EAST BROOKFIELD, Vt., M I.—Hungry, cold and weak fro loss of sleep, Earl Woodward, ex convict, and eleven-year-old Lu cille Chatterton, the child he kid naped a week ago, were founH today in an old hay barn in the hills here. “Oh, don’t hurt us; please don’t take me home; what will daddy do?” cried little Lucille, as three men with a police dog on leash rushed into the barn and awak ened her. “Don’t shoot, I’ll go along. It might as well be you fellows,” the outlaw said, submitting without a struggle as three rifles were held at his breast. Child’s Condition Pitiful. Threats of lynching caused tho little posse to hurry the fugitive to the small hotel at Randolph whero he was put under lock and key. Lucille, after being examined by physicians, was provided with food and warm clothing by George Jerd. the man who led the capturing trio. The physicians found that Wood ward had not harmed the child. For a time the girl, weary, dirty and bedraggled, seemed dazed. Her condition was pitiful. The little face was drawn and white. Her feet were bn the ground., Face and arms wore bruised and cut. torn by brush as the ex-convict dragged her over fif teen miles of almost impassable mountain fastness —the wildest re gion in Vermont. In a few hours, however, with food warming her tired body, Lu cille seemed to take a new lease of life. Rugged By Father. Walter Chatterton, her father, who had been on the trail with only a few snatches of sleep for seven days and nights, came here by au tomobile. The farmer’s daughter, whose pil grimage with the desperado over mountains and through valleys has attracted nation-wide attention, was restored to her father’s arms. “Daddy, dear, don’t scold me," sobbed Lucille. “No,” came from the breaking voice of the father. The next minute Chatterton clasped the girl to his breast. There was no hint of vengeance. The man who had sworn to kill the kidnapper of his child, found no desire for vengeance. He was too glad to have his little Ctrl back. 1,000 Men in Hunt Three farmers and a police dog made the capture while nearly 1,000 men scoured the vast mountain range. b A silent victor of the man hunt was Deeka, big mountain police dog, from the Weston, Vermont, summer estate of N. J. Peabody, of Boston. It was Deeka who tracked the ex-convict to the H® waa in charge of Bhmeat Dutota, care taker of the Peabody estate. Boy Chase and Jerd wesf

All that Uttle Lucille wore was a thin sweater, a middle blouse, a Skirt, shoes and stockings. Escapee Posse’s Bullets Twice during the past twelve hours Woodward had been fired on. Each time he escaped the bullets from the rifles and revolvers, to be finally tracked down by the police leading up to the capture ot the desperado came in rapid Bro order. Woodward was seen and fired on by Jerd. The ex-convict ran to cover of the forest, carrying Lucille in his arms. few hours later he was again •een, this time by Ernest Hall, of North Randolph. Lucille stumbled and fell as Woodward fled, but she quickly got to her feet and hur ried after the man. Hall fired with hia revolver but the shots missed the fleeing Woodward. This rendezvous of the man and child was found in an abandoned sugar house. Blankets and provis ions were taken as well as Wood ward’s ammunition. Cadets Join Hunt. Word was sent to East Roxbury where the Norwich cadets were on the hunt. The crack rifle squad of the cadets led by the four ro gulgr ogpay officers at the univer sity, were rushed to the scone. Tho forest near the abandoned ■tiger house and the Howe farm buildings is made up of a thick growth of spruce with tangled underbrush. The rifle squad was spread out and advanced into the woods. In the meantime, however, the citizen posse had brought out blood hounds and the police dog. Rain was falling and the ground -was cold. The dogs were hardly ‘.able to get the scent. Finally, tho hounds came to the abandoned barn on tho Howe place, and began baying. Fugitives Found Asleep. Tho Uttle posse with rifles and revolvers ready for action rushed tho barn. Inside they found Woodward and Luettlo asleep in the hay. Exhaust ed and half awake, Woodward offered no resistance as shot guns wore thrust into his face. "Thought we’d get them in that Howe barn,” said Jerd. "We kept a watch on tho place most of the night and then brought up the doge.” CAarge invitod.

