Admit ~ Murders
Roundup of South Side
Gang Due to BLunder
of Bandits in Raid

CHICAGO, Nov. Eight more
murders, bringing the total to twelve.
were confessed to-day by the South
Side gang of "black hand bandits.
Police say most of the victims were
killed when they attempted to frus-
trate robberies. The prisoners have
also confessed to $50 robberies and 250
burgla res.
The capture of the gang is rated as
one of the police departments greatest
achievements. A f1msy plot on the
part of leaders led to the capture.
Victims of a poolroom hoId-up told
the police that a young Italian named
Thomas Errico was unmolested by the
three bandits who robbed the place.
Detectives arrested Errico and Sc
cured confession. He was a new re-
cruit and acted as advance agent"
His duty was to go into the place and
look things over. During the robbery,
IN which one man was killed, Errico's
pals did not go through his pockets,
though he pretended to be an inmate
of the place and stood with hands up.
Members Of the gang, police say,
declare that Santo Orlando, one time
leader of the clique, whose body with
fourteen bullet wounds, was found
floating in the Drainage Canal, was
slain because he was double CROSSING
his pals"

Chain of Coffee Houses
Launched by Roosevelts

The Cafe Paulista, which was incor-
porated at Albany Monday with Theo-
dore Roosevelt's sons and Philip j.
Roosevelt and Dr. Richard Derby as
directors, is the first of a chain of
coffee houses the family intends to
start to take the place of the saloon.
Philip j. Roosevelt explained yes
terday that he and his associates be-
lieved that at least one element of the
saloon-its sociability-should not be
allowed to perish from the earth.
Toward this end, he said, they had
embarked upon their commercial ven
ture. One coffee house where the bev-
erage is sold in all its true Brazilian
strength and blackness already has
been opened at 10S West Forty-fourth
Street. Others, it is predicted, will
follow if this is a success.
The existing link of the chain that
is to be is furnished in green and gold,
with oak woodwork and furniture
Portraits of Shakespeare and Voltaire,
both of whom sang coffee's praises, as
we'll as a painting of the harbor of
Rio de Janeiro, hang on the walls.
In addition to coffee, Brazilian
pastry, sandwiches and some specially
prepared Brazilian dish-a different
one each day-constitute the refreshS

Allies Demand Germany
Explain Protocol Delay
Supreme Council Note Expresses Surprise at Envoy
Departure for Home and Calls OH Berlin to De-
clare Its Intentions Toward Treaty Enforcement

PARlS, Nov. 25.-Surprisc at the de-
parture Of DR.. Simson, head of the
plenlpotentiaries sent by Germany to
tins city in connection with the proto-
col relative to the carrying out of the
terms of rhe armistice, was expressed
IN note delivered to Kurt Won Lersner,
mead OF the German delegation at Yer
sailles, by the Supreme Council last
night.
If the Treaty of Versailles is not put
into effect by December /, the note
adds, the responsibility will lie with
the German government, as the depar-
ture of DR.. Simson inevitably DELAYS
further conferences which must be
held. DR.. Won Lersner is asked, in
conclusion, to state what are the in
tentions of the German. government.
1t was learned to-day that Won Lers-
ner sent letter to Secretary Dutasta
of the Peace Conference last Friday to
the effect that the head Of the pleni-
potentiaries had become convinced,
after the consultations he had had in
Paris, that he must consult the Ger
man government regarding the proto-
col, especially as the National Assem-
bly, would have to approve the decisions
reached.
The Won Lersner letter protested
against the question Of the repatriation
of prisoners again being bound up
with that of putting the treaty into eff
feet, it being pointed out that the Al
lied governments had previously sepa-
rated these issues. If the promise of
France was not kept, the letter de-
clared, German public opinion would
not have confidence in any further
promise France might make.
Premier Clemenceau, as president of
the peace conference, replied on Satur-
day. saying that Won Lersner's letter
made him question if the treaty could
be put into force on December l owing
to the German governments action, al
though that government had known the
contents of the protocol since Novcm-
ber !.
The delay, said NJ. Clemenccau, would
be regrettable, as it might raise doubts

