Concerning the Celebrated Case.
(Ity THEODORE H. TILLER.)
(Hy Leased Wire to The Times.)
"Washington, D. C, Nov. 16. When
the defense begins the introduction of
testimony when the trial of Mrs. An
nie M. Bradley is resumed Monday
morning, the day is to usher in a week
that will be fraught with sensational
developments besides which the reve
lations brought out by the govern
ment's witnesses during the past week
will . bo .instgnifleant so far as tragic
details are concerned.'
Before the end of the week Mrs.
Bradley 'herself is to go upon the
stand and tell of her mud infatuation
for Senator Drown, her. relations, with
him through all the years when she
claims she besought him to give his
name to their two children and finally
of the moment when she could with
stand the strain no longer and sle v
him to avenge their honor.
Judge Powers said this morning that
the early part of the .week would prob
ably be consumed In hearing testimony
of newspaper men and policemen of
Washington, who will testify to Mrs.
Hradley's dazed and unnatural ap
pearance immediately after the trag
edy in the Raleigh. Another develop
ment of the week Is to be the pro
pounding: of a hypothetical question
which will perhaps exceed in length
that employed In the noted Thaw trial.
Thly question, it is understood, will
not bo used until near -the end of the
trial, when It is planned to put upon
tho stand on or more insanity experts
for the purpose of establishing Mrs.
Bradley's irresponsibility at the time
she fired the fatal shots. Judge Pow
ers said that as yet the defense hud
not selected these medical experts. It
is understood that in event such testi
mony should be introduced by the de
fense the government will Introduce
experts In rebuttal mostly like Drs.
Jelllfte and Brush of New York, used
by District Attorney Baker on a num
ber of other similar occasions.
Following the testimony of the sev
eral newspaper men who have been
called by the defense, one of the im
portant witnesses of tho enrly week
is to be Judge Henderson of Salt Luke
City, for many years a law partner
of Senator Brown. Judge Henderson
is understood to bo thoroughly famil
iar with the relations between the sen
ator and Mrs. Bradley, and It is not
disputed and generally accepted n
Salt Lake that the partnership be
tween tho two men was dissolved on
account of what Judge Henderson
terms his partner's "complications."
There is a mass of documentary evi
dence held in reserve by the defense,
perhaps the most important bit of
which is that contained on a single
sheet of paper bearing the business
heading of "Arthur Brown, attorney
at law, Salt Lako City" with the fol
lowing words written in a mlserabla
scrawl which the defense says will bo
identified as Brown's handwriting:
,"I acknowledge that Arthur Brown,
Jr., and Montgomery Brown are my
children by Mrs. Annie M. Bradley,
(Signed) "ARTHUR SHOWN."
Owing to the fact that Brown repud
iated the children in his will It Is ex
pected that this little scrap of writing,
obtained perhaps upon one of Mrs.

STILL HARPING
ON ROOSEVELT
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Chicago, Nov, 1G. Charging the
national administration with "play
ing the game of politics" and "work
ing for public applause," W. M. Col
vin, president of the Chicago stock
exchange last evening placed the re
sponsibility for the present financial
troubles upon the shoulders .of Presi
dent Roosevelt.
Mr. Colvin's address which was
delivered at . the Fellowship dinner
of the Fort Dearborn Club, bristled
with sarcasm. His language ranged
from the extremes of ridicule to vit
riolic denunciation. -
He concluded with this comment:
"No shadow has fallen across the
reputation of our president for hon
esty of motive. But no improve
ment will be permanent under an
administration policy, the most char
itable excuse for which is Igno
rance." All the trouble, however, was not
credited to the president's policies.
Mr. Colvin blames the rich and
the near-rich for extravagance,
which he believed, played its part In
bringing on the financial troubles.
WATTERSUN TALKS
ABOUT W. J. BRYAN
Boone, Iowa, Nov. 1 6. Colonel
Henry Watterson, asked today for
his opinion on William J. Bryan's
tentative acceptance of the demo
cratic presidential nomlniftion, de
clared that he had labored with
Bryan to have him decline the nomi
nation and to quit his "dog in the
manger" attitude. Colonel Wutter
son realized that Bryan had it lu his
power to demand tho leadership of
the democratic party in 1908 "or do
feat any other candidate by knifing
him as ho did Parker."
Bryan's acceptance was no more
than he had expected, however
greatly he regretted the action, bo
cause he thought Bryan could no
longer create enthusiasm, as he had
been before the people too many
times.

FOR DECENCY'S SAKE
OFF AGAIN. - PHEW!
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. IG Another
sensation was sprung In the Hartje
divorce case, when attorneys for Au
gustus Ilartje, the millionaire paper
manufacturer,- filed additional pa
pers with the supreme court of Penn
sylvania asking that the notorious
divorce case against Mrs. Mary Scott
Hartje.be re-opened.
The papers were filed in Philadel
phia and include what is purported
to be a letter written by the beauti
ful wife of Hartje to the mother of
Tom Marline, her coachman, in Ire
land; also tho copy of an interesting
letter, said to have been written by
Madine to his mother, asking the re
turn of letters and papers of note In
this case.
In an interview, Mrs. Ilartje de
clares the letters to be "the worst
forgeries yet," and declares she will
have no difficulty in proving that
she did not even know that Madine,
Mr. Hartje's coachman, had a moth
er. Yesterday Mrs. Ilartje was noti
fied that these letters would be filed
and she spent tho day with her at
torneys preparing a reply. Mrs.
Hartje laughed aloud when told by
her attorneys that the original let
ters to Mrs, Madine would not. fit the
envelope which lias been submitted
to the superior court.
"That husband of mine and his
attorneys are becoming quite crude,"
she says.
