Oct. 26.-Dr. Alfred F. M. thinner.

PLANTATION Of the recent execution in
Belgium of Miss Edith Cavell, the
British nurse. He prefaced his re,
marks by the declaration that he had
examined every jot and title of the
evidence with the greatest care and
found the verdict, though regrettable,
to be just. His statement follows:
Official Explanation Made.
Il see by the British and the Amer.
icaa press that the shooting Of an Eng.
lish woman and the conviction of sew.
eral other women in Brussels for trea.
son have created great impression
and that we are being severely criti'
cised. It is indeed hard that a woman
must be executed, but remember to
what shall state come which is in
war II it allows to pass unnoticed q
crime against the safety of it's armies
because committed by women. No
law book in the world, least Of all
those dealing with war regulations,
makes such differentiation and the
feminine sex has but one preference,
according to legal usages, namely that
women in delicate condition may not
be executed. Otherwise man and wo,
man are equal before the law and
only their degree of guilt makes diff,
ference in the sentence for the crime
and itg consequences.
II admit certainly that the motive
Of those convicted was not unnoble
and that they acted out Of love for the
fatherland. But in war time one must
be ready to seal ones love for the
fatherland with ones blood whether
one opposes the enemy in battle OF
whether one commits acts in its in.
terest which justly carry with them
the death penalty.

Saying That Words Were Dis
tinctIy Heard by French

New York, Oct. 23.-Arlington, Va,

neer, fell the honor of being the first
man to span with his voice the space
between the old world and the new.

The wireless snapped out the signal
and soon there came back a response.
Awaiting word from Mr.. Webb at the
Paris end Of the wireless radiation
were H. E. Shreeve and A. NJ. Curtis,
other engineers, and group of French
officers listening with especially de-
signed apparatus.
Webb, at Arlington, had a trans.
hitting instrument, but no receiving
apparatus. He knew, therefore, that
he would have to wait for the cable to
confirm the success or failure of the
experiment.
Hello, Shreeve!" he shouted into
the mouthpiece.
Hello. Shreevei"
HELLO Heard by French.
He then began to count: One, two.
three, four; one, two. three, four. Good
bye"
Late in the afternoon the expected
cable message came. 1t was addressed
to the company here and said that
Webb's "hellos" and 'good-byes" had
been distinctly heard by the engineers
and French army officers in Paris and
that portions of his test figures had
also been picked up. At about the
same time there came a message from
Honolulu, saying that Webb's talk had
been understood.
