SPANNEL ON TRIAL FOR DOUBLE MURDER Case of Texan to Open Tomorrow At San Angelo 15.—When the » San Angelo, Jan case of Harry J. annell, charged with killing his wife and Lieut. Col. Butler at Alpine, last July was called In district court today, postponement . was granted until tomorrow because of non-arrival of several witnesses. ‘Were on Auto Ride. The killing in, Alpine, "Tex., of Ligutenant-Colonel C. M.. Butler, of the Sixth United States Cavalry, and Mrs. Harry J. Spannell by Harry J. Spannell whijle: the.thres were..auto- obiling on July 20, 1916, and for wthich the “latter was'indicted on & % charge of murder, caused a sensation among army men on the Mexican bor- .der. Spannell was indicted by - the s grand jury at /Alpine on a charge of ~murder but because of the local feel- ng it was deemed advisable to grant “a change of venue and the trial was “set for San’ Angelo. A Spannell was & music teacher at Baylor ‘eollege at Waco, Aex., when #he married Crystal Holland, the daughter of Colonel John Holland, a wealthy cattle man of Western Texas. Later Spannell went to Alpine with his wife, where he assumed the man- agement of the Holland hotel which was owned by Mrs. Spannel's father. ‘Mr. and Mrs. Spannell made their home at the hotel. Tt was there that they mét Lieuten- ant-Colonel Butler when the army of- ficer came to Alpine in command of the cavalry troops on that part of the border. Lieutenant-Colonel Butler "made his headquarters at the Holland fiofel and became the friend of Mr. and Mrs. Spannell. * On the évening of the tragedy Span- nell drove up to the door of the hotel §n his automobile and invited Lieuten- ant-Colonel Butler to accompany him and Mrs. .Spannell for a ride. When only a shart distance from the hotel and on the principal street of the lit- tle town, shots.yvere heard from the Spannell automobile and Mrs. Span- nell was found in a dying condition in the rear seat of the car with Lieu- teant-Colonel Butler's body beside her. Her death followed soon after. Spannell gave himself up but re- fused to make any statement regard- ing the tragedy. ¥ Col. Butler Held Blameless. Because of the prominence of the victims, a board of inquiry was ap- pointed from the army to make an in- vestigation of the facts leading up to the tragedy. This board completely exonerated Lieutenant-Colonel Butler from any blame and the report stated that the army officer’s friendship for AMr. and Mrs. Spannell was honorable and his conduct above reproach at all times. Tieutenant-Colonel Butler was the son of Major General Calvert Mathew Butler (retired) of South Carolina Wwho was a United States senator at one time. His wife was the daughter of a leading family of RICHARD L. WATSON TO SPEAK. On Sunday next the second big meeting of the Sunday afternoon geries at the Y. M. C. A. will be held and Richard L.

He says that Germany did not wait for a reply to her peace of- fer but initiated measures a month ago to expand her supply of men with munitions. “We ought to see,” he writes, “clearly enough that our efforts on land, especially of the western front have not been adequate to secure a decision or even to deserve it.” Referring to the claim “with a ten- dency to exaggeration, that the Brit- ish have 2,000,000 men in France and the French have 3,000,000 statements of this nature serve rather to ob- scure the issues than to illuminate them. It ought to be known and ad- mitted that the aggregate national strengths do not express the real value of fighting armies. We all ought to count on devisions and guns in order to ascertain our chances of victory and when we count in this manner the figures dwindle to quite a different total. The truth of the situation in the west is that Germany has 128 divislons opposed to us and that the number of French, British and Belgium divisions is not yet such as to promise a decision in an of- -fense. “The offense develops on us in or- der that we may evict the enemy from the territories of our allies and such an offensive, against modern means of defense, demands a great superiority in strength, particularly in heavy guns, infantry and all other modern military -machinery. Before the war we supposed a two or even three to one superiority not too great for the attacker and I must repeat again and again that we have nothing like this superiority and that victory depends on obtaining it.” The writer declares that there is a crying need for more men and that there has been a great remission in the creation of new defense along the lines. \ THE CHAMBER KNEW IT, Proposed Trolley Franchises Not a Thing Unknown to the C. of O. The, recent exposure of the fran- chise grantéd a new trojley concern ‘whereby private property was to be ‘traversed, Wwas mot unkmown to the Chamber ‘of Commerce, aecording to officfals of that organization today. Mainly through the efforts of the lo- cal directors, the State Chamber of Commerce prepared a bill to be pre- sented at the present session of the general assembly whereby all bills and acts to come before that body would be printed in full and distrib- uted to the public for study, thereby eliminating’ any chances of getting through acts similar to the trolley grab, At a. meeting of the railroad com- mittee some time ago Secretary An- drews explained the route of the pro- posed line with a carefully prepared map, but with vested rights in the council it was not deemed necessary to fight-the matter, Accordifig to these provisions the council must pass on any route proposed ny a company after a franchise is granted, and if it is not satisfactory it has the power to veto it. The trolley company then has the right to appeal from the de- cision to the public utilities commis- sion and in ‘case of the veto being upheld ‘or turned down, each party has the right to take the matter to the superior court. Tt has been felt by the Chamber of Commerce and the common council that neither the com- mission nor the court would uphold the trolley company after the city showed opposition to the route anad for this reason no agitation has been started in opposition to the new line. The annual dinner committee held a meeting at 11 o’clock today and de- cided to hold the event during the latter part of February. It had been originally intended to hold the din- ner this month but the inability to secure the desired speakers make it imperative to change the date. MIDDLETON CAN'T COME.

