cause they would not support him In the

time to campaigning for the organiza-
ton, but, Of course, not at city ex-
pense" Any recommendation made to
him by the regular organizations of the

WOMAN C0NFESSES
MURDER, SAYS CHIEF
Miltim0re Killed Because He
Would Not Admit Shortage
Was His Fault.
$500 is RECOVERED
Money Found in Bureau Of
Studio Room Rented by
Miss Clarke.
$500 is RECOVERED

WEST PALM BEACH Fla, Aug. A.
Chief of Police vestal OF Orlando told
newspaper reporters this afternoon that
Miss Lena Clarke, who has admitted the
theft of $4,000 from the West Palm
Beach Post Office. Of which she was in
charge. also has confessed TO the muir
der of Fred A. Miltimore, who was shot
to death in a hotel room at Orlando.
According to Chief Vestal. the woman
killed Miltimore when he refused to
sign statement admitting his respon-
sibility for shortages in the accounts of
the Post Office,
Yesterday $500 Of the stolen money
was recovered in a room she had rented
for a studio" in the house of ]. e.
Chambers, in whose car she fled to Or
lando. The money was found In bu-
reau drawer. The audit SO far indicates
that she is about SIS, short. This
Clarke woman had been I'm the Govern
ment employ seventeen years, and for
the last two years has been post mis-
tress here.
The first of the shortages occurred in
December. 1918, she told Vestal. when
$3S,o00 Of War Savings Stamps funds
disappeared. Later $40. 900 In cancelled
money order receipts disappeared from
the office. This happened while both
Miss Clarke and Miltimore were en-
ployed there and lie both were appli-
cants for the appointment as Postmaster.
The woman said she believed Miltimore
was responsible for this theft, which she
lays to an effort to discredit her with
the postal authorities.
U,t.o y ,ters,x
Miltimore was killed, was modified to-
day when Chief Vestal again inter-
viewed the woman. At this last inter-
view she said, IF l shot him I don't
know it."
To-day the police went to the hotel
room where Miltimore was killed and
which had been occupied by Miss
Clarke. After a search they found in
the tank of the bathroom a roll of wa
tersoaked bills of five and ten dollar
denominations. They made this search
at the direction Of the woman, who told
Chief Vestal last night she had a Wis
ion which told her where she had put
the bills" This money totalled s726 and
was in several rolls. held together by O
rubber band.
1t was explained later by the self
confessed slayer that she had taken
several bills from the sacks which con-
tanned the $1,000 and that this ac-
counted for only $725 being recovered.
Miss Clarke previously claimed she left
the money in two sacks near Miltimores s
body. The sacks Were on the floor be-
side the body when 1t was discovered.
but had been cut open and were empty.
On Monday evening. when the Clarke
woman first called upon Chief vestal.
and after the officers sent to the room
to investigate had reported the man had
been shot dead, the Chief said he
charged her with the crime. II didn't
shoot him. I merely gave him a drug"
she protested, You shot that man." the
Chief says he insisted, and, according to
VestaI, she finally admitted We'll, he
tried to implicate me- so / shot him. !"
She would make no further statements
that night.

FARM CREDIT PLAN
PASSED BY SENATE
Bill for Relief of Agricultur-
lists Goes to House as
Hoover Revised 1t.
BOND ISSUE TWO BILLIONS
Norris of Nebraska, Foe of
Successful Substitute, Is
Stricken With Illness.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.--Another far
mers relief measure, the Administration
plan for Government aiG in supplying
credit for expectation 81 agricultural
products, was passed by the Senate to-
Gay and sent to the House.
The bill was a substitute for the orig
inal Norris bill and provides for the War
Finance Corporation to furnish the ex-
port credits. The Norris bill, which pro-
posed a new Government credit organ
ization, was laid aside formally and the
substitute, In charge of Senator McNary
(Ore), Republican, for tie Agriculture
Committee, was passed without a roll
call.
The substitute plan was drafted by
Secretary Hoover Of the Department of
Commerce and Director Meyer of the
War Finance Corporation. 1t was
adopted virtually intact to-day. the bill
authorizing the War Finance Corpora
ton to make loans to agriculturists' as
sociations banks and trust companies.
The bill makes no change In the corpora
tion's cash capital Of $500. 100000. but
reduces from three to two billion dollars
the authorized maximum of bonds 1t may
issue. This, according TO Director Meyer.
will be mere than sufficient.
Through loans to banks on agricul-
tural collateral 1t is expected that the
bills influence will be mostly felt by
expan nsion of credit available to farmers.
In disposing Of final amendments, the
Senate rejected riders Of Western Sena-
tors to extend privileges of the Federal
Farm Loan system to entrymen on Gov
ernment reclamation projects. Assur-
ances for future action in separate bill,
however, were given.
Senator Norris tNeb). Republican,
chairman of the Agriculture Committee,
who initiated the credits legislation and
who collapsed week ago to-day after
long speech criticising the Administra-
tion substitute. was not present for the
vote to-day. He left tonight for an
extended vacation in an effort to regain
his health.
