Women Campaign
For Right to Study
Law at Columbia
Forty Judges and Lawyers
Back Movement Started by
Women's City Club

The Women's City Club has begun
campaign to force the Columbia Law
School TO open its classes TO women
students. The movement has been in
dorsed b. forty judges and lawyers of
New York City. whose names appear
in a pamphlet entitled "Shali Women
Be Admitted TO the Columbia Law
SCHOOL,"
Copies of this pamphlet were re
ceived yesterday by every student and
instructor in Columbia University.
Many members of the faculty have al
ready declared themselves in favor of
co-education in the school. Professor
James c. Egbert. director of the sum.
Iast year SLOWING ,ES women os to attend
the summer school law classes.
Another member Of the faculty, who
refused 20 allow his name TO be used.
explained yesterday the reason why
CO educational law school was opposed.
at is a fact" he said, that for fifty
years the law school has been known
throughout the country as place for
the instruction of men alone. One OF
the greatest assets of the school is the
unusually high quality Of its student
body.
Year after year men come in in
creasing numbers from colleges all
over the country TO take their law
work here. A great many of these are
from institutions which are co-edu
cational, and these are induced to come
partly by the fact that we are not CO
educational If the result of admitting
women to the Columbia Law School
would be TO keep any considerable num-
Der of these high grade desirable stu
dents away and cause them 70 go to
Harvard or other law schools legal
in this state would suffer
seriously"
Students prominent in the law school
said Yesterday that they could see no
reason Why women should not be adj
mitted.
Among the lawyers and judges who
the pamphlet says. approved OF the plan
are Charles l.. Guy Lamar Hardy,
Leonard Hand, Delaney Nicoll, Al
ton b. Parker. Samuel Seabury. Fran
els Lynde Stetson. Henry l.. Stimson
and Henry A. Wise.

"Hulnpty Durnpty"
Killed by a Fall
On Icy Sidewalk
Tony Denier Had Tumbled
for Years in Clown Part
Without Injury

Tony Denier. famous for forty years
as the original Humpty Dumpty clown,
died yesterday az the result of fall
on an icy sidewalk in Kingston. y. y,
where he was an inmate of the aims
house. IL was the final irony of fate
that had logged the aged clown since
his retirement eight years ago with a
fortune that he deemed ample for his
last years. He was seventy-eight years
old
Seventy, Denier figured, was an age
at which no man should be clown.
Upon attaining that age he went TO
Kingston to look for a house.
Kingston had been the home of
Daniel Sully. the actor. who was life
long friend of Denier's. Sully died in
June, 1910, and few months later
Denier visited Mrs. Louise Sully, the
the visit was that the pair were mar

declared under oath that Mrs. Sully
was the wooer. that she had described
her loneliness in fearful language and
had bemosned the fact that. although
she owned or held mortgages on hun
dreds of acres Of farm land, she had
not the ready cash even to pay her
late husbands debts.
Denier's fortune lasted four years,
and his welded life was of the same
duration. The $4,000 he had saved.
he testified in proceedings he brought
TO recover it last December. went to
pay Sully's debts, to buy an automobile
for his wife, repair her sealskin coat
and TO rehabilitate mills that she
owned. In June, 1914. she told him,
he said. that she was going TO live with
her family and he could go 10 hell"
He went to the poorhouse, and al
though his suit resulted in Judgment
for $4,000 in his favor, he still lived
in the poorhouse.

Buried on Suspicion
Witness Believed Dead, but
LAWYER Wouldn't Be Too Sure

at is a rule to which most good law
vers adhere" observed a well known
attorney, according to "The San Fran
cisco Argonaut," "never to tell more
than one knows. There was an incident
in a Western town wherein lawyer
carried the rule to the extreme. Coun-
sci for one side objected to a person
whose name was on the courts register
for some purpose or other, on the
ground that he was dead.
"The counsel on the other side de-
clined to accept the assurance, and de-
manded conclusive testimony on the
point. whereupon counsel for the other
side arose arf gave corroborative evil
dence as to the decease of the man IN
question. But, sir, how do you know
the mans dead?' demanded the oppos-
ing counsel. Well was the reply. i
don't know; it's very difficult to prove
AS suspected, you don't know whether
he's dead or not NO, but | do know
this-they buried him about month
ago on suspicion

