Mrs. Eddy's Financial Affairs Hum . mel's Statement Ruled Out Bill Aimed at Japanese Train Thrown Into Ditch Jamestown Exposition Stamps. A bill in equity to obtain an ac counting of the financial affairs oi Mrs. Mary Baker Glover Eddy, head of the Christian Science church, whs filed in the superior court fot Merrlinac county at Concord, N. H., by Mrs. Eddy's son, George W. Glover ol JDeadwood, S. D., and bis daughter, Miss Mary Baker Glover, and George W. Baker of Bangor, Me., nephew and "next friend" of Mrs. Eddy. The bill is directed against Alfred Farlow and other trustees of the Chris tian Science church In Boston, and Calvin A. Frye, Mrs. Eddy's secretary; Lewis C. Strang, her assistant secre tary, and Herman S. Herring, first reader of the church In Concord. Besides demanding an accounting oi oil transactions relative to Mrs. Eddy's affairs, the bill asks for resti tution in case any wrong doing ap pears; for an injunction during litiga tion against interference with her property and business, and for a re ceiver. In a statement issued last week by former United States Senator William E. Chandler, a special counsel in the action, it Is declared that Mr. Glover is uctuated by no spirit of disrespect to bis mother, but believes that the pro ceeding is lu her real Interest. Mr. Glover says that the action is not di rected against the religion of the Christian Scientists. The statement further declares that Mr. Glover had long thought that his mother was growing too feeble In body and mind to attend to Important busi ness matters, but that for a long tlmo he was unable to confirm this sus picion, because those Immediately about her seemed unwilling to allow even her nearest relatives to have an interview long enough to reveal her actual condition. Early tn January, however, it is stated. Mr. Glover, while on a visit to' Concord, was enabled to talk to his mother for three-quarters of an hour. As a result, after due consideration, he decided upon the present action "as an imperative duty too long ne glected." The action is returnable at the April term of the Merrlmac county superior court, which will begin April 2. Bill Aimed at Japanese. The lower house of the state legis lature o California passed a meas ure last week known as the "anti alien property holding bill." It , is aimed at the Japanese and ' Chinese property owners tn the state, and Is Intended to. prevent them froniacoulr lng and owning property for a longer period than five years. In urging the passage of the bill Assemblyman Drew said that since January 1 one-third of the property transfers In Fresno has been to Japanese. The bill provides that any alien who does not become a citizen of the Uni ted States shall not hold title to lands in this state for more than five years. If within that time the alien does not become a citizen the district attorney shall compel the sale of his lands or houses. Japanese and Chinese are not specifically named, but as they can not become citizens the bill precludes them from owning property for more than five years. The impression is given out that If the bill reaches the governor he will sign it. Entire Train Thrown Into Ditch.

DEFENSENEARINGCLOSE Cross-Examination of Insanity Experts Finished. Dr. Evans Protected the Interests ol the Defense and Appeared a Match For the District Attorney Thaw Had an Insane Knowledge of What He Was Doing. New York, March 5. A long stride forward In the trial of Harry K. Thaw was taken when District Attorney Jer Dine announced the conclusion of bis exhaustive cross-examination of Dr. Britton D. Evans, one of the alienists for the defense. Dr. Evans had been on the stand each session since Wed nesday last. He was immediately succeeded on the stand by Dr. Wagner of Bingham ton, N. Y., who accompanied him on most of his visits to Thaw In the Tombs. Mr. Jerome indicated by his questioning of Dr. Wagner that he may finish with the witness today. Mrs. William Thaw, it Is expected, will be the next person in the witness chair. She may be sworn either late today or early Wednesday. With Mrs. Thaw's testimony In, the defense will practically have completed its case, and It seems likely that the state's case in rebuttal may be begun before the end of the week. What District Attorney Jerome will be able to prove on rebuttal remains quite as much a mystery aa ever. He complained, in seeking a broad inter pretation of the rules of evidence by Justice Fitzgerald, that if he should call any of the defense's alienists in rebuttal, they might refuse on the ground of professional privilege to an swer any questions put to them. Dr. Hamilton May Not Testify. This seema to indicate that Mr. Jerome's threat to call Dr. Allan Mo Lane Hamilton In rebuttal carries with it the possibility that Dr. Hamil ton may not testify, for at the time he examined Thaw in the Tombs he was In the employ of the prisoner's coun sel. It Is not yet exactly clear to the lay mind to what extent the district attor ney can go in disproving Mrs. Evelyn Nesblt Thaw's testimony. He has ad mitted that even If he could prove that Stanford White was out of the country at the time of the alleged ex perience of Evelyn Nesblt In the 24th street studio he would not be allowed to do so on the ground that it would be a collateral fact. It appears, however, that the prose cutor can call upon any one to contra dict Mrs. Thaw in instances where she said she made certain statements to a third party. On this principle, Mr. Jerome has indicated that he will call Howard Nesblt to testify that his sis ter told him Thaw treated her cruelly because she would not tell lies about Stanford White. Had an Insane Knowledge. Dr. Evans left the witness stand