SLIGHTLY BETTER SHOWING
IN YESTERDAYS REGISTRATION

There was a slightly better showing in
the registration yesterday, when there
were 30 names recorded as against 100 of
last year on the corresponding date,
showing a falling off OF but ten. on ac-
count OF the storm today the result will
probably not be so favorable in compari-
son. but IL is believed that the results Of
the efforts 10 get out a good registration
are beginning 10 bear fruit.
or course. this drop I'm the bucket Mon
day will help little. hut when IL is con-
sidered that the registration is about $3.50
less today than at the corresponding date
I'm 1904, the seriousness OF the situation Is
apparent.
There are but q more days in which 10
register and the voters who want
change 10 have a voice In the selection OF
next years general assembly need to step
lively.

 Which Is Which.

New York Dec. 16-A double tragedy occurred today. in which Albert Davey, a walking delegate of the plasterers' union, and woman with whom he lived in West Sixty-third Street. were shot and instantly killed in a manner that is puzzling the police. f
 The authorities are convinced the case is one of murder and suicide, but have serious doubts as to which was the murderer. the woman or the man. Arthur Davey. a brother of the dead man, was an eyewitness to the tragedy. and asserted to the police that the woman shot his brother and then sens a bullet through her brain
 The murder and suicide followed a quarrel in which the brother, Arthur Davey. was endeavoring to act as peacemaker. The police say that the stories of the other tenants in the house do not agree with the story told by the brother.

 fin Ch0rge.

Washington. Dec. 16.-oficers of the Naval Academy are harshly criticised for winking at hazing in resolution introduced today by Representative Pearre of Maryland.
 After reviewing the Branch Meri- wether case and tn ehazing of Midship- man Kimbrough, the resolution pro- vides for a complete investigation by the committee of the House on Naval Affairs. and recommendations by that committee as to how the code may be so reconstructed and changed as to pre- vent disastrous and disgraceful oc- currences."
 In conclusion the resolution urges emphatically that the responsibility for recent events at Annapolis be fixed defi- nitely. ''so that hereafter the result may not end with the mere dismissing of promising young men from the in stitution. but bring to book and visit proper penalties upon the trained off, ficers in charge, of the conduct of which they must be held responsible"
