DYNAMITE IN THE STOVE
AGED WOMAN KILLED BY MYS.
TERIOUS EXPLOSION.
Vengeful Italians Suspected Of Plac-
ing Explosive in Kin
ding Wood.

PHILADELPHIA, May 2.-Mrs. Yetta
Friedman. seventy years old, was killed
today by an explosion of what Is believed
to have been dynamite in the range OF
her home at 112 South Randolph street, in
this city. Several other persons were in
jured and the house was badly damaged.
The police believe the explosive was
placed in kindling wood by an Italian
who, with his family, formerly rented
rooms from the Friedmans, who conduct
ed a rooming house. The italian family
left the house about a week ago after
a quarrel.
The explosion occurred while Mrs.
Friedman was preparing breakfast. She
had brought in from the yard an arm
full of wood and after placing the wood
and some paper in the range she light
ed the paper and the explosion fol-
lowed.
The aged woman was hurled through
a doorway into sleeping room adjoin
ing the kitchen and was so badly in
jured that she died within short time
Her husband was also hurt. Two chill
dren sleeping in q room over the kitch-
en- were thrown from their bed and
slightly injured. Two persons passing
the house were struck by flying debris
The other tenants in the house were
not harmed. The lower part Of the
house was almost completely wrecked.
wood was found in the yard and no
body knew who placed it there, and
about week ago another bundle was
found. No one claiming the wood. the
is that hole was bored in a large
piece of the wood and dynamite in
serted.
Search is being made for the Italian
family. Despite the fact that the
| Italians lived in the house six months
Friedman does not know their names

COMMITTEE WOULD NOT ACT
Twice Refused Request of Attorney
Brandeis for Specific
Information

An effort was initiated in the House to-
day to compel Attorney General Wicker
sham to make public the documents and
other informa ton bearing on the prep
aration of the summary of the CLAWS
charges. for which Attorney Brandeis,
counsel for l.. r. CLAWS, sought unsuc-
cessfully through the BallingerPinchot
investigating committee.
Representative Burton Harrison, demo-
crat, of New York introduced resolu-
ton calling upon the Attorney General
for the Information. The resolution was
referred TO the rules committee.
Request Twice Rejected.
The republican ma ajority of the nvesii-
eating committee twice rejected Mr..
Brandeis' request, in spite Of the protest
of the democratic members, supported by
Representative Madison. the ''insurgent
member. This action was taken on the
ground that the committee had no power
to draw the Attorney General into the in
quiry.
Mr. Harrison introduced his resolution
after conference with Representative
Graham one of the democratic members
Of the committee. who said the resolu
ton had his full Endorsement.
Il presented this resolution, said Mr..
Harrison, because the republican mem
bers of the Ballinger- Pinchot investigat-
ng committee denied the committee and
he public the right to this Information.
In doing so, they also denied the House
The same information. I think we should
have all the facts in this matter and do
not approve Of any evident attempt to
conceal something.

ECONOMIES IN THE NAVY.
Striking Decrease Shown in the
CONSUMPTION of Coal.

the Navy Department the vessels of the
navy. used $50, 2296 tons of coal during the
first half of the fiscal year 1910. Com
pared with the previous year this coal
consumption represents a saving of So
57S tons. The saving was partly due to a
decrease in the amount of cruising, al
though the latter was to great extent
counterbalanced by a considerable in
crease in the average speed.
Reports received at the department
show that since December. 1909, the av-
erage coal consumption of all vessels OF
the navy per knot run at a given speed
has further decreased by per cent. and
that the average mileage per gallon of
lubricating oil has increased per cent.
There are several special instances of
improvement. On the Kansas there has
been a continuous Improvement from
That vessel is now leading the battle
ships in economy of coal consumption
in port and has taken the lead from the
Rhode Island in economy Of oil con-
Hampshire uses the least lubricating Oil
in port. The port coal consumption
of the three scouts has decreased
IL per cent. The Montana has
used the least makeup feed water. The
most notable improvement on any vessel
souri, where the amount Of coal per
knot under way was decreased % per
cent and the amount of coal used daily
in port was decreased 3o per cent
A good idea of the. economy in coal
that is being maintained may be gather
ed from the fact that on the return
trip Of tho Atlantic feet from Guantta-
namo the speed was 12.1 knots. against
11b knots going down, and that although
the ships had been several months longer
out of dock the increased speed returning
was maintained for about 1j0 tons less
coal daily than was consumed going
down.
