SENATOR 8EVER1DGE RETURNS TD TIE CITY

Duration of Russo-Japanese War Deixmds on Depth of Cash Boxes. BEFORE K. OF P. JUBILEE Junior Senator Will Speak ToNight Toastmaster of Lincoln Day Banquet. Senator Albert J. Beveridfre, who is to participate in two events of Importance In this city this week, ar rived from Washington one dny earlier than was expected. The senator would not have come until to-day but the situation in thp Senate enabled several of th senators to get away and Senator Ilveridge took the opportunity to spend an additional day with his friends ut iV me. He will address the Pythinn jubilee meeting: at Tomlinpon Hall to-nls;ht and to-morrow evening he will preside as toastmaster at the Columbia Club Lincoln day banquet. With regard to the work in the Senate Senator Beveridge did not speak further than to say that it is expected that the present wek In the Senate would be Riven up to continued speechmaking on the Panama question and that the expectation is that a vote on the question would be reached next week unless the Democrats should give way before that time. Great interest was displayed by newspaper men Rnd the sr-nator's many callers yesterday afternoon In the Russo-Japanese situation. Inasmuch as It has been a well known fact that In the last few weks Senator Beverldge has been in frequent conference with President Roosevelt and Secretary of State Hay on the far Eastern question, the senator's visits to the Orient having virtually made him an authority for counsel and advice on that situation. The senator avoided any allusion to such conferences and when asked as to the probable attitude of the United States as regards the present war in the far East he said only that this country would undoubtedly maintain a strictly neutral attitude. DEPENDS ON CASH RÖXES. As to the prospective duration of war he replied that in his opinion that would probably depend on the "depth of the cash boxes of the respective belligerents. " Further than this the senator begged to be excused from discussing- the situation. Thomas Shlpp, his secretary, explained the senator's position by saying that since the appearance of Senator Beveridge's new book. "The Russian Advance." the senator had been besieged with so many requests for interviews that he had found it absolutely necessary tu draw the line on any public discussion of the question. It waa further explained that the senator had thoroughly expressed In his book his views on the Eastern complications. The book is having a large sale. Newspapers all over the country have been devoting much space to reviews of the book since the outbreak of hostilities. Several of the larger papers have quoted extensive passages from what the senator says of the respective fighting qualities of the two warring nations and their respective advantages on land and sea. The senator's friends found him apparently in excellent health, notwithstanding the heavy amount of committee work that he has on hand this session of Congress. He has made no set speeches this year and probably will make none, but reports from Washington indicate that the present session is one of Um busieat the junior senator has had since his election to the Senate. One reason for this is that committee work ts taking; practically all his time. The committee on Territories, of which he is chairman, has been at work almost constantly on Alaskan legislation, which will take a prominent place in this session of Congress, besides other measures of importance affecting the Territories of Arizona. N w Mexico, Oklahoma and Indian Territory, besides Alaska and Hawaii. In addition to this the committee hearing the Smcot case as well as the postoffices and post roads committee, of which Senator Beverldge is the Indiana member, have taken much of his time, not to mention the "steering committee," which requires much time, but whose work is rarely reported. NSW BOOK WRITTEN BY LOCAL MINISTER "The Gospel of Cause and Effect" is the latest contribution of an Indiana author, the Rev. Thomas H. Nelson, of this city. The Rev. Nelson is superintendent of the Pentecost Bands of the World, a religious organization of wide scope. In his new book, which is an interesting treatise on moral philosophy, the Rev. Nelson holds that the ancient biblical prophecies are couiirmed by modern events and teachings. BANK CLERKS9 CHAPTER GIVES A SMOKER The local chapter of the Bank Clerks' National Association gave a smoker last night at the Commercial Club rooms. The local chapter was Instituted last September, since when it has been steadily increasing in membership and interest, and now ranks among the first chapters of the association. Several interesting talks were made. Peddler burned with Theft. Charged with stealing about sixty pounds of copper from Joe Bornstein, a junk dealer, Amos W. Llntncr, a peddler, living at 2827 North Now Jersey street, whs arrested yesterday by Detectives Manning and Simon. Lintner denies taking the copper. MRS, DELIA MARSH IS FOUND MENTALLY SOUND Commission Discharges the Woman, but Orders Her to Clean Her Place of Abode. SHE LIVES IN SQUALOR Living in squalor and filth in a little room at S North Noble street, Mrs. Delia Marsh, a mere wreck of what she once was, a woman of wealth and refinement, was found by the Flower Mission workers, who. after providing food for several days, had her taken to the Jail yesterday to await the action of an insanity commission. Looking worse than the dogs she had with her, the woman was found by the workers of the Flower Mtsalon. to whom the case had been reported by some neighbors. The filth in the little room is Indescribable. Neighbors of the woman say that since the death of her husband, about one year ago, she has lived the life of a hermit. All attempts to Induce her to clean the room and herself have failed. At the Jail the woman appears to be in her right mind and she shows every evidence of having !-'i.d a good education. The woman has been living on refuse from restaurants and private families, which she gathered after nightfall. Justice Nickerson investigated the case yesterday and the woman appeared before an insanity commission. After careful -amlnatlon she was found to be sane and was discharged with warning to clean her home.

Judge Anderson held yesterday that the Indiana Bailway Company, operating an interurban system between South Bend. Goshen, Elkhart and Mishawaka. was not in an insolvent condition and refused to appoint a receiver for the compan.