They are to discuss the methods by which they will Impress on the union meetings the importance of "spending labor’s dollars with labor's friends.” At Central Labor Union head quarters today, there was displayed a notice by Clarence Cooper, sec retary of the Elullding Trades Coun cil which has been circulated from the Trades Unionist offices to or ganized labor in Washington. The statement urges members of all unions, in view of existing labor trouble in the building trades, to have all repair work and building done by union craftsmen. It ..is stated that full information re garding legitimate contractors who employ union building tradesmen will be furnished by the trades council. This statement, it was said, fol lowed the notice of the Operative Builders’ Association to Its mem bers, advising them to employ con tractors who resisted increases in building trades pay. and offering to put applicants in touch with such contractors.

GARRETT EAGER 54 COUNTS (Continued from First Page.) practice of law range from $74 to $5,000. Garrett has already been arrested twice. The first time was a little more* than two weeks ago. when he was arrested on six warrants charging the embezzlement of 514,- 500. The complainant named in the warrant at that time was Chief of Police William Aud. He was released in $6,000 ball. Yesterday Garrett was arrested on bench warrants issued by Judge Robert Peter on the forgery charges, when his bail was in creased to $16,000. It is expected he will be again arrested this afternoon on a bench warrant as a result of today’s in dictments and asked to put up additional bond. Early Trial Is Expected. An early trial will be given Garrett, probably within the next ten days, it was indicated. When Judge Peter suggested May 19 as the date for the trial Garrett pleaded for an earlier date. It is probable that Judge Peter will set a definite date for the trial some time today. Although the event yesterday brought Rockville its greatest ex citement in recent years, the in dictments against Garrett seemed to be over-shadowed by the fact that George G. Bradley, former bit ter political foe of Garrett, sup plied the SIO,OOO additional bond fixed by Judge Peter. Bradley's action was as much discussed as were the indictments. Deserted By Allies. Garrett has been deserted by the group of political allies who helped the Brooke Lee faction of the Democratic party gain its present hold on county affairs, and who placed Garrett in It is an open secret that the en tire State machine has turned "thumbs down” on Garrett.

14TTEMPT TO PUT SILVER DOLLARS INTO CIRCULATION FAILS TREASURY I ECONOMY BALKED East Returns “Cart Wheels’’ as Fast as They Can Be Put Out By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH The Government’s campaign to put millions of silver dollars into circulation has been abandoned, it was announced today, because of the adversion of the public to the old-fashioned “cart-wheel.” The Treasury put millions of them out, but like the cat, they came back. Silver dollars are re turning from all sections east of the Mississippi to their accus tomed resting place in the dusty vault of the Treasury. The use of silver dollars was designed as one of the numerous Administration economy moves. Treasury officials had estimated that by substituting “hard money” for paper, the Treasury would aave >1,000,000 a year in its print ing and paper bill. Propaganda Failed. Newspaper publicity, public ad dresses and bank co-operation fail ed to educate the Eastern United States to the habit of jangling a few heavy silver dollars in their pockets. The campaign has brought rn •ven stronger reaction to paper money and no further efforts are to be made by Secretary Mellon to force silver dollars on the pub lic. The drive was cast into the discard as hopeless. _ Ten million “hard” dollars were added to the normal 156,000,000 in circulation a few months ago, as an initial move to Increase the "cart wheel” crop outside the Treasury by 140.000,000. Within a month after the new dollars left the Treasury the backward march started. It was officially estimated today that circulation is virtually the same as when the campaign opened. East Turns ’Em Back. Assistant Secretary of the Treas ury Dewey pointed out that for •very 40,000,000 silver dollars kept in circulation, the Government would save 11,000,000. Silver dol lars. he explained, wear indefinitely, while their paper substitutes are back for remaking about eight months after issue. It costs I*4 cents to keep a paper dollar in circula tion eight months. “There is apparently a decided tendency, especially in the East, against ‘hard money,’ Dewey said. "Although many of the Government departments co-operated by placing a few silver dollars in their pay envelopes, the Treasury was unable to keep them out.” The bulk of the present 56,000,000 stiver dollars in circulation remains west of the Mississippi. Treasury’ officials predicted that they can never educate the East.

In cities we studied there have been sixteen outbreaks of typhoid among children in five years.” Hoover said that the American educational system was built first on the basis of mental training alone. By degrees, he pointed out, we have filtered into the system some degree of moral training, but it is only of late years “that we have begun to give any thought, at all about health training of children in the schools.” “According to the Bureau of Education.” he continued, "less than one-tentb of the school chil dren today are receiving anything which pretends to be an adequate physical education and health train ing.” In 1915, the survey showed, the country child had a better chance of reaching maturity In full health than the city child. Today the city child has a slightly better chance. Hoover said that this means "we have made more progress in the cities than in the country, showing the necessity for organizing a broad-gauge program of child, health which will reach to our farm children as effectively as it is beginning to reach our municipal children.” DOCTOR IS KILLED ON ANSWER TO CALL WILLIAMSPORT.

