HEIRS. Of SLAIN
MAN DESTITUTE

NICE, France, March 25.-Heirs
to millions, the two little Nixon
Nirdlinger children, with their
father slain and their mother
held in Jail while the killing is
being investigated, faced the pros
pect of becoming charity wards
today.
Their plight was revealed last
night by Magistrate Vachier, who
is conducting the inquiry into the
killing of the wealthy Philadel-
phian by his wife, the former
Miss st. Louis"
The magistrate said the beauti-
full young wife had only $50 when
arrested, and that only enough re-
mains to feed the children until
noon today. He, Police Chief
Curly and American Consul Honey
searched the NiXon-Nirdlinger
apartment in vain for more
money.
However, it is believed that the
Nice American Aid Society would
advance funds for care of the
children until the arrival of Mrs.
James H. Nash, mother of Mrs.
Nixon-Nirdlinger, who is expected

LIMA, Peru, March IS QN.SO.
Martial law again prevailed
throughout Lima today after a
spectacular attempt to upset the
government collapsed before the
onslaught of loyal troops, who
killed between 40 and SO rebel
lious soldiers.
Scores were wounded in the
bitter fighting, which scattered
the gay street throngS and spread
panic through the city. One re-
port said 200 soldiers were killed,
but this could not be Substan-
tiated.
Government officials declared
the revolt was instigated by Com
munistic elements among the sol
diery and was apparently led by
non-commiSsioned officers of the
fifth infantry regiment. Many
of them were arrested and will
be court-martialed.
Officers Imprisoned
The mutineers seized their Of
ficers and held them prisoners in
the barracks. Reinforced by light
tanks, mounted machine guns and
armored cars, the soldiers COM
mandeered taxicabs and swept
through the streets to storm the
presidential palace.

CHICAGO, March IS GN.SO.
Hearing of the Chicago Coliseum's
$5OO,OOO breach of contract suit
against Jack Dempsey, former
world heavyweight champion, re-
sumed here today.
It is charged that Dempsey
violated an agreement when he
refused to meet Harry Wills,
negro heavyweight.
The former heavyweight cham
pion's defense suffered a setback
yesterday when Judge H. S.
Pomeroy ruled that Coliseum
attorneys were authorized, under
certain conditions, to introduce
evidence on the injunction the
Marion county, Indiana, superior
court issued restraining Dempsey
from meeting any other fighter
before fulfilling an engagement
with Wills.
This was before he lost the
title to Gene Tunney.
