DUST ADMIRAL BARRY
OFFICER AssERTe HE RETiREs
TO AVOID scANDAL-DENiRe
HE 10 FORCED TO QUIT.
HIS CHARACTER is AssAILED
Suggested Loaded Revolver Be
Sent to His Cabin az Way Out Of
Difficulty President Taft Ap-
proves Application.

San Francisco-Rear Admiral Ed
ward B. Barry was on Monday re-
lieved as commander in chief of the
Pacific feet, in pursuance of orders
received from the navy department at
Washington, by Rear Admiral Chaun-
cey NJ Thomas, commander of the
second squadron of the fleet, who ar
rived here Monday on his flagship,
the California, after a hurried trip
from Santa Barbara.
Admiral Barry had requested imme-
date retirement under the rule of
more than 40 years service.
The cause of Admiral Barry's sud
den desire to leave the service after
having held the post of feet com
mander for only few months is the
subject of a great deal of gossip and
speculation in naval and club circles
here. Stories rejecting seriously up
on the character of the retiring adj
miral are being circulated widely and
naval officers in port have taken cog
ni8ance of them. There is an intima-
ton in these stories that the adm&al
has been forced to retire.
In speaking of these rumors, Ad
miral Barry said:
ut is not true that l have been
forced to retire. Other men have
asked for immediate retirement be-
fore. The reasons that have caused
me to do this are partly public and
partly private. The man who Is tri-
umphantly indicated under such cir
cumstances Is as much the loser as If
the charges were proved to be true.
believe that by requesting imme-
diate retirement I can save a naval
scandal
The stories concerning Admiral
Barry are Of nature rejecting upon
his moral character According to re-
ports published here the admiral sent
his request for relief to Washington
following a conference with the staff
and line officers on board the West
Virginia. At this conference, it is re-
ported the suggestion was made that
a loaded revolver be sent to the ad-
miraIs cabin, but this suggestion was
lost on a vote. The officers present
then took an oath of secrecy on con-
dttion that Admiral Barry forward his
resignation to Washington at once.
Instead of resigning the admiral re-
quested retirement After that fact
became known the subject matter of
the conference leaked out until all the
sailors of the feet were talking
Washington.-The application of
Rear Admiral Barry for retirement
has been approved by President Taft
and he has been transferred to the
retired list of the navy
This action was taken before the
publication of the allegations that Of
fcers of the flagship West Virginia
contemplated charges against the ad-
miral rejecting upon his moral char
acter.

NURSE RELATIVE OF SCHENK
Woman Detective Who Lured on Ac-
cused wife Reveals the Fact
In Court

Wheeling w. Va.-The cross-exam-
ination Monday of Miss Elinor Kline,
the detective nurse who swore that
Mrs. Laura FarnswCrth Schenk had
offered her $1,000 to give a poisoned
rill to her millionaire husband, John
O. Schenk, failed to break her dam
aging story.
Attorney Samuel O. Royce, who is
counted one of the cleverest barris-
ters In West Virginia, hurled trapping
questions and bitter sarcasm at Miss
Kline for six hours. He denounced
her as a "mercenary" who had de-
liberately lied to Mrs. Schenk to gain
her confidence. An occasional effort
to make the witness contradict her
self brought out new statements that
were damaging against the defendant.
A curious revelation, made at the
beginning of the session, was that
Miss Kline is a distant relative of the
Schenk family, although she didn't
know it herself until she came from
Pittsburg to Wheeling to try to catch
Mrs. Schenk in the act of giving her
husband poison.
1t came out fol- the first time that
Miss Kline had been arrested with
Mrs. Schenk as legal trick and locked
up with the defendant in order to
gain further condolences the latter
might volunteer.
81 said to her." testified the detec-
tive nurse, telling of the arrest, "Oh,
Mrs. Schenk, what have you gotten us
into? What will they do if they find
that you and I planned to poison Mr.
Schenk?"
"Oh, shut up, you fool Mrs. Schenk
replied. You can lie out of it; don't
tell anything: just keep quiet"

agreement all former employees of the
concern will be taken back, and there
will be no discrimination against
members of the United Garment
Workers. The compromise provides
for a committee of three to arbitrate

MOB STORMS 4 JAIL /.
BATTERS DOWN DOORS OF SHELL
sYVlLLE (kY.) JAIL, LYNCH
THREE NEGROES.
TWO ARE SHOT TO DEATH
Rope Breaks, Prisoners Run, Are Fur
sued and RiddIed With Bullets
Murderer and Two lnsulters OF
Women Are Victims.

