"; Clothes Used to Cover
Form May Prove Clews

The nude body of young woman.
victim of brutal assassin. was found
yesterday morning when employees of
the American Railway Express Com
pany forced open a trunk that had
lain unclaimed in the companys ware
house, 22S East Forty fourth Street
since June II. 1t had been shipped
here from Detroit,
An examination at Bellevue HOSPITAL
morgue showed that the slayer had
made deep incision in the bodv of
the woman, extending from the throat
to the lower extremity of the torso.
The lungs, heart and every vital organ
had been removed. DR.. Charles N. Nor
rls, chief medical examiner said that
so complete was the work of the muir
derer that it was impossible for him to
determine how the woman came to her
death.
The brain was removed yesterday
afternoon and an analysis will be made
to-day. This examination may aid in
determining whether an anasthetic had
been given before the woman met her
death. But even if this proves to have
been the case the surgeons will have
only theory, not entirely sound, that
the victim had undergone criminal
operation and died as a result of it,
Trunk Shipped June 10
The trunk containing the body was
shipped by American Railway Express
from Detroit on June 10. 1t was re-
ceived at Grand Central Station two
days later, and after remaining un-
claimed for week was sent to the
warehouse on Forty fourth Street
There it remained on the third floor of
the warehouse until last Thursday.
The trunk was sent to the first floor
and yesterday morning it was deter
mined to open it.
bore the name of A. A. Tutner, 1O5
Hopsy Street, Detroit, Mich, as the
sender, and the shipment was made to
"Douglass, New York" A given name
had been written on the tag, but the
writing was not legible.
Captain Arthur Carey, head of the
homicide squad, said the name "Doug-
lass" undoubtedly was fictitious. AS
the crime was committed outside of
New York State, he said, the police of
Manhattan could only send the cloth
ing found in the trunk and a record of
the measurements made on the body of
the slain woman to the Detroit police.
DR.. Norris said the butchery of the
slain woman was the most CHASTITY that
ever had come under his observation.
A portion of the tongue was severed,
and, while DR.. Norris would not con-
cede that the work was done by man
who had full knowledge of surgery,
he said that the assassin undoubtedly
knew where the vital organs in the
body were, and he knew how to remove
them. He said that a layman could
not have done the work.
Clothes May Solve Case
Articles of apparel found in the
trunk may prove to be the clews that
will lead to the capture of the slayer.
The woman's body, when found, lay on
its right side, and stuffed around it
were blue serge coat and trousers
that would fit a man of medium build,

Bury Children to Necks;
Wait for Life to Return
Relatives of Lightning Victims
Expect Earth Currents to
Draw Out Electricity

DR.. Howard W. Neail, Deputy Medical
Examiner of Queens County, making
his official visit yesterday to Bayside
where nine year-old Jennie Stahurski
and her brother, Edward, two years old,
were killed by lightning Thursday
night, found the bodies of both chill
dren in the back yard buried up to
their necks.
A throng Of relatives and neighbors
filed the yard and protested vigorously
when DR.. Neail had the bodies dug up.
They explained to the official that every
Pole knew that a person struck by
lightning never was killed outright
and il the body was buried promptly
the earth currents would draw out the
electricity and life would be manifest.
1t was with the greatest difficulty
that DR.. Neail persuaded those who
had been watching for life to return
that it was really extinct. Convinced
at last, they assured the physician that
the measure had failed this time only
because it had not been adopted
promptly enough

Lipton's Smile
Fails to Cover
Grief at Defeat
Shamrock's Owner Cannot
Conceal Real Feelings
as Resolute Ties Score in
the America Cup Series

Sir Thomas Upton saw his green
slcop Shamrock " go down to its sec
ond successive defeat yesterday from
the bridge of MS steam yacht Victoria.
Peerlng anxiously over the edge of the
bridge, his keen blue eyes plainly
showed the disappointment that his
merry, weather beaten face success
fully hid.
He knew, and his subsequent con-
Versatlon indicated he knew, that Sham
rock had failed on her last chance to
obtain for him the realization of his
ilfe's desire. In that moment when
kesolute crossed the line ahead of the
challenger, his actions showed he real
lzed that Fate had knocked from his
tightening grasp the cup which he has
strlven two decades to win.
Three days ago Sir Thomas expressed
his conviction that the Americas Gun
might possibly change hands. Yester-
day, while still expressing sentiments
OF hope, he discussed the possibility Of
again challenging for it.
Praises American Yacht
Despite the disappointment at de-
feat, Sir Thomas took the situation
bravely. Before expressing his own
1eenngs ne hastened to express his
admiration for the American yacht and
her crew. "Resolutc," he said, "won
on all points of sailing. Her crew is
composed of a very good class of men
who do their work in very smart and
efficient manner They are certainly
very we'll trained
Tomorrow will be the deciding fac
tor. but | am very hopeful of the out
come"
Then in jocular moment Sir
Thomas, without APPARENTLY pausing to
think, let slip an indication of his real
thoughts:
Unfortunately" he added, 81 gave
orders for a wooden case for the cup,
and also for a steel safe to put the
wooden case in. Eow the whole things
no use. Still, III keep It for the next
time"
Friday proved to be a regular jinx

