Slayer Freed on
Technicality To
Fight Removal
Harry Thompson Opposes
Return to Iowa Prison for
Violation of His
Parole.

Lincoln. Aug. lS.--(Special. )--Re-
leased from the Nebraska state pen
itentiary on one technicality, Harry
Thompson, through his attorneys, is
endeavoring to escape serving i'll the
Iowa state penitentlary on another
technicality.
Thompson, who was released We'd
ncsday after serving one year OF
a l0-year sentence for manslaughter
at Stanton. Neb,, was arrested a
few hours later by N. B. Harmon,
parole officer. on receipt OF tele-
gram from T. P. Hollowell, warden
of the Iowa state reformatory, saying
Thompson was wanted there Tor
breaking his parole.
A few hours after his release two
attorneys. John A. Ehrhardt and
George A. Eberly of Stanton, ap-
peared in Lincoln and filed petit
ton for a writ of habeas corpus in
the Lancaster county district court.
They alleged that Thompson is not
fugitive from justice in Iowa and
was taken to Nebraska to stand trial
for the murder of Dayton Chambers
at Stanton in September, 1919.
Thompson was released when the
county attorney at Stanton failed to
file motion for a new trial within
40 days after the supreme court re-
versed his conviction on July 4,
without rcmanding the case for re-
trial.
The technical reason why the case
was reversed by the supreme court
was because the trial court submit
ted to the jury the question OF
Thompsons guilt in several degrees,
while the complaint specifically
charged him with first degree MUIR
der.
Under the law when a case is re-
versed without remanding it for re-
trial the person accused is automat-
ically released at the end of 40 days.
Thompsons prison record began
with term in the state reforma-
tory at Anamosa, Ia. He was paroled
from that institution and came to
Nebraska. He is alleged to have
committed the murder at Stanton,
but escaped and went to Iowa. There
he was arrested on a charge of lar
ceny and was convicted and SEN
fenced to state prison at Fort Mad
ison, Ia. While serving his sentence
there, Nebraska authorities asked to
take Thompson back to Stanton
county to face the murder charge and

Which May Be Discussed.

Peking. Aug. lS.--By The Asso-
c;ated Press. China has formally
replied with a cordial acceptance TO
the invitation to attend the Wash
ington disarmament and Far Eastern
conference, it was announced today.
President Harding's sincerity in
calling the conference, manifested in
the absence OF limitation OF the Sub
iects which may be discussed, says
the reply is appreciated and the hope
is voiced that the mutual exchange
of views will enable clearer inter-
national understanding to be had re-
garding problems OF the PACING
which has been the focus of world
attention since the conclusion OF the
world war.
Will Have Many Experts.
Discussing China's preparations
for the conference DR.. Yen, the for
eign minister, said today that not
knowing what trend the discussions
might take the government had or
ganized a special department, COM
prising representatives of several OF
the ministries which has been
charged with the task of preparing
data upon any possible questions in
which Chinese interests might be
involved
The question of the personnel OF
the delegation has not been deter
mined, said DR.. Yen, and its actual
makeup might be announced only
after its arrival in Washington.
Know No Division.
In answering the contention Of
DR.. Sun Vat Sen, head of the Can
ton, or south China, government,
that the Peking government was
not representative of the whole OF
China, the foreign minister said that
as for him he knew no north and no
south--only China and its best
good.
There has been a revival in the
press of discussion Of possible ac-
ceptance by China OF Japan's pro-
posal to negotiate for the restitu-
ton of Shantung before the confer
ence is held. As to this, DR.. Yen

Hightower Not Named
By Coroner S Jury In
Inquest Over Priest

San Francisco, Aug. 18.-The
verdict of the coroner's jury which
investigated the death of Rev. Pat
rick E. Heslin, Colma priest, made
no mention of William A. High
tower. held on a charge of murder.
The verdict read: 1--WE find that
Father Patrick E. Heslin came to his
death either by brows on the head
which fractured his skull, or by two
gunshot wounds, either one OF which
was sufficient to cause DEATH"
Duncan Matheson, San Francisco
captain of detectives, said the police
had dismissed the idea that Dolly
Mason" who Hightower said fur
nished the clue to the location of the
priests grave, is living personality.
They now advance the theory that
Dolly Mason" was the creation of
Hightower's mind and was given
many of the attributes of Doris
Shirley, his former companion.
Doris Shirley has told all she
knows of Hightower's activities,
Matheson said, and no longer is un-
der detention.
