ginia Considered for
q. s. Con,n,issi0nersl,ip
From a staf Correspondent

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla, Feb. i9.-It
became known to-day that President
elect Harding has under consideration
the name of A. B.. White. of Parkers-
burg, w. Va, for the post Of Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue Mr. W..ite
has the unqualified support of Mr.. Har-
ding's close friend, Senator Davis
Elkins, of West Virginia.
In the estimation of Mr.. Harding, the
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue will
be the equal in responsibility of most
Cabinet officers, as he will be charged
with the enforcement of prohibition and
the collection of billions of dollars of
taxes. He will have TO make day-by-
day rulings that will determine
whether individuals are TO pay mil
lions of dollars in income taxes. There
is not an individual in the land who
is not affected by this office.
Mr.. White is former Governor of
West Virginia. At the last Senatorial
election he ran in the primaries against
Senator Howard Sutherland, who wag
successful. White played an impor-
tant part in the November election,
and Senator Elkins has told Mr.. Har-
ding that he was chiefly responsible
Tor placing the state in the Republican
column.
New-York tribune., 1921-02-20

Along about Q o'clock yesterday
morning Sergeant Patrick Brophy, OF
the West Tooth Street police station,
yawned and announced he was going up
stairs to take forty winks. He emptled
the refrigerator pan, put out the cat,
locked up and went up to the dormitory
on the top floor, where ne tumhled into
bed with feeling Of utter security.
At about the twenty-seventh wink
Sergeant Brophy caught his breath in
the middle of snore and held it. He
had a horrid conviction that he was not
alone in the dormitory, and he knew
the intruder couldn't be the cat. Even
a talented cat, such as that at the West
Tooth Street police station, can't open
locker in the dark and take out pair
of uniform trousers and it's too well
bred TO do it if it could.
"Hey!" demanded Sergeant Brophy,
who's there ?"
"It's Officer O'Brien.' was the reply
in reassuring tones. TITS all right"

Chinese Laundry Hold-Up
Pistols i'm Play
Prisoner Likely to Die
After Staging Thriller;
500 Finally Take Him

Things broke wrong for Jim Alexan-
der in Newark last night and trans
formed bad negro into mad cne. II
it hadn't been for the police Jim would
have ended his career on the yardarm
of lamp-post after a pistol battle in
the center of Newark, in which he
wounded patrolman severely. A stray
| bullet wounded 3 young woman slightly
AS it is, Jim may die of his injuries
When the crowd of 500 which he had
defied closed in on him at last Jim was
about the worst mauled negro north Of
the line run bg Mason and Dixon a
good many years ago He is prisoner
at the City Hospital.
If he RECEIVERS from his injuries,
which. it is thought. include fracture
of the skull, Jim probably never again
will hold up Chinese laundryman.
He doubtless is convinced that their
reactions are mysterious and unac-
countable. even though he never read
Bret Harte.
Chinese Laundryman Held Up
It was in Joe Lees laundry st 164
High Street that the trouble started.
Jim went in there about 7 p. m. and
stuck Joe up, just as anybody might
do, without thought Of consequences.
Joe seemed to take it in perfectly
normal way, too, at first.
1t wasn't until jim strolled out the
front door with Joe's $40 in his pocket
<ot ha iy> oil
that the yeasty East began to work in
Joe's Celestial soul. AS Jim was van
ishing jauntily out the front door,
Joe was slipping quietly out of the
back door with black, long barreled
Colt stuffed up his sleeve.
They emerged into High Street al
most together and at sight. of the big
negro, Joe lost all his furtiveness. He
yelled shrilly and loud that he had
been robbed and he fourished his re-
volver with abandon. But he did not
pull the trigger.
Patrolman Thomas E. Sullivan, who
lives in High Street, came out on the
run in his shirtsleeves. 1t was more
of procession than Jim had calculated
on leading up High Street, and he
started to shake it. The patrolman
and the Cinnamon quickened their pace
too, and the former, untrammeled by
Oriental caution, made generous use
of the revolver he carried .
Scores Join in Chase
The negro swung around as the bull
lets began to sing past his head and
took shot at Sullivan. 1t missed, but
it heightened the fugitive's lead. By
this time several score had Joined the
chase. and as it reached Orange Street
William Fink came out of his pawn
shop armed with revolver and the
avowed intention of shooting negro.
He tried hard, but he couldn't hit
Jim, who was one of the speediest tar
gets ever seen in Newark. The negro
turned up Essex Street, the thorough
fare behind him being now chockablock
with pursuers and came to halt in
front of hook and ladder company's S
house at Plane and Essex streets.
There were several shots left in bis
revolver and he sent them all whining
over the heads of the crowd. while he
got his breath and tried to think. He
hadn't fully succeeded in doing either
when he heard footsteps behind him

chimes which he asserts is 20 per cent
more efficient than those now in use.
With an old 25-horsepower engine of

