GILLIGAN CASE GOES
 TO JURY TOMORROW
Judge P0stp0nes Charge Following Argument By
 Prosecutor AlcOrn.

Hartford, July 12.-Argument of the states case against Mrs. Gilligan, charged with the murder of Franklin K. Andrews, was made by the states attorney today. At the conclusion of MT. Alcorn's summing up, Judge Gardiner Greene informed the jury that he should have to charge them at considerable length, if he began after the lunch hour the jury would not get the case until late in the day for consideration of the verdict, ac- cordingly he had decided to excuse the jury until 10 o'clock Friday when he would deliver his charge.
 MT. Alcorn's argument was on the analysis of the evidence alleging to- gather a chain of circumstances which he claimed proved Mrs. Gilli- gan guilty of murder in the first de- gree.
 During MT. Alcorn's plea, Mrs. Gill ligan showed much agitation and when the states attorney asked inn pressively Was she insane?" the woman cried out "Oh dear Oh dear!'' Her daughter, Mary Archer, slipped her arm around her mother. Mrs. Gill ligan wept for several minutes.
 There is no case in the annals of Connecticut that matches this in im- portance,' said MT. Alcorn in closing. "An the facts and circumstances prove the accused guilty of the foul est of murders. I have done my duty. Gentlemen I ask you only to do yours.''
 Judge Wm. s. Case of the superior court occupied a seat beside Judge Greene. The court room was filled with spectators, among. them 30 to 40 lawyers.

VALERA'S SUCCESS
 AROUSES ENGLAND
Some See Irish Convention Doomed By Election of Sim F'einer
 to Parliament.

London, July 12.-The election of Edward De Valera as member of par liament for East Clare, the third Sim Felner to be returned to parliament of late, is treated as an event of great political consequence by the morning papers, which devote considerable space to the incident. The tendency Of the uniOnist press reflecting their adVlces from Belfast and Dublin is to emphasize what 1t always contended the folly of the government in ib- erating Sim Fein prisoners, and re- training to deal with revolutionary talk and acts as they would be dealt with in England. The papers regard the situation as gravely threatening, 1nasmuch as they can see nothing in the Sim Fein movement but rebellion The liberal press also is alarmed but rather for the position of the official nationalist party and for the prospect for the esta tablishment of constitution al home rule. One opinion seems com mon to all parties, namely that the prospects of the convention in Ire land to consider home rule is SC. riously impaired if not entirely doom- ed. Another view is that the election is an ir7eparable disaster for the Irish natlOnallSt party, winch many papers explain held the country for years in the dead hand of rigid machine policy.
 The Sim Fein movement is regard ed in the same quarter as an ex- pression of dicontent and vehement resentfulness of a long course of ad- minstrative folly indicating rather lack of confidence with present par
 
 tionary tendency, and in this respect resembles a state of mind which often leads Prussian electors, who them selves are not all socialists, to support socialist candidates at the polls.
 The Telegraph's parliamentary re- porter says all the Irish sections of the house of commons regard the re- suit as virtually a death blow to tho nationalist party.

President Declines to Reveal
 Method of Drafting New Army ONLY 21. STATES REPORT
Delay May Cause Further Postpone ment of Conscl1ption-Serial Num- bers to Be Drawn and Photographed to All Parts of Country.

Washington, July 12.-Persistent inquiries from all parts of the coun- try about the method to be followed in selecting men for the army caused war departm ment officials to explain today that President Wilson's deter imitation to have absolute fairness govern the process was responsible for the decision to withhold an- nouncement- of the exact plan until the very eve of the drawing.
 The exemption regulations and all other moves in the making of the new army have received the approval of the president personally and the draft regulations also will come from the White House. All that is known now is that the drawing will be from serial numbers corresponding to num- bers on registration cards and that 1t will take place in Washington, probably at the capitol. Secretary Baker, or some high official, will draw the numbers and then the process of selection will be pushed forward until there is flashed by telegraph to every community in the country the num- bers of the men drawn. It is under stood that the system planned is so simple that the work will be done in 8 few hours.
 So far only 21 states have reported to the provost generals office the completion of their organizations. In some of them the names and serial numbers of the men liable to draft already have been posted. The first city to report completely that part of her work was Kansas City.
 Some fear was felt at the war de- partment today that the delays in organizing may cause further post ponement of the draft.

REGULARS INCREASED
 BY 26 MORE MEN
Sergeant McCabe Estab- fishes Record for Recruit
 ing in This City.

