HANDS OF SOUTHERNERS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 Up The

SOMERVILLE n j., Nov. 26 (P-
With a procession of witnesses in
Guiding Felix ID. Martini, detective,
once employed by Mrs. Frances
Stevens Hall in an investigation into
the death of her husband and Mrs.
Eleanor Mills, the defense in the
Hall Mills case today finally and
definitely paved the way for Mrs.
Hall to testify in her own behalf
tomorrow
The widow is on trial with her
brothers, Henry and Willie stevens,
for the murder of Mrs. Mills. The
case of the defense will be closed
soon after Mrs Hall adds her denial
to that of her brothers of being
present or knowing anything of tho
double killing more than four years
ago.
Di Martini created mild sensa-
tion when he entered the court room
just before the luncheon recess. He
was arrested last month in Brooklyn
on a New Jersey warrant, charging
him with being an accessory after
the fact of the murder, of conceal
ing evidence and attempting to bribe
witnesses. The New York court of
appeals ordered his release. After
testifying this afternoon in denial OF
all allegations made against him by
the STATE, the New York detective
through his attorney accepted service
of warrant for his arrest and post
ed bail for his appearance. His
lawyer argued for dismissal of the
complaint after the adjournment of
court, Judge Francis j. Cleary deny
ing the motion as committing magis-
trate but promising another hearing
tomorrow.
Justice Charles w. Parker, presid-
ing, rule dtoday that Henry De La
Bruyere Carpenter, cousin of the de-
PENDANTS and under indictment await
ing trial on the same charge could
not testify in denial of testimony of
Mrs. Jane Gibson at preliminary
examination that he was present or
nea rthe spot where the bodies of
the minister and choir singer were
found
Mrs Gibson at the present trial
said Henry Stevens and another man
were there but she was told by the
states attorney not to identify the
"other man." On cross examination
it was brought out that the woman
farmer had identified Henry Car
pender as a man whom she had
previously identified. 1t was held
that there was no Identification in
sofar as the present trial is con-
cerned. His testimony was restricted
to denial that he had carried any
packages from the Hall home.
The court session today was
brought 10 an end as a dozen neigh
bors of Mrs. Jane Gibson went to
the stan dior brief examinations,
testifying that her reputation for
truth and veracity is bad in the
community in which she lives.
Cross examination of three defense
finger, print, experts was. concluded,
all repeating their testimony that a
finger print on calling card of
the Rev Edward w. Hail introduced
in evidence is not that of Willie
Stevens.
A possible charge of inattention
against several members of the jury
was indicated tonight. Inspector
John ]. Underwood chief of the
states investigators, said that he has
four affidavits from newspaper re-
-porters that several jurors have
been seen "nodding and apparently
asleep" Underwood did not say for
what purpose the affidavits were

WHAT DOES THE
NEGRO DEMAND
BY Daniel w. Chase

is at present sweeping the country
is very significant, and is receiving
much attention 1t is surely an un-
mistakable sign pointing to the
needs of new methods embodied in
a new policy to obtain the required
results to which colored Americans
are justly entitled.
The demands for positions and ap-
pointments by colored Americans in
government employ must no longer
be considered adequate remuneration
for service rendered to either of the
major parties
This game Of begging and sending
the fool further are both offensive
to the colored electorate And de-
pending upon an individual in high
office to obtain either municipal or
Federal appointments for colored cit
liens without any safeguards is moth
ing more or less than farce as is
plainly shown by the action of the
present unfairness meted out to col
ored citizens.
Our problem is no longer a ques-
ton proposed for discussion and de-
cision, it is no longer a consideration
for investigation and examination, it
is no longer a question involving
doubt and uncertainty, but it is now
a construction for execution.
Therefore, the construction now
needed for execution is Reforms and
not Jobs.
AS a new people existing in new
age, we must adopt new methods
and new policies, because the old
policies of our forefathers have out
lived their usefulness and cannot be
any longer of any avail against the
well thought out methods of the ma
jor parties and their new policies If
we are to succeed we must cease to
must resort to a new policy, kind
of policy that will eventually give us
part control in the affairs of Am
erica; the policy of control in pol
itics decidedly Negro. The absolute
control of our votes without being
permanently allied to any of the ma
jor parties, a policy that will enable
us to direct our votes to the channel
that will bring us the greatest re-
turns not in jobs alone but also in
Reforms, not to the individuals but
to the People.
This is not the time to demand
recognition, but the time to marshal

Bridgeport, Conn, March 12 Pt- Because Henry Nichols Sanborn, late librarian here, did not remake q will drawn in 1912. as he had told friends he intended to do, his $20,- 600 estate goes 10 former Yale as- sociate Of the teStator, Ogilvie Henry Sheldon. president of the Sheldon oil company of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

 Since he never supported me or in any way performed the duties of a father toward me I do not want him or his heirs or any member Of the Sanborn family 10 have any fur .thcr share of my estate"
 The residue was given to Sheldon thcn q student nt Yale Sheffield scientific school, fin gratitude for many kindncsses and sympathy in sickness and misfortune and chiefly in token of my very great regard for him."

Allied Statesmen Said To Feel That Sacri- flee of Spanish And Brazilian Membership Is Preferable To Other Course.
Madrid, Especially Peeved at Sweden's Opposition, Reported to Stand Ready to Cancel Pending Con- mercial Treaty.

Geneva, Switzerland, March II H1 It is learned from an authoritative source that Spain has definitely de cided to resign from the League ot Nations unless she is given 6 per manent seat in the council.
 From the same source 1t Is learned that Spain has informed Sweden that because of Sweden's untrlendly at titude in connection with the Span ish candidacy for permanent seat, Spain is thinking of breaking off tho pending negotiations for a commer- cial treaty with Sweden.
 News Causes Sensation.
 This development created an enor- nous sensation in those diplomatic circles where it became known to day. Some diplomats characterized it as unfortunate and harmful to tho Spanish cause, bringing into tho league affairs a menace affecting re- lations outside the scope of the league.
 Spanish circles, however. declared the initiative was justified. adding that, in view of Foreign Minister Unden's inimical attitude toward Spain. the Madrid government did not care to transform the existing mo3ua vivendi between the two countries into regular treaty of commerce.
 Developments in the League Of Nation crisis today indicated teu- dency to do nothing definite regard ing the Spanish and Brazilian claims for permanent council seats at tho present time.
 Should this attitude be confirmed by the federal negotiations between the allies and Germany, Spain's po- sition Is that she will immediately announce her withdrawal from the league.
 However, Spanish circles are care
