HELP FOR FAMILIES
OF D. C. GUARDSMEN
=
A Popular Fund Proposed and
Started With a Sub
scription.

To the Editor OF The Star:
Knowing many members of the Dis
trict of Columbia National Guard to be
men of families, or. possibly, the sup
port of a widowed mother with small
children, and remembering this as the
reason given by a number of young
men for not volunteering their services
to their country during the Spanish
American war, as they wished to do,
and fearing that some such dear ones
to them, left at home. may, at least
temporarily, suffer by being suddenly
deprived of this support while such
members are answering the Presidents
order to mobilize. I respectfully request
that you call for contributions to a
fund for the relief of these dependent
ones and herewith inclose SIS for said
purpose.
If the man at the front is assured
that his loved ones at home are being
properly provided for he will have an
easy mind and be better able to per-
form the duty to his country. for which
he has offered his services.
You need not take space in your
valued paper to publish this letter, but
1 sincerely hope you will accept my
suggestion to help those in need who
are giving up a loving son or husband
to answer the call to the colors and for
which duty he is proud to be the first
of our citizens to respond

Ex-Chief Yeoman, D. c. Naval Militia.

rector, but which has offices in san
Francisco. Provisional depots are es-
tablished on or near military reserva-
tions in these divisions. in order TO al
low the Red Cross units to follow army
forces more quickly. In event OF serl-
Gus trouble on the border the mountain
and Pacific divisions will take up the

Texas and New Mexico are in the
mountain division, and Nevada, Cali
fornia and Arizona are in the Pacific
division Adjacent states will supply
reserve forces for field work as need
ed and in turn other states in the
country will send help. The American

come under the command of the army
Medical Corps officers.

SHOT TO DEATH IN OFFICE.
Alabama Attorney Found Lifeless
Under Mysterious Circumstances.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala, June FL
Huntsville was reused to high pitch
of excitement late yesterday by the
news that H. S. Peasants, an attorney
of state wide reputation. had been
found shot to death in his office here,
leaving what purported to be note that
the act was caused by suspicion directed
against him in connection with the muir
der here last week of Probate Judge
w T. LAWYER The supposed suicide be-
came known shortly before 1t was
learned that Charles NJ. Nails, clerk of
the circuit court of Madison county. had
surrendered on warrant charging him
with completely in the murder of the
probate judge. Nails and D. d. Overton
both were sought on warrants in con-
nection with the murder.
The mystery surrounding the death
of Peasants was heightened by an an
nouncement by Mr.. Tate, who has had
charge of the murder investigation,
that at no time had any suspicion been
held by the officials toward Peasants.

Field and Hospital Work.

Equipment for field service and hos
pital work is not as yet at the dis
posal of the Red Cross, owing to the
fact that the organization has no store
houses, but enough money is on hand
for that purpose to buy within a short
time enough equipment for the first
force that may be sent to the border.
The society also expects to have gov
eminent storehouses put at it's dis
posal in event of serious trouble on
the border, in which it may store adj
Gen. Murray stated that in spite of
the fact the Red Cross has not the
necessary equipment for its work on
hand at present, it could be bought
hospitals before actual serious con-
flict.
Red Cross activities have been in
creased within the past few days and
officials are awaiting orders from
Secretary of the Navy, or both. for
service. Units for work in either
service will be sent to points indicated
by the respective department heads,
where they will INN ediately come up-
der the direct control of the officers in
command. After unit is sent out by
the society it becomes either a mill
tary or naval command. as the case
may be.
1t only has been within the past year
that the American Red Cross began
organizing for military work. From
the time of it's organization in 1905
until last year it was engaged in prac
tically only civilian relief work. The
war in Europe showed the need of a
military branch of the service, and last
December it was formed, with Col.
Jefferson R Kean of-the Medical Corps,
U. S. A, at the head Ernest P Bick-
nell is at the head of the present civil
ian relief branch.

A Special Tax Suggested.

