BY ALLENE SUMMER

TOLEDO, Ohio, Nov. 6.-This city,
where women are struck down by
Il phantom clubber, whose face is
with crimson paint, faces yet
graVer danger.
For Toledo has become the city
of Dreadful Suspicion.
Psychology is the answer As
interpreted by the chief of police,
the coroner, the head of Toledo's
state hospital and psychiatrists at
Toledo university, psychology says
that the identity of this maniac may,
when learned, stagger the entire city.
\ Leading Citizen:
He may be a leader in the COM
munity. He may be a public speaker,
a man who arises to say, "We have
with us today"
But he snot a man who says,
I'VE have with us tonight" For it
is at night that the DR.. JekyH Of

NEW YORK COURT
 OVERRULES CONN,
Makes Important Ruling in
 Stanley Beach Case

Bridgeport, Sept. 8 LP,-A para mount point in the decision of Jus tice Churchill of the supreme court
 of New York in the Stanley Yale Beach case, which transcends in inn portance the Beach case itself and has a significant effect upon the le- gal relations of Connecticut and New York states in the matter of con- servatorships, is revealed in tbe written memorandum Of Justice Churchill, received in Bridgeport to- day.
 Notwithstanding the circum- stance that the circuit court of ap- equivalent to the supreme court of errors of this state. has ruled that when a court in a foreign state has passed on the competency or resi- dence of a person and the advisa- biity of the appointment of con- servator over that person, the courts of New York will accept such ruling without attacking it's wisdom or le- gality.
 Contrary to that rule. Justice Churchill in the Beach case, in ef- feet, attempts 10 set aside the action of the superior court for Fairfield county, which confirmed the ap- pointment by the probate court of Stratford of the First National bank of Bridgeport as conservator over the estate of Beach. and holds in his memorandum, for the purposes of the present application" that the facts are that the Connecticut court was without Jurisdiction and the ap- pointment of the conservator there a nullity."
 Judge Edward K, Nicholson, counsel for the First National bank as conservator over the estate of Beach, stated today he will take an appeal from Justice Churchill's de- cision to the appellate division of New York state.
 An appeal from the superior court confirmation of the bank as Beach's conservator is now pending in Con- necticut.

to the world court, and supporting the Nolstead act, the senior Wiscon- sin senator rallied his supporters, many of whom at the outset believed he was beaten. Lenroot met the modification sentiment with the as- sertion he would be guided by the expression of the people in the pro- posed beer referendum.
 If Senator Lenroot has been de- feated, Wisconsin has remoted from office the last supporter of the Cool idge administration in the state con- gressional delegation. Governor Blaine has denounced many of the administration policies, and is pledged to seek reconsideration of the favorable action on entrance into the world court, which he declared with the principle issue.
 Blaine sought the office with the support of practically the entire La Toilette progressive forces. Len root played hand. The conserya- tive republican convention which placed a complete state ticket in the field. did not indorse him and he conducted an independent campaign.

He said at present the squad under the direction of the fire prevention chief makes regular calls and notify prop erty owners by mail.

The board felt that a double check will ensure a more re- liable job and will put the truck out of commission for only three days. The members agreed that the added expense would be offset by the short time the truck would be out of com- mission.
 It was the opinion Of the board that the present repair shop for the master mechanic was not good enough and at the suggestion of Mir. Shanahan, the board voted to look up a new location for him. An appropriation may be sought at a later date

Dispute With Architect

Members of the board found il necessary to make a special appro- priation 10 cover an item which they overlooked in their contract with Architect Mckay. Chief Noble reported that pipes on the north wall of the new No. z fire station were not covered with asbestos and when questioned by the board. the architect declared that he received no appropriation for this item and indicated that he did not intend 10 cover the pipe with money from the main contract,
 The discussion began when Chief Noble reported that he discovered pipes uncovered and expressed the conviction that this was not in ac- cordance with the contract. He said he did not get any satisfaction from the men on the job when he asked about it. Architect Mckay then read from the contract that he was obliged to cover only portion of the basement pipes.
 "1 found out that from Mills man that you told me to cover the pipes" the chief said to Mckay.
 There are several men in Mills employ Which one?" asked the the architect. Why Anderson. the head man of course" Chief Noble answered hotly.
 You know as an architect that you should make the best possible job," Commissioner King said.
 Mir. Mckay in reply said that he knows as an architect that he should cut every expense to the low est possible point.
 Tt looks like a case where the architect put one over on us," Con- missioned Shanahan said. He showed where he cut the price on the fancy work but did not tell us of cuts on some of the important work. What sort of an inspection do you make. Mr. Mckay"
 T seldom miss a day, and if there are any criticism, I would welcome it." Mckay replied.
 "The only criticism I can make is that you are a pretty hard man 10 find" MT. King declared. At the vote for the appropriation of s25 10 cover the item, he said he did not

Ninant Defeated

At the same time the Granite state republicans refused 10 shatter 4s-year old tradition and Governor John G. Winant was defeated for re- nomination by Huntley N. Spaulding Of Rochester by a plurality of more than 3,00J votes. Spaulding's vote in 261 wards and towns was 27,055 with Governor Winant trailing at .23.sS3. Not since 1878. when the two year gubernatorial term was adopted has New Hampshire sent governor back to office.

 keefe Seems Successful
 In the congressional fight Clyde Keefe of Portsmouth and Ferdi- nand Farley of Manchester of the first district staged the only con- test, with the former apparently assured of election today with plurality of several hundred votes. Congressman Fletcher Hale of La conia and Edward N. Wason of Nashua were unopposed republi- cans in the first and second dis tricts and George H. Duncan of Jaffrey, democrat, was unopposed in the second.
 Congressman Duncan offered an election innovation from his home in Jaffrey last night by suggesting a series of meetings in the district at which the candidates might pre- sent those issues which we deem most important" The meetings were suggested in the hope of con- serving the time and energy of candidates and voters and eXpendi- tures."
