placed on trial next week for the
murder of Arturo Ascencio, priest
from Santo Domingo, who was found
wounded in Central Park on Septem-
Der IA, and died two days later. De
Lara, who confessed his crime to the
police, is one Of the youngest persons
ever placed on trial in this city for
murder and also one of the best ed
ucated. He speaks several languages
fluently and spends most of his time
in reading. His father is said to be
wealthy wholesale merchant OF
Santo Domingo, owning branch stores
lin France. England and Germany.
The killing of the priest was at
first thought to be case of suicide.
DeLara was his protege and had come
with him to New York on pleasure
trip. When questioned by the police
he confessed the crime and said he
had killed the priest because of the
latter's depravity. After shooting him
through the back of the head, the
boy rifled the priests clothes, lighted
cigarette and walked out of the park.
Recently he made an unsuccessful at.

In a private letter from Nashville
speaking of the Carmack tragedy, a
friend of the editor of the Eagle says:
"The murder is said TO have grown
out of an article in The Tennesseean,
which was tame to some of yours.
Don't you think you editors will be
compelled to censor your articles to
the demands of Cooperism?"

FAVOR NEW ORLEANS.
And the Crescent City Favors the
Union.


The following resolution was
adopted by New Orleans Progressive
Union at joint mass meeting of
Progressive Union and Farmers

The progressive Union of New Or

ried financial Cand commercial inter

and approve the objects and aims of
said Farmers Union Convention, to
wit the praiseworthy and opportune
efforts to make cotton bring better
prices, and we call upon all the finan-
,cial and commercial strength of the
cotton growing States to join in and
cooperate with the Farmers Union in
the accomplishment of such purposes,
realizing as we do that every interest
in such States win be greatly bene-
fitted ehereby. ~
Second: That we realize that the
cotton grower is justly entitled to the
active aid of he financial and COM
cial interests to enable the grower to
so hold and OPPORTUNITY sell his cot
ton instead of being in large part
compelled, by present systems of cred
its and times of payment, lack OF
proper warehouse facilities, ETC., to
sell cotton in the fall months, thus
Cutting the market and lowering the
prices.
Third: That a great step forward
has been taken, by the appointment
of committees from the Farmers
Union and the New Orleans Progress
sive Union to hold joint conferences
and prepare plans to remedy these
conditions, and we express the belle
that such joint committees win de
wise safe and proper plans for the SO
luton of these problems.
The following resolution was adopt
ed by the National Farmers Union
