Bonar Law, Lord Milner, ACCUSED BY ‘PAL,’ BOY CONFESSES HE KILLED HULL (Continued from First Page.) known last Friday Justice of the Peace Samuel 8, Whitehouse of Long Beach recalled that both Hull and Dippiseh were great friends of the Wilkins family and knew that Mrs, Wilkins always had concealed about! the house sums of money varying from $200 to $400, Whitehouse and other friends of the pair began Yebating as to whether the boys, knowing the habits of Hull, did not know also those of Mrs, Wilkin: and that if they had killed their em- ested In the death of a woman, by whose murder it would be possible to secure $400? Wilkins declared that while the mon held him the third, ealied Dick, killed his wife with a hammer. It was with a hammer that Mr, Hull was beaten to death. Capt. Carey said to-day he had questioned O'Brien regarding the mur- der of Mrs. Wilkins. The boy, Capt. Carey said, seemed familiar with all the facts of the crime, Dut asserted he had been ill with pneumonia at the home of Mrs. Joseph Bossardet at No, 98 Lincoln Road, Brooklyn, Feb, %7, when Mrs, Wilkins was mur- dered, Capt. Carey at once sent out detectives to verify this story. BOY SHOWS NO SIGN OF RE- MORSE FOR CRIME. Capt, Carey says O'Brien showed no signs of remorse, He describes the prisoner as of the “bad boy” type, but with no known vicious habits, such as gambling or associating with bad women, O'Brien said his mother was de- sorted when he was twelve years old and he was sent to the Rhode Island State Hospital and Schoo) at Provi- dence, where he met Paige, who had been there since he was three years old. Three years ago they ran away. O’Brien went to Brooklyn, but his aister had him sent back to the Rhode Island institution. Puige did not go back,’ and a year and a half ago O'Brien escaped again, A yeur ago he came across Paige m @ penny arcade and soon after- ward Paige got him a job in the Huil establishment, The idea of the rob- bery originated last January in his own mind, O'Brien said, In a hotel im the central section of Philadelphia, Detective Hopper of that city, while reading a newspaper in the lobby, noticed standing ten feet away a young man, one of whose hands showed that three fingers were missing. The newspaper that Hop- yer held contained a description of the two men sought for the New York +Jerime. Descrtption of Pulge coincided with every appearance of the youth before him, He arrested him, and Paige admitted his identity. He also had a new outfit of clothing and $43.12 in money, Paige was arraigned in Centr) Po- Nee Court, held to await extradition, George A. Quelch, office manager for Hull & Deppisch, told Mr. Joyce to-day that he had more than once ordered O'Brien and Paige out of M: Hull's office when they were hanging over the sentor partner's shoulder as he was counting money. “You are always picking on Lod boss is counting money," he when the said O'Brien told him on the last oc- : about a mon! on tp be Sapien Philadelphia to-day, and |\ BROKER ACCUSED BY ‘OTHER WOMAN’ SUED FOR DNORCE Wife of Guy A.

Ferris, managing agent for the United States Shipping Board declared today that a serious situa- tion had been created by the strike of marine firemen, ollers and water- tenders and by the threatened strike of other ehip-handling engineers, “In the Port of New York,” said Mr, Ferris, “there are 186 steamships of the United States Shipping Board tied up by the strike, Decisive action may be expected here or in Washing- ton within the next few hours.” Of the number of privately owned and operated ships tied wp officials of the American Steamship Association were unable to make an estimate, Strike committees of the Seamen's and Marine Firemen’s Unions an- nounced to-day that three more com- panies of privately owned ships had yielded to the union demands. These were the French-American Transpor- tation Company, operating twenty vessels; the Foreign Transport Mer- cantile Corporation, with fourteen vessels, and the Eastern Steamship Company, which operates New York to Boston vessels. Spokesmen for the strikers said they were not alarmed by the threat of the Federal Shipping Board to ask the navy to man vessels owned or controlled by the Board. One Shipping Board vessel, the Ice King, chartered to the Cosmopolitan Shipping Company, is tied up in Brooklyn with a cargo of meat worth $1,600,000. The company asked the union to supply enough firemen to keep the refrigeration plant going so that the meat would not spoil. This request was refused and the work of unloading the meat was started. United Fruit Company passenger boats have not been affected, but some of its freight ships have been Welayed in unloading, and few of these have sailed since the strike started, Officials of the Clyde and Mallory lines say their sailings have not ‘been affected. The Old Dominion ine was not affected until yesterday, when the Princess Anne failed to sail. It was said that the Jamestown, due to sail to-day, might not get away.

