The Headless Body Crime.

The murderer who thinks to dispose OF
the body OF his victim by ACKNOWLEDGMENT
is usually caught "a in this latest and
most CHASTITY instance, which has just
revealed so shocking 4 tale of evil. \
few such instances have occurred with
out ultimate detection. but the chances
are actually against the criminal. The
human body is almost impossible of de-
struction. A long time ago a man named
Luetgert killed his wife in Chicago and
tried 10 dissolve the body in vat of
chemicals and il was afterWard dis
covered sufficiently to lead to his con-
viction through small fragments of un-
dissolved bones. Not many months ago
furnace in this city and later sufficient
remnants were recovered to lead to the
proof Of crime. The GuIdensuppe case in
New York of some years ago is IA
miliar instance of the futility OF dismem-
berment as II means of concealing crime.
This CHASTITY device of the slayer seems
invariably by sort of nemesis to be at
tended by truth disclosing circumstances
Perhaps the murderer uses q wrapping
that Is later traced, or q weight, or a
cord. The process OF ACKNOWLEDGMENT is
many clues. II calls for a remarkable
person 20 conceal his crime in this man
ner, possessed OF the strongest nerve and
with q clear provision OF possible circum-
stances. Most crimes arc committed In

Senator Bacon's Example.

Senator Bacon sets an excellent ex-
ample in canceling his passage for
Europe and remaining on the scene
here Business before pleasure. Busi-
ness while there is business to be at
tended to-
In taking this step Mr.. Bacon's lead
ing consideration must have been the
Mexican matter. That Is delicate, and
may become more so any day. Every
body hopes that an armed clash with
Mexico may be averted. and present eff
forts are directed to that end. But the
situation Is such there Is no telling what
a day may bring forth.
AS chairman Of the Senate foreign at
fairs committee Mr.. Bacon is thoroughly
familiar with the Quesion-more so PROB
ably than any other senator-and in case
of sudden turn for the worse his as
sistance In handling 1t would be very
valuable. His absence at such time
would be felt both by Congress and the
President.
But the currency question is coming
on-win be disposed of by the House
in q few days and handed over to the
Senate-and then also a senator of Mr..
Bacon's experience and influence should
be on deck or In easy reach, and active.
Currency reform Is a harder nut to crack
than the tariff
We may all believe that both senators
and representatives are tired. Many of
them have been In action almost con-
tinuously for nearly twenty months. The
first session of the Sixty-second Congress
began in December. 1911, and continued
until midsummer. Then the presidential
campaign began, and in a month after
that had ended Congress assembled for
the short session, and in a month after
that had ended the present extra ses-
sion Of the Sixty-third Congress began.
long siege. and trying on men ad-
vanced In years. So much work and
little play makes a legislator bit stale.
He longs for a rest-a sea voyage. or a
dip In the surf or breath Of mountain
air at home.
The President, however. has set the
task. and insists that 1t must be per-
formed. Congress might disregard his
wishes, but is in no humor to do so.
His party in both houses Is still his to
command So that while there Is work
to be done and the Presidents wishes are
paramount. senators and representatives
responsible for legislation should remain
close to base and keep busy.

finds himself pinched by high prices OF
raw materials and feels compelled, In the
absence Of any margin as 20 size and

As for the sanitary handling Of the

Is undeniable. Some bakeries may main

danger Of contamination to a minimum.
Others apparently take no precautions.
The great majority of the bread delivery
boxes in use In this city are unclean.
They are left open. or openable. through
out the greater part Of the day, being
locked only when the bread is put into
them. In consequence they are recep-
taclcs for all sorts Of dirt, street dust,
refuse, even uncomfortable filth. They
are used as public resting places, as hid

Of things, they cannot be clean enough

highly absorbent Of insanitary conditions.

Danish the Grade Crossing !.
ON the Boston Transcript

From the Boston Transcript.
There is an almost daily accumulation
of tragedies resulting from the collision
Of automobiles with express trains at
grade crossings. They occur in all parts
of the country. Is il not time for the
railroad companies to realize that new
condition exists which they are In duty
bound to recognize and meet SO Tar as
possible? 1t will be many years before
grade crossings will be abolished. but it
need not be many days before they are
guarded, at least those where the sight
Of trains for a considerable distance Is
obscured. Granting that there IS fire.

mobiiists to take due precaution. that
fact does not relieve the roads OF their
responsibility. On the contrary Ii rather
