Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, December 20.—Bea- trice Schneider, 20 months old, went home vesterday from Long Island City Hospital to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Schneider of East New York. Surgeons consider her case one of the most remarkable that institu- tion has had. The little girl went to the hospi- tal six weeks ago, suffering with mastolditis, from which developed sinus troubls, making It necessary to tie off her jugular vein. The opera- tion was 8o serious that the child seemed without chance to survive. A physiclan suggested a blood transfusion, and gave eight ounces of his own blood. She improved, but re- lapsed. Four more transfusions fol- lowed, her father submitting to two transfusions, her mother to one and an aunt, Yetta Shephard, another. In all, the child had eight major operations. Hospital authorities are confident that Beatrice wil! grow up to be a big and healthy girl. 12 DEPORTEES ESCAPE. Flee When Schooner Runs Aground on Poict Judith. NEWPORT, R. L, December 20.— The packet schooner Romance, New Bedford to the Cape Verde Islands, which went aground on FPoint Ju- dith, limped into port here with word that six members of the crew and 12 Bravas, who were being deported had escaped during a storm Sunday morning. One of the fugitives is 2 woman, Dolinda Barros. Capt. Hippolite Lamas said he thought the escape was made in a boat which put out from shore while the schooner was anchored in Buzzard's Bay. Immi- gration Inspector Willlam Clark of Providence held a preliminary in- quiry, but detained no one. Capt. Lamas immediately left for New Bed- ford to ald Immigration Inspector John G. Hagberg there in rounding up the fugitives, who had been held under guard in_Providence for three months before being shipped on the Romance.

By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, December 20.—The Kid McCoy family skeleton of heredi- tary insanity will sit well up in front at ‘the closing sessions of McCoy's trial on a charge of murdering Mrs. Theresa Mors last August, it was in- dicated when the defense rested its case late yesterday., The death of Mrs. Mors was sul- cide, not murder, according to testi- mony offered in his own behalt by McCoy. After he had finished, the other side of his twofold defense was revealed in depositions describing his father, mother and younger sister as victims of unsound mentality. To a crowded courtroom the former pugilist described In words, at times supplemented with pantomime, how he struggled with Mrs. Mors, when, discouraged over her troubles and de- termined “to end it all,” she took a bread knife and attempted to plunge it Into her heart; how she then, de- spite his struggle to save her, snatch- ed a pistol from the table at which they had been eating and fired a bul- let inte her head. Started to Kill Self. At first he tried to stop the flow of blood, he said, but at last, realizing that she was dead, gave up to bitter d air and determined to end his life. He lay down beside the body and prepared to send the remaining bullets of the pistol into his own body. Why he did not kill himself then McCoy did not remember. He became dazed, he explained to the jury and his mind left him. *1 don’t even remember ever leaving " he sald. Here, after McCoy had clung to the essential facts of his narrative through spirited cross-examination, the depositions concerning insanity offered what defense counsel referred to as an explanation of McCoy's “probable mental condition” at the time. The depositions contained the testi- mony of residents of the Selby family’s home community in Indiana and stated that both Frank and Mary E. Selby, parents of the defendant had been of “unsound minds” and “at times mentally deficient,” while his sister Mabel was insane in 1915. Ar- ‘uments to the jury will begin Mon- ¥, with a possibility that the case may be in the hands of the jury be- fore Christmas. There was no sesslon today. —_— She is making good at 1t, too.

Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, December 20.—Pound- ing at the door roused the caretaker of the Salvation Army headquarters at Hempstead, Long Island. He found an excited man at the door, who de- manded that he be allowed to search a collection of old shoes from Glen Cove, which agents had made that day. The visitor, a Glen Cove physician, whose name was withheld, was ad- mitted.. He attacked the pile of old shoes like a hungry terrier after a bone. When nearing the bottom of the plle he uttered a cry of joy and grabbed an old patent ieather shoe. From this he extracted a dlamond ring valued at $1,100. The physician had bought the ring for his wife and secreted it In the shoe. Returning home last night he learned that his wife had given the shoe and its mate to the Salvation Army. After telephoning for hours he learned that the Hempstead branch had collected from Glen Cove during the day, and began his successful hunt. —— ARMY HISTORIAN GOES TO ATTEND CONVENTION Lieut. Col. C.
