DAMAGED
BY WINTER WORK
IN CHESAPEAKE BAY
Revenue Cutters Bows Cor
rugated by Hard Smash
ing of Ice.

The bows of the revenue cutter Apache
are corrugated as a result of the ice
smashing accomplished by that little
vessel in Chesapeake bay this winter.
Captain Carmine. in making a per-
sonal report to revenue cutter head
quarters, with respect to his vessel and
its activities on the Chesapeake bay.
declared that the past winter was the
heaviest ever experienced in water this
far South. The little Apache was NOV
ing about the bay when all other ship
ping was suspended. Her steel hull Is
bent in corrugations between the frames
from continuous bucking of the heavy
ice.
1t was announced today that the
Apache will be fitted with a heavy steel
ram. and ice crusher at the opening of
the winter cruise next year. Another
winter like the past would probably put
the little vessel out of commission with
out this protection.
The Apache is cruising in the Potomac C
today on the lookout for any menace to
navigation or violation of the naviga-
ton laws. She will make frequent in
speCton cruises in the Potomac during
the spring and summer months to loOlS
after the local pleasure boatmen. Close
supervision Will be exercised over the
power boats, and in addition the serv-
ice will look after the safety of the

DR.. WILEY SCORES
LACK OF PROVISION
FOR PUBLIC HEALTH
Former Chief Chemist Tells
How Government Ignores
Humans.

Dead persons don't vote and sick
ones cannot get to the polls so we can
not get adequate money from the Gov
ernment to protect public health" said
DIR. Harvey w. Wiley in his address
before the Piney Branch Citizens AS.
sociation last night "The fable of the
fat hog and the sick mother carries
lesson. The mother, with her infant to
care for, was poor. She was stricken
with tuberculosis, Her appeal to her
city, to her State, and to the Govern
ment here in Washington, met no re-
sponse save that there was no money
appropriated to save sick and dying
mothers. The woman died.
Her neighbor had a fat hog that was
ailing, and the neighbor telegraphed to
Washington, My fat hog is sick Ex-
perts from the Department of Agricul-
ture hurried to the hog with serums,
and the animals life was saved. The
mother across the street had died, and
her baby had become a public charge"
The need of better sanitation, purer
water and milk, and pure and proper
food were emphasized by DR.. Wiley. Ho
said that the deaths that occur from
tuberculosis, diphtheria, typhoid fever,
and spinal meningitis are little less than
murders for WHICH the State is re-
sponsible. The diseases are prevent
able, DIR. Wiley said. Infant mortality,
among both whites and blacks, is dis
gracefully high here in Washington, DR..
Wiley insisted, and the conditions of
life in the alleys and many of the short
side streets is in large measure re-
sponsible for the conditions.
The former head of the Chemistry
/ Bureau was introduced by President
! L. M. Tolman, of the Piney Branch
Citizens Association. Following the ad-
dress refreshments were served to the
250 persons who filled the Iowa Avenue

RIGHTS OF A MAN
UNDER SUBPOENA
TOBE DETERMINED
Captain Dean, of Fort Myer,
Must Appear Before Vir-
ginia Judge.

The trial Of the suit against the Great
Falls and Old Dominion Railroad Com
pany for the death of Henry Mitchell
and Fred Kitchen on the evening of
June H. 1911, looked at one time as II
1t. would result disastrously to the lib
erty of William +. Mccormick, who
was at the time of the accident acting
as conductor of the car which struck
the automobile.
Mccormick since that time had en-
listed In the United States Army. and
Is stationed at Fort Bliss in Texas.
Through negotiations with the War De-
partment, leave of absence was OBJ
tained for Mccormick to come from
Texas to testify in the case. Between
the ending of his employment by the
railroad company and his enlistment in
the army, Mccormick had pawned a
diamond ring belonging to a friend, and
for doing this a warrant had been is
sued for his arrest Although he had
later redeemed the ring, and returned
1t, the warrant had never been recalled,
and as he was about to testify in the
present case, he was placed under ar
rest at the instance of the executor
Of the Kitchen estate.
Appeal was made to Judge Barley by
Attorney Wilton j. Lambert, who ap-
peared for the railroad company, ana
at Judge Barley's direction the sheriff
| released Mccormick from arrest, and
he was taken under the protection of
the court, who ruled that being in Nir-
Ginia under subpoena, he was, after
the subpoena had expired. entitled 20
twenty-four hours in which to go out
| of the State unmolested.
1t was only shortly after this ruling
had been made that a corporal ap-
peared al the Court House. and il be-
| came known that he had been detailed
| from Fort Myer to place Mccormick
| under arrest, and having been arrested
| after his testimony was concluded, II
] he were detained for twenty-four hours
| at Fort Myer he would then be liable
| to arrest under the original warrant
| Judge Barley summoned the corporal
before him and under questioning the
| corporal explained that he had been or
| dered to arrest Mccormick, and ex-
/ planned to the court that the orders
were issued by Captain Dean, of Fort
Myer.
The Judge thereupon took Mccormick
under his own personal protection and
| took him in an automobile TO the rail-
\ road station, where he was enabled to
| take the train which would carry him
! out of the State limits.
In addition to this, summons was is
| sued by the judge for Captain Dean to
| appear in the court at Rosslyn for eX-
PLANTATION to Judge Barley as to why he
was not in contempt of court.
! The situation, which develops the
| rights of man under subpoena, is be-
! ing watched with interest by members
OF the District and Virginia bars.
