HALE 1S CONVICTED IN OSAGE SLAYINGS Attorneys Announce Appeal to Be Taken to Circuit Court. Convict Witness Flees. By the Assoclated Press. OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., October 80.—Four years of Investigation of the Oklahoma Osage Indian country “reign of terror,” in which nearly a score of persons met mysterious deaths, have resulted in the convic- tion in Federal Court here of Wil- Nam K. Hale, wealthy cattleman, as the alleged leader of the slayers. Known as “King of the Osage Hills,” because of his extensive ranch holdings, Hale was arrested by State agents nearly a year ago with John Ramsey, cowboy rancher, on a arge of dynamiting the home of W. E. Smith, who, with his Indian wife and a white servant girl, was killed in_the explosion. The State charged Hale plotted to kill the family to obtain control of a large fortune secured by Smith's Osage wife from ofl royalties. Government Took Case. With the finding of more bodies in frolated places, the Government en- tered the case, and when Henry Roan, Osage tribesman, was found shot to death in a pasture, Hale and Ramsey were charged with the mur- der. The Government claimed juris- diction_and the men were convicted in Federal Court here yesterday. RBoth were sentenced to life imprison- ment. Conviction of Hale and place: the Ramsey three of the allezed leaders of ring” under life sen- Burkhart, a_nephew »usly confessed after a at he was implicated in killings. He also was sen- tenced to life imprisonment, after naming Hale as the instigator of the piot. Kvidence throughout the Burkhart and Hale trials was to the effect that Hale planned the killings and hired to slay the wealthy Indians. “murder the Smith gunmen Ramsey confessed several months ago that he lured Roan to the pasture and shot him to death on a promies that Hale would give him $500 and an automobile. Convicts Gave Testimony. Ramsey later repudiated the con- fession, claiming Government agents had obtained it under duress, which the secret service men denfed. Witnesses at the two trials included several convicts serving long terms in warious middle western prisons. Dewey Self, a ‘“squaw man,” serving a 25- year term in the Federal prison at Leavenworth, who was one of the last to testify, escaped from a hotel here last night. He was convicted of us- ing the mails to defraud. Hale’s attorneys night sald they would appeal the verdict to the Circult Court of Appeals MULLIKIN FAVORED | Senator ‘AS LESSER OF 2 EVILS’ Women of Maryland Enforcement Club Demand Outspoken Candidates.

PURCELLVILLE, Va., October 30. —Mr. and M Fenton Thomas Ross of The Trappe, this county, celebrated their golden wedding anniver: cently, having with them at this time Dr. Fenton C. Ross, Richmond; Mr. J. Earle Ross, Mrs. Elizabeth Leith Roes, Messrs. Richard, Rob Theodore Ross, Alexandria ;M Turr of Cleveland, Ohio: Messrs. Tur- ner J. Ross, sr., and Turner J. Ross, WI (Continued from First Page.) control the Republican party. That is their aim, even though they bring about the election of a wet Democrat in Wadsworth's place in the Senate. Their hope is that once Wadsworth is defeated, there will be a new deal and a new leadership among the Re- publicans and that the new leadership will be committed to prohibition. On the other hand, a victory for Wadsworth will be a terrible blow to the drys and a real victory for the wets. The drys regard Wadsworth as the real candidate of the wets and their organization. The wets would jfar rather have Senator Wadsworth, a recognized leader in the Senate, than have Wagner, a wet, but unknown nationally and without influence in the upper House. The drys fear that the Democrats will not be able to keep In line for Wagner many of the ultra wets, Reports have it that thousands of wet voters who will support Smith for governor will at the same time support Wadsworth for Senator. It 1s said in many of the cities up State Democratic wets will cast their votes for Wadsworth in preference to Wagner. Senator Fights Courageously. Senator Wadsworth has made a courageous campaign. In the face of dry disaffection in his own party, he has not dodged the wetand-dry issue. He has gone into the dryest territory up State and preached the gospel of liberality and tolerance and has de- nounced prohibition as it has worked out. A sample of the attacks which ‘Wadsworth has launched inst the prohibitionists in sup- bone-dry Sup-tate strongholds “Prohibition has cast a veil of hypocrisy over our whole life. We are hypocritical in