"It's Big Doll sweetness" he said,

At eleven o'clock foggy quiet had

Through the wall, deep as the

Following the rejection to-day by the

writ of habeas corpus requiring the
Government to release Erskine Childers
on the ground that the civil court had
no Jurisdiction. his counsel announced
he would take the case to the Court OF
Appeals on Monday. as permitted under
the Irish system. The decision as 1T
stands offers no relief for Childers and
eight other De Valera followers
sentenced to death by military court
for having firearms In their possession
and takes cognlzance Of the existence Of
a state OF war.
THE New YORK HERALD correspondent
was informed that the military authori-
ties had intended to execute Childers
tomorrow morning as the result of the
decision OF the military court. In View
OF the fact that the decision OF the
Master OF the Rolls turned simply on
the premise that a state OF war exists.
the authorities may feel that Childers's
attorneys are merely ''stalling" for time
In making their appeal. and the military
may carry out the sentence tomorrow,
though this is problematcal.

County Prosecutor Radcliffe and Chief
OF Police Wallace said they do not see
how poison could have been adminis-
tered by an outsider. They are WORKING
