Senator Graham thought it might be best to refer the bill to the iudlolary : committee and he would ask that It b? mode a special order for next Thuri Mr. "Webb thought It ought to go to the railroad committee, and on a divis ion tbs ote stood 14 to 13 m favor of the railroad committee and the vbill -. was so refcrred.,'--if,:,1-". .

Four witnesse:-, testified al tile morning aession at thj trial of James and Philip Strother jointly charged with tho murder of William F. Uywaters, their brother-in-law, on the night of 1) : ember 1 "i last when tho cir cuit court was convened by Judge Harrison today. iiev. V. .1. Ware, the minister who married Viola Stroth ; and Bywaters an hour before t !i tragedy, was the most inter .'rlins witness (f the four. Questioned by Commonwealth's At torney Keith ami Captain Micnjah Wood, his associate, Rev. Ware de se.rilrjd in detail the arrangements for the marriagj on the day of the shooting made with Philip Strother, one of the defendants. He said that the servide was read by him while the young bride lay ill in her b?d. Mrs. Bywators, he stated, cried con tinually durinn; tho ceremony, while Bywaters was composed and answer ed the minister's questions in a clear, firm voice. Both of the defendants, Rtjv. Ware said, were in tho room during the ceremony and were en tirely solicitous for their sister. Rev. Ware stated that James -Strother and Bywaters shook hands after the care mony had been solemnized, and ap- Strother, he said, insisted on giving his sister away in marriage, Btating that he wanted that part of the cere mony Included. The Dying ISitlegrooni. J. G. Lemon, the next witness, re hearsed the scene at the Strother home after tho fatal shots had been fired. He arrived there, he stated, within a few minutes after the shooting and found Bywaters on the roof just outside the room where the two brothers had first begun firing. Bywaters, he said, appeared to be dying, but managsd to drink some whiskey which Lemon procured from one of the Strother brothers. Lemon stated that young Mrs.. Bywaters was on her bed crying piteously. She called her brother "Jim" and asked him to forgive her for lying about her condition. During the recital of Lemon's tes timony, James Strother was com pletely overcome. He showed great emotion, and tears streamed down his face as he heard the story of the tragedy re-enacted. Deputy Sheriff J. F. Bowersett and L. B. Crump, one of the Strother neighbors, were the other two wit nesses. Mr. Crump statjd that Philip Strother told him that he had killed Bywaters because Bywaters had ruined his sister. Both brothers, Crump stated, told him that they had tired the shot. This afternoon the jurymen visit ed the Strother home, "Rother wood," four miles from Culpepper, where they examined the premises surrounding the tragedy. Mrs. Viola Bywaters, the doad man's wife of an hour, is expected to testify tomorrow probably for Ihj defense. Mrs. Bywaters has been ill since the night of the shooting, but is understood to be sufficiently well to appear in' court. Judge Har rison announced that the court room would be cleared while her testimony was being given. DECISION AS TO BIOS FOR BUILDING CANAL Washington, Feb. 26.

Evelyn Thaw's Cross Exam ination Over HUMMEL ON THE STAND He Was Temporarily Excused Sny decker Followed Him One Ques tion Was Asked of This Man, But oh This Was Not Permitted by the Court Hnydocker Was Excused. (By the Associated Press.) New York, Feb. 2(i. When the Thaw trial was resumed this morn ing District Attorney Jerome called the attention of Justice Fitzgerald to a letter he received from J. D. Lyon, vice president of the Union National Bank of Pittsburg, who was a wit ness two weeks ago. Mr. Lyon had custody of Thaw's will. He was requested by Mr. Je rome to send all of Harry Thaw's letters and papers he had in his pos session. Today the district attorney said he had received a letter from Mr. Lyon stating that Mr. Hartridge of the defense had written him say ing no letters or papers of date sub sequent to June 25, 1906, were de sired. Mr. Lyon asked that the court instruct him precisely as to what pa pers are desired. Mr. Jerome asked Justice Fitzger ald to make an order directing Mr. Lyon to ssnd all the papers. Mr. Hartridge rose to make the statement that before writing to Mr. Lyon that he did not want papers after the given date, he had a con versation with Mr. Jerome, and the latter said distinctly that he did not care, for the letters and papers after, date of June 25 last. vieTBfTlcraltoriiey now' satd he wanted all the letters the defense had abso lutely no objection and would so in struct Mr. Lyon. Hummel is Called. The matter of letters having been disposed of Mr. Jerome directed that Abraham H. Hummel, the lawyer who drew up the affidavit to which Evelyn Nesblt Is said to have sworn and which charged Thaw with cruel ties during their 1903 trip to Eu rope, take the stand. Hummel was sworn and took his seat In the witness chair. Mr. Jerome's first question was: "Do you know Evelyn Nesbit Thaw?" "Yes." "When did you first see her?" "Some time in 1901 or 1902." "Where?" "I don't remember exactly." "Was it at your office?" "Not the first time." "Yon knew her before that?" "Yes." "Did she go to your office on Oc tober 27, l'JO?" "She was there late in the year 190; I dou't remember just when." The Famous Affidavit. He was shown the photographic copy of the last page of tho famous affidavit, which Mr. Hummel said re freshed his memory so that he could stnte positively that the date on which Evc-'vii Nesblt Thaw called at his of fice was October 27. 190.1. Mr. Delmas objected several limes to the use of the photograph! but the court allowed th? questions. "Did Miss1 Nesblt have a conversa tion with you in your office?" asked Mr. Jerome. "Yes." "Did von dictate to a stenographer while she was present?" Mr. Dilmas again objected. "If I could prove Stanford White was in Kurope the night she says rhi was drugged by him." declared Mr. Je rome, "that would be a collateral fact and 1 would not be allowed to put in evidence. But if she told Thaw in Paris that there was no truth In her statement about Stanford White, ti-.?n that would be a material fact and I should be allowed to put It in." The affidavit contains the allegation thnt Thaw whipped Miss Noshlt when she told him there was not truth in the statement about White and refus ed to sign papers making the definite charge against the architect! Justice Fitfcgerakl overruled the ob jection and Mr. Hummel said h-.? did dictate a statement in the presence of Miss Nesbit. "On the next day," asked Mr. Je rome, "did Jacobson or Snydecker give lyou a paper?" "Yes." - ' ". . A ' document was shown the wltners and he- was asked if it was not a car bon copv of the paper referred ti. Mr. Dclmas objected and was sustain ed by the court . " ' ' (Continued on Page Five.)