6 LOGAN MANSION MAYYIELDTO PROGRESS Famous Residence and Land mark Seems Destined to Be Tom Down The bld home of General John A. Logan, at Thirteenth and Clifton streets; one of. the few remaining landmarks of thq Capital, may soon pass out of existence to be replaced by a modern structure, perhaps an apartment house, it was learned to day. Since the house was sold by Mrs. Mary Logan Tucker,, daughter of Genefal Logan, a year ago, the house has stood va,can£. During that time the house, orie of the fine mansions of old Washington, has been the repeated victim of vandal ism. which, the agent for the pres ent owners avers, continued despite repeated efforts to prevent it. Mischievous youths broke win dows and on several occasions the vandals gained entrance to the house'and seriously marred its one time beautiful interior. The destruction of the old house and its possible passing to give place for a newer structure elicited expressions of regret from Mrs. Tucker, who declared it was her hope that the house. which held So many/ fond memories, would be •pared. Would 'Make Clubhouse The old house, Mrs. Tucker be lieves, would retake an ‘ideal club house, situated as it is in a section where there is no longer a tract of land nearly as large as the grounds which surround it. In *1845, when the house was builL it was one of the largest su burban homes of the Capital. During the Civil War it served as a hospital for Union troops. It was not until 1886 that it came into the Logan family. General Logan had taken his seat in the Senate and as his duties frequently kept him in Wash ington during the summer months, he desired to have a home where he eould live comfortably during the warmer months. Friends shook their heads dubiously when they learned that General Logan- had bought a home “so rar out” from the center of the dty. General Logan died a little more than ft year after he moved to his new home. The widow .of General Logan, now dead, and his daughter have not occupied the house since before the late war. .It, was occupied, meanwhile, by prominent national and international.. pgMonagesi.* Wi liam Jennings RryXn rented the house from Mrs. Logan whiter'he served as Secretary of State m the Wilson Cabinet. Former Governor Lowden, of Illinois, “lived there while he was in Congress. Lord Sculley leased the house as his home, and another distinguished tenant was Marlin Littleton. From the Logan house, Mrs. Littleton in itiated thp campaign for the preser vation of Monticello, thb home of Thomas Jegerpen. ft also was tpr a while occupied by Fairmount Seminary. Historic Residence. Brilliant social affairs are num bered among the functions that have been held In the old house. It was there that Mr. Bryan gave a recention to William Gibbs McAdoo, following his marriage to the daugh ter of President Wilson, who was present at the reception. Tn tone evening,.- not long after the deatlr of General Logan, 5,000 Knights Templar were guests at a reception hpld in connection with conclave o£ the order.' General Logan had; promised to entertain the kbights and hi? family made good his promise. The treasured war relics of Gen eral Logan for a time occupied a memorial half Which Mrs. Logan had added to the house. These were later given to the State of Illinois.

May I.—Unable to call for help because his power of speech was practically silenced by injuries received in the world war, John Baker was the victim of a brutal assault and robbery while walking in the Bowery. His alleged assailant, who de scribed himself as Patrick Mullins, twenty-five, of Hartford, Conn., was arrested after a chase of sev eral blocks by Patrolman Joseph Shea. Baker told the police that Mullins accosted him, then knocked him down by a blow on the jaw and pro ceeded to go through his pockets,- taking S2B in cash. A passerby, seeing the veteran on the ground, silently fighting as best he could, was puzzled at first, but upon seeing Mullins run called the police.

