Would Transfer Paul Chapman
From Death House in Sing Sing
Prominent Men Suggest That Committee Wait Upon
Governor in Move to Have Boy Convicted of Murder
Spared Distressing Scenes-Prisoners Kept
Indoors Eleven Weeks

Paul Chapman, the sixteen-year- old
Doy awaiting execution in Sing Sing, is
entering upon the eleventh week of the
severest punishment ever inflicted
upon condemned inmate.
The death house is rather crowded
and there have been a number of exc
cutlons lately. On May 16 John Kush
nleruck, boy Of eighteen years, was
eiectrocuted and an unusual demonstra-
tion took place among the prisoners in
protest against putting a minor to
death. AS punishment 20. this they
were deprived for ten days of the
privilege of entertaining visitors and
OF purchasing the small luxuries Of the
prison. Their shoes and chairs were
taken away from them and they were
refused their customary exercise in the
yard.
Eleven weeks have passed since the
demonstration and the men are still
confined to their cells.
The first two weeks of confinement
accordihg to statements Of prison Of
hcials yesterday, we're intended as pun
lshment. They have been kept indoors
the last nine weeks to enable work
men to spread concrete layer over the
court yard.
previously mudholes used to form
IN the yard" said an offlciai, "and con-
dltions were very unsanitary. We have
to make the improvement, and in doing
SO we are forced to hold the men in
their cells. When the job is finished
however, they can have their air and
exercise again, and it will be much
nicer for them outside than it used to
be. But the men are no longer being
punished"

Among the hundreds of replies that
have come in response to the petition
printed in The Tribune asking the Gov
ernor to save Paul Chapman's life
there have been a number of letters
from prominent men suggesting that q
committee wait upon Governor Whit
man and request that the boy be re-
moved from the death house to some
other part Of the prison, or to some
other prison, pending the appeal for
another trial.

Prof. Egbert, Director of Summe,

Columbia University officials an
nounced yesterday that meeting of
the National party, composed of pro-
war radicals and Socialists, which was
to have been held in a hall of the
School of journalism, 116th Street and
Broadway, tonight, has been called off
because it was discovered that poll
ties was to be discussed.
The National party, which was or
ganized after John Spargo, j. G. Phelps
Stokes, William English Walline and
others had deserted the Socialist party
or account of the latter's anti-war atti-
tude, and which stands for government
ownership of public utilities, demo
cratic taxation" and labor legislation,
has some followers who live in the vi
entity, of the university. A few days
ago they called upon Professor James
c. Egbert, director of the summer
school, and obtained his permission to
hold meeting. Professor Egbert said
he gave the permiss ion on the under.
standing that the principles for which
the party stands were to be expounded
to the students, and it was to be in no
sense political gathering
A day later Professor Egbert was

said:
you want the National party! If you
want real democracy in your politics,
your industries, your country's rela-
tions with other nations, attend mass
meeting at the Hall Of journalism,
Tuesday night"
1t was the term "mass meeting"
which determined Professor Egbert
that the affair must be called off.
Visions of a rousing political rally.

THAT mass meeting cannot be. held"
announced Professor Egbert over the
telephone.
"Why not?" interrogated Alan Nc
Curdy, the party's executive secretary,
in surprise.
Because we cannot house any po-
litical propaganda meeting in the uni
versity. If we did the Republicans and
Democrats and all other parties would
stampede US with their meetings. 1t

Very well-it's called off right now"

Old Clutch Neck" Gives 59
Napoleon Street, Newark, Un-
furls Service Flag

NEWARK, N. j., July ga service
flag containing ifty-nine stars was un-
furled this evening by the residents of
Napoleon Street, thoroughfare only
two blocks in length, which before the
war used to be called Dutch Neck, be-
cause of the Teutonic sounding names
adorning almost every door on both
sides of the street. Now that appella-
tion is fighting word in the neighbor-
hood, and some Of Napoleon Streets
best fighters are still at home because
of age or youth.
The flag was hung at the corner of
Wilson Avenue, which used to be Ham
burg Place before German street names
were eliminated in this city. There
were addresses by Mayor Gillen and
several clergymen, and a dance. to
which admission was to be gained only
by the purchase Of thrift stamps. The
committee in charge of the celebration
consisted Of Edward Siegel, Miss Anna
Koenig, Mrs. William Wang, Mrs. John
Hummel and Mrs. Daniel Martin.

More Pearls Taken
In 100000 Theft
Are Traced to N. 7.
'Beansy" Rosenfeld Ques-
toned as to Purchase Of
$4,000 Necklace

Sigmund (Beansy) Rosenfeld, pro-
priotor of the Central Merchants Club"
of 1913 East Seventeenth Street, which
was closed during District Attorney
Swann's anti-gambling crusade last
spring, was called TO the District At
torney's office yesterday to explain a
charge that he bought q pearl necklace
for $4,000 last March which was part
of a 5000 600 haul made by jewel
thieves in broad daylight in the sales
rooms of the Heller Rose Company,
Chicago.
James Driscoll, alias English" one of
four men awaiting trial in Chicago for
participating in the robbery, confessed
to States Attorney Maclay Hoyne, OF
Chicago, that he met Rosenfeld in the
Hotel McAlpin and asked him to ex-
anime the necklace. Driscoll said
Rosenfeld took the pearls to a jewelry
store run by John and Sam Schepps, in
Sixth Avenue. near the Hippodrome, to
be appraised.
After Schepps had examined them,
! Driscoll said, Rosenfeld agreed to take
them and he went to his bank and drew
$4,000
Driscoll in his confession described
Rosenfeld as stocky man about FIVE
feet, three inches in height, with puffs
under his eyes and with a marked Jew
;sh cast Of features. He SAID ne owned
, the Cinderella Cafe, at Lexington Ave-
nue. and East Eighty-sixth Street.
Rosenfeld told Mr. Swami yesterday
he did not know Driscoll and never
bought string Of pearls in his life.

count.

