DEATH HIS MEANS OF
ESCAPING COURT TRIAL
Harry Walker, Indicted on Ar
son Charge, Takes His
Own Life.

Worried because of his approaching
trial on charge of arson is thought to
have prompted Harry Walker, twenty
three years of age. of Benning. D. c., to
take his life today in rooming house
at 476 Pennsylvania avenue.
Walker was found in an unconscious
condition in his room shortly after II
o'clock this morning. He was removed
to the Emergency Hospital, where he
died a short time later. The body was
removed to the morgue. where an inquest
will probably .be held tomorrow morning.
Detected odor of Gas.
Walker engaged the room about IL
o clock last night. After he had retired
nothing more was seen of him. This
morning another roomer in the house
detected the odor of gas from the room
occupied by Walker The proprietor of
the place was notified and the police were
called in The door of the room was
forced open and Walker was found I'M
conscious on the bed The room was full
of gas which had escaped from an open
jet. He was removed to the hospital but
did not regain consciousness.
In the room was found note writ
ten by. Walker. in which he blamed
woman for his downfall. He further
wrote: When man gets so he is no
good to himself nor to any one else
he had better do the same as / am DO
ing. 1t is all for you, May
The police say they do not know to
whom Walker referred as May. He
was single
Escaped Into Swamp.
Walker was arrested July last on
u charge of arson. According to tho
police of the ninth precinct, he was
employed by f. Baker Evans, near Ben
ming. with Charles Strude and John
Fusney. Walker was discharged from
his place of employment. 1t is stated,
and he believed that the two fellow
employees had caused his dismissal.
About 3 o'clock on the morning of
July 2 last the house occupied by Strude
and Fusney was found on fire and
neighbor told the police she saw Walk
er leaving the vicinity. The latter,
however. made his escape into the
swamps of the Eastern branch, above
Benning. and was not apprehended until
three days later.
He was indicted by the grand jury
and his trial set for next week. 1t is
thought he had worried over the
thought of an Imprisonment for the
arson act and had taken his life rather
than stand trial.

ENHANCES CAPITAL TREAT
AvIAT0RS AT PRESS CLUB

AT O'Clock Saturday morning the
English aviator Claude Grahame-W White
will start from Benning in his airShp in
an endeavor to fly four times over a
course lying from Benning TO the Army
War College. to the Washington Monu-
ment. to Jones point lighthouse near
Alexandria and back to Bennng, and
once over the course lying from Benning
to the Army War College, the Washing
ton Monument and back to Benning, and
thus break the world s record for sus-
tanned distance flying and win the $4,000
prize offered by the Washington Post for
the feat.
The detail arrangements for the flight
were made at a meeting of those inter-
ested this afternoon. 1t had been de-
cided last night that course entirely
within the limits of the District of CO.
lumbia should be substituted for the pro-
posed Westinghouse Baltimore route. Mr.
Grahame-White spent the morning in 60
ing over the route between Benning and
the Alexandria lighthouse, and upon his
return the final details were fixed
Mr.. White suggested the substitution
of the course near to Washington for
the long flight, because it would make
much better course for one not &C
quainted with the country, and not ONLY
would save the probability of the aviator
getting lost, but would put the whole
flight within the continuous view of
WashingtOnians. The Washington Post
which Is Offering the ten-thousan nd dollar
lance record, is not insistent on any one
course.

Rex Smith. who has been working on

it is hardly likely he will attempt flight

country, has his big air bag ready for
the ascent today.

Flight Probably Saturday.

