DESPONDENT RUSSIAN SHOT.
BY CHUM AT OWN REQUEST
Pair Went to Cemetery and EN-.
braced and Kissed Before Killing

New York, Nov. A story as grim
ms the most real of Russian rea!ists was
told today in police headquarters.
1t concerned Frank Passyno, ships
carpenter, found shot to death in Rus
sian cemetery at South River, y. j.,
last Sunday. 1t came from the lips
Of Alexander Sayin, his Chum, who
was arrested yesterday as n fugitive
from justice and held OH charge of
homicide.
This is the confession Savia is alleged
to have made to the police:
That, out of work for four months.
PassynU had become respondent and
tried In vain TO starve himself to death {;
that al last he had asked Savin to shoot
h'M; that Savin had refused, but had
been met with n threat of death that
last Sunday the two had gone from their
room in this city TO the Russian Gem
ctcry across the Hudson; that the two
had embraced and kissed; that Savin
had fired three shots without killing his
chum: that passyno then had asked him
TO pause until he had given his last 81
to his eXecutioner as reward; that
the fourth shot had done the work.
Savin, according to the police, added
that he had dragged the body to q
place where passers by might more easily
find it. This resulted in discovery OF
the body and II" establishing OF
Passyno's identity Trough analysis by
baltimore oculist oi lenses in the dead
mans glasses.

KING ALEXANDER TO TAKE
OATH OF OFFICE TOMORROW
Long Stay In Paris Due to Desire
TO Win Prlncess Bride

Belgrade, Nov. 4.-(By A. PD-
King Alexander will take the oath of
Office as ruler OF Jugo- Slavia tomor-
row. Since his arrival here he has re-
sumed active direction Of affairs. Re-
ports that there IS probability of
change in the occupant of the throne
are regarded in this city as absolutely
unfounded.
The prolonged stay in Paris of King
Alexander after the death Of his father,
King Peter. was the subject Of much
comment, but it appears that the young
monarch had two excellent reasons for
delaying his return 10 Belgrade. The
first was the necessity for quiet and
rest after an operation in July. The
second was his desire to bring to a
happy conclusion his courtship Of
Princess Sophie, second daughter Of
Prince Emmanuel, Duke of Vendome and
Of Alencon, q member OF the Bourbon
Orleans family. 1t appears at present
that this courtship has been broken off
because Of religious differences and the
reluctance Of Princess Sophie to live In
Belgrade.
1t ia said In political circles that
Alexander before consenting 10 return
10 Belgrade demanded from the Gov
ernment, among other things, certain
guarantees regarding his civil list and
revision of the constitution, which
would give a larger measure OF auton-
ony to provinces acquired as a result
of the World War. These reports,
however, are denied by the Govern
ment.

tor short by demanding the regular order
Of business, and the Senate went to the
consideration of memorials and peti"
tions.
Senator Simmons, of North Carolina,
lnter obtained unanimous consent for
immediate consideration of the resolu-
ton of inquiry. He proposed an amend
ment which was regarded as In lieu or
the move he contemplated yesterday to
discharge the committee and drop the
committee inquiry.
During the discussions Senator Edge
presented severe criticism of the Georgia
Senator for attempting to place In the
Congressional Record yesterday pho
tograph Of a gallows said to have been
used by the army in France. Senator
Edge said that Watson had not re-
quested publication of the article
printed with tho photograph in Pas
sale IN. J.) newspaper.
The article showed, Edge added, that
Il was used for legal execution after
court martial for IN attack on q
seven year old French girl. who died
from the effects Of the assault.
Senator Edge asked whether Senator
Watson sought to justify his charges Of
illegal executions without trial by pre-
senting the photograph of a gallows used
In court martial execution.
"The issue in this case cannot be
camouhaged," said Senator Edge. NO
one claimed that men were not tried
and executed. The picture of n gallows
used for punishment of a brute Is no
justification of the charges of the sena-
tor from Georgia. He cannot cover
them over with photographs and repro
ductlons he offered yesterday. The
American people want to know the
facts. to have the Senator's charges
proven or disproVen by uncontroverted
evidence"
Replying to the New Jersey Senator,
Senator Watson referred to the picture
showing the hanging OF the Negro for an
attack on little French girl and de-
manded
"Since when has it become legal to
disgrace the uniform Of the American
Army by hanging it at the end of q
| halter?"
The Georgia Senator called attention
| to the fact that In the casualty lists
the phrase: Dead from other causes,
and asked, "what were those causes?''
eve are Just now beginning to find
out" he declared.
Taking up the case of the soldier
Frye, who was killed by sentry, the
speaker declared that he had a cOnstit
| uent in Georgia who saw the commits
sion OF "that foul crime, than which no
German ever committed a fouler," and
that his affidavit would be presented to
the Senate as soon as it could reach
Washington.
Senator Watson took up the state
ment Of Newton ID. Baker, former Sec :.
retary Of War, that tho Senator s
charges were "preposterous and incred :
ible."
Little Newt had to get in," said
Senator Watson, laughing. Poor lit =

Republican women voters who apply
at the headquarters Of the Republican
Women Of Philadelphia for advice as
to what party or candidates to vote
for are told that the Republican WON =
ems Committee Is free and independent
and that they can vote as they please.
Official announcement Of this position
which has been taken by the organisa-
tion was made today by Mrs. John
Wanamaker, Sd. secretary OF the
Women's Committee.
Ware leaders, in control Of the Re
publican City Committee, said that this
bold stand by the Women's Committee
may subject Mrs. WanGmakcr and Mrs.
B. Dobson Altemus TO charges OF so
called disloyalty to the regular Ware
City Committee. The practice In the
Ware committee is to expel members
who are "disloyal."
This question Of "disloyalty" be-
comes important because Mrs. Wanna =
maker is assistant secretary Of the Re-
publican City Committee, and Mrs. AL
temus, chairman Of the Republican
Women, Is vice chairman OF the regular
City Committee.
Tried TO Break Varo Slate
This situation is not worrying Mrs.
Wanamaker or Mrs. Altemus, who
really broke with the Ware organiSa .
tion's City Committee before the recent
primaries. when they and their allies
worked for the Voters League ticket
as against the Ware slate. SINE OF
their friends also pointed out thgt the
Ware leaders would hesitate about using
the rough stuff" against the women,
although they have had no scruples or
feelings Of delicacy in the past when 1t
came to dealing with recalcitrant mas
Culine leaders.
The fact that inquiries are being
made at the headquarters Of the Re-
publican Women in the Grocer Building
indicates, said Mrs. Wannmaker, that
women voters are interested keenly in
the election Tuesday, even though the
men voters generally seem apathetic.
Many men, politicians remarked, do not
sppeor to realize that an important
election of county officers and judges
Is to be held next Tuesday. This Is
not the case with the women. They
