 New Haven, March S.-The first and only positive Identification of Joe Mitchell as the man seen walking to- ward the scene of the murder on the day Bronislaw Kulvinskas' body was discovered in the woods near Union City, was made today in the Kritch- n-MitchelI murder trial, by Mrs. Mary Murphy. of Union City, during her testimony on questioning by the defense.
 Mrs. Murphy declared unequivocally it was Mitchell whom she pointed out in the court room, who passed through her back yard in company with So- phia Kritchnaan on the morning of Saturday, September 18 and proceed ed in the direction of the golf links which afford short cut to the spot where the murder took place. She said she could by no manner of means be mistaken in her Identification of Mitchell.

PRICE, TRENTON'S CRACK lNFIELDER
 MAY COME HERE

Manager McCann received letter today from the manager of the Tren- ton team of the Tri-Srate league that he is willing to trade Shortstop Price of his club for either tRube" Pol lard or tsCy" Miller of the local team. ] he letter states that Price is dis satisfied with Trenton and wants to get away, and has expressed a de- sire to get into the Connecticut league. Manager McCann stated that the deal looked good to him and that he might turn over the ''Rube," but he could not see letting Miller get away. In his opinion Cy will be the big noise of the Connecticut cir cult this season. McCann says that he has seen Price in action, and that he looks good to him. APrice's record last season with Trenton in III games was a fielding average of .91j and c1outfng for .246 which is some little bit for infielder in the Tri- State where the pitchers are most all ex-big leaguers. He ought to puE cn at least forty or fifty more points iE this organization. Manager Me Cam stated that he has decided not to take Shortstop Beaumiller turned over to him by the Brooklyn Ma tiohals. He has looked up this mans record and found that it will not suit for his team. He has so informed the Brooklyn management.

RUSSIAN MARTYRS IN LIBERTY'S CAUSE
 NOW BEING TRIED
NICHOLAS TsCHAKovsKY AND CATHERINE BRESHVOSKY, CHARGED WITH CRIMINAL AC- TIvITY IN SOCIAL REVOLU- TTON
Special from United Press.)

X
 St. Petersburg, March, 8.-The trial of Nicholas Tschaikovsky and Catherine Breshkovsky, two aged fighters in the battle for Russian liberty, charged with criminal activity in the social revoIutionists organization and the central committee, began here today, the proceedings being secret. Tschai- kovsky will attempt to establish an alibi in support of which he submitted today documents from America and England showing that he was in those ceLntTies when his alleged offences were committed.
 Mns. Breshkovslzy wills enter no de- fense, throwing herself upon the leni- ency of the court. She admits the re- volut ionary acts charged against her but owing to her extreme age, she hopes for a light sentence.
 The two are being tried Jointly. Judge Kra shenn1koff, counted one of the se- vereest judges in Russia, is presiding and the prosecution is under the di- rection of Vice. Prosecutor Chervinsky. The trial is before a jury, but the fact that the government disregarded the repeal that came from the entire civi- 1ized world for an open trial, with the accused granted every safeguard under the law, is regarded as insuring a yer dict of guilty, carrying with it inn prisonnent in the Fortress of St. Peter and Paul.
 Mime. Tschaikovsky was permitted to sit by the side ot her husband in court room but no outsiders were present.

Future of Local island Pleasure Re- sort is Matter of Specu=

Tilyou to Give Up Entirely == Capt. Boyton Suggests Control by Local Syndicate==No
 Help from Railroad--Bridgeport to be the
 Home of Capt. R0ytOn.

Captain Paul Boyton has finally broken his long silence regarding his future connection with Steeplechase Is iand, and with characteristic frankness he discussed his plans today. In re- ply to the question, What is to be the future of SteepIechase Island, he said.
 '1 am asked that question fully 50 times every day. Until the present moment cannot give you a decided answer. The island is for rent or for sale. Negotiations have been pending for some time with a New York par ty, 1o take over the island and recon struct it on a large scale.
 "As understand it, this party could not get the desired cooperation of the railway company in reference to prop CT transportation facilities. C. H. Cha pnnan, the local superintendent of that company, evidently sees the ad- vantages and the opportunities which are available, to conduct the resort in a way that it would be profitable to the promoters. He has done all in his power to provide this cooperation which is essential but men higher up in the company will not spend the money.
 Personally I would be more than pleased to see a syndicate of Bridge pcrters take over the island, for have no doubt that such a company could do better than outsiders. At the pres ent time there is not a lease in exist ence upon any privilege upon the iS- land and all of the amusement devices and buildings there are the property of the SteepIechase Company and can be turned over to any parties who take the resort Then local parties might be able to accomplish more with the railway company.
 "As far my experience goes have found the Bridgeport people apprecia- tive for they certainly patronized the island well, when the proper attrac-
