H., Jan. 4.~—The possible arrangement of an incendiary device by which the fire that destroyed the house in which Mrs. Florence A. Small was killed could have been set eight or ten hours after her husband, Fred- erick L. Small, left there for Boston on September 28, was the subject of further testimony at the trial of Small on a charge of muraer today. The prosecuting attorneys had announced they would introduce also evidence that a chemical mixture had been used to produce intense heat, intended to remove absolutely all traces of the murder. Franklin 8. Piper of Manchester, an electriclan, who was recalled, replied affirmatively to a hypothetical ques- tion whether a fire could be timed and started by a combination of wires, spark plugs, a coil, an alarm clock and other articles found in thn ruins of the Small cottage. Dr. B. Frank Horne, the county medical referee, who was on the stand when adjournment was taken vesterday, testified on cross examina- tion today that Mrs. Small’s body was burned so badly that it was impossible to tell whether there had been any marks of violence below the neck. Dr. George B. Magrath of Boston, medical examiner of Suffolk county, who examined the organs at the re- quest of Medical Referce Horne testi- fled that he found no evidence of a criminal attack or illness. The head of Mrs. Small was pro- duced by the state while Dr. Ma- grath was on the stand, after Judge Kivel had advised women to leave the court room. Objections by the defense to its introduction were over- ruled. Dr, Magrath said that the ap- pearance of the head was consistent with the theory of death by strangu- lation by a cord about the neck. He traced the course of the bullet found in the skull and explained that the line of fire was from the left, in front of, and a little above the head. The bullet wound might proved fatal, he said. During examination of Dr. Magrath, his his face in a handkerchief. DEATHS AND FUNERALS Mrs. Annie C. Fair. The funeral of Mrs. Annie C. (Conklin) Fair, wife of Thomas A.

WILSON WILL TRY HIS HAND AGAIN (Continued From First Page). lidity of these claims and professions he does not trouble to consider.” Referring to Spain's reply, the Post says: “The government of Spain may be supposed to understand better the re. alities of the situation since it is not only less rniote from the struggle but inspired by principles which are prob- ably somewhat nearer to reality.” Cit- ing its Washington advices that there is a strong feeling in the United Stutes in support of President Wilson, the Post sees a danger that this sentiment may drive the president into action injurious to the interests of the Allies. “There is danger of an attempt,” it says, ‘“to interfere with the means tho Allies are using to attain their end. Such an attempt might lead to a most unhappy situation. For neutrals to renounce the custom of supplying bel- ligerent nations with munitions in the ordirary course of trade would be a breach of neutrality and would, in fact, be an act of war in disguise. It is, therefore, important that neutrals should realize not only the possible, but the logical consequences of such actien.” After expressing the hope that it is impossible for the United States and the Allles to come to blows, the Post concludes: “All that need be said is that the Allies are as anxious for peace as President Wilson but cannot tolerate intervention at a moment when inter- vention means victory for Germany.” ‘Reichstag to Meet Soon.

GONSPIRATORS HELD UNDER HEAVY BOND Mexicans Plead Not Guilty to Smuggling Munitions New York, Jan. 4—The four Mex- icans indicted with Juan T. Burns, Mexican consul general here, for con- spiring to ship munitions of war to Mexico in violation of President Wil- son's arms embargo proclamation pleaded not guilty in the federal court today. Louls Gotting and Wencesloa Mont, in business as the Adice Export and Import company, alleged to have been the shippers of the munitions, were held in $10,000 bail each, and Jose De La Paz, an employe of the company, and Reuben Mier, arrested in TexaS and brought here, were held in $5,000 each. De Le Paz, the court was told by assistant attorney Knox, had made a statement “of interest to the govern- ment” but as it was feared he might leave the country, it was desirable that he be placed under bond. Consul General Burns pleaded not gullty yesterday and s now under $10,000 bail. DOBRUDJA SWEPT CLEAR BY TEUTONS Fall of Matchin Seals Fate of Rumanian District Russia’s last remaining hold in the Rumauian province of Dobrudje has been so badly shaken by the loss of Matchin to Field Marshal Von Mack- ensen’s forces that it seems doubtful if she can much longer retain her grip on any of this trans-Danube territory. Despatches from Entente's courses indicate an expectation that she probably will be forced shortly to abandon it. ‘West of the Danube at this point, Braila, the important Rumanian granary and oil storage depot is still held by the Russians, but it is con- sidered doubtful if it can hold out long under as serious a threat as is supplied by the Germano-Bulgarian operations across the river. The line of the Sereth, to which the Russians have retired further northwestward, runs just north of Braila. The ex- pectation is indicated in the de- spatches, however, that the prolonged defense of the city has given time for the removal of the valuable stores of- provisions and material which lt contained. Y On the Moldavian' west frontler, where heavy pressure by the armies of the Central powers has been ex- erted, the defense of the Russians and Rumanians seems somewhat fimer. The latest Petrograd official statement does not concede any fur- ther withdrawals along this front in the face of the Austro-German at. tacks, although further progress at one or two points was claimed by Berlin. No operations of importance- have been reported from any of the other fronts. Most of Dobrudja Gone. London, Jan. 4, 4:20 a. m.—The capture of Matchin is regarded here as ending the defense of Dobrudja. The Russians held the Matchin bridge in order to protect Braila from the rear. Nothing now remains to them except a narrow strip of land between marshes which carries the highway to Braila. The Germans and Bulgarians are in a position to push their guns with- in eight miles of Braila, and it is as- sumed that if the invaders capture the latter town the Russian line west of the Danube will be withdrawn. It is taken for granted that the pro- longed resistance to the German ad- vance has enabled the defenders to remove the stores of grain and other material from Bralla. . Russians Take 600 Prisone) Petrograd, Jan. 4, via Landon, 2:50 p. m.—The capture by Russian forces on the Rumanian front of 600 pris- oners, three cannon and 16 machine guns, together with some mine throw- ers and bomb mortars, is announced in today’'s war office statement. This success reulted from an attack on hostile positions on heights to the south of Botochu mountain in the wooded Carpathians. Calm Night in West. Paris, Jan. 4, 2:10 p. m.—"The night was calm over the whole front,” says today's official announcement. LYNCH—MURPHY. Vincent M.