To the Editor of The Star:
l want to indorse your editorial of
Monday on the subject of employers
and the Guardsmen," and I am writ
ing this to solicit your advocacy of a
step further. There is no reason in
justice why the National Guardsman
should suffer more than fair share
of the loss occasioned by his dropping
his ordinary occupation and going to
the front; nor does it seem fair that
his employer should be saddled with
the whole expense of making good the
salary he has been receiving. I there
fore ask you to consider. and, If
you approve. to advocate the collection
of a special tax on all salaries and
properties in the District of Columbia
for the purpose of making good the
difference between the wages paid
privates and commissioner officers

the men who are expected to go to the
front with the National Guard Of the

militia, has called a meeting of the
wives of the officers of Gen. Harvey s

1t may be started in the shortest pos

relief measures for the families of
those local militiamen who have been
left in need because of the call to the

John wanamaker's Example.

To the Editor of The Star:
In the Evening Sun of New York. is
sue of the 18th inst. appears the fol-
lowing:
The first act of John Wanamaker on
reaching his Office in Philadelphia this
morning was to announce that IL re-
Spouse to the call of the President to
the governors of the states to mobilize
the National Guard all the employees
in the Wanamaker Philadelphia and
New York stores who are members
OF the National Guard. and therefore
called into action for service on the
Mexican border. are free to prepare
themselves Immediately for their posts.
and that during their absence they will
receive full pay and will not lose oppor-
tunity for promotion by reason Of their
absence
Mr.. Wanamaker deserves great praise
for his patriotism. and further Is to be
highly commended for his business fore
sight in doing such a worthy act.
Let us hope that many Washington
firms and institutions all over the coun-
try, that cam afford it, will follow the

IS READY TO MEET
WAR EMERGENCY
Red Cross Prepared for Field
in Case of HostiIities
With Mexico.
NOW EQUIPPED TO SERVE
AN ARMY OF 100, 900 MEN
Statement of Strength and Condi-
ton Of Organization Made by
Gen. Arthur Murray.

The American Red Cross is prepared
Although no call has been issued for
the Red Cross to take the field for
possible Mexican service, the organiza-
tlon Is ready to meet any emergency
that may arise on the border, according
to statement made today by Mai
Gen. Arthur Murray. vice chairman of
the central committee. The Red Cross
has not reached the strength needed
for service for an army of 100000,
which is its present goal in the United
States. but Its efforts are so far adj
vanced that it can without trouble
serve an army of 100000 men and be
ready for the full quarter of a million
by the time they can be modified for
action.
Hospitals all over the country have
enrolled parts of their STATS in the
Red Cross, many of them contributing
whole units for base hospitals, which
require personnel of 225 doctors,
nurses and orderlies each. A number
of hospitals also have given field col
umn units, which consist of about six
doctors and between ten and twelve
orderlies and nurses each. Harvard
University has placed both a base hos
pital unit and field column unit at
the disposal of the Red Cross, and it
is hoped that other universities will
do similarly.

 The Belvidere, Captain Jochinsen, arrived in the roadstead yesterday afternoon from Siberia. The cap- tain said that they had tough time of it until they reached Petro- pavlosk. They called at Unalaska and took in the Aleutian islands be- fore calling at Petropavlosk, then trading along the Siberian coast points. There is no ice whatever along the Siberian coast, in this re- spect a strong contrast to former years and to conditions which h re prevail. On board the Belvidere IS Trader Swenson who represents his firm from Seattle. He stated that trading conditions varied, some places being good and others not so productive. He stated that the trial of Max Gottschalk would come about June 3, and that he would be tried in East Cape for selling liquor to Indians, an offense for which the maximum penalty is from three to four years. Max sent Swenson long letter telling of his woe begone condition and poor treatment, but Swenson said when he visited Gott- schalk he was fat as walrus ana looking the picture of well fed con tentment. Max was treated all right until coming down after his arrest to Petropavolsk he tried to make his getaway, and would have done so only for some Indians giving him away. The vice-Governor of whom Swenson spoke very finely, treated Max with extreme leniency, having his handcuffs removed and all other outwards marks of his being under arrest. It was while in this condi- tion that Gottschalk made his bold but ineffective bid for liberty.
