after learning of Annals disgrace, said
he would return. He went out, as the
testimony showed, and got drunk.
Anna, she said. had never told either
her or Cleary that she was in serious
trouble or had been married.
The big point in the testimony of DR..
Schultz was that though he knew the
night before the murder that Anna had
been married he did not tell the Clearys
about il until the next morning, when
he told Mrs. Cleary.
The alienist for tn defence was
Floyd S. Gregg. who, answering long
hypothetical question. said the effect of
such disclosures as Anna made TO the
physician would make a man irrational,
at least temporarily, and he character
lzed Cleary's actions on the day of the
killing as irrational. He asserted that
the slayer was in a twilight state"
when the shooting occurred
DR.. Carlos F. Macdonald, alienist for
the state, testified to the contrary.
In the morning the men who were in
Cleary's office when Newman was shot,
and other persons who participated in
the events just preceding and succeed
ing the crime, testified.
Four New York men, including
Jimmy" Wakeley, of Sixth av., and
James Moran, night manager of Jacks,
told Of meeting Cleary when he was
drunk on the night of July % and the
morning of July %

VASSAR'S NEW HEAD THINKS
WOMAN SHOULD HAVE POST
Many Graduates Even Sufragsts Disagree with DR.. Mac

lege.
at would be a great mistake 10 have
the influence all feminine" she said.
The voices heard in protest are the
voices of the younger, newer graduates
chiefly. Mrs. Fernandez said she
thought a protest ought to be made.
81 wouldn't want to do anything that
would make it difficult for DR.. Mac
Cracken," she observed. "He is very
fine. But it does seem absurd that
Vassar should calmly take it for grant
ed that there's no woman fit for the
place of president.
"Many of the graduates felt that
Professor Laura j. Wiley, head of the
English department, should have been
made president. ! feel that alumne
associations should begin to make an
organized effort 10 have women at the
helms Of women's colleges"
"Of course. nothing can be done now

man at the head of Vassar." Mrs. Bois-

Miss Lucille Cochran, a recent grad
uate, now assistant secretary at the
New York School of Philanthropy,
doubted if women were big enough yet.
at isn't our fault" she said. at is be-
cause OF the limited lives We have
lived for generations
Miss Margaret Calhoun, who teaches
dancing in Carnegie Hall Building, and
Miss Louise Holmduist, head of de-
partment at the National Young
Women's Christian Association, thought
it made no difference whether the
president was a man or a woman.
Miss Jean Webster, who wrote
Daddy Long-Legs," wanted Miss Julia
Lathrop, head of the Children's Bureau
at Washington, to be the president Of
Vassar. She said:
Miss Lathrop was approached, for
many wanted her TO go to Nassar, but
she refused to give up her work IN the
Children's Bureau"
The constitution of Vsssar required
that the president should be a Baptist
minister. but that has been changed.
Old Matthew Vassar, the founder, was
a good suffragist. though he did not
order women presidents. In letter
to Maria Mitchell, the astronomer, he
declared il shameful" that women
should be classed with idiots and
criminals. "This is the result of mans
tyranny" he wrote. my three hundred
daughters should be prepared to
change this"
DR. MacCracken will take up his
duties very soon at Vassar. During the
wear since Or. Taylor resigned Miss
McCabel has been practically DEAN and
some of the students hoped that she
would be made president.

Samuel Gompers, president OF the
American Federation Of Labor, came to
this city yesterday with view to set
thing a number of internal disputes
among the locals OF printing trades
unions. The first conference was held
in the afternoon al the Continental
Hotel, and was attended by the presi-

