U. S. Army at Coblenz
Leader of Revolt Plot Gets 60
DAYS in Cell and Others
Is DAYS Each

COBLENZ, April IL (By The Asso-
cated Press). -Frederick Schwarzkopf,
of Berlin, who admitted to the Ameri-

part in the Spartacide uprisings in
Berlin, was sentenced yesterday to
sixty days solitary confinement in the
Inferior Provost Marshal Court in Co.
blenz for planning and agitating a
movement against the American army
of occupation.
Twelve other Germans, arrested sew
eral weeks ago on charges of partici-
pating in the movement in which it was
planned to seize the munitions in the
American area and overthrow the Ger
man officials, were sentenced to fiji
teen days each.
Schwarzkopf was the leader of the
movement, and confessed he came to
Coblenz to bring about an uprising.

Uncle Sam Ready
To Care for Men
Disabled in War

All men who have been disabled 10
per cent and can trace their disability
TO military or naval service are en-
titled to free medical attention and
compensation commensurate with their
disability. This announcement has
been made by the Bureau Of War Risks.
II. lieu Of the fact that many men now
discharged have seemed ignorant Of
this opportunity.
To April the Bureau Of War Risk
Insurance has made more than 1905
awards Of compensation TO men dis
abled in the war. These awards carry
with them each month payments
which amount TO s712,2s912. Compen-
shtion awards approved by the bureau
to date total r1orc than $4,000, 900
Medical authorities estimate that
more than $4,000 men have been dis.
charged from service with tubercular
trouble. Less than 5000 men have
availed themselves Of the free treat
mcnt. Some of these cases resulted
from Influenza, pneumonia and causes
incident to trench life; but many, the
physicians believe, were inciplent when
the men were accepted, not sufficiently
developed, however, to appear in the
first physical examination.
Under the Interpretation Of the war
risk insurance act any man accepted
and any disability which may have be
come apparent is assumed to be due
to causes sustained in duty More than
100000 was appropriated in the last
Congress for treatment Of disabled
men under direction of the Bureau of
War Risk Insurance. Twenty one hos
pitfalls already have been established to
care for these men, and skilled medical
treatment is provided. Those who need
immediate attention should apply for
it to the United States Public Health
officer in their district. Those whose
cases do not demand immediate atten-
ton should make application for
monthly compensation and medical at
tention to the Bureau of War Risk In

Would 1t Satisfy?

The "Kokumin Shimbun," another
influential newspaper, declares edi-
torlally that it doubts very much
whether the government programme
for the revision of the election laws
by lowering the tax qualification
from 10 yen to yen, and adopting
smaller electoral districts, would
satisfy the people. 1t thinks that
the revision of the election laws
should be much more thoroughgoing
to meet the demands of the times.
"The Far East" published in
Japan, but in English) has this to
say:
The movement for universal suffrage
is gaining in power and popularity day
by day. 1t was at first little mora
than students affair; but it has now
assumed serious aspect, and the work.

ton is not only sweeping over the coun-
try, but is making its influence felt
within the House of Representatives
Two parties in opposition have drafted
bills on the principle of limited fran
chise, and when these were introduced
there was some dissension in their
ranks. notable case was that of Mr..
Ozaki, of the Kensei-kai, who declared
that he advocated universal suffrage, al
though he submitted to the discipline of
his party Now clique is being formed
by those who are in favor Of the imme-
date introduction of universal suffrage.
The promoters are the six members of
the Kokumin-to. 1t is said that thew
intend to bring in a separate bill and
are trying to rally as many supporters
as possible. If advocates of universal
suffrage could see their way to introduce
their own bill, the House would really
be flooded with franchise bills; the op-
position leaders seem now to be having
a hard time trying to bring all their
members into line on this measure"

The Small Town
Market

NOBODY has ever questioned the
magnitude of the small town
market-that is, not since the census
bureau has been making reports,
anyhow, declares "Judicious Adver-
tising," which goes on to say that
it's quite possible to juggle figures
generally in any direction; but it's
impossible to twist these census
statistics
I. In the United States SO per cent of
the people live in towns whose popula-
ton is less than $4,000.
2. In the United States 10 per cent of
the people live in twentyone states.
3. In the twenty-one states that in
terest advertisers, 633 per cent Of the
people live in towns whose population
is less than $4,000
In the general market and in the
selected market, the rural population is
the dominant factor. The standard of
living is possibly higher than that of
the city; the consumer is more keenly
responsive to advertising; the merchant
is a wholesome sort of person who still
believes in stocking what his customers
want. Merchandising is simple prob
lem Of selling branded products over the
counter.

