"While, according to some dispatches I

Chicago Yesterday
l Chicago, May (i. Mrs. Vera
Trepagnier, of New Orleans, who
; shot and killed Paul F. Volland, a

I ing, which is more than a hundred
years old, was known as the "John

, was presented by Trumbell to a
Virginia bride as a wedding gift, and
many years later came into tho pos
session of Mrs. Trepagnier, now a
widow sixty years old.
"In my state men lie, gamble,
cheat in business; but they do not
lay hands on women." she said.
| "I cannot deny shooting Paul Vol
[ I land; ho choked me. I do not re
j member firing, but I recall his say
t ing, 'You've killed me.'
Had Not Meant to Klioot
, "His fingers relaxed from my
' throat and he fell before, me. Then
; I grew faint and fell, too. I had not
' meant to shoot him. He had robbed
II me, J felt, of the only dear thing left
8 1 to me. He had evaded mo for two
years."
She said she was born in Belfast,
Ireland, the daughter of a shipbuild
" er and came to America when a
M small girl. She married Ellis Tre
' pagnier, of New Orleans, a sugar
'■ planter, who died after the loss of
t his fortune. Friends obtained for
• her a position in Washington, she
said, where she met Volland. He was
r reputed a connoisseur on art and she
C had studied art in her early days,

300,000 a Month Mark Will Be
Reached in June, Says
Secretary Baker
Now York. May 6.—The one mil
lionth man of the American Expedi
tionary Force will embark for home
next week, Secretary of War Baker
said after his arrival here from
France aboard the transport George
Washington. The homeward move
ment of troops, Mr. Baker said, is
progressing in a most satisfactory
manner, and he added that the 300,-
000 a month mark would be reach

Speaking briefly of his visit to
France, Secretary Baker said:
"The American Army abroad is in
splendid condition. The third army,
which 1 inspected on the German
frontier is beyond doubt the best
equipped army in the world."
Secretary Baker said he visited
but one embarkation camp—that at
Brest. "Its condition is simply ideal,"
he asserted, and you can get the
same expression from any doughboy
on this ship. I did not see any of
the others but am informed that the
same good condition prevails at all."
