MRS. KING SPEAKS TO
CHICAGO WOMAN'S ASSN

CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-"The solu
ton of great civic, industrial and po-
litical problems is coming more and
more to be dependent upon women
and the hour for the commercial or
ganization of women has arrived,
declared Mrs. Florence King, as the
greeting to visitors to the exhibition
and congress of education and trade
opening which began today at the
Congress hotel under the auspices of
the Chicago Woman's Association of
Commerce.
Mrs. King, with Mrs. Page W.
Eaton, organized the woman's COM
mereial body one year ago today, and
its membership has constantly in
creased. Eventually they hope to
have it represent the activities of TO-
900 Chicago women in business for
themselves, and some day they ex-
pect to see it affiliated with similar
organizations in other cities in ma
tional federation of woman's asso-
Citations of commerce. The exhibition
includes needle work, paintings, mil
!, linery, gowns, candles and host OF
miscellaneous products, sold in shops
presided over by women proprietors.
1t covers several rooms in the Con-
gress hotel.
1--WE expect this three-day exhibit
4, ton to broaden the public conception
of the business woman" said Mrs.
Eaton today, "and also to broaden
woman's conception of business. The
association was organized to create
better economic conditions for wom-
en-, higher standards of efficiency and
in time to bring together for cooper
alton women engaged in all lines OF
business activity the world over
Exhibitions like this are bound to
stimulate interest in our work"

COURT MAY NOT DECIDE
SULZER IMPEACHMENT CASE

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 14.-The
Sulzerites became elated today on
learning the majority of the judges
of the court of appeals in secret
session yesterday, indicated the be-
lief that the impeachment articles
were faulty, and serious questions
have arose about the right of the
court to amend the articles.
Attorneys this morning continued
arguments on the latter question, and
if the court decides it cannot amend
it must refer the question back to
the assembly or return verdict.
1t the court returns verdict, it is
believed most of the appeals judges
will favor Sulzer.
Prosecutor Stanchfield this morn
ing offered to reopen the case, per.
mitting Sulzer to testify or introduce
witnesses to refute the testimony OF
Mongenthau and Duncan Peck.
Defense Attorney Marshall calleG
the offer a plea in bankruptcy"

BECKER-GUNMEN CASE BE-
FORE COURT OF APPEALS

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. l3.-Argu-
ments on the appeal of ex-Police
Lieutenant Charles Becker and his
four Rosenthal gunmen from sent
ence of death, were begun today be-
fore the court of appeals. The argu-
ments were to have been made some
weeks ago but the Sulzer impeach-
ment proceedings at which the court
of appeals judges sat as members OF
the impeachment court, made neces-
sary the postponement until today
Speedy decisions in the Becker-gun-
men case are expected. Should the
court decide against the condemned
men it seemed certain today that a
further appeal would be taken to the
United States supreme court. This
would mean that the men convicted
of the sensational killing of Gambler
Rosenthal will not be executed for
many months at least.

MRS. HANDY DIES AT
oCHSNER HOSPITAL

Mrs. Alice Josephine Handy, be-
loved wife of Charles H. Handy, died
at Ochsner hospital last night. For
a number of years i'll health was her
portion. For many days past she was
so low the end was not unexpected
The deceased was born in Indiana
in 1864. When she was fifteen years
of age she located in the Animas val
ley with her parents. The long trip
across mountain and plains was made
by OK team, which at that early date
was the safest means of transporta-
ton, even if the most tedious. She
saw the west in the days when the
pioneers had deprivation that we Of
the present cannot appreciate, and
she lived here in the days when the
stern realities had to be met, without
the spirit of the romantic to give an
interest to the existence, but what
ever the time or conditions she solv.
ed her problems in cheerful way
and was ever a factor for good in
the home and the community.
In 1888 this estimable woman be-
came the bride of Charles II. Handy
Four children blessed their union, OF
these only two Charles and Edna
have been spared to them.
The hearts bowed down with sor-
row today have the sympathy of all
those who had the good fortune to
share the acquaintance of the one
they morn.
Tomorrow at 1920 the funeral ser
vice will be held at the Presbyter-
ian church. The remains will be laid
to rest in Greenmount beside the
children of the home who have pas
sed to the Great Beyond.

