The Assembly Republicans also de-

power to appoint deputies to investigate
election frauds and prevent crimes

MONTREAL, Feb. 1.-THE Rev. Ade-
lard Dclormc, Catholic priest, was
arrested tonight on charge of hav-
ing murdered his half-brother, Raoul
Delorme, an ottawa University stu
dent. whose body was found in sub
urb of the city January with SIX
bullet holes In the head.
Father Delorme. who had been un-
der police guard all day, was taken
into custody after a Coroner's jury
completing it's investigation. had found
him criminaly responsible for his
brothers death.
The long missing will Of the student
who took out $4,000 insurance at the
alleged direction of the clergyman just
four days before his death, was found
to-day i'm the office of Notary Belanger
and disclosed that the Rev. Delorme
was chief heir and administrator OF
the estate.
The hearing to-day. at which Father
Delorme took the witness stand and
calmly related what he knew of his
brothers movements on the day preced-
ing his death was filled with tense
moments. The priest went over the
previous account he had given of how
the young man had left home for an
evenings enjoyment after which he did
not see him again.
The excitement was intensified when
]. c. Walsh, VI. p. conducting the in
qu,ry. began to question the priest about
his brothers will which had been mis-
sing until to-day. although police had
searched for the document.
Father Delorme stated that the will
had been left at the office of local
notary and when 1t was produced he
suggested that It should not be read,
contending that should II be found he
would benefit by its terms his position
would b. peculiar"
The contents of the will then were
divulged and by its provisions Father
Delorme was found to be the principal
beneficiary of the dead students estate.

Will Allow Constance, 16,
to Give Up Music.

Constance Hulsmann, aged is, who
home at 153 VOLTS lane, Pelham, was
found yesterday in the New Haven
Railroad station at Stamford, Conn.
She said she had become a servant girl
rather than continue piano lessons
which had become drudgery to her
The girl lad been working for Mrs,
Bramon In Sound Beach, and had gone
to Stamford to thank a young boot
black wLo had befriended her when
she was without money or job.
The girl went under the name of Mary

cara particularly for her job of securing
kitchen pots and pans, she felt that u
was preferable to banging away on the
keys of piano. 1t was Jimmy the
Bootblack who told her where to go to
get the job. and II was Jimmy the Boot
black also who gave her enough money
to keep her the first night she was I'm
Stamford. before she had job and
when she was rather frightened at be-
ing away from home.
1t is unlikely that the girl will have
to run away again because she dislikes
taking piano lessons. or for any other
reasons. She was turned over yesterday
to her parents, who told her that so
long as she lived she never would have
to touch a piano again unless she wanted
to. Her father. Frederick Hulsmann, a

might not have found her IL the girl
had not felt impelled to go down TO

When Constance went into the station
at Stamford she found that Detective
James Heffernan was waiting for her.
She called to the young Italian boot
black. who was standing near by:
Jimmie. don't let them take me back.
Please. Jimmie. save me from them! |"
But the bookblack did not interfere.
When DR.. Hulsmann started to search
for his sister he found that Carl Pierson
OF Mayopac. who had known her. had
received letters from the girl, one OF
which. he said, intimated that she
might go away with a young Italian
fellow who had made my acquaintance. !"
Pierson and DIR. Hulsmann were in
Stamford yesterday when Constance was
found. az also was Mrs. Mabel Cook.

The child is all right" said Mrs.
Cook. We'll take her back home and
