoe Delmas took held, have been working like a piece of well-oiled machinery, ara con fident that they Dave their esse welt la hand ae It stands, and thsy do not propose to snake one move' that will hamper or endanger It or postpone the a minute longer than la abaolutely neo esaary. See the unity of belief and the confidence that they display: Selaaaa Satisfied. - ' ' . ' Ieltnas said today: "I could not wlaU for more than wa have gained. ; I am confident that the men of this ' Jury - will forsver stamp taeh characters ae White with tbelr condemnation, and in so doing, will ex- I onerats Harry Thaw, He did as anyone would hava dons after hearing . that awful story. An acquittal and a speedy one Is what I look for." And McPIke:- ...... "I do not . belleye that there are It men- 4n UUa whole land of ours that would convict a" man who acted as Thaw did.- He most aasuredly acted aa the protector of the woman he loved." Oleason: - "Everything is One We ars all pleased and look for an acquittal." O'Reilly and Peabody Join the same sentiments. Thaw haa been infused with similar confidence and it la but a simple statement of , fact to say that since the publication of tha letters of Thaw and the introduction of Mrs. Thaw's pitiful story, "the production At the will and the damnable news tnat White " pursued Evelyn Neablt Thaw after her marriage, there haa bean a marked revulsion of feeling in favor et Thaw.- . : : In this connection, however,' It Is "a Strang fact that women generally have sympathy for neither Thaw .nor his wife. It is on the part of the men that aympsthy for the wuman and Justifica tion for the man finds expression. How-' eves, ths case will finally be decided by a jury of It men. - fc ai aaaaaaaaaisal T- J a I.

Mr. Van Dusen says no other hatchery In the stats has been so successful ss that on the McKenale and as the fish Industry in the state Is ons of the most Important he thinks there is little doubt other hatcheries will bs put in on that stream. The water of tha McKenale is pure and cold and Is especially adapted to tho hatching and propagation of tha young salmon. FRUIT MEN MOVE 4 ON TOWARD UNION Eugene, Or., Feb. t.

BOURNE SILENT ON 1-f - COURSE HE WILL PURSUE Two Senators Mar Conflict Over Re appointment Which Mar Settle Relations of Both With Each "Other In Fata rev. rWaeBlng tos Boreas at Ths ' JoaiBst.r- 'Washington, Feb. . AU Interested partlea agree that for the present the W. C. Bristol controversy la settled. But it ia by no means certain that the case will not be opened again with the convening of the first session ef the sixtieth congress next December. In deed, this appears to be tha mora prob able thing, and It may "bs that it will be determinative of the relations which will exist between Senator Fulton and Senator Bourne. Ae a matter of course, the senator and senator-elect are on the best of terms. . Personally, thsy will re main ao. But. . when, the "'December assembling Of congress comes, ths Bristol matter may assume phases whloh will bring the two members of the upper house Into eonfllot. Senator Fulton, so his friends understand, feela that he cannot consistently consent to the permanent establishment ef Mr. Bristol In the office ef federal attorney for Oregon. Because of tbe pendency ef the lend frand casee, snd at the peraonal request of senator-elect Bourne, Mr. Fulton agreed temporarily to the plan that the full Judiciary committee make no - re port on the ' subject, notwithstanding the sub-committee bad reported ad versely. President Roosevelt, than, wilt make another recess appointment, after adjournment ' ot congress, which is rulable In the absence of an adverse report by the full committee. If, in December, the land fraud cases shall have been carried well on to comple tion, the entire Issue will arise again, with consequences now subject only to conjecture. ., That Senator-elect Bourne's hand has been already reached forth ta touch thin and ether matters of lesser import ap pears to be well understood here. He has maintained a discreet attitude, re fusing all public expressions or acts likely to endanger hla standing by pre mature activity, but haa Informed him self on ' sll matters which ' later will come under, ths purview of his official duties.
