Rowland poisoning case today there - was fresh evidence of the strain upon ' Mi-it Rowland. As soon as she en tered court It could be seen. that she was paler, than heretofore, and 'very nervous, her lands twitching and she ' leaned repeatedly towards her sister. The reading of the deposition of Theo- dore Festner, her', brother, who 19 a ' Memphis letter carrier, was resumed, Next came a deposition of Mrs. C. A. Waldroin of , Portsmouth, with whom the St ran Res- boarded , while -. they lived there. - She said she knew practical Ty every illness of Strange. while he Was there and had heard hin talk about "being sick In Indiana and at Memphis. : She.: knew ' him from . September, 1908, did not jsee' Strange .take the medicine, but heard about it from some one else; thought Mrs. - Strange told hecaaid a man came to the house once who said he was Dr. Rowland, but it was not he. She . said he was met.by Mrs. Strange and both, women entertained him. ."She said she was almost certain Rowland did not go to see Mrs. Strange. Mrs. - Waldrom said her husband died of V heart disease and he took digitalis, and this was the reason why It alarm- . e'1 her when ghe heard that Strange ,; was taking it. , . The deposition of W..J. Joyner, a Portsmouth doctor was read. -He" stated that Strange got him to fill a prescription he" had secured la Mera phis, this being digitalis. Joyner knew: of" nothing that digitalis was - taken for . except as a"heart Titlmu- . lant. A ih ascription was filled May 30th last year, first and once after that - Fab Brown, undertaker here said he was sent for April 6th, the day ' Strange died,, went to the house to see about the preparations for the t burial.. When he arrived Mrs. Strange appeared to bo very much troubled. Something was said about embalming the body and 'it " was stated -that ' Strange had said he never wanted to be embalmed. It-was suggested that . the funeral be held Monday but Brown snld It had better be held on the fol lowing day. The body was like that of any other dead person. Upon cross " examination Brown Bald it was' about the middle of the day when he went to the house, Rowland having gone to his office,-and' told him Strange had Just died and that they wanted him to go to the house to make prepara tions for theb u rial.

" " Eoo8etPirT " Hasty Settlement of Basgla- , Japanese War Regarded as" Big Mistake. The ; - , - T- Peace of Enrope. '., D- .. London, October 4. Europe has be gun to take keen Interest in the send ing of the American fleet to the Pacl flo. The general public here, as else where, loves theatrical politics and. It looks to Kaiser Wllhehn and Presi dent Roosevelt as the world's chief entertainers ln this ' feature of - the game. -, . -. " ' . ; It sees - nothing In the proposed American naval, demonstration but a provocative move against Japan, and itwlll await Its outcome with lively Impatience. JTbe situation appears to to involve nothing beyond a quarrel between the United States and Japan, and it cannot be said today that Euro pean public sentiment Inclines to either side. : :. r ; Very different Indeed, -is the view taken by the chancelleries of Europe.i and especially by Downing Street European, statesmen regard the mat ter with, greater anxiety than any in ternational crisis of "recent years. . It is In their eyes by no means the sim ple problem It -appears to the man in the street- - - . Opinion agrees in this, that t the sending of the fleet, no matter with what peaceful protestations, is a- dis tinctly provocative move, and that the danger of untoward incidents ,whifch Intentlonajly or unintentionally might lead to war is immense. In a word, if the American armad 'goes to the far East, Europe will expect war to follow. : 'i ." . There are two divergent views' of the genesis and real purpose of Pi-esi dent Roosevelt's plana, which may be briefly Indicated. 'Those who believe In the existence of the yellow peril applaud Mr. Roosevelt's policy while they marvel at his tenacity in assum ing the risk ' of having an- enormous task thrust upon America for the ben efit of the white race at large. More over, they are pusxled by his present attitude when they remember that he was chiefly, responsible for the peace of Portsmouth. ; L : It is the general opinion of The dip lomatic world that the'premature set tlement of the Rubso-Japanese ?War was the greatest mistake In Mr. Rooee velt's career. ' Another year's cam paign would have brought ' freedom. within the grasp of the Russian peo ple, and so exhausted Japan that the yellow danger would, have been post poned to' the distant future. ' Those who believe it hi now immi nent share Mr. Roosevelt's reported conviction that the next crisis in hu man history will beji struggle in the Pacific and they hope that he will force the issue before Japan recovers from her last var. This view U wide ly held in Berlin. Russia shares "it, while she expects vindication of her military reputation' in the enormous difficulties any power will encounter which becomes embroiled with her late enemy. - v Another section of the diplomatic circle puts quite a different interpre tatlon upon the American policy. They suspect that there lies behind it a deep scheme to upset the recently re adjusted European situation. They find It easy to believe the current report that there Is a tacit or definite understanding that - the German fleet will be held ready to protect American Interests In the At lantic . . This would signify many things. It would be Kaiser Wllhelra's reply to all of King Edward's great diplomatic work of the past three years for safe guarding the peace of Europe. It might easily result in arraying the United States and Germany against England and Japan. The Kaiser tory of modern times. would by no means shrink from such an 'adventure, nor would he be hope less of other European a---.lKt.inru. The point is seriously ti'.-M-.u- :.' ia Lon don .whether, Indeed, the On n emperor Is not the real In:.;!,, itor of President RooM-velt's move.

Moment, were deeply grieved this morning at -' the news from his bedside., At one o' clock this morning he took a sudden turn tor the worse, and it was thought he would not live until daylight. His physicians then stated that death was only a question of hours. ; There has been a great strain upon his nervous system, and this gave way. J Up to yesterday there had always been more Or less hope, though it was recog nized that this attack waB very criti cal from the .beginning. !

The annual convention of this organization will be held at the capitol during the week of the State Fair. . ': This year, for the first time since the present fair grounds were occu pied, the Seaboard Air Line will not operate a train between the city and the grounds, . Heretofore the fare has been 10 cents by this line, and also on the street cars, but under the new law the corporation commission can' not allow a railway to. charge over 6 cents for the trip, and the road can not see profit enough in this to oper ate its cars. Then tob the tare on the street railway la reduced to Sets. much complaint having been made in the past by Raleigh people regarding the 10 cent charge, 6 cents being the usual rate. The, street railway will operate 28 cars between the city and the fair grounds and. IX possible, ar rangements will be made to have these operated by the loop system in the city, that system having already been arranged at the grounds, for the first time. By this plan there will be a cont'nual procession of cars and people can be handled very rapidly. there being a car for every 2 1-2 min utes. New cars are arriving from High Point where the company is having its new equipment construct ed. . . .

Though today in the trial of Dr, and Mrs. Rowland,, charged with pol soning Strange, the time was wholly given up to arguments by counsel yet there were almost as many peopl In the court house as on the the live' days of the work.

The fight to acquit and convict had been a great six days contest on each side.
