POSTCARD CLUE
TOD. c. SHANKS.
MISSING PAINTER

Mrs. Arthur Brenner Of $50 North
Eleventh street, received an unsigned
postcard yesterday afternoon which
she believes was written by her
brother, David C. Shanks, of 36l
North Sixth street, the house painter
who has been missing since March 81
The card, which bore the postmark
of New York city, read:
Dear Sister: Am being cared for
physically under Christian care Take
good care OF wife and baby. May
God bless wife and baby. Will hear
from me by letter in due time"
Mrs. Brenner said the writing on
the card was that of her brother
without any doubt, and from the
message she was of the belief that
recurrence of an old case of blood
poisoning, arising from his employ
ment, had occurred.
The card was the first message to
come from Shanks since he told his
wife that he was going to Central
avenue to see about a painting job
on March 81.

bel justification.

SYRACUSE, N Y, April 2l.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt resumed the witness
stand in the Supreme Court here to-
day and continued to tell the story OF
his dealings with William Barnes in
an effort to prove he was justified in
making the statement upon which Mr..
Barnes is suing him to recover $50, 900
for alleged libel.
Before Colonel Roosevelt took the
stand counsel representing both sides
and the court discussed in chambers
legal questions in regard 20 what
should or should not be admitted in
evidence.
At the end Of the conference il was
announced that the court had decided
not to admit evidence regarding GER
tain things not specified in the plead
ings. This barred the door to the ad-
mission OF great mass of evidence
dealing with politics. political meth
DDS and Mr.. Barnes's alleged CONVEX
sations with Colonel Roosevelt on the
ethics of bossism.
Thomas f. Smith, secretary OF Tam
MANY Hall for the past twenty years,
arrived at the Court House today in
answer to a subpoena served upon
him by a representative of Colonel
Roosevelt's counsel. The subpoena
calls for Mr.. Smiths attendance on
three days. This was taken as an in
dication that his examination would
be very thorough.
Conversations With Barnes
When the examination OF Colonel
Roosevelt was resumed, Mr.. Bowers
questioned the witness, who said:
IT had conversations with Mr..
Barnes regarding the gubernatoriai
election in 1908. These took placs in
Washington and possibly in Oyster
Bay, too"
Colonel Roosevelt was shown two
letters. the contents of which he said
he had discussed with Mr.. Barnes.
Now, what were the conversa-
tions?" asked Mr.. Bowers.
Mr.. wins, counsel for Mr.. Barnes,
objected to this question, but was
overruled and the witness continued;
'"rhe conversations had were in
regard to Mr.. Barnes's domination OF
the party. Now, judge, they were

THOUGHT HE
WAS VICTIM
OF HOLD-UP
So Says Russell in Explaining
Customs Charge of
Smuggling.

That he believed the customs in
spectors who arrested him were try
ing ssto hold him up" was the testi-
mony given today by Herman A.
Russell, of Chicago, on trial for the
alleged smuggling Of $4,000 worth of
jewelry into this country The testi-
mony is being heard by jury and
Judge Haight in the Newark branch
of the United States District Court.
Russell was arrested at Hoboken
on June 2, 1914, as he left the North
German Lloyd liner Kron Prinz Will
helm. In his declaration of articles
he was bringing into this country
Russell made no mention of g. suit
case containing the stones valued at
1000. 1t was testified that the
iewelry was worth $9,43S.54 abroad,
and s11, ,499.O5 in this country. The
difference, $2,O6051, Is the duty which
should have been paid.
"I've never been in court before,
even as a Witness" Russell told the
Jury. "If had been able to get a
copy of the testimony taken before
United States Commissioner Stanton
last June could prove my innocence
in few minutes"
United States District Attorney J.
Warren Davis asked Russell what he
meant by saying he might have given
the customs inspector a bribe, had
the latter asked for 1t.
"If YOU were honest In the matter,
why didn't you explain why you left
the suitcase out of the declaration,
instead of thinking to get out of 1t
with q bribe"

