she killed her mother last January
In a quarrel over the daughter's
conduct, observed her seventeenth

attorneys had prepared to produce
testimony in support of their con

The Jury which will pass upon
her sanity was sworn in last
night after comparatively brief
proceedings. It Is composed of 3
women and 9 men. When the pro

certainty of developments which
may arise today as the result of

statement from the young defend
ant in which she said she was sane
and wanted to plead guilty of a
charge of having killed her moth
er, with full realization of the ser

The defense was Just as emphat

of vague reports that their client
had repudiated her attorneys and
censured them for their alleged
failure to consult her before de-
mandlng her trial on a charge of :

NEW YORK, April 1. News
that the Dodge Brothers Automo
bile company of Detroit has buen
acquired by a syndicate headed
by the banking firm of Dillon.
Read and company of New York
is prominently published here to
day as one of the most Important
financial transactions In the his
tory of the automobile Industry.
The aale Is said to have involved
more than $100,000,000. practic
ally in cash. . .
Representatives of the banking
firm declined either to affirm or
deny the sale and Clarence Dillon
declared, that, while final nego
tlatlona had not been completed,
some announcement relative to
the deal would be made within a
day or two. '
In financial clrclea here It was
declared that Bale consummated
a financial battle between Dillon,
Read & Company and the house
of J. P. Morgan & Company, re
presenting the General Motors
corporation, to gain control of
the Dodge Brother's property. It
was also believed that the sale
was preparatory to a $600,000,
000 merger of the Dodge prop
erty, the Packard Motor company
and the Hudson Motor company
and the Brlgg. Body corporation.
Confirmation for this also waa
lacking. ,
Sale of the Dodge Brothers
company marks an eventful step
in tne romantic history of the
concern, which began under the
guidance of John and Horace
Dodge, who had been stockholders
in the Ford Motor company until
they went Into business for them
selves. The present firm waa started
In 1914, with a capitalization of
