FALL|ERES TALKS
 UPON TREATIES Comments on Taft's Efforts to Have Peace Pro-
 pOsals Ratified

Paris, January 1-President Taft's efforts to have ratified the arbitration treaties with France and Great Britain was the special theme of an official speech madC today by President Fallieres at the New Years reception to the diplomatic corps at the Elysee Palace. There was a large attendance of diplomats. among them being Robert Bacon, the American am- bassador.
 Sir Francis L. Bertie the British ann bassador and dean of the dipomatic corps. presented to the French executive the new year feiicltations of the King. He declares that all other members or the corps felt certain that France would con time to be a powerful aid in every work having in view the welfare of all nations. He added that this permitted the hope that the generous initlative of the Presl- dent of the United States in favor of the extension of arbitration to international o,lestlons. would be productive of larger results during the coming year.
 aTbe countries we represent" contipued Sir Francis, Know that they are sure to find in France a powerful auxiliary With which to obtain these results.'
 Responding ifesiueit raiiei, ,s-r France already could with modesty e'din' her part in the initiatives thai nave oeeh taken from which civilization ID reapihs benefits.
 Like you, NIr. Ambassador,' the Pres ident continued, i've congratulate our selves that we have seen during the past vaar the President of the United States give his precious adhesion to the princi- 7ias of arhitration.. It may be repeated ihat ths application Of this principle will determine for men and things decisive method for the pacific solution of inter national differences.

JURY HOLDS MRS. GODAU FOR
 MURDER OF WASSERLEBEN

Fred Wasserleben tried to assault me and when I fought him off by tearing his shirt almost off, he fired a pistol shot at me, but jumped out of the way.
 Fred then threw the gun on the bed and laid down and told me to kill him: that if did not do it. some one else would sooner or later. I fired she into his head. He then fell out of the bed in the death struggle, and sooner than hear him moan and see him suffer. l finished him.
 'I then wiped up the floor with an old blanket to get rid of the blood and tried to hide everything. even cutting the bullet out of the window frame he fired at me. l then put Freds police coat on, him, buttoned 1t up and tied rope to his arms and dragged the body into a wagon.
 'I hauled the body through the rain to the pond, backed up the wagon into il and dumped it out' ,, -s.5 sf. .ss5s.
 siesFfn Palmer believes that the son, William Green. helped his mother haul the body of Wasserlaben to the pond, as the officer is q powerful man, while the old woman is frail in stature.
 Green denies strenuously any knowledge of the crime Mrs. Virginia Wasserleben, wife of the murdered man. is also under arrest in connection with the crime and says that while she knows nothing of the crime, that she does not believe that her mother could have dragged the body down the stairs and into the wagon un- aided.
 Charles Stein, first husband of Mrs. Godau, the self-confessed murderess, was shot and killed in field on his farm, sup posedly by marauders. He carried sev- eral thousand dollars life insurance.
 The second husband William Green, disappeared from home and was never heard from again.
 Mrs. Godau was arrested for the mur- der of her last husband, William Godau, who was found dead near his chicken house in September of 1902. Mrs. Godau attempted to fasten the crime on a negro. The woman was acquitted. Her husband was insured for 5000 and she received this money after legal fight, detectives being sent here from Omaha. Neb., the headquarters of the Woodmen of the World, to investigate.
 Policeman Wasserlaben carried insur- ance to the amount of s7Oo0 and recently renewed it.

Emperor's Flight Reported

Washington, January I--Although with out formal advice on the subject the state department officials are inclined to believe that China's infant emperor, prob ably the last of his dynasty. already has been spirited away from the Peking palace by his father. Prince Chun, and is now being conveyed to the summer res- idence of the court at Jehol, about 150 miles northeast of Pekin, in the prov ince of Chi Li, or is bound for the an- cient Manchurian capital of Harbin. The place of residence chosen for the young emperor is important. If he should be reared at Jehol. he would be under es- sentially Chinese influences and might be in position to aspire to the throne again when he attains his majority if the re- public should become beset with difficult ties. In Harbin the young emperor would be dominated by Russian influences.
 It was probably easier to get the effl- peror out of Picking than it will be to remove the great treasure which the throne has accumulated in the sTorbidden City This is estimated to amount to as much as ten million pounds sterling. and most of 1t is in gold bullion and silver.

ter from Governor ONeal. dated Decem- Der 30, announcing the resignation of Judge William s. Thorington from the deanship of the law school.
 Judge Thorington has been absent from the university for several years engaged as special master in the talk ing of testimony in the railroad litiga- ton between the state and the contest ing railroad companies. It was ex- peeted that he would resume his active connection with the university as soon as this work was finished and hence his resignation came as a surprise.
 Just who his successor will be is not known. During his absence from the university his place has been taken by w. B. Oliver. acting dean.
 The contest for the Mobile vacancy is a lively one with Dr. Scale Harris and pr. T. IT. Frazer the ieading candi- dates.