ON PREMISES FRED WINKLE, Auctioneer. +Steel and Pig Iron Markets New York, Jan, 4.—The Iron Age says today: The new year opens with the pres- sure upon steel warks and blast fur- naces in no degree relaxed and with a notably large inquiry for ship plates, 150,000 tons being now before Eastern mills. At the same time the difficulties of production and of moving mill pro- ducts have grown more acute, cur- tallment of output amounting in some cases to 25 per cent. Many more blast furnaces have had to bank in the past week, after a precarious operation in most of December. Cen- tral Western furnacemen are meeting in Cleveland this week to discuss measures of relief, When every ton of output is ne: the industry is entering on a perl igcreasingly uncertain deliveries. All the railroad buying of cars and loco- motives in recent months will give no relief for the winter, for war work found a hold last year in car and loco- motive plants when railroad buying was backward. Highly significant of the expansion in the demands upon our steel works in the vear are the statistics of new steel capacity provided in 1918. A total of 103 open-hearth furnaces com- pleted in twelve months added 4,205,- 000 torrs a year to the country’s capa- city; yet prices advanced mare rapidly in the second half than in the first half of the year. Beyond all prece- dent is the amount of new steel capa- city under construction at the begin- ning of 1917, From a total of 72 open-hearth furnaces, 11 converters for duplexing and two purely Besse- mer steel plants now building ar pro- Jected, an annual output of 5,015,000 tons a vear is expected. The showing starts an interesting speculation as to the relation of steel supply and de- mand when war buying stops. ‘While only five new blast furnaces with 800,000 tons yearly capacity were added in 1916, there are now 25 under construfiifon, with a capacity of 4,100,- 000 tons a year, Pig-iron production for the 31 days of December fell considerably below that for\November with one day less. Telegraphed returns from practically every furnace show 38,171,087 tons for December or 102,293 tons a day, against 3,811,811 tons in November, or 110,394 tons a day. So many furnaces were banked on January 1 that the capacity active on that day is not a criterion of January praduction. Our statistics show 311 furnaces active at the gpening of the month with capacity of 101,975 tons a day, against 322 furnaces December 1 with capacity of 108,127 tons a day. We estimate the production of pig iron in 1916 at 39,450,000 tons, put- ting charcoal iron at 400,000 tons. The previous high year was 1913, with 30,966,152 tons, and the 1915 produc- tion was 29,916,213 tons, Next to. shipyard inquiry, exports Jead in the current market. © France has placed 30,000 tons of barb wire to be shipped early this year, and de- tails have just been settled of spike and track bolt cantracts for several hundred miles of railroad for France. The Italian state railways want 10,000 tons of squares and rounds in soft steel. Little headway has been made on the shell steel recently sought by England, France and Ttaly. Further rail buying for 1918 has come to light, including 55,000 tons far the Southern Pacific, to be rolled at Ensley and 8,000 tons for the Chi- cago & Alton. Frog and switch manu- factures have taken 40,000 tons for 1918, In the quietest week the pig-iron market has seen in many months the sale of 25,000 tons of Bessemer iron to Ttaly at $35,50 at Valley furnace stands aut prominently. An FEastern company’s recent purchase of basic iron amounted to 17,000 tons and an- other FEastern steel company has bought 5,000 tons of ferromanganese for delivery in the next three months. In the mavement of prices the chief feature of the week has been an ad- vance of $4 a ton in iron and steel pipe, black and salvanized. applying also to oil well subplies and line pipe.
