NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, NOVEMBEB 8 with the party until Chicago f{s reached but after a conference with the queen and Colonel Carroll he arranged to say good-bye to Marie Saturday night after the royal party dined at his Seattle home. Miss Birkhead who, with Miss Fuller and Miss Gabrielle Bloch, secretary to Miss Fuller, joined the train as members of Hill's group, told Colonel Carroll that she had repeated about Madame La Hovarie only what she had heard in Paris and on the queen's ship coming over from France. Bhe was confronted also with re- ports by the train police that she had telephoned to Hill after he had left the train. The coaches were placed under guard until it pulled out at 3 o'clock Sunday morning. Miss Birkhead explained that she had telephoned Hill on matters that had nothing to do with his leaving the train or the royal party. Although Miss Fuller has not said how long she will remain with the party, it was expressed, on the train that she would stay at least until Chicago is reached on Nov. 13, Mr. Hill, at Seattle last night, de- nied that dissension aboard the train preceded his departure from it. He said “everything was lovely,” and that the atmosphere was most amicable when Queen Marie dined at his home Saturday.

When guards stopped him the prisoner turned on the water in an attempt to flood his cell. Finally subdued, he turned surly and refus- ed to see newspapermen. In addition to the murder sen- tence, Durkin faces two flve year terms at Atlnta under federal con- viction for transporting stolen auto- mobiles. He is confined in a tier of cells in the old jail fifty feet from the point where a bomb was ex- ploded several months ago in an at- tempt at escape by Henry Fernekes, midget murderer.

He has been searched each time he leaves and returns from court, and visitors see him throush a fine mesh screen. “Fven had Durkin sawed his way through the bars of his cell he would have been unable to escape,” said Warden Fogarty. “He is in the most secure place in the jail.” Successor to Slain Marshal Is Dying Somerset, Ky., Nov. 8 (P—Charles Wright, town marshal of Burnside, 15 miles south of here, is dying as the result of wounds received last night in a fight with a man he tried to arrest.
