WILSON TO PREACH
A NAVAL HOLIDAY

Washington, D. c., Dec. 10.-Presi.
dent Wilson will comply with the
terms of the resolution adopted yester.
day by the house Of representatives by
vote of 1874 to 40 and propose years
suspension Of naval construction to the
powers.
His invitation will be cordially &C
cepted by Great Britain, whose first
lord of the admiralty, Winston Church
i'll, originally suggested a naval holi-
day" Moreover, the British govern
n,ent has let it be known that it will
earnestly back up the United States in
the move the house has advised.
The other great nations are disposed
TO look coldly on the Anglo-American
proposal. Three years ago the house
passed joint resolution authorizing
the president to appoint commission
of five members to act through estab-
lished international agencies for the
purpose of effecting world agreement
for the limitation of ornaments. Presi-
dent Taft sounded the various govern
ments and found them so averse to the
action that he dropped the matter. The
experience of Mr.. Taft was that of the
Roosevelt administration, which on
two occasions likewise suggested the
limitation of ornaments.

alleged to have attacked George Baker

Every effort was being made to keep
the affair quiet today and Baker him
self could not be found. Officials.
however, would not deny that Baker
had been attacked and robbed.
The victim. who is said to have been
conducting a white slave investigation,
was walking in Lake Side avenue yes

Two men, who had evidently been fol-

CRAIG ACQUITTED
BY COURTS ORDER
STATE FAILS TO CONNECT THE
DEFENDANT WITH MURDER OF
DR.. HELENE kNABE.

Shelbyville, Ind, Dec. 9.-Judge
Alonzo Blair today instructed the jury
to dismiss the case against DR.. William
2. Craig, charged with the murder of
Dr. Helene knabe at Indianapolis Oct.
%. 1911.
The motion to dismiss the case was
made by Attorney Henry Span for
the defendant yesterday when the
state concluded its evidence.
The court decided that the state had
failed to connect Dr. Craig with the
crime and also had failed to establish
any motive for it.
DR.. Helene Knabe was one of the
most prominent women doctors in the
state, and at one time was connected
with the state board of health. She
was found dead in her apartment in
Indianapolis on the morning of Oct. "a,
1911, by her Office girl, Miss Katherine
Mcpherson. The police, after long
Investigation reported that DR.. Knabe
committed suicide. Coroner Durham
of Marion county, conducted an indie
pendent investigation for more than a
year. Two grand juries considered
the case but made no report.
Women of Indianapolis became IN
terested and employed private detec-
tive to gather evidence. 1t was on the
detectives report that the third grand
jury which had considered the case re-
turned indictments December 81, 1912,
against DR.. Craig and A. M. Ragsdale,
an undertaken, and administrator Of
the Knabe estate. Ragsdale was in
dicted as an accessory after the fact
and now that Craig has been acquitted,
probably will never be tried.
