ABERNETHY CHICAGO, May 3.—The Rev. William C. Abernathy, pastor 6t the Calvary Baptist Church in Washington, which is attended by President Harding, in addressing the laymen's missionary confer- ence here today, declared: “President Harding inberited a situation 1ore complicated, more delicate, more troublesome than has confronted any President since Lincoln’s time. I have no hesita- tion in saying that it is my firm belief he is going to straighten out the tangle. But he needs less criticism and more co-operation. No one. except those most Inti- mately conuected with the pres- ent administration at Washington can know the tremendous burdens that are being carried. “The world totters on the verge of disaster,” he said. “Treaties, laws, the scrapping of warships, international conferences; all these are good. but they will not save the situation. Religion will. A passionate church will. “There are even those who talk of a decadent ministry. They say the preaching of today is not to be compared in power or eloguence or results with that of a genera- tion or two ago. Perhaps they are right. It is quite natural to think that all the great characters are dead. There are, however, still some great prophets of God in England and American pulpits, ?enrge Bernard Shaw to the con- rary.” .

In fact, we have made it perfectly satisfac- tory, I think, on the water propo-| sition for the present. Of course, we in the House are just as much in- terested in a good water supply for this District as any of the conferees of the Senate.” Even before the amendment affect- ing the fiscal affalrs of the District was offered Representative R. Walton Moore of Virginia, democrat, reserved a point of order against it. Repre- sentative Charles R. Davis of Minne- sota argued that this was not involv- ed in the conference report, but Speaker” Gillett ruled that the action of_Representative Moore was timely. Representative Moore endeavored to persuade Representative Davis to postpone offering the amendment re- garding fiscal affairs until ail other items in dispute had been disposed of, but was unsuccessful. When the amendment was offered by Representative Davis, Mr. Moore made the point of order, first, that it would place new legislation on an appropriation bill, and, second, that it is not germane fo the Senate amend- ment. He said that the Davis amend- ment would really create for the Dis- trict & new fiscal system. By way of illustration, he pointed out that the “tax on intangibles, I believe, is three-tenths of 1 per cent. This amendment makes it one-half of 1 per cent. This amendment looks to 2 new division between the govern- ment and the District, varying from the present law, of revenues derived from certain sources. This amend- ment contains a provision which, so far as I know, is completely new, respect to the payment of ground rents to the government 'b: the District of Columbia. At pre: ent, the law . provides that taxation shail be based upon two-thirds of the value of real estate. This amend- ment provides that the basis here- after shall be the full market valu “They are not only changes in ex. isting law and, therefore, unauthor- ized, but, In addition, it seems to me, unless the theory of germaneness can be stretched to an indefinite limit they violate the requirement as to germaneness.” .

The Belgians did not attend lhc! meeting of the subcommission on Russian affairs and_the French dele- gates came late. The memorandum ‘was dispatched without the signature of the Belgians. It was rumored that the French did inot understand that the meeting was fixed for 4 o'clock yesterday after- noon, but when they arrived at 4:30 o'clock, it was clear they had re- mained away for further considera- tion as to whether they would stand »y the Belgiars. M. Barrere astounded the subcommission by announcing that the French delegation could not approve the memorandum without further discussions at Paris. Pre- mier Lloyd George expressed great amazement at this, saying that M. Barthou had told him this morning that the matter had been settled. M. Barrere explained that his action was Ibused on messages received from Paris after M. Barthou left to con- Ifer with Premier Poincare and the i French cabinet. Finally, at Mr. Lloyd George's re- quest, M. Barrere consented to pro- pose an. amendment to the national- ized property clause, and allow the amended draft to be sent to the Russian delegation, with the French reservation setting forth that the French were unable to give formal approval until further word had been received from Paris, after M.

