ORANGE ITALIANS QUIET.
New Mount Carmel Priest Sings
Masses to Calm But Slim
Congregation.

Orange, Feb. There was no fur
ther trouble in Orange today or any
demonstration of the Italians regard
ing the hospital of the Immaculate
Conception. The Rev. John Rongetti,
who came here from Hoboken yester-
day to take the place of the Rev.
Father Francesca Victor Romanelli,
who was banished from Orange by
Bishop O'Connor as result of the
disturbances last Sunday, sung all the
masses at the Church of Our Lady
of Mount Carmel. That there is still
feeling, though, was shown by the slim
attendance at the various masses.
Chief of Police Washer had a large
force of men on reserve, and several
on the spot, and though few people
fingered near the hospital to see if
anything would happen, there was no
demonstration. The chief said after
ward that he thought the trouble was
ended.

GENERAL CHAFFEE
RETIRED FROM
SERVICE
War Hero Who Worked From
Ranks to the Highest
Office.

Washington, D. c., Feb 1.-The
official life of gallant old warrior
expired today, when, by reason of the
fact that this is the sixty-fourth ami
versary of his birth, Lieutenant-G Cen
eral Adna r. Chaffee, late chief Of
staff of the army, was retired from ac-
tive service. The usual leave-takings
were not in order, for the reason that
Gen. Chaffee two weeks ago relin-
quished his Office of chief of staff in
favor of his successor, Gen. Bates, and
has gone to Southern California where
he is to make his future home.
1t is a grand record that Gen. Chat
fee leaves upon the pages of the de-
partment from which he has now
taken his departure From private
in the ranks, which he entered freck-
led and bronzed from the harvest
fields, he worked his way step by step
to the highest rank within the gift of
the United States army.
General Chaffee was born in Ohio N
1912, and entered the service as pri-
vate soldier In the Sixth Cavalry in
July, 1861. In March, 1868, he was
commissioned second lieutenant. be-

MR.J0HNS0N
IS At THE
HEA[:
Selected as Chairman of Insur-
ance Committee in Chicago
Today-One Hundred Dele
gates in Attendance.

Chicago, Feb. More than one
hundred state officials including sew
eral governors, commissioners of in
surance, attorney generals, and rep
resentatives of insurance companies
were present at the opening session
today of the national convention call
ed to discuss measures of control of
insurance companies in various
states. Thomas E. Drake, insurance
commissioner of the District of Col
umbia, presided at the opening session
and called the convention to order.
Commissioner Drake in calling the
meeting to order said: "The ex-
pOsure of some methods of some life
insurance companies by the legisla-
tive committee of New York, which
demonstrated the urgent necessity for
better insurance laws throughout the
country, was the principal reason for
calling together governors, attorney
generals, insurance commissioners
and others of SO many states and ter
ritories. The meeting, however, is the
direct result of correspondence begun
last November by Governor Johnson
of Minnesota with the president of the
United States. 1t was felt that in the
general prevailing excitement and
deep feeling amongst the public and
policyholders, the legislatures about
to convene might adopt drastic and
unreasonable measures harmful not
only to insurance companies, but also
injurious to policyholders. A plan
was agreed upon and approved by the
president and commissioners of the
District of Columbia that bill be in
troduced in congress to be the code
for the regulation of insurance in the
District Of Columbia, but which, with
necessary changes may be enacted by
states and territories, thus making
uniform regulation of insurance"
The report of the committee on per-
manent organization naming Gov.
John A: Johnson of Minnesota as
chairman and Frederick H. Nash of
Massachusetts as secretary was adopt
ed unanimously. Gov. Johnson in
taking the, chair spoke briefly, ex-
pressing the hope that the action of
the convention might have the effect
of restoring confidence in relation to
the insurance matters throughout the
country.

MRS. YERKES IS
VICTIM Of A

3. .-sTsi
Son Receives Telegram From
Her Denying the
Stories.

