HOT ROAST FOR
NAVAL COURT
Attorney Davis Scored the Of
ticials' Actions in Original
Sutton Investigation

Annapolis, Md, Aug. 13.-The ses-
sion Of the court of inquiry investi-
eating the death of Lieut.. James N
Sutton of the marine corps, reached
the concluding STAGE today. Henry
E. Davis, counsel for Mrs. Sutton, the
mother Of Lieut.. Sutton, summed up
the case. The announcement of the
judge advocate that he would present
no argument placed upon Attorney
Davis, the latter said, an unexpected
burden. He said he would review the
testimony only In the broadest man.
ner. Davis went back to the coming
of Lieut.. Sutton to Annapolis and al
luded to him as "a mothers Offering
to her country's SERVICE" He re-
ferred to the lieutenant's hopes and
aspirations as shown by the letters
to mother and brother and by the
happenings of the day prior to the
tragedy, arguing that everything
tended to negative the idea that Lieut..
Sutton contemplated suicide. He
criticised the composition of the
original board Of inquiry of which
the recorder was Lieut.. e. 8. Willing,
but for whose direliction, Davis said,
Lieut.. Sutton might still be alive.
The board Of inquest. Davis said.
acted with indecent haste and with
no notice to Lieut.. <Sutton's family
and placed upon the lieutenant the
brand of suicide. thus denying him a
Christian burial according to the
family faith. Davis declared that the
board of; inquest had thus consigned
Lieut.. Sutton to an unconsecrated
grave. STAMPING from the parents the
hope of a reunion hereafter with their
own son and. as the parents were
compelled to believe, condemning
their son to eternal punishment.

HOODOO RITES
Of OLD AzTECs
Tear Out Hearts Of Animals to
Appease Gods Of Ignorant
Mexicans

San Antonio, Texas, Aug. 13.-An
outbreak of voodooism is responsible
for the mysterious killing Of many
fine COWS In the vicinity Of this city.
Many owners of cattle living In the
suburbs have looked in vain for their
milk purveyOrs in the morning. The
gentle friends Of the family was
found to be missing, and the insti-
tuted search generally disclosed the
body In the chapparal. G. A. Davis
Of this city was one of the first to
miss his valuable Jersey in this man
ner, and then others have sustained
similar losses.
The odd feature Of the case was
that nothing but the hide and the
heart Of the animal were missing.
At first it was thought that the ami
mails had been killed for their skins,
but close watch kept over the deal
ers In hides has shown that so far
none Of the hides have been disposed
Of. Sheriff Lindsey and his deputies
have been working day and night to
get clew that might lead to COM
plete solution Of the mystery; but so
far they have not been successful. The
offer Of substantial reward has now
been called to their aid.
Though the Mexican population Of
San Antonio Is very orderly. and
law abiding one as whole, there is
enough Of an Indifferent element
among them that would not be averse
to committing these depradations IL
spurred on by what they would con-
slider religious motive. AS is we'll
known, the Indian strain Is very
prominent In the lower class Of Mexi-
cans. AS matter of fact, in q large
percentage Of them the Spanish or
other Aryan blood is q negligible
quantity. That some Of the old In
dian superstitions should have sur.
vived In them and be liable to peri
odical outbreaks is therefore not to
bs wondered at.

THE WEST COAST OF FLORIDA.
Peculiarly Exempt from Hurricanes Similar to
One Which Struck Key West.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: AS a constant reader of your paper, which
might be termed the old reliable in the news il
publishes. allow me to call attention to error
in the heading of your Tampa dispatch of the 18th
inst respecting the recent hurricane which has so
seriously damaged Key West.
The body Of the dispatch states the case correct
Iy while your heading. Fear for West Coast Rail
way Men, makes it appear TO be west coast
hurricane. The west coast. from Ten Thousand
Islands TO the Egmont Light, at the mouth OF
Tampa Bay and beyond has been exempt from the
ravages of the West Indian hurricanes which have
so often swept over the Gulf of Mexico. The his
tory of those tropical storms shows that after
striking the Florida keys they either bend back
into the Atlantic Ocean, where they are lost like
the recent one. or they DETECTED sufficiently to
move south OF the west coast of Florida. hitting
Louisiana and Texas. Seldom do they strike the
section of Mobile. A glance at the map Of Florida
will show why the coast is almost entirely ex-
empt from the hurricanes which have their origin
in the Antilles. This with other reasons. has de-
terrnined many Northerners. like myself TO choose
the west coast in preference TO the Atlantic side,