C. HEAD “Affirms in Its Entirety” Finding of Police Trial Board in Wom- an’s Bureau Case. The District Commisisioners at a board sesslon yesterday “affirmed, in Its entirety” the finding of the police trial board in the case of Mrs. Mina WEDNESDAY, MAY 3 192050 e —— MRS, EASTLAKES LETTERS ARE READ Si Woman’s Notes to Nurse Tell of “Despising” Husband. From a Staff Correspondent. MONTROSS, Va, May 3.—Letters written by Mrs. Margaret L. East- jake to Miss Knox, heretofore not in- troduced, were read at the trial of Miss Sarah E. Knox, charged with the murder of Mrs. Eastlake, here today. Writing from Cape May, N. J. in 1919, the niirdered woman repeat- edly told thc nurse of her domestic troubles. She admitted “despising’ her husband and said that If it was not for the children she would leave him. From the letters it was shown that Miss Knox was her confidant, as she confessed to her of indiscretions with . who was shown to be the nurse’s brother, and emphasized her love for him. Mrs. Eastlake also dwelt at length on troubles that existed in the fam- ily of her husband. Heated argument between opposing counsel followed to the admissi- bility of the letters as evidence, Judge Chinn finally deciding that the jury should only consider the con- tents of the correspondence as show- ing the feeling existing between the two women at the time, but that the truth of tho statement herein should be disregarded. Instructions to Be Written. He sald later he would place his instructions in writing. The prosecution virtually rested its case shortly after court convened. After presenting certain letters writ- ten by Mrs. Eastlake to her husband, Commonwealth Attorney Watt T. Mayo announced that he had but two more witnesses to testify, but as they had been delayed he was agreeable that the defense should begin pre- senting its evidence. Harry M. Smith, -hief counsel for the nurse, called Miss Aszeele Carruthers of Colonial Beach, who testified to having seen Fastlake lylng on the bed smoking and Miss Knox sitting close and talk- ing to him on the morning of the murder. . € On cross-examination, the witness £ald she heard Miss Knox make sev- | was and what she did on the morn- ing after the body of the woman had been found. Dr. V. O. Carruthers, also of Col- onial Beach, followed his daughter to the stand and testified that Eastlake had not shaved when he saw him at his house that morning. The witness said further that he saw no shaving articles in the room when he went there to examine the body. It is expected the defense will rest its case by tonight. Judge Chinn will then instruct the jury in the morning_and the jury, according to plans, wiil get it by tomorrow after- nocn. A An _eleventh hour introduction by the prosecution of a bloodstained soft hat, said to have been taken oft the body of the dead woman on the morning of the murder, came as a surprise to the crowded courtroom at the late session yesterday. Both Commonwealth Attorney Mayo and Private Detective Bulware said the hat had been picked up by them along with other articles found at the house that morning, but when asked why nothing more had been heard about the hat until yesterday De- tective Bulware stated that he had left it in a box on his automobile. and as no one had called for it he did not think it of sufficient importance to make mention of it. Asked to identify the hat the second time he took the stand, Eastlake said he had never seen it before. The hat bore the trademark of a Baltimore firm. After identifying several letters written him by the deceased wife, Eastlake at the request of his counsel, W. W. Butsner, was permitted to re- turn to Washington. To facilitate matters the prosecu- tion allowed several witnesses for the defense to testify before it had rested its case. I Miss Helen Skipworth Athey o:‘i an Baltimore, wife of a physician, Florence A. Hunt of the Johns Hop- kins Nurses' Association, testified to having known the accused woman for many years, during which time they both said she had borne an ex- cellent reputation for kindliness and amiability. It was brought out by the prosecu- tion that the Johns Hopkins Nurses' Association had subscribed $1,000 to tween F and G streets southwest when called for the other fire. Cause of the shed fire, which was on_the premises of Catherine Bailey, Bar- bara Peterson, Scott Wimbush and Joseph Robinson, was not determined. The damage was $400.

Eastlake had previously testifled that he never made such statements to Heinicken. The witness said fur- ther that he had seen Eastlake with a hatchet very similar to the one with which it is claimed the crime was committed. Thomas J. Nebbitt, postmaster at Dahlgren proving grounds, who runs a general store at that place, testified to having sold Eastlake a pipe some- what resembling the one found under the body of the dead woman. Healso told of registered mail received by the petty officer from Miss Knox. Other witnesees to_testify for the prosecution include W. W. Butsner, Eastlake's counsel; Silas P.
