MURDERED MAN IN CASK
Young italian Had Been
StrangIed to Death.
WEDGED IN A SMALL BARREL
Receptacle Had To Be Taken
Apart Before Body Could Be
Removable CleWs Left.

Philadelphia. Nov 26.-The body of an
unknown italian. apparently about thirty
years old, was found to-day wedged in a
wine cask along what IS known as the Hook
Road. near Norwood, Delaware County, d
few miles south Of this city.
The man had been strangled To death. Tho
rope used for this purpose had been drawn
go tightly about the neck that IT cut through
the skin. The legs ~ the victim werc drawn
up and bound tightly to tho upper portion
Of the body. but even in this crarnped posi-
ton Il was impossible 10 force the body
into the small wine cask. and the murderer
or murderer5 were compelled 10 break the
legs OF the victim at the ankles before II
was possible to nail the head in the cask
The murdered man was feet inches
in height. weighed 10 pounds ana had
black. curly hair and a small black mus
tache. The cask into which the body had
been forced was feet high and only II
inches in diameter. 80 tightly was it
wedged in the lmproyised coffin that tho
hoops had TO be removed from the top of
the cask before the murdered man could be
dragged out. The body was fully clothed
in cloth Of black texture. but there were
no marks on the clothing or anything IN the
pockets by which Identification could be
made.
The spot where the cask was found is
along lonely road and it is the belief Of
the Delaware County police officials that
the man was murdered in one of the many
Italian settlements I'm that county and the
body hauled to the spot where it was found
late at night. The man had apparently
been dead for week.
The cask containing the body had been
lying alongside the road for at least three
days. Persons who live in the neighbor-
hood state that they first noticed it on
Thursday morning. but paid little attention
to It. To-day when some boys were roam
ing through the woods, they noticed the
casl lying by the roadside and attempted
TO pick it up Being unable 10 raise the
small barrel, they made a close examination
and found parts of the clothing of the vic
tim protruding from the cracks of the lid
The coroner was notified, and when he
reached the scene it required almost half an
hour to force the cask open, the top having
been nailed on with small spikes.

VOTES FOR WOMEN IN 1918
Miss O'Reilly Predicts New York
Will Yield Then.

Philadelphia ;ov. 26.-Addressing an en-
thusiastic audience of $500 persons at the
Garrick Theatre this afternoon, many men
being present, Mrs Emmeine Pankhurst,
head of the militant suffragists of Eng
land, made a profound impression.
No less stirring was the address of Miss
Leonora O'Reilly, president Of the Woman s
Trades Union League OF New York. who
predicted that before 1913 the women of
New York would be voting
Mrs. Pankhurst's most emphatic stand
was taken against the "antis" She
prophesied a great victory for the cause
of womans suffrage in England IN 1912, and
said that the we'll fed, we'll kept and shell

benefit her we'll as the working class
that she did not know the conditions eX-
listing among this latter class, and did not
care. t.s4 gF
Miss O'Reilly. whose speech was the SEN
ss ton Of the meeting opened with a trib-
ute to the memory Of Susan g. Anthony
and then launched into strong argument
for votes for women. She said, in part:
There Is no way 10 overcome a preju-
dice except 10 go right through II, and that
is what We are going to do, brothers, be-
cause YOU have made such a mess Of things.
Eve may have been responsible for the ex-
pusion from the garden but the political
quagmire YOU have created is an infinitely
worse offence. We are the natural house
keepers. The men have tried political
housekeeping. butch. Lord,
We are not going TO promise to be angels
after We get the vote. But think OF the
woman who is nearest to you. Is she not
better than you morally? Women are goins
into politics on their morality. Women that
men can't represent ask TO represent them
selves.
one class more than any other must have
the vote. and that is the working woman.
Men and women must stand together. We
women are asking an opportunity TO do our
duty We will get the vote i'm New York in
