This was announced late yesterday by Governor Marcus H. Holcomb, after conferring with Con- y gressman E. J. Hill, Republican State Chairman J. Henry Roraback and others. Governor Holcamb said the session would last only one day and that it was unlikely that any other matters would be brought up. Next week he intends to send warrants to the high eheriffs in all the counties in the state, notifying the members to attend the session. Resolutions will be presented to the assembly, the governor said, which would allow the soldiers ta vote not only for national officers, but state officers as well. During the Civil war, practically the same question arose and the Connecticut supreme court ruled that the saldiers could vote for . national officers. There is some doubt in the governor's mind, whether the constitution provides for voting an state officers, but he believes that if the issue is taken to the supreme court, the tribunal will rule in favor ot the men voting far all officers. to Governor Holcomb Decides Yesterday afternoon we ate up all mother’s doughnuts.

In a few hours, however, they had found the body of Lillie Westcamp, a pretty young woman with whom Schalapin had lived in the Twenty- ninth street house as Mr. and Mrs. Schaeffer, locked in a closet of ‘heir flat, and had learned enough to start them looking for Alois Hauswitzer, Schalapin’s landlord. Hauswitzer, who lived with his in- valid wife, baby and sister-in-law, in 319 “West Twenty-ninth street, had been infatuated with the young wom- an, the police say, from the day the Schaeffers moved in, four weeks ago. His attentions had been so markel that the couple had planned to move. Hauswitzer learned of it and the po- lice believe now that he called on the woman, struck her on the head with some weapon and then strangled her while she was senseless. There was a wound on her head and a yel- low sock, the mate of which, the po- lice say they found in Hauswitzer room, had been twisted tightly ar-)und the throat. Photographs of the wom- an, torn into small pieces were sca:- tered over the floor. The police be- lieve Hauswitzer waited for Schalapin on the front steps and tried to blind uim before he could enter his fat and discover the murder. Suspicion was directed to Hauswit- zer because he was not at home Mon- day night or yesterday and in the aft- ernoon a postal arrived from him for his wife in which he wrote: “There is nothing in the newspa- pers yet, but I am guilty. My life is ruined. I hope our baby gets better pleasure during its life and that you will be happy with the baby. Do not use my name for the baby.” The detectlves would not tell where the card had been posted. Later they arrested William Boxr- rows, an elevator runner, 51 years old, who lives at 310 West Twenty-ninth street, as a material witness. GRAND JURY WEEPS AT “SLAVE'S’ STORY Girl Tells How She Was Abused | by Vice Head New York, Aug. 23.—Tears stood in the eyes of grand jurors yesterday when a pale, emaciated girl con- cluded a tale of wrong and suffering endured, she said at the hands of David Parish, alias *“David Siberia,” a former Russian convict, who has been in this city eighteen years. The grand jury promptly indicted him on a white slave charge. There were nine other girl witness- es against the man, but the story which gripped the emotions of the jurors and caused them to take up a purse of §50 for her was told by Ida Cohen. She said she was a poorly paid garment worker in Brooklyn when the strike came two years ago. She came to the east side for assi: ance and was introduced to Parish, who, it is alleged, started her on a career of wrongdoing. Last May, according to her story, when she had been paying money to for him no said, he beat all her money clothing and turned her into the street barefooted. She declares she lived for four days in Delancey Street park and then fainted from hunger and exhaustion A policeman -tcok her to Bellevue hospital, where a few days later she became a mother. Her baby lived.six hours. Detectives heard of her case last Monday and they borrowed clothes for her to go down to the crimina! courts building, where she told j story to James Smith, a ant trict attorney. He took the girl he- fore the grs y vesterday. Parish, s in the house detention with his wife, who has been convicted for attempting to bribe a policeman, was arrested and in the Tombs. “This is the most shocking expns- ure of the workings of the whitc slavery combination that has ever been made,” said Mr. Smith. “We have evidence that this man destroyed more homes and lured more factory girls into vice than any other person discovered in this or any other in- vestigation. He outranks In somc re spects Yushe Botwin, the confea: white slaver.” Parish is fifty-three years old and 1s slovenly in his dre He spent his nights gambling in east side cafes, according to the district attorney, and supplied women for resorts in Or- chard, Suffolk, Allen and adjacent streets. He lived in East Twenty-scc- ond street, near Third avenue. Willlam D.
