Sidener took Ellis in hand to ask him just when and by whom he was in any way abused, beginning with a review of his testimony of attacks by; the police. Ellis mentioned having seen LAeut. Darby O’Brien at the sta- tion when he was rearrested Nov. 6. and identified Capt. Johnson as hav- ing been at the Dayton street station. Sidener brought Ellis up to a late hour Saturday afternoon, Nov. 6, without any complaint on Ellis’ part of abuse. Jaller Called as Witness. Jaller McCully was called as a witness at 11:40 a. m. At that time filled with law books, entered from an ante-room. Circuit Attorney Side- ner remarked to reporters that he was going to lay the groundwork for the presentation of the confes- sion to the jury. “Did you have a conversation with Eilis in the jail?” O’Brien asked Mc- Cully, after the witness had told of having the prisoner in his custody and of being present when an alien- ist examined the prisoner. Bates objected on the ground that any statement made by Ellis to Me- Cully was not voluntary, that it was part of an enforced examination, and that the State had not shown that the condition of duress surrounding the defendant when he made his 'written confession to the police had Judge Hartmann then ordered the jury excused until 2 p. m. and Mc- Cully proceeded to outline his tes- tlimony to the Court. He said he ap- : hours after the departure of the alienist, and asked the prisoner if he wanted to talk. He said he told Ellis he did not have to say anything about the case if he did not wish to. McCully’s Statement. “He told me,” McCully continued, | “that he thought a great deal of the ‘girl, and that they had fallen out. He said that he had become jealous, and decided to kill her and himself. He said he waited for her that night, and followed her after she left the at Glas- avenue and North Market He said that he took hold and said ‘What do you mean by say- gow “He sald she pulled away from , and that he pursued her and drew a razor.

He said he remained at home all the next day (Friday, Nov. 5) and that evening went to his girl's house an played cards. The following day he was arrested. “TI told him,” the jailer said, ‘‘that he would better keep his mouth shut while he was in the jail, or they (meaning apparently the other pris- oners) would break hfs neck.” McCully said no promise, of any character, was con- nected with the prisoner’s statement to him. Attorney Bates invalidated, if it js confession a confession is shown that the original was obtained by duress Line of Spectators Outside. Today's throng of spectators in the courtroom and third-floor cor- ridor of the Municipal Courts bulld- ng was nearly as large as that of yesterday. At the noon recess those who wished to remain in the court- room were permitted to do so, in- stead being turned as was done yesterday. In the corridor an augmented police force ofa Sergeant and 12 patrolmen kept a line during the morning, admitting a person to the courtroom whenever one left. Some of the young women who remained in the courtroom during the recess commissioned the negro janitor to bring fruit and milk chocolate, him for the service. The morning crowd began to gather before the courtroom waa opened at 6, and the room was filled at 8, two hours before the opening of court. By Judge Hartmann’s or- der, after 9 o'clock, a Deputy Sheriff ordered the occupants of the seating space to sit closer, and 49 women. from the line outside, were placed in the seats thus provided. Mrs. Hart- mann was in the courtroom, as was Edward S. Lewis, former Excise Commissioner. As yesterday, the gathering was largely made up of young men and women. The janitor reported that three men offered him $1.50 each for seats. Edward R.

Sidener showed Fuchs a graph of Miss Ellis printed newspaper the day after she murdered. The motorman said that was the girl he had seen. The bod: of Miss Ellis was found about 0 feet west of Glasgow avenue in the vacant lot on the north side of North Market street.

While capital ships under con- struction for the American navy, in- cluding 12 dreadnoughts and sfx bat- | tle cruisers, to be completed in 1928, will practically offset the British preponderance in this class of ves- sels, the information shows that the _American fleet still will be greatly ‘inferior in types of vessels regarded by naval officers as of the first im- |, These | ay ‘of 165 _portance in-navel strength. types include notably destroyer leaéd- ers, cruisers and light cruisers, and | cruising submarines: U.

