cision on Impeachment

partment Of Justice here, said yester-
day no steps had yet been taken in

eight-page pamphlet. petitioning the
House of Representatives to impeach
Woodrow Wilson. The pamphlet, which
is being distributed all over the city,
is entitled "a Petition for the I'm
parchment of Woodrow Wilson, Pres-
dent Of the United States"
"The first steps," Chief Ofley said,
"must be taken by the prosecuting Of
fcers. If the United States District
Attorney decides that the pamphlet
constitutes violation of law, then it
will be time for us to act'
j. E. C. Donnelly, of 1854 East Thir-
ty-seventh Street, proprietor of the
shop where the pamphlet was printed,
still withholds the name of the man
who brought the copy to him. Without

Police Here to Use X-Rav
In Photographing Bombs
New Method Believed Safer and
Likely to Preserve Finger
Clews Against Anarchists

Anarchist bombs picked up here
after in New York will be examined
and photographed by X-ray appara-
tus, furnished by the United States
Bureau of Mines. This announce
ment was made yesterday by Assist
ant District Attorney korke, after
conference with detectives of the
bomb squad.
The police intend that when a per-
son receives bomb, Police Heal
quarters should be notified and the
explosive taken to room near the
quarters of the bomb squad, where an
examination will be made by meaps of
the X-ray. The police have realized
that where the Internal machines have
exploded or have been taken apart in
the usual way, all clews that might
lead to the arrest of the senders have
been destroyed. BY the new method
it is believed such evidence as is OBJ
tanned through finger prints may re-
suit in bringing forth information.
The bomb squad issued warning
yesterday against the circulation Of
hand grenades that are brought back
by the returning. soldiers. 1t was
shown that if these Instruments of
war came into the possession of
anarchists they could be loaded with
explosives and thus rendered danger

Hugo Reserves
Decisions i'm His
First Auto Cases
Secretary of State Sits as
Magistrate in New Method
of Dealing With Violators
of the State Highway Law

Sitting as a magistrate clothed with
judicial power to revoke licenses or
impose other suitable punishment,
Francis M. Hugo, Secretary Of State,
yesterday heard the cases Of seven
drivers of motor cars charged with
reckless driving, intoxication or both.
Decision in all cases, heard in the
Criminal Courts Building, was re-
served.
This plan for dealing with reckless
drivers was devised by the Legislature
on the theory that if the Secretary of
State has the right to grant licenses
he should have the right to revoke
them for good cause. The new motor
vehicle Ia provides that wherever the
operator Of an automobile is convicted
a third time for violating the speed
limit, driving a car while intoxicated,
for negligence in injuring a person,
or for fleeing without giving name.
address or car number, then the Sec
rotary of State shall have power, after
reviewing the circumstances. to revoke
the operators license.
= Mr.. Hugo pointed out yesterday that
no less than 1860 persons were killed
by motor vehicles in the state of New
York within the last year, half of these
casualties occurring in this city. Con-
ditions had reached a point, he said,
where something had to be done by
responsible officials to protect human
life. He suggested that the two best
ways to accomplish reforms were
through educational campaigns, and for
those that need more than this the
punishment of losing the right to drive
q car.
The men heard yesterday all had
been convicted of at least three vio-
lations. Among them was Frank R.
Waller, of 515 Fulton Street, whose
automobile, it was testified, rammed
that of Mortimer L. Reynolds on May
rs last. at Bushwick Avenue and De-
catur Street, Brooklyn. 1t was stated
that Waller was going forty miles an
hour at the time, that he had been
drunk, and that he had run down two
women on a previous occasion.
Other drivers heard on charges Of
reckless driving or intoxication were

LONDON, July 16.-Dr. Marion Phil
lips, addressing meeting of domestic
workers at the Y. W. c.. A. hall in Han
over Square, drew a disquieting pict-
ure of the future, Says "The London
Daily Express"
II foresee the time" she said, "when
domestic servans will be so strongly
organized that they will come out on
strike because some housemad has not
been allowed to smoke her cigarette
after dinner.
ut is no wonder that there is do
mestic servant problem" she added,
because directly woman begins to
think she cannot help wondering why
the conditions of life for the domestic
worker are SO entirely different from
the conditions Of life for those to
whom they give their services.
'Not only will many of those in lux
urious homes find it exceedingly diff
ficult, and indeed impossible, to do
the work of domestic servant, but
they will find it so unpleasant that
when put to the test they will pay al
most any price to get some one else
to do it for them"

Six-Word Will Invalid,
Says Testator's Mother
Signed by Two Men in His
Office After He Was Dead,
She Declares

The six-word will of Alexander
William Waters, of 228 Sterling Place,
Brooklyn, leaving all his property to
his negro housekeeper, Zulma Powell,
is invalid, Mrs. Elone dc Angels
Waters, the decedant's mother, said
yesterday.
She declared that she has learned
from her lawyer, William G. DALI, that
the will had been signed by the two
men in her sons office after he had
died.
"My lawyer tells me-" she said,
chat the men merely wanted to attest
that they had found the will lying on
my sons desk. According to the law,
as interpreted by my lawyer, this
makes the will worthless.
"But l do not want to deprive Miss
Powell of anything she is entitled to-"
she added. "If she was instrumental
in keeping my son alive and in max
ing his home as comfortable as pos
sible, perhaps she should receive a
large share of his estate"
Mrs. Waters said she lived at her
sons home until last February, when
she moved to 285 Empire Boulevard,
her present address, with her son,
Malcolm She said that her son was
not chronic invalid, as people might
be led to believe, but had suffered only
occasionally from toothache and

enty-six years old, does her own
housekeeping.

W7ILLIAM H. DUGAN, who holds
w responsible position with an oil
company in Maryland, pleaded guilty
yesterday in Queens County Court to
abandoning his wife and two children
in 1917, and was sentenced to the
penitentiary. He was arrested a week
ago at the grave of sister whose fun
eral he had come north to attend.
Judge Humphrey was informed that
three times Dugan's wife had had him
arrested for non-support and once had
yielded to the intercession of priest
and obtained his release from Jail, only
to have him desert her. She had to
work to support herself and her two
children.
"You are the most undesirable type
of citizen" said Judge Humphrey to
the prisoner. "You leave your children
to your wife to support. You would let
them starve before you would give
them any assistance"

Homemade Dagger, Razor
and Glove Left by Assail-
ant; Suspected Relative
Establishes an Alibi

CLEVELAND. July 1s.-Daniel Kaber,
forty five, wealthy publisher, of Lake
wood, died this afternoon following q
mysterious attack early this morning
in his home. Kaber, who had been
bedridden for several months, was set
upon while asleep and stabbed fifteen
times.
The assailant escaped, leaving q
homemade dagger, a stained cotton
glove and razor as clews.
A statement by Kaber, before he
}apsed into Inconsistencies, that his
assailant looked like distant relative
caused police to detain the relative
for examination, but it was said later
he virtually had established an alib.
Police believe the cotton glove was
worn to prevent betraying finger-prints
of the assailant, who leaped twenty
feet from second story window in
escaping. The attack was made while
the other occupants of the house were
asleep. Mrs. Kaber. who formerly was
Mrs. Thomas McArdle, of Chicago, was
