=\ ESTABLISHED 187 HOPPE RECEIVES LIFE I PRISON NOTED AS JAH-BREAKER Mam Charged With Murdering Quincy Policeman Has Esceped From Maine and Twice From Ver- mont Prisons—Heavily Guarded. Dedham, Mass., Oct. § UP—A dis- agreement was reported shortly after 10 a. m. today by the jury which since 1:40 p. m., yesterday had been considering the case of Stephen Hoppe, charged with the murder of Patrolman Alfred N. Hollis of Quincy, on October &, 1927. Im- mediately afterward Hoppe entered a plea of guilty of murder in the second degree and Judge Keating sentenced him toé life imprisonment in the state prison at Charlestown. Noted Jail Breaker Hoppe, who has won notoriety as a jail breaker, was brought into the prisoner's cage at 9:56 a. m. He immediately held a consultation with his counsel. The jury was brought in at 10:13 a. m, and Foreman Charles D. Hodges of Brooklin reported that the jurors had been unable to reach an agreement. Then the clerk of the court asked Hoppe if he desired to make a plea. “Yes, 1 do,” Hoppe answered. “What is your plea?" Second Degree “I plead guilty to murder in the second degree.” Judge Keating immediately im- posed the life sentence. Hoppe was placed on trial on September 24, His defense was based chiefly on his assertion that he was not in Quincy on the night Patrolman Hollis was shot while in- vestigating a burglary in a hard- ware store. He had reiterated this assertion when asked if he had any- thing to say just before the case went to the jury. Claims Alib Hoppe's claim was that on that date he was in Hartford. Conn., where he had been living for some time with Mrs. Helen Bradshaw. Mrs. Bradshaw was a witness to the state and told of Hoppe's absence from Hartford for a time in Octo- ber, 1927. A wound in the hand which the state maintained was re- ceived in a fight with the patrolman, Hoppe explained as having been in- flicted by a man who had stabbed him in a gambling house in Provi- (Continued on Page Nine) 5. 5. ALBERT BALLIN INPORT AFTER STORM Hamburg-American Liner Badly Battered by At- lantic Hurricane New York, Oct. 9 (#) — Battered by a terrific gale sh. bucked to render assistance to another storm stricken vessel the Hamberg Ameri- can liner Albert Ballin docked today with an Injured list of 34 pazsengers and one member of the crew. All the Injured had recovered sufficient- Iy to be able to walk ashore. While about 1,000 miles off the coast of Newfoundland on her way to New York last Wednesday the Albert Ballin picked up a distress call’ from the Dutch freighter Celaeno. While going to her as- sistance the German ship was struck with the full fury of the gale and an enormous wave buffeted her on the port quarter forward, smash- ing windows and flooding the | promenade deck. Almost all the passengers were shaken up and bruised but only 34 had to be treated for their injuries Mrs. Jannie Morck of New York and Mr. and Mrs. Emanuel Collin of Woodcliff, N. J,, were on the promenade deck forward when the | great wave struck the ship. Three of the thick window glasses and a door leading to the lower deck were smashed in and the broken glass and water fairly en- gulfed the three passengers. When they were picked up by stewards it was found that Mrs. Morck had severe cuts on both legs which re- quired several stitches. Collin was unconscious and Mrs, Collin had suf- fered severe bruises on her left leg and ankle. As the ship sped to the aid of the Celaeno, the passengers accepted the delay cheerfully, realizing the ship was on a mission of mercy. Captain Paul Weihr of the Albert Ballin did not leave the ship's bridge for 28 hours. Just when the ship was nearing the Celaeno that vesscl sent word she was out of (Continu:d on Page 13.)

The streets they traversed are, the streets many of them skylarked upon more than a decade ago When they were preparing for the front line trenches in Krance. Before them the conquistadores tramped the same streets and the reviewing stand was set up in front of the Alamo, where Texas' greatest heroes lost their lives. Flags of six nations, whose sol- diers have held those streets, decor- ated the course of the parade. In addition to the flag of the conquia- tadores, the Jesuits and the Fran- ciscans, who first planted a flag 1 this soil, there were Maximilian's French flag, the Mexican flag of Santa Anna, the Lone Star ®f ‘the Texas republic, the Stars and Bars of the Confederacy and the Btars and Stripes. Music from 58 Legion bands and drum and bugle corps, from a num- ber of local bands and from sev- eral Mexican musical organizations set the cadence for the march. Leading and directing the parade was Colonel Beaumont Buck, one of Texas' most popular heroes. Colon- el Buck, as a major general in France was reprimanded for twice advancing with the first wave of his attack, armed only with a riding whip. After his return to this coun- try he was retired as a colonel, but was awarded the Distinguished Bervice Cross for his heroism. ‘The parade, feature and sole busi- ness of the second day's program of the tenth annual American Le- gion convention, was the magnet that promised to bring attendance to its peak. Adding to the 60,000 distant visitors estimated to be here now, hosts of south Texas residents poured into the city today to wit- neas the events. More than three hours it was es- timated would be required for the marchers to pass one of several re- viewing stands erected near Texas' shrine of patriotism, the Alamo, for General John J.
