PAGE BILL STOPS PICKETING
Measure of Interest to Labor Is Intro
 duced In Senate.

Albany, Jan. 9.-What will probably prove to be one of the most interesting bills of the session was introduced in the senate by MT. Page of Manhattan. It provides for an amendment of the criminal code which would effectually check ''picketing" in New York by ia bor strikers in attempting to prevent other men taking their places. Viola tion is defined as felony.
 The antirace track gambling bills. already before the senate, were irtro- duced in the assembly by MT. Hart of Oneida. The assembly bills differ slightly from the Agnew bills in the senate providing no alternative of fine in the penalty for race track gambling. The friends of the antirace track gam bling bills declare that this assembly committee has been so constituted that it will be impossible to obtain favor able report on the bills. It is certain that the two party leaders of Kings McCarren and Woodruff-do not want these bills passed.

ELLIOTT AND WOMAN CAUGHT
Friends of Whitmore Are Arrested In
 Swamp Murder Case.

Newark, N. J., Jan. 9.-Two impor- tant arrests were made in the case of the murder of Mrs. Theodore s. Whit more of Brooklyn in the Lampblack swamp at Harrison.
 Fred W. Elliott, the railroad man who visited Whitmore from Christmas day until the following Saturday, was arrested fin Boston as an accessory after the fact. He was locked up on the request of Prosecutor Vickers of Hudson cousty N. J., and at the same time Boston detectives began to search the Boston Tenderloin for Whitmore's friend Georgie Dickenson. Mrs. Cassie Mckay, who may be of equal impor- tance with Georgie Dickenson in bringing the murderer of Mrs. Whit more to justice, was arrested in Brook lyn. The woman has confessed that she was with Whitmore, the husband accused of the crime: Georgie Dicken- son and Fred w. Elliott the day after Christmas and that the four spent that night in the Adams street house.

SUES TO GET RID OF OSBORNE
Helen MaIoney Appeals to Courts to
 Annul First Marriage.

New York, Jan g. - Papers were served on Arthur Herbert Osborne, the young New York broker, in an action to annul his marriage with Helen Flu genie Maloney, daughter of Martin Ma loney, the Philadelphia millionaire and papal marquis.
 The action is for the purpose of en- abling Miss Maloney to wed, with the blessings of Rome, Samuel Clarkson, the youthful Englishman, with whom she eloped Oct. l of last year. The couples disappearance, their secret journey to Canada, their marriage in Montreal and their subsequent flight to Europe furnished one of the most re- markable international romances of the times. Both Miss Maloney and Mir. Osborne are said to have confessed that their wedding was mock affair and that each regarded it at the time as no more than joke.

CLEVELAND OFFERS ADVICE,
Tells New York clubmen Conssrvas
 tism Is Country's Need.

New York, Jan. 9-"Jackson day" was celebrated at the National Demo- cratic club of this city by a dinner. The feature of the affair was the fol- lowing message from ex-President Cleveland to John Fox, president of the club. The message in part read:
 T very much regret that am inex. orably obliged to decline the courteous invitation l have received to attend the Jackson day dinner to be given by the National Democratic club on the Sth.
 T am intensely interested in every effort to revive genuine and effective Democratic sentiment and to restore the Democratic courage, consistency and confidence whose necessity to our party's success and usefulness has been so often demonstrated in the past It is but natural that those who have followed all their lives the Democratic standard should longingly desire their party's success, but this success can not be gained by either shouting our pdl oi ic experiments.
 T am profoundly impressed by the conviction that the situation now con fronting the people of our land has directed their attention more to their relief from conditions that alarm and startle them than to the empty satis- faction of partisan supremacy. Our country needs conservatism, recupera- tion from nervous prostration, rein statement of constitutional observance, buoyant but none the less safe and prudent Americanism, scrupulous care of every person and every interest en- titled to care and square deaF' that means exact and honest equality be- fore the law and under constitutional guaranty.
 These things are still among the possessions of true Democracy, and Democratic patriotism, sincerity and wisdom demand that our party in this time of need should unitedly offer them to our countrymen."
