The court may grant his plea and make him absolutely free. It may decide that ho has not established his sanity and refuse - to interfere, in which case the State authorities will probably send him back to Matteawan Hospital for the Criminal Insane. Thaw left the court room with jaunty step. The strain of the last four weeks, during which he has submitted personally to fourteen hours of crossexamination, was not apparent either n his face or nis bearing. At no time during the proceedings has he expressed anything but satisfaction with the results and confidence in the success of his cause, and ho la nnn-
as hopeful as ever. His hope seemed to be shared by members of his family. Including his sister, the ex-Coun-

journed sine die oslicially at C o'clock Thursday night.
The closing hours; of the session
were attended by renes of a most
uninteresting character. The revis
ion had been according to the desires
of some and with the hrnrty disap
proval of others, and the lagt two
days had been consumed by members of the Senate in expressing their satisfaction or dissatisfaction as the case
might be.
The conference report on the bill
was agreed to by the Senate by a vote
of 47 to 31. when the vote was taken at 2 p. m.. and soon afterward th?
concurrent resolution making certain chances in the leather schedule was
adopted by both Houses.
President Taft arrived at the Cap
itol at 4:45 p. m. and entered the room
set aside for the occupation of the
President on the concluding day of
a session of congress. His appear
ance there, the first time since his Incumbency as president, caused members of Concress to desert the two
chambers and form in line to be rereceived by him. There was a con
stant procession of handshaking statesmen through the Precedent's room from the time of his arrival un
til his departure at 5:50 o'clock.
Just as the hands of the Kold clock
In the President's room reached six minutes past five, the Payne tariff
bill, as the measure will be known, was laid before the President. He
picked up a pen supplied by Chair
man Payne, of the House Ways and
Means Committee. and which had
been used by both the Vice-President
and the Speaker in signing the bill, and attached his signature. After writing "William H. Taft," the Presi
dent added, "signed live minutes after fire o'clock, August 5, 1909 W. H. T." Hendlng over the President as he affixed his signature were Secretary Knox, Secrelary MacVeagh. Attorney General AVIckersham. PostmasterGeneral Hitchcock. Secretary Nagel and Secretary WIIpoji. Standing about the table were Senntor Aldrlch, Representative Payne and many memhew of the Senate and House.

London Special: The Foreign Office is in receipt of messages from Tokio that Japan to-day began work on the reconstruction of the AntungMukden railway, thereby earning out the ultimatum which Japan submitted to the other powers recently. The work is being done under guard of tho Mikado's troops. Hundreds of Chinese soldiers are stationed along the line, dispatches say, but thev are not of sufficient strength to offer any resistance. Japan is sending reinforcements to tho scene of tho trouble and is giving every indication of a determination to carry the work through with characteristic thoroughness. That r. grave difference exists between Japan and China is shown by the statements to England bv the Ml.
kado and Sir Julian Jordan, t'ie Eng. Ilsh minister at Pekln. The Mikado declares that Japan Is entitled to reconstruct tho railway under the treaty r i tf. t . I
i iwv. rhu ne aurioutas China's attitude to tho reactionary tendencies of Prince Ching. the regent. Japan's note declares that throughout the discissions China has had recourse to her "well-known policy of obstruction ami procrastination, hus evaded the just and roasonnbio demands of Japan and rained collateral
questions regarding police authority and other matters, thus delaying a settlement." The communication declares that since June 24 Japan has endeavored to Induce China to reconsider her decision and secede from her untenable psitlon. but that tho Chinese covorn.
ment has maintained an unyielding and uncompromising attitude. The final nrraitraph of the note contains Japan's tiki. uat urn. as follows. "In this situation the imperial gove ament Is compelled to tako independent action and to proceed to carry out the necessary work of reconstruction and Improvement according to treaty rights."
