tained it's mastery over the raw
ages of illness today.
Amazing her physicians, Chi.
cago's society empress carried on
single -handedly her valiant bat
tie against oncoming death. A
staff of half dozen doctors has
given up hope. declaring the end
is inevitable. But so Stubbornly
has the noted patient resisted an
incurable illness that today her
strength was reported to have
grown.
This gain, however, was only
slight. according to the latest bull
letin issuing from the sick room
in the Drake Hotel. Mrs. McCor-
hicks condition was reported as
"unchanged," and she was said
to be asleep.
Physicians today forbade Mrs
Mccormick to sit up in bed as
she had done Saturday, when her
brother, John D. Rockefeller. jr.,
entered the room after his ar
rival from Maine. where he him
self had arisen from sick bed
against doctors orders to race to

In their investigation Of the
murders police said the two vic
tins may have been followers OF
little Augie Pisano. They also
considered the possibility that the

broke out when the powerful
Volpe clan of Pennsylvania. head
ed by the three Volpe Brothers,
was reported to have WEIGHED"
to a Brooklyn liquor outfit on a

Another angle police said they

HOOVER LOSING
MANY STATES,
POLL SHOWS
Governor AIienateS Heavy Vote
of Four Years Ago From
Presidents Column
By COLE E. MORGAN

Gov. Franklin d. Roosevelt,
Democratic presidential nomi-
nee, is making tremendous in
roads into the ranks of those
who four years ago supported
the Republican presidential
ticket. President Hoover, on
the other hand, is cutting only
slightly into the 1928 Demo-
cratic ranks.
This is disclosed in the first
analysis of the party vote from
returns in the nationwide presi-
Dental poll of The Washington
Times in cooperation with all
the other Hearst morning, even
ing and Sunday papers in the
United States.
Doubles Hoover Vote.
Of the 64,850 ballots thus far
tabulated, Gov. Roosevelt has re-
ceived 41,64O and President Hoo
yer 23,21O, a 64-36 per cent ad
vantage for the Democratic can
didate.
Ninety-two per cent Of those
sending in Roosevelt ballots in
dicated thereon the party they
supported in 1928. while 95 per-
cent of the Hoover hackers set
forth their stand four years ago.
The Roosevelt supporters divid:
ed 22,710 or SIS percent, voting
Democratic in 1923 and 15,417
or 81 per cent who went Republi-
can in the last election. The other
3,513 now favoring Roosevelt were
noncommittal on their past stand.
Loss To Hoover.
The Hoover supporters divided
21,659 or 81 per cent as having
voted for him in 1923 while only
928 set themselves down as vot-
ing Democratic four years ago.
The remaining 1918 were non
committal.
Hoover hackers of 1928 pre-
dominate in those who have sent
in poll ballots. 36,476, or Sc per
cent of the 64,850 tabulated being
recorded as voting Republican in
the last election. Supporters of
the Democratic ticket four years
ago numbered 23,647, or 36 per
cent. of the poll balloters. The
remaining 4,726, or 8 per cent,
were in the noncommittal group
Governors Loss Slight
The 36,476 Republicans of four
years ago are now divided So per
cent for Hoover and AZ per cent
! for Roosevelt. On the other
hand, the solid support Roosevelt
is getting within his own party
is revealed in the 81 per cent of
the 1923 Democratic vote he is
holding. giving only 3 per cent
to his opponent.
Outstanding among the States
where Roosevelt has cut into the
Republican fold is California
where he has drawn almost
double the number of Republican
votes that have gone to Hoover

