 Gen. Lopez Ochoa announced that government auxiliary columns
 were advancing on Oviedo without
 serious resistance, although they encountered frequent barricades. Revolutionaries at Turbia raided an arsenal and seized an old ar tillery battery with which they tried to bombard Oviedo. After they had hit the church tower, government

 Madrid, Oct. S.-UP).-Revolt broke out anew in Corunna prov. ince today while combined forces of republican Spain--army, navy, marines and police-dominated nearly all the country, leaving so- cialist rebels to conduct guerilla warfare where they coud.
 The government had hoped that the continued clashes in various areas were but the dying flickers of revolutionary flame that scared the country. .
 But official word came at S:3O a. m. (3:30 a. m. EST) that a gen. eral strike had been proclaimed in Corunna province.
 Corunna is the northwesternmost province. There had been trouble there, but the government had hoped it was over.
 Confident that the rebellion of socialists, communists and syndical- ists was a failure, the government announced 1t dominated the situa- tion.
 City Under Guard
 Rifles and machine guns of po- Iice, storm guards, civil guards and infantry commanded the cities. Artillery was trained on strategic points in such revolt centers as Barcelona. The guns of warships were faced toward Barcelona and Gijon, on the north coast. port of the Asturias area.
 Upward of $50 persons, includ- ing women and children were dead, victims of the revolt that started Thursday midnight in pro. test against the formation of an allegedIy fascist government, and 1,20O0 injured were in hospitals. The president and most other leaders of semi-autonomous Cata- lonia, who tried to set up a sep arate runion of Iberian repup- lies. were prisoners aboard a war ship in Barcelona harbor. Francesca Largo Caballero, the blue-eyed former plasterer called the Spanish Lenin, who directed the rebellion, was in hiding. Thousands were under arrest. Army and Navy Loyal The loyalty of the army and navy to the government. added to the morale and discipline of the crack police forces, seemed to have settled q question which Spaniards had asked themselves for many months:
 When the test came, would the 1-2 year old republic, depending for support on many political lead CTS not really averse to a monarchy, be able to hold together against the combined left wing labor forces and the scparatists in Catalonia and the Basque provinces of the north ?" It seemed the answer was ives. '' Present situation The situation was as follows: Madrid-sporadic firing through out the night; soldiers in full con- trol.

 such charge of murder, the evil dence being for your considera- tion.
 Now burglary, so far as we are concerned with it's definition. is de- fined by statute to be wilful or malicious breaking and entering of any dwelling house by night with intent to steal or commit battery If, then, the evidence presented to you in the grand jury room req sonably tends to show that the child was feloniously stricken in Hunterdon county by Hauptmanr and afterwards died as a result thereof, and that the stroke caus- ing death was inflicted in the pur- suance of the perpetration of burglary and had intimate and close connection herewith, and was naturally consequent thereto you should find an indictment for murder regardless of whether the stroke and injury was accidentally or intentionally inflicted.
 But even if you should not find that the stroke which resulted in death was inflicted in the perpetra- ton of burglary. if you never theless find that the evidence pre- sented to you in the grand jury room reasonably tends to show that the stroke which caused death was caused or delivered by the accused in Hunterdon county with intent to do serious bodily harm to the child while the accused was carrying away the stolen child and its clothing, you should return an in- dictment for murder. If you re- turn an indictment for murder, the grade or degree of the crime will be determined by the trial jury fl they find the accused guilty.
 You may now retire and take up the consideration of the matter.

Republicans Have Bill in Congress to Stop Pack

washington, May fb--(UP)--- COngI ess is giving serious consld- eration today to the presidential 1 renominntion racket. old time American politics such aH Mark Hanna and grandfather used to play is on the spot,
 Chairman Hatton W. Summers placed on tho house Judiciary com mittee docket today tho Steiwer bill to bar hand picked federal of. hce holders from national political conventions.
 Democratic leaders arc uncer- tain what to do with the disarm. ingly simple bili which passed the senate last week and now awaits house action,
 Senator Frederick stciwor. r. Orc, proposed the bili in tho sen. ato. Ho told tho United Press to- day that tf it had been inforce 22 years ngo William Howard Taft probably would not have been re- nominated for president. Ha thinks Woodrow Wilson might have been pnssed over for n s0e- end term in 1918 and that Herbert c. Hoover might have been stop. ped in 1928 and iO32. Taft in 1919 and Hoover in 1889 were de- eislvely defeated In the election. Wilson squeezed in.
 The bill is designed to prevent packing Of party conventions with postmasters and other local statoHa men who arc on the federal pay roll and therefore in the admin. lgtration'g pocket. Htciwer does not believe such leglslation would interfere with renomination of President Roosevelt.
