HABEAS CORPUS
WRIT REFUSED
YOUTH
Judge Postpones Case Because
of Lack of Jurisdiction When
Told Wife Is at Laurel Home

William Harper Dean, jr., 81
year-old husband of Elizabeth
Love Dean, 10, granddaughter Of
Judge William D. Love, of the
Board of Tax Appeals, will carry
into the Maryland courts his fight
for custody of his bride of six
months whom he charges was
forcibly removed from his apart
ment by her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
James B. Burnett, of the Chastle-
ton Hotel.
Mrs. Burnett said the young
husband had never adequately
supported his wife, that he had
been sent to a sanatorium by his
mother since the marriage, and
that his wife had made her home
with her parents from February
l to May 18 of this year.
Last May 20, Mrs. Burnett said,
her daughter called her, saying
she was i'll. She found Mrs.
Dean alone in a highly nervous
and hySterical condition, she said,
and Mrs. Burnett was sent out to
locate the husband and have him
returned home.
Near Death from Drug
Mrs. Burnett said her daughter
took 80 grains of veronal during
her temporary absence, and on
her return the following day she
found her sleeping and called her
physician, who said the girl was
in a desperate condition. She
was later removed to the Laurel
sanatorium, according to Mrs.
Burnett, where her expenses, ag-
gregating SIS a week, are being
betrayed by her father.
Proceedings Postponed
Justice Jennings Bailey, in
Equity Court today, continued
for one month the habeas corpus
proceedings instituted by young
Dean yesterday when it was dis
closed the young wife is in a
Maryland Sanitarium.
Attorney Milton w. King, coun-
sci of the brides parents, in an
answer filed this morning as
serted that Mrs. Dean was re-
moved to a sanitarium at Laurel,
Md, on June 3 on the orders of
the family physician who ex-
amined her after she had taken
an overdose of veronal, and was
in a serious condition.
Lawyer Plans New Move
When it appeared from the
answer that the young wife is not
in the jurisdiction of the local
courts. Justice Bailey announced
he would continue the hearing to
enable Aubrey st. Clair Wardwell,
counsel for the husband, to take
such other steps as he thought
proper.
Mr.. Wardwell said he would insti-
tute similar proceedings in the
Prince Georges county courts this
afternoon.

SCHOOL NEEDS
TOLD KIWANIS
Harbert Davenport Explains
Necessity of $4,000
Bond Issue

The increase in school attend
ance in Brownsville has been so
great that the present school plant
Is inadequate for pre- mt needs and
will be much too small to handle
the increase of 600 students ex-
pected next year, Harbert Daven-
port, member of the school board,
told the Kiwanis club at its reg
ular weekly meeting Thu. lay.
He explained in detail why the
proposed $4,000 bond issue was
necessary. and sid that two new
buildings would be erected TO
handle the overflow in the clement
ary grades.
He added that In the opinion OF
the board Of trustees. the $50. 900
would be sufficient for the new
buildings. and also for necessary
improvements on the present build
ings.
l. was brought out during the
meeting that building z IS were
much lower now than in the past.
and that now would be the logical
time in which to build.

Schirru, who was tried before a

ended. He broke down, however, dur
ing the final Summation of the pro-
secutor, who described him as "a
man without morals" At this point
Schirru bowed his head and began
to weep.
The defense attorney concluded
This plea by addressing the judges.
your sentence Will be heard by the
world. let 1t therefore be mercisul."
Schirru was charged in all on
seven counts. including the possess
sion OF bombs. the wounding OF three
detectives and membership ii an
anarchist party. He Is the frs.
American to be prosecuted for such
an offense in Italy's highest court.
Police said Schirru. 80 years old

LOCAL NURSE
HITCHHIKINC
FOUND DAzED
Woman Discovered In
St. Louis Says
From Border

NEWKIRK. Okla. May %. LP-A
woman who said she was Mrs. Nora
Schumacher. Brownsville, Tex.
nurse hitchhiking to st. Louis. was
found on a street here early today
suffering from a head injury.
She was semi conscious at inter-
walls but was able to tell officers She
was en- route to the home of her
father-in-law. j. w. Schumacher
in st. Louis. At Brownsville. she said
she was known by her maiden name
o. Nora Wilson.
The woman said she remembered
stepping from a motor car in which
she had been riding. Physicians said
she apparently had fallen.
Efforts 10 find traces OF a Nora
Wilson here failed. but local autnori-
ties expressed belief that the woman
was a nurse who came here recently
giving the name Of Elizabeth Camp
bell.
This woman was found in an un-
conscious condition at Harrington and
treated at the Valley Baptist hosp:-
tai. She was later found in Browns
vile in the same condition and was
cared for by the city.
The nurse. who had been hitch
hiking over the country. said she
had been subject TO such spells since
an injury several years ago. Local
authorities made preparations to
care for her but she disappeared.

being the result Of ignorance OF
the conditions.
The treasury department in the
case Of a building such as the one
at Brownsville must have tentative
plans drawn for each federal de-
partment which will use the build
ing-the court, the customs. i'm
migration, public health, p0Stoffice.
etc. and approved BY these de-
partments before the general work
ing drawings can be started. All
this takes much time, no matter
how II Is rushed, he explained.
He further stated that the treas
ury department Is taking every
building program, including the
building here.
Some OF the points mentioned
are that the staff OF the supervis-
ing architect has been greatly in
creased, that about half the total
work, judged by value, has been
placed in the hands OF private
architects In order to speed II.
and that similar or the same plans
are used for buildings Of the same
size in order TO rush the work.
BY the end of 1888. Mr.. Heath
continues. the 500. O00, 600 program
Will be 20 per cent completed.
which is far ahead OF schedule
The government had IN mind COM
pletion Of the entire building pro-
gram BY 1887.
He wrote the letter 70 Mr.
Creager in response to a letter
from the latter asking for inform
alton on the status OF the project
