By The United Press. Washington, June 5. Former Governor E. C. Stokes of Trenton, N.

spent $14,609.44 in his recent unsuccessful campaign for the Republican nomination for senator, he told a senatorial investigating committee today. Stokes ran second to P. Kean in the primary election last month. Kean's manager testified yesterday he spent almost $50,000 on Kean's campaign. Only $3,300 of the money spent by Stokes was furnished by himself, he said, the rest being contributed by friends.

The entire Stokes campaign fund was $16,355, part of which was not spent, Stokes said. He attacked Kean's campaign system, particularly in Atlantic county, where he said "excessive votes" indicated "machine methods." Enoch Johnson, Atlantic City politician, carried Atlantic county for Kean, Stokes said, although Senator Edge, who lives there, supported Stokes. "I will not make statements I cannot prove," he said. "There are rumors about large expenditures, but I will not give you rumors." Lowell Mellett, editor of the Washington Daily News, a Scripps-Howard newspaper, testified the Scripps-Howard newspapers paid $6,000 for the rights to publish the serial life stories of Governor Smith and Secretary Hoover. Senator Hefiin had urged the committee to call Mellett.

SLAYS RIVAL, GIRL Shell-Shocked Ex Service Man Sought in Killing. Chicago, June 5. Police today sought a 32-year-old war veteran as the third member in an "eternal triangle" who last night shot and killed his sweetheart and the man whom lie believed replaced him in the girl's affections. The man was known to police only as "Brownie. And was shell-shocked.

"Brownie" last night entered the home of Miss Elizabeth Ward and her sister, Ruth, and found Ruth entertaining Paul Schilling, aged 32. An argument followed. "Brownie" left suddenly. He returned later with a gun, shot Schilling and then turned the revolver on Ruth. The two victims died instantly.

Elizabeth Ward ran through the hall and escaped five shots fired at her. "Brownie" walked out of the flat, crashed plate glass windows in the door and disappeared. The mother of the two Ward girls was said to reside in Richmond, Va. 1 1 1 $. If.

ft By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS. Foreign News Editor, Scripps-Howard Newspapers. Washington, June 5. With the fall of the Chang Tso-Lin dictatorship and the Nationalists rise to power in China, a grave responsibility develops on the United States. A vast, new nation, bigger than the United States and with people, is a-borning.

About its cradle axe grouped powerful influences which would gladly strangle it in its Infancy. Others would stunt its growth, if they could, to Keep rt aocue and weak. U. S. ALMOST ALONE.

Almost alone among the great powers, -the United States sincerely desires a strong China. For almost alone we hasten to add lest we be accused of assuming a holier-than-though attitude in the matter we have nothing to lose and much to gain by helping her to be strong. If China is partitioned, we lose everything, for we would not accept an inch of Chinese territory. But if China grows we will profit directly as her purchasing power increases Put it on this lowest of basis, if you will, but China's best interests and our best interests. As soon as possible, then, we should recognize the new Nationalist regime, without, at the same time, leaping before we look.

In recent years Washington has not been at all squeamish in recognizing Pekin governments. Whether they fought their way to power, or bought their way, or tricked then-way in, once in, Washington, in common with the-other foreign nations, has quickly extended recognition. TROUBLE AHEAD. The reason for this, as given at Washington, was that it was convenient, if not necessary, to keep communications with China open, and recognition of the various Pekin governments afforded the means. With which reason few observers will quibble.

But, at the same time, i having recently swallowed many a camel now is hardly the tune to begin straining at a gnat. The nationalists, of course, are not supermen. They are not going to usher in the millennium. All the wrongs in China will not suddenly be Plenty of trouble, undoubtedly, is still ahead. Fundamentally, however, the Nationalist movement now under way is the most wholesome fact that unhappy country has seen in a thousand years or more and the United States should and must do everything it possibly can to keep the spark alive.

If it does not do so. no other great power will. Likely there will be more civil wars. Factions, doubtless, will battle factions. Regretable acts may be committed by extremists, for it takes all kinds of people to make a nation even a nation like ours.

PATIENCE A POLICY. But such things are humanly to be expected when 400,000,000 backward people fight their way out of darkness into light and so the foundation of our China policy should be patience. Prompt recognition would help immensely through increasing the prestige of those who have now brought all China, nominally, at least, under their sway the first time any government has done that since the fall of the monarchy 17 years ago. a POISON KILLS CO-ED Professor's Daughter in Love Tangle Succumbs After 19 Days. Chicago, June 5.

