CHAPMAN HANGING
 WILL BE DELAYED
Reprieve Expected Pending
 Hearing on Bandits Appeal

With the opening of the final bat tie to save Gerald Chapman, convict ed murderer of Patrolman James skelly, from the gallows at Wethers- field state prison late yesterday aft ernoon. 1t became apparent that the death sentence imposed by Judge Newell Jennings on the notorious criminal will not be executed on June 25, but that it will be neces- sary for the governor to grant re- prieve until after the October session of the supreme court.
 Nathan O. Freedman, junior coun- sel for Chapman at his trial in su- perior court, filed an appeal from the decision of Judge Jennings with the clerk of the court yesterday after noon, giving IF reason why the de- fense claims that theeverdict of the jury should be set aside and new trial ordered. Accompanying the ap- peal was request for an extension of time to file draft of a proposed finding by the defense counsel, Atty Freedman claiming that transcript of the evidence in the case had not been received by him until Monday.
 The time required to prepare the appeal makes it impossible for the supreme court to consider 1t at the May session. and as result it will go over until the October term of the court In all cases that an ap- peal is pending before the court, it is customary for the governor to grant reprieve to convicted mur- derer, putting off the date of execu- tion until after the term of the su- preme cour at which the appeal will be considered.
 Friday is the last day for the fil- ing of request for a finding by defense counsel. Il is customary for the defense to ask for finding and when this Is given, 1t Is used as the basis on which the appeal is worked out. The defense asks that the time be extended beyond Friday for this proceeding.
 In the list filed yesterday, there were no indications of any new de- velopments in the case, all the req sons given being the ones that have been made known before. The sum- nation of the states case by States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn in which he referred to Chapman as a ma rauder" Panther" ''pillager," and called the attention of the jury to the fact that the house in South Hadley, alleged to have been for the pur- poses of establishing counterfeit ing plant, was within ten miles from the home. of President Coolidge in Northampton.
 The introducing of the shotguns, nitroglycerine, burglar implements and alleged loot was also cited by the defense as being irrelevant to the charge of murder on which Chap man was tried, and of such nature to prejudice the jury against the defendant.
 The granting of the request by the fury for time table was also cited as a trivial error in the appeal. Other reasons for an appeal were Judge Jennings denial of motions by the

REPORT CAPTURE
 OF SLEEK SAID
Turks RuInOrd as Having Taken
 Kurd Rebel Leader

By The Associated Press.
 Constantinople, April 15.-lt Is reported heer today that Sheik Said, the leader of the Kurdish rebels, has been captured by the Turks en- gagged in putting down the Kurdes- tan revolt,
 Sheik Said, leader of the Kurdis- tan revolt against the Turks which broke out in February, has been fighting under the banners of Islam and has been credited with the in tention of aiming to restore the Caliphate, abolished by the Turkish nationalist government. A circular issued by the insurgents early in their revolt read: Your Caliph awaits you. No Mohammedanism is possible without the Caliphate."
 The fortunes of the insurgents have been variable, and at times they were reported in possession of important towns in their territory.
 Within the last fortnight, the effects of the Turkish mobilization against the insurgents have been strongly in evidence, the reports from Constantinople avowing that the government troops have gradu- ally been recapturing various towns and villages and that the rebels had retreated into the mountains, all though not giving up the struggle.

 Senator Borah, regarding the Dawes plan as "only a step" in set clement of the reparation problem declares mo plan can ever be sue cesful until the final amount is ad iusted," and that it is vital that this amount be fixed and fixed within reason"
 MT. Borah believes that with the world turning definitely toward re construction, the new Germany "wil be of the greatest assistance 1T bringing Russia back to this at mosphere of peace and work"