Chicago, Feb. Charles e. Yerhes
of this city, son of the late Charles +.
Yerkes, declared that Mrs. G. T.
Yerkes MRS Mizner) is the victim
of plot and that the publicity which
has been given her affairs within the
last two days is the result of jobbery.
Early today, in response to a tele-
gram sent to Mrs. Yerkes (Mizner1
last night, Mr.. Yerkes received the fol-
lowing:
/. New York, Feb. Telegram re-
ceived. Story is simply ridiculous.
Mrs. c. T. Yerkes."
After reading the message, Mr.. Yer
kes said:
That is in response to a message
sent by me. We are sure now that this
great publicity is being played az q
game in New York by some people whs
are conspiring to certain end"
What is their motive, if the story
is not true?" he was asked.
Il cannot discuss the motives" said
Mr.. Yerkes.
Confirmed In New York.
New York, Feb. mo statement
from Mrs. Yerkes was obtainable here
today as to whether or not she had
been married to Wilson Miner. Rev.

WARR0AD HAS
A|||MURDER A
MYSTERY !: 4 R||'| !
Officials Hurrying to Beltrami
County Fugitives May
Escape.

Especial to The Evening Times.l
Crookst0n, MINI. Feb IA brief
telegram was received at. Cro0kston
last evening announcing that a most
brutal murder had been committed at
Warroad, Beltrami county. There are
absolutely no details to the affair OBJ
tainable at this time, and the affair
is shrouded in a mystery that gives
evidences Of powerful influences at
work to protect the criminals.
All that Is known there is that there
we're two eye witnesses to the crime,
which was committed yesterday morn-
ing, but nothing can be learned as to
who the culprits are or who the VIC
tim of the murder is.
Coroner e. H. Marcum of Bemidji
was also notified and arrived at
Crookston last evening enroute to the
scene Of the outrage, and left on the
flyer this morning for Winnipeg from
where he will proceed to Warroad, ar
Tiying there this evening If he makes
close connections. He was Joined at
Erookston last evening by Sheriff
Bailey Of Beltrami county, who pro:
.ceeded with him, and the two will go
prepared to take vigorous steps to
bring the guilty parties to justice.
The fact that Warroad is located so
close to the canadian boundary and
the further fact that Sc hours Will have
elapsed since the commission Of the
crime before their arrival at Warroad
will give the perpetrators Of the crime
ample opportunity to escape, but as
there were two witnesses to the crime
1t is thought that the murdered will
be brought to Justice eventually.
The murder OF Matt Cannon at
Beaudette less than a year ago makes
the officials the more determined to see
that Justice is meted out and put a
stop to such lawlessness. # ,3

BLIND GIRL GOES SKATING.
Uses Roller Skates In Rink With
Great Success.

Berkeley, Cal, Feb. Miss Helen
Masow, a graduate of the state insti-
tute for the deaf, dumb and blind, who
is unfortunate in having lost the sight
of both eyes, is an unusual girl for
one so hampered. She is we'll known
in local musical circles for her beauti-
full voice and is now creating much in
terest in the college town through her
participation in athletics.
For some time she has been an ar
dent horse woman, riding through the
streets and lanes of Berkeley with as
much ease as her most fortunate sis
ters. who have the gift of sight. Last
night she created considerable COM
ment by appearing at the local skat-
ing rink on roller skates.
At first she was rather timid and
kept to the rail, but as she felt more
and more accustomed to the skates
she grew bolder and ventured into the
middle of the floor. She got along so
we'll that she remained in the center
of the floor all the evening.

Chicago, Feb. DIR. Richard Har-
Ian, president of Lake Forest college,
is to retire from his position at the
end of the present year, because, Il
is said, of his inability to carry On
the work to the full satisfaction Of
the men directly interested in the in
stitution. This announcement was
made last night by Delavan Smith,
president of the trustees of the coll
lege.
Although DR.. Harlan has not given
his resignation to the board. it is un-
derstood that he intends to do SO soon.

president was to retire because tha
school treasury shows a greater de-
f1cit this year than ever before.
DR.. Harlan himself would not talk.
about his intention to resign. Ha
probably will spend next year h