In compiling the figures as to cruiser strength, rigid qualifications were laid down for this type of ves- ‘sel. The requirementa for first- line cruisers were declared to be: “large, fast cruisers launched since | Jan. 1, 1901, capable of keeping sta- ‘tion with the battle fleet.”” Neither the United States, Japan, France nor Italy have any able to meet the re- ;quirement.

In the light cruiser strength Great Britain leads all other nations by a jlarge margin, with Japan second and the United States a poor third. The | British navy has 44 light cruisers | lin the first line, 24 in the second line and five under construction.

A recapitulation of the figures show's that the Jan. 1. 1921, strength of the three principal naval Powers in first line major ships (battleships and battle cruisers) mounting guns of 13.5-inch caliber or greater, is as follows: Great Britain, 28 vessels of 728,650 tons; United States, 10 ves- sels of 300,100 tons, and Japan. nine vessels of 267,520. This compilation excludes capital 'ships mounting guns of less than 138.5 | inch caliber because of their low rate Co., April 5. Wildberger, who was unarmed, took up Sergt. Henry’s re- volver after Henry was shot, and went into the theater, firing on the robber, who was killed after having slain Patrolman Terence McFarland. The robber had taken $20,000 in bills, which was recovered. Jury Out Less Than 3 Hours. The jury considered Wildberger's case from 5:40 to 8:20 p. m. Following the acquittal of Wild- berger, John Groark, who figured in the testimony in the Wildberger case, was arrested on a charge of robbery. He was arrested at the time of the robbery of a number of ‘of 628,920 tons. while | , being the same in the case of Great imum displacement of 1500 tons anc another building.

Capt.

When they burst through the lower strata of fog they were in a side slip headed toward the ocean. The latter part of the book is de- voted to the possibilities of air travel, which Capt. Brown thinks will prove a Godsend to snowbound regions like Alaska and eections like Central South America, where Jand travel is almost impossible at times. The dirigible, he belteves, will be most practical commercially for long flights and the airplane for distances up to 500 miles. Passenger travel in comfort is already a possibility, he shows, and this feature is of inter- est to the layman. The book is free from techincal language and can be readily under- stood even by a person unacquainted from the country. town anywhere. Anywhere, at least. where the native stock predominates and the distinctive American types thrive.

There is a) riage she returns to the little vil- lage and marries this man, the fact making small difference to her. Of course there are complications ga- lore admixed with a fairly pro- nounced note of sex interest. Any- way the book is one which is likely to hold the attention. “SEEING THE WEST,” by KE.

NEW ars Jan. 8.—The market had to take @ large volume of realizing sales in the course of two hours’ business this morning. This selling produced a great deal of ir- reguiarity in the price movement. There were some rather sharp reac- tions in stocks which had gone up the most on previous days. The steels, motors, equipments, American wool and various others came down a point to 2 points in the early trading. But | they recovered quite a fair part of the loss in the last hour. been the case all week, the market was a puzzle to the professionals, who could not understand how the upward movement could keep on 60 long. A sharp drive was made against the Merican olle and Atlantic Gulf broke badly again, the idea be- ing that possibly one of the condi- tions for obteining the proposed $13,- 900,000 loan would be a reduction in the common share dividend. But with these exceptions there was no weakness whatever. The stocks on which profits were being taken were readily absorbed and while the gen- eral list did not do much in the later | trading a tumber of special issues were actually bought with « fresh | ce.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 8, 1921. 42 , ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Founded by JOSEPH PULITZER Dec. 12, 1878.

