Mrs. Clnr.1 Sabor, twenty-seven years
old, was murdered in her home nt Glass
boro, N. J., early this morning. She
leaves three little children.
Mrs. Jennie Krasnc, her mother, was
shot in the left arm after grappling
with the murderer.
Charles Sabor, thirty-six years old,
husband of the murdered woman, wns
arrested on suspicion of having done
the shooting. He wns given a hearing
by a local justice of the pence, held
without bail and sent to the Woodbury
jail.
, Israel Krasne, the father of the mur
dered woman, wns arrested this after-,
noon as a material witness nnd held
under 1000 bail. He gave a check on
a Wilmington bank.
Sabor is a grocer in Main street,
Glassboro. 'He and his family live over
the store where the shooting occurred.
They came originally from Philadelphia.
Sabor Denies Guilt
Though Sabor was arrested, he denies
that he is guilty and says that masked
burglars entered his home early this
morning, shot his wife and mother-in-law
and fired a shot at him.
This story is supported by Mrs.
Krasnc.
Glassboro police, the county coroner
and detective nnd the county prosecutor
are working to clear up the mystery.
' Sabor himself mndc n long statement
after his arrest, in which he told of
hearing shots, waking to sec a maskoll
man standing in his doorway who fired
at him, and then finding his wife's
body.
Dr. Harry Clark, of Woodbury, the
Gloucester county physician, assisted
by Dr. Meredith J. Luffburry, of
Glassboro, performed an autopsy on
the murdered woman early this after
noon. The date for the formal inquest hns
not been fixed. Coroner J. Preston
Potter, and also Mayor of Clayton, have
i
U
1 1
taken charge of the investigation.
Mrs. Krasnc, mother of the murdered
woman, is in the Cooper Hospital,
Camden, where she was tnken for treat
ment. She has a bullet wound in her
left arm.
Mrs. Krasne made a statement today.
She was hysterical and told her story
with difficulty. This afternoon she had
recovered n little from the shock of the
shooting nnd repeated the details more
coherently.
Awakened by Shot
"Some time after 10 o'clock," said
Mrs. Krasne, "we had gone to bed
and I was half asleep when I thought
I heard voices outside the store. It
sounded like two men talking. I fell
asleep, nnd I do not know what time
It wns when I wns awakened by a
fchot. I thought it came from my son's
loom, where Charley was sleeping with
one of the children."
"A man came rushing into the room
where my dnughter nnd I slept. He
had a handkerchief tied over his face
and n pistol in his hand. He pointed
it nt my daughter and fired.
"He turned to run. I ran after him
and caught him. Ho was a man about
five feet eight inches tall. He wore
a black coat nnd n black slouch hat.
I grappled with him in the hallway.
It seemed that it was several minutes
that I struggled with him. Then my
strength gave out."
Mrs. Krasne, according to her story,
had been holding the hand in which
he held the pistol. Finally he wrenched
it free and raised the weapon to fire
at her. She threw up her left arm
and the bullet entered it.
Says Men Fled
The two men' then ran down the
stairs, after one of them had fired nt
Sabor, who by that time had been
aroused. Israel Krasne, father of the
' murdered woman, hnd also come into
the room by this time. Mrs. Krasnc
had tried to tear the handkerchief from
the face of the burglar, but did not
succeed. (
Sabor and Krasne left the house in
search of a doctor, Mrs. Krasne said,
after trying in vain to telephone from
the store. N
Doctor Luffbcrry, the family physi
cian, who has known the Snbors since
they came to Glassboro, was awakened
by them ringing his bell and kicking his
front door frantically.
Doctor Iiuilberry said: "Sabor
shouted to me, 'Doctor, come quick.
' Burglars have killed my poor wife.' I
naked him why he didn't get the police
i if'burglars were in his home. I wept
with the two men, and found Mrs.
i Sabor dead. The bullet had severed a
1 ' largo blood vessel, and she had bled to
deaths
"- Jf J'l have, known the Snbors for a long

