ACTION GREETS GEN CROWDER Cuban Government Gets Busy With Arrival of U. S. Investigator. HAVANA, Jan. C.—The arrival of Maj. Gen. Enoch Crowder, U. S. A., with wide powers to investigate the political and financial situation in Cuba as a possible preliminary to American intervention, has spurred the government to action. The Inter-Parliamentary Committee met today to discuss immediate remedial legislation. The veterans’ council held a meeting to protest against intervention by the United States. The United States gunboat Nashville has arrived here. WASHINGTON, Jan. 6—During the conferences with Cuban officials which tvgan in Havana today. Maj. Gen. Enoch 11. Crowder, special representative of President Wilson, will discuss the Cuban and economic situation not only President Menocal, hut also with judges of the Supreme Court, members of the election boards and leaders of the Liberal party, or the faction which is opposed to Menocal. The “full power” with which President Wilson clothed General Crowder would be sufficient for him to demand such conferences, officials said today, but it is believed the object will be accomplished without friction. Inability to agree on interpretations of various points in the law has Invariably been the explanation given by election boards of their failure to dispose of disputed cases. General Crowder wrote the Cuban election laws and therefore is the logical authority to Interpret them. COUNTY OFFICERS PLEDGE ECONOMY Hamilton Farmers Request Cessation of Improvements.

ACCUSED SLAYER DEFENDSHIMSELF El wood B. Wade Hopes to Plead Emotional Insanity. BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Jan. 6—Forsaken by the woman with whom he was infatuated and whose husband, George B. Nott, be is charged with slaying, Elwood B. Wade, youthful milk dealer, today witnessed the beginning of the real legal battle to sore his neck from a hangman's noose.

Wade’s good man Friday, John E. Johnston, who with Mrs. Nott is charged with being Wade’s accomplice In the brutal murder, also put the blame Insofar as himself was concerned, upon Wade. Elbert Wade, 4S. father of the accused milkman, was the first witness called for the defense. The beautiful young wife of the reputed slayer was also expected to testify. She has followed the case with fortitude. Mn. Nott was not in the courtroom when the session began, being kept in the sheriffc office.