I know that my retirement will make no difference in its cardinal es, that it will always fight progress and reform, never tol- erate injustice or corruption, always fight demagogues of all parties, nev- er belong to any party, always op- pose privileged classes and public plunderers, never tack sympathy with the poor, always remain devot- ed to the public welfare, never be satisfied with merely printing news, always be drastically independent; mever be afraid to attack wrong. whether by predatory plutocracy or predatory poverty. JOSEPH PULITZER. April 10, 1907. ’ J LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE The Husband-Killing Fad. — Peo the Bditor of the Fost-Dispatch: It seems that Husband Killing is be- Goming quite a fad. If a woman has tired of her husband and covets his estate or his life insur- PLAT- : ~ : ‘latest reports from Marion, purporting to explain, do} PRESIDENT OR PUPPET. Mr. Harding is not getting on well with his Oabi- net making. The confident predictions of 10 days ago are being withdrawn. Those predictions placed Mr. Hughes at the head of the State Department, named Mr. Daugherty Attorney-General, definitely designat- ed Mr. Wallace as Secretary of Agriculture, and, with gome reservation, awarded two other portfolios to men who, from the first, have been accounted as like- ‘ly Cabinet prospects. And though offered as jour- | nalistic deductions, the predictions read like “in- | spired” utterances. | What has happened to halt the Cabinet program and possibly necessitate a complete revision? The not explain at all. The statement, for example, that | Mr. Harding has finally discovered that “the prob- ‘lem of fitting the Cabinet pegs into their proper places must be considered as a whole rather than plecemeal, if he is to be certain that the seer, |} comes out right in the end,” sounds like academic | patter, or, as crude persons would say, an “alibi.” Possibly an explanation for the difficulties at Marion is to be found in the deportment and attitude of the Pennsylvania Senators. Mr. Knox's pugna- lowed hard upon Mr. Taft's sanguine outburst as to the future of the League of Nations after a long con- ference. Mr. Knox brought an ultimatum with him to the effect that the League must not be revived, and went away satisfied that his orders would be obeyed. More recently, Mr. Penrose has declared that “it doesn’t make any difference who is Secre- tary of State.” The full meaning of that threat can ance, all she has to do is kill him, get, only be surmised, but on its words the statement is aoquitted on the plea of cruelty to her and marry the man of her heart, on whom she then spends the murdered busband's fortune. The majority of jurymen, subject to @ faise and misapplied sense of chivalry towards the fair sex, which is prevalent only amongst men of our country, forget- ting the high duty they have been called to perform and ignoring the fact that the same laws were made for both sexes, are moved by a few tears shed by a woman at court and acquit her of a most heinous crime, without realizing that such continuous leniency is a great men- ace to society. Laws punishing cruelty to women do exist, and it is very easy for any woman to obtain a divorce on such grounds without taking the law in her own hands. If the majority of men called to per- form the high duty of jurors think that the latter course is preferable, we may as well save the public funds which are ex- pended for the maintenance of courts and Judges. IMPARTIAL. = Watch Your Tokens. Pe the Baditer of the Post-Dispatch The people who have been accustome4 to purchasing street car tokens from United Railways conductors might save themselves loss as well as some embar- rt by looking at the kind of tokens The writer has always — ita to purchase tokens from a veaees in order to avoid delay caused change, thus relieving conductors of considerable extra work, at the same time expediting the loading of cars. However, only a few days ago nine tokens were purchased from @ con- 4uoctor on an Olive car. After leaving the ear 1 noticed that one of the tokens, in- stead of containing the letter “U" in the center contained the letter “S;" is- sued by the “Springfield Consolidated Railway Co.” I tendered the token fer passage on the same car line the follow- ing day. It was rejected by the con- ductor, I explained that I had purchased the token from a conductor on his line. I was told I didn’t. I resolved right there to tender only money for fare in future, regardless of inconvenience or Cc. BE. FISHER. Avenue Oars. Te thd Weitor & the Post-Dispatch.

