THREE ARRESTED
IN FARMERS DEATH
Ex-Service Man, Widow and Son
Held After Maryland
Man Dies.
BY the Associated Press.


PRINCESS ANNE, Md, November
26.-Three persons were held here to-
day after an investigation into the
death Of Arthur Die, known
Crisfield waterman and truck farmer.
Die was found dead in bed Sunday
and was believed to have died of
natural causes. Officers said investi-
cation showed, however, that he had
been beaten or otherwise injured. He
was about so.
Those arrested were William Powell,
middle-aged ex-service man, of Cris-
field; Dies widow, Mrs. Grace Die,
and her son, Charles Die. Powell
was held for questioning pending a
hearing. The dead mans widow and
son were held as material witnesses.
States Attorney F. Kirk Maddrix
said other arrests were imminent. He
said he planned charging Powell with
Dies death, but would not do so until
the hearing was held, probably within
two or three days.
Physicians whose names were not
disclosed were called in to examine
Dies body. They found injuries on
his neck and head. They were de-
scribed as "holes."
Dies widow and son will be allowed
to go to Crisfield for his funeral. They
will be in custody Of the sheriff ana
will be returned here.

NORTH AMERICAN
ASKS INJUNCTION
Petition Filed to Block En-.
forcement of Holding
Company Act.

The North American Co., giant util-
tiles holding concern, which controls
local traction and electric power COM
panies, today asked the District Su-
preme Court to enjoin enforcement of
the Wheeler-Rayburn holding COM
pany act and to declare that legisla-
ton void in its entirety.
This law threatens imminent dis
ruption Of the plaintiffs management
and personnel" the court was told.
The petition states registration by
North American with the Securities
Exchange Commission would enable
the commission to carry out against
it the death sentence" imposed by
the act.
If the company should register, 1t
would put the commission in complete
control of its affairs pending its dis
memberment and destruction" the
plaintiff asserted.
Familiar Arguments Used.
Asking that the law be declared un-
constitutional, the holding company
attacked it with most of the argu-
ments heretofore brought forward
against other New Deal legislation.
Congress unlawfully delegated its
legislative authority in passing the
Wheeler -Rayburn bill, it was con-
tended. The new law, stated the COM
pany, is an unlawful confiscation OF
private property, provides excessive
fines, usurps the power of estates,
renders the company subject to un-
lawful search and seizure and clouds
the title of the plaintiff to its invest
mentS.
Operation of the law would threaten
investment of the $4,000 stockholders
of the North American, the court was
informed.
Holds Stocks for Investment.
The business of the company, 1t
was said, is holding stocks for long
term investments. Present valuation
of its holdings is approximately $780,
600 900, consisting principally of the
stocks of the Washington Railway &
Electric Co., the North American
Edison Co., the North American Light

Killeen Ciuen Simple Burial
As Killer Prepares Defense

Except for the absence Of the GUS
tomary crowd, Edward v. Eddie"
Killeen had a typical gamblers burial
today, while the scorned woman who
killed him was preparing to defend
herself against murder charge with
funds coming from a mysterious
source.
AS the $1,000 copper casket con-
tanning the body of the man with
whom she had lived for nearly two
years was being lowered into the grave,
Mrs. Lillian Maddox, his paramour,
sat in a cell in Rockville jail.
Virtually penniless herself, the 35-
year-old killer has somehow found
funds with which to engage skilled
counsel to prepare her defeuse. None
of her associates would reveal the
source Of the money, but there was
good reason to believe 1t came from
gamblers.

FARM IMPORTS UP
AS EXPORTS DROP
Drought and New Deal Crop
Reduction Program De-
CIared Factors.

Drought and the New Deal CROP
reduction program have contributed
to steady decline in exports and
increase in imports of farm products,
1t was indicated by statistics made
public today at the Department of
Commerce.
Although there were some gains
in exports in october over September
of this year, they had little bearing
on the general downward trend of
exports and upward sweep of imports
for the first 10 months of 1885, as
compared with the corresponding
period of 1884.
Analysis of the figures by Govern
ment experts disclosed that most of
the major increases in imports oc-
CURED among a group of farm prod
ucts which were directly affected by
last years drought and by the crop
curtailments imposed by the A. A. A.
regulatory policies.
Canned meats, meat products gen.
StuffS and vegetable oils and fats are
in the category principally affected.
it was pointed out.
Commerce Department figures
showed that of a number of selected
items, only barley, oats and raw cot
ton registered export gains last month,
as compared with October, 1884.
Imports Of wheat rose from 4,342, ,22s
bushels in September, 1885. to $780,
671 in October. In October a year
ago imports of wheat totaled 2,334,873
bushels. The wheat situation has been
under influence of several factors
tending to encourage imports, one Of
fetal explained. The quality of domes-
tic wheat has been impaired by
drought conditions, for one thing, and
the crop-reduction program has added
its weight in sending American wheat
prices soaring to a point where for
eign importations are profitable.
Pork imports have increased over
last year, but the incline has not been
so steep as might have been expected
in view of the hog curtailment activ-
tiles of the A. A. A. Imports of hams
and bacons rose from 450,3s7 pounds