Shelbyville, Ky.-Twenty masked
men early Sunday stormed the jail
here, seized three negroes and strung
them up to a railroad bridge. The
rope broke with two of the victims
and they were shot to death.
The dead negroes are: Eugene Mar
shall, who had been convicted OF the
charge of numbering an aged negro
woman, and had been sentenced to the
penitentiary for life; Wade Patterson,
charged with OBTAINING Miss Elizabeth
Rubel, white nine-teen-year-old Shell
byville girl, and James West, negro
charged with OBTAINING Miss Mary
Coley, a white girl of this place
Feeling had been high since the ar
rest of the two negroes several weeks
ago and they were taken to Louis
Vile, where they were held for safe
keeping until Thursday, when the
local authorities brought them here to
stand trial. However, the news OF
their arrival spread and as there was
no demonstration, the authorities be-
lieved that the citizens would allow
the law to take it's course.
The mob rifled local blacksmith
shop and secured sledge hammer
and various other tools for breaking
doors and cutting bolts. They then
proceeded to the county jail.
The negroes were awakened by the
blows on the doors and knew that the
mob had arrived. Pleading for their
lives they were dragged out of the
jail and hurried across town, where
they could be hanged outside of the
city. Ropes were quickly adjusted
and it is said that no time was given
over to q confessional.
AS Patterson and West, who were
hung on the same rope, were swung
over the end of railroad tie, their
bodies dangling several feet below, the
rope snapped. The two negroes then
made a break for cover. The body OF
Patterson was found riddled with bull
lets near the creek. Vests body has
not been recovered, but it Is stated
that he was shot Marshall's body
was found swinging from the bridge.
There will be an investigation of
the hanging, but it is believed that
there will be no arrests.

NAY DEFEAT PENSION BILL
SENATE MANA0ER9 FURIOUS
OVER HOUSE ACTION.
Deficit VIII Pile Up
Rapidly.

washington. The action Of the
house In passing the pension bill
adding $45, 000, 900 to the rolls has
aroused the fury of the managers OF
the senate.
This was done in increasing tho
amount of pensions paid under the old
age pension law, the increases being
so great that the bill as sent to the
senate carries new appropriation for
an amount in excess of all that has
been saved through careful manipula-
ton and obedience to the demands Of
the president, in the army, the navy
and the treasury departments. II this
bill becomes a law as passed by the
house, senators say it will be impossi-
bic to show any saving at this session
of congress and the deficit will con-
tinue to pile up at an amazing rate.
1t is known that President Taft is
opposed to the increase provided for.
He believes the pension laws as they
stand are moro than generous. Expert
ence has shown that where there is a
neritorious case it Is not difficult to
pass a special act caring for that par
ticular case
Unless there is a radical change in
the sentiment of the senate the bill
will not be passed. One senator. dis
cussing it, said this measure had been
condemned more in the cloak and com
mittee rooms than any bill the house
has sent over in years.

FAMOUS PAINTING MUTILATED
"The Night Watch" Slashed by
Discharged Employee, but 1t
May Be Restored.

Rotterdam. A discharged naval
cook named Sigrist entered the Rijks
museum and with knife deliberately
slashed and badly damaged Rem
brandt's most famous picture, The
Night Watch"
Sigrist, who was arrested, declared
that his vandalism was an act of ven
geance against the state because of
his discharge from the navy.
The cuts traverse the principal fig
uTes Of Captain Franz Banning
Cocq's company of Arquebusters, but
art experts who later viewed the
work expressed the opinion that the
damage was not beyond repair.
The mutila.ed painting is classed as
the most ambitious effort of Rem
brandt in group portraiture, the only
one that rivals it in style and beauty
being the celebrated Anatomical
Lecture"
Rembrandt was born in 1906 and
died in 1869.

The victims were all in the rear sleep

force that the last car of No. 40, a
sleeper, was crushed.
The engine was reduced to wreck

were found. The mutilation was so
great and steam played such havoc
that early Identification was impos-
sible

years the press Of New York has been
mourning because the soil fertility of

The list of Wears at Eastbourne
parish church dates back to 1914, one
of Canon Goodwyn's predecessors be-
ing Rev. Henry Washington, D. D.,
representative of the family of which
the late Sir Godfrey Washington was
a member, says the Church Family
Newspaper This Doctor Washington,
of whom there is a memorial in the
church, had a son who was one of the
survivors Of the tragedy of the Black
Hole of Calcutta, and who was bar
barously murdered a few years later
by native rebels in India. A curious
feature of Eastbourne parish church
is that the chancel is out of rec
tilinear, being inclined somewhat to
the south. 1t is possible that this is
a suggestion of the inclination of Our
Lords head upon the cross. One of
the most interesting antiquities of the
church Is an eastern sepulchre in
which In pre-Reformation times the
burial Of the Lords body was sym
bolically represented by the conse
Grated host being placed there on
Good Friday.

CURE FOR "HiGH BRoWS."

The term high brow" is bit of
modern slang typifying one whose
head is inflated with air or ignorance
instead of knowledge, 1t should not
be applied to any one with real learn
ing. Among the leading high brows
of the town are those persons who
think they think and who invariably
choose the most abstruse subjects
science, religion, the drama, state
craft-for their mental paroxysms,
says the New York Herald. No high
over or lecture on or write books
about Roller Skating as a Career"
The Evolution of the Clothes Wiring
err" or Bringing Home the Cows. .
The organ which they call mind
leads them up from such familiar
fields to the cloudy regions of intel
lectual inebriety where fada and
"isms" complete the destruction of
their wits. It is, Of course, tmpossi-
BILE to check the course Of thought, or
what passes for thought, but it Is a
pity that the habit of attempting to
fill with highly seasoned philosophy
a brain that stands in sore need OF
such simple and nourishing diet as is
afforded by the Rollo books, foP ex-
ample, cannot be summarily dealt
with in a Home for High Brows,
where faddists, immature consumers
of German philosophy, victims of sci
entific and religious quacks may take
a Kelley cure for pretentious ignor-
ance at the hands of masters of the
simultaneous school of thought.