Miss Helen B. Owens, aged 23, daughter of Prof, and Mrs. Frederick Owens of Pennsylvania State college, died here last night from a slow poison she took 19 days ago. The girl, a junior in the University of Chicago, it was said, took the poison when her parents objected to her proposed marriage. The parents said they did not object to her marriage to F.

P. Mayer of Pittsburgh, but had advised her to wait until she had finished her studies. Blood transfusions were used, but she gradually weakened. Sectarianism and Parochialism Both To Be Taboo At Trinity Cathedral. Annual Flower Market To Be Bigger and Better In North Side Public Square.

Don't Forget That There Wni Be A Girl Show Equal To The Other Flowers. A Boarding House Story and A Little Propaganda For the Mistresses. By FRANK C. HARPER THOSE of us who heard Bishop Mann and Dean Kammerer at the Inauguration of Old Trinity as the cathedral of the Protestant Episcopal diocese on Sunday evening are still talking about the big broad spirit of both dean and bishop. What thev souzht to imnress unon the audience was that Trinity will continue, more than ever, ii possible, to stand, not as the mere gathering place of a sect, but as a symbol of the sympathy and understanding which should bind together all the sects.

BISHOP MANN, after giving to the Roman Catholic missionary explorers and the early Presbyterian and Lutheran preachers and Methodist circuit riders, most of the credit for laying the religious foundations of Pittsburgh, dwelt upon the intermediary functions of the Protestant Episcopal church, which may be likened to a bridge. He referred with marked satisfaction to the expressions of good win which had come from so many other branches of Christianity and to the presence of many representatives of their clergy at the inauguration service. Dean Kammerer spoke in the same strain, saying that the spirit of Old Trinity as a cathedral church would continue to be spirit which abhorred the narrowness of mere parochialism and mere sectarianism. Trinity cathedral would always, he hoped, be a house of prayer for all people. HERE'S the flower show Under the able general chairmanship of Miss Marie Der-mitt scores no, hundreds of clever! women and girls are doing their bit to make it a great success, and- they 1 cannot fail.

The show or market (as it is officially called) has suffered a little in former years from cramped quarters. Inspiring as it was, it didn't get a square chance in narrow William Penn way. This year it is being given in the old Allegheny City Hall square, on the North Side. That enables it to spread out and disport itself to immeasurably greater advantage. THE market will be open for business tomorrow morning, provided weather is favorable, and will continue until 6 p.

m. Luncheon will be served from 11 to 3. In the evening there will be a fete, opening at 8 and continuing until 11:30. The attractive booths which were being set up in the square today were a promise of the artistic character of the market. Not only will all manner of flow ers and plants be sold, but all other paraphernalia of porch or garden.

Thousands of women can hardly wait until tomorrow comes, and if business men don't care much for flowers or porch and garden accessories, they certainly do always like to look at pretty girls, and there will be pretty girls galore at the flower market. EVERYBODY has heard the story of the New England boarding house keeper who not only fed her boarders the proverbial prunes butwhen spring came and people began to take tonics put up this warning sign in the dining room: "All boarders who artificially stimulate their appetites will be charged extra." The spring this year has been so backward, and so many people have been taking tonics to guard against the epidemic of colds, that IH wager boarding house mistresses up in thrifty New England have been more hawk-eyed than usual in detecting symptoms of artificial stimulation of appetite at their tables. zyP COURSE, boarding houses in I 1 Pennsylvania, especially in western Pennsylvania, are conducted on a more generous pattern. We are not as frugal in this great manufacturing region as they are in New England with its declining agriculture and its she-towns. As to the eastern part of our state, I am not so certain.

A reputation for exceeding thrift, which is another word for frugality, has long followed the Pennsylvania Dutch, justly or not. In western Pennsylvania, at any rate, boarding rates are uniform. with tonic or without. THE hard-working women who keep boarding houses must not think from the foregoing that I am against them. Life is no more a bed of roses for them than for their boarders.

And when it comes down to the fine point, most people do eat too much, after all or at least, they jeat too much food of the non-nutritive kind. I have good medical authority for the statement that careful observation of the inhabitants of the Punjab shows that all digestive diseases, such as peptic ulcer, appendicitis, diseases of the liver and gall bladder, and all cancers are almost unknown among those who live on their ancestral diet of fruits of their i gardens, fields and forests, with dairy products and very little meat, entirely excluding highly milled flour as well as canned fruits, vegetables, meats and fish. ARE DEFEATED IN COMMITTEE Strength of Opposition Fails in Effort to Delay Contests. kv. By RALPH H.

