The court sentenced the prisoner to States prison for life.
 Bissonnette's counsel. Attorneys John c.

It was in this particular that the Su- preme court reversed the lower court lenged by counsel for the accused and by the State;- the court has ordered an extra panel of 35 jurymen drawn.

Special from United Press)

Vincennez, Ind, Oct. 3-Edward Gibson, @, a wealthy oil operator who amassed fortune in the Illinois oil fields, was shot and instantly killed early today. Menlo B.

JUDGE BALDWIN'S
 DECISION FAVORED
 BY THE MATTERS

At the county convention held on Saturday, Secretary of the Connecti- cut Federation of Labor and a prom inent member of the United Hatters of North America told where the Uni ted Hatters stand upon the question of voting for Simeon B. Baldwin for governor. He said, +rIt has been de- clared from certain sources that the United Hatters of North America would not support Judge Baldwin be- cause of decision he had given against the matters. I want to say that the United Hatters have no i'll feeling against Judge Baldwin for the decision he gave was benefit and not a. curse to the organiza ton. This great jurist in his decision pointed out the defect in the law concerning the hatters' label and with the decision to guide them the United Hatters went to the legislature and had the law changed so that the label has stand ing in this state and all other states. If Judge Baldwin had not pointed out this defect from the bench there is grave doubt of where the United Hatters would have stood in the greater battle they were to have in the courts. I feel and I think every other member of the organization feels that Judge Baldwin had done the organization a great service when he pointed out to them how to in trench themselves for the future.''

TWO MERCHANTS AND
 FIVE YOUTHS HELD
 FOR MANY BURGLARIES
Bail of $500 Required for Appearance of All the
 Accused in Superior Court

Five young burglars and two store keepers alleged to have been inpli- cated with the lads in the disposal of their loot, were held for trial in the Superior court after a brief ar raignment in the city court today.
 The trial of the seven is the out come of painstaking detective work on the part of Louis Saliwitz, an East Side shop keeper whose store they had been entering for several weeks, with keys.
 Six were charged with burglary and one with receiving stolen goods. The burglars were Charles Dusch, Frank Saksa, George Kylatz, John Vantush. James Kovach, and Stefan Zfdzik, the last storekeeper at 768 Ha1ett street and the recipient of the stolen good is Michael Kriscak, another store keeper at 113 Church street
 SaIiWitz obtained confession from two of the burglars who were. in jail for assault, and from the informa- ton thus obtained. presented enough evidence before the police to allow them to make the other arrests
 Charles Dusch, the first aside from the two in jail, to be arrested, was found hiding in a trunk in his home in Madison road when the police went there early Saturday morning to arrest him. Bail was fixed at $500 in each case.
 The property of the store keepers is tied up in civil suits brought by Siliwitz.