8 AUTHOR TELLS HOW SLAYERS FACED DEATH Morosco Gives Vivid Picture of Electrocution at Sing Sing The State of New York today had exacted from Morris and Joe Diamond, brothers, and John Fa fina, its penalty for the murders of William H. McLaughlin and William S. Barlow, Brooklyn bank messengers. The following graphic account of the executions was written for International News Service by John A. Moroso,. novelist and short story writer, author of “The City of Silent Men." The Diamond brothers and Farina went to the electric chair at Sing Sing last night. By JOHN A. MOROSO, International News Service. DEATH CHAMBER, SING SING PRISON, May I.—Morris Diamond, twenty-eight, was the first of the three to be killed. A rather heavy man leaned his ear against the door, waiting for the sound of his footsteps. Suddenly before us Diamond appeared. He was guided toward the elec tric chair—a little bit of yellow furniture. He looked terribly frightened and seemed to know that death was upon him even as he and his fellow murderers had given death to William H. Mc- Laughlin and to William S. Bar low, of the West End Bank, on November 14, 1923. Killed Men In Cold Blood. The Diamond brothers had offered no chance to these Imnk messengers, from whom they had taken >43,600. The Diamonds and Farina had not offered them an opportunity to lift their hands and •urrender. They murdered them in cold *blood. Morris Diamond asked Warden Laws that he might go first to his death. His request was granted. Above the door into which he was ushered was the word "Silence.” The legal witnesses, and the news paper nren, realizing the dignity of death, were, of course, silent. Morris Diamond came to the chair, stood in front of it and pulled from his pocket a sheet of paper from which he read a few sent ences that meant nothing. The paper fell from his hand. He was pushed down into the chair. As they placed the blindfold on his eyes he looked like a scared rat. He was soggy of body and soul. Strapped Into Chair. Suddenly a belt was thrown about his waist by a blue uniformed at tendant of the prison, and in two minutes he was strapped and tied securely. Behind him was d rather youngish man, who' held in his right hand a white napkin. He dropped that piece of cloth. There was a hupt. Diamond was killed. Doctor Amos O. Squire leaned over the dead body in a yellow chair searching for a heart beat with stethoscope. He put the stethoscope three times on the left •breast, which had been bared by stripping open his coat and shirt. There must have been the trace Os a heart beat, because the rather young man behind the yellow chair dropped the piece of linen again. Once more there came into the death chamber the hum of electric ity. I saw Morris Diamond lunge forward, straining at his harness of death. Pronounces Man Dead. As if in a dream I heard Doctor •quire say: "This man, I now pronounce dead.” Morris Diamond was lifted from s** s No 8 3 0 f xh Ru s«a Calf and A Patent Leather M I j 4-4// Our g i ¥6O a I The Ensemble I Flatters the Foot i The plain pump is appropriate for a smart tailored k suit, but the ensemble costume requires a more u decorative treatment that is less severe.

Again the man who was the at tendant on the door leading be tween life and death leaned and listened. We could not hear the foot falls, but suddenly the door opened again and Joseph Diamond, twenty-two, entered the room and was escorted to the chair. The executioners were quick at this job. The lad’s life was ended within about a minute. The man who put on the current was a lit tle bit of a chap and a little bald. From where I stood near Warden Lawes, I could see him at his work throwing on the current. He seemed to take it as part of the day’s work. Terrible To Behold. Doctor Squire again applied the stethoscope, testing for a heart beat. Once more the piece of linen dropped and our little bald friend threw the current on and Joseph Diamond was killed. He was ter rible to behold when dead. There waa one more to be killed, John Farina. He was twenty-three years old. There was the same listening at the door for the con demned man to enter the chamber of execution. Farina came in smoking a cigar. He took two puffs of it, saw the electric chair and threw his cigar aside knowing that the moment he sat and was strapped in would be his death. His smile was cynical. There probably has been no show of bravado more striking than Farina’s entrance into the death chamber. As he sat down in the chair, he said: "Good-by, all.” Says “Good-by” Again. The executioners were adjusting the electrodes to his -head and his' bared right leg and had covered bis eyes with a short black mask. When all of us thought he was killed we were surprised to hear him say "good-by" again. Father John P. McCaffrey, who succeeded Father Cashin as* the Catholic chaplain of Sing Sing, a young man, extended to Farina a crucifix to kiss and as he did this he recited the Litany of the Saints. He completed the litany while THE WASHINGTON TIMES Th* National Daily FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1925. Farina sat there in the chair w’’h his death imminent. It seemed as if we would never hear the hum of the electrlcltv for the third death. The executioners gave Farina a shock which seemed to me, b mere muscular activity of death, would burst his bonds from the harness of the chair. The first blow of the electricity didn’t- seem to kill Farina. All of us expected a groan or cry from this man who was being slain by the law’s process. Once more Doc tor Squire and his stethoscope, searching for a heart beat. Once again the dropping of a piece of linen. To the horror of us all, from the skull on the right side arose a column of smoke. Then this man seemed to have dropped like a tired person in his tracks. He was put on the little white table and sent to the mortuary room. He was the third to be killed.