TURNER, United Press Staff Writer. Kansas City, Mo, June 5. Fw of Herbert Hoover in the Republican national committee won a test of strength today when they defeated a motion to defer until tomorrow a contest between two deletinr from Louisiana. One delegation, headed bv Emil Kuntz, national committeeman from jbouisiana, ana iavorable to Hoover. urged immediate consideration of the contest.

But In view of the temporary absence of the opposing group headed by Walter L. Cohen. Negro comptroller of customs at New Orleans, the anti-Hoover group in- troduced a motion asking postpone- ment 01 tne earing until tomorrow. The vote showed forces lined un along pro and anti-Hoover lines. On the roll call the motion was defeated 47 to 39.

Shortly after the vote the Cohen delegation arrived and the hearing of the contest began. WHAT WILL, MELLON DO? "When will Mellon get here and what will he do?" is a question heard everywhere. Politicians are about ready to agree that Mellon and Pennsylvania may decide the whole issue. 'Another is the influence of the farm element. Clarence Buck, man ager for Lowden, who can add to 300 now in counting votes for his candidate, believes growing sentiment from the agricultural belt will enhance that number on the floor of the convention Those two elements the Pennsylvania vote and the farm influence and one more important factor, the "draft CooUdge" movement were the principal variants of the situation which the increasing ahost of political leaders discussed today.

FARM REVOLT WANES Nebraska Governor Says "Big Parade" Will Fail. Bv The United Press. Lincoln, June 5. The hopes of middle-western farmers for the "farm revolt" march upon the national Republican convention at Kansas City suffered considerably today with the announcement by Governor Adam McMullen that he did not expect the march to materialize. Governor McMullen, who was credited with first proposing the mass movement of farmers to the national convention to protest the veto of the McNary-Haugen farm relief bill, said political writers had made the.

movement appear "ridiculous and clownish." "The publicity given the proposed move carried a false impression of my Ideas to the public," McMullen said. "I do not expect a great caravan of farmers to go to the convention." BLAST KILLS TV0 Ohio Woman and Child Die in Gas Explosion in Home. Special to The Pittsburgh Press. Steuben ville, June 5. Mrs.

Carl Hill, aged 22, and her daughter, Josephine, aged 19 months, died at the Ohio Valley hospital early today from bums they received in a gas explosion at 7 p. m. yesterday while visiting at the W. H. Kel-meyer home in Center Chapel, near here.

June 5. Bishop William A. Guerry of the Episcopal diocese of southern South Carolina was seriously wounded by a retired clergyman of his church today. Rev. James A.

Woodward, aged 66, formerly of Brunswick, who fired the shot, shot himself through the head immediately afterward, according to police records, and died later. Physicians said Bishop Guerry's condition was serious but that he had a chance to live. The bullet entered Bishop Guerry's chest. Miss Henrietta Jervey, his secretary, was in an ante-room when the shooting occurred. Miss Jervey said Rev.

Woodward made an appointment with Bishop Guerry by telephone early in the day. On his arrival, the bishop called her aside and saidf "I am afraid of this man. Do not leave the ante-room." Woodward was dead when Miss Jervey reached the bishop's office. Nab Six at "Crime School." Six Negroes were arrested in a detective raid on an alleged "crime school," in Fullerton yesterday.

Allen told detectives he had been brought from Steuben-ville to attend the school. By PAUL R. MAIAON, United Press Staff Writer. Washington, June 5. Governor Alfred E.

Smith will go into the Houston convention accredited with about 600 first ballot votes. He needs 734 for the nomination. Only a few of the Democrats here believe he will fail to get the necessary two-thirds majority. These few claim his delegate strength has been greatly overestimated. They say after the early balloting many of his delegates will drift to other candidates; that Smith's bloc is not hardy enough -to withstand the blow of a failure to get the nomination quickly and that his managers have been misled into believing he has a number of delegates who will really vote for someone else.

SOME FOES CONVINCED. A number of Democratic leaders who are personally opposed to Smith are convinced, however, that he is to be nominated. For the first time since 1916 they see a chance to win. They see a possibility of getting back their state patronage, of having their political associates and friends i appointed judges, district attorneys and postmasters. They figure that the bettered side of their bread perhaps may be distasteful but might be more healthful.

