Figures varied between the exhibits of the employers and employes. As an illus- tration, there was one all-wool silk- lined suit, offered by the employers as a value of $25. The employes offered one as a typical exhibit for §45. All along the line similar variance was evi- dent. Mrs. Gordon's Figures. Mrs. Spencer Gordon, who conducted an fnvestigation to determine the cost of necessities for a working girl in Washington, presented figures in con- nection with room and board and luncheon. Her showing for the three items was $0.38. The figure of the employers is set at $9.40 per week. -Mrs. Gordon’s report indicated that no rooms were available for white women in Washington for less than £10 per month and that no acceptable rooms for colored women could be found for less than $12 per month. She said a diligent search is necessitated if a girl wishes to find a clean and respectable room for even { $15. Her report stated that rent has in- creased 31.3 per cent since June, 1919, when the figures were set for tie pres- ent_wage scale for women, and that fuel and light have increased 51.3 per_cent Six doilars a week was set as the “absolute minimum” for board where two meals a day were given. She refused to recommend this figure as a health minimum. She said that a wool suit to last two years will cost $39.75, while a winter coat to last the same period will cost an equal amount. A wool dress for two vears' wear, she said, is priced at about $25: summer dresses, $7 each; wool skirts, $7.95, and wash waists, $2 each.

C, SATURDAY, JEWELED FLASK, OWNED TRAPPED BANDIT TAKES OWN LIFE ‘Man Who Escaped Arrest Here by Impressing Aid of School Superintendent. Surrounded by a posse of Maryland farmers, who had chased him for sev- eral miles after he attempted to rob Mrs George H. Shannon, wife of the proprietor- ot a general merchandise store at Fort Foote, Prince Georges county, Malcolm Miller, twenty-eight vears old, of Washington, commit- ted suicide Yyesterday afternoon by firing a _38-caliber bullet into his i brain. MiiTer was positively identified at the District morgue last night as the bandit who robbed the Elite Theater last Sunday afternoon and at the point of a gun made Dr. Frank . Ballou, superintendent of schools, | aid him in making his escape in the school official's automobile. Is Trailed to Fox Ferry. Soon after Miller was frustrated in {his attempt to rob the store, a posse | was organized and trailed him to Fox | {Ferry, "almost opposite Alexandria, | { Va.. on the Maryland side of the Po- tomac rivor Here he boarded a sand ! dredger in charge of Capt. George | Courtney and ordered that he be| tdken across the river without delay. Before getting underway, the posse had-overtaken the bandif, and find- ing his escape impossible, the bandit fired the bullet into his brain and dled almost instantly. Miller's body was later removed to the District morgue, where it was | jldentificd by Dr. Ballou and three jothers. i i Woman's Pluck Saves Cash. i Mrs. Shannon, a small woman, [ weighing not more than 100 pounds. was alone in the store when the bandit entered, und it was due to her pluck that the proceeds of the day's sales, about $300, remained in- tact after the bandit was routed. Passing by the barn in rear of the store, where he made a casual In- vestigation evidently to learn if any men were about, the young man, well dressed, appeared at the store. His appearance, Mrs. Shannon thought, indicated he was a traveling salesman. Following * an inquiry about canned goods, the caller asked Mrs. Shannon if she could change a $20 bill for him, although it devels oped that he did not have one cent in his pocket. “Yes,” was the response of Mrs | Shannon, “I can change a $20 bill a {right.” {, Suddenly the visitor grabbed the llittle woman by the arm, pointed a pistol at her and told her not to give i an alarm, adding that four men were | outside waiting for him. i Knocks Pistol From His Hand. “You must be crazy,” said the lit- {tle woman, not the least bit alarmed. quickly knocking_ the pistol from his hand and calling Mrs. Dora McDonald, housekeeper, to her assistance Miller, fearing capture, picked up his revolver and fled, Mrs. Shannon, unarmed, following him a short dis- | Itanec down the road and seeing the | direction he took through a-clump ot bushes. Mr. Shannon Soon appeared and got busy on the telephonc. He said he was unable to get assistance from a deputy sheriff, the latter say- ing he would come for the man if he were captured. Then Mr. Shannon got | in touch with Detective Frederick M. Cornwell, in charge of the detective force, who gave him assistance. Pursued across several farms to the river front, Miller appeared at the iferry. He was much excited, it Is said, and the ferryman told him he could not make the trip to Alexan- dria until 5:30 o'clock, the scheduled time for starting. “For God's sake, take me across,” was the plea of the hunted man, who followed his plea with a request that his pursuers not be told of his where- abouts. Sald He Owned a Still Questioned as to what he had done | that he should be pursued, Miller told | the ferryman he was blamed for hav- | | i | {ing a still In the woods. Coming {over the hill to the east of the ferry, the ferryman saw the posse. Miller also saw the men und realized there {was no chance to escape unless he could reach the Virginia side of the iriver. He was on a point of land that i was guarded on all sides by the posse. i As a last resort he crossed the | gangplank to the dredge, asked that he be permitted to hide aboard the craft, and, when refused, he used the {weapon con himself. Sergt. C. M. Mundie_of the harbor precinct and {Lieut. M. R. Ready of the eleventh | precinct went to the ferry and con- ducted an investigation. i When the body reached the morgue } the poiice found the name of the dead | !mun initialed on his clothing, and in ! ja coat pocket they found a card| !showing him to have been a member | {of the Sherwood Club, the home of the | organization being not far from Fort i Foote, in Prince Georges county. | Mrs. Shannon Ranked Heroine. | Last night and this morning neigh- ! bors of the Shannons showered Mrs. Shannon -~with congratulations ~be- cause of the plucky fight she made in the successful attempt to frustrate the armed man's efforts to get her husband’s cash.

