With the examinations yesterday
the first call is nearly exhausted. but
there are many who did not answer

the past week, and have not vet done
so, are examined today, they will be
summarily dealt with, as provided in
the law governing the prosecution of

NEGROES BURY
BABY IN YARD
is CHAR CED
Newborn Babe Buried in
Back Yard-Police Claim
They Have the Proof.
DOCTOR AND OTHERS
ARE IMPLICATED
Discovery Made Sunday
When Incomplete Certif-
cate Of Death Presented.

Frank Watson, colored, 81 years
of age, residing at oJs North F
street; NJ. c. Bennett, colored, 81
years of age, a doctor sand druggist,
residing at 2O8 North Reus street;
Ella Mason, colored, in the county
Jail on the charge of bigamy; and
Cora Askew, colored, Is years of age,
and unmarried, according to reports
on file at the police station will have
to clear up the circumstances sur
rounding the alleged burial of
the new born babe OF the Askew girl
last Wednesday, or they vii! face
grave charges.
The deed, it is said, was perpetrated
IN the back yard of the premises of
614 North + street, and the Mason
woman mentions the baby's crying,
which if true, clearly establishes that
it was alive shortly before burial.
Watson, who is said to have dug
the grave and placed the body of the
child therein, was arrested as dan
gerous and suspicious character; Ben
store in the western part of the city,
was dlSO arrested dS 4 dangerous
and suspicious charac uer, and his
bond, which was placed at $500, was
made later in the day and he was re-
leased from custody; Ella Mason,
who, as stated, is in the county Jail,
will be connected with the case to-
day; and even the mother of the child,
when she is able to get up, may face
a serious charge, although last night
it was doubtful whether or not she
was concerned in the proceedings.
1t is the claim of the police that
the child was born last Wednesday,
was buried, and exhumed and offered
for burial again Sunday to avert sus-
picion. The negro physician, it is said,
was in attendance, and when an in
complete certificate of death was pre-,
sented to the undertaken, attention of
the police department was called into
the case and the arrests followed. The
police are strong in their assertions
that the body had been under the
ground for several days, as evidence
to this effect was said to have been
discovered.

Charles Spencer Chaplin. more IA
miliarly known as Charlie Chaplin.

medlan, Stacker" from the British
army?
The Weekly Dispatch, of London,
owned by Lord Northcliffe, England's
foremost newspaper editor and chief
of the British mission to the United
States, asserts in an editorial that
he is.
Chaplin in an interview in reply to
the editorial denies the charge and
declares he is ready to answer his
country's call when it comes and that
meanwhile he is doing his bit" by
investing a fortune in war bonds.
The British Embassy in Washing
ton says Chaplin is not a Stacker"
and that ought to settle it. The en-
bassy considers Chaplin has done his
bit for the present by subscribing to
the British and American war loans
and the American Red Cross.
Lord Northcliffe's paper calls on
the comedian to do his bit by join
ing the colors.
Chaplin says it is none of Lord
Northcliffe's business and intimates
that the attack on him by Northcliffe's
newspaper grows out of his (Chap-
lin's) action in compelling the Eng
lish nobleman's newspapers to stop
publishing an unauthorized autobiog-
raphy which wa very personal and
asserted among other things that
Chaplin's father had beaten his
mother
81 am ready and willing to answer
the call of my country to serve in
any branch of the military service
or at whatever post the national
authorities might consider l can do
the most good" said Chaplin. But,
like thousands of other Britishers, I
am awaiting orders from the British
embassy here.
"When the official notice comes, I
will give up my contracts and my
work in this country, and will wear
the khaki of the army, the blue of
the navy, or any other uniform desig-
mated. So far have not received
that call.
Meanwhile I have invested a quar-
ter OF million dollars IN the war
activities of America and England in
the loans to carry on the struggle
and have aided in subscribing to the
humanitarian work of the Red Cross.
But if the English government con-
cludes 7 am needed or might be more
valuable to it on the firing line, then
l will do my duty"
The comedian then took a few
verbal hot shots at Northcliffe, stat
ing it was none of the editors busi-
ness what he is doing and then ex-
planned what he believed was back Of
Northcliffe's attack on him.
''At one time Northcliffe assumed
an entirely different attitude towards
me and one incident that occurred is
probably responsible for his change
towards me-" continued Chaplin. His
papers began printing an unauthor-
lied autobiography of me. In one
article the author became so personal