The aviator has not decided on what
day he will try to make the long-distance
flight, but 1t will probably be Saturday,
when spectators will have more oppor-
tunities to witness it. Whether the Bleriot
monoplane or the Farman .biplane will be
used on the flight Mr.. White said today.
will depend on the weather conditions at
the time. The Farman machine is the
steadier and the Bleriot the faster. If the
weather conditions are favorable he will
go after the record In the fast machine,
but If the weather is gusty he will use the
slower and more stable Farman.
After his trip on land this morning Mr.
White attended a noon meeting of some
Of those interested in his flights, and then
went direct to Benning to prepare for his
exhibitions in the air this afternoon. Pre-
liminary to the exhibitions of the next
three days. the English aviator spent
busy afternoon at Benning yesterday. He
went to the race track shortly after
reaching Washington. directed the setting
up of his Beriot monoplane and tried it
out In a flight. He was up only seven
minutes, but reached a height of from
500 to 100 feet. Soon after he came down
there was a twenty-mile wind blowing, so
that the test was just sandwicned in to
enable the aviator to take advantage of
the most favorable weather conditions of
the day.

Wind Stops Smidley's Flight.

Wind prevented John III. Smiley from
making fight at College Park yester-
day afternoon The local aviator had hi
machine i'm readiness for the scheduled
flight, but almost at the moment that
he trundled the aeropiane out on the field
in front sof the grandstand brisk wind
sprang up and continued to blow at the
rate of fifteen or twenty miles an hour
Smidley did not think it advisable to
make the flight in view of the weather
conditions, but to give the crowd a
glimpse of an aeror lane in action he
started his big propeller and did a few
"srass-cutting" stunts. He made no at
tempt whatever to rise from the ground.

CINCINNATI, Ohio. October i%--The
question of changing the name of the
church to the Holy Catholic Church was
on the program to lie brought before the
general convention of the Protestant
Episcopal Church today. II was expected
The matter would come before the house
Of deputies through the report of the
committee on the title page of the prayer
book Of the church, which was scheduled
TO make its report.
Majority and minority reports were pre-
pared by the committee. The majority re-
port opposed and the minority report ia
rored the change of name. The resoiu-
ticns adopted by the house of bishops ap-
pointing a committee to consider JUNCTION

Change in Marriage Laws.

one of the first matters taken up by
the house of bishops today was a pro-
posal to change the laws of marriage
and divorce These are known as Can
ons IS and 80. a canvass of the body at
the beginning of the meeting made 1t APP
pear that marriage in which either party
has been divorced will be abolished in
the church. AS the cdnonS stand the
innocent party in divorce on one ground
may be married by a member of the
Episcopal Church. 1t is thought this reg
ulation will be repealed.
Pensions for aged clergymen We're urged
in a report made by Rev. DIR. j. j. Will
kins dean of St. PaulS Cathedral, Los
Angeles and general secretary of the
million dollar clergy relief fund. He
read figures showing that the average
salary of Episcopalian clergymen in cit
les of 5000 and over is S1,2o2 year.

saw this will be known definitely to-
morrow or Monday. Director OF
Public Safety Clay says not more
than twenty thousand walked out.
The only claim the strike leaders
make is that seventy-fve thousand
workers are out. City officials say
that such great plants as Baldwins s,
Cramps, the Midvale Steel Works,
Brill's Car Works and other large
industrial establishments are not
crippled. These plants, however, are
open shop concerns.
The committee Of ten In charge OF
the strike has taken action calcula-
ted to prevent real suffering to the
general public. In strike benefits the
men will receive from national and
local organizations about seven dol
lars a week.
Negro Cops Sent.
The first serious disorder Of the
dav occurred when half a dozen ne
gro policemen were sent to the trac-
ton power house to protect employ
es. Two power house employees re-
sented the presence Of the negro
officers and made a concerted at
tack upon them with monkey
wrenches. The police retired in bad
order. The employees telephoned po-
lie headquarters that only white po-
icemen would be welcomed as pro-
tectors. National guard officers are
keeping closely in touch with the sit
uation, ready to respond to any call
in the event Of further disorder.
Labor leaders assert that by to-
might thousands Of other employees
will lay down their tools and Mon
day will find the city practically tied
no. The tie-up now appears less
complete than the sanguine labor
leaders predicted.
Workers in unorganized industries
in Philadelphia far outnImber the
union men. The strike is confined
largely to the textile industry and
building trades. The claim is made
that twenty-one thousand in the tex
tile industry alone walked out.
Saloons Closed.
