CAPT. SCOTT LEFT
MESSAGE TO WORLD
PRAISED COMPANIONS AND ASK
ED THAT DEPENDENTS BE
PROVIDED FOR.

London. Feb. ll.-Grief and pride in
the simple narrative of high courage
endurance and sacrifice given in a
farewell message to the world by Capt.
Robert r. Scott, who, with four others
of his south pole party perished in
a blizzard after a successful dash to
the pole, are close competitors for
dominance in the feelings of the Bril-
ish public today.
1T is white, and not black, the
mourning we wear for those gallant
souls who have done and dared so
greatly" was the comment of a cabi-
net minister. The closing words Of
Scott's farewell epic were:
Had we lived / should have had a
tale To tell of my companions which
would have stirred the heart of every
Englishman. These rough notes, and
our dead bodies must tell the tale.
But surely, a great rich country like
ours will see that those who are de-
pendent upon us are properly provid-
ed for"
These words have had an electric
effect. Steps are on foot already to
respond to the appeal to the nation by
assuring a comfortable future for those
dependent on the men, who, awaiting
certain death, could still write that
they did not regret their journey.
Mrs. Scott is assured of a good pen
sion by the British government.
Flags in London were at half mast
today.

Washington. Feb. ll.-Supporters of
the webb bill, to prevent the shipment
of liquors into "dry" states, which
passed the Senate yesterday in place
OF the Sheppard Kenyon bill, found
today that through a parliamentary
error their long fight probably has
been futile as far as this session is
concerned. The bill. as 1t passed the
Senate, was Identical In provisions
with the House measure, but when IL
was substituted for the Sheppard
Kenyon bill i'm the Senate the number
of the Senate bill was allowed TO re-
main on the passed bill. This, ac-
cording to House parliamentarian
Crisp. makes the measure an entire
ly new one as far as the House is
concerned. II would have TO go to the
House judiciary committee and take
a regular place on the calendar. To
secure consideration of the Senate
bill on the floor of the House, another
special rule would be necessary.

"Chun Duck Soon is pretty WIS.,
Korean and in nay opinion he awaited
his chance last night and was assist
ed by an Oahu Railway train in secur-
ing his release from the heavy instru-

most impossible" was the suggestion
offered by one we'll yersed police of.
fetal today.
by laying the heavy iron bali across
the railway track, his body on the
outside and the iron within the rails,
a passing freight train at night would
come pretty near doing the business
of severing the chains. 1t is admit
ted that the method would be Oar
ing one to say the least. A man in
the position of a hunted criminal of
the Chun Duck Soon class, however,
would not stop at long chance on
gaining his liberty.
Chief of Detectives Arthur McDuf-
file, Deputy Kellett and force of a
dozen men spent the night in the Pa
lama cane fields with view of run
ming across the Korean who broke
jail yesterday. The field was gone
over as with a fine tooth comb. The

The belief was strong today that he
