Sunday Amusement Question Argued By the Ministerial Association
Members of the congregations of the various churches of the city yesterday were asked to make known their sentiment toward the proposed opening of amusement houses on Sunday, as a result of which the Richmond Ministerial association sent a telegram to the three representatives from Wayne county in the state legislature asking them to oppose the measure now pending before the legislature known as the Zearing bill. In sending the telegram to Repre sentatives Crawford and Judkins. and Senator Commons, the association holds that it represents 2,000 church workers in the city of Richmond. The telegram reads as follows: The Richmond Ministerial association in consonance with the action of their respective congregations protest against the passage of the Zearing bill." The associaton which met today, went on record as being decidedly op posed to even concerts being given in this city on Sundays, but no action will be taken by the association to stop the concert which will be given in this city next Sunday. Miss White wrote a communication to the associaUon n which she accuses the members of the association of giving out false and misleading statements regarding the concert she is presenting. In her communication to the association Miss White said, "I personally do not believe in Sunday theaters, legitimate and vaudeville, for humanitarian reasons. I see no harm in opening the moving picture show houses. The Minneapolis orchestra desired to come to this city because of the latter's reputation as a musicloving community." "In this state the Indianapolis Sym phony Orchestra has given concerts

iff (John Paul Farrell, at right in custody.) NEW YORK, Feb. 10. John Paul Farrell, the assistant janitor of the fashionable Fulton apartments, who confessed that he murdered his employer, Mrs. Marie Herrera, by devising a nitro-glycerine bomb and leaving it at her door, has denied his subsequent confession to the effect that he was guilty of a number of other bomb i outrages, including one in which his daughter, Mrs. Helen Taylor, a former actress, had been killed. Farrell contends that his nerves were so overwrought by the strain of the "third degree" examination to which he was subjected, that he did not know what he was saying. MRS.

If the clergy wilfully misrepresent, what can you expect of the rest of the people." After one of the members had read the letter, cries of "abused girl" and "poor little thing" were heard from various members present. That the Richmond Civic Union should be the organization for the ministers to confer with as to Sunday amusements, was the decision reached. The Good Citizenship committee and the Sabbath Observance committee will take the matter up with the union and report to the association the result at the next meeting. After the meeting the Rev. Hayworth in conferring with some of the members of the association, said he believed it would be no more than right that the association go on record as being in favor of free Sunday concerts in this city. "The working people who have to labor all day, every day in the week, are deserving of some recreaUon on Sundays," said the Rev. Hayworth. "The parks of the city afford some amusement In the summer to those who are able to visit them on Sundays, but In winter. Richmond is the deadest town in the state. The people stand about the streets as if paralysed r.nd do not know what to do with tliemseivc." .

Mr. Blumeling said that when he came into possession of the letters he realized their significance and took them to what he considered the only independent newspaper in New York. Blumeling is a brother-in-law of the Stumpf brothers, one of whom was employed as a clerk in Archbold's office. He said the letters were brought to him by Charles Stumpf and W. W. Winfield and that he negotiated the sale receiving between $8,000 and $9,000. The money was equally divided between Stumpf, Winfield and himself and Blumeling said he never had any pangs of conscience. Place For Footprint.

IS THEREJPLOT ON To Drop the Public Utilities Measure?
(National Nv Association) INDIANA PO LIS, Feb. 10. Senator Aiken this afternoon introduced a bill providing for the disposition by will of fraternal order insurance orders when the beneficiary or direct heirs are not living when the poliobecomes payable. In the belief that the public utilities measure, advocated by Senator Shively will be passed. Senator Grube today announced his intention to withdraw his referendum bill which gives he voters a right to a referendume lection on all public service franchises and will issue a statement to this effect. The belief is growing that the two houses will be encouraged in a sort of mock jealousy towards each other's utilities bill until the session grows late and then both bills will be dropped and another substituted which will ! be jammed through in a hurry.
