CAR CRASHES INTO HeARSe
COFFIN THROWN TO STREET
AND DRIVER INJURED.
Georgetown Pedestrians Mortified BY
Distressing Accident to Funeral
Procession on NJ Street.

One OF the most shocking accidents ever
witnessed In Washington occurred at the

Va. for burial. Mr. Dutrow. who lived
at 3272 NJ street. died at Georgetown Uni
versity Hospital Sunday. He was sixty
years old.
When the car crashed into the hearso
bystanders were so paralyxed with hor-
ror that 1t was several minutes before
they could collect themselves and 60 to
the rescue. John ]. OLooney. who
drove the hearse. was knocked almost
unconscious. The coffin containing Mr..
burrows remains suffered no injury
from the fall. The horses hitched to the

SAID TO Be SHORT OF FUNDS
TROUBL E AHEAD FOR ARMY
AND NAVY UNION.
District Delegates Disgruntled Over
Condition Of Organization as
Shown at Erie Convention.

There is evidently more trouble IN store
for the Army and Navy Union.
Following the recent national encamp-
ment of the organization at Erie. Pa,
sensational stories have been set af1oat
by the District delegates to that meet
ing, who express Indignation at the finan-
cial condition of the organization, as de-
veloped at Erie.
There Is a shortage of the funds OF
the organization that may go far beyond
$780, said COL Benjamin F. Chase.
president of the District of Columbia
council of administration of the Army
and Navy Union. when he was asked
about the reports today.
Col Chase said that National Com
mander J. Edwin Browne is not respon-
sible for the alleged shortage In the &C
counts of the union. In order that the
exact amount may be known and the
responsibility fixed, the national finance
committee has gone to headquarters at
Baltimore to investigate
The local members, who have but re-

Use to assemble in force Friday night at
the meeting of Porter Garrison in G. A.
r. Hall to voice their sentiments.
The delegates from the six District gar
risons to the Erie encampment will meet
Thursday evening at the Portner, when,
1t is expected a full report of the alleged
shortage will be made. There is also talk
of taking the initiative in this city for the
formation Of a new body Of former sol
diers and sailors along the lines Of the
Army and Navy Union. to which members
of the union will be admitted.
Friends of Gen Andrew S. Burt say the
reason he withdrew from the race for the
national commandership was because of
the alleged shortage in the funds of the
association.
Col. Chase said there was not enough
money in the national treasury to pay the
expenses of the encampment at Erie The
endowment fund was created to pay bene-
fits to widows and children of deceased
members of the association. The gen.
eral fund is for the purpose of paying the
current expenses of the association.
Word came from Baltimore today that
Gen. Browne. national commander and
his friends have already taken steps to
make good any shortage that may be
found in the funds of the association,
claiming that if there Is a shortage Gen.
Browne is in no way responsible for it,
The public is asked to reserve it's judg-
ment until after the meeting Of the ma
tional finance committee at Baltimore and
the PRONUNCIATION of its report.

Perrin SUICIDE INQUIRY OPENS
EVIDENCE OF TWO WITNESSES
HEARD AT INQUEST.
Proceedings Then Adjourned to Per.
NIT Husband of Deceased
Woman to Attend.

HARROW. England, September A.
The inquest was opened here this after
noon into the suicide last Saturday of
Mrs. Lawrence Perrin. daughter OF the
late Gen. Victor A. Sartori of Philadel-
phia. who killed herself with a revolver
in the home of Mr.. Ackroyd, where she
was a guest. After taking the evidence
of Mr.. and Mrs. Ackroyd the investiga-
ton was adjourned until September %,
at the request Of the jury. in order to
permit Mrs. Perins husband to attend.
Mrs. Ackroyd. who is a sister of the
dead woman. said that Mrs. Perrin was
unhappy in her married life. She de-
clared also that the letter left by the
suicide was very brief and gave no rea-
son for the tragedy. 1t asked Mrs. Ack-
royd to send cablegrams to Mr.. Perrin.
but not to break the news all at once.
and it concludes with the suggestion.
You can say l was looking for bur-
glars"
Evidence Of Depression.
Mrs. Ackroyd parted from her sister
early in the morning of September IL, a
few hours before the body was found.
She declared that there was nothing in
her conversation with her sister that
morning suggestive Of the tragedy. She
did know. however. that her sister dread
ed going back to America, wither Mr.
Perrin had preceded her. Mrs. Perrin had
never threatened to take her life. But at
times she was terribly depressed, and
she was in such a condition when Mrs.
Ackroyd bade her good night. She told
the witness that she dreaded leaving her,
and Mrs. Ackroyd thought the tmme-
date cause of her sisters depression was
because she was to leave Harrow that
day. She had no idea Mrs. Perrin thought
of suicide.
Mr.. Ackroyd testified that he knew OF
no trouble in Mrs. Perins life that would
lead her to commit suicide.
The body of Mrs. Perrin was buried this
afternoon.