private and public about a doubtful virtue. And out of our hypocrisy rises bigotry. Prohi- bition has made neighbor spy upon neighbor and set the tongue of in- tolerance to wagging everywhere. All of us can see these results. But where are the rewards of prohibi- tions? Prohibition has had a falr trial and has failed. The time has come to correct our errors No mincing of words there. Yet Judge Wagner has undertaken to tell the voters that Wadsworth has straddled the prohibition issue, that he has not always been so sincere in his opposition to the dry laws. It is doubtful that the arguments of Judge Wagner have convinced many of his hearers, however. Effect of Defeat on Drys. It is easy to understand that if Senator Wadsworth wins the Anti- Saloon League's influence with the New York Republican party will have vanished. The d while able to prevent the inclusion of a wet plank in the Republican plat- form adopted at the State conven- tion, were yet not strong enough to prevent the nomination of wet can- didates for Senator and governor. Mills .is regarded as a wet as well as Wadsworth. If Wadsworth is now elected and Mills should in some surprising manner squeeze through to victory, the ousting of the drys and the Anti-Saloon League will have been complete. Convinced that the swing is now well started toward an old-time vic- tory for Gov. Smith, the Democratic organization is bending its efforts to the election of Wagner. It realizes that if it can elect a second Unitéd States Senator and retain __,control in the executive mansion at Albany, it will have the Empire State well in hand, and the Republicans completely disorganized. This is the Democratic goal with 1928 in view. The Wagner campaign managers are counting on recelving the great majority of the votes of German- Americans. Wagner came as an im- migrant boy from Germany to this country when he was 8 years old. Much of this German-American vote is Republican, and much of it is wet, and on hoth counts ordinarily would go for Wadsworth. The Wagner peo- ple also lay claim to the railroad labor vote because of Wadsworth's opposi- tion to the Adamson eight-hour law. Much of the La Follette vote in New York in 1924 came from the railroad workers and their familles, and La Follette polled upward of 400,000 in this’ State. Wagner is a member of the Lutheran Church. Republicans Have Hope. Republican leaders insist that since the State convention there has been a great change among the Republican drys—that they -are coming over more and more to the support of the Republican ticket, including Wads- worth. Particularly, they say, this is true among the men. The upstate Republicans may be dry, it is sald, but first they are party men. Furthermore, the Republicans in- sist that the Wagner campaign has been ineffective. Wagner has been the sideshow, while Gov. Smith has oc- cupled the middle ring in the big tent. Smith and Wagner have been speaking frequently to the same audi- ences. Smith has had the lion's share of the publicity, and Wagner has been of the also-ran type. He has been dwarfed into insignificance. Among the campaigners for Crist- man is Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, head of the National and Interna- tional Woman Suffrage Associations and honorary president of the League of Woman Voters. She-is speaking constantly for the inde- pendent dry candidate. The women who fought for suffrage have mnot forgotten entirely the stand which Senator Wadsworth took against the suffrage amendment when it was be- fore the Senate for consideration. Referendum Victory Seen. While this wet and dry fight is waging in the senatorial contest, the wet and dry referendum on the bal- lots this year has been lost to sight to a very considerable degree. The voters are called upon to say whether they desire Congress to amend the Volstead act so as to per- mit the Individual States to specify what is and what is not intoxicating liquor instead of having Congress determine this matter. Under such modification of the law, one State could permit the sale of light beer, for example and even wine of a small alcoholic content. The drys have assalled this referen- dum as unconstitutional and inef- fective. The Anti-Saloon League and the Women's Christian Temperance Union have advised their members to concentrate upon_the election of dry candidates to office, i.e, to vote for Cristman and against Wads- worth. In view of the attitude of these dry organizations, it is ex- pected that no more than two-thirds of the dry