DEMANDED THAT LOVE

STARTLING STORY TOLD BY
BROOKLYN WOMAN
Declares That Admirer Turned on
Gas and Choked Her.
Accused In
Jail

NEW YORK, July flames Morey
is in the Brooklyn police station charged
with having tried to force a young
woman to die with him. Miss Gather
ine McCauley is in the Long Island
College hospital recovering from her
startling experience with Morey.
The man had become greatly attached
to Miss McCauley, but her parents
objected to his attentions, and she in
formed him that he must not call on
her again. A letter from him induced
her to call at his boarding house, and
there, she says, he tried to kill both
himself and her.
"At first, he wanted me to sign a
written statement that we had planned
to die together and had turned on the
gas" she said, but I refused to dc
this, and tried to get out of the room.
He locked the door, closed the windows
tightly and turned on the gas jets with
out lighting them. I tried to open the
door. but he attacked me, choking me
with his hands and throwing me to
the floor, where he held me until be-
came unconscious"
other boarders smelled the gas. After
the door was broken in, Morey and the
young girl were found unconscious
from inhaling gas

COLLEGE PROFESSOR
CRITlCISES WOMEN
Lecturer in Chicago Summer School
Compares Women Today With
Those of Biblical
Times

CHICAGO, July i7.-Women always
were, are now and probably will re-
main eXtravagant, socially ambitious,
unscrupulous and generally responsible
for a large part of the evils of life,
according to Professor Herbert L. VIII
lett of the University of Chicago di-
vinity school, who lectured on 'The
Social Teachings of the Prophets" at
the university summer school yester-
day.
The professor alleged that women
were "as wicked" in the time of Amos
and Hosea as they are today.
Professor Willett told the summer
school that of all woman's faults her
social climbing was first He blamed
the society germ for the oppression of
the poor and the recklessness of the
rich. and drew anaiogies between the
state of affairs In ancient Israel and
contemporary life.
"The moral levels of a nation can
never rise higher than its womanhood," /"
said Professor Willett. 1T was true in
the times of Amos and Hosea, and it is
true today. Many of the evils of So
ciety have been and are due to the So
cial aspirations and extravaganza of
women.
'In the time of Amos the women were
willing to take money obtained by
bribery. Bribery was one OF tne cohl-
monest evils of the day. The bribes
were used for luxuries for the women.
The women insisted on having the lux
uries.
In more than one way the evils of
the days of the prophets were like
those OF today. Amos hated iniquity.
He was against authorizations in food,
cheating in weights and measures, I'M
fair business combinations and graft
and extortions of all kinds. To read
Amos is like reading a document print
ed yesterday. Every evil of today had
a parallel then"

sions to the strikers force have been
made and by concentrating their eff
forts at No. 2, the largest operated by
the company, the strikers prevented
the opening of the works.
Representatives of the United Mine
Workers of America, the organization
which forced the strike, are busy near
the mines, urging additional minors
to join. 1t was reported today that
many of the men were beaten in their
\ homes last night until they promised
they would not return to work oday.
During a disturbance today riot act
was read and twelve strikers were ar
rested. General Manager Duggan of
the Dominion company. was beaten by
FIVE men.
Another disturbance occurred near
the Caledonia and the No. / mine. At
the latter pit strikers broke into col
liery property and were hriyen out by
the police with drawn reviewers.
The trouble at No. mine prevented
the opening of that plant. The trouble
again opened near mines No. and No.

to work, but were prevented from
gaining entrances by the strikers.
Little police protection could oe af-

estimated at nearly 1000. An attempt
was made to disperse the assemblage
by the use of fire hose, but the water
pressure was too weak and the strikers
remained Il control. The suggestion
that soldiers from the garrison at Hall