IRIEO, U. S. REPORT
Probers' Findings Presented to
House Declare Evidence
Flimsy and Makeshift
PROSECUTION IS SCORED
Ity the Associated Press
Washington, July 2.1. Thomas J.
Mooney did not receive full justice in
his trial nt San Francisco for nlleged
connection with the prcp.-lredncss day
bomb explosion, according to a report of
.Tohn n. Dcnsmorc, former special agent
of the Department of Justice, who in
vestigated the case for the government.
The report, dated November 1, 11118,
wns submitted to the House today in
response to a resolution.
"The plain truth is," the report snid.
"that there is nothing nbout the case
to produce a feeling of confidence that
the dignity nnd majesty of the law have
been upheld.
"There is nowhere anything re
sembling consistency, the effort being
n patchwork of incongruous makeshift
nnd often of desperate expediency."
The resolution called for information
ns to activities of the Department of
Labor in the case of Dcnsmorc's re
port was forwarded by Secretary Wil
son, accompanying his own statement.
LOGUE CRITICIZES
U. S. COMMISSIONER
Says He Is "Passing Buck" in
Liquor Hearing When Tes
timony Is Refused
Criticism of United States Commis
sioner Mnnley. including a charge that
he was "passing the buck," wns made
by J. Washington Lngue in the Dis
trict Court in the Federal Puilding to
dny during n hearing of a saloonkeeper
who was charged with violating the
wartime prohibition law.
It nppenred that a woman who, ac
cording to agents of the Department of
Justice, had told them she purchased
the whisky from the defendant, was
prepared to take the witness stand nnd
deny that she ever made such a stote
ment. Commissioner Mnnley would not
permit her to testify. Neither would he
permit n patrolman called as a wit
ness for the defense to take the stand.
Mr. Loguc appeared as counsel for the
snloonmnn, Paul J. Kilbride, of Twelfth
street and Susquehanna nvenuc.
According to Agents Spraguc and
Foley, they saw him sell Mrs. Marga
ret Tyler n half pint of whisky fbr
seventy-five cents. This occurred on
Saturday. The government ngents
snid they stopped the woman on the
street after bIic left the saloon and
that she then admitted that she had
purchased it from the saloon-keepur.
Following a remark made by the com
missioner to the effect that there was a
place higher up for such argument, evi
dently meaning the higher courts, Mr.
Logue snid.
"Oh, there is a place higher up, is
tlcrc? So you are passing the buck?
Here we hnve the princlp.il witness nnd
you will not permit her to get on the
stand."
The saloonkeeper was held in ?1000
bail for court.

this stntement.

telegraphs from Maine that he
knows nothing of deposits made

"I'm the goat in this thing."

"Moreover," he ndded, "if sonic
people don't soon speak I will have
something to say nnd place the re
sponsibility where it belongs. There
nre other people in this thing."
Moycr, highly nervous, fnce un
shnven, dashed from the bnck door of
his home nt Third street nnd Olney
avenue nt 10 :.10 o'clock this morning.
He was overtaken before he entered an
automobile at the wheel of which sat
his brother, f!. S. Mojer.
At first he refused to reply to ques
tions. He puffed furiously nt a eignr
ctte. Suddenly his attitude changed.
Going to Take Rest
"Yes. I'm going away," he snid. "I
must get n rest for n few dnys. I do
not know where I'm going. When I
feel better I will return nnd do whnt-
cver I enn to help the receiver."
He wns then interrogated regarding
the business of the bank whjch caused
its collapse. Itegarding the notes w'.-h,
it is alleged, had been rediscounted he
snid ;
"Mnny things were caused by neglect.
The mistakes were those of the heart.
They were mistakes of judgment, nnd
there was no intentional wrongdoing.
I am waiting nnd taking all the blame
on my shoulders now. For the present
I'm the goat of this affair, but if some
one doesn't speak pretty soon I'll have
something to say which will cause quite
a stir."
Moycr reiterated his statement of
being n "goat." nnd ndded that he will
see that the blame goes where it be
longs. "Do you expect any more arrests?"
he was asked.
"I would rather not say," he replied.
"The entire cane is in the hands of the
district attorney."
Mnyer then jumped in the automo
bile and departed toward the city.

