from Pennsvlvanla a great Republican State discourage or disconcert us now The nation is too great to be longer guided In Its national elections by that ancient fallacy which thrives on the thought

false notions In this country Let Pennsylvania lead in destroying this last and most absurd of them all With the splendid opportunity presented by the logic of the present situation defeat seems impossible and the fruit of the effort It seems to me must be the selection of our own faiorite son for the Presidency The mention Senator Knoxs name for the Presidency was greeted with a great outburst of applause and later In the evening other speakers present seconded the nomination Representative Kline the only Democrat In the delegation declared that if a Republican Is to be chosen as

attend the races and ie went there the following Wednesday The train was late ad they did not see the doctor until the next day That was Thanksgiving Day and the doctor refused to work on a holiday He finally per formed an operation with instruments The witness said that although she was suffering excruciating pain She had to walk from the hotel to the street car no carriage being provided After the last operation Bywaters took her to a restaurant on Pennsylvania ave nue about fifteen minutes walk from the doctors office She had nothing to eat there but Bywaters left her there for about an hour and a half while he went to look after some mall Mrs Bywaters testified to going back home wiere she met one of her brothers but did not tell him anything He later sooke to her about the matter

connectea wren tne trial ina in nouncement was received with disap i WMuufc uj UIQ U11UUS W4 many of whom had already crowded into the little courtroom Mrav Gaines proved an excellent witness though her testimony hardly carried the effect of that given by her sister during the earlier session Trace Tragedys Course Questioned by John I Jeffries for the defense Mrs Gaines told in a simple unaffected way of Bywaters first lntro ctlon into the Strothef home his af fectlon forTvlola and then of the clrcum stances leading ur to the tragedy at 3totherwood on the night of December 15 when while fleeing from the bedroom In which his bride of an hour lay 111 he was shot and killed by her enraged brothers There was no color or passion at the outset of her testimony but when she dwelt upon the illegal operation alleged to have been performed won Viola at the Insistence of Bywaters her bitterness against the dead man was apparent She declared repeatedly that her brothers did not entertain the remotest thought of killing Bywaters up to the time of the Do you think that any one anticipated the shooting of BywatersT asked Attorney Jeffries No I do not The answer wa quick and emphatic Mrs Gaines said that when charged wjth the betrayal of their sister By waters asserted his innocence as did pViola but later when confronted by the statment of a physician who was called to Rotherwood both broke down and confessed Ten thousand persons last night watched a fire which wrecked he carriage repository and repair shop of William Sau ter at 1625 street northwest and threatened destruction to residences and other buildings in that vicinity Mr Sauter estimated his loss at 4000 saying he carried insurance toione half tnat amount on his stock The building is the property of Mrs Honora Rundlett of 1816 Oregon aenue Fire Marshal Nicholson said last night the damage to the house probably would reach 5000 The fire started In the woodshop In tne rear of the second floor being caused it is believed by coals falling from a small stoe into shavings on the floor It had gained little headway when discovered but soon spread through the 150 feet of the building to the front and to both the floor above and the floor below In the buildln were carriages and vehicles of all kinds in addition to the equipment of tne estaDiianment ur tne J40C0 loss Mr Sauter said perhaps 1000 v8

crowd that looked on Included many who had attended the theaters and were on their way home Perhaps a hundred automobiles and carriages stopped on ad joining streets and in the cold crisp air on the sidewalks women in gorgeous opera capes and men in evening attire shivered while the firemen fought the flames Alley Houses Threatened On one side the Sauter establishment is joined by a frame building occupied by Kemp Kennedy contractors and on the other by a small residence Directly in front are tire stables of William Downey while in the alley In the rear are numerous small frame houses occupied by colored families Therevwas danger at all times that the fire would spread to these Once when it was thought the blaze had been practically subdued it broke out furloulv In the front part of the bulld ing puffing out the windows of both the first ani second floors catching several flremf on ladders who had been throw Ins water Into the windows of the third flou reaping up the side of

after passing through the fire lines smashed into the fire tower He escaped unhurt The street had just been cleared of spes tators but a score of firemen and police men were standing in the automobile path These narrowly escaped being hit Williams approached the crowd at ftill speed from Sixteenth street He blew his horn once Just as he approached the fire lines and then his machine went bouncing over the rows of hose on the street His approach was so sbdden that no one had time to cry a warning beforehe smashed into a rear wheel of the fire tower Hla speed bad been slowed down bybiltuLj some