man, but he exactly fits the idea Of
detective that Mayor Gaynor wrote
about in one Of his many letters. The
late Mayor Gaynor said that strapp-
ing six-footers were poor detectives
because they could be recognized any
where. Cant we get some little
men, even hunchbacks, on the force
and make detectives of them?" he
wanted to know. But the six-foot
regulation still holds and Max can
never achieve the force.
Max's achievement all came about
through his curiosity. He stood on
an east side corner one night, and
saw two men talking earnestly to-
gether. Max showed that he was a
real Sherlock Holmes, for he noticed
that one of the men wore false
"goatee." Soon they flipped coin.
1t rolled down the steps of base
ment. The man without the "goatee"
went down after it and lighted a
match. 1t looked just like he was
looking for lost dime, but when,
few minutes later tremendous ex-
plosion wrecked the building and
brought scared Italians from all the
surrounding tenements, Max knew
that the man with the match lighted
bomb. The boy detective set out,
hot foot and overlook the two men
he had seen. Both were clean shaven.
but in the light from a store window
Max saw that one of the men had
gum on his chin.
Goldstein trailed the pair to res
taurant where he saw them order a
meal Then he ran and called the
detectives. Max was given the cred
it. Since then the boy has done moth.
ing but look for "clues" and he has
found them, too. He has aided the
police to arrest several bomb throw
ers, and has been given permit to
carry pistol. Max says that he
fears for his life"

NEW MAYOR OF NEW YORK
PUTS LID ON GAMBLING

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-"You can
never tell from where you sit" That
expresses the feelings, just now, of
New York's half world. Immediate
ly after all the newspapers carried
stories that the new mayor, Adolphe
Kline, proposed to take the lid off"
Police Commissioner Rhinelander
Waldo personally led a raiding squad
into Chinatown and pulled" a bunch
of gambling joints. Not only that
but he went to the police station sup
posed to govern the welfare of China
town and stripped the shields from a
police captain, sergeant, and sew
eral detectives. OF course Mayor
Kline never said he was going to toll
crate gambling or any kind Of law
lesness and the gamblers had no
right to think that he would, but
the new mayor did say that he would
grant all-night liquor licenses to
some of the restaurants and not en-
force the a. m. closing that was the
hobby of the late Mayor Gaynor. The
Tenderloin jumped at conclusions
They were mistaken when they
thought that Mayor Kline accompan-
led his statement with wink.
Commissioner Waldo's activity
came as a double jolt to the gamblers
and perhaps some of the police who
are supposed to be in the System"
for the first Chinatown raid came
after report that District Attorney
Charles S. Whiteman had consented
to help Mayor Kline run the police
department 1t was said that at the
mayors request Whitman agreed to
keep an eye on the police. Waldo, it
was said, was not to be removed but
he would be a more figure headed,
the mayor and the district attorney
bossing his department. To demon
strate that he is still alive, Waldo at
| once swooped down on Chinatown and
jugged several wagon loads of fan
tan playing celestials. He did not
make n spectacular raid like those
that William Travers Jerome was so
fond of when he was district attor-
ney-such as breaking into Upper
Tenderloin gambling resorts with an
axe-but Waldo was there in person
and was the first man to enter the
raided places. The next night he
conducted some more raids, until
both the gamblers and Waldo's sub
ordinates never know where the COM
missioner will turn up next.

disturbed not so much by the prop
erty damage wrought by the bomb
men, but by the threat of Commits
sioner Waldo that he would reduce
them to the uniform rank If they did
not catch the mscreants. Max came
to the rescue since then he has been
