Washington, jan. l5.--.Thc fedora
white slave act was construed by lht
supreme court today to prohibit inter
state transportation of women for any
immoral purpose, including private cs-
"apades, as well a. comWur-iup2ud
vice.
In three test cases, the court in a
divided opinion affirmed convictions
of F. Drew Caminetti and Maury
Diggs of Sacramento, Calf, and l.. r.
Hays of ANa, Okla. Their imprison-
ment sentences and fines will become
ineffective within thirty days.
Court Five to Three.
The court divided, five to three in
broadly interpreting the law enacted
in 1910. Chief Justice White and
Justices McKenna and Clark, in u
minority opinion, held that congress
intended to have the law apply only
to actual traffic" in women and not
to personal immoralities Justice Nc
Reynolds, who was attorney general
during the prosecution of Caminetti
and Diggs, took no part in the case.
The majority opinion, given by JUS
tice Day, held that while congress
may have intended the law to prohib-
it only traffic in women for pecun-
iary gain, its plain terms include in
terdiction of their transportation "for
any other immoral purpose" If it was
not so intended, the majority said
it was congress- function, not the
courts, to amend the law.
Covers Jack johnson Case.
Wider scope in enforcing the law
now is open to the department Of JUS
tice, which contended for the broad
er Interpretation. The ruling affects
many pending cases, including that of
Jack Johnson, the negro pugilist, who
Is q fugitive from justice.
Whether the law makes accom-
plices" of women involved in personal
escapades, was not definitely decided
by the court, but their testimony
against men indicted was held as per-
missible
In the test cases, Caminetti was SEN
fenced to eighteen months imprison-
ment and fined Sl,500; Diggs to two
years, and $4,000 fine, and Hays to
eighteen months in prison.

SHOT IN BACK
OF SKULL PROOF
OF HIS MURDER
Lead Taken From Skeleton of
Clyde D. Armour Indicates
Method of Death; Feeling Is
High in Santa Fe,

Santa Fe, Jan. 15.-The finding to-
day of a, number of shot imbedded in
the skull of Clyde d. Armour leaves
no doubt that the young Sioux City
man was foully murdered and his
body left prey to vultures in the
mountains near Glorieta, until its
chance discovery Sunday morning.
The shot were found in the rear Of
the skull and the vertebrae of the
spine and were taken out by County
Physician E. l.. Ward of Santa Fe
county after the almost denuded skel-
eton of Armour was brought to this
city.
All day long a morbid throng of
people filed in and out of the under
taking establishment where the bones
of young Armour are awaiting the ar
rival of members of his family. No
criminal case in the history of Santa
Fe has ever aroused such intense in
terest locally, and feeling against the
slayer could not be higher if Armour
had been a resident of this COM
munity.
Brothers Expected.
State Senator Melvin T. Dunlavy,
attorney for the Armours, last night
telegraphed to the brothers of the
murdered man, notifying them of the
discovery of the body, but has not yet
received their reply. The Armour
home is some distance in the country
and it is supposed that this accounts
for the lelay in getting into commun-
ication with the brothers. 1t is ex-
pected that one or both of them will
arrive within the next few days and
give directions as to the disposition of
the body.
Antonio Sandoval Y Griego, the
rancher who discovered the body of
Armour, was formerly justice of the
peace in his precinct. He is a man in
very moderate circumstances and the
reward of $1,000 to which he now be-
comes entitled will be a big piece of
fortune to him.
