MYSTERIOUS ASSASSIN
KILLS RICH PUBLISHER

CLEVELAND, Ohio. July 10
Daniel kaber, a wealthy publisher,
living in Lakewood. died this after
noon following a mysterious, muir
derous attack early this morning in
his home.
Kaber. who has been bedridden for
several months, was set upon while
asleep and stabbed fifteen times. The
unknown assailant escaped, leaving a
homemade dagger, a stained cotton
glove and a razor as clues.
kaber furnished police with two clues
before death sealed his lips, it was
learned tonight.
As he sank into Inconsistencies for
the last time. kaber whispered to Chief
Christensen of the Lakewood police the
name of a person whom he said EN-
gineered the plot to kill me-"
The victim then said he had bitten
the finger OF the assassin.
Look for man whose finger is near
ly bitten or he said.
Kaber was in the printing and pub
fishing business with his father.
A statement by Kaber before he
lapsed into Inconsistencies that his
sssailant looked like a distant rela-
tive caused police to detain the i-ela-
tive for examination, but it was later
announced he had practically estab-
lished an alibi. Police believe the
cotton glove was worn to prevent
betrayal of finger prints of the as
sailant. who leaped twenty feet
from a secondstory window in es-
Gaping. The attack was made while
the other occupants of the Rouse
were aSfeep. Mrs. Kaber, who for
merly was Mrs. Thomas McArdle of
Chicago, was visiting a sister out of
town last night. She married Kaber
eleven years ago.

By the Associated Press.

HAVANA, Cuba, July 19.-Senor
Ignacic Bravo Betancourt represen-
tative in Cuba of Gen. Felix Diaz, the
Mexican rebel leader, in a statement
here today denied stories to the eff
feet that Gen. Diaz had issued a
proclamation in which he indicate ed
his intention of abandoning the cam
paign to overthrow the Carranza gov
eminent. He declared that Gen. Diaz
is pushing the campaign more ener-
getically than ever, as shown by
documents received from the latter's
headquarters confirming the capture
by the rebels of Puerto Angel, State
of Oaxaca, which the Carranza gov
eminent had declared closed to COM

statement says. that that port is in

Senior Betancourt also has received
official notification of the taki.sg of
Huamantla. Gen. Diaz further r. nn-ts
the capture of Tuxtepec by Gen.
Martinez, with $500 men. including a
number Of former federal officers. In
this action nine Carranza officers were
killed and thirty wounded, ten of
whom died while being conveyed to
Cordoba.
The statement concludes with the
declaration that Gen. Diaz' campaign
has not been as vigorous as had
been expected. owing to the excess
sive rainfall, the heaviest in twenty
years, which has resulted in the cav

to instruct her daughters in the
mystery of modern homemaking. That
constitutes in itself a masterpiece OF
diplomacy. And Frederick county
housewives are good houSekeeperS.
Their methods may be antiQuated. but
it must, be admitted that as house
keepers go they are up to and prob
ably above the average. This made the
launching of the work unusually
arduous, and for a time there was
considerable doubt whether or not it
would ever become effectively estab-
lished. But it has been. Mothers not
only sanction the interest their
daughters put I'M model homemaking,
but cooperate with the demonstra-
ton agent in bringing around the
stubborn. Altogether the work here
is most satisfactorily organized, as re-
suits are showing.
and a hotbed of conservatism, leads
the county in girls clubwork en-
couragement. An entire home has
been donated to the club of that Sec
ton. and 1t is being converted into a
model residence. Other clubs have
their pressure cookers, modern can
ners, etc, but none Of the others has
the distinction of having at its COM
mand an entire building for club pur-
poses. This club has set about fur
ntshings ard eduipping this residence
as no demonstrator could hope. Its
furnishings are not to be costly. but
they will be tastefully selected with
an eye for service and comfort. Not
long ago the appearance of home
demonstration agent at Yellow
Springs brought a round of abuse.
One time the agent was threatened
with bodily harm for what was
termed impertinence and meddling.
But this barrier Of objection has been
broken down. and Yellow Springs
promises to be among the front ranks
in the business Of turning out finished
women for homemaking.
Community Kitchen equipment,
donated by the state council Of de-
Tense, is being distributed among the
clubs that have established headQuar-
tiers. By fall Frederick county junior
homemakers should be able to make
themselves heard among the best Of

neutral governments to represent the

many pending ratification of the
peace treaty by the United States, so
that American business and commerce

the British and French. who already
have poured their consuls into the

Experts and observers just return
ed from Switzerland and Holland as
sert both countries are filled with
American statesmen and representa-
awaiting the lifting of the bars
against entering Germany, as without
consuls there is no one to wise pass
ports and business and travel remains
impossible.
In certain quarters here it is point
ed out that the Presidents action in
arbitrarily obtaining neutrals to rep
resent the United States consular
service in Germany is an adroit move
TO strengthen the necessity for rati-
fication of the treaty by the Senate
without attempting to make any
changes or amendments.
May Hurry Senate Action.
With American business beginning
TO get started in Germany and with
commerce flowing Germanward it
will be that much harder for the SEN
ate to keep the United States in a
state of war with Germany, as such
action would necessitate engaging
neutrals as consular agents and null
fly all business contracts and other
commercial ventures engaged in.

has decided to virtually double its
present storage capacity from about
1904 to 100000 barrels in order to

of preferred stock authorized $685.
900 worth has already been subscribed
and signed for, and new buildings
are to be erected without unneces-

H. F. Byrd. president Of the cor

holders believe the extensive apple
interests of the Winchester district
would be very seriously jeopardized
unless the cold storage facilities are
increased by the growers themselves.
This, he said, would assure storage
space to local growers.