When th In terstate commerce commission ;,-mk mimed its sitting today, Commis sioner Prouty was not present. Mr, Harriman entered tho'toom' and walked directly to the witness chair, Mr. Kellogg, with a bundle of docu ' meats in his hand, stepped to the : cleared space in front Of the witness and plunged directly into the exanuV"" nation. - Mr. Harriman testified yesterday that he did not know whether he 'hftdl ' an interest in the Laclede Construe-' lion Company, which had bul)t tha St. Paul, Peoria & Northern Railway, and when he took the stand this morning Mr. Kellogg produced a con-,-tract relating to the Chicago terminal showing that Harriman, George J. Gould, James Stillman and ' Jacob . Schiff were the owners of the- com-' pany. The witness said the doou-", ment was no doubt correct, and that . ' possibly he had acted in fixing the price of the road when it !was sold to the Alton. Mr. Kellogg also pro duced two original checks to show that Kuhn, Loeb & Co. had been man agers of the Alton syndicate, and the witness, who had been unable to re- -member yesterday, said that Kuhn! ' Loe(l & Co, undoubtedly had been the ,isyflcatemiOTagexai'ii3f tf?-: Nou-Di vidend-Paying Stockr. ,.. , After reciting a statement ot the Chicago & Alton Railroad showing the interest charges,' Mr. Kellogg asked the witness If he thought It was right to put upon the public the large Issue of common stock which never -would and never could pay a divi dend. . i "Did we ever tell the public It would pay a dividend?" asked Mr, Harriman, quietly. Mr. Kellogg asked what the total fixed charges of the Chicago ft Alton Railroad were. ' v Mr. Harriman scanned some papers he held, and proceeded to read the amounts, with frequent interruptions from Mr. Kellogg, and this led to sev eral brief colloquies. -C Mr. Kellogg was endeavoring to show the difference in the charges between the old company and the re organization, and, having done this he passed to the matter of the Chi cago & Alton Railroad Company's bond issue of 1889. Mr. Kellogg asked Mr. Harrlihan. if there was anything to show that the syndicate was in any way obll-, gated to take the bonds of the Alton before September, 1899. "Does any record of such obligation exist any where?" he asked. Did Not Head Reorganization. The witness knew of no such rec ord, but said he was certain the syn dicate members were bound to take bonds at 65. "You'll have to seek that information elsewhere, Mr. Kel- logg," he'said. : .'J , Mr. Kellogg continued the attack on the issue and sale of the Alton bonds, but the witness declined to be drawn very far. He said he was ab sent from the country during the summer of 1899, and did not arrange -any ot the details. He was sure that market conditions had all to do with the sale of the bonds at a high figure. -In reply to a question, Mr. Harriman denied that he was the head and front of readjustment or- reorganisa tion of the Chicago & Alton Railroad Company "I was only one- of ev- - eral," he said. - :.....tv4 r As chairman of the committed he' presumed that be might1 beivegarded as the head, but his responsibility t?6s no greater than that of hi associates. - As Mr. Kellogg paused t this point, Mr. Harriman suddenly asked: ' ' v "Are you -through with the Chicago & Alton?" , , . , 4 Mr. Kellogg said he was and the Wit ness said; '-;;.
