 Shot New York Doctor

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.- Revealing more and more of the load of anguish which she said became unbearable and drove her to take life, Mrs. Lil' Han s. Raizen tonight supplied an add ed motive for the shooting of Dr. Ab' raham Glickstein.
 This, she confessed, was that dur ing the six years of their intimacy, Dr. Glickstein had performed an opera tion which had rendered Ter incapa- ble of motherhood.
 Only after months of married life with Raizen, she said. did she realize the full extent of her misfortune which inflamed in her the desire for vengeance on the author of her un happiness.
 This disclosure by the young wom an, who is awaiting trial on a charge of murder. was followed by the infor another source, that her trial would be notable for the identification oi ideas and phrases unfamiliar to lega terminology-her alleged vengeance complex" her murder obsession" - words borrowed from the lexicon o the psychoanalyst.

IRISH CABINET STILL AT ODDS
 AS TO TREATY
Second Private Session Held by Dail Eireann Ends With
 No Agreement Reached DEBATES ARE HEATED
Both Supporters and Oppon- ents of Pact Anxious to
 Gives Views to Public

DUBLIN, Dec. 15.-CRy the Asso. ciated Press) - The second private session of the Dail Eireann today had under consideration the Anglo-Irish treaty, lasted until nearly D. m, and adjourned without reaching a decis- ion. It will re-assemble in private session tomorrow.
 The most that can be said tonight is that there is strong possibility that the public session, at which it is hoped to take a vote on ratification. may not be held until Saturday. If matters should progress no further tomorrow, however. than today, it was thought likely that Saturdays sitting would be private and that the until next week.
 Public Hearing Banned
 The interpretation placed on this is that it is felt to be undesirable to debate the controversial points in de- tail before newspaper men and that public sessions of course will be ar ranged beforehand The peace dele gates and some of their supporters are said to be determined to afford themselves of an opportunity Of stat ing in public to the Dail Eireann and through the Dail to the country the reason why they recommend accept ance of the treaty.
 Opponents are equally anxious to explain their objections Some object to inclusion of Ireland in the British Empire, and some to the privy coun- ell as the supreme court Of 9DDaa1 and there are numerous objections to assuming a share of Great Britain's war debts
 Strong Leader Needed
 Dr. Ada English, woman member of the Dail, commenting on the situa tion. said:

Upon being found that evening he was given medical at- tention.
 Failure of the government to under take extensive development of the Alameda. Calif.. naval base project was understood to have been a cause of great concern to him, as he had given close attention to the plan. Whether other matters pertaining to his district had also weighed on his mind could not be said tonight. al- though it was asserted he had de cided not to stand for reelection.
 Elston's hat and overcoat were found on the bank Of the river about the time the body was recovered. The note said:

Instructions with regard to this were sent to the Japanese delegates in Washington several days ago. accord ing to competent authority, and consummation of the sale depends on an engagement as to method and also to some extent on China's attitude on other pending problems.

ONE.

Drummond paused for a moment at the door of the sitting room, then with slight shrug he stepped past Peter son. During the last few days he had grown to look on this particular room as the private den of the principals of the gang. He associated it in his mind with Peterson himself Suave, impaS- sive, ruthless; with the girl Irma, per fectly gowned, lying on the sofa, .smok- ing innumerable cigarettes. and mani curing her already faultless nails; and in lesser degree, with Henry Laking tons thin, cruel face, and blue, staring eyes.
 But tonight a different scene con- fronted him. The girl was not there i; her accustomed place on the sofa was occupied by an unkempt-looking man with a ragged beard At the end of the table was vacant chair, on the right of which sat Lakington regard ing him with malevolent fury. Along the table on each side there were half a dozen men, and he glanced at their faces. Some were obviously foreign ers some might have been anything from murderers to Sunday school teachers. There was one with spec tacles and the general appearance of an intimidated rabbit, while his neigh bor, helped by large red scar right across his cheek, and two bloodshot eyes. struck Hugh as being the sort of man with whom one would not share luncheon basket.
 Peterson's voice from just behind his shoulder reused him.