Many Wire Praise
OF Harding Speech
Stirring Utterance,' Says
Kno1; Robens Declares
United Party Is Assured
From a Staff Correspondent

MARION, July 23.-Delighted with
praise of his speech of acceptance
contained in congratulatory kilograms
received from all parts of the country
to-day, Senator Warren G. Harding
motored to Mansfield, Ohio, to play
golf, returning after dark this evening

torial fight on the links" the nominee
said as he climbed into his machine
with Senators Freylinghuysen, of New
Jersey, and Hale, Of Maine, and Fred
Upham, of Chicago, treasurer Of the
Republican National Committee. Mrs.
Harding and Mrs. Freylinghuysen &C
companied them.
The Ohio Senator probably was
pleased most by one Of the earliest tel
egrams delivered to him. This was
from Senator Philander c. Knox, of
Pennsylvania, who wired:
"Heartiest congratulations 1t was
strong and stirring utterance by an
earnest and patriotic man, expressed
with that becoming modesty without
which no man is truly great"
Senator Knox was the author Of the
resolution that would have made peace
with Germany by declaration had it
not been vetoed by President Wilson

lenger more eXpert,y than the man who
actually stood at the wheel This
wealth of talent reconciled us to the
thought that the cup might be lost.
Seemingly, every man who owns
pair of binoculars is yachtsman to
his family. The hill was dotted with
heads of households. Each kept tight
hold of the field glasses and told his
wife and children what was going on
usually had their revenge. While the
head was scanning the seas they ate
the ham sandwiches.
On all the hill there was no one
who knew less about the race than we
did. We didn't even have as much as
a pair of spectacles with which to
impress anybody. Suddenly we re-
membered II. Sd, and decided to go
home and give him a lesson in naviga-
ton. He ought, we felt, to see some
thing of Resolute and Shamrock
although yachts are hardly suitable
everyday companions for uniformed
child, what with their reaching and
their pointing.
Still, II. Sd is by no means con
firmed mariner. He began with a dead
ly fear of the sea, but has now out
grown that to such an extent that he
can take the ocean or let it alone, with
equal Willingness. But when we were
back on the front porch we found that
somebody had given H. Sd pack of
cards, six red pebbles and a penny
There wasn't chance in the world to
make him look up and see the yachts.
Yachts Naught in His Young Life
After all, these yachts had no ac-
complishments with which to lure him.
They cannot hum like an airplane or
go ''toot, toot" like the Little Silver
which comes up the Shrewsbury every
afternoon just before bedtime.
Finding H. Sd engaged in impor-
to help us watch the yachts, but no.
body along the strip seemed to realize
that the Americas Cup was hanging
in the balance
The folk along our shore were rails
ing radishes and digging for clans
and reading miss Lulu Bett." They
would look up now and again to find
the dim white sails, and say: isn't
that beautiful" but then they would
go back to their radishes. Maybe our
strip of beach is not unique in that.
Perhaps there is many a person in the
world who would rather be skipper
and sole commander Of his own radish
than mere spectator at race for the
Americas Cup.

Through cracks in the high board fence

And in his lonesome majesty he has
looked on at all the parades and cele-

avenue in recent years. He has watch

without fear or even anxiety, safe in
knowledge that his romping space

him to move, on to the happy land

lraNellnS on the heelS OF MESQUITE
and Shamrock, the big boats fill the eye
with their magnifcence. They seem
more important than the ocean.
Viewed from the Jersey coast, they are
tiny white pellets riding precariously
on vast sea which could take one
every hour without even a gulp of
water to wash it down. In fact, the
ocean shook them so we'll yesterday
that we were not at all sure it did not
mean to use them.
Sea Swallows Tiny Boats
And above the ocean black clouds
banked up and rumbled as if in threats
against the little ships. From black
the clouds shaded down to white fog
banks, which chung to the sea and
swallowed up both boats whenever they
tackled away from shore on the first
thrash down the coast against the wind.
AS Resolute and Shamrock in turn
headed out to sea and drew the white
blankets of invisibility over their
heads we had warmer feeling for
them than we ever did during the
afternoons aboard the Semmes when
we logged their footsteps. For all we
knew both ships might have come to
the end of fiat world and leaped
over the edge. At any rate in their
misty aloofness they touched the
glamorous tradition of ships which
have sailed away to win mightier
stakes than silver cups. 1t seems to
us that the voyage for Golden Fleece
might have been a somewhat less
romantic quest if the tug of The As
ISOLATED Press had journeyed just be-
hind Jason with a stop watch.
Still we must admit that we missed
the experts. To remedy that we
walked down to Highlands and up on
the hills to Twin Lights. The most
expert of the experts were at the top
of the lighthouse we were told. But
it was not necessary for US to go
so high, for the hill was crowded by
many men with telescopes and field
glasses. Nobody in the world is
quite as omniscient as man with
field glasses. Personally, we never
could make them do more than blur
a perfectly clear picture. Never
pair in all the world has told us any
thing we had not already seen with
the naked eye. They worked better
for ting men on the hill.
These Were Real Experts
There was not single owner Of
field glass who could not tell you, if
you asked, by just what margin Reso
Lutte was leading and what mistake Cap
tain Burton had made or was about to
make. Usually it was not necessary
to ask. A man with field glasses is
one of the most expansive and least
reticent persons in the world We
I'd Jo ip
our United States. On that Highland
h!ll there seemed to be at least two
hundred men, any one Of whom at
ten, miles distance could sail the chal-