Twenty-six men enlisted for the regular army and two more re- jected, is the remarkable recruiting achievement of Sergeant J. H. McCabe of the United States army, who has been here less than one day. Twenty eight men responded to his call for volunteers, made in an open air speech at the corner of Main and East Main streets last evening, and tonight he will make another open air address at the same place at 7:30 o'clock. Ser geant McCabe, who is accompanied by First Class Private Isenbergi will be here until Saturday night, by which time he hopes to enlist a half hundred New Britainites for Uncle Sam's army.
 Sergeant McCabe, a veteran of 22 years service under the Stars and Stripes, is connected with the New Haven recruiting office and has been travelling all over the state recruiting men for the army. 'The response al- ready made by the men of New Britain is just as good as 1t has been in any place where I have stopped" :" he stated this noon. Sergeant McCabe is a forceful speaker and gives his talk straight from the shoulder. His words are sincere and convincing. He scorns the effusions of the demonstra- tive crowd and last night, when a. number of men began to applaud his remarks, he said: Stop that. Hand clapping never got the United States anything yet" In conclusion, after assuring any possible recruits that they would be assigned singly, or in groups, to any particular regimental company to which they expressed a preference, and explaining that if several friends wanted to enlist and desired to remain together he would arrange that, he said: Come on now boys, enlist in the service of the good old U. S. A., and when we've got enough we'll go over there and give them the trimming for which they are waiting.''
 Of the men who have enlisted, some will be sent to Fort Slocum, N. Y, to- morrow, while others will go on Saturday. The new recruits are: Patrick Collins, 102 Sexton street; Frank Patz, 33 Lafayette street; Fran cisco Palli, 54 Lafayette street; Alex ander Spain, 23 Harrington avenue,
 Frank Biano. e5 Laurel street; Will liam Temple, 341 Elm street; Talo

 Stranger With Chewing Gum
 Local police, as we'll as other au- thorities about the state. are on the alert for the apprehension of a young men, whose description has been sent broadcast, who is wanted in connec- ton with the embezzlement of $125 from the manager of Leonard's Main street confectionery store.
 The young man appeared at the store a week ago, representing himself as an agent of the Beech-Nut Chew ing Gum Co.,, and remained in the store several days giving out samples. On Thursday he received two checks, supposedly from the company. One was for 125, his salary, and the other was for $10, his expense account. He asked the proprietor to endorse them as an accommodation and after cash ing the checks he disappeared. Both checks were bogus.
 Two years ago man answering the same general description worked f1im-ham game on the Beech Nut Co.,, and was sent to jail for two years. It is thought possible that the same mar may have passed out bad cheeks in thu City.

 Plainville, July 12.-"Arrived safely at port somewhere in France" was in substance the information con- tained in cablegram received last evening by Mrs. John Gibson Of Bank street, regarding her son, Elmer Howard, who it is believed, was a member of the gun crew on board the steamer Kansan which was torpedoed and sunk by g. German submarine last Monday.

He was en- listed as a seaman and was probably made a member of the gun crew for the Kansan's voyage.

WASHINGTONpS FIX PLANTATION FOR 1N-
 CREASED FIGURES. 

Washington, July l2.-War industries which have drawn large temporary populations or workers to some sections were today considered responsible for swollen population estl- mates accredited to many American cities by the war de- partment in its work of basing apportionments for drafting the new national army.
 For the purpose of the ap- portionment only, new popula- ton figures have been devised for each county and city, based on war registration in these subdivisions, and the allotment will be approximately two- thirds of one per cent. of the revised population.
 Delay of many district ex- emption boards caused war department officials today to almost abandon hope of mal1- ing the first drawing this week. Duplicate lists of all registrants and their numbers must be in possession of the department before the drawing is made.

FOOD BILL TANGLE
 THOUGHT HOPELESS
Democratic Leaders of Senate
 Throw Up Hands in Despair APPEAL TO WHITE HOUSE
AgricultuTal Committee Decides Not
 to Recommend Gore Amendment- Steel Men Agree to Turn Industry
 Over to Nation,

Washington. July 12.-Democratio leaders of the senate, finding 1t we'll nigh impossible to reconcile conflict ing views on the food control bill, decided today to appeal to President Wilson to outline his opinion of what compromise should be agreed upon to hasten action on the measure.
 The senate agricultural committee decided today not to make any en- dorsement or recommendation re- garding the Gore substitute bill. Sen- ator Gore, however, plans to offer it as an individual proposition, with the understanding that many of it's provisions will have general support in lieu of those in the pending bill.
 Agreement on Steel.
 Formal announcement was made by Secretary Baker today that an agree ment had been reached with repre- sentatives of the American steel in- dustry in conference here, under which the entire product of the in dustry will be made available for the governments war purposes at a price to be determined on the basis of a cost of production inquiry being con- ducted by the federal trade commits sion.
 The government also assured the steel men that it's war orders would be distributed over the entire iron and steel producing capacity of the country, leaving no single producer or group of producers to carry an unfair share of the war burden.
 The trading with the enemy bill Is in the hands of the senate following It's passage by vivavoce vote by the house late yesterday. The measure, as finally approved by the house after only a three days consideration was changed but little from the form in which it was reported from the com- mittee.
