SLAYER Of NURSE
EvADES SQUAD OF

Annapolis Academy Board
Hunts in Vain for Girls
Murderer.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, January 15.-Al-
though a board of naval officers de-
tailed by Rear Admiral A. II. Scales.
superintendent of the Naval Academy.
has been prosecuting a rigid investi
cation throughout the day, it had
identity of the assailant of Miss Har-
riet NJ. Kavanaugh. a nurse OF the
Naval Hospital, who was murdered
on the Naval Academy reservation
some time between $3.50 and 10 o'clock
last night, 80,
Lying in an unconscious condition
at the foot Of q thirty-five-foot ter
race about the naval cemetery
grounds. just across College creek
from the Naval Academy proper, her
skull crushed in three places. Miss
Kavanaugh was found at s:45 o'clock
by Pharmacist Mate Kenneth Riley.
attached to the hospital. Miss Kav-
anaugh died today without regaining
consciousness.
Two Under Suspicion.
Numerous enlisted men attached to
the local station were called as wit
nesses before the investigating board,
but without result.
Meanwhile, the city police officials
are aiding the academy authorities as
far as possible in an effort to hunt
down the criminal. At least two men,
one in the service. another said to be
a deserter, are said to be under sur
veillance.
That Miss Kavanaugh was practi-
cally beaten to death by a piece of
pipe and that robbery probably was
the motive of her assailant are the
accepted theories. Her pocketbook
is missing. The belief almost gen.
orally advanced at first was that Miss
Kavanaugh may have been the victim
Of a criminal assault, but this was
exploded by an examination made by
naval surgeons on duty at the hos
pital.
First Blow Probably Fatal
A piece Of bloody pipe about two
feet long, which undoubtedly was
the instrument with which Miss Kava-
naugh was beaten over the head, was
found near the spot where her body
lay.
1t has been learned that Miss Kava-
naugh had been in Annapolis during
the early hours of the evening in
company with another naval nurse.
whom she bade good night at the
Oklahoma gate leading to the Naval
Academy grounds. This was, about
9:15 o'clock. and it is figured that
the assault must have been committed
about $3.50.
The spot where Miss Kavanaugh's
body was found by Pharmacists
Mate Riley is at the foot of a ter
race thirty-five feet deep between
what is known as Cemetery Lodge"
and the home of James Casey, super
intendent of the government reserva-
tion. So far as has been learned, no
one heard Miss Kavanaugh utter any
outcries. It is thought, therefore,
that the first blow dealt by her as
sailant must have been a severe one
and that she was rendered uncon-
scious instantly.

By the Associated Press.


LEGHORN. January 15.-Commun-
ism and socialism matched forces this
afternoon at the session of the
Italian socialist congress. Tumultu-
Gus scenes were enacted, and during
the uproar fist fights among the dele
gates were numerous. \ To observers
Of the proceedings there seemed to
the session that there would be
fought out in this congress the issue
Of bolshevism.
Every mention of communism and
socialism brought forth cheers or pro-
tests from the respective opposing
sides. Signor Bombacci. the presi-
dent, mentioned the names of DR..
Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxem-
burg, the German socialists. who
were killed in Berlin during the dis
orders of 1919, whom he characterized
as martyrs At the mention of their
names there was pandemonium in the
hall. The communists raised cries of
'.Hurrah for communism" which an
tagonized the socialists. and there en-
sued a fierce battle of words between
the various factions throughout the
hall In the confusion some Of the
delegates stood on the benches, ges-
ticulating and shouting until they
were exhausted.
One Test of Strength.
c;enor Rombacci finally was able
TO resume his address, which he con-
cluded with the words: Long live
the voices which come to us from the
dead, from the prisons. from the ex-
iles-in which the proletariat Of all
countries unite.
There was one test of strength this
afternoon, though no count was taken
of the vote. 1t came on the raising
Of hands on a motion by Deputy
Misiano, which the congress approved.

POSTMASTER INSPECTS
WARREN RURAL ROUTES
Patrons Advised to Comply With Postal
Regulati0ns.-Mail Boxes Should
Be Placed on Right of Road

A recent inspection of the rural
routes served by the Warren post Office
by Postmaster G. A. Tullar reveals a.
number Of instances where patrons are
not observing the requirements of the
Department establishing rural delivery.
1t is assumed that this lack of co-opera-
ton with, the rules and regulations is
due in most cases to ignorance of just
what are the requirements. The post
master will gladly furnish this informa-
ton to any patron who calls at the
Office s-
On each of the routes there are sew
eral boxes in use that do not meet the
requirements and are not safe for: the
security of mail. The boxes should be
erected on the carriers right if .prac-
ticable, and accessible for delivery of
mail without the necessity Of moving
from his seat Nearly half of the
rural boxes are on the left side and
should be relocated on the right.
Many people think it is arbitrary to
enforce the regulation providing that
all mail boxes shall be on the right
side Of the road, but the government
takes the position that the mail man
has no more right than anyone else to
ignore the traffic regulations. The rul-
ing is made because to travel from one
Lside Of the road to the other would
endanger the life of the carrier and the
safety OF the mails and would be In
violation Of state and local laws in re
zsppect to the use of highways. .;..s ST B

CITY ni,BR AR ! SHOWS !.
SUBSTAN'Tl| GRO WITH
Excellent Record Made During Libra
rvs First Year. -1235 Books
IN =.Ez.@. S Loaned

Through the enthusiasm and splendid
work Of the Mothers Club a City Lii
brary was started a year ago. From
that time the library has served ID good
purpose and filled real need, and as
it grows, it's usefulness will increase y
On the shelves are found carefully
selected list of books, both fiction and
non-fction. In addition, 1t has set of
new international Cyclopedia and other
reference books. The total number Of
volumes is 1854, very good beginning
when considering the quality Of the
books and the prevailing prices of
books. During the year, 1885 books
have been circulated among 12O people.
OF these 100 people, ten live in the
country. Hence the library assumes
to some extent the character of COM
munity enterprise.
+. The library is in the Immediate con-
troll Of a library board-consisting of
nine members, appointed by the mayor
of the city. Mrs. A. L. Robinson is
president Of the Board, and Mrs. w. @.
Braggans, secretary. =.
All funds so far have been obtained
from free contributions by business
men and citizens of Warren, and have
been used exclusively for the purchase
Of books. To serve larger number Of
patrons, the library needs more funds
with which to purchase books An en-
deavor will be made by the Mothers
Club to raise some money to meet this
pressing need. ,tz ..5..
If you have not already visited the
library room at the High School do so
in the near future. You will find it a
very interesting place.
