ThomasviIIe Coroner's Jury Con-
fronted by Battling Array of
Facts Applicable to Either
Murder or Suicide Theories.
Fiance Tells Of Talented Young
Woman's Inquiry About Pistol.
Others Describe Her Fits of
Despondency-Suspect Freed.

BROWNSVILLE, Oct. 1S.-A be-
wildered Coroners jury in the case
Of Miss Dorothy Haug. whose body
was found Monday, the skull shat
tered by a bullet, is but one token Of
the deep mystery that still surrounds
the girls death.
There is nothing more tangible than
fairly Demonstrated theories, some
pointing to suicide, others to murder
Most plausible of the theories is that
Of suicide. Miss Haug was known to
have been Gespondent, sometimes
lapsing into fits OF gloom. during
watch she threatened se,f-destruction,
and rallied at the hopelessness of liv-
ing
The most pathetic note of the trag-
edy was sounded yesterday when
Owen Baxter Of Dothan, Ala, sent a
frantic telegram to the family Of Miss
Haug in Naldosta, inquiring as to
her death. Baxter and Miss Haug
We're engaged, he said and ne had
been pressing her for some time TO
consent to an early marriage Bax-
ter had been an ardent Uooer.

BANKER SAYS CURRENCY
BILL WOULD CUT CREDIT
CAPACITY $450.0o0, 900

The credit capacity of the United
States will be reduced S450OOO,O0O under
the terms of the administration currency
bill, according to William H Barry, of
Philadelphia, who appeared before the
Senate Banking and Currency Commit
tee yesterday.
He declared that the bill would not
improve present conditions. would be OF
no advantage to the national banks
would contract general credit. and would
reduce from l2.6 per cent to 80 per cent
the reserve requirements of banks. He
said this was dangerous in view of the
fact that three panics have occurred in
a generation under the higher reserve
figure
William L. Ingie, vice president of the
Merchants and Mechanics Bank, of Bal.
timore, also addressed the committee on
the bill.

currency bill so as to allow further ex-

PUBLIC SCHOOL PLAN
: FOR Blind OPPOSED
Workers Association Believes Children
Should Be Sent to Maryland
Institution.
HEARING ON SUBJECT MONDAY

Vigorous disapproval of the proposal to
have the blind children of the city edu-
Gated in the public schools. instead of the
Maryland School for the Blind, was
voiced at the meeting of the District of
Columbia Association or Workers for the
Blind at the Library of Congress last
night.
Resolutions indorsing the rejection OF
the proposal by the associations directors
several nights ago were passed, as were
resolutions to have the matter vigorously
presented to the District Commissioners
when a hearing is granted on the subject
Monday morning at the Municipal Build
ing
Members of the association who ad-
dressed the meeting said it would be
a mistake to take the blind children
away from the Maryland institution and
place them IN the public schools. They
declared that the children could not
possibly be cared for adequately in the
city's public schools.
Officers of the association made it
known that the organization would urge
placing the authority to send blind chill
dreh-to the Maryland school under the
Board of Education, instead of the Board
of Charities. Under the present sys-
TEN. the speakers pointed out, the blind
who wish to go to the Maryland institu-
tion must take a pauper oath after hav-
ing the matter supervised by the Board
of Charities. The children could be re-
lieved of this embarrassment, the asso-
citation declares, by having the matter
of sending them to the Maryland school
placed in the hands of the Board of Edu-
cation.
