The girl had been shot three times and her body was found beyond rec- ognition at the edge of a small wood along a highway. An empty five gallon gasoline can stood nearby. A little powder box, some wisps of dark brown hair, a string of beads, a pair of tortvise shell spectacles and a partially des- troyed Pennsylvania Railroad em- ployee’s cards, are the clues with which it is hoped the mystery may be solved. The girl apparently had been shot where she was found. Two bullets were in her head and one in her side. Her face was badly burn- ed as if in an attempt to destroy completely the identity of the victim. The legs had been hacked off just below the knees and an arm was severed. below the elbow, all appar- ently with a dull axe. Police be- lieve the slayers fired the shots in- to the body and then deliberately started to destroy the identifying marks, gutting the shoes into pieces, mangling one hand and then becom- ing frightened and not waiting to destroy the other hand. The im- prints of balloon automobile tires veering suddenly off the road led to the discovery of the body. Sheriff William Forney hurried to the scene from Valparaiso and said the spectacles were an important clue, pointing to the Leopold-Loeb confessions as the direct result’ of tracing a pair of spectacles. He also! valued the railroad card on which the name had been obliterated but | the inscription still legibly read: “Northwest Region Pennsylvania Railroad No. 1032, | A coroner's physician prepared to} make an examination to determine} whether there had been an attack as evidence pointed to such a theory.

Shepherd, charged with the murder of William Nelson McClintock, his foster son, from whom he inherited a $1,000,000 estate, will be tried May 18, before Judge Lynch. The trial date was set after both sides expressed willingness to go to trial as soon as possible. Dr. C. C, Faiman, apon whose con- fession Shepherd was indicted for murder and a co-defendant with Shepherd did not appear in court, although his case was set automati- cally with that of Shepherd. Faiman is at liberty on $100,000 bond, signed by two policemen of the state’s at- torney’s office without a schedule of Property. The state probably will ask that Faiman be given a separate rial.

OFFICIALS SHOCKED Washington, April 27.—Its psy- hological effect outside of Germany father than what it may portend as/ a new direction in German policies, appears to be the chief concern in official circles here in viewing the triumph of Field Marshal yon Hin- denburg in yesterday’s election. Continued official silence on the} election did not conceal today a re- action of surprise bordering on shock, with the generally held view that Germany has taken a step that | is’ almost certain for a period at| least to hinder her progress toward | recuperation from the war. Besides the suspicion with which | government and diplomatic observ- ers are known to feel will result from the von Hindenburg election, particularly in France, its chief ef- feet for Germany is expected in the result of the attending uncertainties on the attitude of financial inter- ests on both sides of the Atlantic. It is felt that complete execution of the Dawes plan is almost certain to be still further delayed with a consequent effect on the restora- tion of Europe to a sound economic basis and indirectly on American commerce. There appears to be no disposi- | tion here, however, to take the| alarmist view. { FEELING OF INSECURITY —_| Berlin, April 27.-The election of | Field Marshal Hindenburg tol the German presidency reacted un-| favorably on the Bourse today, many | of the industrials dropping two to| five points on account o a fecling of insecurity with respect to the im-| ment seven n th mediate political effect and the ad- verse editorial comment beginning STATE RETAIL MEN TO MEET Program For Convention at Jamestown Is Announced | Jamestown, N.

WINNER OVER WILHELM MARX National Conservative Bloc Sweeps Country Over Republican Party HUGE VOTE IS_ CAST Crush at Polls so Great Two Persons Killed, Many Jn- jured in Clashes (By The Associated Press) Berlin, April 27.—Field Marshal von Hindenburg’s “front porch” campaign, conducted from his home in Hanover, has been successful, and next week he will be inducted into office as the first popularly elected president of Germany. The first president, the late Fried- rich Ebert, was named by the Na- tional Assembly immediately after the revolution which established the Republic, but von Hindenburg was chosen by direct vote of the people. Running as the choice of the N. tionalist Conservative bloc consist- ing of the parties of the united right, he received 14,639,399 votes, or 48.3 per cent of the total valid ballots cast in yesterday’s polling. He obtained a plurality of 836,759 over his principal opponent, former Chancellor Dr. Wilhelm Marx, can- didate of the Republican bloc, who received 13,752,640 votes. The race was close from the start, the two chief candidates running neck and neck almost until the of- ficial count. Von Hindenburg took little active personal part in the fight, and did not even vote himself, but his sup- porters were very busy everywhere waging a strenuous campaign. The women’s votes and the heavy turn- out of former stay-at-homes are be- lieved to have been responsible for his victory over such a seasoned political campaigner as Dr. Marx. Dr. Marx’s supporters also. freely admit that anti-Catholic feeling act- ed strongly against their candidate’s prospects. The Reichstag will reconvene next Tuesday, and von Hindenburg, if he follows established custom will have the Republican oath administered to him some time during the week by the Socialist Reichstag president, Carl Loebe, in the presence of a parliament in which he probably hds more opponents than supporters. The crush at many of the polling places was so great that violent en- counters at times broke out and the police were busily occupied in sep- arating the fighters. More serious trouble occurred at Karlsruhe, where two persons were killed and a number wounded in a clash between Republicans and Na+ tionalist: Disturbances also took place at Ratiboy in Silesia, when an erron- eous announcement was published to the effect that Dr. Marx was lead- ing von Hindenburg by nearly 2,000,- 000 votes. The Nationalists, roused by this, gathered and began march- ing through the streets. Dispersed by the police, they obtained rein- forcements and beseiged the police stations in various towns in the area. Scores of arrests were made. MENACE TO PEACE New York, April 27.—The election of Field Marshal von Hindenburg as president of Germany is a menace to world peace in the opinion of James W. Gerard, former ambassa- dor to Germany. Mr. Gerard today characterized the election as a declaration by the German people of a return to militarism and mon- archism. Prominent Germans here, how- ever, saw in the election hope for a united peaceful nation.
