YOUNG FIRE CHIEF
MARTYR TO HIS DUTY
"Jaek" Howe, Hero of Baltimore Blaze,
Victim of Rheumatism

NEW YORK, July 17.-Battalion
Chief John P. Howe, who commanded
the New York fire fighters at Balti-
more last winter when they helped save
that city from total destruction, is now
a patient in Bellevue hospital, suffer
ing from acute inf1ammatory rheuma-
tism.
His condition is said to be serious,
but the physicians at Bellevue hope
to save his life.
Howe was taken to his bed three
weeks ago and had several private
physicians attend him. 1t was finally
decided that he should be sent to
hospital.
According to Mrs. Mary Howe, the
young chiefs wife, he contracted a
cold at the Baltimore fire from which
he never recovered. He has fought
many stubborn blazes in this city since
that time. From the first his wife adj
vised him to consult physician, but
Howe said he would try to conquer
his malady alone. He finally grew so
afflicted that he could scarcely walk
and suffered intense pain. Then he
gave up and reported sick
Howe is only thirty-two years old
and is the youngest battalion chief in
the department. He received the Bon
ner medal for exceptional bravery in
the Geneva hotel fire and medal for
rescuing twelve girls from a factory
fire on Pearl street.

NEGRO HAS
DRAMATIC ESCAPE
Real Criminal Turns Up just
In Time to Prevent a
Lynching

HAVANA, July IA Jamaican
negro known by the sobriquet 'Ameri-
cano" who was supposed to have as
saulted and then murdered nine-year-
old Spanish girl, had a narrow escape
from lynching here today. When the
police went to the Jamaican's house
he fed and the crowd which had as
sembled, taking this for an admission
Of guilt, pursued him. The police,
however, captured the negro and took
him to the Office of a local Judge.
Meanwhile Cuban negro, who later
was identified as the real culprit, was
captured outside the city by q police
man, who brought him through little
frequented roads to the Office of the
local Judge, in front of which great
crowd was clamoring for the lynching
OF the Jamaican, who was thought at
the time to be an American.
The two negroes were rushed across
the city in police wagon to the
Audencia court building, where the
Cuban was identified as the perpetrator
of the crime, one of the most atrocious
OF the kind ever known in Cuba.
Crowds gathered in the vicinity of
the prison and at the morgue near by,
where the body Of the child was taken,
but they scattered during the lengthy
hearing of the case in the Audencia
court. The police guarded the streets
approaching the court building
After the examinat ton the Cuban was
taken to prison. The Jamaican will
be released

MYSTERY OF WILD MAN
OF HOLLYWOOD CLEARED
Parents Employ Greek to Brighten
Spooning Couple From Cemetery

PITTSBURG, July 1.-THE mystery
surrounding the negro who has terror
lied persons passing through Highwocd
cemetery, Allegheny, has been cleared
by the statement that the supposed
wild man is not negro; neither is he
a wild man. Instead he is Greek,
and was in the employ of men who de-
sired to break up a practice in the
cemetery to which they were opposed.
and now that it has been done he is
out of q job.
During the late spring and early
summer many young girls residing in
Allegheny, and some from PittSburg,
found it pleasant to walk in the ceme-
terry. They were frequently joined by
young men, and together they walked
about or sat on the GTavestones. The
parents of some of these young people
did not take kindly to the practice, but
it was impossible to break it up, until
one man who has daughter CHANGED
to light upon happy thought.
He had heard runlorS of wild man
in the cemetery, and finding they were
without foundation decided to create
one. He knew a powerful young Greek
in PittSburg who was out of employ
ment, and lost no time in communi-
eating the scheme to him.
Within week afterward children
reported the presence of a wild man
in the cemetery, and soon the story
said it was negro without clothes.
These last parts of the story were
without foundation, but there is little
doubt that a number of persons saw
the man. particularly young men, and
the desired end was attained. The
cemetery ceased to become popular as
a place for evening walks, and the
Greek, having done his duty we'll. was
discharged. Nothing has been heard
of the wild man for several weeks.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
DELIVERS OPINIONS

The deputy sheFiffs now on duty at
South st. Paul and those who may be
sworn into the service later by Sheriff
Grisim must look to the packing COM
panies for any compensation they may
expect to receive for their services A
number of the deputies are understood to
be in the employ of the packing COM
panies but many others. who have been
sworn in by Sheriff Grisim, are said to
have no such understanding with the
packing companies, and arelooking to the
county for their pay. These latteF-depu7.
ties will be disappointed. Hnfess the pack
ing companies pay them. as, neither the
county nor the state has any authority
to do SO.
Attorney General Donahower. after
looking up the law, rendered an opinion
to Sheriff Grisim, the effect. OF which is.
that the special deputies cannot look TO
the county nor the state for their pay.
There is no law that Authorizes the
county or the state to pay for the services
of these deputies said Mr. Donahower
yesterday, land unless the packing COM
panies payIhem it is most probable that
they will not be paid at aAsls=
''Of course, the sheriff has the author
ity to swear them in as. deputies. Just the.
same as any officer of the peace has the
authority to swear in pyStander IN
case where help is needed. but there is no
provision in the law for the payment of
the men,.
Mr.. Donahower was OF the opinion that
the men could not be compelled to serve
as deputies day after day. He believed
the law which gave an orncer the right 10
swear in deputies in sueh cases intend
ed only that the men should act at the
time called upon, and not that they
should serve as deputies during any great
length of time.
This opinion was rendered by Attorney
General Donahower Saturday, when
Sheriff Grisim called at the governor
office but its. purport swas kept. quiet
through fear that the men acting as
deputies might possibly decline to longer
serve unless assured Of being paid for
their time.
Regarding the report that he had
rendered an opinion to the effect that
the militia could not be called out until
blood had been shed or state OF actual
riot was brought about, Mr.. Donahower
said no such opinion had been rendered
by him or by anyone in his Office.
THE governor is commandments
of the state militia. and has the au-
thority to call out the troops at any
time he deems such action necessary,
said Mr. Donahower. The governor is
enjoined by law to preserve peace and
protect property interests and he has
the right to call the state troops to his
aid whenever he believes 1t necessary
to do So 1t is customary, however, for
the governor to await a request from
the sheriff or officers in charge of the
situation, before calling out the troops,
although he may act without any such
request If he believes such officials are
not properly performing their duties. or
should he be convinced of the inability
of the local officials to cope with the
situation

Omaha Plants Ready to Start
OMAHA, Neb., July 17.-Edward A.
Cudahy, head of the Cudahy Packing
company in Omaha, returned today
from Chicago, where he was in confer
enee, together with other packers, with
the strike leaders. Mr.. Cudahy said
that the South Omaha plant Of his
company would begin operations to-
morrow, and that the company
had sufficient men to start slaughter
ing in all departments.
Manager Howe, for Armour & Co.,
stated also that his company would
resume operations tomorrow, and that
many new men were being hired.
Vice-President Vail, OF the Anal
gamated- Meat Cutters, said that none
Of the old men had made application
for work, and that the men would not
return to work until the strike is set
tied. He does not think the packers
are in position to do much, and that
they have been able to secure enough
men to start slaughtering.
