WOMAN IS MURDERED
FOR TWENTY FRANCS
Three Young Men in Paris,
However, Meant Only to
Carry Out Robbery.
Special cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegrar to The Star.
PARIS, July 13.-Three young men have
been arrested in connection with the mur-
der Of Nine Lack. the old widow who
kept small hotel at the corner of the
Rue de Chabroi, and as one of them has
made full confession there does not
seem to be the slightest doubt as to their
guilt. Not one of them belongs to the
apache fraternity. They were all earn
ing their living honestly, and the only
explanation given by the man who has
made clean breast Of II was that they
wanted more pocket money and so deter
mined on robb!ng the old landlady.
According to him the idea emanated
from q man named Cousin, who took the
room in which the murder was committed
He had already lodged several times in
the house. giving different name when
ever he appeared. He told his accom-
plices that as Nine. Lack was deaf and
her sight also defective they had an easy
task before them and they consented.
Expected Robbery Only.
They understood that it was to be a
simple case of robbery as there was no
suggestion of anything worse. A rem
devious had been made that night at a
wine shop in the neighborhood. and it
was Cousin who first went into the hotel
He ascended the staircase with the land
lady. the others following.
few minutes later they saw Cousin
seize Nine. Lack by the throat and press
1t tightly. This man. whose name is
Troufdard, says that when he perceived
what Cousin was doing he drew back and
would have fed II a tenant had not come
up the staircase. He sprang forward and
extinguished the candle. and when the
tenant was in his room he helped the
others to gag and bind the unfortunate
woman.
"She died without uttering a cry" he
adds, and we then ransacked the furni-
her chamber twenty-one francs, which we
divided between US as soon as we were

7. R. APPEALS To
SOUTH ON TARIFF
Other Party Platform Offers No
Advantage to Producer, He
Tells LouiSianans.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept EN- this
rigldly Democratic state Colonel
Roosevelt today made an appeal to
the Democrats to support the Progress
sive party. The ex- president assailed
the Democratic house for it's recent at
tempt to remove the tariff on sugar.
The New Orleans address of Colonel
Roosevelt, coming after his long jump
from Jackson Miss, is really the first
elaborate expression of his reason for
asking Democratic support in the
South. He made his appeal on the
ground that neither the Republican nor
the Democratic party has tariff plat
form that promises anything advan-
tageous to the producer. The colonel
took the ground that it Is time the
South broke away from the old theory
that. right or wrong, it must adhere
10 the Democratic party. He argued
that the South, by Joining the Pro
gressive party, would make the first
step in asserting itself In the affairs of
the nation at large.
Last night Colonel Roosevelt passed
through Mississippi. He holds no false
hopes that that state may be changed
in a short campaign, but he does have
prospects in Tennessee. while Louisiana
Is rated as a. state where Progressive
party principles may find fertile ground.
The Bull Moose candidate reached
New Orleans shortly before noon today.
He was given cordial reception in
the Mardi Gras city and was put at the
head of great automobile parade
through the crowd-lined streets Of the
,ity. The colonel was offered either a
private or public luncheon and he
those the former.
Colonel Roosevelt and his party will
leave tonight for Alabama and Georgia.
on Monday the colonel will double back
into Tennessee, for that faction ridden
state. he considers, offers unusual OPP
portunities for the Progressive party.

history of single term wrecked a great
and historical political party"
I can not support him" the states
man continues, because he is utterly
reactionary and grows more so every
day"
