IDENTIFY
BOMB THROWER
Gen. Rheinbot's AssaiIant at Moscow
Was One of the Terror
Inspiring Mazury
Brothers
By Associated Press

By Associated Press.
MOSCOW, Nov. 13.-The police have
identified the man who yesterday
threw a bomb at Gen. Rheinbot, the
prefect of police as brother of Vlad-
imir Mazury, the leader of the flying
group of terrorists who were captured
In September and executed September
IA for the murder of Col Won Leshino-
koff of the secret police.
A third brother, Sorgier Mazury
was executed for participation in the
st. Petersburg customs robbery. and a
fourth is now in prison here for mem
bership in the revolutionary organi-
Zation.
Gen. Rheinbot defends his action in
shooting the terrorist after the lat
ter had been seized by two of the
policemen on the ground that Mazury
was making desperate struggle to
escape and succeeded in drawing a
revolver and firing shot at the pre-
feet of police.
A revolutionist, supposed to be MAJ
urys accomplice, was killed today
by falling four stories while trying to
escape from the police over house
tops.
General Rheinbot has received hun.
dreds of messages, including a personal
communication from Emperor Nicho-
las through Premier Stolypin, and a
| dispatch from Count Witte. congratI1-
lating him on his escape.
| In spite of these congratulations
which give color to the official version
OF the attempt on the projects life
there are ugly rumors in Moscow thai
General Rheinbot was himself the au-
thor of the plot against his own life.
He Is thought to have schemed to re-
trleve his failing fortunes and to stave
off retirement, it having been decided
upon In official circles to relieve him
from duty.
These suspicious rumors are support
ed by certain circumstantial evidence.
General Rheinbot at the time of the
| attempt was made was following a
path through narrow alleys. The bomb
exploded in manner described as
highly suspicious. Pieces picked UP on
the spot show 1t to have been nothing
more than an imitation bomb without
effective covering and perfectly harm
less. 1t failed to explode until Il had
rolled to the opposite side of the street
and to safe distance from the pre-
feet.
The original theory was that the
bomb did not go off because the dyna-
mite In II was frozen. Now the police
explain that it was a fuse bomb and
the social revOlutionists discarded such
missiles long ago
On account of the indignation aroused
at the statement that Rheinbot shot
down his assailant While ne was be-
ing held by two policemen, a statement
Is issued tonight to the effect that the
bomb thrower, when he was killed by
the general. was struggling to escape
and t1at he also fired at the prefect,
but the revolver which he is alleged TO
have used has not been found. 1t is
declared tonight that the man did not
have revolver; that he fired at no.
body, and he had been promised that
he would be allowed to escape. General
shot him to get rid of him.
The claim made by the police that
the man was a brother of Vladimir
Mazury is now doubted

BANKERS AGREE
ON PRINCIPLES
EMERGENCY CURRENCY is THE
BURNING TOPIC
American Banking Association and the
New York Chamber of Commerce
Committee Submit Re.
suits Of Work
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON Nov. 13.-For more
than five hours today the currency
committees of the American Banking
association and the New York cham
Der of commerce discussed formula
tion of principles" which are to form
the basis of the Legislation for the is
sue of emergency currency In times OF
financial stringency.
These principles will be recon-
mended to congress for enactment into
law at the coming session.
Although the views expressed were
not by any means harmonious at all
times, some of the members say the
discussion showed an evident disposi-
tion to reach common ground upon
which a united appeal can be made to
congress for the legislation desired.
Substantial progress was made In
the work of the committees and when
adjournment was taken most of the
principles which are to govern the
plans to be submitted by the bankers
had been determined upon.
The discussion developed a sentiment
for currency to be issued on the
general credit of a bank desiring to
emit emergency currency during pc
rlods of financial stress, as is done in
the case of various European coun-
tries.
The alternative of this proposition
that of segregating the assets of the
bank as a special security for these
issues-was voted down.
The tax on these general credit is
sues, 1t Is proposed, shall form a guar
antee fund to be placed in the treasury
and to be used to meet the liabilities
of any bank which fails.
The question of what tax to place
on the general credit issues was re-
ferred to a subcommittee consisting
of three members: James B. Forgan
of the First National bank of New
Orleans and Frank A. Vanderlip of the
City National bank of New York. To
this subcommittee also was left the
settlement of various correlated ques-
tions incidental to the general one of
taxation on the credit issues.
{ The opinion of the majority of the
bankers, as expressed today, was that
these credit notes are not to have any
preference over any of the other OBJ
legations of the bank issuing them, but
are simply to be a lien as in the case
of all other bank note issues.
The scheme also contemplates the
daily redemption Of these issues
through the instrumentality of the
clearing houses in the cities in which
the banks issuing them are located.

