In fact she .declared it tasted like all the rest. She dented that she hnd intended for the jury to assume otherwise. Mrs. Thaw made what was consid ered perhaps the most damaging statement to the defendant when she slid he had showed her copies of cablegrams that were being sent to Stanford White from Europe asking him to use his influence with a cer tain man In London to prevent Mrs. Ncshit from "raising a fuss” nnd in- terferlng with Hv.elvn continuing in the company of Thaw.

President Bonilla of Honduras has issued a proclamation in which recent events are distort'd and appealing for recognition of the boundary question, which Nicaragua has not. taken into consideration since the King of Spain rendered liis award in the matter. From the outset Nicaragua has oniy demanded ample satisfaction for th? violation of her territory, for tlje at tack made on property and the ’burn ing of buildings in Nicaragua by reg ular troops of Honduras and for the killing of the Nicaraguan Soldiers who composed the small frontier guard which was attacked by troops. lifeboats, when the alarm was first sounded, promptly put out to the as sistance of the Berlin, but the vio- j lence of the gale and the -heavy seas 1 made it impossible to approach tho wreck, and the helpless would-be life- savers saw the steamer break up and the crew and passengers washed away without being able to render the slightest assistance. The Berlin left Harwich at 10 o’clock last night, upon the arrival there of the London train, with the greater number of passengers who subse quently lost their lives. The steamer should have reached the Hook of Hol land at 6 o’ca'ck this morning and would have then proceeded to Rotter dam. Wind Drove Her Ashore. As the B rlin ivas entering the tva- terway at the entrance of the River Maas she apparently became unman ageable on account of the force of the ‘wind and was driven ashore The alarm was given and lifeboats from th' shore went to the assistance of the stricken steamer, but the seas were so high that the boats, were unable to approach the Berlin close enough to take off any of the pasa -ngers or crew and the lifeboat men had to sit help less while the steamer pounded un til she broke in two and every ••soul on board was carried down.