A study of the accompanying

their bodies were finally tossed
out of the car. 49,. ..-. ..-.
Both Had Police Records
Both victims had prison and
police records and both were at
liberty on $4,000 bail. Both have
been on the Brooklyn suspect list,
a. are all those members of the
underworld who once took orders
from frankie Yale.
Their bodies were found shortly
after 8 a. m. yesterday when
Peter Wozniak. who lives about a
100 feet from the Harrison turn
pike. went to his garage to see
what was exciting his pigeons.
Ten minutes before this his IA
year-old daughter, Elfrieda. had
been out to feed those pigeons
and found nothing. Yet when her
father went to the scene he saw
two big burlap-wrapped packages
beside his garage. AS he came
closer he saw human hand pro-
truding from one of the bundles,
He ran for the police.
Automobile tracks were found
Circling the garage.
Detective Louis Ramirez, sent
from the Brooklyn homicide squad
to investigate. had photographs
taken or those tracks for possible
identification later and then re-
NAMED while fingerprints-later
identified in the Manhattan police
headquarters files-were taken
and the autopsy performed.
That autopsy definitely de-
termined that the two murder
victims had been tortured. sub
jected to eXcruciating pain. be-
fore they were finally put to
death.
Their fingers had been beaten,
with hammers or gun butts, until
the flesh was just a pulp. Their
bodies we're mass of bruises,
and their faces had been battered
almost beyond recognition.
The torture evidence led
Ramirez and Captain MCGOWAN
to link the new murders still
more closely with the killing of
Bazzano.
Slain AS Squealers
Their theory was that the
roundup of IA Brooklyn and out
of town men as suspects in the
BazZano murder-With subsequent
dismissal Of the homicide charges
in court-had led to a vengeance
plot by the Bazzano killers. Nc
GoWan said:
whoever killed BaZZanO
must have known that the
roundup that followed came
from a tip-Off to the police.
The two men who are dead did
not, as far as l can find out,
have any part in giving in
formation to the police that
led to the roundup, but ger.
haps gangland believed the
two might have had some part
in that.
"Only vengeance on
squealer could account for the
Savagery with which these two
men were tortured before they
were finally put to death"
Police said one of the men
rounded up in the Bazzano killing
lived in Brooklyn not far from
the home of Boccio. Police said

ON HOOVER LOOMS
Roosevelt Advised to End
Negotiations Over St.
Lawrence Project.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ALBANY. N Y. July 21-The con-
troverSy originating in New York over
the ST. Lawrence waterway treaty
famed brightly today as likely to be
the first major point of attack in Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt's campaign for
the presidency.
In a lengthy and strongly worded
communication to the Governor, the
Roosevelt appointed power authority of
New York State last night took the
Federal administration to task on the
ground that it haa been guilty OF bad
faith ana had Violated New York's
States rights"
The power body whose chairman Is
Frank P. Walsh of New York, assailed
President Hoover's telegram to Mr..
Roosevelt on July 10 as containing a
statement which it said cannot be
reconciled with the repeated declara-
tions of the State Department indl-
eating that ST. Lawrence treaty nego-
tiations had only recently begun.
Time OF Negotiations.
President Hoover, rejecting Mr.. Roose-
velt's suggestion for a conference be-
tween the New York Governor and
himself to clear away New York's diff
culties before the treaty was entered
into reminded Mr. Roosevelt that the
St. Lawrence negotiations had been
going on for nearly three years,
The power authority told Mr.. Roose-
Welt it wished Ito point out the dis
crepancy between the statement OF the
President and the official record
The authority cited a letter from
acting Secretary of State William r.
Castle. jr., to Mr.. Roosevelt on August
10. 1881. and a subsequent statement
to the press in which Castle SAID IL
was clear that the Governor has been
misinformed' in his belief that negotla-
tiens had been in progress with Canada
Would End Correspondence.
The power authority's communication:
which Mr.. Roosevelt smilingly termed
"verv excellent letter recommended
to the Governor that he cease to cor
respond or confer with the national
administration on the st. Lawrence
seaway matter.
OF the Presidents statement regard
ing the duration of negotiations, the
authority wrote:
The apparent purpose OF this state
ment was to imply that the negotiations

considerable period prior to the act OF
the New York Legislature dated April
27, 1881, creating the power authority,
as well as prior to your letter OF June
IL, 1881, addressed to the President"
The Governors letter of June II,
1881, formally advised the Government
that the State was ready to undertake
its power development in the ST.
Lawrence and asked to have the States
interests safeguarded.
Approves Senate Probe.
The board suggested the investigation
ordered by the United States Senate
into the st. Lawrence treaty which was
signed July 18 will provide an oppor-
tunity for the State to secure full and
lust consideration of its rights and In
terestS."
New York State is concerned over its
share of the cost of the project, whlch
includes development OF the state
owned power resources. The Federal
Government suggested Sl5O,OOO000 as
the States share. New York de-
INJURED and offered half this amount.

welt, the power authority said, the

was seeking to interfere in international
relations.
President Makes Reply.
The President. in his reply to the
Roosevelt suggestion. said:
while under our Constitution, Inter
national treaties fall within the sole
Jurisdiction of the Federal Government
nevertheless representatives appointed
by you and leaders in other States
primarily concerned have been con-
suited during the course of negotia-
ton =
You will realize that neither you
nor I have authority to enter upon
agreements in respect to these domestic
questions, but if the treaty is consum-
mated and ratified. l shall be glad to
consult with you and other governors"
