CANISTER AVENGED BY DOUBLE KILLING
Two Brothers in Springfield, H.,
 Latest Victims

St. Louis, Nov. F OF9 - Robert Aeillo, 23. and Frank Aeillo, 20, brothers, shot to death by a masked man as Springfield, Ill.,. last night. were distant relatives of Charles Palmisano, wealthy wholesale fruit merchant, assassinated here yester- day.
 The fact that Missouri car was used In the Illinois case and an Illinois car in the Palmisaro killing suggested the double killing at Springfield might have been in re- prisal for the murder of Palmisaro.
 William Russo, . leader of the Italian gang here. is a nephew of Palmisano and a brother.in-la of Tony Aeillo. brother of the men killed at Springfield. Tony Aeillo is facing murder charges both in St. Louis and Springfield.
 The three killings in 24 hours raised to the total homicides at- tributed to factional differences, with whiskey deals, blackhand threats and refusal to sign bail bonds dg- uring as motives.
 The feud became known Aug. g, when two St. Louis gunmen, Tony Russo and Vincent Spiccuza. were lured to Chicago and killed. Aug. 94. Russo's henchman. Benjamin Giamanco, and an innocent bystand- CT, Aolys Beelman. were killed here. Jaspar Aeillo. a nephew of the Aeillo brothers, was killed last summer.

German Dance Floors To Be Ruled By Waltz

The winter seasons new dance is the waltz, according to the decree of the Union of German Dancing Mas ters.
 Other dances still remain on the repertoire, but the waltz is the thing, topping the Tango. the Black Bot tom and a less violent Charleston, the Yale and the Heebie Geebies.
 At the annual congress of the Dancing Masters the Modern Waltz" won the applause of thou sands. It has less turns and more walking" than it's classical prede- cessor. The slow, lulling rhythm re- mains, but the dancer is no longer in danger of becoming dizzy.
 Now it's up to the orchestra to play in the correct tempo, and to the dancing public not to dance the Black Bottom or Tango 10 waltz music. Otherwise the dancing mas ters threaten to hang placards: Dance to the music being played, please" as a protest.

CELL HONEYMOON LASTS ] MINUTES
Murderer Wed in Prison Kisses
 Bride Through Bars

New York, Nov. 12 P'-Edward derer, and his pretty blond wife, whom he married in the Tombs chapel Thursday afternoon, were al lowed a five-niinute honeymoon yes terday morning in the photograph gallery in the basement of police headquarters.
 It was not much Of a honeymoon a few whispered words, long handclasp and a. kiss through the iron bars that separated them. And then Chaser was off to Sing Sing to begin serving the sentence of 20 years 10 life meted out Thursday by Judge Mott Of general sessions.
 Before her strange marriage Thursday afternoon Mrs. Glaser was Mary Konkle, IS, of 204 East 12Gth street. Glascr was convicted a few days ago Of killing a night clerk in the hold-up of a Harlem hotel Jan, o7. Four hours after he was sen fenced by Judge Mott he and Miss konkle, who had been his sweet heart before he got into trouble were married by the Rev. Dr. John T. Wilcs of the Seventh Presbyterian church, in the Tombs chapel.
 With about 15 other prisoners who were to make the trip up the river" Glaser was led yesterday morning to the basement Of police headouar:ers to have his photograph and measurements taken and was placed in the prisoners pen with the others to await his turn.
 There was a knock at the door leading into the photographic gal lery and Glaser's bride asked if she might see her husband. Deputy Sheriff Adolph Jacobs conferred with Deputy Sheriff Martin kenned, and said, "Yes. we'll give you five minutes"
 The prisoners pen for the. most part is incloscd with metal mesh screen reaching from ceiling tt floor. but at one end are iron bars but no screen. Chaser and his wife hurried 10 these bars.

Reception Shuddcrs
 At Sight Of Package

A little package wrapped in grey paper and done up with a pink string caused an embarrassing incl dent at a royal reception at the Ely see Palace.
 King Fudd Of Egypt was being greeted by President Doumergue in the presence of scores of full-uni- formed officials and diplomats standing stiffly at attention. A mem Der of the Kings suite with the package hanging hy loop from his fingers stepped forward towards the President.
 Consternation relgned. Diplomatic usage does not provide for plebeian packages; rules for royal receptions say nothing about how to handle them. For a few minutes no one knew what to do and the Egyptian stood smiling in embarrassment. Then the President realizing the generous If informal intention, took the package. Everyone breathed more easily.
 The package contained an ancient Egyptian manuscript intended as gift for the French Republic.
