CLAIMS AGAINST SHIPPING BOARD
 ID BE ::SETT TIED
Outstanding Claims of 40 ; Million to Be Expedited
 by Re-Organization

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.- Antici- pating adoption of a bill by congress now in conference between the two houses, the shipping board announce ed tonight a reorganization of It's claim department designed to expe- dite the settlement of claims against the board totalling S14O,OOO.0OO.
 It is the expectation of the board, Elmer Schlessilger, general counsel for the board, that the claims will be settled for sum well within $5O,- 100000, provided by the bill for the purpose.
 Schlessinger said that under a re- cent decision of the United States court of claims. neither the navy nor shipping board could be held liable for damages for the cancellation of war contract on account of the ar mistice, but claimants would only be entitled to just compensation The board, he said, therefore would not consider prospective profits.
 Under the reorganization, Schless- finger said, claims will be handled by individual members of the claims commission. except those of an un- usual character, instead of by the commission as a whole. No payments however, would be made until the findings of the commission have the approval of the shipping board.

JURY WILL DECIDE LF FLIRTING IS CRIME Trial of Woman Who Killed Husband Begins Soon

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 24.-Where does harmless pleasantly end and serious filtration begin between a man and his stelographer?
 This question will be answered when Mrs. Catherine Roster, 2S years old and mother of 4-montns-old baby goes on trial for her life Feb. 27.
 The young mother on Jan. % went to the office of her husband. Oscar Roster. president of an advertising agency. and shot and killed him and his l9-year-old stenographer. Mildred G. Reckitt.
 Drama of a sensational kind Is forecast in the trial. Ranged against Mrs. Roster, supporting the prosecu tion, will be the murdered mans bro- ther, Arthur Roster. and an attorney representing the dead mans inter- ests.
 Jealousy Charged
 The latter. Attorney Frank H. Schrenk, says: Mrs Roster was jealous of every woman employed by her husband"
 If this is to be the basis of the pro- secution's fight for the young moth
 
 drawn in the harmless pleasantly of the advertising mans relations with his stenographer.
 Every effort will be made, it is said, to clear the regulations of the two victims.
 On the other side, seeking to save Mrs. Rosters life, will be former Congressman John R. K. Scott, one of the most noted criminal lawyers in the state. While he refuses to re- veal the defense, it is understood that 1t will be emotional insanity"
 Goaded to Madness
 To establish this it is believed that an effort will be made to show that Roster flirted with his stenographer and with other women, which goaded his wife to the point where she lost control of herself.
 Young, pretty, with a beautiful home in the suburbs of Philadelphia, and the mother of a chubby, blue eyed boy, Mrs. Roster apparently had everything to make her happy. None dreamed of the disappointment which she now says had entered her life.
 Immediately after the double kill ing in her husbands office. Mrs. Roster made this statement, accord ing to the testimony Of a witness at the coroner's inquest:
 While I was in the hospital with my baby three months ago, they were running around together, When T. came this afternoon I caught them,"
 Roster and Miss Reckitt died with in a few hours after the shooting, both protesting their innocence of any wrong doing.
 Lying on the operating table in hospital few minutes before he died Roster dictated, and signed a will leaving his entire estate to his broth CT and his 11-year-old son, Oscar, Jr., by his former wife.
 Since the shooting Mrs. Roster has been held in Moyamensing Prison, released only on three occasions, to appear at the coroner's inquest, and to hear the judge set date fer her trial