subject to recall for re-direct and re-cross-examination, but he may not be called for either. He protected the in terests of the defense quite keenly throughout his cross-examination and at all times appeared a match for the district attorney, who displayed so much expert medical knowledge during his famous grilling of Dr. Wiley, the Pittsburg alienist. Dr. Evans admitted that Thaw had an insane knowledge of what he was doing on Madison Square Roof Gar den the night he shot and killed Stan ford White. The New York statutes prescribe that to be exempt from pun ishment for crime an insane person must have been so demented as not to know the nature or quality of his act or to know that the act is wrong. In explaining Thaw's actions subse quent to the shooting his quiet de meanor, his directions as to what should be done with his wife and who should be sent for Dr. Evans declared that as soon as the defendant shot Stanford White the"brain storm" sub sided and his senses began to reor ganize themselves so that the man knew quite well what he was about. He also knew he was attacking Stan ford White when he shot the revol ver. Dr. Evans admitted, but the knowledge was that of an Insane mar and the act was the result of insane reasoning. . Dr. Wagner also declared that Thaw bad Irrational knowledge of what was transpiring on the roof garden. He be lieved the prisoner's Insanity dated from the time Evelyn Nesblt told him ler story in Paris in 190:!. Dr. Wagner caused quite a stir In court by. using the present tense in responding to a question by District Attorney Jerome as what form of in sanity Thaw "has or had." ' Dr. Wag ner testified that Thaw "is suffering" from symptoms which lead toward a melancholic state and a state of de mentia praecox. When asked to de scribe the latter phraso Dr. Wagner said it covered such a wide Held as to be difficult of strict definition. Ho said that Thaw's condition of mind at the time of the shooting was the re sult of one of the Insanities of adoles cence. He would not further classify the exact forrh. The district attorney continued his somewhat puzzling tactics. His ques tioning of Dr. Evans seemed to have the purpose of showing that Thaw never was insane to the extent con templated by the criminal statutes of this Btate. Again, with Dr. Wagner as the witness, he worked toward the same end at one time and at another toward having Dr. Wagner admit that Thaw wag suffering from forms of in sanity which mlrht not be curable. CONGRE38 APPROPRIATIONS. Increase For 1903 Over Current Year is $40,000,000. . Washington, Mauh 5. Statements were 'made to the senate and house by Senator Allison and Representative Tawney, chairman respectively of the senate and house appropriations com mittees, and by Representative Living ston, the ranking minority member oi the house committee, regarding the ap propriations which have been made during the session. The total pppropriatlons aggregate $919,948,670, of which $750,C22,674 Is for the annual expenditures of the gov ernment for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1908. The balance of the grand total is to be used as follows: $12,449,683 for emergencies and de ficiencies on account of the fiscal year 1907 and prior years; $1,000,000 for miscellaneous objects, such as private claims and the like, authorized In spec ial acts, and $149,880,320 for perma nent annual appropriations to meet the Interest charge on the public debt, the requirements of the sinking fund, ex penses of collecting the revenue from customs, redemption of national bank notes and. other purposes. The rev enues of the government for 1908 are estimated at $850,000,000, which, it was stated, would leave a surplus of $20, 000,000, and not a deficit as had been predicted in some quarters. During the 59th congress as a whole It was stated that $198,000,000 was ap propriated In excess of the total for the 58th congress. Analyzing the Increased appropria tions for the year 1908, over the cur rent fiscal year, the total of which Is given as $40,000,000, the increases are distributed in part as follows: For the army $0,700,000, fortifica tions $1,800,000, legislative, executive and judicials $2,400,000, postal service $20,000,000, pensions $3,000,000. It wass tated that while the river and harbor bill carried approximately $83,000,000, the expenditure under It would be but $27,000,000 during 1907. The appropriation on account of the Panama canal during the 59th con gress was increased over that during the 58th by $69,500,000. During the same time the postal expenses in creased $50,000,000.

Enftllnli Trnlim on Tim. Tho public service rendered by the- British railway lines, the convenience to the traveler and the shipper, is far in excess of anything to be found In this country. The British Isles are ab surdly small when compared with our vast ureas, and this of course simplifies the operating problems. There are uo snowdrifts to delay schedules, no sec tions of crudely built track awaiting perfection, and the locomotives are never far from their home shops. Yet even with allowance for these advan tages both freight and passenger traffic lire habitually handled with n regular ity and certainty that deserve the high- l-irt degree of praise. In any large terminal in England the number of passenger trains that arrive either ex actly on Jline or a minute or two ahead Is far greater llian that of trains even the least bvenltie. Five minutes is usu ally n safe margin for nn Important connection. At l-'insbury Park, a sub urban station Just outside London, trains pass on an nverage of one every two minutes night and day, yet this tremendous trallle Is handled with doeklike precision.
