The trial of the Kryzyanowski will contest in Judge Kerrigan's court yes- terday developed nothing important. Captain John O'Neill. who was a friend of the deceased Polish woman, was cross-examined and repeated his tes- timony of the day before regarding her iliness and peculiarities. He also said that she had spoken of her brother, who left the family home when she was a small girl. The chii- dren of this brother are the contest- ants of the will. O'Neill's wife cor- roborated his evidence and Claus Hadler, Mrs. Kryzyanowski's landlord, told of his business relations with her, but was not allowed to express an opinion as to her mental condition. .

The ban- quent was held in the superb new quarters of the Travelers’ Club in the Champs Elysees. The guests included Embassador Porter, Baron d'Estour- nelles de Constant, Admiral Watson, Professor Barrett Wendell of Harvard; Dr. Trousy, dean of the University of Paris, and over a hundred members of the American colony. Embassador Porter's speech on the upbuilding of the Américan navy was enthusiastically received. He spoke of the na s exploits since 1812 and urged that Congress preserve the historic ship Constitution. He emphasized the the- ory that a strong navy is the surest guarantee of the nation’s peace. The speech of Baron d'Estournelles de Constant was significant from the fact that he was a member of The Hague tribunal. He said the United States had within the last three years given Europe remarkable evidence &f its power in shaping events which con- stitute the world's advancement. When The Hague tribunal had been almost forgotten and intentionally ignored, President Roosevelt brought it back to life by referring to it the Mexico-Cali- fornia case (the Pious’claim). States- men of Europe considered this as an effort to resuscitate The Hague tribu- nal, and it speedily led to the submis- sion of the more important case of Great Britain, Germany and Italy egainst Venezuela. The Hague court, thus saved, the speaker said, made stéady progress, the latest result being submission of the Angio-Russian s to arbitration. Baron d'Estournelles de Constant, after graphically portraying the hor- rors of the war in the Far East, de- clared that the enlightened policy of the United States gave hopes that even that great tragedy will be stopped. He closed with a toast to the success of President Roosevelt’s proposition for a second meeting of The Hague confer- ence. The speech, which was im- promptu, was heartily applauded. e INSURANCE COMPANIES MAY FAVOR TOTAL ABSTAINERS Records Sald to Show That They Live Much Longer Than Moderate Drinters, NEW YORK, Nov. 23.—Total ab- stainers in the matter of spirituous and malt liquors are likely, in the near future, to be given special low rates by the leading life insurance cor panies. As is well known, the insur- anc never issue pelicies kers where the cir- e to immoderate dri cumstances are known, but for many vears numerous authoriti claimed that the average was longer among persons who were total abstainers and the under- writers have never taken a decided stand in the matter. Now. however, it is statsd that number of actuaries and medical rectors have been working on stati tics running over a period of several ¥ and from the records of a large number of life insurance companies several of the authorities have come to the conclusion that the total ab- stainers as a class live longer by from 20 to 30 per cent than the moderate drinkers as a class. —_—————— TRANSPORT LIQUORS TO A PROHIBITION TOWN S have an of life MAY Court Exempts Any One Who Is Not Fugaged in Regular Express Business. EBOSTON, Nov. 23.—The full bench of the Massachusetts Supreme Court de<” fed to-day that it is not a erime for the seller of intoxicating liquors intenided for delivery into a non- license city or town to transport them by one not carrying on a regular and lawful express business.