strength will be registered against the proposal in the referen- dum. The victory of the referendum is almost a foregone conclusion. Senator Wadsworth may win in the fare of all the opposition which has developed to him. He is con- fident of victory. But the chances for him are not overbright. BOTH PARTIES FIRE FINAL BROADSIDES AS ELECTION NEARS (Continued from First Page) took no active part in the campalgn, every member of his cabinet went into the field in the fight the Repub- licans have made to retain thelr work- ing majorities in both the House and Senate. Democrats Deny Prosperity. Big guns of the Democratic party also were unlimbered to support the work of their campaign committees, which furnished an almost dally grist of statements characterizing Coolidge prosperity as a myth and Republican economy as a day dream. With loud voice the Democrats de- manded tax reduction at this session of Congress, charging openly that it was the deliberate purpose of the President and the leaders of his party to defer tax reduction for political ef- fect in the 1928 presidental campaign, <pite a large surplus now in the V. ariff revision downward was another demand and this at one time led to a personal verbal tilt between Chairman Butler of the Republican nntional committee, who is seeking re-election to the Semate from Massa- Chairman Oldfield of cam- chu and the tic congressional paign committee. Stress also was laid by the Demo- crats on the failure of the Republican Congress to enact farm relief legisla- tion, while the Coolidge administra- tion became a target on the ground that it had fostered monopolies. Revelations before the Senate cam- paign funds committee of huge ex- penditures on Republican primaries this year in Pennsylvanta and Iilinois also were seized upon by the’Demo- crats. They denounced what was de- nominated “Vareism" and. accused the opposition party with counte- nancing the debauchery of the elec- torate. DOG HONOR.S AWARDED.

CHARGED WITH ARSON. Richmond Couple Face Trial in Connection With Store Fire. Special Dispatch to The Star. RICHMOND, Va., October 30.— ‘Warrants have been served on Annie and Harry Mollen, alleging arson in the woman's case, and conspiring to defraud an insurance company against both. The Mollens conducted a store here until July 19, when fire wrecked the place and contents. The Mollens presented a claim for in- surance to the amount of $2,500. Officers of the Fire Department did not determine the cause of the fire. Detectives investigated and traced a large quantity of goods, sald to have been taken from the Moilen store be- fore the fire, to a room two miles from the scene. Morris and Herman Browdy, brothers of Mrs. Mollen, were arrested on the charge of having aid- ed and abetted the removal and secreting of the goods. The goods were removed to police headquarters. The warrant charging arson was issued against Mrs. Annie Mollen, who is charged with having set fire to the place. Her husband, Harry Mol- len, is charged with alding and abetting. G_STAR, WASHINGTO: 'WADSWORTH RACE IS IN DOUBT. TH NEW YORK G. O. P. SPLIT LYON PARK TAKES PRIZE IN CLEAN-UP Announcement Made at Mass Meeting Celebrating Ar- lington Achievement. Special Dispatch to The Star. CLARENDON, Va., October 30— Lyon Park was adjudged the commu- nity putting forth the best effort and presenting the most attractive appear- ance during and following the county- wide clean-up campaign, conducted this week under .direction of the cleaner county committee of the Ar- lington County Civic Federation. An- nouncement was made at a mass meeting held last night in Washing- ton Lee High School Auditorium, in celebration of what was considered a “very successful undertaking.” Mrs. Ruby Lee Minar, chairman of the general campaign committee, who presided, in opening the meeting de- clared that success was due in a great measure to the splendid co-operation of all of the citizens; the county offl- cials, ministers of the county, the florists and railroad companies. The close of this campaign, Mrs. Minar said, will not end the work of beauti- fying Arlington County. The cleaner county committee, she said, will go on with the idea of making Arlington County a garden spot of beauty. Organized Citizens Stressed. ‘With “Clvic Pride” as his subject, Maj. E. W. Cushing of Washington district stressed the importange of or- ganized citizenship. A man with civic pride, he said, if he lives up to the full meaning of the words, is a credit to the community. He must be will- ing