Aged Father Sees Daugh- CT Slowly Die Unable
 to Give Her Aid

CHICAGO, Ill, Dec. 13.-Metro- politan Chicago counted eight deaths by violence, six by guns and one by suffocation, when robbers left a woman victim to die after binding and gagging her, and an- other death by stabbing.
 Three of the victims were po- licemen, one. bandit, another an alleged auto thief and another Franks Schaeffer, former boxer.
 The killings occurred within a few hours of an anti-crime ulti- matum delivered by Mayor Cermak to the city's police captains.
 Miss Gertrude Frisch, aged 49 years, suffocated while her 75-year- cd father, also bound and gagged, looked on unable to help her.
 Two policemen were shot down when they called at the home of Arthur Lavac to serve a warrant charging him with failure to send his small daughter to school. Lavac said he thought the officers were robbers.

 MT. Shequin's native state was Wisconsin. He came to Alaska in 1892. For years he lived at Wran- sell. He moved from there to Tenakee two years ago. He was a cook by occupation and also spent considerable time prospecting. Of late years, however, he had not been able to do much work.
 Pensioner Since 1929
 Since 1929, he has been a Ter ritorial pensioner. He came to Juneau last month to arrange for entrance to the Pioneers Home at Sitka, but his health, impaired by ailments incident to advanced age, necessitated immediate hos pital care.
 His record on the pension list at the Governors office sets forth that he had six children. No men ton is made of their whereabouts, and they are believed to be living in the States. The remains are at the undertaking parlors of the Juneau Young Company, awaiting funeral arrangem t.ts.

DEFICIT SHOWN. BY DE M 0 CRAFTS. FROM CAMP AICN
Party, Successful Beyond All Precedent in Di-
 vision, Has Deficit

Although potentially successful at the polls beyond all precedent. the local Democratic campaign was short of being a financial success. it was revealed by a statement issued by Senator Allen Shattuck Chairman of the Campaign Fi- nance Committee. The report cov- CTS the activities for most of the First Division.
 The party organization now fac es deficit of S74582, said Senator Shattuck. As the Committee paid advertising, publicity, transporta- tion, hall rent and other charges for both Divisional and Territorial candidates, the size of the deficit is considered small.
 we expect to have this wiped out early next year." Senator Shat tuck said. We did not solicit campaign funds generally during the campaign, and we do not pro- pose to take up any collections TOW. However several persons have made voluntary offerings since election day and the Com mittee will welcome additional con- tributions to the cause"
 The Democratic Divisional can didates were all elected by large majorities, and every one of the party's candidates for Territorial offices were given similar majori- ties. The total cost of the cam paign was under $500, which was considerably over the pre- campaign estimates of the party organization

MURPHY
 UNDER ARREST
 FOR BURGLARY
Charged with Serious Of- fense for Alleged Break
 ing Into House

Miles Murphy, local claimant to the Alaska middleweight boxing crown, was today charged in the United States Commissioners court with burglary. His bond was fixed by Judge Charles Sey at $1,500 pending a preliminary examination or the charge, the date of which was not fixed.
 Murphy is alleged to have broken into house on Willoughby Ave nue Sunday night. His object, it is understood, was to prove to Jim Thomas, another boxer, he was the better man.
 If that was his aim, he failed dismally. For when Special Dep ufy Marshal Frank Booth appeared on the scene a minute after Miles had effected an entrance, Thomas had settled the dispute at least for the time being. According to Booth Thomas was master of the situation and Miles was recum- bent on the floor, listening to the little birdies twitter. However Murphy wasn't in ringside form as he is said to have been doing more than just looking at the juice that inebriates and had found that it is indeed potent. Between 1t and Thomas's right he went down for the count
 Murphy is matched for a fight in Cordova next month with a boxer named Anderson. The out look for that event did not appear over promising today.

VIENNA, Austria, July 5.-Dtpatches
from Bucharest declare that Is lepers
from the isolation colony at Tichilesti
tried to carry out threat to march
on Bucharest" and entered the town
of Isaccea, spreading panic.
The news of their arrival spread like
wildfire through the town and the in
habitants barred their houses until
military authorities transported the
lepers back to their colony.
The marchers were clad in rags and
almost diving from starvation, the re-
ports said. They yelled for food, which
was thrown to them from windows.
Police were informed the colony had
been without food or money for months.
The only physician left for Bucharest
10 days ago to collect funds, but had
not returned.
On June the 100 lepers at Tichi-
lesti threatened march on the capital
unless better food was given them.
The situation was said to have arisen
because grocers. farmers and other
tradesmen, long unpaid by the govern
ment, hesitated to deliver further sup
plies to the colony.
Isaccea actually is about 100 miles
from Bucharest, so it is apparent the
lepers were corralled before they had
seriously threatened to filter into the
capital.
