The suicide of Arthur L. Niles.
Jr,, the young Princeton graduate
and naval officer. who shot and kill
ed himself the day after he was
married to Dorothy Hathawam SUIT
ton, is still covered with mystery.
There was no explanation for any
of the peculiar circumstances sur
rounding the body's tragic death,
nor any reason assigned by his fam
lily. or the family of his bride-wid-
oW, for his decision to end his life
when he apparently had everything
to live for-youth, wealth and d
beautiful wife.
One of the strangest things abou.
the affair is the fact that the we'd
ding notice was put in the Sunday
newspapers at the order of the dead
boys father, although Mr.. Niles did
not inform the police Of the mar
riage when he was questioned about
his sons death. Yet the linking of
the wedding and the suicide might
never have been known had not the
father ordered the wedding notice
published.
From the attitude of the boys
family the day of his death, specu-
lation arose as to whether they
might not have been opposed to the
marriage. 1t was pointed ont tina

After every war there are side
lights thrown upon the crises of the
struggle. on the big events of the
campaigns, on the mistakes or vic
torious moves of generals and on the
parts played by statesmen or politi-
clans in shaping the nations course.
Sometimes regulations are destroyed.
Rarely, however, has man who
played So big role as did Field
Marshal French, for more than two
years commander of the British
forces in France, suffer such ignom-

publication of his book on the war.
In this book Marshal French prac-
tically accuses the Asquith govern

failures through neglect to furnish
munitions to him as he demanded or
to support him otherwise. Only
through the change in government
