I'LL NOT MARRY.'
SAYS MARION, WHO
RETIRES TONIGHT
Don't Know Anybody Now
Who Loves Me- SAYS
Young Diva.

Is u itFFQ G1-f|F
CLEVELAND, May "A young
coloratura soprano Tho three years
ago made her debut to grand opera
in New York'S famous opera house
tonight will sing her swan song to
the operate stage in public hall
here.
Miss Marion Talley, the Metro
politan Opera Companys youngest
prima donna. will say good-by to
grand opera tonight when she sings
the leading role in "Luci di Lam
mermoor.
Miss Talley arrived here Friday
accompanied by her mother, Mrs.
Charles Talley. and her sister. Flor
ence. Her father also came here
from Kansas City to witness her
final appearance.
VIII Retire to Farm
After tonights performance Miss
Talley expects to retire to middle
western farm.
She did not specify what kind OF
q farm she will have, although she
expressed a preference for a chicken
farm worked "on an extensive
scale"
mo model farms for me-" she
declared. Model farms never make
money. and I hope to break even.
I think I'd like to do some general
farming and raise chickens on an
extensive scale"
Announcement that she would re-
tire to farm was met by food
Of letters from all parts of the
United States. Most of them we're
an attempt TO induce the young
opera star to settle in the Sender's
locality. and many of them offer
ing o farm free of charge.
Location of the farm has not beer
decided on yet. and she would give
no lntimation as to her probable
choice.
Denies Love Affair
She denied emphatically that love
affairs had any connection with her
decision to retire.
I'm not even engaged she de-
clared. Il am going to marry
some day. but not now. You can't
marry the air and there's no one
l know wants to marry me-"
The opera stag evil never hear
her again, she told the United Press.
She will continue to make phono-
graph records. A contract with one
company still has two more years
to run and she will keep her voice
in practice for that reason.

DEBENTURE PLAN GAINS
SENATE FAVOR DESPITE
HOOVER'S VETO THREAT
BoIting Democrats Cut
Presidents Majority
to One Vote.
BY PAUL r. MALLON

WASHINGTON, May 4.-The
strong administration majority in
the senate against the debenture
plan has been broken, and the issue
is so close the leaders have decided
to delay vote until next week.
Polls a week ago showed So to SO
standing with President Herbert
Hoover against the tariff bounty
plan which he has demanded strick-
en- from the farm bill under an in
direct threat of a veto.
The count among those present
and ready to vote today showed At
to 46 favoring Hoover. Leaders said
they could kill the plan by q two
vote margin.
Boiling Democrats have been
urged into line for the debentlue
proposal being championed by their
party floor leader Senator Joseph
Doubtful Republicans from the
farming regions, some of whom an
nounced week ago they would vote
against the plan. have changed their
stand and now are for it.
Before the vote is taken next
Tuesday or Wednesday, the admin
iStration forces hope to convert
some of their WayVard brethern so
they can indorse the Presidents
stand by more substantial major
ity than he would get If the vote
should be taken today as had been
planned.
They believe a slim victory or a
defeat might be interpreted as a
senate rebuke to the President in
view of the strong letter Hoover
sent to the senate agriculture. com
mittee, denouncing the debenture
plan as an unworkable direct subsidy
from the treasury.
The debenture plan proposes that
a bounty OF half the import rate on
any farm commodity be paid for ex-
ports of that commodity.
The theory is such a project would
guarantee the farmers a price equal
TO the world price. plus half the
tariff rate.

WHITE PLAINS, n. Y. May A.
Eugene Bussey. young Johns Hop
kins university student who talks
glibly OF gin and petting parties,
was under arrest today for question:
ing concerning his relations with
pleaSure-loving Dorothy Peacock,
torch murder victim.
Bussey was arrested in New York
and held without bail as material
witness.
A short time previously Frank H.
Coyne. district attorney, had said
Bussey's testimony was of little
value in the case against Earl Fran
els Peacox. who had confessed to
killing his bride Of year and burn
ing the body.
Coyne asserts he has evidence in
dicating Peacox planned the crime
and that he struck his wife over
the head with the butt of a revol-
yer as soon as she had entered the
couples Mt. Vernon apartmnt.
Peacock and his bride had sep
arated but came together for the
first anniversary of their marriage,
on April 20
Bussey's testimony is believed
wanted to ascertain whether or not
Peacock knew of possible love ad-
ventures Of his bride, and whether
such knowledge could have aroused
jealousy which might have led to
murder.
Baldwin Street, 1909 Park avenue,
Baltimore, young medical student
at Johns Hopkins university, apd
son of a prominent Baltimore physi-
clan, is said to be one of those with
whom District Attorney Coyne would
like to talk.

of a car seen frequently in front of
the rooming house where Dorothy
Peacox lived on 143rd street, New
York.

BOSTON. May 4-Hundreds Of
lives were imperiled, a small village
was wiped out, and property dam
age estimated at more than $1,000
900 was caused by the bursting Of
two dams in northern New Hamp-
shire during the night.
Gradually rising rivers today pre-
vented new threats TO residents of
wide area in New Hampshire,
Maine and Vermont, with more
floods a certainty if the storms of
] the past two days continue.
Half a dozen houses were dam
aged by the bursting OF small dam
at Belmont. N. H. between Franklin
and Tilton.
Farm Lands Flooded
In Maine, the Piscataquis river
overflOwed its banks. inundating
parts of Dover -Foxcroft and Gull
ford, interrupting railroad traffic
and flooding hundreds of acres of
farm lands.
While reports from Vermont told
of rising rivers and threatened
floods, no serious damage had oc-
CURED. In Swanto, Vt, near the
Canadian border. however, a mini
ature tornado caused property dam
age estimated at 100000 and in
iured two persons.
Bursting OF the Lake Abenaki
dam at Dixville Notch, n. H sent
a wal lof water down the Mohawk
river valley, washing away the ham
let of Kidderville as members of
ten families looked on helplesSly
from nearby hilltop.
Only a flood warning, broadcast
IN advance of the breaking of the
dam, prevented loss of life.
One Man Missing
The flood also cut through a sec
ton of the town of Colebrook, six
miles away. destroying thirty houses.
barns and garages.
One man, Patrick WaShburn of
Kidderville. was reported missing
today. After his home had been
destroyed in that village he leaped
to telephone and called his daugh-
ter, a telephone operator in Cole
brook
Run for your life! The dam is
out!' Then in the middle Of SEN
tence the connection was broken.
After the flood waters had sub
sided. no trace of WaShburn could

Persons vacating their homes in
Colebrook, as the rapidly advancing
wall of water neared that town,
took with them the body of Emma
Wiswen. who died Wednesday and
was to have been buried today.
