Recruiting officers of the United

day with applications from men
attracted by the possibility of be-

of the last few days has given
this branch of the service great
impetus.

1.-THE fact that the gunboat
Princeton, which sailed yesterday

NOR that she may take other
marines at this port has attracted
many men.

there is just the barest chance of

FEIGNS INSANITY TO
ESCAPE HANGING

DR.. Elmer b. stone, superIn-

believe Cunningham to be insane.
In statement issued last evening
he said:
80 far as l have been able to
discover, Cunningham is not suf-
fering from any deiusion or hallu-
cination 1t is true that he has
contended, and now says he is in
sane. If there is any evidence to
support his contention, we have
not yet discovered it,"
The most sensational feature of
the Cunningham case was his vol
untary surrender and confession
that he killed the woman, when
another man was under arrest
and surrounded by most serious
circumstantial evidence.
