1.-The constitutional guaranty that

GERS executing search warrant as
well as upon magistrates issuing it.
while officers in executing a war
rant to search a dwelling house oc-
cupied by family, may, and should,
search thoroughly in every part of the
house where there is reason to believe
the object searched for may be found,
they should also be considerate of the
comfort and convenience of the occu-
pants and be careful to injure the
hpl1ca furnitIIra than
Sonably necessary.
3-Where officers, searching a dwell
ing house for intoxicating liquors have
no reason to believe that such liquors
are concealed within the walls or par
titions of the house, but desire to as
certain whether any pipes leading to
some receptacle for liquors. are con-
cealed there, their sounding and even
probing the walls and partitions for
that purpose should be done with as
little damage as possible.
4-Where officers for the purpose
only of ascertaining whether such
pipes are concealed within the walls
and partitions of a dwelling, make use
of an axe, a pick axe and crowbar. and
tear ont the paper. plaster and laths
entirely around the walls of every

Cruiser Chester
On Fourth Trial,

Portland, Me-, March S.-After being
forced by the storm to remain at an
Choir in the lower halbor since Sunday,
the scout cruiser Chester steamed slowly
out past Portland Head today for the
fourth and final test of her official ac-
ceptance trials. Approximately at 1880 A.
NJ she began on the 24-hour run. during
which her speed will average 221a knots.
The purpose of this run is to thoroughly
test the endurance Of her Parsons tur-
bine engines. which on the three previous
trials proved so very satisfactory, devel-
oping marvelously uniform speed. also to
keep the coal consumption down SO that
the vessel shall steam n distance of at
least is knots per ton of coal consumed.
It is considered likely that the cruiser
will proceed directly to Path tomorrow
at the conclusion of her cruise at sea.

Through IA search of Averbuch's IL
brary, which was made up largely OF
books on revolutionary subjects and
lectures by prominent Socialists and
Anarchists, the police found that the
terrible deed of the morning was
planned and carried out to the death
by dreaming Russian boy, whose
mind was filled with hatred for the
government in his own country, the
burden Of the peasants of the world.
and the infiammatory ideas of RENE
dying social conditions promulgated by
the leaders of Liberal thought in
America.
The condition of mind to which he
had come, is shown by the fact that
last week Averbuch planned to commit
suicide with a young Jew with whom
he Fad discussed his theories of the
failure of life. This young Jew. who
is the one mentioned above as eur
ly haired is thought by the police
to have helped plan the murder of the
chief. His name could not be learned
last night, but every effort will be
made to find him today.

house at 21S Washburn avenue. where
Aver uch lived, they found his sister,
Olga, clearing away the dishes after

the detectives brought word to Chief
of Police Shppy that the Reds had

ton. They did not know who 1t was

were concentrated on the discovery of

through the mail, a scrawl informing
him that he was marked for assassin

the acts of irresponsible individuals.

this meeting, attacking the police bit
