BRITISH CONSUL HERE
SOON TO BE RELIEVED
Sir Wilfred Powell to Be Sue
ceeded by Galveston Consul.
Reason Withheld

Friends Of Sir wilfred Powell, British
Consul General in Philadelphia for many
years, expressed regret today when It
was learned he is to be relieved from
duty at the local consulate, at 7th and
Pine streets. No announcement was
made as to the reason or the change,
and no announcement was made as to
whether or not Sir wilfred would be ad-
vanced to a higher post or would retire
from the consular service.
He is to be succeeded here by Charles
A. s. Perceval British Consul at CAL
weston, Tex, who investigated the death
OF James Benton, the Englishman who
was killed by Villa officers at Chihuahua
II was this case which caused interna-
tional discussion. and which for a time
threatened to cause serious break be-
tween the United States and Mexico.
Official word that one son, Gareth
Henry Mansell Powell, had been killed
while fighting at Ypres and the fact that
another son, Wilfred Mansell Powell, and
a daughter Miss Mary Lynette Powell.
are both at the front, friends of Sir Will
fred believe, may have led him to ask
to be relieved so that he could return
to England and be nearer to the war
zone. The latter son is a graduate of
Haverford College, and is now serving
as lieutenant. The daughter is a grad
uate of the University Hospital, and is
nursing wounded at the>front.

JURY FREES AUTOIST
WHO KILLED BOY
Thomas A. McDermott, Phila-
delphian, Acquitted in Della
ware County Court

MEDIA, Pa, oct. is.-Thomas A. Nc
Dermott. Of SSH Spruce street. Philadel-
phia, was acquitted In court here this
afternoon OF charge OF manslaughter
preferred against him for the killing Of
Louis Nolan, the 6-year-old son OF Frank
Nolan, OF Media. on the evening Of July
H. The boy was struck by McDermotts =
automobile in front OF his home and died
in the Media Hospital three days later.
The State pressed charge of invol-
untary manslaughter, and attempted to
prove that the car was driven at n rapid,
reckless speed along State street, and
that the law was violated by passing n
standing trolley car from which passen-
gers were alightng. McDermott testified
that the car was still running when he
passed II and that the boy ran across the
street from the opposite side to that on
which the automobile was running
He said the boy ran almost to the curb
and then turned and ran back. At the
trolley track the boy stopped and looked
at the car and then ran parallel to the
machine for n few feet. When the car
was about eight feet from him he turned
and ran directly into Il.
He was struck by the mud guard and
knocked down. McDermott picked him
up and took him to the Media Hospital,
a short distance away.
Members of the Nolan family seemed
very reluctant to testify against McDer-
mott, and Miss Kate Nolan, a sister of
the boys father, was witness for the
defense. Her testimony corroborated that
of McDermott. She testified, as did
Frank Nolan. the father, that McDermott
acted the part OF a gentleman through
out the entire affair.

Financial Worry

Louis Havener, a salesman for the Bel
mont Iron Company, committed suicide
at his home, 1913 South SD street, today.
His wife and children were asleep in the
next room when the noise of a shot
awakened them. Rushing TO her hus-
bands side, Mrs. Havener discovered him
lying on the floor, bullet through his
right temple and the revolver in his hand.
Discouragement over financial losses
is said to have been responsible for a
nervous condition that led Havener to
commit suicide this morning. That these
losses, however had no connection with
his affairs at the Belmont Company was
vouched for by representatives. Havener.
1t was said, was one of the most efficient
salesinen. and there have been no irregu-
larities In his dealings.
DR.. r. C. Parrish, 5301 Chester avenue
