"Anything is Justifiable in the interests of science" sail Nathan Leopold, Jr., one of the murderers of Robert Franks, in discussing the crime he committed. "It is no crime to use a human being in the! interests of scientific research. It is no more than impaling a beetle upon a pin." "I'll admit we're in Dutch," said Richard Loeb, who helped slay the boy. "It may be I'll get a couple of years for this, but it will be the making of me." There is the attitude of the two living principles in the most astound-- ? ing murder in the history of Chicago, and Chicago has been the scene of many weird and grusome crimes. Young Leopold, 19 and a Ph. D. at 18, is the son of Nathan Leopold, owner of the Manitou steamship line and other enterprises, including a His wealth is ;great box factory. conservatively estimated at $10,000,-000. Richard Loeb, fellow student and murderer of Leopold, is the eon of Albert H. Leob, vice president )of Sears, Roebuck and Co., whose estate is readily worth $10,000,000. Loeb also is a nephew of Jacob Loeb former president of the Chicago school board and for a long time the "stormy petrel" of that institution. All members of the Loeb family are very wealthy. : Jacab Franks, father of the murdered boy is a retired broker, who could command $4,000,000 easily, perhaps very much more. The attitude of the young murderers amazes all with whom they have come in contact. Sunday they went in automobiles, under guard of a quad of detectives, and reenacted the entire crime. They drove to the point where the boy was picked up from the street, struck over the head with a padded chisel, smothered in a robe and a cloth thrust into hls mouth. They indicated at the point where the discovery was made that the boy was iiead five minutes after they kidnapped him. Then they drove around for a time, and finally took a straight course to the Hegewich swamp. During this ride the murdered boy was disrobed and his clothing kicked into a bundle In the rear of the car. At the swamp the young murderers showed how Leob had remained in the hired car while Leopold carried the nude tody of the boy to a large culvert and thrust him into it Had he pushed the body a foot further into the culvert, it is doubtful if the mystery Would ever had been solved, as they had poured hydrochloric acid over the boy's face to destroy his features and the action of the swamp water soon would have eroded the flesh from the bones. It would have been almost impossible to identify the that it ever skeleton, assuming would have been found. The cunning of the murderers and the careful plans which they had made for the crime, which was conceived last November, were shown in the fact that Leopold had provided himself with rubber boots to be uses' In carrying the body into the swamp. Muddy shoes might have afforded a clue, but the boots were washed after he emerged from the swamp and this .wiped out that chance of discovery. After the kidnapping1 and murder the youthful criminals drove leisurely back to the city, stopping at a remote point to burn the bloody blanket in which the boy had been smothered. ! ifellow cold-blood- ed High Austrian Officer Shot Vienna, Three shots were fired at Chancellor Ignatx Seipel when he arrived In Vienna Sunday.

Deep regret that the United States has enacted the immigration bill, including a clause barring Japanese, is voiced in the official statement issued by the foreign office. re"The Japanese government mains unshaken in its opposition to this discriminatory legislation against Japanese, and it has instructed the Japanese ambassador at Washington to lodge a solemn protest with the United States government on this occasion," concludes the communique. The document describes the immigration bill and its effects upon .Japanese entering the United States and continues: "Since the introduction of the Johnson immigration bill, the base of the present act, into the house (the American house of representatives), last December, the Japanese government has frequently and earnestly called the attention of the United States government to the Japanese exclusion provision. The Japanese government, therefore deeply regrets that this provision has been enacted in spite of its representations and the vigorous and repeated efforts made by the president and secretary of state of the United States to prevent the inclusion of the in quesdiscriminatory provision TWISTER CUTS THROUGH T NOTED FRENCHMAN 1 CALLED BY DEATH MANY ARE KILLED AND INJURED FRENCH AMBASSADOR TO LONWHEN TORNADO VISITS DON AT OUTBREAK OF WAR SOUTH DIES IN PARIS Funnel Shaped Cloud Sweeps Paul Cambon Saw Strenuous .Times Clean Its Passage Over Five As French Tussled With HostilBlocks in Welunka, ities, While Stationed In Oklahoma England d Brown Must Face Courtmartlal San Francisco.

Jules Cambon, later the best known of the three, was ambassador to Washington; Paul was, accredited to London, and the third brother was in a similar post at Constantinople. M. Paul Cambon was born January! 20, 1843. He was called to the Pari sian bar some twenty years later, and work in various government depart ments was transferred to the diplomatic service and appointed minister plenipotentiary at Tunis. In 188(J he became French ambassador to Ma drid, and two years later went to Constantinople' in the same capacity. In 1898 he presented his credentials as ambassador to the Court of St. James.