Pressmen's Union, the International
Photo Engravers' Union and the inter-
national Brotherhood of Bookblnders'
" L. Johnson, president Of the inter-
national Association of Machinlsts, was
also present. . A.
Mr., Gompers was asked about the
nercontage of unemployed workers.
lie declined to discuss the question, DuI
said the disputes were not on HlIai

employment was not general.
The kosher bakers strike, oeguh

union bakers, is still on, and mas oeeh
accompanied by many arrests OF strike

the strikers, in many cases accom-

Though in most OF tne Dra a.;,eS Of 81
the building trades representatives OF
the unions say there are more unem-

officers say the members are all busy.
This is the Hosting Engineers Union,

wife was brought about. On the ground
that little distinction could be drawn
between man and his wife under
these circumstances, the Senate COM
mittee rejected the second appolntmnt
and the Senate itself confirmed this
action
In spite OF the adverse action OF the
Senate, which was taken on the ipitia-
tive of Senator Gronna, Republican,
Mrs. Bloom received a recess appoint
ment, which is now up for consldera-
ton a second time.
Senators Call II an Affront.
Some Senators declared to-day that
the Presidents action was an afront
to the Senate. and there is little doubt
that the President will have on his
hands the biggest fight txat has arisen
between the two branches in many
years, unless he recedes from his posi-
ton. It was limited to-day that the
Senate might express it's displeasure
by passing a special resolution return
ing Mrs. Blooms appointment to the
White House without action.
On the Presidents side, however,
cases were cited of the second ap-
pointment o. federal officers whose
names were rejected in the first IN
stance by margin Of few votes. In
several cases these appointments have
been approved on the second attempt.
There are no circumstances in the
Bloom case, however, 10 suggest that
the Senate might have changed its
mind.
The appointment OF Francis w.
Brown TO be postmaster at Lincoln.
Neb.. was in the list sent to the Sem
ate to-day. Brown, who is Secretary
Bryan's choice for the place. was held
I'D for some time by Senator Hitchcock
in the interest of Representative Ma
guire, who had recommended another
candidate. Mcguire was defeated for
reelection. Bryan's candidate for the
postmastership at Rockford, ILL.,, U. N.
Williams. met with defeat.
The name of Daniel f. Shea, Demo
cratic organization leader of the Dor.
ough of Queens. appears on the list OF
nominations for the postmastership at
Jamaica.

most bit into his daughters cheeks.
Cleary Overcome by Emotion.
Finally, by pIlling and working her
elbows, aided by Ambrose Cleary
Jerking his brothers right arm, the girl
got herself loose. Cleary and she reeled
from each other.
Cleary fell against his brother, and
then against his wife. She had risen
to hold him, but his weight tumbled
her back into her chair. And he slipped
down, his head in her lap. His sob
bling was unrestrained and very full
His wife had begun crying Historically,
and she kissed him time and time again
on the back of his head.
The jurors divided their flashing
chances between Cleary and the young
Mrs. Newman. She was tottering tow
ard the witness chair when Ambrose
Cleary stepped from his brothers side
and, moving quickly forward, lifted
rather than supported her TO the chair
The courtroom was then given an
other unusual spectacle, this time in
the jury box. Four Of the jurors, only
one Of them young, were sobbing more
lemotionally thai were Cleary and his
wife, and their condition stood out as
more remarkable than that of the upset
young woman on the stand. Their eyes
were ringed with red, their noses were
red, and as they put their handker-
chiefs into action they seemed not al
all embarrassed by the fact.
For two or three minutes Mrs. New
man remained transfxed in her seat
Her mouth was open in an involun-
tary set expression. The kisses Of her
father had put into her cheeks color
and into her eyes a bright sparkle
that gave her new animation and fresh
beauty
She wavered in her seat. bottle
Of smelling salts was passed up to
her. and she Immediately passed II
back, pointing 10 her father and moth
er. Cleary, on raising his head, let
II fall on the table and clasped his
hands over his head. Mrs. Cleafy
crying, shook her head from side to
side.
Justice Morschauser made no com
neut during any of this, looking on
c,ith rather tired interest, and AS
soon as the time seemed propitious ne
ordered the defendants attorney 10 20
ahead with the case.

Cleary identified a letter he had

Angeles. telling Of his purpose 20 move
the family out Of New York State.
After that he described his wander
ings after O'Clock that night. He
went out in an old suit, no underwear,

without sleep and marked with heavy
drinking, he took train 10 Haver-
