SAYS son
TRIED TO
KILL WIFE

LEXINGTON, Oct. 10.-Judge James
NJ Mulligan, whose wife and son,
James, have each been accused in
some way with having placed poison
in a plate of salmon which was set
before Mrs. Mulligan and two of her
children two weeks ago, issued tonight
a signed statement in which he exon
crates his wife from all imputatiOns
and places the entire blame on his son,
James.
He says he has never once considered
as true the intimation of his son James
on the witness stand that Mrs. Multi
gan might have placed the poison in
the salmon to cause further estrange-
ment between him and mis- first wife's
children. He says such a theory is
Lhfounded and that his favorite son.
james, is the only cause of the trouble
He declares that except for the fact
that his son has taken advantage Of
his silence to try to shift the suspicion
of the public to his wife, he would have
allowed the matter to drop although
he knew that he would be taking des-
perate chances.
Judge Mulligan says the negro
Mitchell, who first made the matter
public, is a tool of his son.
The matter is now in the hands of
the grand jury for investigation.

HORSE SALE is MADE
TO LOOK LIKE FUNCTION

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-At Madison
square Garden tonight, in the pres
ence of an assemblage never before
equaled at a similar affair in point of
social and financial Importance, Harry
Payne Whitney, the eldest son of the
late William c. Whitney, became the
sole owner of the stallion Hamburg for
$4,000, and other stations and mares.
including Sandringham for $4,000;
Hadspun, dam of Tanya, for $4,000.
and Endurance by Right, SIC, ,000 For
ty-one head were sold, the total reach
ing 1924, ,750 an average of $54S1 Med
dler was not sold, it being considered
wiser to divide the catalogue into two
parts, reserving Meddler and others
for tonight.
Every foot of space in the mammoth
inclosure was occupied. Men and
women in evening dress were there in
thousands. Prominent among the per-
sons present were: Harry Payne Whit
ney and Mrs. Whitney, PAYNE Whit
ney, H. B. Duryea and Mrs. Duryea,
Clarence H. Mackay, Joseph e. Wild
ener and Mrs. Widener, August Bel
mont, James B. Haggin, Perry Bel

In fact, the event partook largely of
the nature of function, more or less
formal, and when the Whitney and
Duryea party filed in and took seats in
the front row of the reserved section
many there were reminded of the SOL
emn nature Of the affair which made
the sale the most notable in the an

Central.

Notwithstanding the weather the
Central Theater was comfortably filled
on the first presentation of She" last
night and the auspicious opening as
sures a large attendance during the
week. Particular care has been TAX
en- by the management to render the
production equal to the dramatic sit
uations and climaxes that Rider Hag-
gard lent to his popular novel. The
Juror that was created by She" when
the book was placed before the lovers
of Haggard's peculiar style of litera-
ture was reflected in the audience
that witnessed the dramatization.
Eugene That's Lawton returned to
the Central last evening. In the pro-
logue, which was staged with striking
effect, she received an ovation. A
score of beautiful floral tributes were
handed her in evidence that her re-
turn to the Central's playgoers, who
have learned to admire her clever
work was appreciated.
"She" is a play that will not fail to
please the generality of persons. 1t is
full Of human interest and few of its
lines are dull. The scenic efforts of
the Central fully meet the require
ments of the first and last acts. In
the latter Miss Lawton does her
strongest bit of work. The spurning
of her rival and the assassination were
a we'll acted climax deserving of the
applause accorded it. "She" is GER
tain to draw crowded houses.

MORE PAY FOR

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Brigadier
General Frederick Funston, until re-
Gently commanding the Department of
the Columbia. in his annual report
says that additional observation and
conversation with officers confirm him
II. the views expressed in his last re-
port that there should be a substantial
increase in the pay of the enlisted men
OF the army. General Funston says:
There can be scarcely a doubt that
such action would bring into the army
a vastly superior body of men who
would remain in the service. 1t is
doubtful if an increase over present
rates of pay of so per cent for nom
commissioned officers and 80 per cent
for priVates would be more expensive
than under present rates when SO
much time and money are wasted in
trying to make soldiers out of the in
ferior class of men who constitute at
least half of the rank and file of the
army to-day"
General Funston says that the con-
struction and maintenance of the
Alaskan military line has been of ines
timable value in maintaining com
munication between department head
quarters and the various posts in

