NO 175 PERSIAN CAPITAL IS STREWN WITH DEAD FIRED WITH FANATI CAL FURY, REBELS BURN HOMES AND SLAY RESIDENTS Holy War Is Declared and the Streets Run With • Blood—Shah's Rule Seems Doomed (By United Press Leased Wire.) TEHERAN, Persia, July 13. —Strewing the streets of Teheran with dead and wounded men, the Persian rebels today entered the city and storming barricade after i barricade, made their way towards the palace of the shah. The loyal cossacks wert powerless to check the ad vance of the overwhelm ing force of rebels and late today it appeared certain that the unhappy monarch would fall into the hands of his enemies. Holy War Declared. ( For the first time In history a holy war was declared today against members of the Moslem faith when the priests of the Sacred College of Mujthids Issued a proclamation Inciting the rebels to attack the palace. Mullahs of the college were sent to the Per sian frontier from Nejef, Turkey, to proclaim the war and the rebels were prompt to respond. Streets Ron With Blood. Fired with fanatical fury, they advanced upon the city and soon the streets were running with blood. Looting homes and burn- Ing shops, the rebels threatened to wreck the city. Foreign resi dents retreated from their homes In the outskirts of the city and have taken refuge in the legations and about the palace. Fears for the safety of even the legations is entertained. The Mullahs of the Sacred Col lege evaded the difficulty of pre cedent with-regards to the declara tion of war against members of the Moslem faith in a very clever manner. They simply prefaced the proclamation of war with an other proclamation excommunicat ing the shah and his followers. Downfall Expected. The downfall of the shah is ex pected and It is known that he fears that bis reign is at an end. He has already made preparations to take refuge in the Russian le gation. If he does flee from the palace to the legation he may be safe, although there is some doubt of it. Cossacks Powerleaa. When the rebels entered the city this morning from the north and west, a small force of Per sian Cossacks remaining loyal was sent out to repulse them. Barri cades were hastily thrown across the streets leading to the palace in the hope that through their aid the enemy could be checked. The Cossacks were greatly out numbered by the attacking army and the fickle populace, seeing al most certain defeat in store for the shah's forces, rapidly took sides with the rebels. The barri cades were swept away, one after another, with ease and the rebels made a steady advance toward the palace of Shah Mohammed All. No estimate can be made of the number of dead and wounded. The streets seem to be literally filled with Injured and dying men. • • Attendance at Fair Vohhch Million Mark SEATTLE.

SHE Itl- FUBSE TO TESTIFY. (By United Press Leased Wire.) WHITE . PLAINS, N. V., July —Evelyn Thaw was' sumoned by the state this afternoon to ap pear as a witness against her hus band, Harry, who is on trial with regards to his sanity. She took the stand at :06 o'clock this afternoon. ' Appeared Rational. Edward Havens, a jailer at Poughkeepsie, was recalled to the stand and testified that Thaw re- ceived as many as a hundred visi tors a day while In jail and that he appeared rational while talking with all of them. Thaw is watching every jnove made In his case and today fre quently intermixed his counsel to make suggestions. William W. Smith, a millionaire philanthropist of Poughkeepsie, said that he had discussed religion with Thaw and found him well versed in the Bible, and always rational. Cross-examination of the wit nesses showed that the state would confine its efforts to prove that Thaw was insane on the ques tions of "killing White," "young girls ruined" and "vile dens." iwelyn Thaw arrived at noon today and refused to make a statement to the reporters before entering the court room. At the opening of the afternoon session the state requested the suspension of the defense's testi mony long enough to permit Eve lyn to testify. The defense ob jected but was overruled. No Greeting. Evelyn was attired in a blue sailor gown and a large black sailor hat. She brus>hed past Harry as she made her way to the stand, but they did not exchange greetings. She said she had visited her husband shortly after he was sent to Matteawan asylum. "Did Thaw at any time threaten to kill you?" she was asked by the state's attorney. The defense objected to this question, claiming the privilege that a wife does not have to tes tify against her husband, and a long legal argument ensued. The court asked the witness if she claimed the privilege of re fusing to answer and Evelyn snap ped in reply: "I simply do not wish to an swer. I haven't claimed any priv ileges so far, as I think the rec ords will show." Dr. McDonald was chosen today as the third alienist for the state and will assist in the examination of Thaw. The alienists for the de fense have not been summoned as yet. BflymUnLLS" ON TAFT TO MAKE GOOD . (By United Press Leased Wire.)

