W. C. A. Executive Makes Address to Companjr of Yonnar Women at the Whlta Honse. WASHINOTON, Nov. 17. "I doubt If there Is a movement among; the movements that ono can broadly term philanthropic, In the country which better deserves the Interest and support of our people than the movement for young Women's Chris tian ass jlatlons. Thus spoke President Roosevelt to a gathering- of prominent young women of Washington, who called at the White House on the president's In vltatfon to receive his congratulations on the splendid work being done by the Young Woman's Christian association In this city, and to shake hands with Mrs. Roosevelt and himself. "There has been In the past," contlriued the president, "an effort to do more for young men than for young women. I re member five years aga being very much struck In New York at a time when I had some connection with work on the East Side, with the fact that there was so much more opportunity for a young man, with out friends In the city, to get a place for himself, to escape temptation, to receive aid, than there was for a young woman; that too often there was no chance for the girl, the young woman, who came to the city, to receive help and have the human sympathy which she so much needed." The president then reviewed the work being done by the Young Men's Christian association In this city, expressing his grat itude to the workers and bespeaking for them the support necessary to erect an adequate building.

Joseph ' Maxson, the man who escaped alive from the burning house, told the first part of Ills story of the fire today. It differs but little from the story which he told following the fire. Peter Colson testified that Mrs. Gunness was at times unkind to Jennie Olson. The way In which he relntd his conversations with Lamphere. Ms own experiences with Mrs. Gunness. his love for the woman and his suspicions, were unfotte and straight forward, his broken English adding to the effectiveness of the story. Three Actions Aaalnst I.amphere. The troubles o Lamphere and Mrs. Gun ness, as shown by the records of Justice Grovere's court, were then offend In evi dence.

His testimony will he concluded tomorrow. Defense Will Be Snlclde. The first positive statement of the de fense In court to show its line of defense was made by Attorney Worden when, cross-examining a witness, at which tlms he remarked that an effort would be made to show that Mrs. Gunness was a suicide. Along this lln It follows then that the de fense will contend that she first murdered her children ?nd then set fire to the houss. William Slater Sold the Jury that Lam phere worked fos him. in the' winter after he had left Mrs, 'Gunness' employ. He said:- " -'( -v r-d.1 1 - -; ' "Lemrhcre told menhput Andrew Helge Ictn coming to Mrs., Gunness' place and that he admitted that he had drawn a cun on Helgeleln and told him he must get out. He sld he was jealous of Helgcleiu's attentions to Mrs. . Gunness. Iamphera told me that after Helgeleln bnd left ?Trs. Gunness had most of his clothes theru. Lamphere told me one time that he was In the cellar and heard Mrs. Gunness and Helgeleln plotting to poison him.

He also told me that once while in the barn milking, before two witnesses, Mrs. Gunness promised to marry him." Bessie Wallace testified that Lamphere visited her In March and In conversation raid that Mrs. Gunness owed him soma money and that he would get It or maka It unpleasant for her and would get even with her.
