Mrs. Ed Anderson Succumbs Sunday Riles ('onducted For Resi dent Of WilkesboiD Kmile - .At Pishing; Creek Eight Children Burn To Death In Farm House Alexis, Nov. 13.—Two flame- blackened chimneys, the cast- ron frame of a sewing machine, and several iron beds were all that remained this afternoon of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hu hert Cunningham, from whose ruins this morning they helped to drag the charred bodies of their eight children, who had perished in its flames. Seven of the children were sleepng in a single downstairs room when the flames struck the two-story dwelling this morning at 1:15 o'clock. .Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham and their youngest child. Ruth, were asleep in an adjoining room at the rear. A- roused by the heat, the crackling flames and smoke they rushed outside, hoping to he able to awaken the other members of the family. They left the one-year-old baby in bed. The entire structure was in flames. Driven back time after time, the mother and fath er finally reached a window of the room in which the other sev en were sleeping. The father broke it. Flames leaping out of the window burned his face and hands. The parents rushed back to their bedroom in hope of sav ing the youngest child, but the room was a mass of flames. After daybreak, with a few neighbors, they helped to remove the'r children from the ruins. From the front room the bodies of Robert, 19, Thomas, l.l. Nel lie, 12, Grace. 10, Louise, 7, Juanita, ■). and Tack, 2, were taken. -JW^sliIngton, Nwi'^12.—Attor neys ior Bruno Rlclukrd manh.' branded his New ’?

Battling to escape the electric chair, the’ former German ma chine-gunner charged deprivation of constitutional rights at the celebrated Flemington trial. Whether the nine justices of the land’s highest tribunal will review the world-famous case may be announced December 23, Just In time to give the present occupant of the Jersey “death house” a welcome or un wanted Christmas present. Hauptmann was. ,;.,cpnvl^ted by unanimous vote of 12 jurprs. Later, the 13 judges,,, of ^ew Jersey’s court of errors apd ^ap- peals—the highest 8tate„ tribun al—unanimously affirmed the verdict. In asking the Supreme court to pass on the conviction, and, if possible, to grant a new trial, Hauptmann’s attorneys contend ed in a 32-page petition that "an hysterical mob spirit’’ prevailed at Flemington and that the jury was presented with “a picture of a circus” which made a “mock ery of justice.” “The dally presence of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh at the trial,” the petition added, “un duly influenced the jury to view him as the real prosecutor and constantly presented to the jury the picture of a bereaved father for whose sorrow the world demanded a sacrifice.” Justice Thomas W. Trenchard, in his charge to the jury, was said to have “portrayed emphatic approval of the state’s theories and witnesses and thereby im paired a free and unbiased ver dict.’’ Attorney General David T. Wil- entz was accused of “appeals to prejudice by inflammatory argu ment” and with having “bullied” Hauptmann and other witnesses on cross-examinations. These arguments were advanc ed unsuccessfully before the court of errors and appeals.
