PUSHCART VENDORS
WIN RIGHT TO SELL
Judges Decision Reopens
Congested Area After Com
misSioners Ruled 1t Closed.

Pushcart vendors, prohibited by
recent police regulation from selling
their products in the so-called con-
gested area, and who have been ar
rested numerous times for it's viola
tion, today won their fight for the
right to enter this zone. Judge
Mcmahon today handed down an
opinion which in effect said that the
Commissioners exceeded their author
ity promulgating such a regulation.
The contention of counsel for de-
PENDANTS was that they are licensed
street vendors and as such are en-
titled to sell their goods wherever
they can find customers and as such
licensed vendors the District of CO.
lumbia Commissioners are without
authority, in their official capacity, to
make regulation that excluded them
from the public streets in the prose-
cution Of their business; that if such
a regulation is enforced that the de-
PENDANTS would be deprived Of their
licensed right. as authorized in their
licenses. for which the District of
Columbia government demands the
payment of $3.50 annually. This
contention is upheld by Judge Nc
Mahon. rs
There will be no more arrests of
these street vendors when they make
their appearance in the restricted
', zone. They have returned to that
district on hearing of the decision Of
the court and are selling. Should any
of them be arrested for violating this
regulation and be brought to. court
the case will be dismissed. However,
1t Is not likely that the opinion of the
court will be ignored by the police.

PITTSBURGH NURSE
Confesses Murder in 1895
Agreement to Danish
'Love Ills"
BY the Associated Press.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, October S.-Miss
Elsie Barthel, twenty y-eight-year-ol
nurse, was killed by Alonzo Savage,
negro voodoo doctor. when she re-
fused to give him 1895 for curing her
love ills" according to a confession
which city detectives said the negro
made early today. The confession,
according to Captain of Detectives
Louis Left, was made after Savage
was taken to the scene Of the crime
shortly after midnight.
Under the glare of automobile head
lights, Caot. Loft said, Savage re-en-
acted in detaff his movements when he
met the nurse beneath the portico of
a deserted East End mansion.
Crushed with Marble Block.
The negro confessed, Capt. Left said.
that he struck the nurse in the face
when she grabbed the money out Of
his hand; felled her with a brick and
then dropped seventy-pound block
of marble on her head. AS she fell
Miss Barthel cried. 'I'll give 1t to
you,' Savage Is said to have told the
detectives, but the negro dropped to
the outside of the portico and pushed
wall, crushing the victims head.
Details of the confession made
public by Detective Left recited how
Miss Barthel met Savage while they
We're employed by an East End physi-
clan, the woman as a nurse and the
negro as a butler. The nurse learned
of Savage's ability as fortune
teller" and approached him when she
had difficulties with her sweetheart.
Savage gave her six cards, held to-
gether by a black pin, and told her
the, charm" would work If she re-
turned the cards to him and paid him

under the portico late that night and
Miss Barthel handed Savage the
cards and an envelope containing the
money. When Savage announced that

Then foliowed~<he killing.
Cards Lead to Arrest.
Savage picked up the money. but
in his haste he dropped the blood
marked cards. 1t was these cards
that led the police to arrest the but
ler. In his home they said they found
deck of cards with six missing. The
cards found near the body completed
the deck, Capt. Left declared.
Walter Haule, a taxfcab driver, and
friend of Miss Barthel, was taken to
central police station for questioning.
spied Savage, who was being held as
a suspect. Haule then identified
Savage as the negro he had carried
in his cab to the east district on Sat
urday night. Savage up to that time
had maintained his innocence, but
when Haule confronted him the negro

Officials to Renew Activities.

PARIS, October S.-Negotiations be-
tween representatives of German in
6ustrial groups and the Franco-B Bel
Eian authorities of occupation, look
dng toward complete resumption of
work in the Ruhr and deliveries in
hind on reparation account, ARE in
q fair way to succeed, it was said at
1.-THE French foreign Office today.
Three groups have been represent
sd thus far in the conversations at
1uesseldorf-the SHINES -Glockhein,
she otto Wolff -Kapp and the Won
Nlissingen groups. The results of
these conferences, when they reach a
stage promising the actual resump-
ZION of reparation deliveries will nee
essarily be referred first to the al
lied governments engaged in the
Iuhr occupation and then to the Brit
ash government and to the repara-
tions commission.
With regard to the recent speech
pf Lord Curzon, the British foreign
fecretary before the imperial con-
ain was awaiting the next French
move. 1t was declared that France
had no proposals to make to Great
Britain. The proposals, it was de-
slared, must come from Germany
When they do come they will be sub
mitted to the British Government as
matter of courtesy in any event
and as matter of right in case they
involve other phases of the repara-
tIon problem than the occupation OF
the Ruhr, in which Great Britain is
not interested.
n chilly reception has been given
the speech of Chancellor Stresemann
in the Reichstag on Saturday in Paris
official circles. It is considered to
have been strange blending of
humility and veiled threats and
totally unsuccessful in allaying
French suspicious against Germany
While recognizing the chancellor s
eloquence, parliamentary skill and
courage. it was pointed out in official
quarters today that his attitude to-
ward the nationaliSts and Bavaria
remained equivocal
The belief was expressed that the
new German cabinet. after it has OBJ
tanned full powers and dissolved the
reichstag, may develop into a dicta-
torship of the parties of the right
after all the socialists are dropped
and replaced by nationalists
1t was said today that the speech
of the chancellor would strengthen
French opinion that Berlin needs
watching as closely as ever