Hicks a coioreu man was in eeriusly ill at 1637 street the house adjoining the repository when the latter place caught fire His family did not know of the fire until the department responded to the first alarm Hlckavwasl that they were going to kill Bywaters and that she pleaded for his life During that conversation her brother French said that he did rfor know that he wanted them to get married The witness says she again pleaded with her brothers and it was her pleading that saved Bywaters life Bvwaters said he would marry her but even then he wanted It put off He left about 5 oclock that evening the undertsanding being that the marriage should take place at a time to be designated by her brothers Saturday when he came he again asked for time and 3he joined in his reauest Why did you do that She was asked Because I felt that If he did not want to marry me he would not treat me right and would desert me After their marriage she said her brothers kissed her and shook Bywaters hand They told him of the hundreds of dollars theytjwould advance him anl said they would forget the past What did Bywaters say to their kind offer He said nothing Telephoned for Bywaters The witness then related how Bywaters had said he wanted to come to town to get outannouncement cards and tell his mother of the marriage Mrs Bywaters said that later she asked a servant to call Bywaters on the telephone Why did you call him 7 Because I thought that I would feel safer with blm In the room I felt that if i tnrrow he was there and saw my condition he would not be so apt to want to leave Her brother Philip came Into the room shortly after Bywaters came and later Airs Gaines came In Bywaters was seated near tho bed and she had one arm around his neck Her brother James who was In the room asked Bywaters what he Intended to do meaning if ha intended to leave but he received no response The witness testified that when Mrs Gaines cafrie into the room Bywaters pull Mans Indifference Maddened She declared that Bywaters Indifference to her sister maddened her and when he openly ridiculed Violas condition she turend on him declaring you are the lowest dog that cr lived Her i husband added WelL Bywaters you bave violated every obligation of an fdd Fellow and a man of he nor The sting carried by her husbands bitter denunciation of her sisters be trayal lira Gaines states almost provoked arf encounter between Bywaters and Mr Gaines which was only averted by Bywaters going to Violas bedroom While in actual witness to the shooting Mrs Gaines displayed but a hazy recollection of the words passed between Bywaters and her brothers in the bed room immediately before the latter open Philip had fired the first shot as By waters rushed past her nearly knocking her down he said In his attempt to escapa down the back stairway Tbe presence of Mr Gaines In the lower ropm she addedprevented flight in that direction and when Gaines forced By witers back Into his brides bedroom

Stock in a Prosperous Company at 100 Per Share This Is the Radiator ter This time she said as he darted across the bedroom through the open window to jthe roof over the rear porch both James and Philip opened fire Mrs Gaines stuck steadfastly to the statement that her brothers fired most of the shots through the window after By waters had reached the roof and not while he was in the room as the prosecution contends After Mrs Gaines had been briefly cross examined by Capt Mlcajah Wood for the prosecution as to the positlonMn Which her brothers stood in the room when the shots were fired she was excused George French Strpther was then called He testified that Viola had always been regarded with great affection by the family all referring to her as the baby Mr Strother said that he tame to Culpeper because his brother James had told him of fears he entertained for Violas supposed condition He declared emphatically that he had not favored a marriage between his sister and Bywaters but gave his consent when Importuned by the other brothers with the argument that It would be the only way to over their sisters shame Killing Not Premeditated His testimony like that of Mrs Gaines was emphatic that none of the brothers thought of killing Bywaters until they became convinced he Intended that night to abandon Viola The witness was not examined by the prosecution and at 4 30 oclock Judga Harrison adjourned the court until to ed away from her pulling her out of theV it An bed He then ran down stairs Zionists Celebrate Sixth Anniversary in Lewis Hall the street bed He then ran down stairs Then what occurred I was in such a nervous condition that I hardly know My mind Is almost a blank so far as what has ocqurred is concerned Did you Bywaters after he jerked away from you No sir Brothers Conduct Kindly The conduct of her brothers from the time of the marriage until the time of the shooting she said showed evidence cf kindly feeling and there was nothing to Indicate they felt any resentment This closed the direct examination and the witness wasturned over to Commonwealths Attorney Keith for cross examinationexamination How many times did you see Dr Walters he asked I cant tell exactly Did you see his wife Yes sir Did you get upon friendly terms Yes Mrs Walters felt sorry for me and she was very kind She wanted me to come to her house and remain until I got better Did Dr Waiters advise you to get married He did The witness said she told Dr Walters the whole story telling him of her four brothers and her other relatives Sir said she then almost reached the conclusionconclusion that Bywaters would not marry htr She could not recall having made certain statements to Dr Walters which were suggested by Mr Keith Knew She Was Suspected Counsel then came down to the time when she and Bywaters returned to Culpeper She was asked about a remark a friend made to Bywaters on the street She realized at that time1 she said that she and Bywaters Were under suspicion The witness repeated statements she had made in her direct examination and said It was not until Saturday morning that jme4old her brother Jim practically the whole story of her treatment She told him of the operation and its consequences thinking he might be able to bide her shame Shortly before I oclock Mr Keith an nounced that bis examination was at an end and court adjourned for luncheon Married Sister Testifies The trial lagged somewhat In tbe afternoon though trie session was not without Its interest The defense called only txrn srltnasaea Mrs Edward Rolne Mrs Bywaters married sister and her brother George French StrotherThelr testimony was toa great extent along the lines of that already told by preced Insr witnesses althouKbl Mrs Gaines br her emphatic declaration that the shoot ing waatn no sense premeditated ap peared to score an important point tot the defense So great wasthe crowd and so noisy though unmeaningly bo that Judge Har rison announced that no one would be al Tho trial win be resumed to morrow when It is probable that James and Philip Strother who fired tlio fatal shots will be called to tell the Jury their version of the affair With the completion of their examination the rebuttal will probably follow on Friday and this being so It is predicted that the case will go to the Jury on Saturday BANQUET AM DANCE The annual banquet
