MALFEASANCE CHARGE is
MADE BY CONGRESSMAN
Colorado SOIon Accuses Members
of Philippine Government

WASHINGTON, June 13.-As a re-
suit of information sent to the house
last Saturday by the war department
disclosing the alleged fact that Frank
w. Carpenter, executive secretary of
the Philippine government, and e. l..
Worcester had bought and leased "friar
lands" in the Philippines Representa-
tive Martin Democrat, Colorado) today
introduced a resolution demanding an
investigation and charging malfeasance
in office.
Mr.. Worcester is a nephew of the
Philippine secretary of the interior,
Dean c. Worcester. The information
upon which Mr. Martin bases his res
olution was sent to the house in re-
sponse to a previous resolution he had
introduced inquiring what persons had
acquired these lands.
The report said that one of the friar
estates had been sold to Carpenter and
5000 acres of another estate were leased
to e. L. Worcester. The sale and lease
were made by the director of public
lands In the islands and were approved
by the secretary of the interior.
Mr.. Martins resolution declares these
transactions are so criminally corrupt
and immoral as to constitute malfeas-
ance in office on the part of the Off
cialS involved.

CHARGE DOCTOR IS
WITHOUT LICENSE
Mrs. Catherine Stringham Taken
Into Custody at Sanitarium
in Garland Avenue

DR.. Catherine Stringham, 40 years
old, proprietor of a hospital at S3S Gar
land avenue, where she is alleged to
have treated women, horses, mules and
cows for various maladies, was ar
rested by Nick Harris, inspector for
the state medical board, and locked up
in the city Jail last night on a charge
of practicing medicine without a
license. Her right to the title of doc
tor" is disputed.
When Mrs Stringham was taken to
the police station her office equipment,
consisting of an assortment of instru-
ments, was seized and will be held as
evidence.
WOMAN MAKES CHARGE
The complaint against the woman
was sworn to by Mrs. Letitia Bartell
of 936 Potter Park street. Mrs. Bartell
told her story to Deputy District At
torney Paul Mccormick, and declared
that she is physical wreck as the re-
suit of being treated by DR.. Stringham.
Mrs. Bartell suffered from a nervous
ailment in February and was advised
by a friend to go to the Stringham
sanitarium. Mrs. Bartell obtained
rooms at the place and remained there
for two months. According to her
story she began to grow so weak that
she decided to leave the place. She
then was told, according TO her STORY
to take raw alcohol to counteract the
effects of the medicine.
"I bought a pint of alcohol" said
Mrs. Bartell, land took a tablespoon
full. 1t made me very i'll and I put the
stuff aside. DIR. Stringham took the
bottle and drank the contents, ap-
parently without any i'll effect. I lost
twenty pounds while 1 was undergoing
the treatment, which consisted of va
rious harsh remedies, one of which
was rubbing my abdomen with an acid
that burned me terribly.
According to agents working under
the direction of Harris, DR.. Stringham
offered to treat a boy for tumor on
the leg. She declared she had made
careful study of tumors and was
specialist in such matters. The de-
tective made an excuse for not taking
the boy to her, but appeared the fol-
lowing day and wanted her to care for
a sick horse. She agreed to treat the
animal and remarked it is claimed,
that she usually had great success with
cattle and used the same medicine for
imam and beast"
DIR. Stringham was unable to furnish
bail when arrested and will remain In
iail until her case is called in police
court this morning.
She said she has been in Los Angeles
for two years and formerly lived In
Salt Lake City.