Oehmichen, in roughly constructed
helicopter, has made the first actual
flights that have ever been made In
such machine. No other of the
hundreds Of helicopters that have
been built in the world has ever left

the finest and lightest materials and
the best of engines.
Oehmichen is credited with the dis
covery of many dynamic laws from a

that his success with the helicopter,

Typhus Spreads

land, N. Y, and 2 Deaths
i'm Pennsylvania; 53 More
Aliens Are Held Here

U. S. Officials in Row as
III ealth Service Rules
Against Immigrant Ban

The discovery Of seven new cases OF
what is believed to be typhus in Cort-
land, N. Y, and two deaths from the
disease in Lewis Run, near Bradford
Pa, appeared to show yesterday that
the disease already had penetrated far
beyond its port Of entry in this coun-
try.
The two victims in Pennsylvania
were dead before the nature of their
illness was suspected. They were Jes-
sure Romanelli and his sister, Vinci
Their father and Jessure's wife are i'll.
1t was found that members of the fam
lily had died from the disease in Italy,
and that when Vinci and her father
reached this country, few days ago,
they brought with them much of The
family wardrobe.
Reports from Washington told of O.
disagreement between officers of the
Public Health Service and the State
department as to preventive measures
to be adopted
So Immigrants Seized
Other developments were the seizure
of ffty-three vermin-infested immi-
grants as they came into the city; the
declaration by Byron H. Uhl, Deputy
Commissioner of immigration at Ell
lis Island, that the charge that immi-
grants were contracting vermin at Ell
lis Island is "damnable lie."
1t was asserted at the State Depart
ment in Washington that suggestion
for temporary ban on immigration
from infected districts in Europe had
been opposed by health officials when
put forward at a conference attended
by Senators, Health Service and State
Department officials and others. Health
Service representatives were said to
have expressed confidence that they
could handle the situation.
News of this disagreement was re-
garded here yesterday as explaining,
in a large degree, the failure of the
Federal government to provide the
proper facilities for and to authorize
the disinfection of immigrants as they
are passed through the immigrant sta
tions before landing at this and other
Atlantic ports.
Consuls Issued Warnings
According to Norman Davis, Under
Secretary of State, the influx of ty-
rhus cases to American shores would
have been prevented had the Federal
health authorities needed the warning

EXP Policeman Held for Trying
To Rob Station House Lockers

ANTI" yelled Brophy with more vigor
than elegance.
He jumped out of bed and sprang for
the burglar just as the latter, with the
trousers gripped in his teeth, seized
the rim of the scuttle and started to
haul himself to the roof. Sergeant
Brophy tackled him around the waist
and the two swung like gigantic pen
dulum until the sergeant's weight
brought his prisoner to the floor.
He turned out to be Edward Whalen,
a former policeman, who was dismissed
several years ago. He was once at
tached to the West Tooth Street police
station and consequently was perfectly
aware of the nature of the building
into which he had forced an entrance.
The police don't know whether he
was actuated by spite or whether he is
an honest-to- goodness burglar and
tackled the police station in the belief
that no one there would believe he
really was on felony bent, even if he
was discovered at work. He was locked
up on a charge of attempted burglary

Spy, Arrested i'm Austria
Accused of Giving Forged Docu.
ments Regarding Invasion of
Vienna 10 Czechs

BERLIN, Feb. 1S.-lgnatlus Tribich
Lincoln, notorious as an international
spy, has been arrested in Austria, says
a Vienna dispatch to the Tageblatt.
VIENNA, Feb. 19.-Announcing the
arrest of Ignatius T. Lincoln, the
Abendblatt says his latest attempt was
an effort to persuade the government OF
Czecho-Slovakia by forged documents
that Vienna was about to be occupied
by troops Of the neighboring states.
lgnatius I. Lincoln, formerly an Aus
trian subject, but later a naturalized
Englishman and member of the Brit
ish Parliament, was deprived of his
British citizenship early in 1919 and a
few months later was deported from
England. He had been in prison there
since 1916.
Lincoln has played his role in Eng
land, the United States, Germany, Hun
gary and Austria. He was arrested in
Brooklyn in 1915 on charge Of for
gerry, escaped from the custody of a
deputy marshal, was rearrested and in
May, 1915, was deported. Upon his
arrival in London shortly afterward he
was tried for forgery and sentenced to
three years penal sevitude. Later he
was deported.
