SHERIFF DEF|ED
BY SUSPECT IN
DERN|ER CASE
"H You Have the Nerve, Arrest
Me-" He Says As He Leaves
Phoenix.
BY DON II. EDDY.
Rx unlyeraal service.

PHOENIX, Ariz.. Oct. 12.-"If
you've got nerve enough to arrest
me. go ahead. See how far you'll
get with It,"
The principal suspect in the Guy
N. Dernier murder case hurled that
defi at officers who sought to ques-
ton him, II was learned today. And
then by way OF paradox the suspect
left town overnight.
But he left his attorney. one Of the
States biggest lawyers, on the Job
here. And that attorney, lolling
comfortably in his swivel chair to-
day, placidly smiled and told the Of
ficers:
"I don't care whether you arrest
my client. In fact, wish you would.
He'd sue you for so much money
you'd spend all the rest of your lives
paying the bill. Why. say, II habeas
corpus that man out OF Jail before
you ever got him in. I'd have all
the public support In Phoenix. You'd
never get him to trial. And pre-
suming you did. you couldn't convict
him in q million years. Now go
ahead and arrest him. Good day"
And that was that. The attorney
10 a man whose name spells power
all through Arizona, and that the
suspect Is q man whose business
reaches out to every corner of his
desert State.
And back OF the challenge, as the
lawyer talked. the officers on the
case could vision the real power
the smart young set which dances in
pajamas, trades wives, knows the
boottleggers by their first names and
never talks. And so the case is in
that critical stage where two camps,
alert. watchful. each waits for the
other to move.
The suspect remains absent. So
does his wife, although 1t is general
ly believed she is in Phoenix. Her
big car has been seen on the streets
at night. but during the daytime IL
vanishes. Her apartment is dark,
with shades drawn.
Three weeks ago. before she fitted
away on one of her strange excur-
sions out of town. she agreed to come
to the sheriff's office one afternoon
and make a statement. She never
appeared. Within five hours she
was out Of town.

NNED BABIES ARE CHIEF SUFFERERS In DOMESTIC TRAGEDIES
All This Happens In
New York, Not
Winsted

NEW YORK, Oct, a.
Spring has come again-in New
York at least. A robin was
reported today from Central
Park. Blue birds and thrushes
are thick as mosquitoes in
Bronx Park. In City Hall
Park the grass is green and the
trees have begun to bud. It
is all On account of the hot
wave and rain storms of the
past week. 1t is more like
April than October.
Here are some of the latest
developments in this unusual
situation:
Squash vines have begun to
blossom in the garden of
Thomas jenkins. on Staten
Island.
A Ben Davis apple tree in
the yard of o. ]. Schneider, at
Bellmore, Long Island, is in
full bloom.
Easter lilies are in bloom in
the garden of Mrs. Frank Nc
Afee, in Brooklyn.
Lima beans are sprouting al

is also opposed to invasions of the

considerable quarrel with trades

coerviCe. He is not going to cure
that evil by bringing in something
more cOercivt-namely, government.
Beveridge is certainly not pro.
gressive in the La Toilette sense;
he is certainly not conservative
in the Cummins sense. Both La
Toilette aud Cummins would lring

purposes than Beveridge.
Beveridge is for keeping the Gov.
ernment out. He is especially ket n
for keeping II as much as possible
out Of the pockets of taxpayers.
On that general philosophy. Bcv.
eridge carried the Indiana Repub-

gaining great audiences and long

William Giberson let his wife man.

While District Attorney Jayne carl
catured the portrait of an unusually
obedient husband. Mrs. Giberson
completely managed the long table
OF lawyers gathered to save her from
the death penalty.
Expect Short Trial.
Following the quick selection oc
the jury both the prosecution and de.
tense predicted a record trial for
shortness. There was only one vital
question put to the Jurors. 1t was:
DO you believe in capital punish
ment?"
Justice Kalisch interfered with the
opinion that objection to the death
penalty does not necessarily excuse
a talesman from service unless II is
accompanied by conscientious
scruple.
The result Is that two talesmen
who stated they cannot vote the
death penalty were sworn into the
box. This gave rise to the report
that the State will be satisfied with
less than the death penalty. A fre.
quent comment is:
You can't hang a woman in New
Jersey"
No Women On Jury.
Because there are no separate nc.
commodations for women Jurors,
should there be an overnight discus.
sion OF the verdict, women on the
tales list were excused.
The States address to the tnry
claimed that Mrs. Giberson often got
her husband to leave town by various
ruses and that she created" ficti-
tious Federal jobs for him.,
Mrs. Giberson, who claims her
husband was shot by burglars. is
also accused of being friendly with
Harold Ganun a Brooklyn rontrac-
tor. The prosecutor inferred that

2-CENT DRAFT SENT TO

LYNN. Mass, Oct. IA draft for
2 cents was mailed yesterday by the
Manchester Trust Company from
Salem to Germany for the return of
two cameras owned by Milton w.
Grinnell, of Philadelphia, formerly of
Salem. and Arthur G. Ericsson, of
Manchester. The draft more than
covers the twenty-five and twenty.
two pfennigs demanded by the Ger.

