BELIEVES HIS FATHER DIED RIoH
And Had just Made Big Deal Bc-

Purely Accidental.

New York, May 5.-Certain that his
father, Edward NJ Simonds, New
York broker murdered in Chicago re-
Gently, was very wealthy, his son,
Alan l.. Simonds, has begun an investi-
CATION fthe dead mans business af-
fairs to recover his fortune and to OBJ
tain a clew to his slayer. That ST.
monds met death while on Il sscret
mission of importance to financiers in
New York and Chicago is the belief
of his friends. They say he had al
most completed large deal when he
was killed. Beyond that point. how
ever, no progress has been made to-
ward solving the mystery.
simonds Was Very secretive.
For some reason Simonds for years
kept from his family all information
that now might furnish clews. Where
his offices We're, who were his business
associates and other details are un-
known. When he left home he merely
told his wife he was going to Chicago
on a business matter of great impor-
tance. Ten day safterward he wrote
to his wife saying he had been sue
cessful, was in good health and would
return in about ten days. This letter
was received by Mrs. SimondS an hour
after a telegram announcing that he
had been killed.
Son Knows Very Little.
SimOnd's son says: Il am willing to
tell all know, but it is of little value
in the case. We came from Chicago
five year sago and my father engaged
in the banking and brokerage business,
with an Office downtown. He told us
nothing and we asked no questions.
That he was successful in his venture
1 have no doubt, but today 1 know
absolutely kothing about his assets.

part drifted several hundred yards.
As soon as possible the boats of the
Hamilton were lowered. thick fog
made it impossible for the crew of
the Hamilton to work quickly and in
the few minutes before the boats
reached here the Saginaw was going
down. She settled slowly and then
went down with a suction that almost
drew the boats of the Hamilton after
her.
In the darkness could be heard the
cries of those on the Saginaw. In the
water and clinging to the wreckage
were a number of persons. AS many

washed their hands of all responsible

GERMANY DECIDES THAT
SOUTH AMERICAN WARSHIPS
ARE REALLY NOT WANTED.

Berlin. Feb. 13.-The German Navy De-
rartment. after considering the proposal
that Germany purchase the four battle
ships being constructed for Argentine and
Chile in England and Italy, has decided
not to do so, for two reasons:
First. because the Government Is not will
ing, in view of the present state of the i'm
perial finances. to ask the Reichstag for
the 81. $780, 900 required. Second, because the
general staff of the navy does not wish to
incorporate into the German navy guns of
different c~alibers. and turret machinery and
other essential features Of warships which
are not similar to those in use on German
bilt vessels.
1t is pointed out that tho present homo
gently Of the navy would be impaired were
the four warships to be acquired by Ger
many, as the gunners can now be changed
from ship to ship without loss Of their ef-
ficiency.
But if the four foreign-built vessels were
taken over with their armaments and sep
arate stocks of ammunition, differently
drilled crews would be necessary. 1t IS also
asserted that the construction of all four
of the ships Is SO far advanced that tho
German constructors would be unable to
change the plans.
The Ansaldo Company of Genoa has in
formed the naval authorities here that the
second OF the Argentine battleships building
there will be launched next week.