PROBING INTO
SMITH'S 'SCAREER
New York's District Attor-
ney Sends for Testimony
in Kershaw Will Contest
GREIF PREPARES DATA
Evidence Is Damaging to the
Character of Brother-in-
Law of Nan Patterson

County Clerk Greif, during the last
few days, has been busily engaged in
the preparation Of a document that is
likely to figure prominently in the trial
of Nan Patterson in New York City for
the murder of Caesar Young. the noted
turfman. The document concerns j.
Morgan Smith, brother-in-law of the
accused woman, who is badly wanted
by the New York police. By Smiths
evidence the District Attorney of New
York hopes to prove whence came the
pistol with which Young was shot, the
suspicion being that 1t formerly be-
longed to Smith and from him passed
to Nan Patterson.
Smith and his wife disappeared
shortly after the shooting, and while
the prosecution has been hopeful of
finding him and using him as witness
it is nevertheless taking every possible
precautiOn against his turning his evil
dence in favor of the defendant.
few months before the shooting
Smith was a habitue of the tenderloin
district of San Francisco and figured in
a number of escapades, the most nota-
BILE of which was his connection with
the will of Max H. Kershaw, a former
resident of New York, who died in a
local French restaurant after a long
debauch After Kershaw's death a will
was produced In court IN which the
former Harvard athlete and we'll
known Eastern clubman bequeathed
the major portion of his share in his
family estate to a woman who had
been his associate for a number of
months, and who, it was claimed, had
attended him during his last hours of
illness. In the probating of this will,
which was bitterly contested by Ker-
shaws brother, Smith appeared as the
principal witness, he having been pres
ent in Kershaw's room when the will
was executed and affixed his signature
to it as a witness.
During the court proceedings Smith
was subjected to a severe grilling by
the attorneys for the contesting broth
er and much of the disreputable ca
reer in this city was brought to light.
Shortly after the trial Smith received
from some mysterious source a sum of
money, with which he bought a ticket
to New York and hurried East 1t is

that the District Attorney of New York
intends to use should it be found neces-
sary to bring to light there the part
played by Smith during his stay in this
city. To obtain this data it was neces-
sary for the New York officials to ap-
peal to County Cl' Greif, who fur
nished them with a certified copy of the
testimony in the Kershaw case, which
was forwarded yesterday to New York

SEEK REFUGE
FROM BOXERS

SHANGHAI, Oct. IL. - The British
Minister, Sir Ernst Satow, has notified
the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Af-
fairs of an uprising in Tamingfu and
Changtefu, on the border of Shantung,
Chill and Honan provinces The up
rising has ten thousand adherents. The
foreign missionaries are seeking refuge.
Yuan Shat Kai, Viceroy of the province
of Chilli, has given orders for the sup
preston of the uprising.
Danger is apprehended in the prov
ince of Honan, where the officials are
presumed to be ultra conservative.
General Ma, military Governor of the
province of Chilli, reports that the
Mohammedans are showing symptoms
of rebellion, and that the Russians are
attempting to complicate the situation
by dispatching troops for the protec-
ton Of Russian subjects.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has
entered a protest and has requested
that the Russian troops be recalled. In
the event of a serious protest against
the Anglo-Tibetan treaty it is be-
lieved that Sir Robert Hart will repre-
sent China in the negotiations.

AUTO ACCIDENTS

several pounds of bent wire nails
sharpened to a needle point on the
course of the Vanderbilt cup race
where he tire of George Arents' auto
mobile exploded has spurred District
Attorney Niemann of Hampstead to
make a searching investigation. 1t is
believed that few of the tire casualties
in the race on Saturday were purely
accidental, but that many were the re-
suit of deliberate intent to wreck the
racers.
The nails were discovered along the
Hampstead turnpike to-day by Herbert
Dodge and William Morgan. Morgan
stepped upon one hidden in the dust. So
pointed was the silver of wire that it
penetrated the thick sole of his shoe.
Then several pounds of nails were
found. Half bushel of fragments Of