The two Americans were held pris.
oners in Germany before the United

cameras seized. Last May Ericsson

and IL he gets back to washington
and ! herewith proceed TO do so.
| must first say, however, thai In
his public speech today there was
one theme which WAS immensely
more popular than any other Tn riDe
which he happened TO broach. HIS au'
dience was composed OF, people froih
a town of a population OF about 5'oC9'
They listened attentively enough
and, in fact, extremely attentiNeiV
and studiOusly. TO his long lecture on
the economics Of railroading. Most of
his speech consisted OF that lecture.
The audience liked II. But 1t burst
into clamors of applause on just one
point. And that point was not rail.
reading. And it was not strikes
And II was not even taxes. 1t was
foreign affairs.
This audience Of this small
Western town was passionately In.
terested in foreign affairs. 1t was
passionately Interested in them in
exactly the same way in which a
man who Is being chased by a tiger
is passionately interested in the tiger.
This audience was enthusiastically

MIR. Beveridge would say:
From this time forward let us
forever keep out of all EurOpe's y
quarrels, intrigues and wars"
Instant explosions of cheers.
The dear people who are in favor
of the League of Nations are the in.
nOcent tools OF the international
financiers OF London and New York.
Renewed and improved cheers.
And after a while Mr.. Beveridge
said:
These, European countries can
not pay us what they owe us. But
they can raise armies and make
wars tell you the money which
they owe us can and must and shall
and will be paid. We will collect 1t
down to the last cent Supreme
cheers Of the evening.
The next most popular sort of
statement in this speech of MIR.
BeveI1dge's in this typical Ohio val
ley town was on the subject of the
desirability Of less government in
the United States. Mr.. Beveridge
gave the railroad trades unions a
.ong turn at the fire. He broiled
en- down. He accused them of try.
ing to give themselves an especially
favored position financially at the
expense of all other groups Of people
in the country. Criticised them just.
ly and also as thought-unjustly.
He was as violent against the
railroad trades unions as he had
been against international bankers.
But what did he propose to do
against tho railrOad trades unions?
He proposed to get rid of the
Adamson "eight-hour basic day
law and get rid also Of every other
governmental railroad intervention
and interference which can be pos.
sibly got rid Of.
In conversation afterwards, he
reiterated and amplified this point.
He wants to abolish the railroad
labor board totally. He denounces

OSBORNE TELLS Of.
CHRISTIAN DUTIES

WARRINGTON, Nov. 1s.-Dr.
A. v. 2. Osborne, "shiek shand.
the Camel Driver of India" held
his audience spell-bound for more
than an hour in the First NJ, =.
Church last night while he told
OF the struggle Of the population
OF Indian for Christianity.
Doctor Osborne declared that
India does not need religion, be-
cause the people are at present
the most religious people Of the
world. What they need" he
said, "is Christ and Christianity. d"
He stated that at present there
are a million people waiting and
clamoring for admittance into the
Christian faith and for baptism,
but assured the people here that
the funds at present available for
this work is inadequate. He urged
that the centenary fund be raised
Immediately, and that people
should not hesitate to run beyond
the amount asked for.
Some OF tho stories told by
Doctor Osborne OF the life in In
dia were extremely touching, and
showed that he was familiar with
oil phases Of the native life. One
cent a day. he said, will serve 10
keep alive some little native
child, and he said that often when
eating at American tables this
thought camc to him when he saw
the side dishes offered here.
A number Of the stories he told
ls:t night showed tho terrible lack
lot funds and missionary supply,
both of which are unable to meet
tho demands OF the thousands who
are asking for aid. His descrip-
tion Of the worship given to more
than three hundred million gods
in Indian lent emphasis to his
words.
Doctor Osborne was born of
American parents in the famous
tiger jungles" of India, but has
been given degrees from some OF
the highest colleges. He has
spent his life In teaching the peo-
pie Of India and other idol-wor-
shipping nations, ard Is In Ameri-
ca now in the interest OF mis-
slonary work.
