J. P. Morgan Returns
More Reticent Than Ever

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-More reticent
than ever, If such a thing is possible
: J. P. Morgan returned to this city on
the steamer Olympic today. From the
moment the giant leviathan reached the
quarantine station until he disembarked
the financier was carefully guarded,
strong EARNED stewards blocking the way
to the imperial suite. which he occupied,
and announcing that MIR. Morgan has
nothing to say"
Mr.. Morgan was an interested speCta-
tor as the biggest steamer in the world
was warped into her berth, and he was
the first man off the boat. He assisted
p. A. b. Widener the Philadelphia
millionaire, down the Eangway and then
went TO the upper end of the dock where
his big yacht, Corsair was waiting for
him.
Mrs. Morgan and other members OF
the family greeted him on the yacht. A
fellow passenger on the Olympic was
Admiral Lord Beresfotd. Or the British
navy, who said he was here for a visit
with his friend. Col Robert NJ. Thomp-
son, who took him from the steamer in
his yacht. The admiral was much in
rerested in the fate of the peace treaties
now before the Senate, but said he had
little hope that even If ratified, they
would cause disarmament.

CHICAGO AVIATION
MEET To CONTINUE,
DESPITE M|SHAPS
Flying Won't Halt Because
of Deaths of Johnstone
ia, and Badger.

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-Despite yester-
days fatal accidents, in which ST. Croix
Johnstone and William r. Badger met
death, the management of the ChicaSo
aviation meeting announced today that
the tournament will be continued. The
other aviators, apparently mistaken by
the death of the two young flyers, de-
clared they would continue in their
flights for the rich purses.
1t is estimated that 100000 persons
saw Badger, the young Pittsburg mil
Nonaire, meet his death under the
wreckage Of his Baldwin red devil.
He failed to properly handle his ma
chine, and in seeking to bring it to
level keel threw his elevatinS planes
UP too suddenly. The Strain was too
great, and they broke, hurting the ma
chine to the ground.
Johnstone's death was even more
spectacular, occurring a mile out over
the lake, where numberless thousands
might see Alfred Moissant today said
Johnstone was seeking TO execute "a
volplane, which he had never tried be-
fore, and had forgotten to turn off his
motor. The terrific speed attained or
the downward flight was too severe for
the machine, and 1t plunged straight
into the lake.

He explained his slow time by saying
he had constantly to ascend and de-
scend to find proper air currents.

The City Policeman and
The Sympathy He Gets

The man in uniform" says Magis-
trate House, lis a target for street
loafers."
It's a funny thing" unused Officer
Findley some months ago, but every
body is against a cop. If he gets the
worst of 1t in a scrap, everybody is sat
isfied, and If a cop was to walk his
beat with a blacked eye, every citizen
would laugh hisself to death in the
matter.
XIII the copv that's what they
shout. And yet what is he doing? He
is doing his duty. Take a fireman. he
does his duty, too, but he's a hero.
Why? His work isn't any more dan
gerous than a cops. Perhaps you think
it's a cinch TO arrest a dangerous char
acter who is waving a gun or a knife or
a razor. Well, it isn't, and a cop
never knows when he goes out in the
morning whether his wife will be a
widow by night. And say! Imagine this
town without any cops for just one
week! What?'-New York Sun.

Held for Sanity Inquiry

Cornelius Alexander, twclve-year-
old boy, has been sent to the Washing
ton Asylum Hospital for observation be-
cause OF facts brought out at his trial
in the Juvenile Court yesterday after
noon. Mrs. Thomas Weaver, OF l2l2
Four-and- a-half street southwest, ac-
cused Cornelius of entering her house
early yesterday morning.
She told the court that the lad went
through her husbands clothes and
fought her brutally when she jumped
out of bed and caught him. She held
him until a policeman came and took
him.
Cornelius admitted the charge and
said further that he was in the habit of
stealing, and found 1t a pleasurable
diversion. His mother said the Ooy was
a confirmed thief and had been ore ever
since he fell from a bicycle several
years ago.
