PHYSICIAN ACCUSED
OF DOUBLE MURDER
DR.. McCracken Held as Slayer
of Mrs. Richwine and Father
in-Law in East st. Louis.

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HrRALp
EAST ST. LOUIS, ILL.,, Jan. 18.-Justice
of the Peace w. J. Kane of East st.
Louis issued two warrants to-day charg-
ing Dr. Robert X McCracken, former
Coroner of st. Clair county and at one
time Health Commissioner of East st.
Louis, with the murder of Mrs. Clara
Richwine and her father-in-law. William
Richwine. who were found shot to death
last Monday in their home just beyond
the city limits.
The warrants were served on DR.. Nc
Cracken in the East st. Louis "hold
over" where he has been a prisoner
since his arrest yesterday morning.
Under the Illinois law defendants in
murder cases cannot be released on bail
without habeas corpus proceedings, and
attorneys for DR.. McCracken immediate
ly asked for writ. It was granted by
Judge Silas Cook OF the City Court. and
DIR. McCracken was released on 5000
bail. Acting States Attorney Hilmer c.
Lindhauer objected. but refused to di-
vulge the nature Of the evidence the
State has against the physician.

BRITISH HAND OYER
THE CASTLE TO IRISH

with the British officials on the details
including the time, for the turning over
of each function to the Irish Free State
Government. A royal order in council
probably will be necessary to legalize
the transfer of property and funds, but
this will be forthcoming without delay
as soon as the details are arranged in
London. while Mr.. Collins and his col
leagues will sit in Dublin actually ex-
ercising power as Governors of Ireland
in the name of the Irish nation.
They can even decide matters of the
broadest policy within the limits de-
fined in the treaty. They might con-
stitute an entire police system, for in
stance. But 1t is likely that they will
go very slowly until the constitution is
framed and the final government
chosen as result of the election which
Arthur Griffith promised the Dali
Eireann would be held. Mr.. Collins is
sued statement tonight that all de-
partments would 70 on for few days
unchanged.
One difficulty In the way of actually
setting up the Government in Dublin
Castle is that Arthur Griffith and Rich
ard Mulcahy promised Ean1on dc Valera
before the Dali adjourned that the Dali
Government and funds and the Repub-
lican army would not be used except in
support of the Republic. and they are
therefore unavailable for the service OF
the provisional Government. When the
Castle Is evacuated by the Crown in the
next few days the civil departments will
go on there under the protection of the
Dublin Metropolitan police, the Irish Re-
publican army not replacing either the
military or the Royal Irish Constabulary
guards.
The necessity for police fierce here
Is demonstrated every day. It was
shown to-day when q sharp row occurred
just outside the gates of Dublin Castle
after the ceremony. A lorry flying a
tiny Union Jack started to nose ats way
through a pressing crowd of women,
boys and idlsrs when some one sratched
the flag. The auxiliaries and soldiers
lounging there naturally would not stand
for that and they pitched in. Before
order was restored one woman was in
jured and sent to a hospital.
Otherwise also the provisional Gov
erIiment had its hands full. Extremist
labor leaders tried to call an outlaw
railway strike this morning and sue
cecded in getting few men at one ter
minal to quit, but the strike was nipped
in the bud elsewhere. Some of Mr..
Grifflth's supporters charged this to the
extremist supporters of Countess Mar
kievicz, who was Minister Of Labor in
Mr.. de Valera's Cabinet. saying they
were trying to make the provisional
Government impossible. The charge
was Indignantly repudiated in circles
close to Mr.. de Valera, where it was de-
clared they were keeping their pledge of
neutrality and are confining their ef-
forts strictly to the field of political
against the settlement
The entire spirit of the ceremony at
Dublin Castle this morning was excel
lent. Viscount Fitzalan heartily congrat-
uIating Mr.. Collins on his initial success
of his Government in averting the rail-
way strike and wishing him the best Of
luck in future efforts. Mr. Collins re-
piled in courteous kind.

until otherwise ordered by the Pro-
visional Government. pending the con-
stitution of the Parliament Of the Free
State, without prejudice to the full and
further exercise by that Parliament OF
all its powers.
A statement issued at the Castle this
afternoon said:
"In the council chamber o fthe Cas-
tie this afternoon the Lord Lieutenant
received Michael Collins as head OF the
Provisional Government provided for In
Article XVII. Of the treaty Of December
6. Mr.. Collins handed the Lord Lieut.
tenant copy or the treaty on which
acceptance of its provisions by himself
and his colleagues had been indorsed,
and the other members OF the Provision
al Government were then introduced.
"The Lord Lieutenant congratulated
Mr.. Collins and hin colleagues. and in
formed them that they were now duly
installed as the Provisional Government
and that in conformity with Article
XVII. OF the treaty he would at once
communicate with the British Govern
ment in order that the necessary steps
might be taken for the transfer to the
Provisional Government OF the powers
and machinery requisite for the dis
charge of its duties. He expressed the
earnest hope that under their auspices
the ideal Of a happy, free and prosperous
Ireland would be attained"

resentatives of all shades of public opin-

istence before January 81, with the res
ervation that the enlistment of volun-

non-cooperators would blame him for
succumbing to the Establishments of the
moderates. but that he desired his fell

It is said the bill will have strong backing from all parts of the state The moneys paid in through the two taxes will be placed in the county 75 per cent fund. while at present it is allotted to the state engineer to spend where he chooses.