UPPER MARLBORO, Md, Novem-
Der 26-Investigators here today were
delving again into the financial affairs
of Corinna Loring, the thrifty and in
dustrious public stenographer whose
murdered body was found November 9
in a clump of pines about a quarter
of a mile from her home at 3110
Beech street, Mount Rainier.
Cancelled checks examined so far
merely confirm previous statements by
members Of the family and by Rich
ard Tear, 29, Corinna's fiance.
Tear, an attendant at St. Elizabeth's
Hospital, was re-examined for two and
a half hours late yesterday in the
court house here by Lieut.. Joseph
Itzel of Baltimore, who is in charge of
the investigation.
Tear previousl.- had told police he
borrowed $40 from his fiancee to make
a payment on his automobile and that
he later repaid the loan in full. Lieut.
Itzel found Corinna's check for $40 to
Tear in going over her savings account
at Mount Rainier bank.

The bride-elect had purchased and
tAid cash for considerable household
furniture. which is now in storage
The girl owned three S100 certif-
icates in postal savings and two Fed

of 500 each. She was understood to
have invested several hundred dollars
in furniture for the home she planned
with Tear and also had bought at least
$500 worth of Office equipment, in
Guiding two dictaphones.
So far as can be discovered, the
murdered girl left no will disposing

RIO DE JANEIRO, November 26.-
An alleged plot to enlist the 1st Caval-
nv Regiment, quartered in the heart
of Rio de Janeiro, in a Communist re-
bellion against the government was
thwarted today as reports from au-
thentic sources showed a rebellion
death list of from 40 to 60 men.
Lieut.. Lauro Fontoura, detailed to
the training of reserve officers, was
arrested before dawn, charged with
attempting to inCite revolt OF the
cavalry unit.
OficialS said he had made an effort
TO bring the crack mounted corps into
line with the soldiers who are fighting
in Northeast Brazil against the gov
ernment.
Insurgents Repulsed.
From the State of Pernambuco, Capt.
Melvino Refs, secretary OF security
of the state, reported that after %
hours of fighting the insurgents had
been driven back toward Socorro, the
military garrison of Recife, and that
about so had been killed and 100 cap
tured.
However, Socialists here in the cap
ital, who said their information came
through secret channels, asserted that
the rebel deaths had not been more
than 40.
With a "state of siege" proclaimed
throughout the nation, the govern
ment was pushing all available mill
tary power into the area where the
rebels had made their gains. Ex-
tremist leaders predicted the uprising
soon would extend to other sections
of the country.
The loyalists' partial victory in Per-
nambuco apparently was due to the
arrival at Recife of federal troops
from the neighboring states of Para
hyde and Alagoas.
Bombers May Be Sent.
The federals' mountain artillery
shelled Afogados effectively yesterday
and the rebel retirement toward So
corro, followed.
Government bombing planes, most
of which were dispatched from Rio de
Janeiro, were expected to go into
action at any time.
The fighting in the state of Rio
Grande do Norte apparently was be-
tween the 21st Battalion of light
infantry. which has rebelled for the
third time since 1881, and a group of
loyal officers headed by Col. Octavio
Pinto Soares in cooperation with the
militarized police of the state.
The colonel was reported to have
been wounded twice, but to have
organized the loyal elements and be-
lieved capable of holding out Until
federal assistance arrived.
Rebels Hold Natal.
The rebels still held the strategic
seaport of Natal and the nearby city
of Macahyba in the state Of Rio
Grande do Norte, authenticated re-
ports said, after seizing them Sunday
upon the outbreak of the revolution.
While the two cruisers weighed
anchor with arms, munitions and an
unannounced number of men, appar-
emily to bear down on Natal, 400 gov
eminent troops made a forced march
toward Macahyba in an attempt to
wrest that site from the rebels.

Pierre Laval today yielded to the de-
mands of the Leftists for the dis
banding of Nationalist forces such az

The cabinet agreed on a proposal
now pending in Parliament, to appeal
to the Chamber of Deputies patriot
ism" for immediate discussion of
LavaPs financial measures.
This decision means Laval will de-
mand an immediate vote Of confidence
for his decree laws, which are intended
to defend the franc against specula-
ton and the budget uncertainty now
causing a heavy outflow of gold, with
danger Of eventual devaluatiOn Of the
franc.
The premier will ask the chamber
to take up the battle against political
troops after he disposes of the inter-

Laval, confronting political and

announced he would ask public sup
port in a radio address tonight. He
let it be known his government would
choose to fall rather than depreciate
the franc.
The government goes before the re-