REFORM SOME
/ DIVORCE LAWS
NATIONAL CONGRESS ADOPTS
( RECOMMENDATIONS
Either Party Is Proven Insane the
Marriage Should Be AnnuIIed.
Girls May Wed at
Sixteen
Nv Aseoolated Press.

BY Associated Press.
4 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1s.--The ma
fional congress on uniform divorce
laws In session in this city today
adopted about one-third of the pro-
posed uniform bill as drafted by the
committee appointed at the meeting
held In Washington six months ago.
The portions adopted include seven
eauses under which annulment of mar
fiage may be obtained and six causes
for absolute divorce.
y The delegates from twenty-seven
states and the district of Columbia and
representatives of all the Protestant
denominations who attended the inter-
national conference on marriage, to-
gether with a Catholic prelate, Bishop
Shanley Of North Dakota, attended the
Sessions, which were presided over by
Governor Pennypacker.
= The important changes in the bill
are the striking out of all references
to proceedings and practice, leaving
the questions for the various legisla-
tive bodies to pass upon. The COM
inittee decided that SO long as open
hearings are held and the laws provide
for direct service on the respondent
and fix punishment for collusion, the
measure need not conform to any fixed
rule.
As to Insanity
Governor Pennypacker took excep-
tion to the clause that If either party
unknown to the other was insane at
the time of marriage it should be an
hulled. The governor held that the
clause would give a commission ap-
pointed by the court a right to begin q
suit in the name of an insane party,
even IL the person not insane did not
want divorce. He argued that mar
riage was a personal relation and a
third person had no rights in the con-
tract
Senotor N Taylor of st. Louis and
G. l.. Munson of Williamsport, Pa,
elashel with the governor on the sub
ject. Mr. Taylor said the third party
is the public and 1t had a right to for
bid the propagation of the insane.
Property rights, he also held, are in
Holved.
Mr.. Munson said the clause was for
the protection of an insane person
against a designing man or woman. He
cited case where the relatives and
friends were helpless to protect an i'm
beetle who had married a designing
woman.
The clause was adopted.
Child Marriages
= There was also opposition to the
clause annuling the marriage of a girl
Under the age of 16 and a youth under
Is. Ernest Mertin of Wisconsin held
that girl under IS years was incapa-
BILE of making a proper marriage con-
tract and Frank H. Kerr of Ohio
favored the law of his state, which
makes the marriage Of boy under 21
and a girl under Is void. Miss Rachel
Siegel of Utah, the only woman speak
,er. held that 16 years for the girl was
all right. She said:
4 1--WE women ought to know"
!. The clause was adopted.
Though personally opposed to di-
rorce, Bishop Stanley voted for the
sections in behalf of his state. because
no other delegate was present.

darkness and filth with never a one to
tend or care for them, and all those who
had known them wishing them in the
land Of spirits.
The aged attendant himself, stricken
to the death, motioned that the sick
men had to keep their heads covered
because of their weakness and inability
to keep the flies from fairly eating them
alive.
At night the place is as deserted as
though it were stricken with leprosy
and for that matter it may even now
contain victims of that dread disease
No light ever shows from the window
no one ever enters or departs, no sound
but the low moaning of pain from the
dying man of the wild shrek of the
delirium of death ever comes from its
tumble down walls.
No wonder the Chinese avoid 1t and
speak of devils, for as the dark pail of
enshrouding night settles down on thai
house of death the mutterings of the
dying consumptives and the labored
breathing and choking of the poppy's s
victim can be heard even in the road
way.
Such is the Chinese house OF death
and Chinese will not talk of it.
Place Is Unsanltary
movement of Chinatown made a wry
face yesterday when he was asked
concerning the place. Mr.. Lem has
spent too much of his time in America
to fear any devil other than a close
fisted trader and he merely shrugged
his shoulders.
THAT place is pest to Chinatown"
he said. Some time ago L tried to
persuade the merchants to leave off
the feast of the dead which is observed
at an expense of $4,000 every three
years and build a Chinese hospital on
sanitary plans so that the sick could
be properly cared for.
"They would not agree with me and
said that the sick could be cared for
at the county hospital and that 1t did
not matter particularly where a man
died so long as he did not die in any
household where his death would
bring bad luck.
And so that place has existed for
many years. The inmates are allowed
TO pick over cast off vegetables and
once In a while a merchant will send
sack Of rice to the gate of the death
house and have II left there. No one
enters there except the doomed. No
one leaves alive.
"And so 1t will be until the Chinese
leave off the superstition of death and
care for their dying as they do for
their living"
And in the meantime the death
house lifts it's foul odors up in the heat
Of midday sun and spreads its dread
germs forth in the depth of the quiet

even he, the highest Republican of

enough to get the bill reported out
