FREE SHOW GIRLS
OF MURDER CHARGE
Assailants Of Millionaire Stokes
Are Acquitted.
Jury OUT ONLY ONE HOUR
Lillian Graham and Ethel Conrad Be-
come HystericaI When Verdict
Is Returned-Plaintlff De-
nounced by Prosecutor.

New York-A verdict Of mot
guilty" was returned freeing Lii
liam Graham and Ethel Conrad Of
criminal charges on which they had
been held since last June for shooting
the millionaire sportsman and hotel
proprietor, w. E. D. Stokes. The jury
reached its verdict in slightly less
than an hours deliberation-5S min
utes to be exact.
When the verdict was announced
the girls became hysterical. Miss
Conrad and they were locked In
fearful embrace when friends rushed
to their aid After holding a trium-
plant reception in the courtroom they
were escorted from the criminal
court building by cheering crowd.
In his charge to the jury Judge
Marcus eliminated the attempted
murder charge from the indictment,
restricting the jury to the charges OIL
assault with intent to kill and as
sault with intent to do bodily harm.
His contention was that the shooting
in the Varuna apartment on the nignt
of June z was not premeditated.
The closing plea of Assistant DIS
trict Attorney Buckner was a vicious
attack on the girls and denunclatlon
of Stokes Of the latter he said:
"ls makes no difference whether
you like Stokes or not. l don't like
him. I'm glad he isn't my father.
My father is minister of the Gospel
and stands for everything Stokes
isn't This has nothing to do with
the case, however. The fact remains
that Stokes was a willy old man who
knew better than to get himself into
a breach of promise suit. There was
not an element of love in the whole
affair 1t was lust on Stokes part
and on Miss Graham's part it was
lucre."
The girls plea was extortion. pure
and simple, he declared, with Ethel
Conyad, "a wildcat and Kitten" as the
prime mover. He said the whole cpl
sode was a blackmailing scheme and
heaped all the blame on Miss Con-
rad, whom he described as "the most
remarkable woman have ever met,
the most astounding combination OF
a wildcat and kitten the world has
known in many years-and only nine
teen years oldi"

PLOT TO BLOW UP
FORT RILEY Barred
Bomb and Torch Spreads Terror 1t
Army Post-Threat Sent
to Officers.

Fort Riley, Kan.-Following the ar
rest OF the Rev. c. n Brewer. Mrs
Anna Jordan and five soldiers, it
developed that for nine months fed
eral army officers at Fort Riley have
been fighting an alleged plot to de
stroy the big army reservation. Not
only were there frequent incendiary
fires and dynamite explosions. but the
commanding officers received frequent
letters threatening them with death
and the fort with destruction.
Night and day since early last sprins
Fort Riley has been under more than
double guard and the homes of com
missioned officers have been guarded
in order to Illustrate threats of their
destruction by dynamite.
Brig. Gen. w. S. Schuyler, command
er of the post; Gel, Eli D. Hoyle. ir
command of the Sixth field artillery
and Col Charles A. P Hatfield were
recipients of letters threatening them
with personal violence and the blow
ing up of their homes.
The first and one of the worst fires
was the night of March IA, when the
quartermaster's storehouse was entire,
ly destroyed with a loss of $250,000
Another fire on March 20 damaged the
cavalry ordnance building.
An attempt not only to burn build
ing, but to burn soldiers. was made
the night of June 8. Mattresses were
saturated with kerosene and set on
fire. Early discovery saved the build
ing and probably many lives
At midnight. June "a, the govern,
ment bridge was dynamited. The
morning of June % fire destroyed
Troop A stable and killed q horses
August an attempt was made to
blow up the water main and cut the
fort entirely from its supply of water
The attempt was only partly success

CALLED BY DEATH
Venerable Author and Diplomat
Passes Away, Aged "a.
HELPED LIBERATE SLAVES
AS Editor of the New York Evening
P4H, He Aided in Election of Lin
coin to Presidency and Became u
S. Minister to France.

New York-John BigeIow, Sr.,
diplomatist and author, died at his
home in this city, aged "a years. He
passed away in the old fashioned
house on Gramercy park that had
long been his residence.
Mr. BigeIow, sometimes termed
the first gentleman of New York
almost the last connecting link be-
tween the great men of the first half
of the nineteenth century and the
present day. Born at Maiden. I'll
ster. county, N. Y, in 1917, of well
known family, he was prominently
associated with the great men and
the determining movements Of the
country during his entire life.
Mr.. Bigelow's series of articles in
the New York Evening Post on the
effects of slavery in the West Indies
worked up some of the feeling which
made Lincoln's election possible in
1850, and at the emancipator's urg-
ing the editor went as minister to
France during the troublous times
of the civil war.

POWERS DEMAND PEACE
IN CHINESE EMPIRE
Such ls Real Meaning of Diplomatic
Notes to Be Presented to Confer
ence at Shanghai

Peking, = Identical notes were pre-
sented by the representatives Of all
the powers to the Shanghai con-
ference of revolutionary and imperial
emissaries looking toward information
al Intervention to stop the civil war
in China.
While these notes, the text OF which
was agreed upon at a meeting OF the
diplomatic corps, merely express the
hope that an early agreement may be
reached, this cooperative action is re-
Garded as tantamount to a notice TO
the contending forces that the powers
will not permit China to drift into
chaos.
Diplomats here are unanimous that
this friendly pressure is essential to
prevent the Shanghai negotiations
from proving futile and also that Chi
mas only hope to escape division and
dissolution is the acceptance of con-
stitutional monarchy
Shanghai, China. = The fate Of the
Chinese revolution is in the hands
Of peace commission, which met
for the first time in the town
hall here. The commissioners, WI
Ting Fang for the reVolutionists and
Tank Shao-Yi, personal representative
of Premier Yuan Shih-Kai, are as
sisted by five delegates selected from
each side.
Both the commissioners expressed
the hope that settlement could be
reached.
The greatest precautions are being
taken to safeguard the life of Tang

assassinated by the people, who have
been advocating his death,
