The bright weather of
spring makes it necessary to
think of replacing cool weather
garb with something new.
For the dcmi-saison the cos

the above is a delightful ex-
ample with its simple but
cleverly-cut and graceful coat,
to which the appropriate plain
plisse frill of the blouse gives
the requisite finish. The tall,

TEACHER SLAIN
BY FORMER PUPIL
Lad She Expelled Charged With
Wanton Crime.
TRIED TO REFORM HIM
MutIIated Body Of Lydia Beecher
Found In the Bushes AT Poland,
N. Y.-she Had Gone Out At
Night To Mail a Letter.

Little Falls, N. Y-Eugene Gianini,
a 17-year-old boy, just out of pro-
tectory, confessed, the police assert,
that he was the murderer of Miss
Lydia Beecher, teacher in a country
school at Poland, whose body was
found in a clump of woods in the out
skirts of that village.
The boy, who had been expelled
from Miss Beecher's school some time
ago and had been pleading with her
for reinstatement, admitted, the police
say, that he struck the young woman
with a monkey wrench and then stab
bed her to death with a knife.
He told the authorities where the
weapons might be found Only a bare
outline of the confession was given
out by the police pending the putting
of his admissions into writing
Miss Beecher, who was the daugh-
ter Of the Reverend and Mrs. William
A. Beecher, of Sennett, near Auburn,
and who was only 20 years old, taught
school in Poland for two years.
Gianini was one of her most trouble
some pupils. On her complaint he
was expelled from the school last June
and sent to st. Vincent's Protectory,
in Utica, from which he was released a
month ago.
He sought out his former teacher,
told her he intended to do better and
importuned her to visit his parents,
who are reputable and well-to-do peo-
pie in Poland, to explain how he might
be reinstated in the school.
Miss Beecher had been studying for
missionary work and it is believed that
in her desire to reform him she walked
with him and was killed. Charles
Gianini, father Of the youthful prison
er, was a furniture manufacturer of
New York, first coming to Poland to
spend a summer and finally taking up
his home there, about five years ago.
The PARENTS Of the murdered girl ar
rived in Poland to take their daugh-
ter's body home. They had been adl
Vised that Miss Beecher was seriously
i'll, but were grief-stricken when on
passing through Syracuse on the way
to her they saw a newspaper telling
Of the murder.

SPUR TRACK RATES HALTED.
Only Those Railroads Which Have
Been Heard Are Granted Delay.

Been Heard Are Granted Delay.
Washington, D. C.-The Interstate
Commerce Commission Tuesday sus-
pended until July 80 all new tariffs
filed by railroads eliminating allow
ance to industrial railroads with the
exception of those affecting the United
States Steel Corpofation and other
iron and steel companies: These are
permitted to stand.
About 1000 tariffs were suspended.
The suspended tariffs would have be-
come effective at midnight and were
submitted in compliance with findings
in the industrial railways case, when
it was held that allowances and diVi-
sions of rates made by trunk lines
with some Eastern roads operated by
iron and steel companies were rebates
and should be discontinued.
Only those industrial railways which
have been heard by the commission
are allowed to suspend the tariffs af-
fecting them.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion's order provides for certain hear
ings, but no dates have as yet been
set and, as it is not likely they will be
heard before fall, the commission Is
expected to suspend the tariffs further
before the present extension expires.

WANT GUNMEN
GIVEN REPRIEVE
Petition BY Ten Of Jurors Who
Convicted Them.
BASIS FOR THEIR REQUEST
Petition Says Would Be In the Inter.
ests Of Justice To Stay the Death
Sentence Until After the Sec
ond Trial Of Becker.

New York.-Ten of the twelve trial
jurors who found the four gunner
guilty of murder of the gambler Her
man Rosenthal have signed a petition
asking Governor Glynn to stay the
execution of death, set for next month,
until after the second trial of Charles
Becker, the former police lieutenant,
whose conviction was set aside last
month by the State Court of Appeals.
The jurors petition is not signed by
two of their number; one of the two
was out of town when his signature
make known his attitude. The others
stated that their requests was sub
mitted without, on our part, desire to
impeach or impungn the verdict" they
rendered.
In view of the new trial that has
been granted to Becker, the petition
sets forth, "the interests of justice
may require that the execution Of
judgment of death pronounced upon
these defendants upon our verdict be
stayed until there be final determine
tion of the guilt or innocence of the
said Charles Becker, or other disposi-
ton of the case"
Every possibility of error should be
eliminated, the ten jurors pointed out;
hence their request for a reprieve or
stay ito the end that if anything here
after may occur or any information be
procured, or during the trial of Charles
Becker be brought to light which may
rebound to the benefit of the defend
ants, they may have an opportunity at
the proper time, to avail themselves of
such development or revelation"
H. Lionel Kringel, of counsel for
the gunner, will present the petition,
together with a statement making
references to the opinion of the Court
of Appeals in the Becker case and vari-
GUS petitions, among them one by the
gunmen, Dago Frank Cirofci, Lefty
Louie Rosenberg, Harry Horowitz
(Gyp the Blood, and Whitley Lewis
Jacob Seidensher).
The four request, first, that the
judgment of death be commuted to
"such term of Imprisonment as the
Governor may seem just and proper"
and second, that the execution of
judgment be stayed and reprieves be
granted until after the final determi-
nation of the indictment" against
Becker.

Washington, D. C.-The House of
Representatives Tuesday night, after
one of the most spectacular legislative
struggles in the history Of the nation,
voted to repeal the provision of the
Panama Canal act exempting Ameri-
can vessels from the payment of tolls
The vote on the repeal bill was 247
to 161, a majority of Sc votes in sup
port of the personal plea of Woodrow
Wilson, President of the United
States.
This verdict on the issue which has
absorbed Congress for many weeks
came at the close of a stirring day
made memorable in the annals of the
House by a party division which
found Speaker Champ Clark, Majority
Leader Underwood and other Demo-
cratic chieftains, lined up in open op-
position to the President on an issue
which the latter had declared vital to
his conduct of the nations foreign
policy.
The result was but the beginning
Of victory for the administration in
the first struggle within the party
since Democracy took control of the
government year ago the bill goes
to the Senate where the fight will be
renewed with all of the vigor and de-
termination that attended it in the
lower house.
How They Divided.
On the final vote, 22O Democrats in
the House stood by the President, CIV
ing him in "ungrudging measure"
what he had asked "for the honor of
the nation" in it's foreign relations.
twenty-five Republicans and two Pro
gressives also voted to sustain the
President. Fifty-two Democrats fol
lowed Speaker Clark and Leader I'm
derwood to defeat in their steadfast
determination that the President was
wrong in his decision that toll exemp-
tion for American ships is a violation
of the -Pauncefote treaty with
Great Britain.

not be used to suppress the Ulster op-

ment, stands in the same position, and
his withdrawal from Office is expected.
