1t is understood the army favors i'm

throughout Greece as the best means
of recovering these arms and avert

The cabinet. however, hesitates to
ratify such measure. as it fears this
would produce the impression that
the revolution was restricted in tend
ency rather than liberal.
The revolutionary committee con-
tinues to urge unity upon the po1iti-
cal factions. and especially insists
that King George shall not be affil-
lated with any party. One of the ac-
cusations against the deposed King
Constantine was that he meddled in
party politics.
Greece has received another un-
pleasant shock in the news that
Italy considers the convention ceding

This Greco-Italian convention was
attached to the treaty of SeVres,
which Italy deems no longer opera

The government expects former

Washington has just closed a sue
cessful educational campaign in the
interest of fire prevention, which was
carried on by a committee Of citizens
appointed by the Commissioners,
under the leadership of Charles w.

The need for a safety-drive in
Washington at this time has been
made more timely by the revival of
roller skating.

ARREST LAID TO POLITICS.

Jersey Over Probe.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., October
10.-The murder of the Rev Edward
Wheeler Hall and his choir singer,
Mrs. Eleanor Mills, was stepped in
deeper mystery than ever today. not
withstanding the arrest of Clifford
Hayes. who is formally charged with
the crime.
A wave of skepticism has swept the
entire state of New Jersey and the
detention of young Hayes. boy Of
good reputation in the community, is
denounced In certain quarters as a
political arrest
The story which has put him behind
the bars, told by his supposed friend
and companion on the night of the
murder, Raymond Schneider, is de-
clared too fantastic for ready be-
lief. Furthermore, it leaves some of
the most essential phases of the
murder entirely unexplained, it is as
serted.
If the prosecutors are satisfied with
the Schneider theory that the rector
and the singer were shot by mistake
on the assumption that they were an
other couple. they either know a grea t
deal more than they have made pub
lie or are more easily satisfied than
the average citizen of New Bruns-
wick. The New Brunswick newspa-
pers today call upon the prosecution
for a better solution" of the crime.
"Confessfon" Under Strain.
It is plain that the alleged "confes-
sion" of Schneider that he was with
Hayes when the latter shot the tryst-
ing rector and singer under the old
apple tree on the Phillips farm was
obtained after an entire night of the
third degree" The method employ ed
was the favorite one of not permit
ting the witness to sleep, shouting
questions at him at the slightest sign
of a doze. Hayes says the authori-
ties tried similar methods on him, but
he had nothing to tell.
Although the authorities are under
fire for their present line of inquiry.
they rightfully say they cannot over
look the fact that the boys under sus-
picion were in the vicinity of the
crime and had the opportunity" to
kill. They also take into considera-
ton the fact that 1t was the Schnei-
der boy who finally reported the find

FOR PAVING BILL
Seeks Canceling of Assess
ment for Benning
Road Work.

The Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company today brought suit in
the District Supreme Court. through
Attorneys w. c. Sullivan. against the
Commissioners of the District, to can
eel an assessment under the Borland
amendments for paving Benning road.
This is the second suit Of the kind re-
Gently brought, Mount Olivet ceme-
terry having filed similar suit sew
eral weeks ago in connection with the
paving of Bladensburg road.
Company's Contentious.
The railway company in it's bill
claims relief on the grounds. among
others, that the Commissioners paved
Benning road without any authority
to do SO; that Benning road was
neither completely resurfaced, nor
was it resurfaced between the side
thereof and the center thereof; that
the Borland amendments apply only
to streets in a city or village, and
Benning road is in a rural section of
the District; that the Borland amend
ments do not apply to railroad rights
of way, particularly to such as that
OF the company, which it is required
by law to convey to the District of
Columbia when Benning road shall be
widened to a width of ninety feet.
Application of Amendments.
The Borland amendments can, in
any event, it is claimed. apply only
to the extent of increased value ac-
tually given by reason of the paving
for which the assessment is made,
and the company's particular right of
way involved in the suit was not in
creased in value at all, and that no
charge can be made against the COM
pany for paving outside of its own
tracks except for two feet on each
side thereof.
