claim on the fact that the rabbits

half the size of the hare. while the

"Rabbits," Says Scientist.
The case was formally placed be-

American embassy in Paris was asked
to join in the case.
The French attorney general was
invited to decide the case and even
to take few of the "hares'' home
and eat them. He declined to do this,
and after lengthy review of the
case finally decided that the law was
never intended to apply to jack
rabbits. frozen or alive, and that the
technical application might be waived.
The case of the jackrabbits is held
up by DR.. r. S. McElwee, director of
the bureau of foreign and domestic

of knowledge of laws of foreign LANDS
by many American shippers. Much
time was wasted and money
spent in getting the "hareS' finally

ROMANCE CLUE
IN TRIPLE CRIME
Ownership of Revolver Con-
sidered Only Missing
Link by Police.

A romance which had its origin in
Constantinople, where TheologoS
Apostolus koukos helped Jean Odis-
secs save his sister. Katina Odisseos.
from abduction by Turkish officers. is
believed to have been responsible for
the triple tragedy enacted in a 9th
street rooming house Sunday night.
where the young woman was found
slain and her brother and sutton NOR
tally wounded
Some light has been thrown on the
tragedy by James Pappas. Greek resi-
dent of Wilmington, N. c.. who knew
the three victims and Wimestenes
Odisseos, brother of Jean and Katina.
After the flight of the trio from Con-
stantinople. he told the Wilmington
police. koukos fell desperately in
love with the young woman and spent
much time in her company.
Never Gave I'd Hope.
They young woman's sutton never
gave up hope of making katina his
bride. it is believed by persons inter
ested in the investig CATION, and last
week before leaving Norfolk and 60
irg to North Carolina he remarked
that he proba bly, would be married
when he returned
What happened when he met Katina
anu Hei prolner can only be cOnJec-
tured. koukoS had drawn more than
$1,000 from bank and had it in his
possession, and detectives are not sat
sfied whether the money was part of
the motive for the crime or if it re-
suited from long feeling of hatred
Jean had shown for Koukos
one suggestion of the motive is
that koukos probably had changed
MS mind about marrying the girl and
tRat Jean, anticipating an effort to
desert her and take his money with
him. attacked him with the Ratchet
and then shot him.
Revolver Ownership Clue.
Ownership of the revolver used in
the tragedy is considered by the DO
nee to be the only missing link in
the chain of evidence tending to fix
the crime upon Jean Odisseos In
spector Grant. chief of detectives, this
morning stated that Detective Edward
Kelly is in Greenville N c., trying to
establish ownership of the pistol.
1t was reported from Greenviile
that police there have started an in

woman addressed postal card only

DlmoStenes OdiSSeos, his uncle. and

LOCAL c. 0. P. PLANNING
OLD-T|ME CAMP IGN
Henry M. Camp Is Working on a
PROGRAM to Intensity Zeal
for the Ticket Here.

a1guration of an "old fashioned"
campaign in Washington for the re-
publican ticket is being planned by
Henry NJ. camp, who is in charge of
republican club activities. with a dis
tinct view to intensifying and focus
ing the zeal of the residents of Wash
ington for suffrage in the National
Capital.
Mr. Camp is working on a program
which will make this District the
most active campaign center in the
country. with big mass meetings apd
rallies of the old time sort. with curb
stone speaking. with MONDAY rallies
at the government workshops, with
torchlight parades and plenty of fife
and drum at all the gatherings. Red
fire, bands. stump speaking, spell
binding" transparencies and banners
strung across the street are to be in
dulged in extensively.
1t is expected by Mr.. Camp and the
other republican leaders that this
will not only operate to make the
government employees in Washington
eager to go back to the home states
to vote, but that it will make all the
residents of Washington feel that as
citizens they should have an active
part in national politics. 1t is the
thought of the republican leaders in
Washington that such an old-fash-
ioneG. campaign will do more than
anything else to advance the cause OF
national representation here.
Seeking Data From States.
Mr.. Camp. who is virtually the re-
publican campaign manager in Wash
ington, today mailed to the secretaries
of al the states and to the repub-
lican state chairmen letters asking
for copies of the state election laws,
dates of registration and re-regiStra-
ton and all information of that sort
that would be of interest to state
voters temporarily resident in the Ma
tional Capital
mmediately on getting this infor-
nation, Mr.. Camp will have the eS-
sential facts briefed, by states, and
will have printed little booklet
which will give at a glance all such
information in which thousands of
government employees are interested.
These election guide books will be
distributed free from the Harding and
dge clubs which are now being
organized in all parts CT the city.
The finances in support of the re-
publ can campaign in Washington are
in excellent shape, according to Will
liam T. Galliher, chairman of the state
central committee and of the ways
and means committee for the District.
Mr.. ialliher had a conference with his
finance committee yesterday, which
was attended by a representative from
the national ways and means com
mittee, in which the work was checked
up, and plans approved so that Mr..
Galliher notified Edward F. Colladay,
the national committeeman, today
that unusually good progress is being
made.

800 OLDER CLERKS.
ELIGIBLE TO RETIRE,
STAY IN us. SERVICE
No Application Definitely
Turned Down Says Head of
Civil Service Body.

Five hundred superannuates have
been certified for retention in gov
eminent service by the Civil Service
Commission. President Martin A. Nor
rison of the commission announced
today
! No doubtful cases have been finally
passed upon. so no recommendation
sent the commission has as yet been
definitely turned down." President
Morrison added.
Announcement of these facts came
as great relief to scores of super
annuates throughout the government
service. who have been waiting in
anxiety to know what their fate
would be as to retention in the serv-
ice.
There has been no adverse action
taken at all by the commission to
this time" Mr.. Morrison said eX-
planning that all doubtful cases were
being carefully considered and that
TO date not a single man has been
refused retention. That many ulti-
mately will be refused retention, on
the facts presented. is admitted.
Many Seek Retention.
Announcement of the number of re-
tentions already approved by the Civ
il Service Commission showed the
large number of such cases which
will occur under the retirement law.
Mr.. Morrison and the other commits
sioners have their desks piled with
the applications for retention.
According to the best estimates. at
least % per cent of the first super
annuates of the government will be
retained in the service. 1t generally
has been estimated that about 5000
employees throughout the United
States are eligible for retirement at
this time. From the figure of 500 re-
tentions already approved. it is be-
Heved to be a conservative estimate
that ultimately between 20 and 25 per
cent of the total will be retained.
Denies Reported Refusal.
Mr.. Morrison fatty denied today a
statement made by a government en-
pioye, in which the latter asserted
its approval and certification for re-
tention to employees seventy years old,
classified as mechanics, in the bureau
of engraving and printing and the
government printing office.
The fact that we have approved
the retention of 500 superannuates to
date, that we will approve more, that
no doubtful cases have been passed
upon finally. and, therefore that no
adverse action been taken yet at all,
disproves such a statement" declared
Mr.. Morrison.
The Civil Service Commission is
judging each case on it's own merits.
We have no authority to decide until
a recommendation is sent us by a de-
partment head. Then our medical ex-
aminers go over the claim and decide
if the employe concerned is capable
of continuing the work.
