C. Lilly, 55, sentenced to life imprisonment in 1920 for the murder of two men at the Little Port Arthur, Alaska, jumped to his death at the Federal penitentiary today after attacking Senior Offi- cer Lewis Kelley, 47, and beating another prison guard. Kelley is in a serious condition. Termed a “problem prisoner” by Warden Hunter, Lilly was given a pass to leave the shoe shop where he worked to appear before the disciplinary court, charged with visiting the cell house frequently without permission. Instead the pri- soner went to B cellnouse and at- tacked Kelley with a wooden shoe hammer. Clarence Bergman, guard,| rushed to Kelley's assistance. { The prisoner then ran out of the office. Inmates said Lilly was shouting, “I've done 24 years; now going to. get me. I think ed Kelley,” and jumped from | the fourth tier of the cellhouse striking his head on the concrete floor 35 feet below, and died in- stantly Lilly was one of three men on a ch at Little Port Arthur t fire and survivor Pinned to Lilly’s thing was e which said, ol guil of murder in this case, and w ted on pure he nd cir itial evid m tired of time under such cirmum- tances and hope to even motor laur when t nch cav he m not SCOTE 1 you monkeys. b <indly send my money, violin " to my mother, Mrs wa Lilly, Box 341, Oroville, Cal- ARMISTICE NOW URGED ON FINLAND Meanwhile,MH‘elsinki Is Bombed by 600 Rus- sian Planes STOCKHOLM, Feb. 28—The Fin- | nish newspapers continue to pr pare the people for momentous de- velopment, perhaps a Government decision this week as to whether Finland will get out of the war| with Russia.

The conservative newspaper Ussi Suomi indicated the issue has been boiled down to a point on Soviet guarantees of the safety of the Finnish people and a rances they can continue to be free.
