Many prominent actors and singers

the affair will surpass anything Of the
kind ever given in this country.
I'VE plan to make Leviathan Post
centre for radiating good thoughts and
good, sound American citizenship" said
Mr.. Froggatt yesterday. such centres
are needed in these days Of unrest and
they can best be carried on by men who
have already shown their devotion to
their country. During the war the
Levlathan, formerly the German liner
vaterland. made ten trips across the At
lantic, carrying 110.591 American SOL
diers to France.
"I believe that the American people.
and especially the people Of New York,
will be glad to help the men OF the
Leviathan in their efforts to establish
permanent headquarters. which shall
also be home Of the highest Ameri-
Canism." "

KROONLAND'S 1888
GET TYPHUS SCARE
Suspicious Case ProUes to Be
Measles.

Passengers on the Red Star liner
Kroonland. which docked shortly before
o'clock last night, had a narrow es-
cape from detention on board all night
and possibly much longer.
From IL o'clock until half-past
in the afternoon the 1.IS3 passengers
waited apprehensively on board Off
Quarantine while doctors of the Public
Health Service carefully examined a
third class passenger who had a case
OF which Dr. w. s. Irwin. ships sur
geon, had diagnosed as measles. The
Quarantine doctors thought II was ty-
phus, disease which public health au-
thoritles are particularly anxious to
keep away from New York.
After carefully examining the patient
the doctors went back to their labora-
tory ashore to make blood tests. These
finally revealed that DR.. Irwin was
right so the yellow flag was hauled
down and the Kroonland proceeded UP
the bay. There were two other cases OF
measles on board. but not so serious or
suspicious In nature.
After spending a year in child welfare
work in Poland. four young American
girls OF Polish ancestry returned to this
side. They were Miss Stanislawa Lyca-
l,owski OF Pittsburg? Miss Frances Sobe-
zynska OF Detroit, Miss Estelle Mucha
of Kansas City and Miss Genevieve
Winckiewic of Detroit They said that
there Is great need for proper food for
Polish children. and were much con-
cerned at the Bolshevik progress In Po-
land.

friends who have visited her In the cell
where she is awaiting a preliminary
trial on charge of numbering her hus-
band, a wealthy dealer in Mexican ana

Legal advisors point out that the wo-
mans poems all show a marked under
current of neurasthenic savagery which
might have had some influence In the
circumstances surrounding the death OF
her first husband, for whom she pro-
.fessed the greatest affection but who the
police are inclined to believe also was
victim OF the woman's irresponsible
rage.
Scores OF literary associates who at
tended the gatherings at her home when
as Hera Mirtel she recited poems OF
vengeance who have been questioned by
detectives all unite in the belief that the
woman hypnotized herself through In
creasing nervous tension to the pitch
where crime lost Its meaning This, they
say. was supplanted by recent spiritual
seances and the study OF Hindu magic.
While reconstructing the crime en-
tirely, even to thrusting n mock corpse
into the trunk, in the room where her
husband was shot, Hera Mirtels unbal-
anced mentality is shown in a signed
declaration she issued to the press last
night, In which she declares she is in

NJ. Roberts, head OF the Partisan Bar
who has been appointed to defend the
woman, has gained national prominence
for his successful defences of women
charged with crimes Of the most serious
nature. The public Is shocked by the
sinister revelations now being made. and
despite the usual tendency to extend
mercy to women, the demand Is apparent
that she pay the extreme penalty rather
than that consideration should be given
to the impulses which are thought to
have directed her actions

plea Saturday night for the woman to

blindly early yesterday so that he at

him out Of the way. according TO the
police. But into the path OF the bullets
stepped the girl herself, and three shots
intended for the brother lodged in the
body OF the woman they both loved
one in her stomach. one in the left side
and one under the right arm.
In the st. Lawrence Hospital where
the woman was taken, her condition last
night was said to be critical. Rudolph
was arrested on a double charge of
felonious assault and violating the Sui

brother ordered him out.

Rudolph returned about / o'clock Sun

foreign make and levelled It at his
brother.
"Tve got you now" he is reported as
saying, as he pulled the trigger three
times. But the hammer did not strike.

pulled three more times. This time the
revolver worked, three bullets striking
her. Three more chambers were emptied
at his brother, the police say, but the
shots missed their mark, and as Rudolph
turned to flee they say he told his
brother, If you follow me you'll get
yours"
Meanwhile Sergeant Thomas Martin

apartment had been awakened by the
shots. He rushed down stairs in his

CANOEISTS, CAUGHT
IN STORM, ARE SAFE

die in Raritan Bay.

Fifteen members Of the Weequahic
Canoe and Athletic Club Of Newark
we're caught in the thunder storm Satur-
day afternoon while padding through
Raritan Bay on their arpual cruise to
Keansburg, y. J, The heavy wind ana
the high waves tossed their frail craft
about and blew them far out OF their
course Four OF the canoes finally were
blown up on the beach at various parts
Of the bay, where the padders had to
pass the night Three canoes reached
Keansburg several hours after their
scheduled time OF arrival. following a
hard battle with the wind and waves.
All the canoeists are strong swimmers
and expert In handling such water craft,
but they could not control the frail ves-
sells in such heavy weather Their
friends and relatives in Newark, unable
10 get any word from them. had given
all up for lost and had organized
searching parties, which left Newark
as soon as the storm abated on a search
for their bodies or the wrecks of the
canoes
Frederick Papsy commodore Of the
boat club, reached Keansburg with six
canoes early Sunday. He reported that
the storm was violent in the bay, and
that the fleet had become separated
soon after the first squall came up. In
spite of their exhaustion Papsy and
his companions insisted upon Joining the
search for the four other canoes. They
kept up their task until dawn without
success when utter WEAKNESS forced
them 10 rest.
The canoe containing Rudolph Brugee-
man and Richard Scott was met by the
searching party about o'clock yester-
day morning, padding slowly across
the bay. Scott and Bruggeman SAID that
they had been blown ny the high winds
and seas across the bay to the peach at