HALIFAX, N. S.. Nov. 25.-The
Prince of Wales salled for home this
afternoon on board the battle-cruiser
Renown, which brought him to the New
World on August 12.
Saluted with twenty-one guns from
the citadel and preceded by a destroy
er, the giant cruiser, bedecked with
flags, made her way slowly through the
shipping in the harbor and then, her
propellers whirling, put out to sea-
The prince landed officially this
morning from the Renown to the boom
ing of citadel guns and inspected mill
tary and naval guards of honor at the
dockyard. Then he laid the corner
stone of a monument to the Duke of
Kent, who in 1903 gave Halifax the
town clock which still tick-ticks val
iantly.
The Prince visited the Convent of the
Sacred Heart, Dalhousie University
Children's Hospital, School for the
Blind and the Halifax Ladies' College
At 1890 o'clock he returned to the
battle-cruiser to play the host to prov
lnce and city officials.
AT last nights state dinner no liquor
was served. "The Halifax Herald"
says the banquet was the first "dry''
affair of the kind ever given by ma
tlonal government in the empire The
fact, the paper says, is indicative of
the trend of the times.
The following radio message from
the prince, on board the Renown, was
received tonight:
ITO his honor the Lieutenant
Governor of Nova Scotia: Please ac-
cept my warmest thanks and convey
them also to the people of Halifax for
the hearty sendoff which you have
given me. leave Canada with great
regret and whole-hearted gratitude
for welcome which l can never for
get. Au Revoir."

JUAREZ. Mexico, Nov General
Felipe Angeles and his two companions,
Major Nester Enciso de Arce and An
tonia Trillo, captured near Parral,
Chihuahua, November Is by Major Ga
bino Sandoval, were found guilty by a
morning and sentenced to be shot at
noon to-day, according to information
received by Judge Gonzalez Medina, of
the Mexican Federal court, here this
afternoon. The charge on which An
geles was tried was rebellion against
the Carranza government.
The sentence was not carried out. it
was said, because the attorneys for
Angeles appealed to the Federal Court
at Juarez and the Supreme Court of
Mexico at Mexico City for stay of
execution by applying for writ of
habeas corpus.
The Juarez court denied the appeal,
Judge Medina holding his court had no
Jurisdiction and the Supreme Court
was the only tribunal which could act.
BESIDES the Supreme Court, President
Carranza also could save the con-
demned man with pardon.
1t was said by court officials that if
the Supreme Court grants the applca
ton it simply means that court Will
only review the proceedings of the
court martial, and that if no errors are
found it will mean carrying out of the
sentence unless Carranza intervenes
Carranza already has many petitions

faced the military court of four Car
rama generals and defended the ac-
tlons of himself ard his companions

torney to Deputize Law
yer as Investigator of
Office of the Prosecutor

Governor Smith announced last night
at City Hall that he had requested d
District Attorney Swami to appoint
George Gordon Battle as special AS
sistant District Attorney to act as
counsel to the extraordinary grand
jury of which Raymond f. Almirall is
foreman. Mr. Swami said last night
he would comply with the request
In making the announcement the
Governor made public letters he wrote
to District Attorney Swami and Mr..
Amiral apprisng them of what he
was doing. In his letter to Mr.. AL
mirall the Governor says he Judges
from the letters that have been pub
lished that you have no confidence in
the District Attorney and he, in turn,
has no confidence in your jury"
The appointment OF Mr.. Battle is the
sequel Of the bitter controversy be-
tween Mr.. Almirall and the grand jury
with the District Attorney following
the original charge, emanating from
Hearst -Hylan sources, that there was
d conspiracy last summer on the part
of the striking Interborough Railway
employees and the company officials to
force the city and state authorities to
assent to an increase in fares on the
Intcrborough system.
AlmiraII Asked Inquiry
On October 10 Mr. Almirall wrote the
Governor asking for the appointment Of
Mr. Battle as special examining Off
Ger to inquire into the doings of the
District Attorneys office in connection
with incidents leading up to and fol
lowing the lnterborough strike.
Mr.. Battle then was chairman OF the
Irwin Untermyer campaign committee
and as such encountered the oppos ition
of Hearsts newspapers. The Gov
ernor's friends and advisers said last
night that he had placed the RESPONSE
bility of running down the nspiracy'
in connection with the lnterborough
strike and other mysterious transac-
tions limited at by Mr. Almirall in his
correspondence on Mr.. Battle, who
while nominally under the direction OF
District Attorney Swami, is really ar
appontee of the Governor.
