ADJUSTMENTS
RIvo1I, TUESDAY OCTOBER IS

The booking or Ralph Dunbar's
presentation of DeKovens robin
Hood" by the management Of the
Rivoli Theatre for Tuesday Oct. tS,
causes inquiry as to why these keen
theatrical discerners choose a revival
at this time when modern musical
comedies are so plentiful. When ques-
toned on the point, they advise that
they give the public what they want,
and when robin Hood is mentioned,
they generally say that wherever there
is wholesome theatrical support, ade-
quate presentations of "Robin Hood"
at intervals have always been welcom-'
ed and will be. They say they have
no opinions of their own; that they
only reflect the opinions of the people
who buy the tickets and that as long
as people love music that is esteemed
as highly after thirty years as it was
when first its harmonies went over the
footlights, and as long as folks love
beautiful ladies and heroic men, and
enjoy the loveliest vistas that scenic
are has ever produced, so long will
people love Robin Hood"

$1O,0OO,OOO IN GOLD
IS HELD BY OCEAN
BY EARL C. REEVES

international News Service Staff
Correspondent
LONDON, Oct. IL After her
fourth year of effort to salvage the
$40, 900. 900 of gold lost in the liner
IIaurentic, the Racer has been laid up
until next April, when she will resume
operations.
1t was on January 2S, 1917, that the
Lauretic. magnificent auxiliary
cruiser, struck a mine and sank in
Lough Swilly off one of the widest
parts of the west coast of Ireland, in
over twenty fathoms of water.
Ship Covered by Sand
The same Summer salvage opera
tions were started on her. But there
was a great initial difficulty on ac-
count of the swift sitting up of the
sand. only by luck was the wreck
found at all-two divers came across
q mound of sand, and by chance they
saw piece of metal protruding. The
mound--not much more than ten feet
high, but covering some hundreds OF
square feet-was the Laurentic.
1t became necessary to place rings
of explosives on the exposed plates
and cut out a section, exposing grid
ers and more plates below, and these
in turn had to be cut through by dy-
Mantle until the layer containing the
gold was reached. So great had the
pressure of the sand been, however,
that the strong room, previously about
twelve feet high, had been pressed out
IN the height of a few inches and the

owen Potter. pardon clerk In the
office of Gov. Nathan l.. Miller at
Albany. telephoned to Warden Lewis
F.. Lawes Of Sing Sing Prison last
night that the Governor had decided
to grant respite Of ten days to Paul
La Guidice, who has been raving
maniac for several days in his cell IN
the death house. La Guidice was to
have been put to death last night for
the murder of Mrs. Sophia Fichera in
Monroe county. Mr.. Potter told the
warden that the papers granting the
respite would be mailed from Albany
at once and probably would reach the
prison this morning.
The decision of the Governor was
made after La Guidice's attorney,
Joseph p. Doyle Of Rochester. and DR..
Amos o. Squire. prison physician. had
gone to Albany. where they talked with
the Governor over the telephone at
Rochester and with other State Of
ficials in the executive offices. The
warden made no announcement last
night excepting to say that the respite
had been granted, but II was under
stood generally about the prison that
La Guidice would not be killed until
another commission of alienists had an
opportunity to examine him and pass
upon his sanity. Some time ago alien
lists reported him sane.
At that time, however, La Guidice
was quiet Recently he has become
violent, and keepers who have observed
insane prisoners TOR years say there Is
no doubt the man Is a raving maniac.
He has conducted himself like an
animal. refusing TO eat and tearing the
clothing from his body and sprawling
ebout naked on the floor. During the
nights he has howled and screamed and
banged the walls and floors Of his cell.
alternating the banging with attempts
to pull the bars from the masonry. To
prevent him from infiicting injuries upon
himself he has been confined In strait
Jacket for the last two days. and yester-
dav whom an effort was made to clothe
him IN the black suit that all condemned
men wear to the electric chair he be-
came so violent that seven men fought
him for more than an hour before they
subdued him.
Keepers who have been In the death
house said yesterday that La Guidice
was more violent than any man they
recalled. None OF them believe ne is
feigning insanity to escape the chair.
although dispatches from Albany said
that the man had confessed that once
before he slammed insanity to obtain a
reprieve. His actions yesterday and on
the two or three days preceding, now
ever. have convinced prison ATTENDANTS
and officials that he Is insane. He has
not slept for several DAYS, excepting
when he falls exhausted after MS
periods OF roaring and raving, and then
only for few minutes at time.

THE demand by German Com
munists for amnesty for their
party adherents who were SEN
fenced to prison terms for par
ticipating in the March 1920
uprising has received added
strength by the publication of
the sum total of penalties in
flicted on such persons convicted
by the special courts.
The Communist organ Rote
Fahne Cred Flag reports that
400 workers were sentenced to
an aggregate of 1,500 years in
the penitentiary, 500 workers to
an aggregate of 500 years inn
prisonment, 8 to penal servitude
for life and to death.
Brandler, one Of the Wolfgang
Kapp coup d'etat leaders, was
sentenced to only five years de-
tention as a political prisoner, a
fact which Communists here now
argue mitigates the crimes of
the others convicted and war
rants general pardon.
