Schmidt Confesses Desire for Electric Chair in New Jersey Murders
Hans Schmidt, serving for Anna Mueller’s murder, told reporters he would admit to other killings if it helped his case, claiming he could not prove the crimes but would confess if it freed another prisoner. He denied involvement with the Muret case and downplayed ties to the O Malley girl. Police pursue links to a 1910 Trenton crime while awaiting solid evidence.

Wilson Aims to Accelerate Currency Reform Action
President Wilson pushes to speed currency reform through the Senate amid sparse hearings and a likely lengthy debate in committee. With the House backing, prospects for passage before next session are dim, as Senate quorums lag and only a fraction of witnesses have testified. Wilson plans conferring with insurgent Democrats to speed work while Republicans may block the measure. House leaders seek an extended recess to sustain Democratic control during the currency debate. King Constantine of Greece reportedly arrives in Paris for a dinner with President Poincare amid Paris coverage.
