shooting OF Elmer C. Drewes. the Dart
mouth College senior. for the murder OF
whom William p. Brines has been named
In a warrant.
Major Wynn. ex-chief of detectives.
declared to-day that although no move
has been advanced why Bfines. a Uni
versity of Pennsylvania student, should
have killed his chum and friend. direct
evidence points TO him as the murderer.
Police and detectives are covering many
possible places where Brines Is believed
to appear.
Mrs. Annie f. Brines, the students
mother. Is now in hospital In the
southern part of the city In state of
nervous collapse. Detectives guard the
approach of her private room and allow
no one but relatives and hospital attend
ants to see her. Even the detectives
themselves have not tried to talk to her.

Mrs. Brines went TO the hospital
Thursday. after she had been at the
home of her brother. Mr.. Virgins Tues
day and Wednesday Members of the
family there declare both she and her
son, who was with her until Wednesday
afternoon, were then in highly nervous
state, refused to eat and said they were
i'll. 1t is known, however, that Mrs.
Brines had engaged her hospital room
some days before the name Of her son
was mentioned in the case.
Detective Beshaw said the disinclina-
ton of the dead boys family to believe
Brines could have been connected with
Drewes' death prevented the arrest of
Brines several days ago. Belshaw de-
clared that had the family told him on
Monday night facts later disclosed he
could have arrested Brines that night.
Mrs. Brines. 1t was said. had visited the
Drewes home on Sunday afternoon to

MRS. KENYON GETS
TEN YEARS, SWOONS
Woman Who Killed DR.. Tet-
low Loses Composure Shown
i'm Trial.

Special Despatch to THE NHw York HERALD.
NORWICH, Conn, Oct. 22.-Mrs. Mabel
Kenyon of Stonington. convicted earlier
In the day OF manslaughter in the kill.
ing OF DR.. Herbert Tetlow of Pawtucket
on June II. was sentenced this afternoon
to serve from ten to fifteen years in
prison. Mrs. Kenyon had heard the ver-
dict OF the jury without emotion. but
when Judge Hinman pronounced SEN
tence upon her she swooned and was
carried from the court room by a friend
and detective. She was taken at once
to the New London jail. and will later
be transferred to the State prison In
Wethersfield. Her counsel announced
the case would not be appealed
Judge Human addressed the jury for
an hour early this morning The jury
was out an hour and a half and after
the verdict had been handed down Mrs.
Kenyon and her husband and two or
three friends retired to an anteroom
to await the sentence. During this time
Mrs. Kenyon retained her composure. but
her husband, who had been so unnerved
that he was not able 10 come into the
court room during the morning, became
20 hysterical a deputy sheriff had TO
restrain him.
DIR. Tetlow and Mrs Kenyon had
known each other for many years, and,
according to the evidence In the trial,
they had been intimate. Mrs. Kenyon
has been married three times the last
time thirteen years ago. BY this marriage
she had three children. the third about
year ago. The State offered testi-
many TO show that she often had re-
ferred to this child as "Herbert's and
mine" On June IL DR.. Tetlow was shot
while in his home. and Mrs. Kenyon
turned over to the police a revolver
which had been fired four times. She
told them she had been In the house at
the time OF the shooting In the trial
che defence claimed that DIR. Tetlow
shot himself because he was In love
with Mrs. Kenyon, but medical testi-
mony descriptive OF the four wounds In
the physician's head tended 20 show they
could not have been self-infiicted.
In n plea to the court for leniency
Attorney Rathbun, counsel for Mrs.
Kenyon. declared that in his opinion Mrs.
Kenyon had not gone to Or. fellows
house to kill either the doctor or her
self but that she had carried the gun
there to frighten him. An unusual fea4
ture OF the case was that Coroner Frank
lin III. Brown. who conducted the inquest
and questioned Mrs. Kenyon az the time
OF her arrest, died recently and his off,
cial statement was not available to the
state.

Higher money rates, the serious

Higher money rates, the serious
interruption Of transportation and the
widespread reports of labor shortage
were the chief bear arguments.
Liberty bond selling continued
heavily and forced new declines.
Cotton and grain were both weak
and the exception Of the former was
spot cotton.
Fractional changes marked the
opening Of the stock market today
Opening prices were: Reading,
ssh, up 4; Pan-American Petro-
! leum, 94A. up Il; Retail Stores,
1875, off Il; Cuban American Sugar,
59A. off Is; U. S. Rubber, 941a, up

baker, 691a, unchanged General Mo-
tors, 2715, up e; Southern Pacific,
changed; Pan-American 3D." 94A
UP 4; Royal Dutch. 114&, off Is;
Baldwin. 1873, unchanged.
Liberty bonds, after sharp de-
cline yesterday, opened off from two
to six points. The heaviest decline
was in second AIS, which were
quoted at $3.50
After hesitating opening, the
stock market sold off during the first
fort:-five minutes. The traders con-
strued Governor Hardins's statement
of the attitude Of the federal re-
serve board in regard to the coun-
try's credit situation as bearish and
proceeded TO sell. Most Of the steels,
oils and motor stocks were driven
down from one to three points from
the opening.
The market continued to sag dur
ing the early afternoon in spite Of
brief rallies. Steel common went to
91%. from which it rallied to 921s.
Studebaker sold down from 691a to
65% and rallied to 66A. PanAmeri
can Petroleum sold from 1924 down
to 95M and then went up to 81. Bald
win was weak and after selling down
to 100 !. from 1855 rallied to 1107s.
The market was almost purely pro-
fessional and was influenced by the
announcement of higher banking
rates. There was slight improve
ment on an announcement made by
ticker companies that there was a
disposition in Washington to grant
railroads higher rates at once. Sugar
stocks generally showed resistance
to pressure on the statement made in
trade circles that sugar companies
will establish record earnings for
the current year.
Almost the entire list made new
lows on the present decline during
the afternoon. U. S. Steel common
got down to 81, which is IL below
the low Of February Baldwin got
under 100, while American Wooden
sold at 102. The February low of
American Wooden was lis. Pan
American Petroleum, by drop Of
more than six points eliminated
large speculative holdings.
The market closed lower.
The total sales of the day were

Daily Stock Letter.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
NEW YORK, May 19.-The New
York Evening Suns financial review
today said:
Tcdays stock market was frankly
! weak, net losses ranging from 2 to 6
points Or more. At the beginning there
was nothing in the trading to suggest
the throwing over Of stocks in volume,
but as the session progressed stop loss
orders were uncovered in large num-
bers, which, Of course, accelerated the
decline. PeSSimiStic talk about the
credit situation for a week or more
past has brought stops into the mar
ket and the more or less continuous
yielding of the list in that period has
revealed them. The surface nantes
tations resulting influenced nervous
persons to sacrifice holdings, the COM
bined effect being highly depressing.
Wall street sentiment, in fact, has
shown Improvement of late and there
panic talk should be INDUCED in when
it is mainly the technical position
within the stock market itself that,
for the moment has brought about the
present reaction.
Losses were materially extended III
the later dealings. Some of the high
er priced shares were down as much
as eight Or ten points, Mexican Pc
troleum, for example, selling below
ITO. The rails 'withstood pressure
better than the industrials, although
recessions in that quarter were one to
three points or so. Steel common sold
below 81 and the preferred below 1906
the lowest price for the latter in sew.
eral years. Very little support was
in evidence. Liberty bones and Vic
tory notes ended the day with declines
of quarter to half a point.
