GENERAL DURYEA is
SLAIN BY MAD SON
Prisoner Talks Incoherently and for
Some Time Had Been Acting
Strangely.

New York, May 6--While suffering
from mental delusions Chester Duryea,
forty-three, shot and killed his father,
Hiram Duryea, millionaire starch
manufacturer, at 1870 o'clock Tues
day morning, in their splendid home
at 100 Eighty-fifth street, Bay Ridge
The father was eighty-one years old.
Since 1909 Chester Duryea has been
watched intermittently by nurses be-
cause of his peculiarities. but at no
time was he regarded as dangerous.
In June, 1909, he created a scene when
a nurse attempted to remove him to a
sanitarium for mental treatment, He
was later declared sane by physicians.
The Staying of General Duryea was
dramatic. He was asleep on an open
porch on the second floor of the home
when he stole cautiously upon him.
The son was armed with high-pow-
cred rife and revolver Of large cali
Der. Whether Chester awoke his
father before firing is not known, but
servants were suddenly aroused by
hearing seven shots ring out.
The son had first fired several shots
from the revolver into the body OF his
father and then sent two or three bull
lets from the rifle.
The sleeping house was aroused in
an instant. Frightened servants
rushed to the sleeping porch and
found Chester, wild-eyed and threaten
ing. They Gained him, took the
weapons from him and led him to his
bedroom while awaiting the arrival OF
Iolice from the Fort Hamilton station.
The son 1nade no resistance when
Lieuteant Lake and a squad OF men
placed him under arrest.
why did you kill your father?'
asked Lieutenant Lake.
II was justified in doing So" said
the son.
What justification had you; what
had your father done?"
ooh, / was justified" retorted the
son, who then began to talk incoher-
emily. He could give no valid account
of his actions, and there was every in
dication that he was mentally ire
sponsible.

no permanent good.

are all gone and she is happy little
woman enjoying life as people

BIG LINER BURNED AT SEA.
Ocean Liner Afire OFF Sable island,
According to Wireless.

Halifax, N. s., May Ocean liners
are steaming to the rescue of steam
ship burning at sea to the south of
Sable island. The identity of the
doomed liner has not been learned
here. Wireless calls to the Seydlitz,
whose operator first reported the ocean
tragedy. have failed to bring any re.
spouse. A third message from the
Seydlitz stated that the burning steam
er could not be identified at the time
the message was sent out. The radio
gram added: Flames and smoke
belching from the holds. No sign of
life can be seen. There are no ships
boats in the vicinity This caused the
belief to arise that all the passengers
and crew who were on the liner had
escaped. None of the first three dis
patches from the Seydlitz gave her ex-
act location.

ness to leave the country because Of
his business interests
Although Mr.. Olney is seventy-eight
years old, he Is active, and has had a

the board has been the most vital
step in the operation of the new cur

tire system will be in full swing, al
though there are some transitions
which will occupy a greater time.
