sculpture, paintings, bronze work,

work.
Mr.. Lukeman said Italy received
about s50,000,o00 a year from foreigners
who spend all or part Of their time IN
that country studying art. The speaker
said this was a splendid capitalization
Of Italy's art, and that similar condi-

opinion that this country could learn
in that respect from foreign countries

Senator Sutherland Of Utah, who has

Penniless Man Jailed for 10 Months
Without Enough Evidence for Trial

Virgil Whitman, a miner "a
years old, broken in health and
prematurely gray, is pitiful
product of the laws delay. After
10 months confinement in jail in
Los Angeles on federal charge
of smuggling a horse across the
border from Mexico, he was re-
leased recently, without trial, be-
cause there was not sufficient evil
dence against him.
He left jail penniless to walk
to the Mexican border to his
friends, but had scarcely got
good breath of fresh air before
he was ''vagged" for travelling on
a public highway without funds.
Whitman refused to pleao
guilty, so was placed in the Los
Angeles county jail to await trial.
His plight touched the other pris-
oners, who took up collection of
$5.45 in nickels and dimes for
him to return to his friends on,
and, through efforts of the Los
Angeles Record, he was released.

CEN.E.D. GRANT
SUDDENLY
DIES

(By United Press Leased Wire. }
NEW YORK, April 12.-Major
General Frederick Dent Grant,
commander of the eastern divis-
ion of the United States army
and son of General Ulysses s.
Grant, died here early today OF
heart failure. The end was per-
haps fastened by fear that a can
cerous growth on the tongue, for
which he was operated upon We'd
nesday night, was similar to the
affliction which killed his father.
General Grant awoke from his
sleep in a choking fit shortly
before midnight, and was unable
to articulate. A group of dis
tinguished physicians worked on
him for an hour, but their efforts
were useless.
Universal sorrow Is felt at this
death of the general, expressions
of coincidence pouring in upon
Mrs. Grant and the army authori-
ties.
Funeral arrangements have not
been completed, but it will be
held either Sunday or Monday in
charge of Captain Ulysses S.
Grant III, of Washington, son of
the dead general.
Major General Grant was born
in st. Louis, May 80, 1850. He
graduated from West Point in
1871 and rose rapidly In the
ranks Of the army. He was min
lister to Vienna under President
Harrison and police commissioner
of New York city in 1894. He
served in the Spanish war in the
Philippines and was promoted to
a major generalship in 1906. He
succeeded Major General Leonard
Wood as commander of the east
ern division when Wood was made
chief of staff.
