IDENTITY A MYSTERY
Body Of Man Who Killed Rail-
road Detective Unclaimed.

Man Who Died In Brooks Hospital on
Friday Night Was Extremely Re.
ticent About His Life, Evidently
Trying to Shield His Relatives From
the Shame Of His UntImeiy End.
Other Items Of General Interest.
The body of Harry Brown, who shot
and killed Martin Peters, Lake Shore
railroad detective, in a revolver duel
In the Dunkirk yards on Thursday
night and who in turn was the victim
OF bullet from Peters revolver, will
he held by Coroner Blood in hope that
someone will identify the man and
lift the veil of mystery surrounding his
life.
Brown, who died in the Brooks hos
pital Friday night, was reticent about
his life and had little to say, through
frequently questioned before his
death. The police believe that he was
silent Tor the purpose OF snleldlng
from shame his relatives, though
Brown maintained that he had no rela-
tives or friends.
Supposedly similarity Of the cir
cumstances surrounding the death OF
Martin Peters at Dnnkirk and the
death of Christ Reynolds, thu railroad
detective, who was killed in the West
Seneca yards on April IS, leads the
Dunkirk police to believe that Brown
might have been the man who killed
Reynolds. He was questioned about
The matter shortly before his death,
but denied any connection with Reyn-
olds' death.
Coroner Blood has process Of en-
blaming bodies which preserves them
for months and Browns body proba'
bly, will not be buried for long time
unless his identity should be learned
sooner.
Peters was buried Sunday after
noon.

New York, June 2O.-"Popular gov.

constitution, including the initiative.
referendum and recall was con.
demned yesterday by United States
Attorney General Wickersham In an
address before the Yale law school,
ut is an abuse of language to call
such scheme of government 'popu.
lar" said Mr.. Wickersham. 1T is
an attempt to create government OF
all the people by minority OF the
people, for small majority of the
people. To adopt it would be to sub.
ject great institutions, which are the
growth and evolution Of centuries Of
American experience. the devices OF
the French revolution and Swiss SO.
cialism."
Mr.. Wickershams subject was New
States and Constitutions He quot
ed Bryc, and Woodrow Wilson on the
recent tendency in state constitutions
to grow long and cumbersome, and
said that the constitution of Okla
homa was inordinately large, a large
part of its provisions having no place
in the fundamental laws, tested by es-
tablished American standards.
"The distinctively American plan OF
government under fundamental law,
framed with a view to its continuance
unless changed with equal solemnlty,
is absolutely at variance with the new
scheme Of government by initiative
referendum and recall, embodied in
the constitutions of Oklahoma and