On the Screen
Charles Ray Journeys to q
Small Town, Keeping His
Friends in Line

Once upon time, long ago, we knew
Victor Schertzinger, but we didn't re.
member that he had such a wonderful
fund Of humor as he must have hac
to direct "a Nine O'clock Town." ir
which Charles Ray is starring this
week at the Rialto.
The picture delighted, because it is
full of delicate touches of fun which
must be seen to be appreciated.
Of course, praising the work OF
Charles Ray is like carrying Goals tc
Newcastle or painting the lily or some
thing else equally unnecessary. Since
the first time we saw Ray in "The
Coward" our capitulation has been per
manent.
The present picture is one of the
best vehicles he has had. Jane Novak
is the leading woman. She is ex-
tremely likable in the part of Kathe-
rine, the belle of the "Nine O'clock
Town." and she is almost as pretty
as Katherine Mcdonald and not un.
like her in type.
The story tells of John Clary, who
owns the Emporium, the largest de-
partment store in the town.
At the earnest entreaties of his son
David old John has built a new store
on the site of the old one and has
promised to introduce some new meth.
DDS. When David suggests a live corset
model to parade the aisles to the music
of the local band, John cannot ac.
quiesce and David withdraws his sup
port and journeys to a l o'clock town
viz, New York.
Here he goes to work in the necktie
department Of we'll known store al
SO per week, and he writes home that
since his connection with the new firm
their profits have amounted to more
than $4,000. Mother Clary reads &
full page advertisement in The Tribune
and says, Look, John, what our Davey
has done for Gimbels" So back comes
Davey to make the Emporium flourish
and look like Gimbels
Through his foolishness and gen
eral inability he manages to do it, too
stumbling over success in the exasper
ating way that people will do wher
they are not guided by their brains
with corset models husbands, black
mailers, lady pickpockets and bargain
sales where he loses money faster thar
he can sell the goods, he sells the
business for $4,000.
Plausibility is not one of the strone
points Of the picture, but it is one O.
the most entertaining things we have
seen in long time
The comedy is called "Her Blightee
Love" There was besides the animal
ed magazine, a picture called "Tht
Tides of Yesterday" made by the Edu
cational Films Corporation.
The overture is from "Traviata.
Annie Rosner sang the waltz song from
Gypsy Love" Desere La Sale sang the
aria from Benvenuto Cellini. The light
opera number is from High Jinks.S

Brooklyn, a retired wool broker and
importer, died Sunday at the home of
his son, Edward C. Seed, in Red Bank,

indoors may have serious effect upon
his health in view Of the fact that his
father nnd brother died of tubercu-
losis, and he may be subject to the
same disease. Many letters also call
attention to the effect on this boys
mind of witnessing so many of his
companions taken out to die, and plead
that SO long as there is hope of saving
him he should not be exposed to ex-
periences which may make a nervous
wreck of him if he is allowed to live.
Chapman was indicted October 90
for the murder of Harry Regensburg
in Brooklyn under the law which
makes any one who has planned a fell
ony guilty of any capital crime in
which the felony may result, whether
he takes part in it or not. Paul, with
two other boys, Hugh and Leonidas
Davis, planned a robbery, but Paul did
not enter the house where it took
place. He watched in the yard out
side, and, it was claimed by the de-
fence, ran away before the fight began
that resulted in the death Of Regens-
burg,
Thousands Urge Pardon
After his conviction movement
was started by the Brooklyn Woman s
Club to work for the pardon of the
boy on account of his youth. A num-
Der of other organizations soon joined
the movement. including the Y. w.
C. A. of Jacksonville, Fla; the Legis-
lative League of New York, the Gamut
Club, the Society of Friends, the
Woman's Municipal League and the
Woman's Forum. An editorial in the
Tribune Institute, published May II,
brought responses from Maine to Cal
ifornia, protesting against the execu-
tion of a minor. All the jurors who
rendered q verdict of guilty against
him have signed petition asking for
his pardon.
Although an editorial in a Brooklyn
paper promptly condemned this protest
as "a piece Of feminine hysteria'
three-fourths of the signatures to the
petition now pouring into the Office OF
the boys attorney, Matthew M. Wood
are the signatures of men.

Nine. Sylvia then sang the "Habanera"
from Carmen" This she followed by
a cunning little song. half French,
half English, which, she said, was writ

she responded with the "Vivandiere."
Certainly Nine. Sylvia should be de-
lighted with her reception into the
world Of vaudeville.
TriXic Friganza can always be de-
pended on to have something new and
entertaining That sounds as though

Miss Friganza does not spare herself
In spite of the heat, she appears in a
big white coat, and after throwing rub

up the front of her coat, and there is
an image of the Kaiser She invites
the people to pelt the Kaiser, and they
do so with a will.
