Marion Hanlon, daughters of Mr..
and Mrs. William Hanlon OF Berk-
shire, Zoar district, Newton, are in
critical condition at Bridgeport hos
pital from injuries received in the
same accident in which Juchau was
hurt.
Juchau went to Newton yesterday
to call upon Miss Elizabeth Hanlon
and it was decided to take Marion,
accompanying her sister, and Juchau
on an automobile ride. While no
one witnessed the accident, it is be-
iieved from the position of the in
Jured persons when they were found
in the wreckage of the car a few
minutes later, that Elizabeth was
operating the Car.
When the car reached a point near
the House of Prayer, mission
structure, one Of the tires blew, shot
off the rim and went rolling down
the hill, while the automobile, COM
pletely out of control, swerved to
the left side of the road and crash
ed into a tree.
The three occupants OF the car
were rendered unconscious by the
impact and all seemed to be suffer
ing from fractured skulls.
They were pulled from the wreck
age of the car by passing motorists
and rushed to this city. Every effort
was made to save them but Juchau
succumbed shortly after seven
o'clock this morning.

Will Ask RcpriCVc

New Haven, Nov. % P,-Counscl
for Gerald Chapman, bandit and
condemned murderer, has an agree
mcnt with Federal Judge L. s.
Thomas this afternoon to present to
the latter writ Of habcas corpus
on which Chapman will be brought
into federal court probably some
day this week.
AS soon as the writ is signed it
is understood that Nathan q. Freed
man, associate counsel, will hurry to
Hartford and appearing before
Governor Trumbull will ask that
chapman be again reprieved in view
of the court proceedings.
Error In Proceedings
II is further undcrst oOd that claim
will be made that there has been an
error in the proceedings Ivy which
Chapman was brought from the At
lanta prison to Connecticut in that
papers were served by a state Off
Ger instead OF a federal officer.
AS Judge Thomas has said he
would sign the writ of habeas corpus
it was expected the conference would
not last many minutes and that Mr..
Freedman would be at the state
capital before the governor goes
home this afternoon.
Chapman Found Flaw
The flaw in the papers referred TO
is said to have been found by Cap
man himself as he has studied his
own case as It had a bearing upon
the application for a writ of habcas
corpus. The claim is that the
service of papers was made upon
Warden Henry X. w. Scott of the
state prison as a state officer and
not as a federal officer. The petit
ton for a writ says that Chapman
is being illegally detained in the
state prison; that the order of
death issued by the state superior
cour, is in violation of the federal
legislation; that he has been ille-
gally arrested. sentenced and COM
mittcd by state court; and that he
is the victim Of conspiracy of state
officers and officials who by unlaw-
full interference have wrested the
petitioner from exclusive and legal
control of the L. S.
The petition is of considerable
length and detail and stress is laid
upon the claim that none of the
authorities Of the United States has
come to his rescue TO prevent the
sentence Of death being executed
and he still remains in state Of

SYST N
SBESST
Chairman Would Establish s
BY Law, Freeing City From
Budget Control

The lump sum plan appropria-
ton by the Federal Government
toward the expenses Of the Dis
trict should be permanently es-
tablished BY law and the District
freed from control Of the budget
bureau.
This is the opinion Of Congress-
man Frank n. Funk, of Illinois,
who will be the next chairman Of
the District of Columbuia sub
committee Of the House ApprO-
priations committee.
Congressman Funk will take
charge of the District appropria.
ton bill both in committee and on.
the floor Of the House.
The post to which he will BE-.
appointed when Congress convenea5
next week Is one Of the most Inn.
.portant affecting the District which
win be made.
He believes that the lump sum
plan is the best which can be de-
Evised at the present time for financ-
ing the District government.
While he Is Of the opinion that
Congress should enact legislation
establishing the lump sum as per.
lnanent law, he has not vet pre-
pared any legislation to this end.
This legislation probably will beI
left to the District committee pr IN
the action of the House when the
appropriations bill Is called up on
the floor.
IL the lump sum Is made sub
sstantiVe law, there Is no reason why
the District estimate should be sub.
nitted to the Budget Bureau, Mr..
Funk said. The word Of the Dis
friof commissioners and Of the
Citizens Advisory Council should b
taken as most representative OF the
real needs and desires Of the Dis
trict.'
