MRS. WAKEFIELD
ON TRIAL AGAIN
Connecticut Woman Once Convicted and
Sentenced to Death for Murder
of Husband.

/ New Haven, Conn.,, July l5.--Bessie j
| Wakefield was placed on trial for sec
ond time yesterday under an indictment
for the murder OF her husband, William
TO- Wakefield, at Cheshire on June %,
1913. She was found guilty on Oct, 81
and sentenced to be hanged on March 4
last. Upon an appeal the supreme court
of errors granted new trial James
plew, who actually shot, stabbed, and
ehoked Wakefield to death, was con.
victed and hanged
The state alleged in the first trial that
Mrs Wakefield was the master mind in
the plot. She obtained new trial
chiefly upon the contention that evidence
was admitted which had to do with
Plew's acts.
Judge Joel Reed presides over the
second trial. Eighty four talesmen
answered the roll call. 1t was expected
that jury would be selected during the
day. Mrs. Wakefield is in excellent
health.
Mrs. Wakefelds conviction at the
first trial attracted attention through
out the country. Thousands OF letters
hundreds of thousands of
signers outside of Connecticut, flooded
the mail of Governor Baldwin. They APP
pealed for pardon or communication of
sentence. The governor had no power
in the matter and the case did not reach
the board of pardons. No woman has
been hanged in Connecticut since colonial
days,

MURDERER DOWN
Detectives at Work on New
Clue in the
Case y

Mineola, L. l., July l5-Soon after
DIR. Edwin Carman had told his story, o.
part OF it, yesterday before the grand
jury that is investigating the murder OF
Mrs. Louise Bailey in his Office at Free.
port on June 30, his wife, Mrs. Florence
Carman, who is accused OF the murder
gave out statement through her attor'
ney.
Mrs. Carman declared that she was in
nocent and expressed assurance that she
would soon be freed. She said that
neither she nor her husband would rest
until the murderer of Mrs. Bailey had
been run down.
1t was said for her by her lawyer,
George NJ. Levy. that she expected her
statement before the grand jury would
mean the dismissal of the charge against
her.
In giving his testimony before the
grand jury, Dir. Carman was not asked,
as had been expected, to waive immu-
nifty.
Another sensational turn in the case
Yesterday was the announcement made
here, on information received from New
iOIhs Ildb AtAd tptNHAuits iht hitthNb
girl in the Chairman home, had made a
complete statement to William J. Burns
detectives. 1t was said that Mr.. Burns
thought that this statement cleared up
what was left of the mystery in the
case.
While the grand jury was engaged in
hearing nine witnesses tell what they
knew about the mysterious murder and
the actions of Mrs. Carman, detectives
were running down a clue which District
Attorney Smith said would lead to the
finding OF the two strange women whom
Mrs. Carman and her sister said they
saw hurrying away directly after Mrs.
Bailey fell to the floor of DR.. Carman's
office
These women. tn, district attorney as
serted, may be able to offer corrobora-
ton to the testimony of Elwood Bardes
given at the inquest, and Of the story
told yesterday by Celia Coleman, the
negro maid in the Carman home, to the
grand jury.
The maid exempliied the testimony
she gave at the inquest, saying that
after the report Of the revolver her mis-
.ress hurried into the kitchen through |
he back door and went upstairs.

$4,000 RAILROAD
MEN THREATEN
GIANT STRIKE
The Engineers Brotherhood Ultimatum
to Managers in West Demands
Pays Increase.

Chicago, July l5.--A crisis was reached
Monday in the wage dispute between the
$4,000 engineers and fremen employed
on 9S railroads operating west of Chi
cago and the railroads general manag-
ers' committee. At conference yester-
day afternoon the officials of the en-
gineers' brotherhood presented their
strike ultimatum.
About 90 per cent of the membership
of the union has voted to strike unless
the roads aceede to the demands for u
wage increase. Officials of the brother
hood insist the men are determined to
strike unless an agreement is reached.
The next move is up to the railroads.
This will probably take the form of an
appeal to the United States commits
sioner of labor to take hand in the
situation.
Whether the engineers will agree to
accept federal mediation, ii requested by
the railroads, has not been determined.
The commissioner OF labor, should that
official be called into the controversy,
will act under the authority of the New
lands act, p4-Viding for mediation and
arbitration of railroad labor disputes.
If the railroads fatty reject the ultima
tum without appealing for federal me-
diation, one Of the greatest railroad
strikes in the history of the country is
practically certain to follow, according
to the brotherhood officials.
Such strike would tie up approx
mately 10000 miles of railroad, involv-
ing practically all lines west of Chicago,
the Illinois Central and all lines in Cam
ada west of Fort William, except the
Grand Trunk Pacific.

1000 Armed Redouins Cross Border

London. Nov. 3-There IS a report
from Constantinople that the grand
yizier has apologized to Russia, Great
Britain and France for the acts OF the
Turkish fleet in the Black sea.
Many events OF the past twenty-four
hours, however, show that war be-
tween Turkey and the Triple Entente
has actually begun and that only the
formal notification is lacking.
The Turkish ambassador TO Great
Britain, Tewfik Pasha, was handed
his passports and will leave for Der
lin. The ambassadors of the Triple En-.
tente powers received their passports
in Constantinople on Sunday and the
British ambassador Immediately de-
parted for Bulgaria on a special train.
The French and Russian ENJOYS also
left.
Fighting on sea and land shows how
meaningless have been the protesta-
tons OF the Turkish officials. It is re.
ported from Athens and Rome that a
British and French squadron sank
two Turkish warships in the harbor
OF TcheSme, near Smyrna.
The Turks renewed the lombard
ment of Odessa and Theodosia on
Saturday. Turkish armies are mass
ing near Belrout, and on the Caucas'
ian frontier, and two Turkish army
corps are nearing the frontier Of
Egypt, and the report persists that
from 1000 to 5000 Bedouins have al
ready crossed the border. In addition
Turkey is mining the coast of Smyrna
and is sending Mullahs to preach the
Jehad In Asia and Africa.
