COURT CENSURES OFFICERS
Recommends COurt-MartiaI for some
of Those Implicated in
Venice Trouble,

WASHINGTON, June THE Navy de-
partment this morning gave out the follow
ing statement concerning the court Of in
quiry which investigated the case Of the
American officers arrested at Venice:
The court of inquiry recommends trial
by court-martial of Lieutenant John s.
Doddridge, U. s. N; Captain Robert F.
Wynne, U. S. M. c., and Assistant Surgeon
Robert F. Ledbetter, u. s.. N, on the
charge of unbecoming behavior in public,
and that no further action be taken in the
case of Naval Cadet James c. Kress, u.
s. N, and Private Wilfred Langley, u. S.
NJ. G. Admiral C~rowninshield has disap-
proved the opinion and recommendation Of
the court of inquiry, where 1t is adverse to
the officers, on the ground that the evil
dence is not sufficient.
There will be no further proceedings IN
this case, according to the present intention
Of the officials. The grounds upon which
Admiral Crowninshield ~disapprOved the
finding, namely, the insuficiency of evil
dence, would not, it is believed, give any
cause for offense to the Italian government.
The admiral does not find that the italian
court erred, but he does find that, situated
as the Chicago is, 1t is not possible to Sc
cure the evidence which would justify the
assembling of a court-martial.

BODY HEAT
Reduced 20 Degrees in Summer.


Never eat heavy carbonaceous foods for
the morning meal, for these foods should
follow and not precede hard work.
The best morning foundation is Grape
Nuts and cream, a little fruit, a cup OF
Postum Food Coffee and possibly a couple
OF eggs prepared to suit the taste-this
breakfast is sufficient to satisfy the hard
est worker, either OF brain or muscle. until
the MONDAY meal.
Particularly is this true at the present
season Of the yeat, when meat and other
fatty foods increase the internal heat OF
the body and make the summer day still
more disagreeable.
Grape-Nuts come to you from the gro
Ger ready to serve, having been fully cooked
at the factory by food experts. n this
saving in time and e~xertion is appreciated
by the housewife as well as the economy,
for being a concentrated food, four teaspoon
fuls Is SUFFICIENT for the cereal part Of a
meal for one person and costs only / cent.
A booklet OF excellent recipes is found
In each package Of Grape-Nuts from which
many easy and delicious warm weather
dishes can be made for luncheon and sup
per that are not only nutritious, but pleas
ing TO the palate.
A trial OF the above selection OF food
for ten days will prove to anyone that
health and vigor, an active mind and a
keen enjoyment Of the pleasures OF sum
mer will take the place OF poor digestion,
a dull brain and that heavy draggy feel
ing caused by improper food during the
hot weather.

LOSS OF LIFE INEXCUSABLE
Tremendous Mortality at St. Pierre No.
Justifable, Says American Scientist,
WOULD PROVIDE MEANS OF WARNING
Professors Hill and Russell Think
Pelee Will SHOULDER for n Time
and Then BE Quiet for
Many Years.

NEW YORK, June 7.-Captain Barry Of
the cruiser Dixie. Just returned from bear
ing supplies to the volcano victims in the
West Indies, said regarding conditions In
the Islands:
Conditions are not as bad in Martinique
as in st. Vincent, because in Martinique
the people are fairly well supplied. with
ture eruptions. Only a small area of
twelve square miles has been devastated,
over a third Of the island. Plantations,
and the means OF subsistence has been
sands have been left in need Of some kline
of support.
OF the scientific results OF the Dixie's ex-
petition, Prof. l.. g. Russell OF the Uni
Versity Of Michigan said:
The overheated rock. resting against the

mountain open.
Prof. Hill. who Investigated the outbreak
for the government. said:
Months VII be required for the final
volcanic matter which we have collected
must be cut into sections and analysed
pSiore we can give extended opinions for
Scientific observatorIea.
rTot. hlil advocates the establishment OF
scientific observstories in the Caribbean
district for the detection Of the imminence
Of volcanic eruptions, so that human life
may be safe-a scientific institution
economically founded and maintained.
II think Pelee will smoke and remain
active for months said President Russell.
1T probably will be a case OF Vesuvius
again. ! hardly think Pelee will shoulder
and blow up In one gigantic explosion. /
believe 1t will quiet down and gradually die

