The court gave no indication
what the sentence would be.
. Attorney General Gilliom request
cd that Schumacher be punished for
contempt because of alleged deros
gator statements made about the
supreme court i'll a league report.
The court submitted the case TO a
group of six attorneys. who decided
by vote of to l that the Anti
Saloon league leader was guilty Of
contempt as charged.
In the report Schumacher charged
inefficiency to Gilliom's office in
the matter Of handling appeals to
the supreme court from liquor law
violators. Schumacher was quoted
as saying "a majority of the su
preme court is at least liberal in
its sentiment. One of its members,
Mr.. Willoughby. (Benjamin NJ.
Willoughby Of Nincennes. who con-
Cured in yesterdays decision) is
said to be bitterly hostile to pro-
hibition, and if he had it in his pow
er would wipe out all prohibition
laws from the statutes. 1t was this
nudge who was defeated for reelec-
ton in 1924 by 935 plurality, but
who still holds to his office on the
bare technicality of a mistake in the
original returns to the secretary of

election had thrown its political
support to Willoughby's democratic
opponent. Willoughby having writ

SUBWAY MURDER
BATTLES POLICE
New York Victim Identified
Slayer Has Escaped
York. Aug. s lR -

New York. Aug. up - The
curiosity of one lone woman among
thousands who hurried through the
subway station at city hall revealed
10 police one of the strangest MUIR
der mysteries in years.
Deep under the earth. the death
dealing shots hushed by the rattle
of passing trains and the hustle of
hurrylns throngs, a mother of
three was shot to death under cir
cumstances which have completely
inystifed police.
Miss Sarah Lipschitz, IS. an
English teacher to Russian immi-
grants. had stopped in the woman's
Mushroom of the station to powder
her nose when she observed a
woman's foot protruding at an
awkward angle from beneath the
''oor Of locked compartment.
She called the attention OF sew
.ral other women to it, but they
shrugged their shoulders and hur-
ried On their way. Miss Lipschitz
finally notified special policeman.
Then as the policeman searched
fruitlessly for a nickel to open the
door. she produced a coin, opened
The door and found the body of
woman shot through the breast
After considerable investigation.
police identified the woman as Mrs.
Emma Weigand. 50. milliner,
who resided in the Bronx with her
mother, Mrs. Frieda Ahles.
At first it was thought case OF
suicide. but no pistol was found
and further investigation showed
adjoining compartment and her
body carried to the one in which
it was found. A crimson stain at
the base of the marble wall of the
first booth and hole in the back
convinced police the murder had
been committed there and that at
least two shots We're fired.
The body was found at 11.45 a.
M, yesterday during the height of
the early noon hour rush, and
check by police convinced them the
shooting must have taken place
within the so minutes preceding.
Mrs. Weigand was married 16
years ago to Frank Weigand, a
chauffeur. They separated five
years ago. Police questioned the
. husband and later announced he
had established satisfactory alibi.
Mrs. Weigand had left home at
3 a. m. to take her daughter, Doro-
thea, years old, to a hospital for
removal of her tonsils. She had
left the child at the hospital and
was on her way home when she
met her death. Police said they
were at an entire loss as to mo-
tive.
