TO Death
UNDER AUTOMOBILE
Henry T. Doughty Meets
Horrible Death After
Car Turtles
WAS ON WAY TO
VIRGINIA HOME

While driving along the State road
few miles below New Castle about
9 o'clock last evening in an automo-
bile bound for his home at Franklin
City, Va, Henry T. Doughty, aged
35 years, was caught under his over
turned machine and burned 20 death
What caused the fatal accident Will
in all probability. never be known, as
Mr. Doughty was alone at the time
he met his death.
The first known of the accident was
when Marshall Burris and George
Paxson, a crew of the Wilmington
and Southern Railway Company.
found the machine burning in the
road. The trolley crew, not thinking
any one was under the machine, pro-
ceeded on their way after sending
word of the burning auto to this city.
Police Captain Kane and several
patrolmen proceeded TO the scene OF
the accident and found Mr. Doughty's
remains under the machine.
At first il was not known who owned
the car or who the dead man was, but
license tag No. 52s4 Virginia, gave the
first clue. This was issued, TO Henry l..
Doughty. a dealer in oysters at Frank
lin CITY. Later il was learned that Mr..
Doughty had stopped at New Castle,
where his gasoline tanks were reiilled.
At the time Mr.. Doughty also purchased
five gallons of oil.
IL is thought that the Ford car own
ed by Mr.. Doughty turned turtle
while speeding down the road and
the gasoline ignited. When Police
Captain Kane arrived the machine
was twisted mass of wreckago and
under this the body of Mr. Doughty
was found. The lower limbs were
burned off and the body was almost
burned to a crisp.
Undertaken Clewell, of New Castle,
removed the remains to his place of
business. Mr.. Clewell also wired to
Franklin City and today he received
word stating that the father of the
dead man was on his way to New
Castle
c. H. Tickling, of the Gomery-
Schwartz Agency here, this morning
called at the police station and said
that Mr.. Doughty arrived here on
Wednesday in the car. He left the
car with the local agency with orders
to readjust the machinery, which was
done Mr.. Doughty then went to
Philadelphia by rail and returned
yesterday morning for the car to re-
sumo his journey home. AS the local
agency was closed yesterday, Mr.
Doughty went TO Mr. Ficklings
home saying he desired to leave. He
was given the car which at that time
carried but two gallons of gasoline
Mr.. Doughty left Wilmington at 3
o'clock. Although the accident did
not occur until about $50 or 3 o'clock.
il has not been learned where Mr.
Doughty spent the intervening time

What They MEAN

Former European Manager of the United
Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 27-(ll a. m.)-
Loss of the Bulwark does not disturb TO
any appreciable extent. the balance of
naval power, but it must be encouraging
to the Germans, that if British battle
ships can spontaneously destroy them
selves there will be new argument
for German irreconciliableness who favor
prolonging the war over an indefinite
time, on the chance that British sea
preponderance ultimately will be re-
duced to the German level by com
bination of luck, accident and submarine
attacks.
As far as is known the Bulwark is
the second British battleship destroyed,
but there may be more The fact that
the loss of the Audacious is still with
held from the British public indicates
that it is the policy of the government
to conceal every capital ship disaster,
whenever possible. The only reason the
loss of the Bulwark was admitted, is
without doubt, because of the public
character of the explosion made conceal
ment impossible.
The destruction Of the Bulwark has
occurred simultaneously with the arriv-
al in England of the American news
papers giving first information of the
Audacious catastrophe. The news is
now spreading by word throughout Eng
land, substantiated by American news
paper clippings which are the only
sources of information about their most
serious naval blow Englishmen possess.
/ Thousands of Englishmen will thus have
heard of the double disaster to the Au-
dacious and Bulwark simultaneously.
The result will not be encouragement
for the Englishman is a very stubborn
person in dangerous crises. But it may
serve TO bring to the surface every crit
icism of the government. The British
censorship has been used TO check ad-
verse comments on the ministry by
Withholding such news as the Audacious
catastrophe. A sense of patriotism has
also restrained any violent outbreaks
against the cabinet But there arc
smouldering flames of discomfort
throughout the United Kingdom with
the way the war is handled bv the re.
sponsible ministers. At any time this
may burst into flame, causing a govern
ment explosion.
Englishmen are feeling bitterly the
lack of individual exploits by their navy
and the gain by the Germans Of all sea
prestige of the war. They are loolxin,
for a victim. The resignation Of Prime,
, Louis of Battenberg served as a publi
sop, and since il followed the loss o
the Audacious by two days, was proba
! hly as a private government sop as well
But the sacrifice Of the Austrian bori
first sea lord has not served its pur
pose. Both the Chilean naval battle an,
the loss of the Bulwark have occurre,
since then.
A new victim may soon have to fol
low. A second individual may serve tn,
purpose temporarily. but if Britisl
naval losses continue at the presen
rate, without any compensating gain il
prestige the Asquith ministry mdoubt
edly will be in danger. EnglishmeI
have great faith in their ability t.
"muddlo through" a crisis. But they car
become relentless critics Of their owl
leaders irrespective of party, when ono,
they get the impression that the poll
ticians are not playing fair with th'
democracy.

