CRIMINAL CASES
MAY BE POSTPONED
Enforced Absence of States Attorney
Piper Likely to Cause Continu-
ance in Richards Murder Trial.

State i ATTORNEY a. n u. Piper re-
turned late yesterday from Montpelier
where. as special counsel with the ap-
prOyal of the governor, for the public
service commission. he has been en-
gagged in preparing the case Of the
commission against the Rutland rail
road company. This has been appealed
to the supreme court Of the United
states and Mr.. Piper and the attorney
general arc To leave next Thursday
for Washington 70 present the case.
This enforced absence of the state :
attorney complieatcs matters at county
court considerably. The case of Al
mon NJ Richards Of Bellows Falls
charged with the murder Of Fred /.
Fields, which was set for trial on the
2Sth, will have to be changed as Mr.
Piper does not expect to he back in
time to try the case at that time.
/ The wisdom Of the state i attorney :
course in spending his time on specIa
work for the state at Montpelier wher
there is work for him in his own coun
+ tn is matter that has been discussed
considerably within the past few DAYS
There are a good many persons wlfC
are of the opinion that ii Is more i'm
4 portant for the state 8 attorney I,
give attention to the matters whicl
the people Of the county elected him t
attend to. They cannot understan,
why such al important trial as that o
a. NJ Richards Of Bellows Falls 70
murder should be postponed, nor doe
it seem to them that there should b
the slightest delay on the part of tn
county officials in sitting all the evi
dencc in the latest Halifax shooting
affair. If Mr.. Piper's presence a
Montpelier or Washington is absolute
ly necessary it is argued that he shoul
he given an assistant to attend to mat
ters here.

ord in England to Be
Investigated
TAKEN FROM STEAM
Err TO ELLIS ISLAND
Board of Inquiry to Decide Whether
She Should Be Excluded from the
United States-Claims Her Arrest
Was for Political Offense.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S-Mrs. Emme-
line Pankhurst, the English militant
sufiragette leader, today was denied
admission to this country until a spe-
cial board of inquiry could determine
whether her prison record in England
was such that she could be excluded
from the United States
Mrs. Pankhurst was taken from the
liner Provence to Ellis Island in a
special tug and placed at the immigra-
tion station. A special board of in
quiry, it was announced, would be
speedily convened to render a verdict.
This board must determine whether
Mrs. Pankhurst s conviction in Eng
land involved moral turpitude; if so
she would come within the class ev-
cludcd by the immigration act. To the
inspectors aboard the steamship Mrs.
Pankhurst asserted her arrest and con
viction was for political oficnse.
Should the board finding bc against
Mrs. Pankhurst she could appeal to
the higher authorities at Washington
and might bc released on a bond
pending a decision.
