TOfREE GIRL
|NDEATHPL0T
Pretty Actress Exonerated in
Confession by One OF
.. Peirce's Slayers.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. Alt is
expected Marie Phillips will receive
immunity from the State in con-
nectiou with the murder OF Henry
T. Peirce. Captain Souder and De-
tective William Belshaw, head OF
the murder squad and solver of TIE
mystery, said the girl had net BAL
gained for freedom, but had agreed
TO tell the truth without any promise
OF protection.
CLEARED ~ CONFESSION.
Peter d. Treadways confession IN
very definite language, frees Marie
from any blame in the case, either
before the attempted robbery. which
Treadway says resulted in Peirce's
death, or at the time OF the crime.
The district attorneys office init
mates that in the face OF TreadwaN
confession. as TO the girl. which only
q confirms the prior statement made by
Joseph \. Moss. II would be ncN' to
impossible to convict her OF murder
IN any degree.
Marie was taken 10 the district at
torney's office yesterday afternoon
and remained for long interview
during which she went over her con-
fession, made after she had become
reconciled with her sailor husband
Ross A. Rogers, so that the district
attorneys star would understand IL
thoroughly in all its detail.
Treadway's written confession puts
all the blame for the actual killing
70
, still! a fugitive. Treadway says rob
berry was the only motive. and that
hc had not expected things to turn
out as bad as they did. Toward tho
end OF the confession he named Eloss
and Elliott and himself in connection
with the robbery.
SEEKS TO FREE MOSS.
Marie did not know that Moss.
Elliott and we're soinG TO rob
Peirce until she saw them coming in
behind her" are the words which ap.
uarently fix part OF the bla ne on
Moss. However, the context seems 10
show that Treadway intended TO eN-
onerstc Moss OF all blame, as else
where in the confession he recountei
how Elliott had suggested when Moss
was not with them that eve take
him IPeircc) for what he has
Treadway's disclaimer Of partici-
nation In the actual killing of Peirce
"a nd his declaration that Moss was abb
sent when the victim died. will not
avail either of them under the law
II il can be demonstrated that all
three were in a plot to rob Peirce.
Under the statute law OF Pennsyl-
vania conspiracy to rob is felony,
and il is a principle Of law widely
recognized that murder incidental to
Il felony is murder in the hrst de-
Srec.
Though the detectives believe Moss
,yas merely a poor boob" he proba-
bly, will be tried for murder in the
first degree

The Washington Times will provide
the names OF needy families and the
Good Fellows will do the rest. With
the names and addresses of the fam
lilies. the Good Fellow can make per
sonal visits. determine the needs and
decide how he will meet them.
The Washington Times will accept
no money or other contributors. 1t
wants the Good Fellows 10 get the
joyous thrill of planning Christmas
for the family or families buying the
Christmas gifts and personally dis
tributing Them on Christmas morn
ing. The Washington Times has made
no provision for distributing the gifts
because such an arrangement w"ulh
rob the Good Fellows OF the create 81
pleasure incident to the plan--that Of
hearing the laughter and shouts Of
joy of tho children in the families
adopted for the day.
NAMES ARE GROUPED.
Good Fellows who send in their
names TO The Washington Times will
be promptly furnished with the
names and addresses Of as many per-
sons as they wish to take care of on
Christmas morning. The names Of
the needy families have been grouped
according toIhe sections of tho city
northwest, northeast. southwest, and
southeast. Each man or woman in
u endinG 10 become Good Fellow
should signify the section in which
he prefers TO take care OF a family.
II is tho business Of the Good Eel

Washington goes without some cheer
or happiness on Christmas Day--some-

titled to them 365 days year.
SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
There must be something differ
ent for Christmas, and the Good Eel

different. II is within the ranSe OF
probability that the Good Fellow Will
ind himself working in the same fam
ily where an organized charity asso-
citation is working, and this may re-
suit in what IL called "duplication.
There is n doctrine in law that it is
better that ninety-nine guilty men es-
cape rather than that one innocent
person should be punished. And. by
tho same token, it is better that there
be duplication" in ninety-nire tami-
lies rather than that one family go
without Christmas cheer. That is the
way the Good Fellow looks at the
matter, and so long as il suits him 4

When the Interstate Commerce
commission wrote its decision In the
rate case recently, II thereby signed o
treaty OF peace with the railroads. The
long war against their prosperity, which
Degan almost with the enactment Of the
hrst Interstate commerce act in 1887
mas at last been ended by an enlight-
ened policy or regulation.
"lnsteadg. Of rates being adjusted
from time too time at the whim Of an
Interstate Commerce Commission, with
its constantly changing personnel, the
railroads Of the country are now guar
anteed by law minimum return, upor

This new order of things in rail-
way affairs offers the country's carriers
an opportunity. long denied, to put
themselves in first class physical con
dition, and must be regarded as givins
railroad security holders extreme opti
mism regarding the outlook.
From the very beginning Of regula
tion in this country the attitude of tn,
controlling authorities was one of short
sighted restriction. The carriers wer,
grudgingly granted rate increases from
time to time, but these were never larg,

Future Is Assured

Continuing, the circular says In part !:
Now all this has been changed. The
new policy, as evidenced by the commits
sion's decision, takes account nof only
Of the needs of today. but of the future
as well. Ncver hereafter will It be pos :
sible for the railroads to 'starve' as they
have in the past, unless it be because Of
inefficient management. Instead Of being
in position comparable to that of a
factory doing poorly in spite of an enor-
nous demand for its product because II
could not command decent price, the
railroads are assured of good return
on the capital invested. More. they are
given an opportunity to make large
profits II only they operate efficiently
enough. And great campaign is under
way to make sure that they do operate
efficiently.
