ing the association to have incurred
a deficit of $4,o17.30 because of the
current expenses of the year 1911,
statements made by the officers at
the annual meeting of the Y. NJ. c. A.
last evening, showed that the past
twelve months have been quite sue
cessful, and have been marked by a
broadening of the work of the organi-
Zation.

LAWRENCE A Scene
OF FOUR KILLINGS
Two Men and Two Women
Were Killed by an Un-
known Assassin.

LAWRENCE, Mass, Feb. 3.-A veri-
table reign of terror prevailed here to-
day while police secured the tenement
districts. hunting the murderer of two
women and two men, whose bodies
were found in a tenement room at 1877
Valley street last night. The victims,
Joseph Savaria, % years old, a gradu-
ate Of st. Anne's public school, for
mer member of the United States
navy. and employed recently by a Law
renee ice company; Mrs. Kate Savaria,
20 years old, his wife; Mrs. Annie
Tanguay Dennis, Il years old, and
Shefe Malone aged u. They will be
6ufied tomorrow. -
The bodies of the four persons were
hacked and stabbed in many places.
Covered with blood and with their
faces slashed to pieces, it was diff
cult at first to identify them.
The two women had formerly been
, employed in the upper Pacific mills.
The deed was done by one man, of
whom the police have q description
and for whom they are searching.
Several relatives and acQuaintances OF
the victims have been questioned at
the police station. A little girl, Ida
Muslum, a neighbor of the Savarias
saw the murderer leave the building
and gave the police the description.
Two possible motives have been
found for the crime. Malone is known
to have had about 500 in money on
his person before he was murdered
and it is thought the theft of this mo-
ney may have been the object. Anoth
er suggestion comes from the nature
of the deed and the peculiar character
of the wounds. In each case, fatal
wound was found just back OF the
left ear. made apparently by a slen
der, round stiletto. From this the po
lice think it possible that a vendetta OF
! some motive of revenge may have
prompted the crime. From the condi
tion of the bodies when found it is be
lieved that the four persons were mur
dered about 3 o'clock Friday morning
The Muslum girl told this story to
the police:
"A noise awoke me early Friday
morning. did not know what it was
at first. Then heard a scuffle across
the. hall in the Savarias apartments.

IAN INVESTIGATION
OF SINKING AS
All Attempts to Raise the
Submarine Result I'm
successfully.
National News Association

PORTSMOUTH, Eng, Feb. BY
direction of the admiralty, investiga-
tion of the sinking of the British sub
marine AS by the gunboht Hazard off
Princess Shoal, Isle of Wight yester-
day with loss of Is lives, IL seamen
and four officers, was begun today.
Meanwhile efforts to lift the sunken
vessel from the ocean bed where she
lies went on. Divers worked all night
trying to place chains around the hull
SO that it could, be lifted to the sur
face.
Attempts to raise the sunken sub
marine AS almost cost the lives of
seven men. A giant hawser broke
knocking seven workmen from a light
er into the water. The men were so
stunned that they could make no ef-
forts to save themselves and only the
prOmptness of their fellow workmen
prevented them from drowning. The
A-3 lies in a position which makes it
extremely difficult to adjust chains un-
der her.

South Carolina Democratic
Delegates May Go Free
to Baltimore.

COLUMBIA, 8. c., May 15.-Democrats
Of South Carolina were scheduled to meet
at noon today to elect delegates to the
national convention at Baltimore, to de-
eide whether they shall be instructed and.
IL so, for whom. An uninstructed dele
CATION was not considered improbable.
Five county caucuses have instructed
their representatives at the state conven-
ton for Gov Woodrow Wilson. six in
dorsed him, but sent uninstructed dele
cations and the thirty-one other counties
took no action on the presidential pref
erence.
The contest over national matters had
been conceded to be between Gov. Wilson
and Representative Underwood. Both
Champ Clark and Gov. Harmon were ex-
pected to make slight showings, but
neither was thought liable to figure in the
running, according to men familiar with
the South Carolina political situation.
Spirited fights over the four delegates
at large were expected between forces
aligned with Gov. Coleman l.. Blease and
those opposed to him. The opposition has
put forward Ira B. Jones, former chief
Justice Of the supreme court, for guber-
material honors, which are again sought
by Blease.
In all eighteen national delegates were
to be chosen-two from each of the seven
congressional districts and the four at
large. The convention consisted of 33d
delegates.

Dixon Comments on the Result.

Commenting on the California repub-
lican primaries yesterday. Senator Dixon.
campaign manager for Col. Roosevelt.
said today:
1.-The great Roosevelt demonstration In
California puts beyond controversy the
question of his nomination at Chicago
Certainly, in the face of the California
returns, no republican can longer DOUBT
the temper of the voters of the nation
and no question can longer remain as to
at Chicago If it expects victory In NO
vember. California gives added PROOF
that wherever the republican voters nave
had an opportunity In legal primary to
express their preference they have repu-
dated Taft and declared overwhelmingly
for Roosevelts nomination. Up to date,
nine republican states through pres1den-
tial preference primary laws have recorded
their deliberate judgment as to who
should be the candidate.
Illinois, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin
North Dakota. Nebraska, Maryland,
Oregon, Massachusetts, and California
have elected 274 delegates to the national
convention. In this total only thirty dele
gates have been elected for Mr.. Taft, in
GLIDING the eight elected as Roosevelt dele
gates in Massachusetts,. No man doubts
that the result would have been the same
in every other republican state had the
voters themselves had the opportunity
to say who they wanted for their presi-
DENTAL candidate. The Taft machine.
which tried to force his nomination,
cannot live in front of this demonstra-
ton Of the wish of the republican voters
themselves To nominate him under
these conditions. would be for the re-
publican party to commit suicide"

Mrs. Claude U. Stone Of Illinois. seconded
1t. Mrs. William Patterson Borland OF

Mrs. Borland urged that the method
of organization. assuming the designa-

opportunity being afforded to all who are

against REORGANIZATION. indicating the
existence Of the Congressional Club as

ion that 1t would not be proper to call
the club congressional" without taking
the matter to the wives OF the congress
men. Mrs. George then withdrew her
motion.

the meeting. which was held In her home,
announced later that the propriety of the

ROOSEVELT MEN BOLTPARTEANS FAR APART
Ignore Olive Branch From Taft
Forces in Washington
State Convention.

ABERDEEN, Wash, May 15.-DeIe-
gates to the republican state convention
here today had divided into two conven-
lions before sun-up. The Roosevelt adj
herents, ignoring what they chose to
consider an olive branch extended by
the Taft forces last night in the seating
OF Roosevelt delegates from Pierce
county over Taft delegation. announced
that the Pierce county men would not en-
ter the theater picked by the committee on
arrangements Inasmuch as the conven-
ton call specified Aberdeen as the place
Of meeting, but did not name any particu-
lar spot the Roosevelt men asserted that
their standing before the national con-
vention could not be injured by holding
the convention in another hall, which is
what they decided to do.
About 300 seats were contested, and the
predominance of Taft men in the central
committee led the Roosevelt adherents
to believe their cases hopeless unless
they held a separate convention. Their
decision was confirmed when the commit
tee decided to seat the so-called hand
picked delegation from King county
(Seattle) headed by former United States
Senators John L. Wilson and Samuel H.
Piles.
