Miss Ethel Ransom, aged twenty-five
years, was killed and five other persons
injured, two probably fatally, as a re-
sui, ~ fcua aght on the streets OF
Williamstown to-day
There had been bitter feeling for n
long time between the Lantern and

two miles east of Williamstown. The
first outbreak was suppressed, but
later the men met on the street. Angry
words were exchanged, and then pistols
We're drawn.
Miss Ransom was killed by a bullet,

Mrs. Amore Unable to Restrain
Joy When Acquitted Of
Martella Killing,

II thank YOU, gentlemen, Will a
sincere heart, that you send ne X
home 10 my dear children"
This is the way Mrs. Josephine Amore,
smiling brightly, thanked the twelve ju-
rors who acquitted her in the Essex
County Court, at Newark. OF the muir
der OF Michael Martela. Mrs Amore
shot and killed Martela as he was
entering her apartment on Aug. 5 last
and her defense was tia: she shot him
TO protect her honor. Her thanks to the
jury created a sensation in court. This
was further increased when she rushed
to the chair where her brother. Dom.
nick Valentino. sat and threw her arms
about his neck and cried:
"Dominick. we are going home"
Judge Ten Eyck ended the confusion
by formally dlschargng the jury.
The authorities don't know where the
woman's husband, Carmine Amore, Is.
He was arrested on the day OF the
shooting. and at that time was suspect
ed of the crime, bu; when Mrs Amore
surrendered and admitted she fired the
shot he was released on 5000 bail. ne

Italy.
The prosecution produced letters writ
ten to Martela in which he was ad-
dressed in the most endearing terms
Mrs. Amore denied she wrote them.
She also denied ever having kissed
Martella. and averred that when she
shot him she feared for her own safety.
She did not, she testified, intend to do
more than frighten him.

POLITICS BOOMING
ON CRESCENT BAY
ELECTION Is MAIN TOPIC AT
SANTA MONICA
President Alf Morris Says He Has
Had Enough, but Ralph Bane
and Hemingway Are
busy
Especial to The Herald ]

SANTA MONICA, Oct. 7.-Politics
here is becoming the sole subject under
discussion as the time approaches for
circulating petitions for candidacy.
New candidates for the various city
offices are coming out gradually, usu-
ally upon the urgent request of
friends" AS the election this year is
strictly non-partisan, prospective can
didates are feeling their way and ascer-
tanning the degree of their popularity
before declaring themselves.
Ralph Bane has let it be known that
he would like to be reelected city
treasurer, and City Clerk Hemingway
also has said as much. Both are quiet
ly discussing their prospects, which
their friends declare are very good,
among the voters.
President Alf Morris of the council
doesn't want another term. He said
today that he had had enough of poll
tics and wants to quit.
my friends want me to be a candi-
date for reelection" said Morris today,
"but 1 already have had too much of it.
The public doesn't appreciate the work
connected with a municipal Office"
President Morris is an admirer of the
commission form of government, now
in operation at San Diego, Galveston
and Des Moines, and thinks Santa Mon
lea should adopt that manner of hand
ling municipal affairs.
