CUSTODIAN ASKS
OPINION ON CIVIL
SERVICE RULING

TRENTON, Dec. 10.-Being of the
opinion that he is protected by the
provisions of the Civil Service law,
and being urged by his friend to
make a fight to retain his position as
Custodian of the State Capitol, John
". Weseman this afternoon forwarded
a letter to Gardner Colby, secretary
and chief examiner of the State Civil
Service Commission, requesting the
commission to ask a further opinion
from Acknowledgement Wilson as to
how the law should be applied in his
case.
Mr.. Weseman, in discussing the mat
ter today. said that he eve asked
for an opinion as to how the law ap-
piled to his position, and could not
see how an opinion given to another
department should be applied TO him.
Mr.. Weseman insists that he is a SUBJ
ordinate to the State House Commits
sion and cannot properly be classed as
the head of a department, therefore
he is protected by the law.

GERMANY WARNS THE
SOCIALISTS IN REICHSTAG.
Chancellor Will Hold Them Re-
sDOnSible for Excuses.

BERLIN, Dec. 10.-Discussing inter-
nal politics in the Reichstag today,
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg
gravely warned the more radical of the
opponents of Socialism that they would
be held to cot for excuses result
ing from their teachings.
The chancellor deplored the factional
spirits of the various party groups into
which parliament was split, and re-
GREETED that the national fundamentals
often were second in party programs
to tactical party advantage. AS for
himself, he declined to identify the
government with any party. He would
not become the instrument of any po-
litical combination. The talk of him
as being the chancellor of the Clerical
Conservative alliance gave the comic
papers material, but left him wholly
Indifferent.

of the court, and agreed on a verdict
without leaving the box. The court
order was entered in accordance with

SLAYER OF MOTHER
TO PLEAD TOMORROW

Dominick Papala, 20, who on March
26 last shot and killed his mother,
Faiello Papala, will probably plead
guilty tomorrow to murder in the Sec
ond degree. His trial was to have
started today, but after the jurymen
had been brought to the courtroom a
long conference took place between
Judge Jay Ten Eyck, Prosecutor Will
bur A. Mott and Borden d. Whiting,
counsel for Papala.
At the conclusion of the conference
II was announced that the trial was
postponed until tomorrow.
1t is understood that Papala has con-
scented to plead guilty to murder IN
the second degree rather than stand
trial for his life. Second degree muir
der carries a thirty-year sentence and
this will probably be imposed on
Papala next Monday, following his plea
in court tomorrow.
