NEW YORK, May 2s.-The World says
that the Rev. II. Greenfield Schorr as
sistant pastor of st. Pauls Church Balti-
more, before he killed himself last Sunday
morning, mailed to that paper all the let
ters he had received during the previous
week from Mrs. Margaret NJ Smith, her
photograph, and a hastily written letter in
which he says that he is about to commit
suicide
In her letters Mrs. Smith coniesses her
love for the pastor, but declines TO enter
into secret engagement. DR.. Schor
finally became convinced that Mrs. Smith
would not marry him, and on Saturday
May %, wrote the following letter TO the
editor Of the World.
81 am a desperate man, because Mrs
Margaret NJ. Smith, OF 1919 \. Charles
street, has deceived me. She became en-
gagged to me, and when ! objected TO GER
tain liberties she took with men not gen
tlemen, she was mad and said she was I'M
dependent OF me. She is miserable,
deceptive woman. She treated Rev. Mr..
Pond, of Philadelphia, in the same way
indeed, claiming that she loved me, she
persuaded me TO write the letter OF reiec-
tion to him. lie considered himself as her
engaged lover for five years, and yet in all
that time in Westminster, Md, and in
Baltimore, Md, she has been an engaged
woman. She will talk about the untruth
told Mr.. J. II. Flagler OF her in the pres
ence of @. W. Benedict, but she made me
promise | would lie TO Mr. Benedict about
Mr.. Flagler's relation 10 me, so che could
get Benedict in her power Iexpect. Like
fool did. / am going to commit sui
eide. An old mother, dear old father
and loving sister remain to defend my
character, which has always been honest
for their sakes."

GUESSES AT WAR.
Alarmis1s Fear Trouble From the Behriug
Sea ComnlIcationa

Alarmisls Fear Trouble From the Behring
Sea Complications.
WASHINGTON, May 2s.-The sending
of the English flagship Swiftsure and the
Amphion TO Sitka, with orders to cruise
in Behring Sea, has caused quite stir in
official circles here.
The Treasury Department has time and
again called the attention of the Govern
ment to the fact that ships flying the En-
glish flag are engaged in illicit sealing in
Behripg Sea. In most cases these vessels
are we'll armed, and our revenue cutters,
which carry only howitzers, are no match
for them.
The Government has decided that its
interests in Alaska shall be protected.
The United States steamer Adams, which
was under sailing orders for Honolulu, ex-
pected to leave on Tuesday, but a tele-
gram has been sent to the commandapt of
the Mare Island Navy Yard to detain her
She will 90 North in company with the
Iroquois, and both vessels will leave early
in the week for Sitka.
The State Department has decided that
Behring Sea is closed sea, and intends to
assert dominion over the whole North Pa
cifc within the limit defined by our treaty
with Russia. What constitutes the wa
ters Of Alaska has long been a complicated
question, and if, as appears, the English
Government is sending war ships to pro-
tect Canadian vessels engaged in taking
seals north of the Aleutian Islands, our
Government will be confronted with an
international question of the gravest inn
Dortance. The revenue cutters, Rush and
Bear, aud the war ships Thetis, Adams
and IroquOis will be on hand to enforce
the law o the country as defined by the
Treasury Department so far as depreda-
ton of the seal fishing is concerned.
Our government takes the ground that
when we acquired Alaska by purchase, in
1867, we also acquired all of it's vested
rights, one of which was Behring Ssa.
This question was settled in 1929, when
| England attempted the same tactics she is
now engaged in. Ruesia showed fight, and
sent large fleet to these waters to uphold
her position. The question was finally
settled by arbitration against England.
Secretary Blaine is determined in this
matter. He maintains that we have ex-
elusive dominion over all that portion OF
the Pacific Ocean known as Behring Sea,
excepting such as lies east OF the treaty
line, bordering on the Siberian coast. The
matter has been discussed in Cabinet, and
the determination OF the Administration is
to enforce all our rights in the matter. II
England persists in sending ships Of wal
to protect the Canadian vessels in taking
these young seal, this Government will
take vigorous measures to stOpit.
The first conflict of authority within this
immense area of water claimed and owned
by the United States may mean war. 1t il
believed that England, seeing that this
Government is determined to enforce itf
rights, even ifrecourse to force is necessary,
will withdraw aud submit the question ia

Club, and Sammy Nichol WAS signed in his
stead, and will hereafter manage and play

himself to be perfect gentleman, and one
whom it is pleasure to meet, but he in

since, disabling him from playing, and for
this and other reasons he decided to resign
his position. Wheeling, under the small
salary limit, is compelled to have a mana
ger who can play in the team, ard Sam
Nichol will make strong acquisition to
the club. He will be seen in his familiar
field in this afternoons game, aud no
doubt his many friends will give him
a great send-of.

listless and devoid of any brilliant work,
except a play made by thinner who ran in

the finest catches ever seen on the grounds.
He put the ball to Jimmy Green and made
neat double play.
Zecher's short stop work was excellent
and Monroe pitched one Of his old-time

pound out more than three singles.
