TAKE NEW TRAIL
IN MURDER CASE
Lead That Rector and Singer Muir
dered Behind Sohoolhousc Four
Miles From Phillips Farm
Being Followed.
By GERALD p. OVERTON.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent }
New Brunswick, N. j., Oct. 19.-
Prosecutor Beekman dropped out OF
sight during the night and was re-
ported to be questioning suspect
secretly, In connection with the
murder OF the Rev. Edward w. Hall
and Mrs. Eleanor Mills.
This is Understood to have fol-
lowed disclosures that the rector
and his choir singer sweetheart
were slain in cold blood behind n
school house four miles from the
abandoned Phillips farm where their
bodies were found.
These new secret tactics OF the
prosecution were adopted because,
attorneys. newspaper reporters inter.
ferred with their investigation.
A number of detectives who have
been working on the case as well as
several state police, disappeared the
same time as Beekman.
Two new witnesses-the owner of
bus line and an employe of Rut-
gers college-have come forward
with testimony that they heard a
woman shrieking for mercy behind
the school house on the Red Bank
road about 10:30 p. m. September
IA. They heard the heard the wo-
man cry Help" "Poiee!" and
Don't murder mel" A big automo
bile was discerned standing in the
darkness by the side of the road
near the school house. A few min
utes later this automobile passed
them at terrific speed, 1t is the
theory of the authorities that at
that time the big car was being
used to carry the bodies of the
slain couple to the Phillips farm.

New Orleans, Oct. 19.-The Amer
lean Legion is finding Il difficult
to select new national commander
to succeed Hanford MacNider.
A dozen candidates are in the
field but none have developed
enough strength to assure his cleo
tion.
The election Friday was the prin-
cipal topic of discussion as the con-
vention went into session today.
Supporters of VIM. f. Deegan of
New York, were confident that he
will win. but other candidates in
sisted that Deegan's assured strength
was not more than twenty per cent
of the sthousand votes. His candi-
dacy has been complicated by his
row with Col G. r. Forbes, director
of the United States Veterans Bu-
reau, which resulted in Forbes de-
parture and the cancellation Of his
engagement to speak before the con-
vention.
Deegan's principal campaign med
icine has been his attack on the
Veterans Bureau.
II was reported that Franklin d.
OLier past national commander,
was ready to advance the name of
General James A. Drain, of Wash
ington, d. G. Drain has been com
mander of that department and a
member of the rehabilitation de-
partment.
Paul A. Martin, Of Michigan, who
gained prominence in a fight for a
tubercular hospital in Michigan, is
one of the newer candidates an
nounced.
A caucus of southern states dis
cussed Mat Murphy, commander of
Alabama; Alvin M Owsley, Of Tex
as; T. S. Walmsley, OF Louisiana
and George L. Berry of Tennessee.
Colonel Joseph H. Thompson of
Pennsylvania is another "favorite
son.
"A. A. Sprague, of Chicago, chair
man of the rehabilitation commit
tee. another candidate was to re-
turn home today
The departure of Forbes caused
wide discussion among the dele
gates and may be considered on
the floor. Before he left, Forbes
wrote a letter to Commander Mac
Nider explaining he was leaving be-
cause of repeated accusations that
he was sent here by the administra-
tion to "play politics" When in
reality he came at the invitation of
the legion to assist them in work.

The charge was made by Deegan
and others.
Forbes talked to President Hard.
ing on long distance telephone be.
fore he left, and it was reported
the president had recalled him be
cause he 'muddled" the administra'
tion's cause. But those close to
Forbes insisted the president told
him to do as he pleased in view oi
the developments.
Legionnaires also were interested
in the collapse of the promised at
tack on Brigadier General Sawyer
for alleged interference in hospital
ization. The reason for this, it was
learned was that Chairman Spragut
of the rehabilitation committee made
peace with Sawyer and is ready t.
defend rather than denounce him
Sawyer was said to have signed ;
paper agreeing to carry out the lie
gion's program.

London, Oct. 19.-The Unionist
caucus, meeting at the Carlton club
today. voted 1856 to 81 in favor of
appealing to the country at a gem
eral election as united Consorva-
tive party.
The vote carried with 4 lie par
ty's announced intention OF having
a conservative premier II successful
at the polls.
This amounts TO n reputation OF
the coalition government and OF
Lloyd George unless the prime min
lister will definitely announce him
self as a conservative.
At present. although head Of the
coalition government. Lloyd George
Is considered liberal.
The Unionist vote, according to
authorities, means that Lloyd George
will probably resign, the premier
having indicated this would be his
action II the Unionist caucus failed
to support Chamberlain who stood
for the coalition.
Several hundred of Lloyd Georges
political foes hooted and jeered OH
the sidewalk as Austen Chamber
lain's handpicked Unionist caucus
met inside the exclusive Carlton
club at IL a. m. today.
The "die hards members of tho
Unionist party who are opposed to
continuation of support of the coali-
tion government of which Lloyd
George Is gathered in front
of the ultrarespectable club and
staged demonstrations against Cham
berlain and Sir Robert Horne,
svowed supporters Of the prime
minister, when they entered.
"Judas!" was the cry that went
up as Lord Birkenhead alighted
from his car and hurried to the
shelter of the club.
Today's meeting of the Unionist
or Conservative party was brought
about as the result OF the political
crisis caused by the policies of the
Georgian government both at home
and in the Near East.
Bonar Law, one of the "die hards"
believed unfavorable to continued
support of Lloyd George but who
has made no statement to that eff
feet, was cheered as he was recog-
nized at the door of the Carlton
club.
Only members Of parliament who
espouse the Unionist cause and con-
servative cabinet members were in.
vited to the Chamberlain meeting.
Precautions were taken to pre-
vent any disorders at the citadel of
Chamberlain conservatism. This fol-
lowed the open declarations of J..
M. Erskine and Admiral Suerter con-
servative members of parliament
who did not receive bid to the
meeting, that they would fight
their way in IL not recognized at
the door.
The stewards Of the club were
puzzled on what to say to conser-
vative leaders like the Duke of
Northumberland and the Marquis
of Salisbury who are members of
the club but were unlimited to at
tend the meeting, If they insisted
on being admitted.
Scores of newspaper men from all
over the world were excluded from
the club and busted themselves but

The course that will be taken by

FARMERS FAIR FEATURE
EVENTS OF AG. STUDENTS
Missouri School of Agriculture
Starts Annual Event in Spring
of 1906.

The Farmers Fair, an annual spring
event at the University, from the az
ricultural students view point is the one
day Of the year. Each season elabor-
ate plans are laid and work begins in
preparation several months before the
event takes place.
The idea of the Farmers Fair is to
advertise the College Of Agriculture, to
entertain and TO bring before the many
strangers who visit the University with
the old grads" the important place ag-
riculture holds and always has held in
comparison with other industries.
A few weeks before the date Of the
fair. agricultural students all wear the
regular farmers work clothes, boots, oy-
erals and the rest of the outfit. The
town is also well covered with painted
signs and placards announcing the at
fractions offered.
As the fair is a spring event. the
success of it-largely depends upon the
weather. 1t is usually held as late in
ihe, spring as possible in order to avoid
the rainy season, but this year it was
held on April 7, and it rained all day,
spelling the show and putting the agri-
cultural students $1,000 in debt. The
farmer boys, however, were not to be
at this turn of luck. They or.
ganized and put on the Farmers Fol- !
lies. one of the best student attractions
