DEFENSE WILL CONTINUE FIGHT (Continued from Page One) here in 1920 and was sentenced to death. After a long but vain battle I to have the sentence set aside by the supreme court, the defense forced the courts to impannel a jury to pass upon the sanity of Geary. It was held Geary, became insane between the time he was brought to trial and the date of sentence. The jury returned | of verdict of insanity and Geary now ! is in the state asylum for the criminal insane. While Clarence Darrow, chief defense attorney, refused to comment, simply stating he would do his utmost to save the boys from death if they are sentenced to the gallows, Ettelson 'said he felt this would be the second step of the defense. He believes the defense’s first move would be to go before the supreme court and claim error. If both steps are unproductive an appeal to Governor Small will follow, Ettelson believed. State’s Attorney Crowe said that if Justice Caveriy orders life iu jail for the boys the state could do nothing about it- . - i “We have uo power or appeal from I any sentence the court may impose,” he said. “But if he sentences them to death and the defense tries to beat the decision we shall fight to the last.’’ Thomas Marshall, assistant state’s attorney and the indictment expert for Crowe, is preparing’for a possible fight in the supreme court. “There can be no appeal from the facts in the case.” Marshall told the United Press. “Their only chance of an appeal to the supreme court is on a technicality. They may cite errors i in presenting the evidence. Their' »nly purpose in making an appeal j would be to delay execution, for the supreme court would have to uphold the sentence. I shall be ready if they appeal.” CHINA HEARS THREATS OF A CIVH. WAR (Continued from Page One) The foreign and Chinese chambers of commerce met together for the first time in history yesterday to plan protection of he city and devise a scheme for creation of a neutral zone. Thousands of Chinese already are fleeing into the country. ' Fleets of the rival leaders both are steaming tow'ard Shanghai, one from 1 Foo Chow and one from Nanking. It it believed there may be a naval engagement during the day. I -o j CLOTHING STORE NOTICE! The following clothing stores will be closed all day Monday .on account ot Labor Day: J TEEPLE & PETERSON.