came to the little window and spoke
to newspaper men.
"Will you deny or confirm the stnte

"I will neither deny nor confirm it,"
said Mr. Ambler. Then he slammed the

Paris, .luh 2.T The Japanese dele
gation to the Peace Conference today
issued a denial of assertions that the
Shantung settlement in the fierman
pence treat.i was in exchange for the
withdrawal of the Japanese contention
regarding the raiial claiHC in the league
of nations eciennnt.
Conversations on possible compro
mises which would solve the Shan
tung problem constantly are taking
place. The opinion prevails in confer
ence circles that some arrangement
probably will be reached by which the
gentlemen's agreement formulated bc
twicii Japan and the other great powers
that Japan shall return Shantung to
China will lv made public.
While this agreement was not for
mally prepared nnd signed by the great
powers, it is known thnt notes were
made, but that the Chinese delegates
were never shown nny sort of written
document nnd consequently refused to
sign the trenty. They said verbnl state
ments were ton vague to insure thera
ngninst the permanent loss of Shan-!
tung.
While it is not known positively that,
the Chinese would sign the German
trenty nnd ithdraw their objections to
the Shantung settlement in'the treaty
if the gentleincn'h agreement were
definitely put on record in writing, the,
opinion seems general in conference
circles thnt such would be the case,
although some of the delegntes appar
ently believe the terms of the gentle
men's agreement must be amplified to
insure n return of full political rights
in Shantung to China.
Washington, July 2.1. (Ity A. P.)
Senator Page, Bepublicnn. Vermont,
frankly outlined his objections to the
peace treaty to President Wilson nt the
White House today and told the Presi
dent he would not npprove it. Beyond
tins statement Senator I'age would not
discuss the conference.
Senator Sterling, South Dakota, nn
other White House caller, said neither
he nor the President mentioned the
Shantung settlement. They discussed
Aiticle X of the league of nations
covenant referring to protection of na
tions against "external aggression,"
nnd the clnuse relating to the With
diawal of nations from the league.
Mr. Wilson's condition rontinued to
iniproie todny. and it was expected that
within a few dayp he would have en
tirely i isnvered from the effects of nn
nttucl. of intestinal trouble. The Presi
dent, however, still is wenk, nnd for
that reason held confluences today in
his study in the White House Instead
of in the executive offices.
Inquiry at the White House todny
concerning published leports that the
Sbantiiug provision of the peace trenty
was Piesideut Wilson's personal solu
tion of the problem brought neither con
til mntion nor deninl and only the state
ment that no comment would be made.
! I'nable to Sway Japanese
Senators who have discussed the
Shantung provision with the President
stnted. however, that they had not been
given to understand that the President
proposed the Shnntiing provision as a
solution of the problem, but that he had
found himself unable to convert the
Japanese delegates to any other view.
The senators said they had been told
that Piemiers Clemenceau and Lloyd
(Jeorge represented to the President that
they were bound by the agreements of
their governments with Japan, and that
if the Japanese statesmen were to be
converted to nny other views, the Presi
dent himself would hnve to undertake
the attempt. It was futile, the sena
tors snid they were told.
Senntors culling nt the White House
today were the last on the original list
I of iifteeu selected by the President,
but invitations for otlier ltepub
llcnns to cull nt the White House will
go forward from day to day, It being
tlie President's desire to confer with'
all of them before he starts on his tour J
of the country. '
President Collects Documents
President Wilson has been devoting1
some of his time recently to gettjng
together documents used by the Ameri
can ptfiee delegntiou at Paris which
have been nsked for by the Senate in its?
consideration of the treaty. Secretary
Lansing, who was to arrive In Wesh-f
ington late today from Paris, was ex
pected to assist In this work. s j
VhlIe the foreign relations commit-
tee has not yet reached a decision as
