PLEA
AWAITING REPORT
State Department Unable to
Act Upon Canada's Demand
for Werner Horn.

The State Department has taken no ac-
ton in regard to the application of the
Canadian government for the extradition
Of Werner Horn, charged with attempt
ing to destroy the International bridge at
Vanceboro, for the reason that nothing
can be done by the department until it
receives the report of the United States
commissioner, whose duty it would be to
hear any charge made against Horn as
a basis for the demand for extradition.
The fact that Horn is now serving q
thirty-day sentence in Machias, for the
destruction Of property on the amer
cane side by the explosion or the oyna-
mite at the Canadian end OF the
bridge is supposed to account for the
deliberation with which the CANADIAN
officials are moving toward his extra
dition.
Warrant Of Arrest Probable.
IT is presumed, however, that within
few days some legal representa-
tive of the Canadian government, arm
Cd with a warrant issued by his gov
o-nment will make application TO the
n.,r.st United States commissioner TO
Machias for the surrender OF 'ne pI
oner. in accordance with tne .nnt

ADMIRAL JELL|COE
BRITISH NAVY IDOL
Is Called "HelI-Fire Jack" by
Sailors, Who Adore
Him.
MAN OF VERY FEW WORDS,
EARNEST, BUT NOT SEVERE
Spotted by His Chief When a
Youngster, He Has Sustained
His Family Reputation.
,coDvr,sht. 1915. by Herber, oorey9

Copyright, 1919. by derDert OofeS'
LONDON, January 24.-Is it a lower
deck paradox-or lower deck pene-
tration-which leads the British sailor
to call Admiral Sir John Jellicoe Hell
Fire JACKIE Because If he is that sort
of a jack he doesn't look 1t. he Is
rather undersized man of fifty-hve his
ewes are luminous, and earnest rather
than severe His lips are apt TO oe
pursed tightly. He has a way ABOUT
him that might almost be called pr1m.
II he were not an admiral stranger
would think him a rather successful
,awver-the sort of lawyer who
would handle the real estate business
for maiden aunts, and handle 1t well.
rr he were a doctor he would be the
sort Of doctor to which rich and fasn-
ionable families would gravitate. No.
he certainly doesn't look that hell-fire
part.
Knack Of Getting There.
He doesn't talk it. either. Admiral
Jellicoe doesn't raise his voice no mat
ter what happens. He doesn't swear
or, at least, he only swears as much as
is necessary. He doesn't tear err1ng
people apart by his words of criticism
He never places emphasis anywhere.
But he apparently has the knack OF
getting there, anyhow. There Is story
that "Jacky" Fisher-twice the nrst
sea lord-happened to be watching Jel-
licoe when the latter was a fledgling
lieutenant, in command of gun crew
Jellicoe was training his crew to take
part in a fleet competition when the
drill was over Jellicoe spoke to them:
Excellent" said he. with not so much
an appearance of warmth as candle
like glow of geniality through the
mica doors of his disposition. Excel
lent. l am sure you will win"
Made His Crew Win.
Fisher is the sort who pulls the
sun out of the skies to furnish him
metaphors On occasion he goes di
rectly south for appropriate figures
of speech. His words come out SO hot
they sizzle. He looked at this mild, re-
served young lieutenant with interest.
He saw the gun crew were smiling and
pleased. He asked the gun pointer:
DO you think you'll win?"
Yes, SIR" said that worthy, saluting.
Lieut.. Jellicoe says so. SIR
They did win-and Fishers interest
grew-and he helped that young man
Jellicoe along. But the point to be
made is that Jellicoe had inspired that
gun crew with absolute confidence.
Perhaps there were other officers they
liked better. But this little chap con-
trolled them, body and mind. When he
told them they would win they went
out and won. They knew he was right

nouncement today of Andrew I. Hickey.

Association. He declared it would be
impracticable to get the details Of the

date first set for inaugurating the

All this morning Mr.. Hickey was be-
sieged by telephone and personal call
ers who are interested in the service
and want to become affiliated with this
mutual benefit association. for every
one who puts an auto into the service
will receive the nickels derived from

the association. which amount will be
used in the administration of the af-
fairs of the lines.
ing out, and last night number OF
citizens from the territory just across
Ahe Aqueduct bridge called on Mr.
Hickey and asked that one of the lines
run in that territory. Mr.. Hickey de-
clared this probably could be arranged
by having a suburban line connect with
the proposed line to Georgetown. How
ever, at this time it is not proposed to
puissue transfers on any Of the lines.
Another Route Suggestion.
Another suggestion for a route was
laid out this morning from l4th street
northwest by way of Florida avenue to
the Union station. The first line is to
be inaugurated with ceremonies. and it
is the plan Of Mr.. Hickey to invite a
number of prominent government Off
cials to make the first trip Of the tttney
bus from Pennsylvania avenue and 18th
street to the Capitol and return.
Aside from the numerous OFFERS OF au-
to go into the service. Mr.
Hickey is in receipt Of a large number
of letters indorsing the service. and
wishing a success for II.
The details of the running schedules
have not been perfected, but Mr.. Hickey
declared they would be regulated ac-
cording to the public demand.
He declared he hoped to have minute
service for the government departments
to all parts of the city in the hour be-
tween 4:30 and $50 in the evening.
