~ ii MHnila Bay, died it his home
aa flflg 81 lHst1fsg Six days Mrs. Dew
ey aud his son, George M, Dewey,
were with MIN when the end came.
The son was summoned from Chicago
Admiral Dewey was taken Ill last
thursday with what at first appeared
to be only slight cold. His condl-
ton rapidly became worse and on Sun
day the two navy surgeons In attend
ance, DIR. A. NJ Fauntleroy and DR.. Luz
Their Sheldon, Jr., announced that he
was in serious danger Of complete
breakdown because of his advanced
age. His illness was diagnosed as
arterio-scerosis. Since Monday no
hope had been held out for his recov-
cry.
Wide Anxiety Stirred.
Ever since 1t became known that
the admiral's life was In danger the
greatest concern over his condition
has been shown. Secretary Daniels
and the ranking officers of the navy
have kept in close touch with the prog
ress of his illness and both his home
and the navy department have been
kept busy answering Inquiries from
friends and admirers.
President Wilson has shown his
sympathy by sending huge punches of
flowers to the admiral's home both on
Monday and Tuesday, with request
that he be informed of any change in
the patients condition.
II Is understood that burial will be
in Arlington cemetery.
Great Funeral Pageant.
Because Of Admiral Dewey's rank,
the military funeral services will be
of the most impressive character.
During his residence In Washington
Admiral Dewey had lived very SIM
pie and retiring life. He was at mis-
office in the navy department regu-
larly every day.
Was Third Admiral.
Admiral Dewey was the tnlrd Om-
Ger who won the high post of admiral
of the United States navy.
His father was DR.. julius Yemans
Dewey, of Montpelier, vt. His mother
was Mary Perrin, daughter of zecha-
riah Perrin of Gilead, Conn.
George Dewey was born at Mont
peller on December 20, 1887.
At the outbreak Of the Civil war
Dewey was twenty-three years old. He
was commissioned lieutenant, and
guided the Mississippi as Its executive
officer in Farragut's historic dash past
New Orleans and its forts.
He was not so successful at Port
Hudson. Farragut won through, but
Dewey and the Mississippi ran
aground under the guns of the forts
The ship was set afire and during the
transfer of the crew under fire the
young officer 'lived five years In an
hour"
T. r. Sends for Dewey.
After he had received his promotion
from captain to commodore in 1896
Dewey remained for another year as
president Of the board Of inspection
and survey. His rank now entitled
him to the command Of q squadron.

PERSHING READY TO LEAVE
De Facto Troops Start to Close In Be-
hind American Troops as They
Are Withdrawn.

Washington, Jan. 16.-The first
move toward the withdrawal of the
Pershing column from Mexico was
made. De facto troops started NOV
Ing In large numbers to occupy the ter
ritory where General Pershing's men
now are.
The administration will insist that
sufficient troops be ready to close
In behind the American column to
protect American interests.
Permitting the report of the move
ment of the CarranZistas to become
public Is the first official admission
that 1t is the immediate intention Of
the administration to bring the Per-
shing column back.
1t Is probable that Ambassador
Fletcher will be sent to Mexico City
before the troops are out of Mexico
to take up with General Carranza the
border patrol question, and the pro-
lection of American lives and prop
erty. The Mexican-American commits
sion was Formally dissolved and the
problem reverts back to the president.

4. K. THAW ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
IPttsbureher, Sought on New Charge,
Cuts Throat and Wrlsts-Ex-
pected to Recover.

Philadelphia, Jan. 12.-Harry Thaw,
wanted In New York t. answer to an
indictment that he kidnapped and
whipped Frederick Gump, Jr., Of Kan
ssas City, cut his throat In West Phila-
Idelphia on Thursday.
DIR. John Wanamaker, q police sur
;geon, said cursory examination Of
sThaw's wounds indicated he had fair
chance to recover. His wrists were
hacked several times and there were
two gashes In his throat.
Doctor Kirby confirmed Doctor Wan
samaker's statement that Thaw had a
fair chance for recovery. He said Thaw
was In semi-consclous condition and
highly nervous. The doctor said he
had not yet determined what instru-
sment Thaw used on himself, but pre-
sumed 1t was razor.
The attempt of Thaw to end his life
,aErsgs to a close q three-day search

kINGSLAND, N. J.
DISASTER AT DUPONT PLANT
Officials of New Jersey Concern Be-
lieve Explosion, Which Wrecked
Many Buildings, Was lncendiary--
Many Persons Homeless.

