! DENIED IN
aging;
Mrs. Willow on Trial Charged
With Urging Boy Sweet
heart to Kill Husband
By WIN SWEENEY,
International News Service.

MIDDLEBuRG, Pa, Oct. 13s-
In low voice and with eyes
downeast, Mrs. Annie Willow,
charged with first degree murder
in connection with the Staying Of
her husband, Harvey Willow,
pleaded not guilty to the indict-
ment before Judge Miles l. Pot
ter today. Selection Of a jury
was Immediately begun.
While the woman was making
her plea, her seven-year-old daugh-
ter, Ida, sat in the courtroom, her
big blue eyes filled with tears.
The defendant wept when her
son, Glenn, eleven, came in court.
Shot By Sweetheart
Mrs. Willow is alleged to have
instigated Ralph Shaded. her eigh-
teen-year-old sweetheart, to shoot
her husband while they were in
the woods hunting.
Contrary to expectations change
of venue was not asked.
It had been intimated that de-
Tense counsel feared to put their
client on trial before a Snyder
county jury because of the bitter
feeling.
Son Draws Tears.
Mrs. Willow began weeping as
her eleven-year-old son, Glenn,
entered the court accompanied by
Ralph Kratzer, brother. She re-
gained her composure Immediately
and resumed her staring at the
floor.
Selection Of a jury was immedi.
ately begun.
Indicted for first degree murder
by grand jury last Monday, the
woman. through her counsel, chose
a separate trial rather than stand
Jointly with her youthful lover.
Shaded has been convicted Of
second-degree murder and will soon
begin his twenty-year term in East
ern penitentiary. He has a chance
Of being released for good behavior
at the end Of ten years.
Staying Was Brutal.
Aroused by the brutality OF the
murder Of Harvey Willow by Shaded
last December, the entire county
followed with interest the progress
of the boys trial. But It was am
interest toned with pity pity for a
mere boy who was continually mic.
tured as a slave to the woman's
destinations
I Indirect contrast is the attitude
Of the country folk Today. Few
have compassion on the wife who
proved unfaithful-fewer still on the
woman whose confession admits she
urged Ralph to get rid Of HIM
her husband. Even her parents,
after her confession, refused to have
anything to do with her. Since,
however, they have forgiven and
have raised a fund to nelp pay the
expense OF their daughters defns.
AS in Shadel's trial a confession
will be the trump card of the prose-
cution. The boys signed admission
Of the clandestine meetings and the
impassioned love affair which termi-
mated in the staying was admitted
as evidence. District Attorney Ar
thur X. Miller said he has a similar
confession from Mrs. Willow.
According to the prosecutor, Mrs.
Willow confessed ten days after her
arrest early in August.
Hes lying! He's lyingv' the wo.
man cried when told Shaded had
made clean breast Of the Staying,
This was the day after the boy con-
fessed, on August 8. For% over q
week she stuck to her story that she
was innocentl than abe broke down.

With the collapse here Of the first

Thus far 1t has resulted In muir

Another Murder.
Another murder-this one over

to remind Chinatown that the Hip

LEADERS
FLEE:
Foreign Forces Put On Guard
Around Legations in
. Shanghai
International News Service.
BY BERT KUHN,

SHANGHAI, Chinh Oct 18s
All available foreign defense units,
including the Shanghai volunteer
corps, the police reserves and
contingents from the twenty-four
foreign war craft now in the har-
Dor here, were ordered out today
to guard the boundaries Of the
foreign settlement in anticipation
of a general retreat on the city
of 10000 disorganized Chekiang
soldiers following the decision Of
their leaders to surrender.
Confusion in Field.
The widest confusion prevails in
the field. No provisions were made
for the surrender OF the Chekiang
forces and fighting is still going
on at Huang Tu, the troops being
unaware Of their leaders surrender.
Thousands Of civilian refugees
are floclxing into the city, fearing
the coming horde Of leaderless
soldiers.
One report stated that Chang rSe
Ping, in command Of the Chekiang
forces in the field, would refuse to
recognize the surrender announced
by Lu Yung Hsiang and Ho Feng
Lin, and is now reorganizing his lines
for final stand fifteen miles from
Shanghai.
Despite statements issued by Gen.
erals Lu and Ho that they had
decided upon surrender in order to
avert the inevitable destruction Of
life and property that would have
followed a battle at the gates Of
this city, the opinion prevails here
that they feared rebellion OF their
troops following the alleged bribery
Of subordinates.
Both Seek Refuge.
General Ho sought refuge in a
residence in the French concession,
and Lu also took up his residence,
which he maintains in the interna.
tional settlement.
Wounded continue to pour in
from the front, fifty arriving this
morning.
The foreign forces, including
American marines and sailors, have
formed a complete Gordon about
the international settlement.
All soldiers will be disarmed who
attempt to enter and every effort
will be made to prevent looting in
the native city.

quaintance with the travelling pub
lie, and during the active years OF

| friends. Mr.. Gould, senior, died in
February, 1913.
Mrs. Gould leaves four sons, Frank
H., proprietor of the Hancock House,

Counting by Tens,

Our system of counting by tens
started ages ago when men counted
on their fingers. Because they had
ten fingers, numbering on their
hands made a unit of counting, and
that was the beginning of the decimal
system. count on their fingers and
toes resulted in twenty and thus the
checking off of things by scores began.

Commission Sets Price Of s25,- 900 On Third Ave. Property

Hill Ferguson. reaitor. was given ex- elusive right for q period of 30 days to handle the sale of two lots owned by the city on Third avenue facing the municipal market.
 The commission set price of $21,- 900 each on the lots.
 Agent for adjoining property. Mir. Ferguson had held three other lots for the city when the proposal to establish an open air market was under consid- eration. The five lots constitute about quarter of the block bounded by Third and Fourth avenues and Twenty second and Twenty third strets. The two municipal lots. both inside property and not adjoining each other. were purchased by the city some time ago as nucleus for the open air market.
 The idea of an open far market was abandoned when group of farm CTS of Jefferson county petitioned the city to cancel the plan as such a mar ket would be in competition with the open air market established by the farmers near the Terminal station.
