in a hermetically sealed metal casket
The hour for the services has not been
set.
Coroner hewitt yesterday issued a GER
t1ficate of death, showing that Mrs.
Greever died from drowning. Because
of the inability of the authorities TO
learn whether the deranged woman
jumped overheard or accidentally fell
through a hole in the ice it was not
stated in the paper whether death was
due to accident or suicide.
Mrs. Greevers three children who are
with relatives of their father at Burke's
Garden, Va, have not been told OF the
death of their mother. They believe
she is in Washington undergoing treat
ment for the mental disorder which made
it necessary for her to leave home.

Disorderly Man Fights Arrest
at Street Corner.

A large throng gathered at Eighteenth
and L streets northwest aoout O'Clock
last night when Joseph Whiting. coIored.
twenty-seven years old. and Policeman
LOTUS. Of the Third precinct, entertained
with a biting, wrestling, and boxing
match.
There was no price of admission. but
the exhibition. ii is said. far outclassed
some much-advertised wrestling bouts be-
hind the local footlights. The excitement
started when Whiting, intoxicated, the
police say, started disturbance with
passers-by.
LOTUS arrested the colored man and
started 10 call a patrol wagon. Whiting.
it is charged, fastened two rows OF front
teeth in the hand OF LOTUS so firmly
that the policeman relieved himself of a
yell that could be heard for blocks.
The fray waXed fast and furious and
when the wagon arrived LOTUS was sit
ting on Whiting. who lay painting on his
back on the asphalt. Arrested on charge
of disorderly conduct, Whiting was fur
ther burdened by a charge of assault
when searched at the station. one of
his pockets yielded a razor blade. and
a charge of carrying concealed weap-
ons was lodged.
ThrongS at Ninth and C streets north
west witnessed a lively and exciting
one-round bout yesterday afternoon
between August Maske, twenty-three
years old. of 941 Florida avenue north
west and Crossing Policeman ]. r.

reality. Jenkins used his baton with
telling effect andAiaske went down and
out, and later to Emergency Hospital.
Still later Maske had the pleasure OF
inspecting the new steel cells in the
First precinct station. He inspected
from the interior, awaiting Arraign-
ment on charges OF assault and dis
orderly conduct.