Is the king- maker disappointed in his handiwork? Is Warwick to be king himself? Clearly, all is not well at Marion. Mr. Harding seems to be in a swirl of contentions which not even ‘his conciliatory genius can compose. That he suc- ceeded marvglously as a candidate in maintaining cordial relations with conflicting forces within his party is undeniable. Consummate tact was, indeed, exhibited, at the expense of candor, and, sometimes, so it seemed, at the cost of sincerity. But that was a campaign. The strategy effective then no longer avails. Skill in avoiding disagreeable decisions is all right in its place, but Mr. Harding no longer occu- pies that place. The time has come for him to meet the full shock of head-on collisions with one or an- other element of his party. Penrose to the contrary, it does make a great deal of “difference who is Secre- tary of State.” It may well make a profound world difference. It is for Mr. Harding to say whether he is to be President of the United States or a puppet of the Senate, and he ought to say it quickly. = = 7 A CHANCE TO EXPERIMENT. i N not forgotten. It fol-| ma ee ° | go generally defective dnd irresponsible, that a note- | worthy date in State history is reached when it can | reasonable to suppose that further study of the mole- cules and atoms and ions composing the brain will) reveal exactly what goes on in their structure when the elusive processes of thought are under way? With more exact knowledge of the nature of matter, new possibilities in medicine may-be opened. The structure of the molecules and atoms of a norma! bod- ily organ must present variations from that of the same organ when diseased. With data so intimate, new methods of restoring the normal structure and function might be the next step. The subject of the sub-atomic region is pert haps the most fascinating of any on which science is now engaged. The field of physics has been enormously Broadened and dignified. The discovery that enables introspection to be made into the very essence of created matter and even into | creative forces, is one of the greatest ever recorded. But only a beginning has been made. Still greater discoveries unquestionably impend in the next few years. i A ii A BREOORD OF STATE PROGEESAS. Missourt’s prison problem was so baffling a one, the evils of the contract system so great, the care of in- tes so inconsiderate, the penitentiary management be announced that a thorough reorganization has | been made.and that the convicts in four years have ‘earned $135,718 more than the cost of their keep. And Gov. Gardner, in his final message to the Leg- islature, says this gratifying improvement and this financial showing, which is so striking an f{ndex of the management's efficiency and the disposition of the inmates, are true exhibits in the record of prog- ress. It is perhaps a sufficient achievement for a single administration to have effected what appears to be a solution of a problem which had long engaged effort in* vain. Gov. Gardner may be assured that the sentiment of humanity with which, he approached this difficult task is apprecfated by all Missourians who take thought on the other fellow. The progress must continue under the succeeding administration. The Governor says that five boards, with 21 mem- bers, controlling penal institutions, have been suc- ceeded by one board with a membership of three. Why should not further State institutions of kindred character be grouped under a single control, with a Psimilar gain in financial and managerial methods? —— + -----—-@ @ AN ESTIMATE OF THE UNEMPLOYSD. A survey by a labor paper in New York fixes the number out of employment fn the United States at 2,350,000. It is stated to be the worst {ndustrial slump since the Roosevelt hard times of 1907. Sttul, the hardships caused by conditions in 1907 were short- lived. Recovery proceeded at a gradual but constant rate. Unemployment steadily diminished with tmmi- | grants arriving et the rate of 1,000,000 a vear. Causes for pessimism are even less now than then.

Some of the most stable and Money had gone now. The building trades situation may be believed to be typical of the situation in other branches of activity. With the entire country crying out for more housing accommodations and a shortage existing in structures for business and all kinds of purposes, no less than 300,000 men of the building. trades are reported idle, a greater number than in any other tndustry. A shortage exists in many other kinds of production. The public is not supplying many urgent needs be- cause it thinks it can supply them at more advan- tageous prices later. | When that shrewd public {fs satisfied that price’ reduction has touched the bed-rock level, look out for bituminous fields would astonish Prof. Garfield and stop the sale of a $3.371-2 product in 1916 at nearly three times that figure in 1921. a THE NEW SOIENCE OF PHYSIOS. | Dr. A. H. Compton of the chair of physics at Wash- ington University discussed in an address the possi- bility of one day analyzing thought and emotion Wonderful as the discovery of radium and the than the enlargement they brought about in our knowledge of matter and the revolutionary changes they caused in previous theories respecting matter. The century ushered in with complaints that previous Investigators had left Gothing new to be discovered had ‘not progressed far before the electric structure of the atom had been established and the fact dis-. covered that the atom, the smallest unit into which ‘matter can be divided without changing its {dentity, consists of still aller particles whose number and arrangement det ne ths nature of different forms of matter. With this new knowledge of matter, may ‘not further study acquaint us with new ways of changing the properties of different substances? May we not find the actual conditions under which many now mysterious processes of nature are carried on and supply those conditions in the laboratory?

