SLAYER
IN CONFINEMENT
Negro Accused of Killing
Warden's Wife a Product
of Honor System.
lRv Associated Press

JOLIET, Ill, June PA negro
trusty, a product Of the honor sys-
tenn" among convicts at the state pen
itentiarv. was held in solitary contine-
ment today, pending investigation OF
the murder OF Mrs. Edmund NJ. Allen,
wife Of the prison warden. whose body,
fearfully burned, was found on a blaz,
ing bed in her apartment yesterday.
Joseph Campbell. convicted OF kill
ing a negro in Chicago five years ago,
and sentenced to serve an indetermin'
ate sentence OF from n year to life,
was the convict under guard.
So far as is known, Campbell,
known as the Aliens personal servant,
under the honor system. is the last
person to have seen Mrs. Allen alive.
Officials believe she was burned to
death as she lay unconscious in her
bed as her skull had been fractured
by a blow which physicians said had
not caused her death. Mrs. Allen before
her marriage five years ago. was Miss
Odetta Maize Bordeaux, a comic opera
favorite. She took an active part IN
affairs of the prison and her influence
did much toward establishing the hon
or system.
Flags are at half mast over the city.
The murderer is said to have left
finger prints in the bed room and an
expert Is expected here from Chicago
TO photograph and analyze them. Elev.
en- convicts, including Campbell. are
in solitary confinement in connection
with the crime.

British, who hoped that this strong

another example OF the resillency OF

occurred. Some British experts are OF
the opinion that the Russians are fight

success as their opponents claim.

ERENcH REPoRT GAINS.

French and German accounts OF
operations in the western theatre show
the usual Emergencies, but detailed re-
ports from Paris satisfy the British
that their allies are making such an
advance as will shortly permit more
active operations in the sphere occu'

The French advance north OF Arras,
it is though here. must have pushed
the Germans into a narrower front
which will render some Of their masses
of o comparatively ineffective.
The gains in Alsace show that the
French are drawing close to the area
of permanent Herman Notifications.
The arrival OF Prof. James Adolph
Israel. the German specialist. at the
bed side Of Sultan Mehemed indicates
that early reports that the sultan was
suffering from a mild attack Of catarrh
did not show his real condition.
