Strelna last year, is in progress here before District Judge E. Coke Hill and jury, and it is admitted by the prosecution that the case is difficult one for the reason that there was lack of proper investigation immediately following the murder. The revolver with which Arnott is believed to have been killed is said to have been han dled by many persons immediately after the finding of the railroad workers body, thus making it impos- sible to obtain finger prints of the person who did the shooting.
 When Arnott was found dead, he was in his bed, with hands behind his head. It is understood to be the in- tention of the government to try to prove, the the aid of expert witnesses, that Arnott could not have placed his hands in the position they were when he was found if he had fired the shot which caused his death. This evil dence is desired to prove that Arnott did not kill himself.
 In a statement made soon after the tragedy, Mrs. Arnott is said to have explained that she heard a shot after she had left the house at Strelna on the night ,of}the tragedy, to. summon aid from the railroad bunkhouse, it Appearing that Arnott .khad been drinking on the night of his death.

WASHINGTON, Dec. "A. - Since the Territorial Legislature of Hawaii declared for statehood year ago there has been more or less sentiment in Alaska for similar action upon the part of it's Territorial Legislature, without giving much consideration to the argely increased cost of maintain ing State with limited population of 60,000 people scattered over an area of 586,400 square miles. Hawaii has a population of 386,336 and an area of but 6,407 square miles. Dur ing the past week Delegate Houston introduced concurrent resolution requesting and urging the Congress of the United States of America to pass an enabling act authorizing the people of the Territory of Hawaii to form a constitution and state govern ment, to be admitted to the Union on an equal footing with the original States"
 Delegate Houston privately admits that he does not believe that the reso- tioR will pass at this session, al though he says: "We have the disad- tages. of statehood, but not its advan- stages.s~-We are carrying the burden, halt-ahaye to plead for the rewards. HawaiAtaday is an example of taxa stion without representation. We have more. people than four of the States. and wespay more income and corpora tlon taxessthan thirteen of them."
 WhensAa0vernor Lawrence M. Judd was in Washington last month he said that statehood for Hawaii is inevit1 . able in theHdast;ant future but at pres ,ent any political change would be premature and inopportune. He then explained that "agitation to make the Territory State, so pronounced a

 The negotiations which resulted in the decision of the rail workers bega January 15 and terminated yesterday afternoon, when the representatives of nearly two million union employees accepted the proposal presented by the rail executives.

Will Run Hoover Campaign While Sanders Acts as
 Mark Declares Washington Correspondent

"This occurred in 1923 when the party was cleaning up the deficit preparatory to the Coolidge cam paign of 1924. Hays divided the bonds up among wealthy republi- cans who then contributed to the party the amounts of the bonds received.
 "The republicans not wishing to revive talk of these Sinclair bonds, decided against making Hays chairman, and for time it looked as if Butler would be chairman. In a conference at the White House on the Sunday before the Chicago convention it was decided to make Hays man Sanders chair man."
 The Massachusetts delegation deposed Butler as national com mitteeman at Chicago.
 "Hays has always been a close friend of Hoover" MT Gilbert writes. "Ie was in the background of the Hoover pre-convention campaign in 1928. He. has been
 more or less inactive in politics since Jim Watson took the con- trol of the Indiana organization away from him soon after he re- signed the chairmanship of the re- publican national committee, June l7, 1921.
 |. "This year Hays reappeared in Indiana republican politics. He played a prominent part in the In- diana republican state convention and was made one of the big four from Indiana at Chicago" As Senator Watson is candi- date for reelection this year, he has made his peace with Hays, ac- cording to the story.
 "It had been expected" says Mir Gilbert, "that Postmaster General Brown would be the power behind the throne with some man of his selection acting as national chair man. But the president has pre- ferred Hays on account of his rep utation and experience as a cam- paign manager. So Hays, not Brown, will be chief of staff" Of the Sinclair oil bonds re- ferred to, according to a state ment by Senator Walsh, $233,000,- 900 went to Albert F. Fall, former secretary of the interior, recently released from federal penitenti- ary, and $260,000,000 to will Hays in making up the deficit of the re- publican campaign of 1920.

New Plan for
 Victory Fund Committee to Succeed Charles G. Morris as
 Chairman

Indications to-day were that no special chairman for the Connec- ticut democratic Victory Fund will be named ts carry on, the drive. Charles Gould Morris of New Ha- ven and Newtown resigned here on Tuesday at a meeting of the state executive committee at The Elton. It was reliably reported to-day that special committee, of which State Secretary J. Francis Smith of this city is a member. will continue to direct the matters pertaining to the drive.
 With Secretary Smith on this special committee are National Committeeman Archibald McNeil of Bridgeport and State Chairman David A. Wilson of Hartford. It is understood that due to the great amount of work entailed the office of chairman of the Connecticut drive Is not being anxiously sought by anybody.
 Mayor Frank Hayes was among those who. refused to consider the chairmanship. However, with the special committee of three in charge of the drive affairs it is ex- pected that the ;. campaign for funds will continue just as well as 1t did under the chairmanship 0i MT Morris.
 Herbert Plank, who is in charge of the publicity work for the state democratic organization and who is stationed at the 5party's state headquarters on East Main street. this city, will continue to keep track of the returns coming in. Connecticut's quota is $50,000 and so far much progress has been made in raising this money.

Despite the filing of bill of sale affecting the title to the fixtures and merchandise of the Kuperman Jewelry store on South Main street, which was filed during the past week, the city to-day continued to retain possession of the merchant disc seized yesterday by City Sher- if William ]. Roach on q tax war rant. Yesterday Sheriff Roach seiz- ed the merchandise and fixtures at the store due to the noll-payment of a tax bill and took everything away pending an auction to satisfy the claim of the municipality.
 The bill of sale was from the Kuperman store owners to Max Fucker. However, the city's claim for unpaid taxes is preferred claim and comes before the title acquired by Mir Fucker. Under the law the city might have been clos ed out had not its claim been en- forced before the expiration of a number of days.
