ITO All Concerned:
'~The Daughters of the Confederacy
are our mothers (war mothers) and
this is the south. There are no trees
in honor of southern gentlemen in the
capitol yard at Washington and our
war mothers do not want this one
here"
only yesterday the controversy re-
Confederacy objecting to the tree re-
manning in the capitol lawn was
brought to climax by the White
House association present naming a
committee to cooperate with other
Confederate organization in their ef-
forts to have the memorial removed.
The association is a band of women
organized for the purpose of preserv-
ing the original White Hhouse of the
Confederacy, where Jefferson Davis re-
sided when the capitol was located in
Montgomery. The organizations con-
tended it was improper for the me-
mortal to Roosevelt to stand on the
capitol grounds within ear shot of the
place where Davis became president
of the Confederacy.

the bodies of the Rev. Edward w.
Hall, and his choir leader, Mrs.
Eleanor Fl. Mills. under the crab
apple tree on Phillips farm.
The statements made by Mrs. Hall.
Wednesday, when she answered a
long QUESTIONABLE propounded by
as her story for the grand jury, it was
said and it was for this reason that
she was not called today.

James Mills, husband OF the slain
choir singer, visited the scene of the
crime for the first time last night. He
declared then that he thought the au-
failure to arrest all members of both
families imm ediately.
They might have learned some
thing then" he said, but it is too
late now
Mills added that he believed the
eye witness story told by Mrs. Jane

ton road.
Find New Eye Witness.
Deputy Attorney General William A.
Mott has discovered another woman

Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall and his
choir leader, Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt
Mills, according to reports here today.
Her IDENTIFY is said to be known

crime or merely saw the principals
on the Philips farm on the night of
the murder.

Tucson, Ariz, Nov. 3.-In a nom

Pacific to the Atlantic coast, Lieuten-
ants MacReady and Kelly passed over

5:59:55 O'Clock this morning in her
second attempt to span the continent
in one single flight.
LieuteEants Oakley Kelly and Jack
MacReady piloted the plane and de-
clared they would undoubtedly be able
to keep the big monoplane skimming
eastward all of today, tonight and to-
morrow.
They expect to land at Mitchell
field, Mineola, L. L, about o'clock

Fly Over Wichita.
The line of flights will carry them
over Yuma, Ell Paso, San Antonio,
Wichita, st. Louis and Johnstown, Pa.
The first attempt to make the trans
continental flight in one jump was
started last October and abandoned
hundred miles from the starting
point when fog banks blocked their
path thru Temecula Pass, the extreme
weight of the fuel supply making it
impracticable to skim the mountain
crests
On that occasion, however, the
same intrepid pilots remained aloft
over San Diego 35 hours Is minutes
and 80 seconds, smashing the, worlds
sustained flight record by nearly ten
hours They also broke the worlds
lifting record for a single motored
plane when they rose with their total
weight of approximately five tons.

BLAME ON PEGGY
Mrs. Phillips Denies She Struck
Hammer Blows.
Charges Murder of Mrs.
Meadows to Mrs. Caffee.
ADMITS THEY HAD BATTLE
Told Her "She Was the DirtieSt
Woman on Earth.''
Then They Fought Until Peggy
Used the Hammer.

Los Angeles, Nov 3-From the wit
ness stand, Clara Phillips again today
fought her own battle for life in the
same tigerish manner in which she is
alleged to have ended the life of pretty
Alberta Meadows with a hammer last
July.
Time and again the searching cross
examination questions OF Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Charles Fricke ELECTED
only a trivial response or brought
forth a detail unconnected with the
questioning.
She held without wavering to her
story that every move she made in
connection with the death of Mrs
Meadows was made at the suggestion
of Mrs. Peggy Caffee, her chorus girl
friend and confidante, who was the
states star witness against her.
Admits They Fought.
The defendant reiterated on cross
examination that so far as she remem-
bered, she only engaged in a hand-to-
hand encounter with Mrs. Meadows.
She declared that when she found her.
self being beSted in this combat she
called for aid from Mrs. Caffee, who
she declared leaped from the auto
mobile in which they had driven to
the murder scene and struck Mrs.
Meadows over the head with the ham,
mer.
Previously she had told, with con-
siderable emotion, of having accused
Mrs. Meadows of intimacy with her
husband, Armour L. Phillips. "She
denied it at first" Mrs. Phillips testi-
field, "but finally she said, he loves
me and L love him and we are going
away together
Then L told her she was the dirt
lest woman on earth, dirty as a dog.
and then she struck me. Then we

screamed for Peggy. She got Alberta
off of me and struck her with the
hammer. I was trembling and every
thing seemed to go black before my
eyes,
Had Lapse of Memory.
From that moment until she was
awakened in a hotel by her husband
she declared she rememDered nothing
She said she did not recall having ap-
peared in court to have her trial set
The witness was able to recall in the
minutest detail the events of several
days prior to the Staying. Her first
knowledge of the murder, she testi-
fled, was when her husband told her
something had happened and she
must leave the city.
In her direct testimony, Mrs. Phil
lips testified Peggy Caffee purchased
the hammer.
