JOHN TIEPER GUILTY, BUT
WILL ESCAPE CHAIR

Buffalo, N. Y, Dec. 23.-John Ed
ward Tieper is guilty in the second de-
gree of the murder of his mother In the
Orchard Park road on the night Of Jan.
30, was the verdict Of the jury, which
reported after twenty-nine hours Of de-
liberation.
Tieper will probably be sentenced
Dec. 2S. His counsel will apply then
for new trial. The sentence pre-.
scribed for second degree murder ls
minimum Of twenty years imprison-
ment.
The verdict broke the nerve OF the
young defendant, who throughout the
trial had displayed no emotion. In the
twenty minutes wait between the an
nouncement that the jury was ready
to report and the assembling Of the
court officers Tieper was nervous.
When the jury came in and were
asked If they had agreed upon YER
dict the foreman replied:

the Tieper family. An agonlzed cry
followed. 1t was the wife of the de-
fendant. Tieper's knees sagged, and he
would have fallen had he not been
caught from behind by a deputy
Placed in his chair, he sagged forward,
sobs shaking his body.
'"This is not fairl' he shrieked.
While the roll was taken T.eper was
struggling with the deputies, crying
again, This isn't humanr' His broth
er finally calmed him.
In all of the balloting. 1t was said
eleven Jurors stood for first degree
conviction. One man, according to re-
port, held out against that verdict be-
cause the evidence was circumstantial.
He could not be won over, so the com.
promise verdict was given.

ReuafnInu Lost Speech.

Nearly every day the papers contain
paragraph stating that some victim
of shell shock has suddenly recovered
his speech, and the variety of the
methods Is curious, the London OBJ
server observes. Here are few:
L. Grew excited over game OF
cards.
2. Fell downstairs.
8. Had a tooth pulled out at the
dentist's-without anesthetc.
4. Choked through inhaling cigarette
smoke.
8. Underwent fashlight photo
graph.
g. Put the wrong end Of lighted
cigarette in his mouth.
The card cure, on the whole, seems
the least painful.

Capt. Mexican Gives Interesting
Information.
GREAT BRITAIN IN LEAD.
House Naval Committee Told That
British Navy is Twice As Strong
As That Of Germany and
Austria Combined.

The British Navy is approximately
twice as strong as the combined ileets
of Germany and Austria while the Teu-
tonic combination has Just about dou-
bic the seafghting force of the United
States according to inform alton in the
possession of the Navy Department.
The facts were disclosed 10 the House
Naval Committee last week by Capt.
Josiah Mexican of the staff Of the chief
OF operations. Captain Mckean also
said the French Navy was from fifteen
TO twenty-five per cent. stronger than
the American. according to latest in
formation He explained that these
were rough estimates. and that charts
showing the specific relations of the
various navies would he submitted la
ter by Rear Admiral Berson, ,iie cher
of operations.
So far as is definitely known the
Captain told the committee the Jap
anese building program adopted sever
al years. ago. and which will not be
completed for several years TO come.
provides for a modern fleet OF eight
dreadnaughts and eight battle cruisers.
II was possible. he added, that add:-
tional building was in progress. as all
nations but the United States had Sc
cret building policies
On the strength of the known pro-
gramh, however Captain Mexican said
Japan would have but sixteen capital
ships when the seventeen American.
American dreadnaughts built, building
orauthorized were commissioned. The
witness disagreed with Rear Admiral
Grant. chief of submarines, who Dre-
ceded him. as to the advisability of
abandoning the present smaller sub
marine type III favor OF S00-ton boats.
lie believed thirty of the large boats
should be built and attached to the
fleets, but that smaller ones should
operate from shore bases established
at frequent intervals along the coasts.
Neither the Senate or House Military
Committee considered preparedness
that day. the House committee having
decided TO take up- the work of draft
ing its federalized National Guard bill
this week for continuous discussion,
until completed while the Senate com
mittee was diverted to other questions
temporarily
The House committee received how
ever statement from BrigaGier Gen
eral William Crozier. chief OF army
ordnance, giving his views on the Till
man bill to prohibit the disclosure OF
military secrets. As trawn. General
Crozier said. the act is TOO sweeping
and would forbid giving out informa-
ton OF any character, whether conf
dental or not. He thought this was
nnWise.