seen my jewelry suitcase, answered

Captain Canrey. Of the FIRST pre-
cinct, declared 70 The Star this
morning that Mrs. Arthur A. Hem
mendinger, of % Murray street, her
self broke the windows OF her home
on four nights of last week and this,
and that Il DR.. Charles Il. Kramer,
agent for the owner Of the apartment,
will make charges against Mrs. Hem
mendinger, the police win prove them.
Mrs. Hemmendinger, on the other
hand, says the police are wrong. She
wants to know If the police thought
her crazy, when she was told that
Captain caffrey declared she had
broken the windows. I'm not look
ing for newspaper notoriety," she de-
clared. There could be no other OBJ
jeet in my breaking the windows.
Why, it's absurd and ridiculous, to
say 1 broke my own windows"
Captain Cafrrey has peeled the po-
tato mystery. he Is sure. He worked
out the solution, step by step. II am
slow TO suspect anyone" he said. 'I
have been on the force many years
and have learned to give eevryone q
chance When Peter Mcclure, one OF
my plainclothesmen, told me ne was
him TO stick to the first theory, that
someone in the neighborhood was
throwing the potatoes.
But when 1 stood beneath the fire
escape and glass rainsd down about
me Sunday night, realized that win
dow had been broken from the inside.
and not from the outside.
fThat was what happened. I was
standing there with Mcclure, and in
the court three stories below the
windows In the back Of the Hemmin4
dinger apartment, when we heard q
crash. A second after that we were
lodging glass. l had been enough cut
up mentally about this case TO want
to keep my skin from being cut, too.
1 hurried through the court and
to Murray street and up the stairs
to the Hemmendingers. The carpet
prevented them from hearing me.
When l reached the door I heard a
woman's voice. She Is making q

the glass from that window had gone
down on the outside. When a win
dow is broken from the outside does
( the glass fall outside? II II did.

Mrs. Hemmendinger talks about a
| demented man in the Kinney house
on Astor street. He has been in the
asylum since February, which re-
I moves him as a suspect. That was
an inside job, and you can say
can prove it. The best proof in the
world is that since the girl was ar
rested there has been no more win
dow breaking"
| Captain Cafrrey didn't have any

ROME, April 21.-It is now up TO
the italian government. SO far as
the army and navy are concerned,
they are ready to strike at a mo-
ment's notice. Troops are concen-
trated at the strategic positions from
which the first hostile movement
against Austria must be made. The
navy is ready to protect the Italian
coast cities from any raid by the Aus
trian fleet which is still at Pola-
Excitement Is intense in official
circles because Of the belief that war
is inevitable. Despite this, however.
Prince Won Buelow. the German am
bassador, is still working hard to pre-
vent Italy entering the war. It has
been at his request that Italy has
withheld an ultimatum to Austria.
He continues to assure the govern
ment that Austria will make conces-
sions that will satisfy Italy. And the
prince is leaving nothing undone TO
influence the Italian government to
maintain peace.

STRONG SQUADRON
Off JERSEY COAST

NEW YORK, April 21.-A squadron
of three cruisers. the most powerful
gathered here since the war began
lay off the entrance to New York
harbor today.
Closest to the shore lay four
funnel British cruiser. seven miles
east of Ambrose channel light5hip
Her name and the names of her COM
panions could not be made out, even
through glasses. Ten miles east Of
the Highlands rode the second ship
an auxiliary cruiser big and with
lines that spelled speed. This cruiser,
observers thought, was a stranger
here, the Caronia having departed
presumably for supplies.
The largest ship of the squadron, q
four-funnel cruiser, lay fifteen miles
southeast of the Highlands. This
vessel. too, had not been seen pre-
Viously by shore observers.

VOTING LAW
IS SUSTAINED
Supreme Court Holds Valid Re-
cent Elections in Bayonne
and New Brunswick.
From a Stan Correspondent.

TRENTON, April 2l-The validity
of the Hennessey preferential primary
law was upheld today in an opinion
filed in the Supreme Court by Justice
Bergen. The decision comes at a
time when it is of vast Importance to
commission government cities of New
Jersey.
Trenton, Ocean City, Passaic and
other places will hold shortly an cleo
tion for commissioners. and If the
Hennessey preferential law had been
declared invalid. great combustion
would have resulted in those munici-
palities.
The Supreme Court decision has
clarified the entire situation. Justice
Bergen holds that the statute does
not violate the right of suffrage as
reserved in the constitution, and he
orders dismissed the writ of certiorari
sued out by j. Frederick Orpen, and
directed against John Watson, New
BrunswiaiIs city clerk

their Trades against the Catholic
Church, the East End Historical So

reaped a harvest of quarters last
night from women and men who oc-

out of the Winans street entrance TO

The excitement which every one

Speaker Walks ON Flag.
The secret society is so secret that
one member cannot discuss the other
members, the speakers repeated time
and again. Most of the younger
men in sympathy with the "cause"
disr,'ayed American flags in their
buttonholes. Slattery wound his feet
In and out among the sections of a
huge flag which covered a desk
against which he leaned as he spoke.
One of the features of the interrup-
tions made by the audience, which,
on the whole, gave the speakers much
was the quizzing OF Slat-
terry by a woman who sought to
learn il he had been In the parish OF
the Moon in Ireland. Slattery smiled
as he said he had, using a thick
brogue. He also answered that he
knew family which was mentioned
