the murder of nine people Mrs. Rena
Mooney, fifth alleged plottcr was not
permitted to remain in the court room
for fear of prejudicing the veniremen.
As fast as the jurors were called they
were placed in the box directly facing
the suspects. Each was required to
look at the quartet and tell whether
he had ever known any of the four
Among the questions asked by the
state were:
Have you anarcbistic or union labor
tendencies9
Are you a subscriber to "The Blast -
or any publication of like policies?
Have you conscious or religious scru'
pies against the inflction of the death
penalty?
Charles Spengelman, furrier, was the
first venireman examined. He was ex-
cused when he asserted that he was de-
cidedly prejudiced.
The alacrity with which veniremen
responded this morning TO questions
put to them indicated that there would
be little difficulty in securing a jury
within reasonable length of time.
The first three men to be tempo
rarily passed by both sides were: Ad.
ans H. Lieb, William T. Humbcrt and
Peter A. Finnigan.

LANDS SUGGESTED
Mexican Conference Consid-
ers It---Legalistas Attack
Commission
By Carl D. Groat

New London, Conn, Sept. Ire
distribution of lands, through a taxa
ton scheme which will break up large
holdings, was suggestion for solution
of Mexico's S internal problems which
the Mexican commissioners outlined to
the Americans in the "peace confer
cnce today.
The Cararnza ENJOYS urged their
plan as a hopeful sign of regeneration
and argued it would help to rid the
nation of the scourge of banditry and
lessen the need for military protection
of the border. Through land distribu-
ton and no other means, it is argued,
peace and plenty can be restored the
southern republic.
Progress toward troop withdrawal
was made in today's session but it
seems likely several more meetings will
be required before the conferees, can
report to their governments any def
mite recommendation regarding their
plan.

pasture her donkey and her goats on

her abode for the night as she sees fit.
Pretiss l.. Conley, millionaire, in
whose home she has lived for the last
three months without his knowledge,
has dropped his ease against Mary.
Conley has asked the court to inves-
tigate as to Mary's sanity. Mary, it
is said has for the last ten years been
living in the homes of Lake Forest
millionaires without their knowledge.
:" m going to drop the case,' said
Conley. 81 do not wish to appear in
the light of prosecuting the poor old
creature. | think she must be insane,
but the Judge thinks she was harmless
and Mary herself has promised to be
good, so / have washed my hands of
the whole business. -
Conley declared he thought he was
doing Lake Forest a favor by trying
to have Mary put away.
81 am not the only person in whose
home she has lived clandestinely. She
has played the same trick in twenty
five other homes. She doesn t work, y
said Conley.
Conley declared Mary would get in
to Lake Forest homes through the con
nivance Of servants among whom he
said, "there seemed to be happy con
spiracy to support Mary"
"Mary's goats have Lake Forest s
collective goats,' he said. ''But what
can they do? But Mary should worry.
Mrs. William Gottmer, friend of
Miss Hickey, declared that while Mary
might be a trifle peculiar, she was not
insane.
"She is peculiar, yes, but not insane.
She loves her pets and she loves lit
