URGES COUNTS AGAINST SMALL BE WIPED OUT Counsel for Illinois Governor Says Indictments Effort to Prejudge. STATE MAY ASK DELAY WAUKEGAN, 111., Dec. 7.—Attorney C. C. LaForgee today closed his three-day attack upon the indictments against Governor hen Small, with a demand that Judge Edwards set aside each and every count in the bills and wipe out the entire proceedings from the court's calendar. The indlctmnts charge the Govcror with conspiracy and the embezzlement of State funds. Attorney Schroeder and Beanbien, also of defense counsel, were to follow with attacks upon the indictments. STATE’S ATTORNEY GOES TO SPRINGFIELD. It was learned that C. Fred Mortimer, State's attorney from Sangamon County, left for SpringSeld. His departure was followed by an intimation from the State that a delay would be sought to give attorneys for the State a week or more to examine the voluminous arguments of LaForgee. LaForgee, In summing up today, reiterated his general charge that the Sangamon County grand jury which. Indicted the Governor was “illegally drawn" and that that jury had In its "special report” robbed the Governor of his constitu lonal right for a hearing before cnvictin. He said the Jury’s report was an attempt of sinister forces using the grand jury to blacken the name <>f Governor Small before the people of Illinois by prejudging and convicting him without defense and without a trial.” SAYS ACTION REFLECTS UPON STATES HONOR. “It was done for political effect,” Attorney LaForgee deelraed. “Buch action reflects upon the honor of the State of Illinois.” He contended that the right of a man to a fair hearing by due process of law “was not a technicality but a part of the very principles of our liberty” and insisted that a man could not tinder the law be forced to trial “without the proper and legal observance of all those vital safeguards.” “The entire indictment,” he said in conclusion, “is so full of holes that it Is hayd to believe that those who drew it ever expected it would come before any court for hearing."

phones, urging the spectators and strikers to return to their homes. The decision of the adjutant general to call out State troops came as a result of riots in which several of the strike- j breakers were severely beaten, and two cars of food and blankets, that were; being sent to the plants, were unloaded by strikers and thrown into the river. THREATS KEEP POLICE ON TOES CHICAGO, Dec. 7.—Threats to bomb and shoot to kill In the packinghouse strike today put the police here on their toes. Otto F. Blanrock, general superintendent of the Western Packing and Provision Company, complained to the police ] strikers had warned his employes that they would “shoot and kill.” Workmen have been told over the tele- ] phone, they told the police, that their homes would be bombed. Dennis Lane, secretary of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America, issued a formal statement that nineteen thousand of the twenty-three thousand men affected by the strike at the yards are on strike. The packers have claimed they are operating “praetii’ally normal.” The price of pork has advanced again. Stanley Rythn, a stockyards employe, was shot end painfully wounded during an alleged attempt by union pickets to prevent him from going to work. Mias Augusta Wilkie, 2S, and her father. William Wilkie, both employed by Armour & Cos.. were attacked In their way home from work. Both were slugged and kicked. Police were called upon frequently to disperse crowds that threatened trouble In the stockyards district, where a strike of members of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of America was called Monday. It was reported that several of the Independent paeklng companies, hardest hit by the strike, were preparing to ask an Injunction to prevent picketing. This would be the first court move. ONLY ONE OMAHA PLANT OPERATING OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 7. —Omaha packing plants, with the exception of Armour and Company, were practically at a standstill today. Fewer men were at work than at any time since the strike began, union officials declared the strike Is now 95 per cent effective and “we’ll get the other 3 per cent before night,” they added. KANSAS COURT BANS PICKETING " KANSAS CITY, Kan., Dec. 7.—Acting through Mayor Harry Burton, the Kanx sas Industrial Court today Issued a “no- . picketing*’ order at the “big five” packing plants. The order not only forbids union pickets from standing near the gates of the plants, but denied the strikers the right to gather on any stret in the city. The court threatened to bring In the State militia unless the order was obeyed. While men, presumably strikers, were patrolling tbe streets near the plants, no workmen entering the plants were stopped or Intimidated and no arrests for violation of the picketing order had been made. Tha strike sitnatlon, according to the leaders, remained unchanged. Marion Man Fatally Burned in Explosion Special to The Times. MARION, Ind.. Dec. 7.—E. L.

