Gloucester Mass, Oct. IS R1 The second race in the international fishing schooner series between the Gloucesterman Gertrude L. Thebaud and the Canadian champion Blue nose, many times postponed because of unfavorable weather, started off here today at 10 a. m., E. s. T. When the boats neared the six mile mark Bluenose was leading Thebaud by about three lengths.

 The sea should remain moderate ly smooth with the offshore wind and the best fishermen's race in years was in prospect as the schooners prepared for the starting line.
 The wind had freshened to 25 miles an hour as the schooners came surging out of the harbor toward the starting mark with the four low CT sails set. The rain had blown away and a bright sun made the sea glisten like a field of broken glass. Commander G. U. Stewart of the, C.. G. Destroyer Conyngham placed wis ! ibility at 20 miles. Sailing course number one was chosen.
 The wind had faded to about 15 miles an hour as the schooners went over the line. Thebaud led Bluenose across by about a length but the Canadian was slightly to weather of the Gloucester boat.

 Directors of the hospital told po- lice authorities of their desire to be rid of him yesterday after an anony- nous telephone message informed the hosp: l officials that the institu- ton would be boombed to finish Dia- mond off. The directors said his presence was disturbing other pa tients and disrupting the hospital routine.
 But police replied they did not want Diamond and only doubled the guard of uniformed patrolmen and detectives stationed about the hos pital to repel any possible invasion by Diamonds enemies.
 The warning against a bemb plot was regarded as the gesture of a crank.
 In reply to the request of hospital authorities to remove Diamond, Po- lice Commissioner Mulrooney said:

MURDER POSSIBLE
 IN CH|LD'S DEATH Girls Body Found in Lake Parents Strangely
 Sick

Denver, Colo, Oct IS LP}-An autopsy was ordered today on the body of 10 year old Leona OLough. lin, found yesterday in Berkeley Jake, two days after she had dis appeared from her home. She was the daughter of City Detective Leo OLoughlin.
 Authorities ordering the autopsy said they were considering the pos sibility that the child had been mur- dered and the body thrown in the lake.
 Police late last night arrested one man for investigation after they had been told he was seen a week ago within a block of the OLough- lin home attempting to entice two small girls into his car. Police said they would question him today and check his past activities.
 A preliminary examination of the girls body by Deputy Coroner George BostWick and w. s. Dennis, city pathologist, disclosed two deep wounds on the back of her head and bruises on her left upper arm.
 The child's stepmother, Mrs. Leo OLoughlin. was taken to police headquarters and questioned at length after the discovery of the body, Frank OLoughlin, brother of the detective, who roomed at the OLoughlins, also was questioned. Neither could throw light on the girls disappearance.
 Mrs. OLaughlin, like her husband, has been suffering mysterious ail- 1nent for several days occasioned, she said, by eating tainted food. OLoughlin was in a critical condi- tion at a hospital last night.

 Berlin. Oct. IS P)-Airing of fac tional enmities in the Reichstag to- day delayed further the govern ment's program of legislation for reha bilitation of German business and brought charges to the door of the nationalists and Hitlerites of having caused Germany's postwar woes leading up to her present stringency.
 The slow progress of today's par liam entary session was interrupted , Wilhelm Hoegner, who, in a bitter trade against the right wing mem- bers, charged that the nationalists with their wild wartime talk about annexation and tributes, and the fascists, with their threats and growing opposition to government plans, had caused foreign nations to look upon Germany with dis trust.
 Fiery Debate Follows
 The speech was brought forth by goading of the right parties which the socialists with their 143 seats decided to resist openly. An ar raignment which started as fiery oration, however. soon deteriorated into a two- man debate
 With 12 non-confdence motions before the house directed at cabinet officers, the government forces be- iieved they had a safe margin of from 30 to 40 votes in the Reichstag with which to resist attempts to block their measures of procedure.
 The nationalists and fascists had formed a coalition to oppose the S125, 5,00l,000 foreign loan, which yesterday passed its first and second

 Westerly, R. l., Oct. IS UP)- Three suspects were reported under questioning by state police today in connection with the murder of former State Senator Charles Bur dick, 67-year-old prosperous farmer, at his Wood River Junction home, eight miles east of here last night.
 Robbery Believed Cause
 Burdick's body, bearing six .3S calbre bullet wounds, was found by his wife on the piazza of the home when she returned from a shopping trip to this city. Robbery was be- lieved the motive, since Burdick usually carried large sums of money. His pockets had been turned inside out.
 One bullet struck the former sena- tor in the middle of the back, two below the right ear, two in the left wrist, and one under the left eye.
 State police believed that at the time of the shooting Burdick was sitting in the kitchen of his home operating milk separator. The slayer apparently entered and shot Burdick in the back.
 Almost every piece of furniture in the kitchen had been upset, indicat- ing terrific struggle. Investigators believed that Burdick, after being struck by the first bullet battled for . his life and that the assailant then fired the other shots.
 State Police start Probe
 State police were sent to Wood River Junction from the Hope Val ley, Perryville and Wickford bar racks, Lieutenant H. L. Steman as sumlng charge of the investigation. Burdick's body was brought to Westerly hospital where N-ray pie lures were to be taken in an effort to locate the bullets. Medical Ex- aminer Michael H. Scanlon was to perform an autopsy later today.
 Burdick was well known in this section of Rhode Island. From 1912 to 1914 he was state representative. and beginning in 1915 he served two terms as state senator.
 One of those in custody was ar rested in Westerly and the other two In Charlestown, R. I. They were confined to the local police station pending investigation. Police re- fused to divulge their names, ex- plaining that they had had no oppor- tunity to check up on the suspects wherea bouts yesterday.
 Authorities expressed the belief that two men were involved in the murder.

well-versed and experienced debater on the prohibition question, but he presented arguments for repeal of the amendment and law that showed no little study of the question.
 MT. Chapman presented the affir- native side of the question first. He charged that the 18th amendment and it's operative law, the Volstead act, were children of the brain of Wheeler, who had the congress un- der his thumb, and they always ran to him and asked him how they should vote and what they should