Never was there more impres sive obsequies in Tacoma than this afternoon when hands of friends gave back to earth from whence it came the body of Con gressman Francis W. Cushman. The armory was a shrine of na ture, and the casket resting on beds of roses was the frontespieoe in a reproduction of a corner of Point Defiance park which Cuah man loved so well and helped to place at the disposal of this city by his work in Washington. Floral Tributes. Great floral tributes from friends and organizations were placed about the body, silent trib utes of kindly thoughts and out of this bower of natural beauty the cold, white face of the dead in placid, restful repose gave no' sign of recognition as thousands marched to the casket to view for the last time the features that had for so many years been fa miliar to them on the streets of Tacoma.

The family, the city, the state, the nation wept at the bier of the lead congressman. Postofflce Closed. Some business houses closed their doors, the city hall was si lent for two hours, the poßtoffice. was unopened, and the world In chls vicinity seemed to stop for an tour in the mad rush of progress to pay homage to one who helped to make the progress. A special train bore the lumbermen from chelr convention at Seattle to the funeral, to show appreciation for the service done their cause in ialls of legislation.

YO HE! HOW'S $660,000 FOR FIVE YEARS WARBLING Caruso Sells His Voice for That Princely Sum, But He'll Only Sing Three Times a Week and Only During 22 Weeks a Year— lie's a Money Maker, All Rj^ht. NEW YORK, July 12.—The news from Paris that Enrico Caru so, "the man with the golden voice," has been signed to sing five more seasonß at the Metropolitan CARUSO AS A BUSINESS MAN, AT THE DESK IN HIS NEW YORK OFFICE. opera house has drawn attention to the Btrange shrewdness of the singer, which makes him as much a business man as an operatic star. Caruso put his signature to a document, also signed by Otto H. Khlim and Senor Gattl-Cazazzi, for the opera company, which assures him three appearances each week for a season of 22 weeks tor the next five years, at |2000 an even ing. If Caruso's voice should fail him, the opera company must stand the loss. For the five years covered in the contract he will receive the stupendous sum of $660,000! Caruso's health is insured by the Metropolitan opera company for that sum to safeguard any loss to the men who hand Caruso his pay envelopes. Besides Caruso's huge wages the salaries of men noted as financiers soem dwarfed. Mark Twain, would he warble his best for the rent of his life, couldn't make enough in that way to pay Caruso's chauffeur's wages. Mark said so himself when he beard Caruso had been signed. Richard Wagner, endowed with the most marvelops musical mind ever alloted to a man, never dreamed of having in his life as much money as Caruso will get in the next five years. Whistler, Van Dyke, Rembrandt or Murillo, each was the greatest of the world's artists in his line of painting, yet their voices were worthless. Yet Caruso is financier, writer, composer and painter. When he is not spending his time before the footlights. Caruso is either at his desk, his piano, in his office or at his easel. He is endow ed with what Caryle said genuius was: The infinite capacity for taking pains. A year ago CarußO heard doctors say he never would sing again. An operation was performed on his throat and he had to learn the scale over. But now experts say his voice is more marvelous than ever. It was as a business man that Caruso secured for himself such a large fortune when he signed the contract. In his suit at the Knickerbocker hotel Caruso has his office. It is furnished plainly, with a small desk, room for his stenographer and a safe. Here, in posalc frock coat, he busies himself with his financial affairs several hours a day. A genius at song, he also is a genius of finance. Caruso Is worth millions, and it is invested in the four corners of the earth where people demand him to slug. Yet he attends to all the detail* of. his investments with the same care that hewould use on his voice on the evening of an operative appear ance.