BROOKINS BREAKS
PAULHAN'S RECORD

INDIANAPOLIS. June 13.-Soaring
to a height of 1884, feet, Walter
Brool1ins, in a Wright biplane, today
broke the worlds aeroplane record for
altitude in the closing event in the
national aviation meet at the India
napolis speedway.
Brookins' achievement followed ex-
hibition flights by several pupils of
Orville and Wilbur Wright. None of
the other entrants was prepared to take
his machine out of the aerodrome with
the exception of G. L. Bumbaugh of
this city, and his biplane was wrecked
before he had we'll started Bumbaugh
lost control of his forward steering
planes and the machine fell to the
ground from a height of ten feet and
was smashed with the aviator under
1t. The wreckage took fire and Bum
baugh might have been burned to
death had not mechanics run to his as
sistance. He was slightly cut and
bruised.
PAULHAN's RECORD BROKEN
Brookins' high flight, in which he
took the record from Louis Paulhan,
who at Los Angeles rose to 4165 feet,
was a sensational triumph. According
to the register of the instrument
Brookins was 1900 feet in the air at the
end of sixteen minutes. He had risen
to this point in wide circle. The
whirr of the propeller was then lost to
the spectators and the aeroplane was
but a cross floating in the sky.
Continuing his circles Brookins rose
steadily at speed estimated at sixty
miles an hour. Thirty minutes after
he had started he reached his highest
altitude and began the descent, maneu-
vering at lower and lower levels until
at height of 100 feet, he shut off his
motor and glided easily to the ground
alongside the starting rail.
In the first event Of the day exhibit
tion flights over the one mile and a
half aeroplane' course, marked by
flags, Walter Brookins, driving a
Wright biplane, made four laps, or six
miles in 6:45. His altitude ranged from
twenty to fifty feet.
Two of the Wright machines left the
starting rails in a contest for aero
planes carrying two aviators.

POLICEMAN WHO WON
DIAMOND DISCHARGED
Commissioners at Meeting Dis
miss w. L. Claiborne from
the Department

The sequel of the C1aiborne-Taggart
when the police commissioners dis
missed officer w. L. Claiborne from
the force on charges preferred by
Thomas E. Taggart, the druggist who
testified some weeks ago before the
commission that on May the police Of
ficer won his diamond ring on a wager.
Claiborne, who was accused by the
druggist of substituting another and
smaller stone for the one that passed
in the trade between them, when the
matter was called to the attention of
the police commission, stated last night
that If there was any change made in
the diamonds it was during the time
that the ring was in the possession of
his wife. He stoutly maintained that
there had been no substitution of
stones effected.
THAT sounds like a pretty thin story
to me-" interjected Commissioner Well
born, land I think that this man has
abused the confidence Of the commits
sion long enough. 1 move he be dis
missed from the force"
The vote of the commission was to
that effect, and after turning over his
shield and keys to Captain Bradish of
the University station, Claiborne left
enough outside the door to kick his
helmet the width of the building.
John ]. Palves, giving his address as
the Pacific Electric building, brought
charges of disorderly conduct against
the proprietors of a pool room at 10S
East Fifth street, claiming that they
have allowed minors to loiter about
the place, and that several fights have
occurred there. The charges will be
-
night.
Chief Galloway asked for further in
depreciation Of the fireworks ordi-
nance, and was informed that it pro-
hibited all flrecrackers and combusti-
BILE fireworks, but that percussion caps
and similar noise-makers were not
barred. He informed the commission
that certain dealers in the city had
begun to lay in stock of firecrackers,
and he was advised to at once point
out to them that their wares were
under the ban.
Ed. Halbriter, whose license to con-
duct a retail liquor establishment was
recently revoked, sent communication
to the police commission asking that
his case be given rehearing, as cer-
tain evidence had come into his pos
session that would possibly tend to
make the commissions action in his
case less severe. He claims that he
has been a resident Of the city for 23
years, knows no other business and is
unable to make a livelihood except in
the liquor trade. The commission will
act on his plea at the next meeting.
officer Earl Bussee, whose trial on
charges preferred by Chief Galloway of
conduct prejudicial to the department,
was given a weeks respite his case
going over to the next meeting.
Chief Galloway's charges against
Clarence G. Hart, the holder of a Ii
cense to conduct a billiard parlor at
22S-23O East First street, OF permitting
minors in his place. will be heard on
the same night.
