Mo1yneaux Found Guilty
OF Joseph Cannon Death
Jury Recommends Mercy; Law
yer Forced to Give Up
500 Fee

John Molyneaux was found guilty of
manslaughter in the first degree in the
Supreme Court, Brooklyn, yesterday. A
recommendation of mercy was made to
Justice Callaghan by the jury.
Molyneaux was charged with killing
Joseph Cannon, thirty-five years old, in
a saloon at 116 Union Avenue, Brook
lyn. The defendant offered as his de-
fence the fact that he was insanely
jealous when he discovered that his
wife, Elizabeth, to whom he had been
married only few months, was receiv-
ing attentions from Cannon.
Molyneaux was a chauffeur, and it
was testified that he discovered Cannon
was paying attention to his wife one
night when he had Cannon for a fare
and drove him to meet Mrs. Molyneaux.
Michael Reiburn, an attorney engaged
by Molyneaux's father to defend his
son, was interrogated by Justice Cal
laghan when the case was concluded.
Reiburn, it was said, had been recon-
mended to Molyneaux by Probation
Officer List
After receiving retainer of $500
from the elder Molyneaux Reiburn is
said to have asked the court to assign
an attorney for the defendant. The
court assigned Francis McCaffrey.
After questioning Reburn the court
ascertained that the attorney had per
formed only minor duties in connection
with the case. He was ordered to re-
turn $70O of the $500 fee.

substantinte Press Agent Ed Norwood's
promise of two complete companies OF
aerialsts.
One Of the surprises Of tho day WAS
found among the Ringing features
that never before had been seen in
New York. Tho Australian woodchop-
pers, who stage contest such as Is
common among the stalwart bushmen
of Australia, gave an entirely new
touch to tho performance. Charles
Kingling said that the two husky
wolders Of the AK had grown accus-
toned TO circus crowds throughout the
country, but that they had trembled
before blase New York.
Wears Rollers Skates on Head
There were other surprises that had
not been numbered among the circus
attractions seen here in previous years.
Hilary Long, the upside-down man,
who wears roller skates upon his head
in long slide from the top Of the
building, new clown acts and animal
features that delighted the children
were among the other new novelties.
But it is likely that the troupe of
performers were as highly entertained
by the men, women and children they
viewed from the other side Of the arc
lights as was the audience by their
own antics. For many of the perform
ers in the former Ringling show never
before had seen New York. 1t had been
pictured to them as a cold hearted
city that turned thumbs down to every
thing in the way of new attraction
that did not at once appeal to its
discriminating tastes.
The applause that greeted the new

hearts of certain nervous performers.
Clowns who had laughed and per-
formed with a nervous tremor in their
throats became themselves again after
the afternoon finale. They agreed that
the heart of the New Yorker is as easy
to reach as that of the Chicagoan, or
the hick from What Cheer, Iowa
"I've seen every spot of the United
States, but l never enjoyed entertain
ing the people as much as | have right
here" said Al Miaco, a veteran of the
Ringing Brothers circus and the
Oldest clown, in point of years of SER
vice, in the world. "You can read a
man or woman by the way he or she
souled laugh at wholesome joke
:as anybody. I'm for Broadway from
now on"
Although it was frst-day perform
ance, with all the nervousness that ac-
companies the premiere showing of
the season, it was almost without mis-
haps. A velvet covered stairway that
should have carried Miss Bird Mill
man from an aerial platform to the
ground suddenly collapsed when she
stepped upon the topmost step. But
she took the fall with such apparent
ease that many of those in the audi

Jean Jaures's Slayer
Freed by French Jury
Judge Advocate Did Not Ask
Death Penalty for
Prisoner

PARIS, March 29.-Raoul Villain
was acquitted by jury to-day of the
murder on July 81, 1914, Of the French
Socialist leader, Jean Jaures.
Declaring that he did not ask for the
death penalty, but only that the ac-
cuscd should be imprisoned, Judge Ad-
vocate Begun opened the last day of
the trial. He reminded the court that
the fifty-six months which Villain had
spent in prison since his arrest would
be deducted from his sentence.
The acquittal Of Raoul Villain may
have unpleasant political consequences
in France, it is predicted, as the So
cialists may make political capital out
of it.
The Socialists have charged that the
assassination of Jaures was the result
of plot Of French jingoes and repre-
sentatives of the old Russian govern
ment. Jaures was strong opponent
of the entente between the French Re-
public and Russian absolutism.
