WILKINS HANGS SELF
Cut Down Alive by His Guards, bu
Dies Soon Afterwards

Mineol, N Y, June 30.-Walter
Keene wilkins, convicted of wife
murder and awaiting the death sen
tence, which was to have been pro
nounced on Tuesday, committed SUI.
eide in the Jail here by hanging.
The aged physician, who was con-:
victed by the jury Friday .afternoon
obtained 2, rope sin: some manner
and probably concealed it beneath
his clothing'before asking his: guard
to-. escort him to the BATHROOM
There, while the backs of Guard:
John Mills and William Henderson
were turned, he fastened a crude
moose, threw it about his neck, fast
encd the end of the rope to pipe.
kicked away the pail upon which h
stood, and was swinging when th3
guards discovered him.
The noise made by the pail at
tracted their attention. Mills and
Henderson Immediately cut dow!
the swaying body and found the
pulse still beating. They applied
first aid, at the same time calling
loudly for help. Other guards came
hurriedly and Dr.. Guy Cleghorn
the Jail physician, was on the scene
within a few minutes. He directed
that other physicians be summoned
from Nassau Hospital, but a short
distance away, and requested tc
fetch a pulmotor.
It was 7:45 o'clock when DR.. Wal
kins kicked the pail from under hlm
Less than ten minutes later the pull
motor was being used, but with 1T
tie appreciable effect.
A bulletin issued by the doctor:
as they worked over him at 8 o'cloct
said there was little hope. he dlet
few minutes sfterward.
Every possible precaution was be
Ieved to have been taken to preven
the very thing which took place
DIR. Wilkins was too old and infrn
for any apprehension to be enter
tanned that he might attempt u
take his own life. whether or no
his conviction as he claimed, wa
unjust. was common belief. It wa
thought that if guilty, as the Jur.
had pronounced him, he would see
to cheat the electric chair, and, tina
if innocent, as he vehemently asseV
eraetd, he would probably seek I
end the endurable humiliation b
the shortest possible means.

PEACE RETURNS
TO THE WORLD
War Formally Ended as

CEREMONY is PLAIN
China's Seal Not Affixed Because
She Was Not Permitted to File Her
Reservations.

World peace was signed and sealed
in the historic Hall of Mirrors at
Versailles Saturday afternoon, but un-
der circumstances which somewhat
dimmed the expectations of those who
had worked and fought during long
years of war and months of ne@o-
totions fc., its achievement.
The absence of the Chinese dele
gates, who at the last moment were
unable to reconcile themselves to the
Shantu9g settlement, and left the
Eastern Empire outside the formal
purviews Of peace, struck the first
discordant note in the assembly.
A written protest which General
Jan Christian SHUTS lodged with his
signature was another disappoint
mcnt to the makers of the treaty.
But, bulking larger, was the atti-
tude of Germany and her plenipota"--
tTaries, which left them, as evident
from the official program of the day
ar.l from the expression ,of Premier
Clcmenceau, still outside any formal
reconciliation, and made actual res
toration to regular relations and IN
tercourse with the Allied nations de-
pendent, not upon the signature o.
the "preliminaries of peace" but upon
ratification by the national Assembly.
To M. Clemenceau's stern warning,
in his opening remarks that they
would be expected; and held, to OBJ
serve the treaty provisions Loyalty
gates, through DR.. Haniel Won Hahn
hausen, replied after returning to
sh.:r hotel, that had they known they
would be treated on different status
after signing than the Allied rep
res2nta;tives, as shown by their sep
arate exit before the general body of
the conference, they never would have
signed.

Amsterdam, June ,30.-The Allied
and Associated Powers will not ask
for the extradtion Of the former
En- peror, the Paris correspondent OF
The Telegraaf says he learns, but
will ask the Dutch Government in
the name of the League of Natlnos
to see that Herr Hohenzollern does
net escape the moral consequences.
Il is expected that as a member
IF the League, he adds, Holland
vii! inform the former Emperor
that he must appear before an in
te,Rational court or leave the coun-
try. A highly placed French au-
thcrity on international law told the
correspondent that the proceedings
against the former Emperor would
be on moral grounds and the sent-
ence would be of moral character
entirely. There is no question OF a
death sentence or imprisonment
the correspondent was told.
It is probable, the correspondent
continues, that the crimes Of the
former Emperor against interna-
tional morality in starting the wa
and in violating Belgian neutralit!
will be condemned severely.
