WASHINGTON. Nov. S (Ity A. J'.) The political complexion of the next congress, having been tletinitely established, interest turned Kday on the probable lineup on the question of modification of the prohibition enforcement laws. Both the "drys" and "wets" were claiming a victory as the result of Tuesday's election. For the anti-saloon league, Wayne j In.

KILLFTD BY STONT: i I FINGER PRINTS ON SHIRT MAY REVEAL SLAYER Faint Smudges Found on Gar ment of Murdered New Brunswick Pastor. EXPECT REPORT TODAY Baffling Murder Case Will Not Go Before Grand Jurv Until Next Teek. NEW RRUNSWICK. N. J.. Nov. 9. (By A. P.) Finger prints found on the bosom of the shirt worn by Rev. Kdward Wheeler Hall may picture to experts one of the prin cipals In the murder of the recuor and choir singer. Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills, it became known through an authoritative source today. The authorities, pome of whom were in conference today with Al bert Gibb, grand jury foreman, while they did not make known de tails of the discovery of faint smudges on the shirt, admitted that a report by experts on the finger print. is expected tomorrow. It is po.ssible that the tiny imprints left by fingers may be one of the most powerful bits of evidence to be pre sented before Ihe grand Jury. After the conference with Mr. Glbbs, Special Dep. Atty. Gen. Mott announced that the case would not go before the grand jury until next week. Tne special prosecutor, ac companied by Col. Swartzkopf, head of the state police, and Pros. Beek man of Somerset county, left Somer ville. where the conference was held, for Trenton. What turn in the con ference Jed them to abandon plans for returning to New Brunswick was not made known, but the sud den departure for the office of the attorney general lent weight to re ports prevalent among observers that Somerset county officials were opposed to immediate presentation of the cae to the grand Jury. Detectives working on the case are again turning their attention to Charlotte Mills, daughter of the slain choir singer, who has an nounced her intention of calling again upon Gov. Edward. Several of he detectives are of the opinion that the ?lrl is in possession of in formation which she has not yet divulged. Detective Mason expected to question her anew, but the ab sence of Mr. Mott caused a post ponement of his plans. PREMIER WOULD LIKE AMERICA IN LEAGUE LONDON, Nov. 9. (By A. P.)

COURT CONTINUES HERRIN MINE TRIAL TO NEXT MONDAY Judge Hartwell Overrules Mo tion to Quash All of Slay ing Charges. MARION, 111.. Nov. 9 Adjourn ment until Monday at 9 a. m. was taken in the first of the Herrin mas sacre trials today on order of Judge D. T. Hartwell. Necessity of remodeling the court room and the fact thut Saturdays is Armistice Day were given as reasons for the unexpected delay. Just before adjournment the de fense announced its readiness for trial. The state had previou.V.y de clared its willingness to proceed with selection of a Jury. 1 Judge Hartwell, in a length opin ion, overruled the miners' mo'Jon to quash all Indictments growing out of the mine wir. In which 22 non-union miners were slain after an attempt was made to operate the Leer trip mine at Herrin. "I am powerless to grant this mo tion," the Judge said. He held that the pecial grand Jury which return ed the indictments was legal. No misconduct of the prosecution or Jury had been ehown, he aid. The defense protested ettorneys selected by Brundage to assist In the probe. Claims that the re-election of Sheriff Mehin Thaxton by a 5,000 Republican majority indicates that not only Williamson county miners, but busrlncM and professional m?n as well approved the union's defen. of the indicted men. were ma1e to day by Frank Farrington, Illlnoos miners' president. Thaxton run 3,00 ahead of the rest of the Republican ticket. "Despite the fact that Atty. Gen. Brundage, himself a Republican, urged the citizens cf Willlam?on county to repudiate at the polls every Republican who could bo .sus pected of union sympathies, the voters have elected every candidate supported by the union," Farring ton asserted. It in significant that not only the miner?, but the business and profes sional elements voted for the miners' candidates as evidenced by the way In which Sheriff Thaxton ran ahearr of his ticket. "As soon as It became evident thot the Illinois Chamber of Commerce. Atty. Brundage and those who are attempting to ue Herrin as a text for antl-unionl-sm were intent upon defeating the Republican candidates in Williamson county, the miner rallied to the support of these men."
