NOME, ALASKA, MARCH 27, 1913.

The picture suggested by the latest telegrams/ received about the Dayton disaster last evening possibly sur passes the most awful ever produced by pen or brush.
 First we see a waste of waters four miles wide carrying on their surface the ruins of countless homes. 0n the face of the flood are uprooted trees and the carcasses of animals. Stand ing in various directions are houses whose walls still resist the demon iacal fury of the element, and in the midst of all there is a great city from whose roofs devouring flames and dense smoke are rising over the des- olation.
 With the lurid light of the confla- grations as q back ground we can see human figures struggling from house top to house top as they flee before an awful fate. Around them is an inferno whose flames enwrap them as the flames of hell might play with demoniacal triumph around lost souls, Below where streets ran are now death laden guTfs of murky water that have choked out the lives of .hcir brothers and sisters.
 Splitting the roar of the flames are shrieks of terror and appeal to the heaven which seems to have surrend- ered itS Oup to tho furv of tho fur;oc

wealthy Porto Rican planter, on a
charge preferred by Miss Mary Easter

tionaI turn in Criminal Court, No. 1:
shortly before noon today when il was
announced that the young man was
married yesterday at Rockville to the
girl he is alleged to have betrayed
Assistant Prosecutor S. McComas
Hawken made the charge in open court
that in his opinion young Rivera was
"secreting the complaining witness" He
referred to the Rockville marriage and
declared it was his belief that the cere-
mony was performed In an attempt to
thwart justice. He demanded Of coun-
sci for the Porto Rican to know the
whereabouts of the girl
Justice Stafford queried Attorney
William f.. Ambrose, but the latter
said he had withdrawn from the case.

represented Rivera, but professed ig-
norance of the whereabouts Of the

was taken to the office of the United
States Attorney. 1t was found that
the young woman was unwilling to
testify against Rivera. Presumably
on the advice of counsel, she assert
ed that she would stand on her legal
right.
Inasmuch as the law provides that a
wife may testify against her husband
but cannot be compelled to do so. the
Government prosecutorcs were placed in
a quandary. Prosecutor Hawken declared
that the validity of the marriage would
be confirmed before the Government
took any action and In any event the
case would not be dismissed

duct himself properly toward his bride

CONSUMP PT|VES ARE
EAGER TO TRY CURE
DR.. Friedman Is Besieged in
New York Hotel by Victims
Seeking New Life.

NEW YORK. Feb. 26.-The revolving
doors of the WaIdorf-Astoriat turned on
more tuberculosis sufferers in a few
hours today than possibly ever went in
to and out of the famous hostelry in all
its existence.
The big hotel was the mecca of the
sufferers because 1t housed a blonde
young German, DIR. Friedrich Franz
Friedman. the> Berlin scientist, who
came here aboard the Kron Prinzessin
Cecelie. and brought with him what
he asserts Is cure for tuberculosis in
every form and stage except the unmis-
takably hopeless cases.
Culture Not Death Cure.
My culture is not a cure for death. y
the young doctor explained In his Eng.
lish. The fame of the Berlin scientis,
grew amazingly over night, when it be-
came known that he refused Banker
Finlay's offer of $1,8OO,000 for proof that
his cure is genuine
The Government was the first to well
come DIR. Friedman to America. The
first man of the revenue cutter that
went down the bay to meet the liner
was DR.. Milton II. Foster, of the United
States Public Health and Marine Hos
pital Service. He was the personal rep
hesentative of the surgeon general. He
at once asked DR.. Friedman II he would
submit his cure to the Government for
a test, and the German unhesitatingly
accepted the proposition. Details Of the
experiment were left to a conference
that DR.. Friedman will hold tomorrow
morning at the Waldorf with a labora-
tory man Of the Marine Hospital.
Native of Berlin.
DR.. Friedman Is thirty-six years old
and native of Berlin. At precocious
age he was graduated from the Uni
versity of Frieburg. and later from the
University Of Berlin, being awarded
signal honor for work in tuberculosis
researches. Thanked on either hand by
Hundt and DR.. Arthur Charles Henry
Friedman, his brother, of Colorado
Springs, the young scientist and self
styled benefactor of the human race to-
day was prepared to meet all comers
Tuberculosis can be cured he said.
II have cured It, am still curing il.
Bnt cure Is q perilous word. In per-
haps 1000 of the 1.S0o Or 1000 cases that
have treated in two years. the cure
has been complete, but / never say /
