Former Death House Inmate, Murder Leader
Albert Anastasia, Brooklyn Waterfront Gang Leader, Is So Declared By ProsecutOr-Had Killed
 Five Victims

New York, April 2(UP)-Albert Anastasia, Brooklyn waterfront gang leader, former death house inmate and suspect in at least five mur- ders, was reported today in circles close to District Attorney William ODWyer as suspected of being one of the top men of Murder, Inc.
 The prosecutor would not com- ment, but it was learned that he has been told by other members of the gang that AnastaSia was the higher-up they dealt with al- though they had suspicious that be- yond him there might be others, perhaps able to provide political protection.
 Anastasia and his first lieutenant, Joseph Florino, are both fugitives. They have been closely allied since 1920 and 1921 when they spent 18 months in the Sing Sing death house for the killing of Joseph Turello. They were granted new trial and were acquitted. The four principal witnesses in the first trial meanwhile had been murdered.
 AnaStaSia was suspect m the murder of John Bazzanno, Pitts burgh gangster who was stabbed, strangled and cut to pieces in 1892. Florino is an expert marksman with rife. Giuseppe Perino, called 'The Clutching Claw" because the fingers of one hand are paralyzed, was shot to death with a single bullet in a street outside Florino's apartment. Florino was released when no direct

Democrats Make Some
 Changes In Committee
Thirteen New Members Are Added to Town Commit tee-"Old Liners" Have Now But Little
 Representation in the Group

Thirteen new members were elected to the Democratic town committee at the adjourned town convention at The Elton last night. The new changes, along with those effected during the reorganization" drive last fall, leave only hand full of "old line" Democrats on the town committee. Some of those dropped last night had been on the committee for many years.
 The 13 new members were among total of 32 town committeeman elected. The mems group will meet during the week to elect 32 women members of the town committee. The full town committee of GA will then select a chairman and other officers and also choose an executive committee of 15.
 Slate Is Adopted
 The town committee slate was adopted after the delegates had voted down a proposal that the con- vention elect the 32 women as well as the 32 men. The opposition to this move was led by Corporation Counsel J. Gregory Lynch, who di- rected the administration forces as he did when the convention met a week ago.
 Some of the former town com mitteemen withdrew because of the retirement of Joseph F. Mulville as chairman. Others were dropped be- cause they had supported Senator George T. Culhane in the primary fight with Mayor Vincent Scully last fall. Others of those failing of re- election were ineligible because they had moved to new districts. Two of the 13 new members had been Serv- ing as acting town committeeman.
 Some of Those Dropped
 One of those removed from the town committee list was William Dunlavey, former chairman and vice.

Allentown, Pa., April 2-(UP)- The state places Margaret L. Cow an, IT years old, on trial for her life today. In spirit of compassion, she killed her insane sister.
 At the insistance of her counsel, the state had been forced to try her on a capital charge. The indictment had charged both murder and in voluntary manslaughter. Counsel objected that this was faulty and involuntary manslaughter was stricken.
 Miss Cowan, q small thin woman, who looks younger than her years, and appears in excellent physical condition, went to the courtroom from the prison where she was lodged August 15 when she killed with a pistol Mrs. Louella A. Saeger, 67, q patient in the Allen town State Hospital for the insane,
 Her attitude then and now was pLiloSopjlic. She was satisfied witlI her deed and willing to accept its

consequences. Her sister was a vic- tim of paranoia, generally consid- cred incurable. It tortures its sub jects with delusions of persecution. Paranoics usually are dangerous enough to be confined and such had been the case of Mrs. Saeger.
 Miss Cowan is a retired nurse. Graduated from the PittSburg Homeopathic hospital, she served many well known families, includ- ing those of the late Charles M. Schwab and George Westinghouse. She retired 20 years ago and for the last four years lived alone in 6 one room apartment in QuakertoWn, l8 miles from here.
 Mrs. Saeyer had been an inmate of the insane hospital for several years, constantly visited by a de- voted sister. On August Is, Miss Cowan went there with her huS- band, John s. Saeger, pistol in her purse and her arms laden with fruit and flowers.
 First she induced her sister to

 On the Guarter-deck of the flag ship Pennsylvania with Admiral James O. Richardson was Secretary of the Navy Charles A. Edison, who will watch the mock battles Tor about two weeks.
 Last shore leave was over last night at Il o'clock, and every man and officer took his place for seven weeks of simulated war. AS the ships prepared to slip out ot har- bor, lgihts were lowered as though enemies lurked beyond the break water.
 The huge armada, with con- tingent based at San Diego, com prised 14O ships, 800 planes and 45 900 men.
 Secretary Edison joined Admiral Richardson on the Pennsylvania yesterday afternoon. His flag was hoisted to the main truck, and as he greeted the commander -in-chief of the feet, a 19-gun salute was fired.

NO GAS STATION ON COOKE ST.
Board of Aldermen Vote Is
 Overruled in Daniel T. Harrington Case

Upper Cooke street will still be without a gasoline station, despite the fact that the city's board of aldermen voted to change the zon- ing ordinance to permit Daniel T Harrington permission to erect a station near the junction of Cooke street and WoodlaWn terrace.
 Judge Frank P. McEvoy in a memorandum of decision filed in the superior court today sets forth that the board of aldermen in granting MT. Harrington permission to erect the station, which involved chang ing the particular locality from the residential to a business zone acted illegally and exceeded its power un- der the zoning statutes and or dinance.
 The appeal to the superior court was taken by Max Blumen and other residents in the vicinity of the pro- posed new gasoline station.
 Contents of Decision
 Judge McEvoy says in his de- cision: Judgement is for the plain tiffS and the appeal of the plaintiffs is sustained and the order of the board of aldermen is vocated."
 The case was brought by MT. Blu men and the other plaintiffs against Patrick Carlin, former city building inspector, former Mayor Frank Hayes, as mayor, and MT. Pairing ton, who desired to erect the gaso- line station. Fifteen plaintiffs were involved in the action.
 The property involved was pur- chased on July 10, 1885 by Carl Riley and a few days later conveyed to the defendant, MT. Harrington.

 The Wyoming pardon board heard Mrs. McKinley's plea for clemency in January but refused to free her Sheriff w. R. Silver, of Douglas Wyo., told the board that she had left her husband to run away with another man.
 This man, he said, was the father of the child. Silver said he had disappeared.
