New York. May Sit is authorita-
lively stated that the Baltimore and
Ohio intends to build about 40 miles of
road in Ohio to secure to the system an
Independent line from Wheeling TO
Clevelanfs This offers an explanation
for the indifference shown by Baltimore
and Ohio people in regard to control of
the Wheeling and Lake Erie. The plan
is to build from Valley Junction, the
southern terminal of the Cleveland Ter
minal and Valley, to st. Clairsville,
where branch extends from the Trans
Ohio division.
There appears to be no reason TO
doubt that the Baltimore and Ohio is
10 have absolute control of the Pitts
burg and Western. This has been made
evident by recent developments, par
ticularly the petition for permission 10
issue new stocks and bonds and take
up all Indebtedness, the presentation
of which. it is understood, contem
plated the Pittsburg and Western, as
one of the roads TO be brought into the
combination, which will finally make
the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern
a part of the Baltimore and Ohio sys-
tenn. In addition to this is the work
of Improvement in progress on the
Wheeling division, the double tracking
of the line west of Bellaire, Ohio, and
plans for Wheeling terminals, which
suggests that, while controlling the
Pittsburg and Western the Baltimore
and Ohio may operate independently
of it on heavy traffic west of Pittsburg.
The statement has been made by an
authority that the Baltimore and Ohio
interests have no intention of carrying
out the reorganization plan without
taking the Pittsburg and Western into
account, and the opportunity for doing
this is presented at this time in a more
desirable manner than some months
ago

Washington, May S.-s'The President
is COMMUNICATIVE of the army and
my superior. He has approved the
findings of the Wade court of inquiry.
Therefore, | have no comment to make.
1t would be an unsoldiery act were

With these words Gen Miles replied
to Star reporter who saw him for a
moment to-day with regard to the
probable action he would take in view
of the adverse report of the court.

President?"
Il have nothing to say. no sir" re-
piled the General.
'Will you inspire Congressional in
vestigation?"

subject"
do you believe Congress will rectify
the matter?"
Il do not know what Congress will
do, nor have | any means of knowing
i'm advance what verdict the result Of
an investigation might develop. | have
no comment, criticism or statement TO
make in this matter and you may
make it as certain that any alleged in
terviews or intimations to the contrary

wholly and unqualifiedly false.

COMMENT SHUT OFF.
No Room For Army Officers to Criticise the
Beef Boards Report.

Washington, May S.-A very close
friend of Gen. Miles, and an officer OF
the army, when asked if there was any
thing to say or do in regard to the re-
port of the beef board, replied: There
is nothing for him to say or do. The
report has been approved by the Presi-
dent and the President is the COM
mander-in-chief of the army. Criti-
cism Of the report or any other action
would be violation of military duty"
Inquiry was made as to the status
of officers criticised and what course
they might pursue, and it was stated
that as a military legal proposition
it was impossible for any action to be
taken by any of the officers aggriev-
ed. They might demand an inquiry,
but this being a court Of inquiry which
recommended that no further action be
taken, this being approved by the Pres
ident, precluded any further inquiry.
Cen Eagan, who is specified in the re-
port, is not likely to ask for any further
investigation. Lieut. Col Maus. of
Gen. Miles staff, the other officer criti-
cised, feels it keenly. His friends say
he was among the witnesses whom
Gen. Miles asked to be called, and, was
not called by the court.

JOAN OF ARC.
The Anniversary of the Deliverance
of Orleans Fittingly Celebrated
Archbishop Ireland the Orator.

