San Francisco.-The spectacular

Beachy was completing his second

the fatal accident occurred. Having
previously electrified the crowd with
series of aerial somersaults, the in
trepid airman sought to add an add
tional thrill by making perpendicular
drops which featured his flights.
The accident was attributed to the
fact that Beachey entrusted his life
for the first time to new monoplane

HARRY THAW ACQUITTED;
BEGINS NEW FIGHT TO
KEEP OUT OF ASYLUM

New York.-Harrk K. Thaw was
acquitted March 13 of conspiracy in
escaping from the Matteawan asylum
August II, 1918, the charge upon
which he was brought back to New
York from New Hampshire. Roger
Thompson, Richard Butler, Eugene
Duffy and Thomas Flood, who assist.
ed him in his spectacular flight by
automobile from Matteawan to Can
ada, likewise were acquitted.
AS soon as the verdict was an
nounced, Thaw was given into the
custody of Sheriff Grifenhagen of
New York county. The four code
PENDANTS we're discharged.
A motion to have Thaw committed
to Matteawan asylum as an insane
person was made by Deputy Attor
ney General Cook Immediately after
the jury had rendered it verdict
This motion was combatted by
Thaw's counsel, who announced that
inasmuch as Thaw was brought here
ON the conspiracy charge and found
not guilty, he should be returned to
the state of New Hampshire as a
sane man.
Formal motion that he be so re
turned was then made by Thaw's
lawyers.
Justice Page announced that he
would hear arguments on this mo
ton soon. In the meantime, Thaw
was remanded to the Tombs.

MRS. ROCKEFELLER FUNERAL.
Final Burial Will Be Conducted
Later at Cleveland
Cen1eterv

Tarrytown, N. Y.-The funeral of
Mrs. Rockefeller, who died here
March 70, was held at the Pecan
tico Hills mansion Sunday, $3.50 p. m.
The service was simple one, at
tended by only relatives and a few
intimate friends of the family.
The Rev. DR.. Cornelius Woelfkin of
the Fifth Avenue Baptist church,
New York, officiated. Music was
supplied by the quartet and organist
from the church.
The coffin was banked with hun
dreds of flowers. kilograms of con-
dolence came from friends through
out the country.
Employees on the Pocantico Hills es-
tate and servants at the homestead at
tended the services in body. Many
persons made the journey from New
York in special railroad car.
The body of Mrs. Rockefeller was
not moved from the mansion Sunday
afternoon, Mr.. Rockefeller expressing
desire to postpone the ordeal as long
as might be. He has not yet decided
when or where the burial will take
place.
The body of Mrs. Rockefeller was
placed in the vault of John d. Arch
bold in Sleepy Hollow cemetery for
time, to be taken ultimately TO
Lakeview cemetery in Cleveland for
burial.

and an exceptionally large crowd was
attracted to see whether he would at
tempt the same breath-taking stunts
in the new machine that had made ia
nous himself and his trim little BIZ
plane.
On the first flight of the day every
thing worked properly, and all the
familiar evolutions were INDUCED
with the exception of the perpendicu-
lar drop. This Beachey had saved for
the final climax, and this proved too
much for the sturdy fabric of the
monoplane.
The machine was at an altitude OF
about 5000 feet when Beachey shut of
his power For several thousand feet
the machine dropped head-on for the
earth, and then the aviator grasped
his control levers to adjust the planes
for the graceful descent which char
acterized his previous flights.
At this instant the wings crumplec
like a collapsed umbrella, and the
aeroplane, turning over and over il
it's fall, plunged into San Francisco
bay, narrowly missing vessel lyins
at the government transport docks.

About Copper.

Copper sold in Germany not long ago
for $776 ton; the price in England
at the same time was 1921. For mill
tary purposes it is indispensable. In
combination with zinc or tin it enters
into the shell of every cartridge for
rifle or revolver or pistol, and into
the jacket of every bullet; it is the
chief material in every primer, and is
essential to the manufacture of ammu-
milton for much of the ordnance Cop
per wire is used for field telephones,
for winding dynamos. and for many
other electrical purposes. Before the
war Germany consumed annually $780,
600 tons, of which it produced only a
tenth.

American Commerce Hit.

Perhaps more displeasing to Of
ficials than any other part of the
British order, however, was its pro-
hibitions on American commerce con-
signed to neutral countries and sus-
pected of enemy destination. 1t is on
this point that the United States has
engaged in a voluminous correspond
ence ever since the outbreak of hos
tilities. 1t constitutes the chief
ground on which the United States
will insist on the freedom of its COM
merce from undue interference.
Officials were undecided as to the
details of the course that would be
pursued by the United States, but it
was thought in some quarters the best
policy for the present would be to
wait an enforcement OF the British or
der in specific cases, making each one
of these the basis for vigorous pro-
test. This was regarded as probable
because of the latitude which the
British order itself implies in cases of
cargoes plying between neutral ports

nation or origin.
