GREENE AGAIN
BEFORE JURY

Entering the last stages Of the
Beulah Limerick murder investi-
cation, the District Grand Jury
today decided to recall DR.. Lyman
Greene, the Casualty Hospital in
terne who pronounced the girl
dead.
Recalling of DR.. Greene is the
apparent result of conflicting
stories told concerning the ap-
pearance of the body and the bed
on which the body was lying
when her brother, Vernon Liner
ick, found her dead or dying
at 18 Nineteenth st. S. E, on
New Years Eve.
Stories Fail to Agree
DR.. Greene contends that when
he arrived at the house the girl
had the appearance of having
been carefully rouged and
powdered, and said that she was

Capper Farm Aid Proposal;
Roll Call in House Avoided

Senate Democrats, in party eau
Gus, decided today to battle
without compromise" for the
enactment of the $25,OO0,000 Red

In addition the Democrats
voted unanimously to stand by

to enable the Secretary of Agri-

corporations.
Roll Call Delayed
The Democrats were united in
their decision to force action on
the Red Cross and other, reller
funds. Several spokesmen, includ'
ing Senator Robinson, floor leader,
declared the relief of suffering
was the major problem before
Congress today and that the
Democrats should not abandon 1t
under any circumstances. The
caucus agreed.
Meanwhile the battle Of Presi-

House, against the $25, 100000

with Representative Cramton (R)
of Michigan calling for rejection
of the proposal.
Two hours debate was allotted
before the House would come to

Administration leaders appeared
confident that they could hold
their lines together and send the
amendment to conference with
the Senate with a possible com.

Prosecution attorneys will also
confer Monday to determine if
Herman Brady, husband Of
NOami Hall Brady, one of those
slain in the blast, will be brought
to trial on a murder charge.
There is some possibility that
Herman will not be brought to
trial as the prosecution contended
in its case that the bomb, was
made and planted by Leroy.
Verdict Is Assailed
Meanwhile attorneys for both
prosecution and defense asSailed

District Continued; School
Estimates Undergo Change

Providing a total Of $45 5.596 ,228,
the second largest District of Co
lunbia appropriation bill in the
Capitals fiscal history was re-
ported to the House today by the
Appropriations Committee.
The bill represents a decrease of
$318,704 under the 1881 appropri-
ations and a decrease of $242, ,789
under the budget estimates for the
fiscal year 1882.
Continue Lump Sum
It is recommended that the COM
promise sum of $9,500,000 as the
Federal Governments contribu-
ton to the Districts operating ex-
penses shall be continued for an
other year. In the meantime, the
report says, the special House COM
mittee investigating the amount
the United States should con-
tribute will make it's report to the
House, the Appropriations Com
mittee saying:
"The committee felt that the
present contribution should not
be disturbed pending the report
of the select committee. Pro-
vision is made in the bill that
the present tax rate on real es-
tate and tangible personal prop
erty shall not be reduced dur
ing the next fiscal year"
Salary Raises Cut
Following precedent set this
session in other supply bills, the
committee cut out salary increases
in the District government as
proposed by the budget. The
report explained that apart from
the schools, police and fire de,
partments, and the park police,
the budget had asked $111,520
for salary raises throughout the
municipal establishment.
This item was eliminated and

disapproved proposed increases
in wages of per diem employees"

the matter in a more serious light
than other members of the

Abbie bought the cleaning crys-
tai gobletS and a dozen salad plates.
Gypsy's purchases were humber.
They lunched at the Carlton and
it was after o'clock when the
coupe stopped again before the Wal
lace home.
Gypsy planned a dinner that eve
ming to appeal particularly to Jim's
palate. Her efforts were unreward-
ed. If the young man noticed at
all what he was eating he gave no
sign Of it.
He looked tired, Gypsy thought.
AS soon as the meal was ended
Jim went to the library, WHICH had
now become his home office.
TIE whole house was quiet If
she turned on the radio, it would
disturb Jim's work. Gypsy stood
before one Of the living room win
doWs and looked out at the sky.
The window was half-opened. The
night breeze was cool against her
thinly clad shoulders, but it had the
scent of spring. In the east the
round gold moon was just visible
over the edge of the tree tops. It's
rays lighted the lawn and made it
silvery except here and there
where shrubs cast black shadows.
Somewhere in the distance she
heard a violin.
Oh, it was a night for youth and
love and gay laughter! Gypsy
closed the window behind her and
moved away. A new magazine was
lying on the table. She turned
through its pages and sat down to
read.
A T II o'clock jim still was in the

kitchen and filled plate with the
ginger cookies lie was fond Of.
She poured a tall glass of cold
milk and set it on tray with the
cookies. Then she took them to
the library door and knocked softly.

Gypsy opened the door. Don't
you think you've worked long
enough, Jin?" she asked. You're
going to wear yourself out"
She entered and set the tray
down on one corner of the desk. 1t
was the only corner available. The
desk top was a tumbled mass of
books and manuscripts.

and reaching for the glass. Where's