and tropical yerdure will grow where there
Ia now nothing but black. gray ash. He
continued:
The people will build new villages and
towns at It's foot and again hold their
holiday picaics on its side and Pelee will
remain quiet for probably nifty or sixty
years. There should be in every volcano
an Instrument which records the tremors
of the earth.
Il was operated by the Chinese CEN
turtles ago. The instrument would give
the populace ample warning. The seismo-
graph at Vesuvius for thirty-hva years has
done satisfactory and valuable work.
No Excuse for Loss of Life.
There u absolutely no excuse for such
tremendous loss OF life as occurred at st.

COLLISION INJURIES MANY
Motor Car Crashes Into Engine and
Two Persons Are Fatally
Hurt.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, JUNE Twenty-Five
persons were today injured, two Of them
fatally, in a collision between a car of the
Clayton branch Of the Suburban Electric
line and engine No. 265 Of the Missouri
Pacific at the surface crossing at Brent
wood, st. Louis county.
The two men fatally injured are:
WILLIAM LAYZEN, motorman of the
electric car.
GEORGE GIBBONS, a laborer, who shared
the front platform with Layzen when the
collision occurred.
The fireman and engineer of the railroad
train were both injured and removed to
the Missouri Pacific hospital for treatment,
Almost everyone of those in the car was
cut by fly ing glass or thrown against a
door, window or seat in such a manner as
to sustain painful injuries. The injuries
of a majority of the passengers were
slight, however, and they hastily set about
to rescue the less fortunate.
There were no physicians at hand when
the collision occurred and 1t was twenty
minutes, passengers say, before the in
jured received medical attention. A ma
jority of the victims were able to go in
search Of doctors themselves. Residents
Of Brentwood carried the others to con-
NSnlent HOUSES OF placed tnem on neigh
boring lawns until physicians arrived.
Inability to control the electric car,
which ran into and derailed the engine,
seems to have been the cause OF the accI-
dent.
List of Injured.

tanned, is as follows:

south American City Ruined.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-Another city
in Central America has suffered almost
complete destruction and hundreds Of its
inhabitants have been killed by volcanic
eruptions. '-
The steamer Palena, which arrived today
from southern ports, brings the news that
the town Of Retalbulen, situated at the
foot Of Mount Tacoma, in Guatemala, has
been buried under q mass of lava, stones
and ashes thrown from the volcanic crater
and probably 1000 Of its people have per-
ished.
The volcano is about twenty-five miles
from Champanico, and near the town OF
Tapachulo. which, 1t is believed, also suf-
fered severely. The eruption occurred sew
eral days before Palena arrived at Cham
psnico. The vessels officers were Informed
by the agent OF the Pacific Steam Naviga-
tion company at that place that the vol
cano had shown signs Of the impending
eruption for several days previous to the
outbreak. In fact, Mount Tacoma had been
restless ever since the great earthquake of
April IS, which destroyed the city Of Quez-
altenango. For weeks q black pail of
smoke hung over its summit, and the
glare from the crater frequently illumi-
mated the sky.
Escape F~riEhtfuI Deaths.
Many OF the inhabitants Of Retalbulen
ned from their homes to places Of safety
and these escaped ~frightful deaths. When
the eruption at last broke forth in its full
fury showers Of lava. ashes and stones
were elected and covered the country for
miles around. The Bay Of C~hampanico
was a mass Of floating pumice and ashes.
No details were obtainable by the officers
Of Palena, but the loss of life was esti-
mated at not less than 1000.
The same steamer brought a letter to
Baltour, Guthrie & Co., agents of the Pa
Coast Steamship company. from G. NJ.
Melville, their agent in Guatemala, con-
frming the report OF the eruption. He also
stated that since the earthquake of April
Is shocks had been of almost daily occur
renee. A few days before Palena sailed a
mall village near Mount Tacoma was de-
stroyed, but no details could be obtained.
The volcano Of Santa Maria is also said
to have been in a state Of eruption.
