MURDERED HIS WIFE
F. G. Hutchinson Confesses
the Foul Deed.

On the morning of April 18th the
city papers brought to Wickenburg
news OF the horrible death at Superior
OF Mrs. +. &. Hutchinson by dyna-
mlt- explosion uiider her bed carried
OUT with murderous intent.
Wlckenburg people were aghast at
the awful details and little groups of
our citizens, knowing the very un-
happy existence of Hutchinson and his
wife when living in Wickenburg, with
spontaneous accord in different places
decided that Hutchinson himself must
have been in some way implicated in
the foul deed.
At the local telephone exchange,
where the story was being discussed,
suddenly rushed in Mrs. j. K. Barnette,
choking with emotion and grief at the
unfortunate and untimely end of her
Globe acquaintance and friend. Our
editor knew of suspicious occurrences
as we'll as others and decided where all
were SO naturally and impulsively
agreed, that Hutchinson himself ought
to be vigorously investigated. He &C
cordingly acquiesced In the general
sentiment and volunteered the follow
ing telegram, which he forthwith sent
to the sheriff of Pinal county:
Several people here have re-
quested that you closely inves-
tigate Hutchinson himself in
the death of his wife by explo-
sion at Superior.
When, on the following day, other
Wickenburg people began to learn OF
the details, more sentiment was dew
eloped which told of strange charges
of disloyalty on the part of Hutchin-
son. even to an attempted poisoning OF
his wife while living here; how he
wanted to have their marriage an
nuIled and " Nhen about to be charged
with bigamy consented to second
marriage ceremony after the visit
here of one of his wives of which it is
now claimed he had five.
few days after the above telegram
was sent by our editor. the sheriff OF
Pinal County also received letter
from Judge Riggs which told of Hut.
chlnson's conduct and the charges oft
repeated against him here. Then fol-
lowed statements of Mrs j. Bailey
made in Phoenix few days after the
explosion. All these sentiments and
statements were spontaneous, made
without the knowledge of the other.
anu du COHDi00t1 lnOuCPu SpcNidi NlSlC
of the Sheriff of Pinal County to Wick
enburg, which convinced him enough
to place Hutchinson under surveillance
and final arrest.
The sequel proves that Wickenburg
people are, in a measure at least. i'm
bued with some humane Instincts; are
ready to decry and expose crime and
those things which cheaper morality
despite the modern tendency towards
''doIlar Diplomacy, which everywhere
tries to hide crime and criminals.
Now that the perpetrator of this foul
deed has confessed. let justice be swift
and sure, that the lessons of our fore
fathers and irs corresponding influence
on evil doors may have salutory and
lasting effect.

FRANCE TRIES
DIVISION OF
China, RUSSIA
Joins U. S. In War on
Recognition
Especial to The Daily Worker,

Especial to The Daily Worker)
PEKING, China, April 25.-
France is leading the opposition
in China to official recognition
of Soviet Russia, according to
Rosta News Agency reports.
The Chinese people realize
that the Russians are their
friends, but the Chinese govern
ment is allowing foreign powers,
chiefly France, to influence its
policy in regard to Russia.
Koo Fears Red Troops.
China, thru DR.. Wellington Koo
minister of foreign affairs, protests
against the presence of Soviet Red
Army troops in distant Mongolia, but
seems to fear nothing from the many
friendly" European soldiers walking
Picking streets.
While France demands gold pay
ments of the Boxer war indemnities,
Soviet Russia offers to relinquish her
claims if the money will then be spent
on education in China.
DR.. Koo insists that 20 per cent Of
the Boxer indemnity go to his own de-
partment. This Mr.. L. M. Karakhan,
the extraordinary plenipotentiary rep
Iresentative of the Union of Soviet So
cialist Republics, declined to allow.
DR.. Wellington Koo seems to be dis
satisfied with Dr. G. T. Wang, who
signed the draft Of the new relations
between China and Soviet Russia. It
is possible that DR.. Koo refused to &C.
cept DR.. Wang's work because of per-
sonal feeling, and for that reason the
minister Of foreign affairs, DR.. Koo,
attempted to reopen the discussion
with Mr.. Karakhan. Mr.. Karakhan
was i'll and sent his secretary to deal
with DR.. Koo, reminding him that the
agreement was signed and discussion
therefore closed.
Agreement Nine-Tenths Good.
DR.. Koo himself admitted that the
agreement was nine-tenths satisfac-
tory to China, while Mr.. Karakhan
found it only five-tenths satisfactory
to Russia. The Soviet government
was willing to go halfway toward eff
fecting a settlement with the Chinese
government, Mr.. Karakhan felt, be-
cause the people of China sympa-
thized with the attitude of the Rus
sian people expressed thru their gov.
eminent.
Mr.. Ii Chia-ao, Chinese representa-
tive at Moscow, called on the Peoples
Commissary of Foreign Affairs, Mr..
Ghiehsrin, at the latter's request.
Dhfcherin requested the Chinese rep
resentative to convey to his govern
ment that the Soviet government con-
siders the situation in China most Sc
rious. The failure OF the Chinese min
lister OF Foreign affairs to recognize
the agreement already signed by Dr.
Wang is held as an act hostile to the
Soviets and may have the gravest
consequences, for which the RESPONSE
bility will fall on the Chinese govern
ment, Mr.. Chicherin informed Mr.. Ii
Chia-ao.
Chicherin refused to open discus
sion with the Chinese representative
in Moscow on the question of recogni.
ton, claiming that It would unneces-
sarily confuse the proceedings which
are taking place in Picking.
