"VAMPIRE BOOK"
AND DIARY SHOW
WOMAN UNTRUE
Coroner's Disclosures Put Yew
complexion on Lite or
Dead Adventuress
1 At Chicago.
Chlrafo Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, March 10. Ruth Ran
dall, whose letters and expense ac
counts were made public by the
coroner, now appears in the light
of a vampire. Her body lies in the
morgue on a slab adjoining that
which holds the form of Captain
Clifford Bleyer whom she killed
when he showed a disposition to
break relations "with her. Physi
cians believe Bleyer died six hours
before the woman finally took her
own life. The police believe she
first slew him and after she was
certain he was quite dead, she
turned the pistol upon herself.
The shots that brought an abrupt
end of the liaison of Captain Bleyer
and Mrs. Randall, have brought the
unsuspecting wife, Mrs. Bleyer, to
her knees in misery and helpless
ness. Despite her. misery, the
tortured widow denied reports that
she would refuse to look upon her
dead husband or permit his burial
from their home. His funeral ar
rangements will be determined as
soon as his father can arrive from
Cuba. Ruth Randall will be buried
quietly Thursday.
Correspondence and expense ac
counts seized in the flat where Mrs.
Randall slew Captain Bleyer and
herself show that she invaded other
homes and that she was receiving
money from other men. There were
letters from other wives, excoriat
ing her for luring their husbands.
In her "vampire book" were the
names of many men and opposite
these names entries of money she
had received from them. She also
kept a diary, so sensational in its
disclosures that authorities are sup
pressing it.
Telephone Operators
Of United States Plan to
Form National Union
A i
Premier of .Greece
Urges Stern Measures
Against Turk Sultan
London, March 10. The peace
conference spent the day in. trying
to work out the details of military
and naval plans in connection with
Turkey, giving attention to Ar
menia. -Admiral Beaty, Winston
Spencer Churchill, 'secretary for
war, and others were called in to
give their opinions. Premier Veni
zelos of Greece was also present and
again insisted thaf the allies should
take the sternest measures against
the sultan.
The general plan of action was
not changed, however, but as a re
sult of the conference it became
known that the military domination
at Constantinople is likely to take
the form of allied military control
!of certain Turkish governmental ac
tivities, among thera probably the
'war department.
I The conferees were careful to
make clear that this does not mean
the takuiff over of the Turkish kov-
ernment- at the outset and would
i.ot in the future if Turkey shows
an inclination to abide by the terms
of the armistice and cease massacres.
Miss Julia O'Connor, president of
tl. : National Telephone Operators'
union, who headed the fight in New
England which resulted in the for
mation of the first operators' union,
is enroute from San Francisco to
New York to lead the 12,000 phone
girls of that city in a movement to
form a union. Should the move
be successful labor leaders believe
that the 12,000 New York operators
will be unionized as part of the In
ternational Brotherhood of Electri
cal Workers and affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor.

Bun -Remarkable contribution to the
aesthetic movement In motion picture pro
duction, "Woman" is so entrancing to the
eye and so beguilleg to the thoughts and
sentiments of the spectator that it lures
him into a state of dreamy forgetfulness
of himself and the little world in which
he has been living. "Woman" will con

to be the best picture shown at this

CAILLAUX SAYS
EMBASSY LAID
TRAP FOR HIM
Not Warned When He Went
To Italy During War,'
He Asserts at Trea
son Trial.
Paris, March 10. Only two wit
nesses were heard today at the trial
of former Premier Joseph Caillaux
before the senate as a high court
on the charge of intriguing to pro
mote a dishonorable and premature
peace with Germany. They were
Charles Roux, counsellor of the
French embassy at Rome, and Com
mandant Noblemaire,-former mili
tary attache at the same embassy.
Their testimony related to the ac
tivities of the accused in Italy in
1916. , v
. " M. Roux swore that Caillaux' re
lations in Italy were confined to
pacifists, the former premier "asso
ciating exclusively with men present
under indictment on the charge of
having had intelligence with the
enemy. The witness added that Cail
laux was not a victim of imprudence,
but had chosen his suspected com
panions advisedly, which was the
reason the embassy had not warned
him as it had done in the case of
Deputy Leboucq, a few months be
fore when Leboucq was frequenting
the same company.
Never Forewarned.
M. Caillaux laid emphasis on the
failure of the embassy to warn him
and said that if he had been fore
warned, he would have ceased his
relations with the pacifists immed
iately. "The embassy was under the im
pression that I was in Italy for no
good purpose," M. Caillaux said. "It
thought I was in Italy on treason
bent and laid a trap for me. It
wanted to get me, and in order to
do so, was willing to jeopardize the
security of France and give me time
to accomplish a separate peace, and
this had never for -a moment been
in my mind."
A severe cross examination by M.
Moro-Giafferi of the accused coun
sel and by Caillaux himself, was
unable to shake their evidence.

Stands Pat on Program
To Oppose Bond Issues
Chicago Tribane-Omaha Bee Veased Wire.
Washington, March 10. The
United States treasury department
will adhere to its program to op-1
pose further bond issues whicn
would add to the public debt, either
for the purpose of reducing taxation
or for the payment of bonuses to
soldiers. Neither will it abandon or
postpone its plan to create from tax
ation a sinking fund of $250,000,000
annually with which to buy in exist
ing Liberty bonds and stabilize the
bond market.

all doubts were removed as to the

Banker Blames Excess
Profit Tax As Factor
In High Cost of Living
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire,
Chicago, March 10. "The excess
profits tax is a contributing factor
to the high cost of living," said
Richard S. Hawes of St. Louis, presi
dent of the American Bankers' asso
ciation. .
"Most of the war revenue law
needs revision to sound principles,
which will aid in rectifying the bank
ing situation, he affirmed.
Mr. Hawes said that with their
usual optimism, Americans thought
they were enjoying unexampled
prosperity, but that most of this
prosperity is unreal because people
overemphasize the significance of
wages and money is being paid in
terms of an inflated price level for
goods and service.
