First Democratic Attack.
The speech was the first Demo-
cratic political attack on the Pres

He declared that talk Of q third
term is "a scmnambulism. which
neglects the traditions of our faith

to make the United States q king
dom instead of a republic.
Humphreys stated he was proud
OF the record Of the President dur

out that Washington. Jefferson. LIN

against a third term.

Significance was given to the

MANSTRANGLED
And DOCTOR
STABBED
Brooklyn Rooming House
Scene of Mysterious
Double Murder.

New York. March 25.-Stabbed in
the neck by an unknown assailant
and lying beside the body of man
strangled to death, tho body of DR..
Simpson Campisi. a Williamsburg
physician, was discovered tonight in
a Brooklyn rooming house.
The police are baffied by the dou-
bic murder and declSred fe to be
the most mysterious casa they have
had to handle, In sxesrs
shortly before 8 o'clock this eye-
ming, Dr. Campisi was called from
his home by a man apparently in a
great hurry. The physician accom-
panied the man into a small room
in the rear of the first floor. A few
minutes later the man who accom-
panied the doctor was seen to run
away. ..E
Found by Police.
Policemen who had seen the doc
tor enter the house and had heard
a strange noise pushed open the
door of the room to see an uniden-
tilted man lying on the ped. and Dr.
Campisi, dead on the floor. with
slood still cours!ns .-a-a two knife
wounds, one in his mouth and the
other in his neck.
The Laan on the bed evidently had
been choked to death. He apparent
ly was an Italian. The name ap-
peariug on his coat was ]. Falcon.
The room was small, dingy
place The only other furniture, be-
sides the bed. was a small table.
A small window in the rear. the
only one. in the room, was broken.
.-.. Clues Are Sought.
In the room were found an old
dirk, an old razor and medicine
bottle, on which the name j. Vaiio
was written The latter and the
name on the coat of the strangied
man are the only clues the police
have.
nne theory on which the police
are working is that the doctor had
been entIcsd to the room for the
purpoes of robbery. In resisting
lne attack, he had 'strangled to
death the unidentified man, only
to be stabbed by the man who had
led him into the trap and then es-
capped. II this theory is correct, the
murderer lost his nerve, as a con-
siderable amount OF money and a
gold watch was on the doctors body
when found. .. % .., - ..-.
