19 Year Old Son of Wealthy Manufacturer of Hud- son, N. Y, Accused of Killing Chauffeur CIute
VICTIM WAS SHOT IN BACK OF HEAD AND ROBBED
By Passenger Whom He Was Driving from Albany Troy April 1, 1913|Property Belonging to Clute Found in Eaves of House Where the Youth Stayed Night of the Killing Led to His Apprehension.

Albany, N. Y, April 17-Malcolm
 Clifford, Jr., the 19 year old son of a,
 wealthy manufacturer of Hudson, N.
 r., tonight is in jail here charged with
 the murder of Frank J. Clute, a chauf-
 feur.
 Cute was killed on April 1, 1913,
 while driving an unidentified man to Troy from here. The passenger shot Clute in the back of the head, robbed him, threw his body into a ditch and fled. The slayer is known to have worn a gray overcoat and a light fe- dora hat.
 On that night Clifford, who had been expelled from a private school month previous but never had gone home nor notified his parents of his dismissal, | left the house of friend. Derrick Boardman, in Troy, ostensibly to at | tend a dance. He was garbed in a | dress suit, a gray overcoat and a light fedora hat, it is said. Instead of go- | ing to the dance he immediately dis | appeared.
 Several hours later Clifford appeared | at the dance. Witnesses before the l grand jury today said his clothing was l soiled. The next morning, it was tes- | tified, he put his overcoat in one | friends suit case, his hat in another | borrowed a cap and left for home. Recently property belonging tc l Clute was found under an cave of the | house where Clifford stayed on the | night of the killing.
 A pair of gloves of the same brand | Clifford was wearing when detained by
 detectives, were found near Cute:

body. These detectives declared Gif- ford attempt to hide when they appre- hended him at Chatham, Mass, last Tuesday, while on his way to a pri- vate school at Williston, Mass. He was brought here and his detention kept a secret even from his parents until to- day.
 Cute was shot with an automatic revolver. Authorities say Clifford own
 ed such a gun. Clifford could drive a
 machine. An attempt was made by
 the slayer of Cute to start his au-
 tomobile after the killing. Footprints i in front of the crank showed this. The
 footprints have been preserved and
 now are in the custody of District At
 torney Harold D.. Alexander, who ob-
 tained the indictment. Detectives worked unnecessarily on the case for several weeks after the murder. Interest in it was revived when Clute's belongings were found in the Boardman house. Henry Boadman, father of Derrick Boardman Gimord's friend, then communicated with the authorities. The grand jury ] quickly returned an indictment and to- | day Clifford was arraigned before Su- ] preme Court Judge Chester. As he had
 no attorney, Mir. Alexander entered a
 pla of not guilty for him. Gifford's father was expected here | tonight.
 i The boy bears a good reputation in ! Hudson. Of recent years he has been | away at school much of the time. He i refused to make any statement. There ] is nothing to indicate that he ever knew Clute.

Which President Wilson Insists that Huerta Must Comply with as Amends for Arrest of Sailors,
REJECTS IDEA OF SIMULTANEOUS SALUTE"
President Wilson Stands Firmly for Literal Compliance With the Original Demand Many Officials Think Ma jory of the Ships of the Atlantic Fleet Will be on Hand When Salute is Fired.

United States to answer the salute Tn accordance with international custom There are some who believe that the United States should have refused ab- solutely to consider the request for a return salute; that the fiat demand should be salute the colors!" and that this government then should consider acknowledging the apology.
 Let Huerta salute" said Senator Chiffon; then we will make up our minds about returning the salute.
 Senator Sutherland 8 member Of the foreign relations committee, while up holding the action of the administra- tion in refusal to consider "a simultan- eous salute" Is one who believes that dickering over terms of the reparaton weakens its effect. At most, the terms of reparation are valuable only for their moral effect he argued, and Quibbling over terms only can serve to weaken that effect.
 Ultimatum is IrrevocabIe. "The ultimatum to Huerta is irrevo- cable' said Senator Shively, acting chairman of the foreign relations com mittee. He must salute the colors as this government has demanded or minstration leaders and many republi- cans have satisfied themselves that to return the Mexican salute would be in accordance with international prece- dent and could not be regarded as any form of recognition of the Huerta gov ernment, there are members who be- lieve to the contrary. Senator Borah insists that to salute the Mexican flag cannot be construed as anything else but recognition of Huerta's govern ment. Some democrats are inclined to this view, maintaining that it is "the common sense way to look at it,'' but they plead unfaIniliarity with interna- tional precedents and are upholding the administration.

GEORGE 6. FOX ADVOCATES
 REPEAL OF TOLL.
In Hearing Before Senate Committee on Exemption of CoastWise Vessels.

Washington April 17-Support for the proposeded repeal of the tolls ex- emption clause of the Penama canal act was given today before the sen-. ate canals committee by Representa-
 tices of the New York chamber of
 commerce who said that their organ 1zatlon. made up of representative
 business men, had approved of repeal
 by an overwhelming majority. Their
 testimony caused a wordl conflict be-
 tween Senator Bristow, opposing re-
 peal and Edward F. Page, a member
 of the chamber. as well as of the
 New York Merchants association.
 After MT. Page had declared that in
 his opinion the United States should
 repeal the exemption clause in order
 to avoid breaking a contract, Senator
 Bristow asked whether the support
 CTS of repeal could not be called
 traitors to America, as well as the op
 ponents could be called violatorS of
 contracts.
 Those are catch words used by
 demagogues" replied the witness,
 but: I do not intend to use any per-
 sonalities. I do not believe that op-
 ponents of repeal have any right to question the loyalty of those on the other side"
 Senator Bristow wanted to know commerce had not been originally chartered before the revolution by | King George of England. Mir. Page replied that that was true, but that 1t now had a charter from the state l of New York and he added that dur ing the Civil war the organization gave money and Loyalty supported the union.
 MT. Page declared that national honor and character were business as- sets to any nation and that the in dustries of the United States in the future would largely be dependent up- on exports. The business men of
 the country could do little if the ma 1 ton did not keep it's contracts, he added.
 A telegram approving Of President Wilson's on the tolls Ques-
 ton signed by Richard Olney, secre- tary of state in President Cleveland s cabinet and other Massachusetts cit izens was read by Senator Simmons. Henry White, secretary of the Amer ican embassy at London at the time of the negotiations of the Hay Pauncefots treaty, said in a letter read by Senator Simmons to supplimeRt MT Whites recent testimony before | the committee that he believed it 'tO be entirely erroneous
 That by repeating the exemption
 clause the United States surrenders to | Great Britain future control over the canal. Should the United States SC | desire, it could grant a subsidy to its vessels passing through the canal 1 Howard c. Smith of New York and | George L. Fox, principal of the Uni versity School of New Haven, Conn. were on today's list of witnesses foI l repeal. Next week representatives ot l the Pacific coast will appear against repeal.
