KILLS WIFE AFTER
 FIERCE STRUGGLE
Husband Says She Resented Noise He Made Mailing Up Windows to
 Keep Out Burglars.

New York, July 14.-Mrs Emma Hoptinger, thirty-eight years old, was stabbed to death in her apartment at No. 235 East 1O3d Street early yester day morning. Her husband, Carl, of the same age, is locked up in the East 1O4th street station on a charge of homicide.
 Hopfinger was overpowered by James Ross a watChman, and others, who, hearing the screams of the Wo- men, broke down the door. Ross and Hopfinger were cut in the struggle that followed and Detectives Joseph Ryan and Thomas Enright, who re- sponded to telephone calls sent by neiyhbors, sent a call for an ambu lance.
 Dr. Frederick Kins, of Harlem hos pital, found Mrs. Hopfinger dead from numerous wounds inflicted with a bread knife.
 Hopfinger talked incoherently at the station, stating that night after night he. had locked and bolted the door of the apartment and driven nails into the woodwork of the win dows, being in constant fear of bur glars. Sunday morning, he said, hls wife objected to the noise, saying she wished to sleep. She finally got up and after skipping his face attempted to stab him with the bread knife, which he wrested from her, Hop- finger declared.

5O,OOO PEOP[E IN
 CHICAGO HEAR TALK
De Valera Given Housing ReCep-
 tion in Windy City

Chicago, July 14.-An audience of 5o,O0O persons, it was estimated, yesterday heard Ramon De Valera, president of the Irish republic" appeal for aid and recognition of Irish independence. It was an open air meeting, held at the Chicago National league baseball park, where all seats were taken up and nearly all available space occupied.
 MT. De Valera, when he arose to speak, was greeted by demonstra- ton of cheering that lasted 21 mn- utes A soldier in a Canadian uni form mounted the speakers stand and led the cheering.
 Kissing Is Stopped.
 The crowd was enthusiastic but some of the spectators indulged in hissing when the names of President Wilson, Premier Lloyd George of Great Britain and Sir Edward Carson, Irish unionist leader, were mentioned. Persons on the speakers platform, however, soon stopped those demon- strations.
 MT. De Valera expressed confidence that Americans sympathized with the Irish independence movement and hoped that tho American government would recognize the de jure' gov crnment of Ireland.
 Frank P. Walsh and Edward F. Dunne, members of tho delegation sent by Irish societies in America to present to the peace conference a petition for settlement of the Irish question, and Mayor William Hale Thompson, of Chicago, were other speakers.
 League of Nations Is Opposed.
 MT. Walsh referred to Premier Lloyd George as the trick mule of Great Britain" whose actions, he said, nobody could forecast.
 Resolutions that congress be urged to "recognize the Irish republic, as TOW established" and to esta blish trade relations with Ireland for the benefit of American commerce and labor, and strongly opposing the League of Nations were adopted with enthusiasm. The league, it was de- clared, would impair American sov- ereignty, would destroy the Monroe Doctrine and would guarantee "the world supremacy of the two remain ing despotic empires of the world Great Britain and Japan.'
 MT. De Valera opposed the league only on the ground that it would pre- vent the Irish from receiving outside assistance in obtaining freedom from Great Britain. He said that be- as stranger, could not presume to inter- fere where the grounds for opposing the league, as stated in the resolu. tions were concerned, for they were purely American grounds.
 r+se' Dc Valera Made An LII. ID.
 MT. De Valera said he might be asked why he came to America first. rather than to some other country It was not so much because of the large population of Irish blood or not even that the Americans are liberty- loving people, "but it is because we know that this nation is big enough to be able to stand up and follow it's own will irrespective of whether John Bull likes it or not"
 After attending religious services yesterday morning, MT. De Valera was escorted by friends to the De Pauw university, where the degree Of doctor of laws was conferred upon him. Today he planned to confer with local bankers concerning the proposal to issue Irish republic bonds