The canteen when found was still resting in its original plush case. Max Froehlich, in whose house the flash was unearthed, appeared in the limelight as commandant of the Stettin 7allroad station during the November revolution. At that time he was condemned to be shot on charges of illegal eommercial practices, but.was discharged on the ground that he was mentally unbalanced. His present fortune, amounting to from 40,000,000 to 50,000,000 marks, and the discovery of' the former cmperor's flask, which bears the imperial mono- gram, and the stopper of which is set with precious stones, led the authorities to investigate further, and it developed that Froehlich during the revolution had come into the possession of other things from the imperial and crown prince’s palaces. : VOIGT'S FILIBUSTER ANGERS HOLSE One-Man’s Tactics Brings' Vehement Protest From Members. | Members of the House, lovking for- ward eagerly to the adjournment, which House Leader Mondell an-i nounced it is hoped to take next Fri- day, are watching with concern the one-man filibuster being carried on} by Representative Voigt, republican, of Wisconsin. The growing resentment of his col- leagues at the repeated roll calls forced by Representative Voigt on points of “no quorum”® was expressed in_a vehement protest by Repres- entative Goodykoontz, _republican, West Virginia, who declared that the House “ought to govern itself with- out regard to some member who is sore about post offices.” Clearly within his rights, as Speaker Gillett ruled, Mr. Voigt kept the entire membership hopping to the bells during the last two dave and forced two night sessions. The count at 8§ o'clock last night showed thirteen roll calls, each requiring an average of twenty-five minutes, and Mr. Voigt still going strong. But just as rapidly as a quorum was | obtained it scattered. Representative Knutson, Minnesota, the republican “whip,” ‘meanwhile sweating as he stood by the outer door in an effort to keep members in the chamber. i Plead With Voigt. Friends of Mr. Voigt failed to budge him as they pleaded with him to let the business proceed. To all he ex- plained that he had introduced a resolution for investigation of the| appointment of postmausters, that the rules committee had refused to let it come before the House and that| he was determined to keep the House on the job until it was reported. The deficiency appropriation bill finally got through, but the snag was reached when the conference report on the Army bill was taken up. In- sisting upon the reading of the long! report, Mr. Voigt kept his eves on the | printed pages and the clerk did not attempt the time-honored practice of skipping page after page. - As each amendment to the measure was adopted, Mr. Voigt demanded a stand-up vote and invariably it show- ed less than a quorum. The bells clanged, members came racing in,| then raced out. About the time they got back to more comfortable quar- ters there was the same procceding | and again the bells clanged. House Halts Voixt. After Mr. Goodykoontz had protest- { ed Mr. Voigt attempted to speak, but | the House chopped him off. Pages| were ordered to round up all. ab- sentees at thefr homes, clubs, picture | theaters and elsewhere and to inform them the House would stay on the job all night, if necessary, to show | that ope man could not block pro- ceedings. : The filibuster was in full swing when the House adjourned at 10 o'clock, and met an hour earlier than usual today.” 1 Speaker Gillett took official recog- nition of the filibuster, and, on’an ef- fort by Mr. Voigt to prevent the ear- | lier meeting hour, told the Wisconsin member the chair “had been very considerate of him. “A member who wishes to obstruct the business of the House must be acquainted with the parliamentary situation,” said the Speaker, and the House let loose a whoop of approval. ARMY PERSONNEL FIXED AT 125,000, House Approves Conference Report. by Vote of 175 to 39. Enlisted and officer personnel totals for the Army passed the legislative stage when the House adopted the conference report last night by ai vote of 175 to 39 without discussion, and now only the President’s ap- proval men and 12,000 officers. The one-man fillbuster by Rep- resentative Volgt of Wisconsin pre- vented a vote last night on other items in the report, including a Sen-; ate appropriatioh of $7.500,000 to- ward completion of the Wilson dam at Muscle Shoals. . Every Seventh Officer Dropped. Approximately one of every seven officers in the Regular Army will be turned into civil life by January next, the Assoclated Press says, ac- cording to a prellminary estimate made at the War Department of the meaning and effect of the com- promise reached by Senate and House conferees on the Army appropriation bill.
