TRY To FAsTEN SISTERS MURDER
ON GIRL or Bu|GHTED CHILDHOOD.

CONTINUED From Page One.)
dust on Elizabeth's lips proved to
be strychnine.
fhe theory is that the poison
was administered in coffee.
Stoutly she has maintained her
innocence, though she has sealed
her lips against telling anything of
what happened just before she left
her home. Then the police began
unearthing her record, and pitt
full tale of blighted childhood it
has proven to be.
When Katherine was a wee baby
her mother died of the fever. The
father was poor. All of the chill
dren but the baby were sent to an
orphanage. Katherine was taken
by a kindly German woman, Mrs.
Katherine Moloture, who soon
grew to love the blue-eyed girl as
her own daughter.
But she spoiled the child, her
neighbors say, and up to the time
she was years old Katherine had
been allowed to have her own way
in everything. Mrs. Moloture was
possessed of a considerable for
tune, so Katherines spending
money came freely.
But then--the foster mother
died. In the meantime Rather
ines father, Gothardt MANI, had
got on his feet and had fetched
his other children back from the
orphanages.
When Mrs. Moloture died MANI
sent for Katherine, and she came
"a stranger to her own flesh and
blood. At first there was some
sort of an effort made to receive
her as one of the brothers and sis
ters, but soon, because she was
willing to work, it became easy to
regard her as a servant, a kitchen
drudge who would work for moth
ing.
Before, Katherine had had fine
clothes and opportunities for en-
ioyment. Now her clothing be-
came whatever the older girls
could spare. And the pleasure
trips to cheap theaters and into
the country never included her.
She always stayed at home to do
up the work.
Finally she rebelled, and that
brought her whippings of terrible
humiliation for her, because she
knew she was growing up. Beside
Elizabeth's body was found a let
ter from her sweetheart. Part of
1t read:
81 hope the kid (Katherine) is
behaving herself and not giving
you any trouble. If she does, just
give her a good licking. If that
doesn't do any good, say, I will
come down and tend to her."
So any frequenter of the MANI
house felt the right to maltreat the
poor little drudge. 1t was noto-
rious-the treatment she received
The neighbors have seen MANI
beat her with sticks in public.
s OF course she rebelled, but the
whippings and the work that fol-
lowed only became the harder. In
January she ran away from home,
4 taking some of Elizabeth's finery
with her. When she was found
Elizabeth had the police bring her
home again. After that only bit
ter words were ever spoken by
the two girls to. each other.

Manufacturers Say Winter In
ventory Would Be Disas-
trous to Business.
IN MIDST OF THE SEASON
President Taft to BE DeIuGed by Tele-
grams Requesting Change of
Corporation Tax Measure.

Farm implement manufacturers de
clare that they would rather face the
possibility of being sent to Jail than to
comply with the provisions of the new
federal corporation tax The law re-
quires to take an inventory of their
assets on or before Dec. 81 of each
year. The winter months are the
busiest of the year The closing down
of these establishments during the rush
season for a period of 80 days-the
time needed for an inventory of any
agricultural plant of substantial size
would result in an enormous loss, it is
declared.
Members of the National Pillow asso-
citation particularly are active in urg-
ing that it would be better to fail in
law than be subjected to large finan-
cial less.
We are willing to go to a reason
able length toward complying with the
statute, but we do not propose to shut
down our plants and suffer a heavy
loss in order to obey an unjust law"
said one pillow manufacturer. "Decem-
Der is one of the busiest months of
the year for us, and we simply cannot
afford to shut down for so days"
What Law Provides.
The law provides that any person au-
thorized to make a report concerning
the assets Of a corporation who re-
turns a false report with intent to
evade the corporation tax shall be
fined not exceeding $1,000 or be impris
oned not exceeding one year. or both.
"A bookkeeper's inventory of a man
ufacturing concerns assets might be
construed as an evasion of the law,
and the officer of the company author
lied to make it might be sent TO jail
