HUNTINaTONs KNOWN HERE.
Father was a Gallant Army Officer.
Son Eccentric.


Owing to the fact that the first dispatches
relative to the tragic scene at the death bed

WAKEFIELD WANTS TO KNOW.
Maryland Governor Causes Investiga
ton of Potomac River Ark.

Gov Wartield of Maryland has just con-
Guided a quiet investigation of the house,
boat or ark which has been on the Poto-
mac near Alexandria for a year and half
and in which 1t Is alleged that gambling in
all its alluring forms was carried on. The
governor had heard that the place was
closed and to verify the report he sent De-
tectve Paddy Armstrong of Baltimore over
to Washington on a gum-shoe mission.
Armstrong told Inspector Boardman Of
the object OF his Journey here and Detec-
tive Pratt of the headquarters staff was
assigned to assist the Baltimore officer
They went down the river and found the
ark lying off Jones Point, as usual. There
was strictly nothing doing" Everything
closed tight and fast and the detec-
tiyes returned to the city. They learned
that the alleged proprietor OF the ark in
tends to sell it. has been announced in
The Star. Detective Armstrong has re-
turned to Baltimore and will report the re-
suit of his investigation to Gov. Warfield.
The governors interest in the matter
arose from the fact that it has always
been a question as to whether Virginia or
Maryland had Jurisdiction over that part
of the river near Jones Point, where the
ark was anchored while 1t was open to the
public.