WASHINGTON, Nov 27.-The Turk.
ish commander at Smyrna formally ex-
presses his very great regret that he
was Obliged" TO fire upon the launch
of the u. S. Cruiser Tennessee in Smyr-
ma harbor, the State Department an
nounced today. Ambassador Morganthau
communicated the commanders express
sion, given to him through the war min
lister, to this government in cable
gtam from Constantinople last night.
In explaining the incident to Ambassa-
dor Morgenthau, the Turkish minister
of war said it was necessary for the
Turkish officials to fire three shots of
warning when the Tenncssee's launch
approached. The commander of Smyr-
ma, Morgenthau reported, first ordered
two blank shots of warning fired.
"The Turkish sentinel after waiting
two minutes" Morgenthau said, was
Obliged TO fire the third shot in an
other direction from that of the launch
which latter shot was merely 10 prevent
the helmsman of the launch from holding
his course which would lead directly onto
the mines at the entrance of port and
to rescue him from very certain dan
ger. The commander of Smyrna ex.
presses very great regret that such an
obligation was presented to the sentinel
of the port which he attributes to the
indifference of the helsmsman Of thC

LONDON. Nov. 27. Secret inquiry
was started today into the blowing
up Of the battleship Bulwark OH
Sheerness yesterday when 500 officers
and men we're lost.
Naval experts are totally unable
TO explain the destruction Of the Bull
wark upon the theory that the ex-
plOslpn was accidental unless II was
caused by deteriOrated ammunition.
That such could be the cause, how
ever, Is considered most unlikely be-
cause Of the frequent tests made
aboard the ship and the fact that the
Bulwark's magazines were protected
by all the latest devices.
The spy and the submarine terrors
ran rampant In London today. The
contention Of the Admiralty that the
explosion was certainly internal has
by no means satisfied the public
Some Of the papers criticize the au-
thorities for the lack of vigilance
about government docks. AS all Lon
don has been wild upon the subiec
of spies for months, It is insistei
that German agents would have littl

ginning a final battle with their

very soon.

Mexico at the present time is more
tranquil than in a long time.

some State CUNNERS
Quarantine Off in Southern
Part of County Below
Canal Bridge
CATTLE DISEASE
Is BEING CHECKED

No new cases of hoof and mouth
disease having been reported in this
county for several days, the State
Live Stock Sanitary Board has de-
cided to lift the quarantine against
dogs in that section OF the county be-
low the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal, with the exception OF West
Dover and North Murderkill hundreds
in Kent county.
This announcement was hailed
with delight by gunners. as it meant
that dogs that had not been allowed
at large in the infected districts here
could be taken below the canal and
used in cunning Before hunters will
be allowed TO do this however. they
will have to secure permits from the
officials of the board here. These will
be examined by the guards on duty at

side the State will be examined by
the guards and they will be compell-
ed to fill out a certificate showing
their place of residence, destination
and the number of dogs with them.
The new notice follows:
"The State Live Stock Sanitary
Board held a special meeting at the

November 26, 1914, and had a full
discussion of the present conditions
with the United States officials.
"In order TO accommodate the