out any apparent reason at all. He
would address them with extraordi-
nary rudeness. He spoke on these oc-
casions in a peculiar voice, which ap-
peared to be choked with suppressed
rage, and his manner became very
markedly threatening and extremely
insulting, the whole thing being an en-
tire change from Colonel Rutherford
as one ordinarily knew him. Witness
thought he suffered from some mental
warp. After these outbursts he re-
turned almost at once to his normal
manner, and never referred to them
afterward. Witness added 4 have
never met anything of the kind in other
men. have served under twenty or
more commanding officers and have
been reprimanded on many occasions
by angry officers, and have never met
any want Of control in an officer which
corresponded in any way to this type
of lack of control which was shown by
Colonel Rutherford
"Reaxamined by Mr.. Rigby Swift, DR..
Sandilands said that irritability was
not an appropriate word to describe
the condition of Colonel Rutherford.
1t was common for people to feel dizzy
at height, but the desire to throw
ones self down was not inherent in
perfectly normal people.
evidence was given Of Some of
Colonel Rutherford's experiences under
shellfire. On one occasion shell
burst close to him and half buried
him; on another he was wounded by a
shell fragment in the arm and his
companion was killed by the same she'll.
One witness said the colonel seemed to
have no personal regard for danger at
all. Lieutenant Colonel J. Macmillan,
D. S. O., who succeeded Colonel Ruther-
ford in command of the 9th London
Field Ambulance, said he could give
nine or ten cases where Colonel Ruth
erford had interfered with commanding
officers Of other units where he had no
business to do SO. 1t was something
more than bad temper.

CURIOUS case has been
developed in London Of a
man who dreamed of COM

hitting murder and after
ward murdered the man he had
dreamed Of killing. The case was
that Of Lieutenant Colonel Norman
Cecil Rutherford, D. S. O., r. A.
M. c., who killed Major Miles
Charles Cariston Seton, Of the Aus
tralian Medical Corps, cousin Of Sir
Malcolm Seton, of Clarendon Road,
Holland Park, w.
Before the coroner and in the
police court the case promised to
develop into one of the familiar
triangle" sensations, sensational
only because of the comparative
social prominence Of the parties con-
cerned. Such evidence as was given
pointed to strained relations be-
tween Colonel Rutherford and his
wife, while there was friendship and
possibly intimacy between Mrs.
Rutherford and Major Seton.
Colonel Rutherford went to trial
in the Old Bailey, with the ground
work for such case we'll prepared,
but Immediately medical evidence
was called to show that Colonel
Rutherford was of unsound mind
and DR.. Hyslop, until recently Sc
nior physician at Bethlehem Hos
pital and a specialist in mental
diseases, dropped bombshell
among the fashionable audience in
the courtroom when he told Of Col
onel Rutherford's dream Of killing
Major Seton. DIR. Hyslop said:
"From a psychological standpoint
it is Of extreme interest to me to
find that in December he Colonel
Rutherford) had an extremely vivid
dream in France in which he went
through the full horror Of having
killed Major Seton, and that he
Weakened in a condition Of terror.
He viewed the whole dream with
horror and put it away from him.
Subsequently the idea would recur
from time to time, until it assumed
in his mind the form Of a definite
prohibition"
The medical evidence in the case,
as reported in "'The London Morn
ing Post" is as follows:
"Dr. J. E. Sandilands, Medical Officer
Of Health for Kingston and formerly
captain in the Royal Army Medical
Corps, who served under Colonel
Rutherford for considerable time on
the Continent, said prisoners had fire.
quent attacks of dermatitis and suf-
fered a good deal from loss Of sleep.
He often did not get to sleep till
dawn. Witness said soldiers in France
who suffered from nervous breakdown
also suffered from insomnia. That was
a very remarkable thing about those
cases. Replying to the judge, he said
insomnia would aggravate any ten
dency there might be to nervous break
down.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-05-11

the crime there was in Colonel Ruther-
ford an extraordinary tranquility and
absence Of emotion. There was an
extraordinary condition, and there was
no attempt to cover up the traces.
There was no attempt to escape. There
was absolute frankness and there was
evidence that all sense of fury had
departed, SO much so that those who
came in contact with him treated him
as child to be trusted, both with re-
gard to conduct and with regard to his
word.
AFTER questioning the witness about
the two messages written by Colonel
Rutherford to his wife after the death
of Major Seton, Mr.. Humphreys asked:
Did he give any explanation why he
shot Major Seton? DR.. Hyslop re-
piled, Yes and then speaking with de-
liberation and evident emotion, he con-
tinued:
II asked Colonel Rutherford why he
did this. What had Major Seton done
to him that would justify his taking
his life. He replied: Major Seton
has had an evil influence over my
children l asked him in what way was
this evidenced, and he replied: when
in France l heard that they we're
quarrelling among themselves 1
said: DO you consider that sufficient
to take this mans life? He rephed
I did I asked him: Can you give
me specific instance of any way in
which your children have been affected
by Major Seton?' He said: Yes; on
one occasion one of my boys Chat Is,
Seton's godson) spoke Of big game
shooting in South Africa l said:
Was that suficient?' He said: Yes
l then asked him point blank: Have
you anything to say against Mrs.
Rutherford? He said: NO, nothing.
said: Have you had any doubt as
to the relationship between her and
Major Seton? and he said: NO, have
always had perfect faith in my wife
Il then asked him, continued the
witness, why did you fire so many
shots at Major Seton?' He replied:
Because l disliked to see anything
wounded l asked him many, times
IT he had modified his opinions since
as to the justification on such grounds
for taking Major Seton's life. His in.
variable reply was: 4 have not rodi-
fed my opinion, and I would do the
same again. That was until this morn.
ing, added the witness. when l ex-
amined Colonel Rutherford, and he told
mo the whole affair was very extraor-
binary to him and he could not realize
that he was the person concerned. He
could not doubt the evidence which
had been put forward and reiterated
but he could not offer any explanation
as to the condition he had been in.