It was the first time German music has been heard in the French capital since the war. There was that the house In which the opera was given is main- tained in part by Government subsidy. It may be contended that Wagner is a message fromp an older, finer Germany and that in the honor- ing of his genius there is no abatement of hatred for the wicked neighbor that plotted the despoilment and subordination of France to an inferior status. But the Germany that produced Wagner is bound to re- sume her honored and indispensable place in the world, doing her important part of the day’s work, and coloring the culture of the world by the virility of her indomitable industry, robust art and essential ki@tiness. The world needs the Germany of which Wagner was one of the most eloquent spokesmen in the medi- um of the one universal language—music. Belaureled as France is, the world of faith and hope will confer upon her still another distinction for flashing forth the signal that the war is over. Kaiser and Crown Prince could never cross the Marne, but Wagner is in Paris. , EDITORIAL 6PARKS. Wil 1931 be an unlucky year?

On yesterday, apropos the Capitol decora- tions, we somewhere spoke of “those astonish- ing troopers of Doniphan's, who rode all the way from Missouri to Mexico to sweep before them whoever they found in opposition.” If they really did that they must have been riding backwards and shooting over their horses’ tails. which ought to make about the most thrilling historical picture in our own State Capitol or anywhere else. What we doubtless meant to say was that they went down there to aweep before them whomever they found in opposi- tion, which would have faced everybody about, presented to one’s imagination quite a proper military spectacle, and ia, we dare say, what actually happened. is * A heading . 793809668421: from the Wife of 60 Gets Divorce : After Husband Locks Her Out : Which one of the 60 committed this domestic atrocity?

He obeys the laws of State and Nation, works for better laws, and upholds the law-enforcing authorities. He re- spects the rights of farmers and property-own- ers and also their feelings. He is never a fish- hog, and nourishes a thorough hatred of the dynamiter. He discourages the killing of game for commercial purposes. He loves Nature and its denizens and is always a gentleman. The reward of the conservationist is in the thrill of the chase, the glory of the woods—in the melody of the brook and creek and the song of the reel—in the gold of the autumn woods and the whirr of the quall—in the beauty end silence of wooded hills and valleys, and in the joys of helping to protect wild life for the enjoyment of himself and future genera- tions. Are you a member of a fish, game and bird protective association? Here are the rules these associations have endorsed: Crawl through, over or under without breaking them down. Go around, not across his newly planted fields. Don't {injure or disturb his chickens or Iive- stock, or let your dog worry or harass them. Be careful with your campfire and matches. Be a real man. There is more honor in giv- ing the game a square deal than in getting the limit. Help enforce the game law. Game and fish are public property and only a “game- hog’ will take more than his legal share. Violations should be immediately reported. Remember that without the farmer’s good vill, there can be no sport afield. The hunt- ing and fishing license is your card which qual- ifies you as a conservationist. The money you pay for it is used to prosecute the fish and game hog, the dynamiter, the seine user and the chap who hunts out of geason, and the propagation of fish to restock streams and lu kes. —-Richard Lieber, Director Department of Con- servation of Indiana, > + * Happily, we seem to be coming through the period of readjustment without any serious damage to anyone but a few greedy profiteers. There are still those who have not taken the plunge with prices and are shivering around trying to find out how cold the water is, but they will all plop sooner or later. Then wé can pick up the even tenor of our life where we Gropped it when the war started, a pair of shoes can be bought for what a pair of shoes is worth, bread will Hght again on the poor man's table, and people who have been main- taining from three to ten automobiles will con- tent themselves with probably one. That ought to be accomplished within the next sixty days, and spring should find us pretty well recon- structed. Let us hope that is to be so. It is too much to hope that anybody learned any- thing.

