In addition’ to Miss Lawrence's first appearance over an American radio is that of “Voice of Firestone,” at 8 o'clock.

Hospital Cranston, R. L, Jan. 13 UW—Frank Weeden, §1, a former inmate of the State Hospital for Mental Diseases at Howard, was arrested early today near his mother's home at Cowsett and arraigned on a charge of the murder of Dr. Ransom H. Sartwell, superintendent of the hospital. Al- though the police aid he had con- fessed, he pleaded not gulity and was remanded to the county jail at Providence. Confesses Crime Inspector Lester Solroyd of the Warwick police said Weeden ex- claimed to him after his arrest: “It was the best deed I have ever done. Sartwell was no friend of mine when 1 was up for parole.” When Judge Henry D. C. Dubois called upon him to plead to the charge of murder in the district court at Cranston, Weeden sald: “I plead not guilty, Self-defense will be my argument. I have been perse- cuted by the doctors in the state hospital and slandered by the news- papers.” Judge Dubois held him without bail for-a hearing on Janu- ary 30. A charge from a shotgun fired from outside the home of Dr. Sart- well on the hospital grounds, ended the superintendent's life as he sat near a window writing a telegram last Friday night. Two burlap bags sewed together were found on the ground near the window through which the shot was fired. Burlap Bags Fumish Clue ‘When Weeden was arrested today he had in his possession a shotgun wrapped in two burlap bags. A search of the Weeden home previ- ously had disclosed a number of bags cf this type in the cellar. ‘Weeden had escaped from the hos- pital 15 times since his first com- mitment there in 1902, At that time he was transferred from the state prison, where he had been serving a senence for assault with intent to 1l his sweetheart, Daisy Coulters, at Auburn in 1896, A shot had been fired from a shotgun through a win- dow in the Coulters home.