Grand Dukes Modesty
Persians Scarcely Recognized
DISTINGUISHED Russian Visitor

Grand Duke Boris of Russia recently
made the first visit ever extended by
member of the Russian nobility to the
ancient town of Urumiah, in Persian
Armenia. BY order of the authorities
every shop in the bazaars was deco
rated, and all the streets and squares
were adorned with fine Persian rugs
and other decorations dear to the
Oriental heart" says "The San Fran
cisco Argonaut." Several arches were
erected, and all the way from the land
ing place at the lake to the city, dis
lance of twelve miles, the Grand Duke
found crowds lining both sides of the
road. The masses were expecting his
entry TO be after the manner Of Fer
sian prince. They were all ready to
make their bows to the ground, and
many had prepared to kill a sacrficisl
offering to him as he passed. But to
their disappointment. the Grand Duke
passed them in most unpretentlous
fashion, and many of the populace even
failed to recognize him as he passed

Mrs. Wheeldon, a Daughter
and Son-in-Law Sentenced
to Penal Servitude
One Daughter Freed
Lawyer Startles Court by Sug-
costing Trial by Ordeal
for Defendants

London. March 10. - Mrs Alice
Wheeldon. her daughter. Mrs. Winifred
Mason. and the latter's husband, Al
fred George Mason, were found guilty
to day Of conspiracy 20 murder Premier
LLOYD George and Arthur Henderson,
member of the War Council. Miss Har-
riet Ann Wheeldon, another daughter
Of Mrs. Wheeldon, was acquitted.
Mrs. Wheeldon was sentenced TO ten
years penal servitude. A sentence oil
seven years was imposed upon Alfred
Mason. while his wife was given hve
years penal servitude.
Judge Low in summing up the case
said that if the poison that inquired i'll
the case had been required for dogs; as
had been claimed, it was unlikely thaI
such particular poisons as the ones
named would have been selected IN
such large quantity and with SUCH Sc
crecv and mystery. There was very
slight evidence against Harriet Wheel,
don. who appeared to know nothing o.
poisons, he said.
Jury Out Twenty Minutes
The Jury was out for consideration
of its verdict for only twenty minutes
In the course Of an eloquent speech
:. II. Ria. the Mahometan lawyer, act
inc as attorney for the defendants,
startled the courtroom by suggesting
trial by ordeal. He referred to the
medieval form of judicial trial, IN
which. in place of evidence, super
natural aid is invoked. as in test by
fire. water. poison or other agencies.
Attorney Ria had been endeayorlng
to impress the jury with the alleged
sinister significance of the failure OF
the Crown to produce Gordon, the Sc
cret government agent. as a witness
against the four defendants. lie de-
ciared Gordon was a police spy who
had started the whole plot, who had
lured the defendants on, and then when
he had got them we'll within his net hal
handed them over to another agent
named Booth, so that his own connec-
ton with the case would not be so
flagrantly apparent.
Suggests Trial by Ordeal
Then after a long and Impressive
pause Ria suddenly said:
ain the absence of Gordon ] would
suggest that the defendants should
have a trial by ordeal"
The Judge was puzzled. and said;
az fear that would be impossible. It
has been abolished. Do you seriously
suggest the ladies should walk over hot
ploughshares in order to prove their
innocence ?"
RiZa-"J do"
The Judge-"It is no use submitting
such a suggestion. You are not seri-
GUS"
Riza-"I do seriously suggest it,"

TELLING SENATORS TO STAND ASIDE

WHILE laymen Is not supposed to be master Of
" intricate problems OF constitutional law II occms
to many at this time that il the United States had
rule that would enable the patriotic members OF that body
to tell certain senator's to stxd aside in this peraus time
the enforcement Of such regulation would be OF great
help to government which is engaged in against
powerful military force
No one would suggest that military rules be applied
to the United States senate yet the situation in the upper
national house recalls of the rules OF the military
establishment which provides that person in the army
may be charged with Conduct prcudicia to good gov
ernment" That charge Is sweeping that defense
can be made against it any person has uttered
word OF adverse about the government SO the
charge sticks and those found guilty are told to stand

likely the senate may be forced to find kind of
