    INSANITY PLEA
IS PROBABLE IN
DESAULLES TRIAL
Attendance at Trial Limited;
Cameras and Knitting Par
ties Arc Barred
By Associated Press
Mineola, N. Y„ Nov. 19.—.Selection
of a jury to try Mrs. Bianca De Saul
plrs. Chilean heiress, for the murder
• her divorced husband, John Longer
De Saulles. politician and former
Vale athlete, was expected to go for
v.-ard rapidly after the opening ol
iMe trial here to-day before Justice
Manning in the Supreme Court. A
special panel of 150 talesmen had
been called.
As Mrs. iJe Saulles' counsel has ad
mitted there is no dispute regarding
ihe fact that she shot her former
husband, there is much speculation
as to her defense. While no an
nuuncements have been made, it had
'ietn intimated that "irresponsibility'
growing out of mother love for her
young son "Jack" who. by court
older after the divorce trial, was
placed in the custody of the father
for live months each year, may be
the main plea. It was also indicated
that it may be shown the mother was
driven to desperation by fear that De
Saulles was poisoning the mind ot
her only child against her and would
supplant her in his son's affections.
Anrouncement has been made that
no attack would be made on the
character of Mr. De Saulles, at the
trial, which means evidence taken]
at prh'ate hearings previous to tfie
gi anting of the divorce will not be
revealed.
SeiAra Bianca Vergara-Errazuris,
mother of the defendant, a member
of i,i distinguished South American ,
family, is expected to be one of the
principal witnesses for the defense. J
Little Jack De Saulles, innocent
cause of the murder, will not be In
court. Attendance will be limited to
seating capacity; cameras will not be
allowed and knitting parties have
been prohibited.
Indications that the defense would
be insanity were apparent as soon us
Thomas J. Smith, Mrs. De Saulles'
counsel, began examining talesmen,
asking them whether they would ac
cept insanity and mental incompe
tency as a valid defense and would
acquit if it was shown that at the
time of the commission of a crime a
defendant has labored under such
detective reasoning us not to under
stand the nature of the act.
Mrs. De Saulles appeared selt
coinposed when she entered the
courtroom to face her ordeal. She
w.'S dressed very plainly in a white
shirtwaist and black skirt. Her sis
ter and orother. who came here from
Chile, occupied seats nearby.
T II\IU;ED WITH FIGHTING
Robert Gains and his wife. Georgia,
colored, were arrested at Herr and
Seventh streets, Saturday evening,
charged with fighting. They were
ii iking a disturbance at the Market
direct subway last week, when the

State Highway Commissioner
Tells What State Is Doing
to Aid United States
J. Denny O'Xeil, State Highway
Commissioner, speaking before the
Rotary Club at luncheon in the Y. M.
C. A. building to-day, said that in
view of the urgent need of what he
termed "war emergency highways"
in certain parts of the state and in
ability to procure laborers in unlim-.
ited numbers, the State Highway De
partment will limit road construction
in the next year largely to such roads
as will aid materially in the prosecu
tion of the war. Already this has
been started in the building of a roau
designed to supply the city of Al
toona with coal this winter without
relying upon the railroads. Good
roads lor the transportation of thou
sands ot' government trucks and au
tomobiles from west to east through
the state also call for the immediate
attention of the Departmen and Com
missioner O'Neil will visit ten coun
ties this week with the prosecution
of enterprises of this kind as his
object.
Commissioner O'Xeil spoke also
of the need of new laws regulating
fraternal insurance in Pennsylvania,
and bespoke the interest ot the Ro
tary Club in tnis matter on behalt
of the new commissioner of insur
ance.
The club will meet to-morrow
evening as the guests of John Heatli

ment of appointment of the board's I

OPEN HEARTH CLOSED
BY LACK OF FUEL
[Continued from I'irst Page]
said not to be acute at the present
time. Most dealers are fairly well
supplied with the large sizes, but
small sizes are still scarce, it was
said to-day at the regular emi-
I weekly session of the coal commis
sion.
Some of the manufacturers are not
so well fixed. The open hearth of
the Harrisburg Pipe and Pipe Bend
ing Works was not in operation to
day and will not be for a few
days owing to the fact that the com
pany has run out of coal. The fuel
commission lias ordered seven cars
of coal, which will be procured from
[the Westmoreland district in a few
days. There are a score of men idle
at the open hearth plant, and some
of the shops of the pipe bending
works cannot operate until the open
hearth is working again.
Boroughs Get Coal
During the past week the fuel com
mission supplied Dauphin with two
cars of coal. There was no coal at
all in Dauphin, and the people were
hauling wood from the mountains.
Highspire and Steelton were in the
same condition, and were supplied
by the commission.
A matter before the commfttee at
the present time is the recent com
munication from the fuel adminis
trator in regard to electrical signs,
display advertisements and all the
unnecessary electrical signs which
are burned at night to attract atten
tion to shows, names of plays, ad
vertisenfients, names or stores, the
aters, etc. The new ruling of the
fuel administrator, which is directed
to the manufacturers of electricity
for these signs, directs that coal may
not be burned to generate electricity
for use in these signs before 7.45 or
after 11, in the. evening.
Use River Coiil
Ross A. Hickok, county fuel ad
ministrator, is in communication with
the Harrisburg Light and Power
Company to ascertain how much
coal is used by them in the manu
facture of electricity for the signs
under the ruling. This morning the
light and power company stated that
they use river coal, and only about
fifty tons a month of bituminous
coal. The fuel administrator will
ascertain how much river coal is
needed In the city for work necessary
for the carrying on of the war. It is
understood that the Central Iron
and Steel Company which Is engaged
on government orders, uses river
coal. If any manufacturers engaged
on government work are in need of
river coal and unable to get it, the
supply to the light and power com
pany will be curtailed.

Medill McCormick,
Back From Trenches,
Sees War Till 1919
Washington, Nov. 19.—The United
States must win the war with in
creased effort In all directions, and
greater co-ordination of activities.
Otherwise it will continue indefinite
ly. This is the conclusion reached
by Congressman Medill McCormick,
of Illinois, who has Just returned
from Europe, where he spent ten
weeks studying the war.
The war Is to be won in Washing
ton and iri the factories of this coun
try. Mr. McCormick declares.
He has no criticism of the gov
ernment, but he points out clearly
that there is the greatest need for a
real war council in Washington, a
council that will control and plan
and unify the exertion of the nation's
strength.
"The Germans are not winning the
war." said Mr. McCormick. "but
neither are we.
"The war to-day presents a stale
mate from which we are unable to
extricate ourselves because of the
collapse of Russia and the unreadi
ness of the United States.
"Nowhere in Europe did I find an
informed soldier or public man who
believed that a military decision
could be achieved before 1919, when
the United States might be ready to
add effectively to the sum of pres
sure upon the central empires. Per
haps economic conditions or political
events In Germany may induce peace
before that time, but although Ger
many is suffering progressively more
than her western enemies, her auto
cratic machine and her economic
reserves seem altogether adequate to
hold her together through two more
winters.