Chinese Celebrate

New York. January LA celebration of
 the establishment of the Chinese republic
 coincident with the inauguration of it's
 first president was held in Chinatown to-
 day. Hundreds of Chinese rushed to their
 barbers early in the day and had their queues cnt away, severeing, as they said, the last symbol of Manchurlal. At noon
 when 300 Chinese gathered for the cele-
 bration not a queue was sen.
 The Chinese also shook off their san-
 dals and in heavy American shoes climbed the stairs of the old Joss House in Mott street which was re-christened 'the Chi-
 nese public hall and gravely bowed
 before a large portrait of the new presi- dent, pr. Sun Yat Sen.
 The hoisting of an enormous flag of the new republic on top of the old Joss House was the signal for cheers which would have done credit to any American football crowd. Chung Hua, Chung Hua, Hoola, Hoola, Vivela Vivela Chun-Chun, chun Chun,' fairly shook the old walls
 of the Chinatown districts.
 Chinese girls and boys dressed In Amer ican fashion. sang a new Chinese na- tional song entitled ''The Con of the Chi nese Republic to the air of America, '' the sentiment of the song was somethih,, as follows: .Dr. Sun Vat Sen has sown fin eseed and grown the republic, All the Chinese should be patriots of one heart one love and one life for their country and liberty and freedom. Manclu rule is gone and the Chinese shall remain forever free"
 More than 500 new flags were displayed in the district together with portraits oi the new president There was parade through the district and speech making at the public hall The shops contributed their entire supply of firecrackers hun dreds of thousands of them being thrown from roofs and balconies.

 who was shot to death in his home Sat
 urday, the coroner's jury today rendered a verdict that his death was brought about by gunshot wounds in the head. received at the hands of Mary T. Godau, his mother-in-law. It was also recom- mended that Wasserleben's wife and
 brother-in-law. William Green, be held as accessories.
 At the inquest Mrs. Godau testified that she shot wasserleben while he was in bed. because he invited her to kill him after he had offered her an insult. She declared she dressed the body and dragged it downstairs, hiding it in the darkness on the front porch, in order that her child ren might not know of the deed Later, slte said, zhe .7alveyed 1ne corpse to a lonely spot at distance from the house, where it was found Sunday morning. She wanted to make 1t apparent. she said. that the murder was committed by thugs.
 Mrs. Godau declared repeatedly that her daughter and son were innocent. Ad- ditional testimony was adduced at the inquest to show that Wasserleben had ben slowly poisoned by his mother-in-law and others for weeks before he was shot. Mrs. Mary T. Godua, who confessed to the atrocious murder of her son-in-law, Policeman Frederick Wasserleben. and
 then threw his dead body into pond of water, added more horrible. details to the deed today when in a third confession she admitted killing the officer while he was in bed.
 She shot him again as. he rolled off to prevent his lingering suffering, then dressed him in his uniform and carried him from the house in wagon.
 Mrs Godau when greeted by newspaper men this morning. stated that she did not sleep much last night and said further:
 How could one sleep when they knew that on New Years day they would be in the county jail?'
 The woman in her confession said:

Reported in Peking

hSPVttto ttt NhAhS
 Peking. January 1.--An army of 1000 revolutionaries attacked the city of Hankow yesterday evening. An im perialist army, estimated to number 30, 900 men, occupies the city.
 According to reports the leaders of the imperialists are delighted with the outbreak of hostilities as this will give them an opportunity of avoiding the result of the national convention agreed to by the edict' of the imperial court and by the representatives of the republic. By the terms of the agreement delegates from all the prov inces of China are to meet to decide the future form of government for China and the imperialsts are of the opinion that the national convention is likely to culminate in the victory of the republican party.
 Hankow was the scene of severe fighting between the two armies on several occasions before the recent ar mistice was decided upon.
 Much depends whether the fighting near Hankow is authorized by repub- licans and whether it will be followed up Dy lHe IepuDlicdnS UT i1lpefldiiStS The Associated Press is informed that the news of the attack was welcomed by Yuan Shi Kai who will now await the issue of the battle. If the impe rialists are victorious 1t will give the throne brief leave of life while h reverse to the imperial arm it is be- lieved would precipitate the abdica- tion of the Emperor.
 yr9 nseard
 The Daily News, the organ or the for eign office. proposes in an article printed today that the republicans and impe- rialists prevent the partitioning os the country and save 1t from anarchy by forming united government which shall control affairs until an assembly can be elected and the country shall be turned into a republic or remain a monarchy. This indicates even Yuan Shi kai's dread of q partitioning of the emperor. There is little doubt that he prefers the aDdi- cation of the emperor to this.
 Tang Shao Y Yuan Shi kals repre- sentative at Shanghai. has rendered his resignation as a peace delegate, but Yuan has refused to accept 1t.
 II is said that the reason why the im- perial princes have refrained from do- mating large sums of money 10 aid the government is that they feel the gov ernment's cause Is a hopeless one and also because some of them seriously dis trust Yuan Shi Kai
