EIGHT YEAR OLD GIRL KILLED New York, Sept. 16.—In the hope of branding as an imposter and -a pseudo priest the Rev. Hans Schmidt, the alleged self-confessed slayer of Anna Aumuller, victim of New York's river murder mystery, church authori- ties began a sweeping investigation of Schmidt’s record and his pretentions to ordination. In his cell in the Tombs, with his coat as a pillow, Schmidt slept soundly through the night and arose to partake of a hearty breakfast. He had little to add to his alleged confession in which he is said to have told the police that he killed his victim as she lay in bed, cut up her body in the bathtub of the apartment where he had es- tablished her, wrapped it in five bundles and dropped the bundles in the Hudson river. With a view to clearing the mystery surrounding the murder of eight-year-old Alma Kell- ner, whose mutilated body was found in quick lime in the basement of St. John’s Catholic church in Louisville two years and a half ago, the police soughit to obtain from Schmidt imme- diately some statement of what he might know of the crime. From Au- gust, 1909, till March, 1910, Schmidt was a visitor in Loulsville, not offi- cially connected with any church there, but a guest in the home of Rev, Henry B. Westermann, rector of the Church of the Immaculate Con- ception. 'PEACHES FED TO CATTLE Fruit Rots on Ground Beneath Heavily Bearing Orchards, New Haven, Conn.

THAW’S COUNSEL HAVE PLANS Concord, N. H., Sept. 16.—The offi- cial request of the state of New York for the extradition of Harry K. Thaw was filed at the office of Gov- ernor Felker in the statehouse by Bernard Jacobs, a lawyer of Lan- caster, N. H,, who was acting for the New York authorities. Governor Felker's desk was buried beneath a pile of letters and telegrams relating to the Thaw case. Most of these messages appeared to be the result of a movement originating in Kansas to create sentiment favorable to Thaw. Montreal, Sept. 16.—Harry K. Thaw’s lawyers have not given up hope of bringing him back to the Dominion. T. K. La Flamme, one of their number, announced in court that he and his associates still ex- pecfed to ask the appeal court of Quebec for a decision on the con- ~etitatlonality of the immigration-awt] fnvoked when Thaw was hustled across the Canadian border into Ver- mont. Six of Thaw’s legal staff appeared before the appeal court to see what Chief Justice Archambault and his associates would do to the immigra- tion officers for disobeying the court’s writ of habeas corpus when Thaw wag suddenly deported. To their disappointment the court, instead of meting out summary punishment, ad- journed the proceedings until Thurs- day. Fingers Cut In Saw ‘Shortly before closing time last night Ed.

Officials here were inclined to be- lieve the Americans were in no grave danger. Agents of the constitutional- ist movement stoutly maintained the Americans were in no danger at all and would be protected by constitu- tionalist forces against any roving marauding bands. Ofiicials of the con- sular service pointed out that the Americans passed Parras on Sept. 11. That town is in the hands of the constitutionalist troops, having been taken last May. An American consul- ar agent recently took twelve days with a fast automcbile to make the run between Torreon and Saltillo. The fugitives, hampered by women and children and move primitive means of transportation, are expecied to require much longer. The refugees were from points along the Western' coast of Mexico and they brought repetitions of stories of refu- gees who preceded them. Western Mexico is in a state of anarchy, they said. Rebel chiefs do not recognize each other and when they are not looting and committing murder they are fighting among themselves. Ameri- cans from the state of Durango as- serted conditions there are beyond description. They said the country is overrun with bands of drunken peons who commit unspeakable crimes. The constitutionalists have been given to understand that the Upited ‘States looks to them for the prot,ectlon of the fugitlves. o ... AMERICAN ENGINEER KILLED Refugees Tell of His Murder by Mexi- cans. San Francisco, Sept. 16.—Word of the murder of Morris P. Root, Ameri- can superintendent of the El Tigre mines at Tepic, Mex., was brought here by the steamer Peru, which had nearly 100 refugees aboard. The min- ing engineer was intercepted by a few bandits as he was on his way to join employes of the company who were preparing to defend the mine prop- erty. He was disarmed and cut to pieces. Root was fifty vears old and had been in Mexico about sixteen years. Max Lambert, another American engineer, who arrived on the Peru, was left for dead by bandits who at- tacked his home in the state of Tepic. Lambert’s wife and child escaped by crawling through a rear window and he remained to greet the bandits whose approach was noticed when they were a mile away. They frac- tured his skull and left him for dead. ‘When they departed Mrs. Lambert re- turned and secured aid. WILL LEAVE PUBLIC LIFE Congressman Burke of South Dakota to Retire. Plerre, S. D., Sept. 16.—Congress- man Charles H. Burke of this city gave out the following statement: “My physical condition the past year has caused me to consider the advisability of retiring from public life and I have contemplated for some time not being a candidate for re-election. I have now decided not to be a candidate for the reason stat- ed and for the same reason will not be a candidate for any other office. “I am deeply grateful to the people of South Dakota for their long con- tinued confidence, and particularly to those personal friends who have for 80 many years made my political suc- cess possible.
