fWIFE SLAIN IN I DREAM TRAGEDY n New Jersey Man Tells of Kill- E ing "Intruder" and Finds |Pk His Sjiousc Dead ' New York, Nov. 25.—James Sap pin. of Irvingrton, N. J., dreamed Sunday night he shot at a man who had climbed through the window of his bedroom. He awoke this morn ing to find his wife lying beside him dead. One chamber of a ,32-caliber revolver which Sappin always kept under his pillow had been dis charged. Sappin called the Irvington police headquarters when he found that his wife had been killed by a bullet wound in her head. The story of his dream he told to the first patrol man who arrived at his home at 180 Colt street. Insistent questioning by the police to-day has failed to break l. down the story of the dream mur der. "Clots Btuckliand Note" During the night, Sappin said, lie dreamed he had received a black hand letter demanding SI,OOO. Dater, he told the police, he saw in his dream a man clambering over the window sill of his bedroom. As the intruder approached, Sappin drew the revolver from under his pillow and fired once. Whether tho shot took effect, Sap pin said, he did not know, for his dream drifted oft at that point and he could recall nothing more until he awoke this morning. Sappin, who is employed in an Irvington factory, had been married seven years. His wife was 32 years old. They had two children. John, 4 years old, and Agnes, 2. Both youngsters were asleep when the po lice arrived. Married Dife Seemed Happy During his seven years of married life Sappin told-the police he had had no serious disagreement with his wife and their neighbors said to day that they had always regarded Mr. and Mrs. Sappin as a congenial and happy couple. No possible motive for the killing of Mrs. Sappin was suggested. 41 Many Italians live in the neigh borhood of the Sappin home, a two family structure. Blackhand activi ties have been the subject of recent rumors in that district. The Irvington police seemed in clined to credit Sappin's story to-day, but he was held for investigation. London Critic Blames Wilson For Peace Delay Tjondon. Nov. 25.—The action of the American Senate in apparently rejecting the peace treaty "seems a 4 moral collapse on the western front," J. L. Garvin writes in the Weekly Observer. The weeklies generally, however, view the Senate's stand at a reaction from the war and an unescapable phase of reconstruction. They ex pect the next session of Congress to be "calmer" and to realize the ne cessity of "American co-operation in restoring normal conditions throughout the world." Defeat of the treaty was due chiefly to opposition to "President Wilson's policies," Garvin points out. j When re-elected, Wilson became virtually a "dictator," leaving the Republicans out of war jobs and without representation in the Peace | Commission. Taft, Root and Hughes j might have been named as dele- I gates to the Paris deliberations, Gar- I vin asserts, but instead the Presi- ! dent excluded these representatives of ] "at least one-half of America." Even though the Republicans con trol the Senate, which has concur rent powers in treaty making, and hold th "fate of Wilson's policies in the hollow of its hand," the Presi dent chose to ignore this party, the writer points out. Had Lloyd George and Clemenceau faced a similar sit uation they "would have fallen long ago," he declares. "The President relied upon appeal ing \to public opinion to override the Senate Republicans," Garvin says, <1 and "compelled them to fight This was more than political human na ture could stand. They determined to use their power to defeat and humiliate Wilson and break down what they termed the 'Presidential! autocracy.' "The PresidentSs illness ruined his j last chance. If the treaty is de- j feated no man ever will hold again ] the place Wilson held in Paris." Cunard Line Takes ' Over the Imperator , .Now York. Nov. 25.