death. Fannie Infusino, six years Old,
wounded in the arms. on whose story
the police are relying to aid them IN
the search for the murderer, Is still at
Paxton Hospital. weak from loss OF
blood and too confused to give con-
nected version of the circumstances
surrounding the crime.
The identity of the murderer is as mucn
a mystery today as 1t was Immediately
following the discovery of the tragedy
yesterday The expectation OF the police
last night that the assailant would be
captured before daybreak today not only
has not been realized. but at least two
promising clues, which they worked on
all night, have been shattered.
The authorities today are convinced that
the double murder was the work OF lu-
matte. They fear that unless he is speed
lily unprecedented there will be repetition
of the horrible crime.
RaeffeIo Precopio, father of one of the
murdered children, who was held for q
short time last night as a suspect In the
case, was closeted today with Mr.. 1nfu-
sino. father of the two other children VINO
figured in the tragedy. Aided by the detec-
tives, they went over every circumstance
which might shed light on the mystery
Nothing of a direct nature was elected
In fact, the two fathers are at loss to
account for the assault, and do not know
to whom or to what source to ascribe It,
But the meager information obtained was
put into the hands of the detectives. They
began working on it at once.
Enough work was done by the detec-
tives today to show that several sup
posed clues were not founded on facts,
and they were abandoned. Others are
still being investigated as matter or
precaution. but are not promising. The
same is true of some clues sent In by
observing citizens.
Mayor Wheeler today announced that a
reward of $500 would be paid for the ap-
prehension of the murderer.

FEE TO Be SLIGHTLY GREATER
CHARGE FOR REGISTERING
LETTERS TO BE TEN CENTS.
Order Issued by Postmaster General

ing the Office Deficit.

Beginning November the fee for reg
istering letters or parcels will be 10 cents
instead of g. and in case of loss of the
registered article $50 may be recovered
instead of only $25, as at present Post
master General Hitchcock has issued an
order to this effect.
some time ago committee reported to
the Postmaster General that the registry
service was being conducted at a loss and
that the percentage of the recent deceit
OF $16 100000 In the postal service charge
able to the registry service was approx
mately s3,5OO.OOO.
convention of registry experts was
called and subcommittee recently sub
mitted a preliminary report with recon-
mendations tending to cheaper the opera
ton of that branch Of the service The
order Just issued is the first action taken
in that direction.
The committee has proposed a number
of other changes which the Postmaster
General still has under consideration.
among them the registration of parcels of
other than first class mail matter for a
fve-cent registration fee. and an increased
registry fee for matter of greater value
than $50 with an indemnity not exceeding
800. the limit now fxed by law. The
committee will continue its sessions and
later submit a full report Of it's opera
tons. which contemplate important modi-
f1cations of the registry system.
The committee also recommended that
the postal regulations be SO modified as
to permit the delivery Of registered mail
t. any responsible adult at the place of
address, instead of to the person ad-
dressed or upon his written order. as now
required. 1t is explained that where the
sender desires a personal delivery he can
secure 1t by demand Endorsed upon the
envelope, while the addressee can, If he
desires, prevent the delivery Of his reg
tstered mail to any one but himself by
fling an order to that effect at the post
Office. The Postmaster General, however,
has not yet reached a decision upon this
point, it is believed.
For many years the registry fee was 10
cents, but its reduction was made during
the Harrison administration by Postmas-
ter General Wanamaker from 10 cents to
cents,

ADDS TO WORLDS FOOD SUPPLY
BIG YIELD OF WHEAT NOW
RAISED In SIBERIA.
Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.
ST. PETERSBURG, September 8. 1909.
One of the most interesting features
connected with the opening Of Siberia lies
in the future Of the food supply Of the
world, In which the enormous areas OF
virgin soil In its western section are des-
tined to play an important part. With
the present rapid settlement and develon-
ment of the vast khirgiz steppes. with
the expected construction of railways as
surfing the outlet of Siberian wheat to
Russia's northern, western and southern
ports, the last named being assured of
cheap and easy transit when the estab-
lishment of water communication be-
tween the basins Of the Volga and Don
has been accomplished. the steadily in
creasing production of wheat from 81.
IBERIA will find ready access to western
Europe.
Available statistics show that every
family Of settlers has. on an average,
twenty-five acres under wheat at the end
Of the third year. The average harvest
per acre is equal to about 300 CHARTERS.
of which about eighty quarters 60 for the
consumption of the family, the remainder
being available for the market. There
are now over 10000 households In this
tons it is estimated that the present an.
nual surplus Is about 100000 quarters.
But this amount is only a fraction Of the
estimated surplus during the ensuing
years. since the number OF households
settled in western Siberia during the
years 19O6-78 exceeds 10000 or five
times the number previously settled.
One Of the most serious drawbacks to
the investment Of capital in industrial en-
terprises in Siberia lies In the fact that
all the land remains the property Of the
state or the crown. with the exception Of
townlands. The emigrants do not become
freeholders. but only have the usufruct
of the land allotted to them. The diff
Guilty of acquiring land raises a serious
obstacle to the development Of industries.
Its removal cannot be long deferred.
AS regards mining. Siberia also suffers
from restrictions which do not prevail In
European Russia. For instance, In the
Altai region. which is VIGOROUSLY rich In
mineral wealth, the right Of mining il
hampered by the necessity Of obtaining q
special permission from the Altai mining
authorities in each case. Many Of the
iron deposits in the Altai are geologically
related to the Ural. Copper, lead and
silver are also met with In great abun.
dance, but the chief wealth Of the Altai
lies in its coal deposits, which will no
doubt be worked on a large scale as soon
as the present restrictions on mining are
removed.
