HUSBAND AND WIFE WORK N ROBBERIES Woman An Unwilling Accom- plice, She Testifles New York, Aug. 15.—Mrs. Rose Fulton, nineteen-year-old wife of Jo- seph Fulton, confessed robber, was found not guilty of being an aid to her husband and another man in their robbery of Claus Umlan's candy store May 19 last, by a jury before County Judge Tiernan in Brooklyn yesterday. The jury was out half an hour. In default of $10,000 bail, Rose Fulton went back to her cell in Ray- mond street jail to await action on two other robbery charges. Her law- yer, Harry Chiert, will ask for a dis- missal of the charges, alleging that the evidence is the same in all cases. As soon as she is free Mrs, Fulton wants to go. back to her old job as a telephone operator to support her two-year-old boy and help her fam- ily, woth whom she is goin to live.Her father is disabled, and five children younger than she are dependent. ‘When asked if she would seek a di- vorce she said she would do what her mother wanted. “She's my best friend and I've made her enough irouble. I'll do what she wants,” she said. Her mother, Mrs. Willlam Loecher, had previously said that her daugh- ter must sue for a divorce. Fear of her husband and his part- ner, who threatened her with a pis- tol, she said was her recason for do- ing as she was ordered. They forced her to remain in the car May 30, she said, when they committed the two other robberies with which she is charged, and then, when she had be® home only a day, they ordered her to 80 with them on a journey which end- ed in Indiana. ‘It was terrible,”” she said. “Not for one minute, day or night, dur*:lmg that trip was I out of the car. My husband locked me in. Mickey (the accomplice) and his gun were beside me on the seat. I was so tired I couldn’t eat, and I wanted my boy.” Not since the day of her marriage, she sald, has she known any happi- ness or peace. Her husband never gave her a home and her earnings ‘went to support him or provide him with drink. “He never gave me any . money,” she sald. “They talk about my sharing in the proceeds of his robberies. 1 never saw any money of his. If I had I would have asked where it came Exide Automobile Batteries An Announcement of Interest to Every Automobile Owner EFFECTIVE AUGUST 15 the cost:to you of the famous Exide Battery for your car will be materially reduced.

EX DEATH AND FLAMES AS STILL EAPLODES One Man Killed, $300,000 Prop- erty Loss in New York New York, Aug. 15—One man is dead and property valued at $300,000 was destroyed by a fire, said to have bene caused by an exploding still, which yesterday demolished a ware- house covering two blocks in Long Island City. The body of the man, thought to be Daniel Pagliarello, 21, a chauffeur of 321 East 54th street, Manhattan, was found burned beyond recognition be- side a wrecked 50-gallon still, which is blamed for the blaze. Cans and a cask containing what is sald to have been denatured alcohol also were found. In the warehouse were 50 automo- biles and motor trucks of the Pan- ther Motor company and a large duantity of merchandise and building material. The efforts of 15 fire com- panies were powerless to stop the blaze. The building, of brick, one story high, was burned to the ground. The building, which was owned by the William Bradley Contracting com- pany, with offices in the Flatiron building, had been leased for storage purposes to the Panther Motor com- pany, the Union Warehouse and Stor- age company, the Crystal Rock Mag- nasite company and G. Vadala. The fire is said to have started in the portion occupied by G. Vadala, in which pianos, phonographs and other musical instruments were stored.

Businss in, the hardware markets of the United States came to a stand- still the latter part of last week as a tribute of respect to the memory of Warren G. Harding. Few price changes of any importance were an- nounced, and the bellef is growing that fall business will be essentially stable as far as prices are concerned. Quite a large volume of fall orders have already been filled, it is said, and a.more confident attitude is being shown by buyers, Current business {s' somewhat slack, but this is con- sidered natural at this season.

Jobbers, hm" ever, expect to have adequate stoc on most items to meet the fall and winter demands. KLAN SPEAKER MOBBED Street Fight Follows Public Meeting And Rev.