J Orleans, May S.-The annual cele-
bration of the deliverance of Orleans
by Joan of Are was held here to-day
with the customary ceremonies. A sa-
lutte of q guns was fired at sunrise, and
all the bells in the city were rung. AT
10 o'clock the municipal and other bod
les went to the cathedral. which was
decked with flowers and flags as is the
custom ON grand occasions. The Nave
was festooned with drapery and flags.
There was an enormous crush of people
seeking admission to the cathedral. A
cantata was rendered by five hundred
performers.
Among those present was descend
ant of Joan of Arc, an artillery captain
named Delagatto, who is stationed at
Versailles. Archbishop Ireland, the or
ator of the occasion, spoke in French.
In beginning his address, Archbishop
Ireland said that if there were any sur
prise that a stranger should be the
orator on such an occasion as this. it
must be remembered that Joan of Are
not only belonged to France, but to
the human race generally. After a
eulogy of Joan of Arc, Archbishop Ire
land said that he was happy to seize
the occasion to tell of his unspeakabe
affection of France, which was the land
of his youth and the school of his soul.
After the Grafton a cortege preceded
to the site of the old fort of Tournelles,
which was captured by Joan of Arc on
Nav 8, 1929. The procession included
officials of the department and city. the
fire brigade and many civic societies.
The route along which the procession
passed was lined with troops. After
wards the cortege returned to the ca
thedral. where a TIE Deum was sung.
Tonight there were fireworks and a
torchIight procession.

IMPORTANT STAGE
Reached In the Riiualistic Controversy in
The Church of England

Reached In the Xii ualistic Controversy in
The Church of England
London, May S.-An important stage
IN the ritualistic controversy opened
to-day when the Right Hon. and Most
Rev. Frederick Temple, Archbishop of
Canterbury and primary of all Eng
land, the Right Hon. and Most Rev.
William Dalrymple Maclagan. Arch
bishop of York, sitting as a self-consti-
tuted tribunal, began a hearing of the
charges against the Rev. Henry West
ell, vicar OF ST. Cuthberts, Philbeach
Gardens, of ceremonial use of incense
and lights, and the Rev. Edward Ram.
vicar OF the Church of st. John Tim
berhill, Norwich, on the charge of
ceremonial use of incense. Messrs
Westall and Ram will have the assist
ance in the ecclesiastical trial of a
number of experts on the question of
ritual, including the Rev. r. R. Perci-
val, rector of the Church of the Evan
gellsts, in Philadelphia. The decision
or the archbishops will not be binding
except as to the conscience. upon any
one, nor will it be enforcible, but. NAT
uraliy, it will have immense moral
weight.
The chief purpose of this archipisco-
pal inquiry is to avoid reference to the
secular courts.
A large assemblage of bishops and
well known clergymen were present in
the historic guard room of Lambeth
Pa!aee, when the Archbishop of Cam
terbury opened the proceedings with
an explanation of the nature of the
nearing. Arguments of counsel on both
sides followed

Cumberland, Nd, May S.-This city
is in a wild state of excitement to-
night.
Late this afternoon on the outskirts
of the city William Parish, negro,
attempted to assault Mrs. Barbara
Mes, aged so, but the woman managed
to escape after a heroic scuff1e.
John Myers aged 80, living nearby,
heard of the attempted assault and
went to his home, where ne loaded a
double barrelled shot gun with heavy
buck-shot and started after the negro,
when his attention was attracted by
screams coming from mountain OPP
posite.
lie looked and saw the negro as
saulting Mrs. Catherine Haier, aged
about 20.
Myers at once started TO her rescue,
and as he neared the scene yelled at
the fiend to desist.
AT this the negro started to run,
when Myers opened fire and the as
sailant fell dead, being completely rid
died with bullets.
Myers then sat down near his victim
and ordered man to go after the
sheriff, to whom he surrendered and
was placed in Jail.
After trying to assault the Mes wo-
man, Parish fled to the mountain,
where it happened old Mrs. Haier was
wandering about in search of her COW.
Thinking he had the woman at his
mercy, the negro seized her by the
neck and threw her violently to the
ground. While trying to accomplish
his purpose he was surprised by My
ers.
The Haier woman was badly injured,
her back being black and blue, the re-
suit of being thrown on the stones.
She is in a precarious condition and
| may die from the shock.
When the dead mans body was
taken to an undertaking establishment
his shoes were found to be filled with
blood and his body pierced through and
through in dozen places.
( The negroes condemn the shooting,
while the white people say it was justi-
fable and commend Myers for the act.
A jury of inquest, after hearing tes-
timony returned a verdict of justifable
homicide, after three hours delibera-
ton.
The negroes held large meeting to-
night, and trouble is feared. Myers
will be kept in Jail until morning, and
his home will be guarded.