NEUTRALITY OF CHINA WILL BE RESPECTED From Dago One.) against the alleged "mishandling of problems affecting China." They stated that their resignation* were prompted by the conviction that China was not to get Justtce and that Chinese problems were merely a background for the more ambitious undertaking of agreement on a naval ratio and an “entente.” Conditions within the Chinese delegation are admittedly chaotic. It Is freely predicted In Chinese quarter* that more resignations will follow. There are indications, however, that Chinese dissatisfaction Is directed as much toward the leaders of the Chinese delegation as It Is toward the conference itself. Tb< advisers and counsellors of the deleg ition openly complain that they are not consulted In advance of action by tbe chief delegates. REGARD ENTENTE AS SETTLED FACT. In British and Japanese quarters the entente is privately spoken of ns a fact, which has been practically accomplished and which needs only the final word from I.ondon and Toklo to complete the undertaking. It is significant that most of the talking is coming from these sources and that American officials qualified to speak, are maintaining silence. The question of how deeply the 5-5-3 naval ratio for Japan enters into tha situation, also Is a matter beclouded with considerable doubt. On the surface of things. Baron Kr.to, the diminutive leader of the Tokio delegation, still Is awaiting word from his government as to whether the 6-5-3 ratio, originally proposed oy Secretary Hughes, Is acceptable. He denies strenuously that the 10-10-7 ration put forward by the Japanese as a counter proposal, was designed as "trading argument.” OFFICIALS TOLD TO WATCH OUTGO Eschbach Says Public Tired of Unjust Expenditures. Jesse E. Eschbach, head tho the State board of accounts, sounded a warning to public officials today against "unjust expenditure of public funds.” In a letter to Alva O. Reser, treasurer of the Lafayette school board. Mr Eschbach criticised the school board for insisting on employing a school nurse under the guise of an assistant att . once officer. “The taxpayers of Indiana cannot much longer bear the constantly increasing burdens which are being added because of fads not bnsed on actual necessity,” Mr. Eschbach said. “An aroused public sooner or later wlil call to Judgment those responsible for unjust expenditure of public funds entrusted to the sacred keeping of their public servants.” She Lafayette school board desired to employ a school nurse but there is no law that will permit It. When ihe board then proposed to take advantage of the attendance office law empoxvering them to employ assistant officers, Mr. Eschbach also frowned on this proposal. “It is our opinion that the school eity has no authority to appoint and compensate a school nurse out of i iblic funds." the letter safd. “If the m re purpose of the appointment of an ad iUional attendance officer Is to proviJe a nurse we thinji such appointment Is very remote froß the requirements and contemplathe act; la illegal and is a mere ! subterfuge."
STATE DECLARES KIROFF MURDER PREMEDITATED (Continued From Page One.) left arm was raised up. He said ‘Hurry along with it.’ I stubbed my toe against the bed. The gun went off. It was in my left hand. I was in fear.” On cross examination by Mr. Miller she testified that she found the "gun" under the mattress or rather under one of the pillows at the head of the bed. She said she stumbled against a “large rug” which was at the side of the bed. She said her husband was five or six feet away from her when the “accident” happened. "Y'our husband's arms were not five or six feet in length, were they?” Mr. Miller asked. She maintained that her husband had his hand raised. The defense made a desperate effort to convince the jury that she thought that her husband was alarmed because the police might be coming to search the home for a “still” and “white mule,” but the court sustained the objection of the State. DENIES MAKING THREAT TO SHOOT. She emphatically denied that she threatened to shoot her husband if he came into the room, ns police testified Kiroff had said in his dying statement. She also steadfastly denied that a strange man was in her bedroom when her husband arrived homo shortly before the tragedy. Mrs. Kiroff testified that she would become a “mother in about a month or two” and declared Carl Kiroff was the father of her unborn child. A point of her testimony which Is causing both sides much argument is her contention that on the night of the tragedy her husband know that she would be a mother. SAYS SITE TOLD HFBBAND OF FEAR. With that knowledge on the night of the tragedy, she asked Carl not to go back to his soft drink store, but asked him to stay home because she was "afraid.” She maintained with a sort of savage tenacity that she had always been a loyal wife to Carl and the State could introduce no direct evidence of any nature to refute that contention. Mrs. Kiroff maintained that her husband had struck her when she objected to him manufacturing and selling "white mule.” On one occasion when they were living near Irvington, she testified, she objected to keeping watch when Carl was “working the still” and “making white mule.” SAYS HUSBAND STRUCK HER. She testified that she refused to "watch for the police" and that Carl had struck her with a mop, knocking her unconscious. Her physical condition at that time was delicate and she was in bed for five days, she said. She testified that after her husband had served sixty days on the Indiana State farm for “bootlegging” she asked him not to manufacture “white mule,” and declared he replied that he “was running the still'’ aud tliat she “hud to do the watching.” Mrs. Kiroff said that on the afternoon of the tragedy he had struck her during a quarrel. On a previous occasion, when they lived on West Michigan street, she testified, Carl demanded that she carry some “white mule" to a restaurant and that she refused because she was afraid of the police. DECLARES PIN BELONGED TO HUSBAND, i Concerning the Serbian stick pin which ! was found on her bed following the (tragedy by the detectives, she testified that Carl had the pin before their marI rlage. The detectives testified that Kiroff j denied owning the pin. Evidence showed that Kiroff was a Bulgarian. The .State bitterly opposed evidence being Introduced regarding the manufacture of “white mule" und other alleged extraneous matters. At one time the court stated that he was "getting out of patience” with the manner In which Mr. Wetter was conducting the examination of Mrs. Kiroff, aud advised counsel to get down to the vital facts. The remarks of the court were made when Mra. Kiroff testified in answer to quea- ! tions put by Mr. Wetter that a man giv- | ing bis name a* Deny Dumcoff and a I witness for the State, was a partner of j Carl Kiroff in the "white mule” busl ness. Dumcoff denied this.
She answered ail questions directly and refused to change any part of her testimony on cross-examination, except the statement that she stumbled on a rug instead of the bed. SPECTATORS FILL COURTROOM. The courtroom was packed when she related the story of the tragedy. It Is said that the crowd which heard the quaint recital was one of the largest ever Jammed In the courtroom. The defense, after William (Tssell, 449 North Haugh street, had testified for tho State that he helped carry Kiroff from the porch of the home of Mrs. Mabel Davis, who lived next door, summoned him as a witness for Mrs. Kiroff. Clsaell testified that be was sitting on a box in front of a grocery at Haugh and Michigan streets when he heard a shot. He asserted that he did not see a "strange man” run from the Kiroff borne. Guy Lennington, a brother of Mrs. Kiroff and who has been at his sister's side during tho entire trial, testified In her behalf as did her father, Grant Lennington and her sister, l.ydla Lennington. Counsel maintain that the doctrine of reasonable doubt will have much bearing upon tho verdict of the Jury. Tho State did not ask for capital punishment but asked for a conviction. The Jury has the power to return a verdict of manslaughter if a verdict of guilty Is deemed proper. The defense asked for an absolute acquittal. Gets SIOO Fine, Costs and 40 Days in Jail Christ Alepawhn. proprietor of a restaurant at 1163 Kentucky avenue, was fined SIOO and costs and sentenced to serve forty days lu Jail toduy in city court on a "blind tiger” charge. His heavy sentence was due to the fact that Is his second conviction. He was nrrested and fined SIOO aud costs on Aug. 5. An employe, Pete Saft, who lives with Alepasha, and who was arrested at the time a pin bottle of “white mule" was found in a can of lard at the restaurant, was discharged on a similar charge. Charges Against Mrs. Meyer Dismissed Charges of assault and battery against Mrs. Hal C. Meyer, 9 The Worthington, were discharged in city court today. Mrs. Meyer was arrested Nov. 29, when her automobile struck two lltth boys at Maryland and West streets. The boys, George Nasca 6, 428 West Pearl street and Nick Ktnnzicb, 5, 431 West Pearl street, were only slightly injured. CHARGES SON WITH STEALING. On an affidavit sworn to by his mother charging him with grand larceny, Richard Swan, 16, negro, 3337 East Thirty-Second street, wns arrested today Lottie Swan told the police a few days ago that Richard was missing and that he had taken money, chickens and ducks to the value of $35. Richard was arrested wht n he returned home. He admits stealing the chickens and ducks and selling them and also spending the money for a “big time." BOY SOLVES MYSTERY. BALHAM, England, Dec. 7. —Frederick Smith, aged 12, said to his school chum: “I wonder what it feels like to hang one’s self.” Two hours later he was found hanged to his bedpost by & cord.

