TO INCREASE SEVERITY.
Several Bills Inflicting Greater Penal
ty for Kidnapping in New York.

Albany. n ". March 24.-The kid
nappi;lg of Willie Whitla has had the
effect of causing the introduction OF
several bills in the Legislature design
ed to make more severe the penalty
for such a crime in this state One
bill goes so far as to make the PUNISH
ment death or life imprisonment, as
TIE jury may determine. Another blli
makes the maximum penalty life m
prsonment.
The maximum penalty under the
nresent law is imprisonment for -
years. A third bill makes the punish
ment imprisonmcnt from five to 30
wears.

THREE MILL RATE.
State Tax Rate Likely to Remain Un-
changed.

There is a strong probability that
the State tax rate will be fixed by the
present Legislature at three mills This
is the same rate as that determined by
the Legislature of two years ago AL
though the total amount of appropria-
tons will be somewhat larger than
two years ago ii is believed that
enough increase in revenue will be af-
forded by certain tax measures now
on their way to passage not to change
the rate

Sharon. Pa, March 2i.-Secretly and
mysteriously. practically the entire
Nhitla family is now en- route for Cleve-
land for the purpose of. it is said. public
" to view yand attempt to identity the
man and woman suspects under arrest IN
that city in connection with the abduc-
ton.
Tnoficiallv. however. sensational ru-
mors indicate that the woman suspect at
one time has been closely associated win
the Whitla family and it is believed Il
story other than one of the Kidnapping
is about to become known.
1t is said that efforts will he made 10
prevent the publication of this story ana
for this reason many members of the
WhitIa family departed for Cleveland I'M
expectedly today. The fact that Harry
Forker and his son, relatives OF Mrs.
Whitla. were in the party was of the
greatest interest to Sharon people
The absence of Frank Fl. Buh. the mil
lionaire member of the family, was COM
mented upon freely.
MANY rlmors are rife this afternoon.
IT is said that incidents happening num-
Der of years ago have been suddenly
1t is alleged that n divorce suit. which
occurred some time ago. is playing an I'M
nortant part in the kidnapping case at

fair.
The informations made here this morn
ing were destroyed and new informatlohs,
charging John Doe and Mary zoe
with abduction, were substituted me
cause of doing this is said to nave pee''
due to mistakes made in Cleveland.
No news was given out fro mthe Whitia
office today, previous to Mr.. Whitla's de-
narture for Cleveland. The utmost secre-
Nv was observed by all concerned In the
case. This attitude is due to the late de-
yelopments in the case.
