two men coming thru the window
and that they we're taking his little
son" said Police Lieutenant Godfrey
to-day, who examined the manufactu-
rer after he had been arrested. "He
said he dreamed he reached under
his pillow to get his revolver and
that he was suddenly awakened by
the noise of a shot. He found the
revolver in his hand and it was
smoking.
! IAN convinced this man is tell
ing the truth for this reason: The
bullet that killed his wife went thru
the pillow before it lodged in her
head, behind the left ear. Sapienza
slept on the left side of the bed and
his wife on the right :.
Prosecutor Harrison, who said
neighbors corroborated Sapeinza's
statement that he and his wife had
always been on the best terms, de-
clared he believed the man was tell

CONF R0MISE OR
FIGHT TO FINISH
FACING TREATY
Senator Hitchcock Issues
Statement Reiterating Belief
Ratification Yet Would
Be Accomplished.

Washington, Nov. 22.-The peace
treaty controversy apparently en-
tered upon a week of waiting while
sentiment crystallizes for a COM
promise or, for finish fight in the
1920 political campaign.
Most of the few senators who re-
NAMED here after the closing of the
session, left for home during the
day and there was no indication at
the White House that the president
had changed his decision to let
treaty issues stand where they are
until he sends his message to the
new session of congress week
from Monday.
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska,
the administration leader in the
treaty fight, issued a statement be-
fore starting home, reiterating his
belief that ratification yet would be
accomplished. He said. however,
that reservations were "inevitable." :"
The stand in favor of carrying the
reservation fight into the campaign
outlined in statement by Repub-
lican Leader Lodge was declared by
Mr.. Hitchcock to have been actu-
ated more by politics than by pa
triotism.
The only word from the White
House during the day was a state
ment by Secretary Tumulty, that
the president was in thorough ac-
cord with Senator Hitchcock's
management of the fight for ratif-
cation and was taking no part in
the choice of democratic senate
leader to succeed the late Senator
Martin. The statement was di-
rected against published reports that
Senator Underwood of Alabama,
would have Mr.. Wilson's backing
for the leadership.
In the coming week many sen-
ators on both sides are expected to
feel out sentiment in their home
states,

Legal Door Closed
Through Which Cole
Might Escape Chair

Lincoln, Nov 22.(-Special.)-
The supreme court has refused re-
hearing in the application of Anson
B. Cole sentenced to electrocution
with Grammer for the hurder of
Mrs. Lulu Vogt in Howard county.
The court in denying the appli-
cation holds that when defendant
is convicted and sentenced in a
court of competent jurisdiction,
habeas corpus proceedings are not
available for correction of error in
proceedings. All presumptions are
in favor of jurisdiction of the court,
Applicant for this writ has not
offered sufficient facts from the rec
ord of his conviction to enable the
court to determine whether the
trial court was without jurisdic-
ton" it is held.
This will mean that both Cole
and Grammer will have to go to the
electric chair January 9 unless per-
haps an appeal should be taken to
a still higher court.
