Arbitrate Chicago, March 30.—(AP)—April 1, anniversary of the general shut- down in union bituminous coal fields, apparently will be celebrated this year with many Illinois miners again idle, Following the breakdown of nego- tiations between operators and miners’ officials in Chicag., various Tenorts came from all sections of the state. Many large operators announced orders have been posted for employes to remove their be- gine vesiegegs in preparation for clos: tl oe _cigsine the Loge From that 12 mines there would remain ppen “The minérs’ union at Spring- field announcéd nine mines, three in Daneite: ‘one in Cuba, of é J.

The hearing on his application for release on a wr:. of habeas cor- pus opened on February 20 and con- tinued about two weeks while alien- ists and Remus himself took their turns in the witness chair. Remus attorneys did not call him and the state demanded the reason, They were told that he was available to them if they wanted him and he was summoned then for cross-exam- ination. For three days he testified as to the most minute details of his life, adding about 150,000 words to the record of the hearing. Murder Occurred October 6 Remus. killed his wife, Imogenc, as. she was riding through a Cincin- nati park the morning of October 6, 1927. . He surrendered immediately and entered a plea of “temporary. maniacal insanity.” Remus, an attorney, acted as one of his own defense counsel during his trial for murder. He testified he had been tortured by his wife’s alleged infidelity with Franklin L. Dodge, Jr., Lansing, Mich., a former department of justice agent who was largely responsible for sending the former bootleg chieftain ‘to the At- lanta penitentiary for violation of the liquor laws. After a trial of a month, a jury returned @ yerdict of “not guilty by reason of insanity” 20 minutes after m the case, Ha ‘county, . probate court, however; adjudged him insane and committed’ him to. the hospital. Remus immediately began another fight to secure his freedom, filing the 8 corpus action on the - his commitment papers were aulty. . Went to Hospital Voluntarily Remus voluntarily came to the state hospital for the criminal in- sage here after a six-weeks trial for the murder of his estranged wife, Imogene, in Cincinnati re- sulted in a verdict of acquittal on the sole ground of insanity, and the finding of insanity was confirmed in the Hamilton county probate court, The acquittal of Remus produced a scandal in Cincinnati when the jurors who sat in the case, ten men and two women, joined in petition- ing the court in collateral matters after the trial. _It was brought out that the jury hit upon the acquittal upon the sole (Continued on page two) ALLEGED KNIFE SLAYER LODGED IN COUNTY JAIL Wisconsin Man Heeds Pleas of Wife and Gives Self Up to Officers Merrill, Wis., March 30.—(?)— Heeding the ee of his wife that he give himself up, John Kauranen, alleged knife slayer of Marvin with urder after hiding since Monday in the dense woods. of Price county.