They are therefore unwilling to participate in a vigorous contest which would be necessary to prevent Smith's nomination. Only two groups are standing out against Smith, one led by friends of Senator Reed of Missouri and the other connected with the Simmons-Heflin activities. Reed's friends have become embittered by developments during the campaign. They refuse to concede Smith the nomination and personally believe they have not been treated right in the campaign. They say they will go into the convention to cast their ballots for Reed to the end.

WORKING FOR HULL. The Simmons-Heflin group has now started working for the nomination of Cordell Hull, representative from Tennessee. Their group is entirely distinct from Reed's. Hull has lined up a native son delegation of 24 in his home state and Senator Simmons is hoping to give him a majority of the 24 North Carolina delegates who are to be selected June 12. There is a third group built around the un instructed delegation in Texas, which the Simmons-Heflin group is hoping to line up for HulL Reed's friends say his vote will go over 100 votes on the first ballot, He has Missouri's instructed 36 and about 30 known un instructed delegates in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Utah and West Virginia- There are seven prominent native son candidates in the race, Ritchie of Maryland, Pomerene of Ohio, Ayers of Kansas, Woolen of Indiana, Hitchcock of Nebraska, George of Georgia and Hull.

Smith is expected to gt Ritchie's 16 delegates any time he wants them. CLAIM OHIO VOTES. His managers also claim a majority of Pomerene's 48 from Ohio. Hitchcock's friends say there are eight Smith delegates and one for Reed among his 16. Ayer's 20 are unknown quantities.

Smith leaders do not look for help there. They do believe the Indiana Woolen dele gation could furnish some votes for them in a pinch. They concede that George's 28 from Georgia are lost to them. The uninstructed and doubtful bloc now amounts to about 134, including the 40 from Texas and 24 from Alabama. Smith leaders do not expect any of the Texas or Alabama votes.

They do expect half of the uninstructed 20 from Oklahoma and more than half of the 18 from Arkansas. With these figures they can count nearly 700 votes for Smith- They do not seem to be worrying about the last 34. Only one ever obtained a majority of the votes in a Democratic convention and failed to get two-thirds. The late Champ Clark received a few more than a majority at Baltimore in 1912 and was beaten by Woodrow Wilson. WATCH KANSAS CITY Dry Agents' Army Mobilize for Convention.

Special to The Pittsburgh Press. Wasnineton. June 5. Assistant Secretary of Treasury Lowman announced today the prohibition conditions in Kansas City are "satisfactory" for the Republican national convention which will open next week.

Lowman said virtually all dry agents in the Arkansas-Missouri district had been concentrated around Kansas City and that about 60 officers of the government's Mobile dry squad of 120 trained sleuths had been sent to the Republican convention city. "We ari not going after hip pocket toters or persons who have liquor in their rooms, but we will not stand for speakeasies, blind tigers or wholesale bootlegging." ALLEGE SHORTAGE IN GREEN'S BOOKS Investigators Say Sharon Man's Treas-ary Accounts Defaulted. Special to The Pittsburgh Press. Sharon.

Moscow, June 5. A Murmansk fishing trawler radioed today that it had picked up a message from ObdoTsk, saying that the radio station there had picked up an message from the lost polar dirigible Italia, in Franz Josef Land. There was no confirmation of the message. Several reports wholly unverified have been received, the most hopeful of which came from a radio station at Hemsoe, Denmark, near Hernosland, which advised receipt of a message in French Monday afternoon that read: "Dirigible Kalia, S. O.

we have received information you are on island Franz Josef Land." The message indicated the sending station had been in communication with the Italia and it was believed that one of the Russian ice breakers sent out by the soviet government, has been the sending station. The Hemsoe station also reported they had heard a short wave instrument at a wave length of between 35 and 37 meters. The message was preceded by the call signal. "Italia." This was transmitted repeatedly for several minutes and finally there came the message, "we received information you on Franz Josef Land." Another report was from Luleaa, Sweden, saying that the Malmoer-gets radio station at 11 p. m.

Monday obtained a connection with a Russian amateur giving the call "15 RA." The Russian amateur, the report said, advised he had heard signals from the Italia and had obtained a connection with the airship but the connection had been disrupted before any position could be learned.
