SECOND CHILD SLAIN IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS Fiend Murders Little Girl in Brunswick (N. J.) Hotel. BODY LEFT IN SUITCASE NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Dec. 23. Less than twenty-four hours after little Gilbert Bein. 5, had been found murdered in a tub in New York, the mutilated body of Tessie Kueharski, 5, was found in the closet of a hotel room here today. Both children were slain by a "tiend” and police are working on the theory that one man is responsible for the crimes. Tessie's body was found in the Hotel Albany at 3 a. m.. by Patrolman William Savage. Police had been searching for her all night. She had l>cen missing since 4 o’clock yesterday. Gilbert Bein. 5, was lured to the cellar under his father’s tailor shop on the east side of New York, Wednesday afternoon, placed In a tub and killed with a club. It was not twenty-four hours later that the Kueharski girl vanished. The police have the name of a man whom they say entered the Hotel Albany with the little girl. This man told persons in the hotel the child was his granddaughter. His description does not tally with that of the man suspected of killing Gilbert Bein. The father of the Bein boy said the slayer was a youth, tall and dark. The man who took the Kueharski girl Into the hotel is about 50 years old. Tessie Kueharski lived with her mother at the Bellmore Hotel. She was playing on the barroom floor when last seen by her mother. A short time afterward the suspect was seen entering the hotel with her. He emerged at 7 p. m., without the child. The body was found in a suit case, which had been thrown into the closet. A parallel was seen by police in the fact that the Bein boy's body was found in a tub, while Tessie's was in the suit case. In each instance the murderer hail thrust the victim in by force.

CHINESE TO TRY PUBLICITY PLAN AGAINST JAPAN Believe They Have Found Weak Spot in Armor of Nipponese. WASHINGTON, Dec. 23. —The Chinese delegates today are convinced they have found the weakness in the Japanese armor. Henceforward, during the <">n ference they will direct their attack unceasingly toward this supposedly vulner al!e point. They believe such a policy as this is their only hope of winning out on the Shantung question and the question of the twenty one demands. The chief weapon of the Chinese dele gates is to be publlcjiv. The weakness they believe they have discovered in the Japanese armor is a newly developed sensitiveness to criticism of the motives < f the Japanese government and a rapid-ly-increasing national desire to have the world and particularly China, think well of Japan. At tin- next meeting of the Far Eastern committee, China will pr.-ss tier demand that the committee give consider ntion to the momentous question of the twenty <uie demands. When that prob lent has been disposed of the Chinese likewise will insist on the committee taking up the Shantung question, pro v bled no favorable reply has been re ceiveil by that time from Tokio. A public statement of one of the prin < ipal Japanese delegates gave the Chi nose their clew. In reply to a question as to whether Japan really had a sincere desire to settle the Shantung qurs lion in a manner satisfactory to China, the Japanese statesman, perhaps unwittingly, let the cat out of the ting. The Chinese, he said, had given the Shantung question an amount of publicity out of proportion to its importance lie intimated that the Japanese people regret the unfavorable criticism heaped upon them as a result of the Shantung 1 controversy, and declared that the Jap suese government considered It highly Important that the matter be cleared up. j
