Miss Francis L. Taft Writes Comprehensively of the Work of the Association Among the Girls of China Since 1910

In 1910, the National Board of the Young Women's Christian association offered the Christian Association of Wellesley College the opportunity to join with it in establishing a mission in North China similar to the Y. NJ C. A in Peking which is supported by the alumni of Yale and Harvard Universities. Miss Francis Taft was sent over as the first sec rotary and with her assistant she -pent the first year in Shanghai, learning the language, the customs Of the country, and in every way pos sible famliarzing herself with the needs of her new work. This was made difficult by the unsettled con dition of the country during the pO Itical convultions which attended the birth of the newest republic in the foreign concession. From there last fall she wrote a letter back to her Wellesley association which is of in terest to everyone at all interested in our movement for the Y w c. A. in Phoenix. since it shows more clear ly than one could possibly state it in words the dominant ideals in the Y. W. C. A. wherever it is established, viz. to meet the needs of the girls of the particular locality in which it is established and to furnish those girls the realization of their needs under the most proper and helpful conditions possible.

 As you might judge, even if you had not heard, last years work was rather out of the ordinary. We were in the Foreign concession of Tientsir as refugees with hundreds of wealthy Chinese and Manchus who were re fuSeeing also. It gave us un- iQue opportunity, however, to get 1T touch with women and girls who are usually shut away from us.

NEED OF CITY
 |S DIRECTION
Board of Trade Declares for City and County Plan Expert and Brings Mat ter to Attention of Gov crning Bodies of Each

That something more than mere growth 'of a city is a demand of the times; that the growth should be in telligently directed and that there should be a closer understanding be- tween the city and county is the belief of the members of the board of trade. That opinion was given expression in the following resolu tiOn adopted by the directors of the board yesterday and addressed to the county and city authorities.
 July 17, 1913.
 To the Mayor and City Council of Phoenix, To the Board of Supervi- sors of Maricopa County.

 Whereas the growing needs of our city and county are of the greatest importance, and the future develop ment is of the utmost concern, and,
 Whereas the time for considering our city and our county in the light of an advanced and united communi- ty is now at hand, and,
 Whereas many matters requiring careful counsel, extensive eXamina- tiOn and experienced advice must be settled at an early date. and,
 
 large sums of public monies it is ne cessary at all times to proceed with the best information and suggestion that can be obtained,
 Now therefore be it
 Resolved that we request the Ma yor and the city council of Phoenix and the board of supervisors of Mar iCopa county to jointly secure the services of a person competent to give advice and suggestion for the laying out of complete and com prehenSiVe plan for the city and county, not only so far as the same shall relate to the location of public buildings, but in addition, to the pro- per provision for the increase in traffic, the need of park places. the establishment of q union depot, the extension of water systems both for irrigation and domestic use, planting of shade trees and all matters of a constructive nature which affect the future growth and development ot the city and county and we further. Resolve that suggestions for closer cooperation between city and county ! be invited and encouraged and all 1 steps taken that will make this city and county the most attractive sec | ton in the southwest in which tC l live.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcIIl


 NEW YORK, July 1.-The net re- suit of tOday's trading in stocks so far as changes in the level of prices Were concerned was small. Appar- ently from the outset the market would not hold to the pace set yes terday when quotations rose sharply in all quarters. The close found many important stocks showing small losses. Stocks were well taken at concessions but there was falling off in the demand and buyers were unwilling to follow the market up- ward. Unexpected complications in the negotiations between the eastern railroads and their employees may have exercised some sentimental in fluence.
 Petroleum shares were exceptional ly weak. California petroleum sold down five points to 23A; preferred dropped six points to 52. Mexican petroleum 5714; showed a loss of A
 One explanation given for the weakness of these shares was that the closing out of loans by local banks had nccessitated the selling of petroleum stocks which had been put up as collateral. With the approach of the crop moving season with it's heavy demand for money, it is point ed out that the banks will be com pelled to draw tighter lines in regard to extending credit on stock ex- change collateral.
 Bonds steady, total sales, par value million three hundred thirty seven thousand. United States bonds un- changed on call.

READY FOR TRIAL OF CRAIG
FOR MURDER OF DIR. KNABF

Indianapolis Ind, Oct. 2.-EHery-
Thing is said to be in readiness for the
trial before the present term of the
Criminal Court of Dr. William B. Craig,
dean of the Indiana Veterinary College
and Alonzo NJ. Ragsdale, local under
taker, jointly indicted by the Marion
county grand jury on the charge of hav-
ing murdered DR.. Helene Knabe during
the night of October %, 1911. The
case had originally been set for June
%, but went over because the lawyers
for the defense had appealed to Judge
Marley for more time to prepare the
defense. The prosecution has been
ready for long time and it is not be-
lieved that the court will grant any
further delays upon the request of the
defense unless some good reason is
shown.
The trial will, undoubtedly, attract
a great deal of attention, partly on
account of the social prominence of the
two accused men, partly owing to the
mysterious circumstances surrounding
the crime. Both Dr. Craig and Mr..
Ragsdale are wealthy men, have been
well known and respected in social
circles throughout the city for many
years and are we'll connected. Their
indictment on December 80, 1912, by
the grand jury on the charge of muir
der created a tremendous sensation.

Or. Helene Knabe, the victim OF the
murder, was handsome woman OF
thirty-five years, highly respected as
woman and as a scientist of great
promise. She was born in Germany,
the daughter of an engineer in the
German army and came to America
when quite young. She graduated
from the Indiana College of Medicine
and, having specialized in bacteriology,
became bacteriologist in the State lab
oratory of the Indiana Board of Health
A few years ago she resigned to devote
herself to the study of hygiene and
the pathology of child birth. She lived
alone in an apartment on the ground
floor of an apartment building not far
from the business section of the city
and devoted most of her time to study.
Her private life was always believed
to be above suspicion. '~-'
When Miss Katherine Mcpherson,
DR.. Knabe's assistant, entered the
apartment of her employer on the
morning of October "a, 1911, she found
DR.. Knabe dead upon her bed, with
her head almost severed from the
body. Her body was naked, her night
robe rolled up under her arms and a
pillow upon her breast. Miss McPher-
son called physician, who decided
that DR., Knabe had been dead at
least six hours. The police authorities
were notified, but were unable to solve
the mystery of the case. No knife or
any other sharp instrument was found
in the bed room and most surprising
of all, with the exception of a few
drops on the sheet no blood was found
on the bed or anywhere in the apart
ment. There was no evidence of any
struggle and the police authorities
finally gave out the rather absurd
statement that it was a case of suicide.
The Indianapolis Council of Women,
composed of many prominent women,
was not satisfied with the explanation
given by the police and employed R.
c. Webster, a private detective, to in
vestigate the case. 1t was upon the
information submitted by Webster that
the grand jury took ND the case and in
dicted DR. Craig and Mr.. Bagsdlle
1t was ascertained by the detective
that Dr. Craig, a widower with several
children, was an intimate friend Of DR..
Knabe and frequent visitor at her
apartment. She also frequently visit
ed him at his home. 1t i alleged that
DR.. Knabe wished DR.. Craig to marry
her, but that he did not want to do so.
It was further ascertained that DR..
Knabe visited the Craig home on the
evening before her death, under the
pretext to return book she had Dor.
