Live Chicken Market
 Again Under Dispute

Drs. NJ. S. Dunn. John T. Don- nelly and Ernest T. Fromen have been appointed a committee of the health board to hold a hearing on the application of Nicola Messina for a permit to conduct a live chicken market in his building on Beaver street, near Lafayette street. Messna's application was rejected several months ago after property owners had protested and Rev. Matthew J. Traynor objected on the ground that the market is too near St. Mary's Parochial school, the con- tinued upkeep of which saves the city more than s100,000 year. A new petition was presented yester- day by Judge r. B. Hungerford containing the names of several who objected at the first hearing.
 N. J. Sidoti made application for q permit to conduct a similar busi- ness at 16S Washington street and it was tabled for investigation.

KELLY LIKELY ID
 BE HEARD TODAY
Movie Actor Ready to Defend
 Self in Raymond Killing

Los Angeles May IS R-Paul Kelly, film actor, faced the crucial role Of his career today as he await ed call to the witness stand in his trial for the murder of Ray Ray mond. musical comedy star.
 The husky young movie actor was expected to tell the story which he hopes will justify the beating he administered to the song and dance man in fist fight admittedly over the affections of Dorothy Mackaye. actress wife of Raymond.
 Based on his previous declara- lions of his love for Dorothy Mack aye, Kelly was expected to rally to her defense against the stories of her all night visits to his apartment testified by his own Japanese house boy and by Miss Mackayes negro maid.
 w. I. Gilbert, Kelly's attorney. planned to put Kelly on the stand after hearing a string Of expert wit ncsses. the first of whom, Dr. w. J. Sullivan of Hollywood. who attended Raymond following the fist fight. testified yesterday.
 Dr. Sullivan, who. after the act or's death. told the county coroner he was willing to sign death cer- tiicate saying Raymond died Of na- tural causes, has been indicted with Miss Mackaye in connection with an asserted attempt to cover up" facts regarding the cause of Raymond's s death.
 To each of the expert witnesses Gilbert said he would propound 150o word hypothetical question as to whether Raymond's death neces- sarily was due to blows from Kelly's fists.
 The first witness for the defense when the state closed it's case yes terday afternoon was Miss Mackaye, whom Gilbert asked but one ques- tion-whether she ever had spent all night with Kelly and had break fast served her in his apartment She answered him with an indig- nant No, sir
 As one of the closing witnesses for the prosecution, Perry Askom, who played with Raymond. said he never had seen Raymond under the influence of liquor or appear "as anything except a good trouper.'

SING SING STRIKE
 IS QUICKLY ENDED
Half Baked Beans at Source Of
 Prison Disorder

Ossining, N. Y. May IS R-
 Convicts at Sing Sing prison pride
 themselves on knowing their beans and accordingly look upon a half baked bean as culinary crime. It was just such a faux pas on the part of an institutional cook that yesterday caused a strike as a result of which today 65 of the more representative of the 1500 prisoners occupy punishment cells. Warden Lewis E. Lawes. who or dered the punishment measures, ad- mitted the justice of the prisoners complaint. The beans. he said. were not cooked sufficiently, but of complaint.
 Etiquette, he maintained. must be observed in prison as elsewhere. Addressing a prisoners meeting in the mass hall he declared the pro- testants had not gone about 1t in the right way"
 The method they actually did pursue was inaugurated by ser gea nt -at-arms Fred Horan and twelve deputies of the prisoners mutual welfare league, who resign ed. Twelve prison barbers imme- diately stopped clipping and 40 men in the knitting factory ceased knit ting.
 However. just as fast as men struck Warden Lawes had them sent to the punishment cells so the strike never really got well under way.
 He also held over them threat of transfer to Clinton prison at Dannemora, N. Y.. a less preten- tious place than Sing Sing and just to show he meant business he add ed 36 armed men to the prison guard. The strike collapsed. They seemed to realize they had acted hastily" said the warden. "and asked to be allowed to go back to work"
 He announced the strikers would be released today.

Up With Feet Blisters.
 New York. May IS R-Pounding the pavements of New York and Long Island on his way to victory in the Marathon race here Sunday was so hard on the feet of Quano- wahu, Indian snake dancer from the Arizona Painted Desert, that he has been forced to turn down three in. vitations to run in other Marathons.
 Until Quanowahu came East for the race. with his three red-skinned companions. he never had seen a rubber-soled shoe or a block of as- phalt. Covering more than 26 miles of hard surface in new sneakers raised great blisters on the Indians feet and constituted an ordeal far harder for him than carrying rattle- snakes in the hands and mouth in the weird snake dance.
 Scarcely able to walk. Quano- waha, after consulting Mike Kirk, A. A. U. commissioner from Arizona, decided to refuse bids for races in Detroit. May 29, Buffalo May 30. or Melrose. Mass. on a fete day in honor of Clarence De Mar. veteran Marathoner.

EAVESDR0PPING AT
 BOTTOM OF MURDER
Broker Powell Sought Secrets Of
 Oil Company's Muddle

Los Angeles, May IS R>-A maze of evidence declared to link tht staying of George F. Powell. Jr. wealthy broker. and his secretary Miss Marge Pike, with an asserted dictagraph scheme to pry into the secrets of the financial muddle oi the Julian Petroleum Corporation today engrossed corps of investi. gators from the district attorneys office.
 The dictagraph plot theory was infected into the case last night by chief District Attorney Harold Da- wis after police had announced their conclusion that the deaths of the couple whose bullet pierced bodies were found in Powell's parked au- ,omobile early yesterday, was g case of murder and suicide growing out of the unrequited infatuation of a neurotic girl stenographer for her employer.
 Disclosing that the broker and his secretary had been under sur veillance for several days, Davis or dcred an inquest. stopped arrange ments being made to send the girls body to relatives in the east and seized her trunk and all personal belongings.
 Davis said his investigation was r-In might possibly have been a double murder by outside influences.
 Davis theory was that Powell had a telegraph connection with the private offices of Loeb. Walker and Loeb, attorneys for s. c. Lewis, who recently resigned as president of the Julian Petroleum Corpora ton after asking that trading in the corporations stock be suspended because of an over issue. Several investigations into the affairs of the Julian company are in progress here.
 Powell was suspected Of having set up his receiving apparatus in a vacant room of the building in which the attorneys offices and the offices of the Discount Corporation of California, of which he was manager. were located.
 Miss Pike was believed 10 have taken down in shorthand the con- versations which came in over the instrument.
 Howard J. Schoder. president of the Discount corporation, declared that Miss Pike had been discharged twice because of her infatuation for her 4 year old employer. When she was discharged last week for the second time. Powell volunteered 10 carry a check to her for an ad- ditional months pay which the corporation offered. The check was found in his pocket.
 Miss Pike left several notes in dicating she was morose and breeding over a friendship with Powell, whom police believe she killed before turning the pistol on herself.
 One of the notes asked that her s. s. Roberts and his wife, of Lawrence. S. D.. be noti- fled If anything happened to her. She told friends she came here several months ago from Seattle.
