by District Attorney Banton. Assistant
District Attorney Hastings and Joseph

Special Dispatch to THE New YonK HERALD
NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., Oct. 2S.--
What is there l can say. I wasn't
there. i know wasn't on the Phillips
farm that night. I know I wasn't
there. but they probably won't believe
me-"
In her own home. with women rela-
tives and other friends about her, Mrs
Frances N. Hall, widow Of the Rev.
Edward w. Hall, made this statement
tnts afternoon. Her explanatory
statement came after her lawyer,
Timothy N. Pfeiffer, had gone over
with her the latest statement of Mrs.
Jane Gibson, the woman farmer who
contends she was an eyewitness to
the murder. The incident was re-
peated later by friend of the family.
II know did not witness the terri
BILE murder Of my husband and, Mrs.
Mills" went on Mrs. Hall. For my
own part I have been a figure in this
community for many years. have
been honorable. Doesn't a persons
past count for anything?"
Then as the conversation went on
as it would in such household at
such time, Mrs. Hall said: II loved
my husband. 1 lived for him and he
lived for me-"
stiIl Believes In Him.
Il still believe in him absolutely. II
he were here know that Edward could
explain those letters and the diary. ]
know he could explain. know that he
could justify my belief in him II he were
living. Nothing can shake my faith;
nothing"
This was substantially all OF the direct
statements of Mrs. Hall that the friend
OF tho family could recall. The friend
went on to tell something about the
inner workings Of the household
Mrs. Hall has been living almost in
seclusion. many OF her household re-
sponsibilities having been taken Off her
shoulders by her confidant and friend
Miss Sally Peters. She has taken only
one automobile ride since the tragedy.
She Is much alone. She remains in bed
in the morning and has her breakfast
served to her.
1t is then she is most lonely. To
quote the friend who visited her to-day I:
"She is not vindictive. She is behaving
like a natural Christian woman. She
is not like a person who has something
on her minS. Were she the cleverest
woman in the world. and she is not that,
she could not >act rsssre naturally.
She is simply a minister's wife. Moth
Ing can ever convince her that her hus-
band was interested In another woman.
She had never suspected him and she
does not now believe the stories that
have been told of him. She finds her
self cut off from church life and nat
urally she is human enough to feel her
present position"

TOryism of Deepest Purple to
Faintest Radical Pink
in Spectrum.
PRESS Is NONCOMMITTAL
Seek in Soul for Principles,
Says One, Failing to
Define Them.

Special Cable TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.

New York Herald Bureau.
London. Oct. 2S.
II the election of 1918 was khaki
election" this one is rainbow cleo
ton" II includes every color of per-
sonality and principle from the most
purple Toryism to the pinkest radical
ism. And while it is possible to define
the colors clearly enough, at many
points in the spectrum it is wholly i'm
possible to tell where one ends and the
other begins.
Sir Robert Horne and Viscount Bir-
kenhead joined the Asquithian Liber-
ais on the Lloyd George platform at
Glasgow to-day. and they are all going
to have a great powwow in the Earl
of Balfour's home in Whittingeharhe
over the week end. Likewise. notwith-
standing the expected official denials
from party headquarters. local dickers
continue to be made by the Conserva-
tives 10 stop both kinds of Liberals.
The press also assumes the colors OF
the spectrum. Even the pontifcal James
Garvin in the Observer confesses that
he cannot advise any man how to vote,
though he heads his three column en-
cyclical Whats wrong and how to
right IT," Almost everything about the
coalition Government which he sup
ported so faithfully is wrong, but the
only way TO right it. according to Gar
win, Is for each Individual voter to search
his own soul and the soul of the candi-
dates presented for his vote for 'prin-
ciples." though Garvin Is encouragingly
vague as to what particular principles
he means other than sweetness and light
generally.

GLASGOW, Oct. 2S.-David Lloyd
George to-day abandoned his attitude
of defense and, for the first time since
the fall of his Coalition Ministry. took
the offensive and aroused the en-
thusiasm of 5000 auditors who packed
st. Andrews Hall. His rapierlike
thrusts at the Opposition and its policy
of folded arms and drowsy eyes as
we'll as his red hot defense of his own
Government and his appeal for re-
turn to unity awakened an enthusiastic
response.
Mr. Lloyd George deplored what he
called the dropping Of the most brill
liant men in the country from leader
ship when the successors had no new
policy. and scoffed at the personnel Of
the new Cabinet. exclaiming: Look
at them!" which provoked loud laugh