SUNSHINERS DOING DEEDS OF HINDNESS Outline of Year's Work Given a Annual Meeting Today Reports of the has been done excellent work that by the Canonicus branch of the International Sun- shine Society, Inc., during the past year were read'at the annual meeting this afternoon by the record- ing secretary. Mrs. Eliza S. Cadwell. Not only has the Sunshine society brought rays of sunshine into the homes of the poor and needy and sick, but it has also given generously to the Town Home, the Children’s Home and the Home for Blind Babies in Newington. A complete report of the society’s activities is herewith Printed, as arranged by Mrs. Cadwell: At the annual meeting held on Jan. 8, 1916 the two branches of our society were merged into one. New by-laws had been drawn up by which the annual meeting was changed from June to January and the date of meetings from the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month to the first and third Mondays. The officers that were elected at that time were: Mrs. George Corbin, president; Mrs. W. W. Marshall, vice president; Mrs, John Pinches, treas- urer; Mrs. C. F. Erichson, Corres- ponding secretary; Mrs. G. A. Cadwell, recording secretary. A board of nine elected consisting of members: To serve one year: Mrs. E. J. Porter, Mrs. M. H. Rhodes and Mrs. D. McMillan. To serve two years: Mrs. W. H. Porter, Mrs. Otis Butler and Mrs. E. J. Skinner. To serve three years: Mrs. Joseph Tow- ers, Mrs. Barnes and Mrs. Dyson. The officers with these directors constitute a board of managers. The year has been one of progress and activity. The Caroline S. Doug- Tass fund has given us great opportu- nittes for carrying sunshine into dark places, and for providing clothing, food and fuel for those in need. Under the several committees ap- pointed annually, much work is ac- complished. The hospital committee distributed over. 1,200 oranges to the patients in the wards, the visits being made weekly. The flower committees sent out 138 orders of flowers and potted plants. Ten layettes were placed where much needed. These outfits are added to from time to time, the members making many of the garments, There is a committee Who looks after the needs of the Blind Babies’ Home in Farmington. - Last spring thirty-five garments were furnished directors were the following twelve bloomers and seven rompers were sent them and again in the carly winter, twelve more garments were provided. > There has been great demand this last year for the sick room supplies and wheel chairs. At one time every one of the eleven chairs were in use. Much relief work was done in the cold months. Groceries were given out, and several families were supplied with coal at Christmas. Small sums of money are given monthly to a few very worthy women. Checks are sometimes sent to families whose resources have been reduced by long sickness. The children of two families were provided with shoes and stockings, one family consisting of five children and the other of six. There are three families in which the society takes an active interest, the Town home, the Children’s homes, and the Blind Babies’ home. The Town home was sent ice cream, cake and flowers at Easter. It has become the custom of the society to furnish a tree and entertainments for the in- mates. at Christmas. There were eighty-six inmates to be provided for, and each one received an orange, a Christmas stocking, filled' with pop- corn and candy, and a, gift. Christ- mas is always looked forward to vers eagerly at the Town home, and the afternoon of entertainment is always most thoroughly enjoved. Last spring ten loaves of chocolate cake, made by the members, were sent to the Children’s home. During the summer fifteen pants, six bloomers, six overalls, one romper, twenty-four bibs and seven neckties were sent there. These garments were made from rem- nants donated by our city and shirt factory. Cake was again given these children at Thanksgiving, and at Christmas 120 Christmas stockings filled with candy and popcorn were sent them. Thirty articles were given for the Christmas tree at the Home on Cor- bin avenue. The six matrens were presented with $3 each as a holiday gift. The Blind Babies' home was given twenty Christmas stockings, besides toys, dolls, and books, and two pair of stockings for each child. Last Thanksgiving, nine dinners, were sent out.

ITALY JUSTIFIED IN ENTERING WAR Francesco Ruifino D_eclare‘s Lostl Provinces Must Be Regained by the Rome, Sunday, Jan. 14, via Paris, Jan. 15.—TItaly’'s territorial aspirations in connection with the war were ex- plained today by Irancesco Ruffino, minister of public instruction and a historian, in a statement to the Asso- ciated Press. “In the note of the Allies to Presi- dent: Wilson,” he said, “they make a point Which is understandable to neu- trals and particularly "to America. Italy, no less than her allies, awaits with calm confidence the realization of the aims set forth in that passage of the note which refers to the re- demption of Italians subject to Aus- tria. The German press seeks to depict Italy as desirous of conquests, but American public opinion, so far well educated to freedom and to a deep spirit of national unity, cannot confound brutal lust of conquest with a justified claim to territories with populations like those of the Trentino, Istria and Dalmatia. ‘“These territories have had only one civilization in their history, that of Italy, and one great obstacle— which must cease—that of foreign domination. ‘“Austria was responsible for the outbreak of the conflict, having willed the war with Serbia after provoking Italy a hundred times with violent persecutions of Italians in Trent, Tri- este, Fiumé and Zara, whom she de- nied even the right to educate them- selves in their own language. “Once the conflagration was ignited, Ttaly felt that fate called her to com- plete her national unity and resume her just and holy work and her wars of independence, which have been studied with such enthusiasms by vour fillustrious American historians. Only those who are ignorant of the history of Austria’s usurpations were surprised by Ttaly’s action. Ttaly faced the terrible sacrifices of blood and richness imposed by the war with that same spirit which animated all the deeds of her national resurrec- tion, of which America’s attainment of independence was so full. “Italy counts on the considered and tranquil judgment of American pub- lic opinion while justly desiring the return of peace and cannot, if it ex- amines the origin of the conflict and the problem raised thereby, wish that the Luropean equilibrium, broken b, violence in 1914, be replaced today by a premature and unfruitful peace of the Germans.” AMERICAN HEBREW UNION.