to take an active interest in civic affairs of his community; support the schools and churches; support the volunteer fire companies; boost, rather than knock; support civic organiza- tions; exercise his right of franchise, and support the public officials. Maj. E. W. R. Ewing of Arlington dis- trict contrasted conditions of the past with those of the present day, paint- ing a vivid picture of a community that has evolved from a veritable wilderness, littered with mudholes, to a delightful and progressive section. He said he was present at the forma- tion of the first civic organization in the county 22 years ago. The growth of the county may be measured by the fact that today there are 36 civic organizations in this, the smallest county of the State. He said it has taken people a long time to wake up to the advantages of Arlington County. Wallace McK. Stowell, treasurer of the Washington Chamber of Com- merce, made a brief address congrat- ulating the citizens on their “wonder- ful strides” in bringing the county to the forefront among the real desirable residential sections.” By virtue of its community winning in the clean-up contest the Lyon Park Citizens' Association was presented a loving cup, the presentation being made by Mrs. Minar. The cup was accepted on behalf of the assoclation by W. D. Lamborne, treasurer. J. C. Tipton, submitting ‘“‘Arlington County, the Capital's Homeland,” was declared the winner in the coun- ty slogan contest and was awarded a prize of $50. The honor of having the best kept individual lawn went to the Misses Hawkins of Spruce street, of Lyon Park. Under the leadership of F. B. Brvan the entire assembly sang ict “Carry Me Back to Ole Virginny, “Annie Laurie” and “The Star Sp: gled Banner.” Mrs. Mary Perkins Snyder played the accompaniments on the plano. TORCHES FOR PARADE. 0ld-Fashioned Campaign Close Set for Baltimore. Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, October 30.—The Democratic campaign will be brought to a close in Baltimore tonight with an old-fashioned torchlight proces- sion, something which has not been seen here for a_generation.

C, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1926. (Continued from First Page.) The hour of, departure from that deliclous memory-filled corner of peace came all too soon, and off we flew again over the beautiful smooth road, back to our more official work. The sunlight was bright over all things, as I was driven to the differ- ent parts of the town, so that I saw its beauty before night came on. Impressed by Lincoln Memorial. I was tremendously impressed by the Washington Mounment and by the ingenious way in which it was reflected in the long-shaped pool. As to the Lincoln Memorial, seldom have I seen a more perfect building, which can almost rival the Acropolis and all the temples of Girgentl. Having an eye for detail, I was very much struck by the clever way the evergreen trees and bushes were grouped around it, throwing its magnificent whiteness into stronger relief, so that, with the contrast of the light-green lawn, it made a picture that would satisfy any artist’s eye. Prepare to Visit White House. We made a short stop at our lega- tion, so as to put ourselves into more formal attire, for now the great mo- ment for visiting your President had come. My son put on his uniform, my daughter her smartest dress, and we were solemnly driven to the White House. My Impressions of America By Her Majesty the Queen of Rumania. I was much struck by the solemn dignity of the White House portico. Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge received us with much friendliness, and our conversa- tion was as animated as such an overformal visit would allow. Mrs. Coolidge was charmingly amiable with my young people, putting them completely at their ease, and a. friend- ly spark lit the President’s eye when he looked upon their youth. According to the somewhat absurd custom adopted in every country, hardly were we back in our legation than the President and his wife drove up to our door to pay back our call. They were received with the same ceremony with which we had been re- ceived a quarter of an hour before. This visit, however, ended upon a humorous note: the never-to-be-avoid- ed photographer claimed his rights— that tymnt against whom nelither king nor president can stand up. The President, who had already put on his hat and coat, took them off again and patiently sat down with a resigned face between Mrs. Coolidge and myself, and submitted to the camera.
