Body Of Mrs. Margaret F. Buckelew
Buried in Oak Hill.

Surprise was expressed by police officials
this morning when they read in a morning
paper that detectives were investigating the
case of Mrs. Margaret F. Buckelew, who
recently was found dead in bed at her
home ITO 18th street. and that sensational
developments are expected. Maj. Sylves-
ter, Inspector Boardman and Capt. Boyle
of the third precinct denied today that any
investigation had been in progress since
last Saturday, when Detectives Weldon and
Burlingame, third precinct policemen and
Acting Coroner Glazebrook announced the
conclusion that Mrs. Buckelew had died of
gas poisoning, and that the gas had been
left turned on by Mrs. Buckelew at a time
when her condition rendered her irrespon-
sible.

policemen connected with that precinct

Mrs Buckelew is reported to have re-

Suspended Members of Army and
NAVY Union Seek Redress.

The troubles of the Col. Theodore Roose-
welt Garrison of the Army and Navy Union,
which body was recently suspended by Ma
tional Commander Browne, will be taken
before the District courts for settlement.
This decision was reached, 1t is said, ct a
meeting of the members, held last evening
at G. A. R. Hall. Steps were taken to raise
a defense fund, and lawyers will be en-
ployed to take up the matter at once. Adjt.
G. L. Snder, who, at the last regular meet
Ing, had been commissioned to consult
with an attorney, made his report, and It
was on his recommendation that action
was taken.
Commander E. G. Burch presided and
there were many members of Porter.
Henry and Barry garrsons present. big
sum was raised among the 800 members
of these four garrisons, all of whom have
entered the fight in earnest, and the ladies'
auxiliary was represented Popular sub
scriptions were taken and a circular letter
ordered sent to all members, and there was
a generous response.
Another complication arose last night.
when 1t was stated that two members Of
Roosevelt Garrison have died, and as the
garrison is under suspension and its char

usual death benefits. This death benefit -

Adjutant Generals Estimate.

Summing up the reports of the inspecting
officers. in concluding his own report the
adjutant general says: 1t is estimated that
about 10 per cent of the members of the
militia would respond to a call for troops
10 repel invasion or to suppress insurrec-
ton against the authority of the govern
ment."
The organized strength of the National
Guard OF the District, according to special
inspection of 1907, is stated in the report as
follows: Officers, 12I; enlisted men. 1,245,
making a total of 1872. The percentage of
absentees from the special inspection dur
ing the year is stated at 1917. The report
states that none Of the organizations Of
the District National Guard Is organized
in conformity to the United States Army
organization.
The adjutant general says that attention
has been invited in previous reports to the
many cases of lack of suitable facilities for
the proper storage and care of state and
government property intrusted to the care
of militia organizations, and for drill and
other military purposes. That those condi-
tons have not improved to any material ex-
tent Is shown, he says. by the remarks
gathered from reports of adjutants general

OF officers Of the army detailed for duty

the question whether the railroads can
be prosecuted for violations Of the
Elkins act, such violations having been
committed prior to the enactment Of
the Hepburn act in 1906, and no prose

the Hepburn act went into effect. At

with the Progressive party of Japan
for the overthrow Of the Saionji minis

clause in the immigration bill and the
guarantee OF the naturalization rights
of the japanese subjects residing in

in the International plot were vouched

The enormous fund that is being COL

Notwithstanding the sweeping de-
NAL of the existence Of the alliance
between the Japanese of the Pacific

out by Charles Takahashi of Seattle,

ination of Harry Orchard yesterday,
the counsel for Haywood repeatedly
threw the suggestion Of a great coun'
ter-conspiracy formulated and carried
out by the enemies of the Western
Federation of Miners, and indicated a
determination to construct their main
line of defense on that line.
They carried Orchard by slow steps

and in addition to a series OF
Particular Attacks
on the credibility of the witness and
the general probability Of his stories,
and preparing the way for their own
testimony in rebuttal they sought to
show that Orchard has a mania for
boasting of the commission of crimes
non-existant except in his own mind,
and that he is t%estifying under the
control and suggestion of Detective
MCFARLAND.
They began yesterday by making it
clear that as far al Orchard knew of
his own knowledge Haywood, Meyer
and Pettibone had nothing to do with
the inspiration, planning and execu-
ton of the Vindicator explosion. and
that Haywood and Meyer had nothing
to do with the planning of the murder
Of Detective Gregory. Into stronger
relief than had been the direct exam
ination they threw the utter depravity
OF the witness.
Denied by Orchard.
Orchard denied that mine n or
railway men had any part in the indie
pendence station outrage; denied that
he had a mania for confessing ncom-
mitted crimes and denied that he is
under the influence of MCFARLAND.
Two more crimes were brought
home to Orchard yesterday. He con
fessed that he burned a cheese factory
at Ontario to get $500 insurance and
he confessed that he began his life of
crime by selling cheese at short
weight.
Steve Adams is a tenant of the Ada
county Jail and a close cell neighbor
of Haywood, Meyer and Pettibone. He
is for the present non-communicative,
and his custodians say that he is sui
len and will refuse to say q word
when he is called to tie stand.
