FRANCE WAITING
No Official Notice 10 Arrest Paul Roy-Will Handle Ills Case
 In French CourlS.

Paris, Feb. 2S.-The French au. thorities are still without official no. tification of the Newington. N. Il. tragedy in which Paul Roy, a French man, now here, is charged by his American wife, Glacia Calla, with the murder of her brother on January 2 It is expected that some time must elapse before the machinery of the French criminal courts can be set Tn motion on the case. The question or extradition of Roy to the United States is not involved as France like most European countries does not surrend- CT a citizen, but tries such subjects ln the French courts for crimes eommlt- ted abroad. The United States gov ernment, therefore, can only call the attention of the French government to the crime setting forth the facts in connection therewih. This Will have to be carried on through the reg ular diplomatic channels at Wasning- ton. Even if the cable is employed the arrival of the documents must pc awaited before judicial inquiry can be opened here.
 No new features of the case were unearthed to-day. The family of Paul Roy appear confident that he will pc able to prove that he shot George A. Carkins, his wife's brother, in self defense.

Another Government Vessel Sent Out
 To-Day.

Rockland, Me, Feb 2S.-The scout cruiser Chester, constructed by the Bath Iron Works, left her anchorage early to-day for the official standard ization trial on the Rocklan1 mile course. The weather was clear and there was\a lihgt westerly wind. The Chester went on to the course at s o'clock and was to make. runs at varying speeds for the purpose of as- certaining how many revolutions of her screws minute are necessary to produce certain speeds per hour.
 Aside from interest because she is new type of ship and the class to be tried out the trials will be watch ed particularly to compare the mo- tive power of the craft which is the only thing in which the Chester diff fers from the Birmingham and the Salem, her sister ships. The lesign is the same and the contract speed, 24 knots an hour, must be the same.
 The Chester has the Parsons Vest inghouse tubine engines and is the first in the American navy to be equipped with that pattern. Birming. ham which will be tried March II has reciprocating engines such as are used on all vessels. whilet he Salem which probably will have her trial here in April has the Curtis or Am erican type of turbines.

BOMBS FOR SHAH
Two of Them Hurled From Rouselop as He Was Passing
 Through Narrow Street.
THREE GUARDS KILLED

Teheran, Persia, Feb 2S.-An at tempt was made in this city this af- ternoon to assassinate the Shah Of Persia by bomb His majesty was not hurt. Three of the outriders who were accompanying him at the time were killed.
 The shah owes his escape to the precautions taken to protect him from just such an attempt as was made this afternoon. He was on his way to nearby town where he intended to pass a few days. The procession had left the palace and was traversing narrow street when two bombs were hurled down at it from the roof of house. One ex- ployed in the air, but the other struck the ground near the shah's automobile. This missile in explod- ing killed the three outriders, wound- ed the chauffeur and score of by- islanders and shattered the vehicle. The shah, however, was not in his automobile. He had taken the pre- caution to send the motor car ahead and ride himself in a carriage fur ther in the rear of the procession. The motor car was a closed one and it was thought that the sovereign was inside As soon as the shah heard the explosions he hurriedly letf his carriage and entered neigh boring house. Here he remaine l quietly while his attendants sent word for troops. The soldiers were hurried to the scene and formed iL front of the house where the shah was. He then came out and sur rounded by a big body guard re- turned to the palace.
 The house from which the bombs were thrown and the buildings near by were searched by the police, but no arrests were made.

CITY NEWS.

There was another very noticeable change in the weather today and the thermometer took big drop. It was much more snappy to-day than yes terday. and this afternoon it contin- ued to grow cold. It is not surpris- ing that Horace Johnson has diff cult time trying to figure out the weather problem. He is not the only one that seems to be far from the mark on predictions.
 The ward for persons afflicted with tuberculosis which is being erected at the Brookslde home is going along rapidly. and it is expected to be in readiness about the first of April. About twenty persons will be able to be treated at one time in the ward. which will be located on the third floor. The charity commissioners and the members of the health department say that conditions will be vastly different when the tubercular ward is finished and that there will be little or no chance for the spread of lung ulSeuSe III lDe luSututlOn.
 So many friends of Antonio Far ino have been calling at the police station and some of them have stay ed so long that this afternoon the po- lice became impatient with a couple of his friends and put them out. They had conversed with Farino for some time but apparently had no thoughts of ending the talk at the time. When Captain Bannon informed them it was about time they departed they did SO but rather reluctantly. Char les Martone, Farino's victim is im- proving at the hospital. but Is not likely to be in court for a few days at least.
 The Forum club of St Mary's Alumni association made such sue cess of the vaudeville performance given in Mulcahy Memorial hall last Friday evening. the members are DOW thinking of having a minstrel performance after lent. There is plenty of talent in the association and as the minstrel show would only be given on a small scale. it would in all probability be a success.

A MARKED MAN
President of White Hand Society At Chicago Has Been Active
 Against Black Hands.
GOES ALWAYS ARMED

Chicago, Feb 2S.-Dr c. Volini, president of the White Hand society, which was organized recently to carry on war of eXtermination against the Black Hand, band of criminal Italians, is under sentence of death.
 He has received many threatening letters. The last one contained the positive message that death was awaiting him. Dr Volini told of this yesterday in, connection with the explanation of his attitude OF the anti-clerical question which is agitating the Italian colony. Dr Volini's practice has dwindled since the threats have been made against him, for he refuses to take any night calls. He is suspicious of every vis- itor and the clerk in his office has instructions to let no one past the door who is not known. He goes armed and is guarded in all his movements by his friends.
 Dr Volini is convinced that the anti-clerical quarrel started over a personal difference between one 9. the. leading Italians and priest "The Anti-Clerical society is na- tional movement in Italy" he said Here in Chicago a society has been formed, the Giordana Bruno, which has for its object the spreading of the doctrine that the priests should not mix up in matters of local gov ernment There is no anarchy in it. I know the men who organized it and know that they are opposed to crime.
 The murder of Father Leo Hein- richs in Denver gave the excuse for the local priests to attack our anti clerical society. It is not necessary to look in Chicago for the matching of that plot. The priest had visited Paterson. He may have made all enemy of the anarchists there. It is probable that the man who killed him was paid to travel west for him."

 Although Lillian Carkins the orig. inal name of the woman who now calls herself Glacia Calla, is known positively to have been born within inc city limits of Portsmouth in 1871 no record of her birth can be found upon the city records.

Calla of Portsmouth" and the mothers name as Carrie k. Calla of Epping" This entry does not appear in the same handwriting as that in which other births of lSS0 are recorded but is said by those who have examined the records to re- semble the penmanship displayed in entries made several vars later.