JAPAN AND UNITED STATES. From the ‘Manila Bulletin (Philippines). T a time when the best thought of the admine. istration leaders in both the United States and. Japan -is being devoted to bring about a perma~ nent understanding and lay the foundations for amicable adjustment of those differences that” may have arisen from the passage of the Calle fornia land law, it Is exceedingly unfortunate that | a Mmited number of individuals should be doing | their utmost to create distrust on both sides of the water. Representative Dyer of St. Louls, a mem-r ber of the congressional party that recently Vie” ited the islands, furnishes an excellent example of the type of official whose imagination creates a hundred “ifs” and paints terrifying pictures on the inspiration of a possibility. If Japan won't accept the California land law and listen to rea ron, we must fight. If Japan tries to take away - the Philippines and Hawaii we must defend them. . These and some 97 more “ifs” are the stock im trade of these talk mongers in the United States, and a perusal of the Japanese press indicates that the island empire is afflicted with a similar pest.” Japan seems perfectly willing to discuss the law in a friendly manner. Japan hasn't tried t@ seize the Philippines or Hawaii by force of army ond Japan hasn't set yet naval program that roakes her a dangerous coffipetitor of the United States in sea power. So why all of this talk about. what might happen if she did or did not do this o. that?

It was beginning to rather worry me. And yet, I'd like to see the thing through. Would you mind if I came with you” “I'd very much sooner have you,’ I said, and thereupon we fell to on a time table. Five min- utes later we were both hurrying off to pack our bags, and we met again at Euston in time to catch the 2 o'clock train. “It was long after dark when we arrived at the Escourt’s place, and I could see nothing of “*What do you make of it” ‘*} shall have to think about it a little longer, I'm afraid,’ I said cautiously. “She turned to her cousin and said: “*T have had sume dinner kept for you, Gerald.

Some. thing was probably the matter with the handle. for the catch hadn't caught, and so he opened the door for me without a sound I went out first and almost ran into a girl who might have been merely passing the door, but who certainly seemed rather to have only jus started to.move when she saw it open. She was a slender girl, dressed in dead black all save a an instant she looked at me and I saw her face distinctly. It was an uncommonly pretty face, the outside of the house, except that every here ‘too, with large, brilliant dark eyes, rather petite and there along the front a lighted window glow- ing the night showed that it must be an exten- sive mansion. Inside, the hall was imposing, the butler was the proper size and girth a but- features, pale skin and red lips; a type you'll meet every now and then, and a very fascinat- ing type when you do meet it.

One made allowances for her present state of mind, yet when I pictured a popular, dashing, goodooking man of two and thirty attached to this dame, I couldn't help srmpa- thizing with his desire to spend a week in town now and then. At the same time, disappearing into space—assuming he had done it voluntarily —was rather a different matter. And then, too, there was always the chance of foul play; so that in spite of her manner I tried to be as sympathetic as I knew how. “My cousin has no Toubt told you about’ my husband’s unaccountable disappearance,’ she. ‘“*T assure you I was very sorry, indeed, to hear of it.’ said T. ; “She looked at me rather as though sorrow kit in the least. “Who is that girl” I asked in a casual voice. “Hathway looked at her departing back **Oh, that’s Elliot, my cousin's maid: a jolly pretty girl, too.’ “Jolly,” I agreed. “We ate out belated dinner, had a smoke, and turned in, for I saw my way to doing nothing more that night. “Next morning came an exceedingly surprising development—a regular rouser, in fact. On the breakfast table Mrs. Escourt found lying a let- ter from her husband, dated the day before from his old pal Burton's rooms in Jermyn street. conveying his love, the news that he was hav- ing a pleasant visit to London, and the informa- tidn that he would be home in a few days’ time You can tmagine how we stared at one another as she read this epistie aloud. ““Great Scott!’ cried Gerald. ‘Then he has been in town all the....But dash it, how can he have been?

He used to slip out at nights for a Lreath of air. That particular nighc he was wearing his overcoat with the gloves still in the pocket, and One of them fell out. The girl told him it was discovered first thing in the morning, whereupon he scribbled that note 'to his wife, enclosed it in another note to his old pal Burton and asked him to post ic in Lon- don instantly. Only unfortunately neither he | or the girl knew that he had been reported missing and was being searched for. The giri rushed with the letter to the station on her bi- ' eycle, and got back a trifle late: hence the ‘mie understanding’ which caused her mistress to breakfast at 9.30. “As for my owa part in the show—-well, the | glove found in the house, the glimpse of that eavesdropping girl with stark fear in her eye, and my knowledge of the characters and cir¢um- stances of Escourt and his wife, gave me an ina- kling of what might possibly be the truth.