LOSS FROM CUT IN RCFUAX RATES ONLY TEMPORARY. Mr. Mellon's opinion Is that if Congress should cut the surtax rntes to a maximum of 20 or 2.1 per cent. It would Involve only a temporary loss In Government revenue, f'-r he Is satisfied the reduced rates would bo productive of more revenue than the higher rates, due to the Increase In taxable transactions. Excessive tax rates have driven $lO.000.000,000 of the people’s wealth Into tax exempt securities, Mr. Mellon said. Government expenditures will contlnne extraordinarily high for many years.

Secretary Mellon said there will mature within th' next eighteen months, $6,750,000,000 of the short dated debt. This Includes tho Victory Loan, outstanding Treasury certificates of Indebtedness and War Saving securities.

Ho said It renders Imperative a policy of the utmost economy on the part of the Govern’ient. The Government. In order to refund the debt without unfavorable, effect on business or the Government itself, must avoid new undertakings that would throw additional burdens on tbe Treasury and might embarrass the refunding operations. Secretary Mellon reviewed the work of the Treasury and referred particularly to tho success thus far of refunding operations. He said the Treasury already had been able to bring about a better distribution of the early maturity of tha debt and that this fact should greatly facilitate tho refunding operations Incident to the maturity of the Victory Loan.

Arthur Loga, negro, testified that between April and July he paid Mabrey $lO a week for protection with the exception of two weeks, when there was a disagreement among the collectors as to how the money should be split.
