INSULL WARRANT ONVHAY TOATHENS President Signs Extradition Papers for Former Utili- ties Operator. An extradition warrant for Samuel | Insull, sr, former Chicago utilities | operator, signed late yesterday by Pres- ident Hoover, was on its way to Athens, Greece, today. Together with other documents in | the case, the warrant was placed in a| diplomatic pouch and sent to New York last night to be dispatched by the fast- est steamer to the American legation in the Greek capital. Insull is charged with larceny and embezzlement. Upon arrival in Athens, where Insull s under arrest at the request of au- thorities here, the presidential war- rant will be authenticated by the Amer- fcan officials for presentation at an early date to Greek authorities for fur- ther action. Arzaignment Will Follow. After these formalities, the defend-| ant will be arraigned in a Greek court, where the legal aspects of the case will | be considered to determine whether all | requirements have been fulfilled with reference to a recently effected extra- dition treaty between the United States and Greece, which make larceny and | embszzlement offenses extraditable. The American application in the pro- eeedi vill be handled by two Tllinois Sta attorneys, Charles A. Bellows | and Andrew J. Viachos, now in Athens, | | in co-operation with the American le- gation. Backed by Treaty. The extradition Tequest of President Hoover was based on a treaty which became effective “November 1. Insull was first arrested October 11 soon after his arrival in Athens from Paris, but Wwas released the next day by the Athens lice, as the long-contemplated extra- tion treaty had not yet become effec- tive. At the request of the American le- gation, Insull was again arrested on No- vember 5 and taken to-a hospital on account of his age and near nervous breakdown. Insull's counsel said the recently en- acted treaty is not retroactive in the case of his client. M. J. INSULL HEARING PUT OFF. Adjournment Granted to Allow More * Time to Take Deposition.

By Cable to The Star. ROME, November 18—The gruesome “mystery of train No. 7"—the fiendish murder and dismemberment of a young woman, parts of whose body have been to offer possibilities of solution. The police of Spezia have discovered that a woman named Gianacchini, whose appearance corresponds in gen- eral with that of the murdered wom- an, disappeared a few days ago under circumstances which make it likely that she was the victim. At the same time, it is learned that the Italian newspapers in which the | cismembered body had been wrapped | ;‘em editions published especially for | pezia. Never Reached Spezia. ‘The Gianacchini woman recently left the town of Serravezza near Spezia, be- cause although unmarried she was about to become a mother. She had obtained 1,500 lire ($75) from her own mother to go to Spezia. She seems never to have reached Spezia and no trace of | her has been found. Other women who might b> the| murdered girl have been repor.ed mi ing in Genoa and Turin. A rholo- graph of a Genoese girl is being sent to Naples for comparison with the| deed woman. A description of the man who sup- | posedly left the two suitcases on train | No. 7, has been obtained from a train guard, who says he charged him 17 lire (85 cents) excess baggage fez for the valises. The guard is sald also to have noticed on the passenger’s ticket the name of the station where it was sold. This information is being with- held by the police. Man Bought Papers. A newsdealer at the Pisa Railway Station has reporied that a disin- guished looking Northern Italian bought | from him on the day of the murder copies of English newspapers which correspond in date with those used in wrapping the paris of the body. The buyer of these papers said that the cates did nol matter, because he wanted this November Sale! Makers | LUXURIOUS FUR TRIMS, L ISHLY USED. MANCHUR WOLF — BADGER — VICUN OTHERS.

The discovery yesterday in Rome of a third traveling bag containing the wom- | an’s hands and feet has given rise to | the belief that the bearer of the valises traveled twice over the same railway line within 24 hours, demonstrating an almost insane coolness.

(Copyright. 1932 HURLEY OPPOSES PHILIPPINE BILLS| quate to Creation of Inde- pendent Nation. Still firmly opposed to Philippine in- dependence legislation pending in Con- gress, Secretary of War Hurley said yesterday he regards the Hawes-Cutting and Hare bills as inadequate measures for the creation of an independent Filipino nation. Should Congress decide at the short session to liberate the islands, however, 2nd President Hoover approve, the Sec- retary said he would co-operate in every possible way in drafting 2 bill embody- ing what he believes essential to such legislation. He said he was not familiar with resident Hoover's attitude toward the Hawes-Cutting Bill, which, Senate lead- ers have said, is almost sure of pas- sage, nor the Hare measure, which stands approved by the House, The Secretary held a long conference with W. Cameron Forbes, former Am- bassador to Japan and member of the Wood Commission to the Philippines, who proposed to the Senate committee the so-called “Forbes amendments” to the Hawes-Cutting bill by which Amer- ican control of the islands would re- main effectively absolute until a date of complete independence. Hurley's annual report to Congress has been prepared and is in the Gov- ernment Printing Office. His recom- mendations concerning independence will be essentially the same as those he made last year following & personal tour of the islands. o Defer Election of Officers.

Defense Attorneys Frank L. Ball, brother of the defendant, and Capt. Crandal Mackey did not file any de- murrers or motions to quash, as had been expected by the prosecution. The delay on the arraignment had been granted for the purpose of preparing such motions. In view of the indecision of the g:-oucumon as to which of the three dictments it will use in the forth- coming trial, the case was continued until the December term of court, at which time a date for the trial will be set. This, it was said, will prob- ably be in January. The defense attempted to gain & further delay in the arraignment on a claim that they had understood the prosecution was going to trial on in- dictment No. 3 and had prepared their plea of not guilty to that indictment. | Douglas intimated, however, that he might desire to go to trial on indict- ment No. 1, which, the defense claimed, it had not had an opportunity to prop- erly study. Judge McCarthy refused the delay on the ground that it made little difference inasmuch as there were to be no demurred or motions to quash.

A trio of overcoat giants at midget prices Nowadays, any overcoat worthy of its name must be able to stand a tough beating for at least a couple of years. It’s a sad note that so many can’t take it! In the process of scaling down the price, they’ve also been stripped of all stamina. There’s no room for any of these “one-day-wonders” among The Bond Huskies! ® Before a fabric wins a place in this group, it must pass the toughest of all tests — the rubbing test. A special machine rubs the fabric hard. If it shows signs of wear before the 6500th rub, out it goes. And that’s more wear than you’ll give your overcoat in at least 2 years @ In the line-up of Bond Huskies, you’ll see every style from Bouclé to Polo— and you’ll pay no plus for their premium performance.