 AT EAST LAKE PARK
 FREE TO CHILDREN

All children of the city and county will be admitted free of charge to the merry-go-round at East Lake Park on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday after moons of each week between the hours of and o'clock, according to an nouncement made yesterday by Miles Bradford, manager of the park.
 This will be done until further notice, according to MT. Bradford, who hopes to encourage the use of the beautiful playgrounds of the park by the chill dren. Free rides on the merry-go-round during certain hours should attract the children to the park and in this way it is believed they can be induced to join the playground instruction work which is being conducted at the park for the benefit of the children of the city Dur ing the past week a large number of children took advantage of the offer ana after riding on the merry-go-round en- loved the other recreational features of the park,
 According to MT. Bradford, this article clipped from the Birmingham Age-Hel*ld will be honored as pass to the merry go-round for all children under r years of age on Tuesday, Thursday and Satur- day afternoons between ? and clock until further notice.

RIGHT OF WAY FOR
 RELIEF MEASURE
No Effort to Pass Bill Will Be Made Before Tues
 day, However
By Associated Press

Washington, May 22.-Republicans of the House rules committee today or dered favorable report on a special rule giving the soldier relief bill legislative right of way. No date for bringing the bill before the House was set, but Chair man Campbell announced that no effort to pass the measure would be made be- fore Tuesday.
 Objections of committee democrats were based on the rules proposal to deny opportunity to amend the bill on the floor. Under the republican programme only ono motion may be made to recom- init to the ways and means committee.
 In decision of the leaders as to date for bringing the bill before the House was understood to be due to a desire to await the result of a poll of all re- publican members. Leaders said the reso- lution from the rules committee would not be presented until it's adoption was a certainty.
 Meanwhile, House democrats continued t. prepare for fight against the rules committee report expecting aid from half a hundred republicans opposing the cash bonus proposal.
 Tie ombination of the anti-bonus re- publicans with the democrats threatened to defeat the rule, situation that prompted abandonment of plans for pass ing the relief bill today.
 Opposition to another provision of the bill also developed. The national grange protest against the Lane-Mondell land reclamation plan for providing farm homes for former service men. The com plaint was made by A. M. Loomis, sec retary of the grange, in letter to Chair man Fordney, of the ways and means committee, which said that the reclama- ation plan was ia blanget raid on the United States treasury for the vast ex- penditure of money on all sorts of kinds of goods, and indifferent reclamation projects under the guise and behind the cloak of doing something for the sol diers'"

Committee Takes Up Proposed Increase
 In Freight Rates

Discussion of the proposed increases in freight rates was had at a meeting of the traffic and transportation com mittee of the Civic Association yester- day in the cafe of the association.
 The meeting was called by the
 chairman. H. H. She'll to consider the advisa bility of sending a communica- ton to the Interstate Commerce Com mission at Washington in regard to the freight increases.
 The rates being considered by the railroads will call for 35 per cent , increase In the eastern states, a S2 per cent increase in the south and 23 per cent increase in the west. It was the sentiment of the meet i ing, though no action was taken, that
 TO rates should be put into effect giv- ing one section of the country the benefit of lower rates over the other. At later meeting which will be called during the week by the chair
 man definite action will be taken by | the committee.

Marriage Licenses
 Exceed DivOrces

Marriage licenses issued last week more than doubled the number of divorces filed, there being eighty-five of the for mer and forty of the latter.
 According to officials of the chancery division of the circuit court the number of divorces filed is the largest record for week in some time. Desertion was the chief ground in many divorce cases, while cruelty came a close second. Many of the divorces were against non-residents.
 Marriage licenses were issued to per- sons whose ages ranged from fifteen to forty five. Of the eighty-five marriage licenses issued thirty-two were to white people and the remaining fifty-three were to negroes.

NEW RECESS PLAN
 GAINING HEADWAY
Settlement of Row Over Packing Control Bill
 Paves the Way
Bv AssocIated Press

Washington, May 22.-A new plan for recess of Congress for June or to about August 3, with a further recess over the November elections in the back ground, developed today from Senate me- gotiations on the summer programme.
 The new proposal was said by leaders on both sides to have gained headway, subject to future legislative developments and also possible action by President Wilson, but agitation for a sine die ao- journment remained.
 Settlement today of the republican fac- tion row of the meat packer control bill was said to have paved the way for a recess. Its advocates agreed to assist in expeditng appropriation bills and con- ference reports on legislation already passed by both houses, but with notice that any remaining time would be de- manded for the packer measure With this understanding the advocates of the packer measure abandoned their efforts to put it ahead of the army appropria- tion bill.
 A conference of republican senators to- day voted unanimously to suppress the appropriation bills and conference re-