Henry Ford, plaintiff in a $1,000,000 libel suit against the Chicago Tribune resumed the witness stand to-day. He was questioned by Attorney Elliott G. Stevenson for the defendant. The witness reiterated bis belief that pro- fesvionable soldiers were murderers. ‘The mysterious “Flag of Human- ity," which counsel for the defendant | have been demanding ever since the case began, made its appearance. “It is the first time I ever saw it,” remarked Mr. Ford. “Do you like it better than the | Stars and Stripes?” asked Mr. Stev- enson. “It's a different kind of fi swered the witness, ‘The flag is about 7 by 14 feet, with the earth in white on a blue field. The emblem, designed to typify world brotherhood, is said to have grown out of a remark by Mr. Ford three or four years ego, when he said that ali national flags should be succeeded by a flag of humantty un- der which all men of all nations might stand. Up to to-day counsel for Mr, Ford denied the existence of such a flag. WAR OF AGGRESSION MUR- DER, WITNESS INSISTS. ‘Attorney Stevenson introduced a pamphlet containing pacifist angu- ments which, the witness admitted, was wildly distributed at his expense in 1916. Mr. Stevenson quoted Mr. Ford as saying “Preparedness is the root of war.” “That meant over-preparedness,’ said Mr, Ford. “What do you mean when you say that war is murder?” “War of aggression.” “And those who urge preparedness advocate marder?” “Over-preparedness, yes.” The witness said that sane pre- paredness for defense was legitimate, The lawyer quoted from the peace pamphlet wherein Mr, Ford advo- cated disarmament and asked if in 1915 Mr. Ford was opposing any pre- paredness whatsoever. Yes," admitted the witness, “You state in this book that there was a ring trying to drive us into war?" continued Mr. Stevenson.” “Can you give us one member of that ring?” 'No.” President Wilson was one of those who urged the preparedness whion you call murder?” "Over-preparedness; I am strong for preparedness now.” “You were not in 19152" “I thought our preparedness at that time was adequate.” “Do you think now that war murder?” “Not for the oppressed.” WON'T EXEMPT PERSHING IN OPINION OF SOLDIERS. The witness said he considered pro- fessional soldiers—those who made their living out of it—were murderers, “That includes Gen, Pershing?” asked Mr. (Stevenson. “Those who commit murder are murderers, If war is murder then professional soldiers are murderers,” The matter in the pamphlet was prepared by Theodore Delavigne, one of Mr, Ford's publicity men, “] authorized them and I am re- sponsible,” said the witness. “Often I Mdn't know what was in them,” “Did you know what was in your widely published page advertisement opposing preparedness?” “I dont’ believe I read that I sent out many things to make people ELECTRIC LINES AT CRISIS ~~ FEDERAL BOARD 1S TOLD , Government Has Taken Control of Everything and Given Nothing, Says Pardee, WASHINGTON, July 16.—Biectric railways of the country have reached & crisis; they cannot continue operat-' ing unless relief, in the shape of addi- tional revenues, is given them, accord-' ing to statements of street raitway rep-¢ resentatives laid before the Federal ggg Railway Commission here te- m5 ‘ “Prevalent antagonism,” was @e-' nounced as, the greatest wrecker of service by John H.
