horror at the system of forcible feeding.
will remain Indifferent when they learn

Death Of ]. P. Morgan
Not to Affect Money
Legislation, It Is Said

That the death CT ]. Pierpont Morgan
will have no effect or legislation look
ing to the breaking up of the Money
trust is the opinion expressed by Sen
ator Owen, chairman of the Senate
Banking and Currency Committee.
Senator Owen said the death of Mr..
Iorgan would not make legislation ON
, This subject easier or harder. He
pointed out that Mr.. Morgan left a
corps OF trained associates and that his
IDEAS would be carried out by them. He
said no financial disturbance would re-
suit from death of Mr.. Morgan.
High tribute was paid to j. Pierpont
Morgan by Assistant Secretary of State
Adee when he learned of the financier's s
death yesterday.
Il regard Mr.. Morgan as one of the
greatest benefactors this country has
ever known" said Secretary Adee.
He did much to keep up the good
name and credit Of the United States
abroad and was condemned for many
good things which he did.
The entire world has benefited by his
organization of economical working
conditions and in his death We have lost
one of our most able international cap
italists."

AIDS PLAN TO DIVERT
CURRENTS OF OCEAN
Congressman Calder Will Urge
Investigation Of System to
Sidetrack Icebergs.

Congressman Calder Of New York ex-
poets TO urge strongly in this Congress
his bill for a Labrador current and gulf
stream commission. The object of the
commission desired by Mr.. Calder is
out the striking and remarkable project
advocated by Carroll l.. Riker, of
Brooklyn, to construct a jetty or OBJ
struction on the Grand Banks of New
foundland for the purpose of DETECTING
from the east coast of Canada and the
United States the icy waters of the
friSid labrador current which sweeps
down across the Grand Banks from the
Arctic regions and tends TO nullify the
effects of the warm gulf stream
which moves northward from the re-
gion of the Gulf of Mexico.
Amazing as is this project, which was
conceived by Mr.. Riker, there is a
strong scientific demand for an inves-
tigation. Mr. Calder has become deep
ly impressed with the wisdom of an In
vestisation. lie has sent a letter of in
universities and colleges in the United
States and in the replies received there
10 by far the greater proportion have
favored the bill. Colonel Goethals,
DulIUeF Oh fdndfHd Cdtldi, is one VI
those who believe the plan of Mr.. Riker
merits an inquiry by scientific men.

According to Riker. the proposed jetty
would be comparatively simple and
easy of construction in the shallow

Martha Washington Will
In Morgan's S Collection

The will of Martha Washington, sup
posed to have been destroyed at Fairfax X
Courthouse by raiding Federal troopers
at the outbreak of the civil war re-
poees safely in the historical collection
OF the late ]. P:erpont Morgan.
The existence of the will in Mr.. Nor
gan's collection was discovered by Jo-
s.ph I. Keefer, a Washington historian,
Who for many years conducted a search
for the document.
Troopers raided the old Virginia court
cuse soon after opening of hostiIitIes
and, dragging out valuable papers, set
fire 10 them. After this raid the
Martha Washington will could never be
found. and this led to the supposition
that ID had been burned.
Mr.. Keefer said today that he hoped
tie executors of the estate would re-
store the will 10 the courthouse where
f. had been deposited for safe-keeping.
