CLEVELAND, kiven up hope, June 14— My cane in hopeless, I realize now that under the cir- cumstances nothing I can say will either help me or hurt me, I want to make clear, however, that Marian in just an Innocent victim of cireum- ances, Thia was the statement of Mrs, Pva Catherine Kaber according to police here to-day, Both she and her daugh- ter by @ former marriage, Marian MeAidle, now are under indictment ona fi degree murder charge in connection with the killing of Daniel F, Kaber, wealthy Lakewood pub- lisher, Edward EB. Stanton, County Prose- cutor, 18 at work to-day on the theory that Covalito, who is said to have confessed to part in the Kaber kil- ing, was the person who stabbed th victim to death in lis home here, Stanton sald that he believed that two foreigners were present at the time of the murder, but that the knife wax wielded by the woman herself. At the same time Prosecutor Stan- ton announced that a woman fortune- ler, her daughter, son and son-in- jaw had promised to make completo statements covering their entire knowledge of the affair. Silver which Mrs. Kaber reported to the police as having been stolen on the night of the murder was recov- ered last night from the home of the fortune-teller, where, the latter and hor daughter stated, it was placed by ‘Mrs, Kaber three days before the murder, The story of the fortune teller and her daughter coincides with that told by Miss MoArdle to the New York police last week, that she pried open the buffet door three days before the murder and that her mother removed the silver, It is contradictory, however, of the story Mrs. Kaber told the day follow- Ing her arrest in New York. At that time she said if the police found the silver and the persons who e: ‘e it they would find the murderer, The fortune teller and her daugh- ter declured they could’ identify the men who were hired to commit the murder. They declared the men came to their home several times and threatened not only their lives but those of other members of the family unless they induced Mrs. Kaber to pay them $5,000, which they claimed as promised in consideration for 4 murder, @ questioning, the for- tune teller was released pending fur ther investication, It was learned that the two for- eigners who are believed to have ac- tually stabbed Kaber went to Joweph Kaber, brother of the dead man, somo time after the murder and offered to show hima woman “who could tell all about the murder.” They took him to a place and pointed out a house where Mrs. Cola vito lived, according to the brother’ statement, and tried to collect the reward, Their efforts tailed, however, when they refused to give out any further Information, SONOF BROKER LEAPS 17 STORES TOEATH AT HOTEL (Continued From First Page.) search of the pockets of the dead man a letter obviously from his mother was found, It read: "Doar Children: Tam gaining every day.

Mr. Thomas, who is President of the International Federation of Trade Unions, addressed the conven- tion as a fraternal delegate from the British Trades Union Congress. “British labor,” Mr, ‘Thomas con- tinued, “has always stood and stands| now for liberty. We stand for home rule for Ireland. “Let me warn you against any agi- tation that might disrupt your move- mont here in America by creating dit-| ferences among yoursc Do not} mistake me.

Now the Irish people are looking to you, “I warn you against trying to create in thelr minds the feeling that you can solve their difficulties, You can't solve by passing resolutions this prob- lem that has ex: ed for the past one hundred years.” After the British leader had an- swered several questions regarding the acts of the military in Ireland President Samuel Gompers stopped further debate. ‘The factional disputes among the Irish sympathizers in the American Federation of Labor are assuming a more interesting phase, The advocates of Srish freedom have appointed & committee to draft a resolu- tion that would be satisfactory {o both the extreme and conservative xroups of the assemblage, The “official resolutions" called for a boycott, not only on British-made goods but on all products made by | English capital, and the boycott of British insurance companies and similar business organizations, Many delegates have announced op- {Position to the “official resolutions,” | land bave presented to the committee |u resolution demanding recognition of | the Irish by the United States, with-/ drawal of British troaps trom Ireland, | land repayment by England of the $9,000,000,000 loaned to her by the!

Three hours after they left, Meier freed himself and called the Newark nd Irvington police. Meier said he was on duty outside the plant, when two men approached from behind, ordered him to put up his hands, and robbed him of $1.60, Both were armed, and one was masked, Meler watched them pry off the safe combination and set a charge in the safe door. There was an explo- sion, and the safe door fell outward, The men then rifled the safe, and took out a strong box, which they carried to another room. Meier said he could hear them forcing it, and a few minutes later the men went through the office to the street, and he heard an automobile starting away.