New York, Jan. 13.-Two men
lost their lives when two OF the pow
der Magazines of the Du Pont Powder
company at Haskell, N. j., blew up
ut $50 o'clock last night, and coupled
with this comes statement from ofti-
Gals Of the Canadian Car and Founs7
dry company that the fire and es,1los
sions AZ their plant Ia Kingslands MI
III sfs rlsafsdslys causing q les1 20
S1600O,0 GOO, probably were incendlarSi
The explosions at Haskell were Of
terrific force mad were felt for many
miles In all directions. The detona-
lions were followed almost immedi-
ately by a fire, which could be seen
as far away as Yonkers and at distant
points in New Jersey.
The Haskell plant covers several
acres and is one of the company's
largest.
Think Fire lncendiary.
A statement that the fire and ex-
blossoms which wrecked the plant at
Kingsland were possibly if not prob
ably of incendiary origin" was issued
here by the officials of the Canadian
company.
The total loss, 1t was stated, was
$16,O00000.. OF this total $10OOO,OO0
consists of shells and explosives
owned by the Russian government.
The rest was In destroyed property
of the Canadian Car and Foundry
company, of which half was covered
by insurance.
Until investigation Is completed no
further statement will be made as to
what evidences Of incendiarism have
been found, 1t was said by an officer
! of the company.
Reduce Danger to Minimum.
1t was explained that the danger
of fire or Of explosions from purely
accidental causes was reduced to a
minimum by the fact that no COM
pleted ordnance was on hand at the
plant.
When the hundreds of families
which fled from Kingsland after the
explosions began their return to their
homes today they entered a desolated
village. Many of the houses were SO
shell-riddled they were not tenable.
Many of those who ran for safety had
spent the night huddled uncomfort-
ably In churches and schools.
Decorations continued throughout
the day. Occasionally three-inch shells
exploded and frequently smaller ones,
and the police kept persons from en-
tering the danger zone. Thousands
of unexploded shells lay on the
ground.

MANN ACT HELD VALID
EVEN IN PRIVATE VICE
v. S. Supreme Court Aftirms White
Slave Conviction Of Can't
netti and Diuos.

Washington, Jan. 16.-Interpreting
the Mann white slave act, the Supreme
court decided that prosecutions under
the law for transporting women in In
terstate commerce are not limited to
commercialized vice, and include per-
sonal immoral escapades. Conviction
of F.. Drew Caminetti and Maury I.
Diggs Of Sacramento was affirmed.
The court was divided. The ma
jority opinion was given by Justice
Day. Chief Justice White and Justices
McKenna and Clarke dissented, JUS
tice McReynolds took no part in con-
sideration of the cases.
"The plain terms of the act must
take precedence over the designation
and the report that accompanied it to
congress-" said Justice Day. "It is
said 1t will open the door to blackmail,
but that Is to be considered by con"
gress. We think the power Of con-
gress to regulate transportation OF
passengers affords ample basis to ex-
ercise authority in the case Of this
statute"
Following Interpretation Of the
Mann act, the court also affirmed con-
viction of L. T. Hays of Alva, Okla.
Test cases regarded as decisive OF
about 800 railroad claims against the
government for approximately $780,
100000 additional compensation for
carrying the mails from 1907 to 1911
were decided today by the Supreme
court against the railroads. Appeals
of the Chicago & Alton and YaZoo 4
Mississippi railroads from rejection OF
test claims were dismissed.
The dissenting opinion filed by JUS
tice McKenna, which was not read
from the bench, held it was clearly the
intent of congress to reach only COM
mercialiZed vice.
The defendants contended that con-
gress never intended to include, with
classification as felonies, otfenses
which are misdemeanors in most
states, but aimed the law against per-
sons transporting women victims In
commercialized white slave traffic.
