Dissatisfastion over police fail- ure to solve the slaying of Ben- jamin Khoury, victim of a boot- leg war, gave the vigilantes their start, it was said. Miller said that when the vigi- lantes complete their work of in- vestigation a complete report will be made. The report will include the names of the vigilantés, he said. _— ‘Vancouver, B. C., was chosen as the 1931 convention city. The selection of the convention city for next year provoked more dcbate on the floor than any one subject previously brought before the convention. The discussion de- veloped on the advisability of hold- ing the meeting in a Canadian city rather than a United States city. Columbus, O., and Salt Lake City, both had bid for the convention. ‘Wet Issue Mentioned During the discussion, it was in- timated by William P. Clarke, of the Flint Glass Workers Union, and Charles P. Howard, president of the Typographical Union, that the absence of prohibtion in Canada might have gained support among the delegates for Vancouver. This was vigorously denied by Daniel J. Tobin, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauf- feurs and Helpers, who said such assertions would cause the public to oktain a false impression of the convention's attitude. Tobin and W. D. Mahon, of De- troit, president of the Amalgamated Street and Electric Railway Em- ployes of America, supported Van- couver. Mahon said it was a union city and that to hold the convention there would help acquaint the Ca- nadian northwest with the ideala of the A. F. of L. Tobin said union organizations of the United Statec west coast cities were united in their support of the Vancouver choice. The chief argument used by delegates in opposing the selection of Columbus was that the hotel em- calm and accepted his fate. During his last hour of life last night, he joked with prison guards, ate nu-: merous dishes of ice cream and smoked several cigars. He explained hs action in goug- ing out his eyes by quoting scrip- ture: “If thine eye offendeth thee, pluck it out.” A fellow in my fix has to try almost éverything he can to help himeelt,” he said. Seated in the electric chair and with the straps adjusted, Shepard said to the dozen guards and news- paper men who witnessed his “Last Mile.” “I want to thank all of vou for the way you have treated me. God be with you As his last act, he kissed a crucifix heid to his lips by Father Hugh Finnegan, prison chap- lain. The current was applied. He was pronounced dead within six min- utes. Shepard's body was taken to a city mortuary, whede it waa un- claimed, as he had neither friends nor relatives. He formerly lived in Arizona. LAKEVILLE WOMAN JUMPS TO STREET (Continued From First Page) On the balcony was found the woman’s coat. A hotel envelope was pinned to the sleeve with the figures ““1405" on it. Mrs. Buehler came to the hotel last Wednesday and was assigned to a room on the seventh floor. Yester- day she asked for a room on an up- per floor and was given 1405. Lakeville, Oct. 17 (A—Mrs. H. G. Buehler, who was killed in Philadel- phia today, was the widow of H. G. Buehler, former headmaster of Hotchkiss school here. He died in 1924. Mrs. Buehler, who lived here un- til a year ago, when she went to New York to make her home, spent the past summer here. She is sur- vived by two children. Miss Barbara EXPLOSION WRECKS GARMENT BUILDING (Continued From First Page) there had been labor trouble con- sequent to a strike a month ago. They expressd the belief the ex- plosion had been caused by an ac- cumulation of gas, but were inves- tigating the manner in which it was set off. They gave considerable cre- dence to reports the gas had been ig- nited when a Mexican youth, em- ployed in the shop, lit a cigarette. The first victims rescued wers suffering from bad burns. Some had all their clothes burned off. J. Holtman, painter working on the third floor of the 11-story Laild- ing, and Carl Kaplan, proprietor of a garment shop on the same fioor, were hurled to the floor. Recovering from the shock, both rushed to safety, but returned to rescue vic. tims whose screams pierced the alr. Hurled to Sidewalk Fire officials sald pedestrians as far as four blocks away were hurled to sidewalks. Automobiles parked within a block were bowled over or ‘wrecked. Duke Wiedeman, owner of an elec- trical supply store opposite the building, was an eye witness. “There was absolutely no warn- ing,” he said. ‘“Suddenly a terrific explosion occurred. I knew there must be nearly a hundred people in the building and realized many {of them must be trapped.” ‘With the fire partly subdued with- lin an hour, firemen made herole | rescues. Two firemen climbed lad- ders to the 11th floor, found a young woman, Sarah Melamed, on the floor |in a protected corner.
