URGES TAX ON
ESTATES WON
BY N0bLEMEN

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-Supreme
Judge James w. Gerard believes
the state of New York should i'm
pose a tax on foreign marriages and
on all fortunes that are inherited by
aliens within the state.
In an article in Golfers, he ex-
plains that only in this way can the
state capture percentage of the
nobleman's winnings. He will in
troduce bill at the coming session
of the state legislature. In his ar
ticle he says:
1.-THE little American heiresses,
strolling arm in arm up the Rue de
la Paix, peering into the shop Win
dows, and laughingly picking out
the kind of crown they would like
to have on their belongings. are be-
coming quite an economic prob
lem. In recent years but a few fe-
male inheritors of swollen Ameri-
can fortunes have seen fit to marry
in their own land.
II claim that money should be
spent where 1t was made, and II
these girls choose to become alb
sentee landlords and draw what
now amounts to a great annual trib-
ute from the United States to spend
abroad on amiable Italians and
high-priced highlanders, that they
should pay tax"

"UNWRITTEN" LAW FREES
THE SLAYER OF CHUM

In addition he gave him a job.
Dominica, unmindful of his debt
to his friend, made love to his
friends wife. The wife, frightened,
kept quiet for months. One day in
March of last year she sent a
messenger to her husband, and he
hurried home. The story she told
him made him a maniac for the
time.
He rushed to the point on the
railroad where his gang was work
ing. Standing at a distance he
called to Dominica. And Dominica
knew what the call meant. After a
few minutes conversation both
men picked up crowbars and dis
appeared in the woods.
After few minutes Antonio
came out alone. He did not speak
to his men, but walked rapidly
down the track and disappeared.
Some hours later the body of Dom
inico was found in the woods with
the head crushed in.
AntoniO's wife and Antonio him.
self were the only witnesses for
the defense in the trial. They told
the story outlined above, and it
proved to be sufficient.

NEW YORK, Jan. THE "un-
written law was a successful de-
tense In the case of Antonio Dia-
mano, who was acquitted by a jury
in the Queens county court at Long
Island City of murder in the first
degree. The crime of which Dia-
mano stood accused. was one of
brutal ferocity, but the jurors evi.
IDENTIFY believed that his victim,
Dominica Clarello, got an even
chance and, also, what he de-
served. Diamano is young man.
He and Clarello were chums in
bOyhood. Diamano came to this
country four years ago, went to
work as laborer on the Long ISL
and railroad, saved his meagre
earnings and about year ago was
made foreman.
His promotion prompted Dia-
mano to take two momentous
steps. He married a 16 year old
beauty of the Italian colony of
Long Island City and sent money
to Clarello to pay his passage from
Italy. When Dominica came to
New York, Antonio met him and
took him to his home as a lodger.
