A BURMA CIGARETTE

De|orey and Msntir on
Trial at Cambridge.
Charged with Murder Of Annie
Mullins In March, 1908.
Jury Chosen Wsdnssd ay...Accused
viii Try TO Establish Alibi.

Cambridge Mass, Nov. 3.-Charged
with the murder of Miss Annie Mullins
at, Arlington on March q, 1908. Peter
Delorey, IS years old a meat cutter OF
SOmerville, and James Mantir, aged
"A, a barber of Manchester. n. H., were
placed on trial in the Middlesex county
superior couro at East Cambridge to-
day.
The crime which the tive men are
alleged to have committed was one OF
the most mysterious the police of the
state nave ever had to deal with. On
March 70. 1908, the body of Annie Null
Inns, a domestic in the employ of Prof.
Hans c. Jeggemann Of Harvard, was
found in Squires field, Arlington,
with four deep gashes in her throat.
The medical examiner at first believed
that the girl had committed suicide,
but the absence of weapon in the
vicinity where her body was found
made the police believe the case was
one Of murder. There was no tangible
clew to lead to the identity of the muir
derer and although the police arrested
no less than a dozen suspects they
could not obtain sufficient evidence to
hold anyone. In their efforts to solve
the mystery the police sent inspectors
to Newfoundland, the girls home, but
no retl evidence was secured
On March g. 1909 nearly year after
the crime, the two men now on trial
were arrested upon information given
by, Mrs. Francis Delorey of West Bill
lerica, an aunt of Delorey. Mrs. De-
lOrey stated that the two young men
had told her that they had committed
the murder and that her conscience
was troubling her. .
The trial was begun before Justices
Jabez Fox and Lloyd G. White. Dis
trict Attorney j. ]. Higgins had charge
Of the prosecutions case with Horace
d. Hardy and John G. Bracket of
Arlington and Charles ]. Weir of Low
ell as assistants. Henry II. Winslow
and John A. Maroney were the attor-
news for Mantir, while Delorey was
defended by Frank McDermOtt. A We
nire OF $50 men was drawn for the Sc
lection of a jury.
The day was occupied in the selection
of the jury and it was late in the after
noon session before the box was filled for
the satisfaction of both sides. The II men
will be taken out tomorrow to Cambridge
to visit the scene of the murder. Just
before the session closed it was an
nounced that the defence will be an
albi.

In Colony of Japanese Men Who
Have Married White Women.

Mrs. Gunjro Aoki, formerly Miss
Helen Emery and daughter of Arch
deacon John Emery of the Episcopal
church, in a letter to friends has re-
newed her protestations of admiration
for her Oriental husband and his race,
and expressed as her unalterable de-
termination her intention to raise
their offspring in their. present home
colony Of Bellevue, Wash, where the
associations are such that the child
will not encounter the thOughtless
gibes of children of white parents.
OstraciZed by people of her own
race and practically an exile since the
discovery of her attachment for her
fathers Japanese house servant, the
former Helen Emery ayers that she
has become recOnciled to the squalid
surroundings of settlement which is
probably unique in the world. Belle

question of whether the Occidental

as twenty-seven, but the advent of

number of inhabitants. For be it
