Marie Tucci Accuses Dead
Relative of Trying to

Into am Improper Life
Special DispoteA to The Tribune

ATLANTIC CITY. March 1.-Two
frightened italian girls, one nine, the
other twenty, stood before inquisitors
to-day and sobbed broken tale ex-
planning the murder charge which con-
fronts the elder.
Marie Tucci, the elder, declared in
outbursts of alternate English and
italian, that her sister, Mrs. Angelina
Conte, had been killed in New York in
struggle which ensued when she tried
to force Marie to act improperly. The
nine-year-old child, Conjettina Conte,
is the daughter Of Mrs. Angelina Conte.
Late last night Marie walked into the
office of the Captain of Detectives
James M. Malseed and gave herself up.
Clinging to her hand was the fright
ened Conjettina. The little girl re-
fused to leave her side and remained
with her in Jail during the night.
Marie explained she was wanted for
the murder of her sister late Monday
night in Mrs. Contes apartment, SO
West Houston Street. Captain Of De-
tectives Malseed detained both girls
and wired to New York. To-day Louis
J. Commomeuosi, of the staff OF Deputy
Police Commissioner Lahey, questioned
the girls. He will take them back as
soon as requisition papers are granted
Marie, strfkingly pretty girl, said
that on Monday night her married Sis
ter ordered her to accompany man
friend she had introduced. Marie re-
fused. A bitter argument followed be-
tween the sisters. Then Mrs. Conte
said Marie, declared she would force
Conjettina to take Marie's place. Ma
ries mitigation prompted Mrs. Conte
to draw a revolver and to threaten tt
shoot her, she said.
The two struggled for possession Of
the revolver. 1t exploded in Mrs. Conte'.

Anthracite Miners Plea
For Wage Increase Heard
Sub Committee of Operators
and Men Begins Session at
Union I.eague Club

Mine workers yesterday began the
task of proving the rapid upward trend
of the cost Of living to support their
demands for 60 per cent increase in
wages in the anthracite coal fields.
Their arguments were offered at the
opening session of the wage conference
between subcommittee of operators
and miners at the Union League Club.
1t is expected that several weeks will
be consumed IN the discussions.
1t was agreed that little could be
done in the way of reaching a definite
decision until after the bituminous coal
commission, now in session at Wash
ington, hands down it's decision on the
wage demands of the soft coal miners.
Nobody here could offer guess as to
the time that might be consumed be-
fore such decision was reached.
Because of the possibility of sus-
pension Of operations in both coal fields
unless a decision is reached before
March 81, both miners and operators
are hopeful of an early decision by the
Washington commission. The present

I25 Face Trial
In Coal Inquiry
Special Dispatch to ras 1>4s.se


INDIANAPOLIS, March IL In
dictments charging 1875 coal operators
and miners with conspiracy under the
Lever act to limit the production Of
coal, and offenses against the United
States as defined in tho criminal code,
were returned in Judge A. r. Ander
sons Federal court here to-day by the
special grand jury which has been in
vestigating the coal industry for the
past three months.
The names of the men indicted will
not be disclosed until after their ar
rest, it was said. The indictments are
sweeping in character and con-
viction on the charges made would
entail fine as high as $4,000 and
imprisonment up to two years, or both.
Judge Anderson fixed bail at $4,000
and $4,000, and announced, that tLc
men would be arraigned May d.
It is understood that TO per cent
Of the persons indicted are coal oper-
ators and that these include some Of
the largest operators in America. All
will be forced to stand trial. Nearly
all the indictments are in the cases
of men operating in the central COM
petitive field, embracing Illinois, Indi-
ana, Ohio and western Pennsylvania.
Few if any retailers were indicted, it
was understood, and there is only a
small number of miners or mine off,
cials named.
Ii was understood also that the op-
orators charged with criminal con-
spiracy all come from the bituminous
coal fields, and mono from the anthracite
region. Although the heaviest coal
producing in the central field embraces
the four states mentioned above, the
bituminous field also includes a part
Of Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ala
bama, West Virginia and other states
in the middle section Of the country
The special grand jury called for the
! sole purpose of investigating the
ers has been in session forty nine
| days, the longest session in the his
tory of the Federal court in this state
The jury was convened December IT,
but was adjourned on several occasions
to give the officials in charge oppor-
tunity to obtain witnesses and to pre-
pare records.
The investigation has been In the
charge Of Dan w. Simms, of Lafayette
special assistant United States Dis
trict Attorney, appointed to enforce
| the injunction order of the court
against the officials of the United Mine
Workers Of America, and Of L. Ert
Slack, former United States District
Attorney, who was appointed special
| assistant district attorney to assist in
the case.
The full operative strength Of the
government will be used in bringing
the alleged conspirators to justice.
