Murder of Broker
Sheriff Declares Wife Has
Not Given Satisfactory
Answers.

Northport, N. Y, July 1S.-OAicial
inquiry into the killing of Henry
G. Hernming. New York broker, by
Frank Ebehhardt, earetaker of Hem
lning's wife's estate, was renewed to-
day at the insistence of Sheriff Kelly,
who asserts that Mrs. Hemming has
not given satisfactory answers to
questions concerning the events pre-
ceding the shooting of her husband,
which was followed by the suicide
of Eberhardt.
Assistant District Attorney Par
fridge has exonerated Mrs. Hem
ming of completely in the death of
her husband, but under the urging of
the sheriff, District Attorney Young
has taken personal charge Of the
inquiry.
Sheriff Kelly said that Mrs. Hem
ming knew about the caretaker's in
tention to kill her husband if he
should try to force his way into her
hcme.
Mrs. Hemming revealed today that
John G. Hemming of New York, the
brokers' son by prior marriage,
had barred her from her husbands S
funeral. She said she telephoned to
him four times to learn the hour for
the services, and that she was told
she would not be informed unless
she signed a sworn statement that
newspaper reports concerning her
husband were untrue. She refused
this demand and later received a
telegram telling of the arrangements
of the funeral, but it was too late
for her to attend.

Bees Force Men to
Desert Car, Without
Shutting Off POlUer

Grand Island, Neb., July 18-
Especial. .)-Suddenly to drive into a
swarm of bees was the experience
of Clarence Mcintosh and Art Hart
man of Chapman, the attack of the
busy little ones being of such a
ferocious nature that the two jumped
from the car without stopping to
shut off the power or apply the
brakes.
Mr.. Hartman was driving and,
after the third or fourth sting.
jumped without more ado. In the
excitement Mr.. Mcintosh was pre-
cipitated through the windshield and
was cut quite badly. The car
swerved into the ditch and seemed
to be pursuing Mr.. Hartman when a
wheel collapsed and Lizzie" came to
a stop.
The accident occurred on the Lin
coin highway two miles west of
Chapman. Neither of the occupants
of the car were much the worse for
the experience.

Victim Of Automobile
Crash May Lose Sight

David City, Neb., July 18.-(Spe-
cial. Earl Parks of Garrison is iy-
ing in the David City hospital
threatened with the loss of sight in
both eyes.
He was helping on a threshing
machine in the country and, being in
need of repairs, started with two
other men to town in a car. AS
they started to pass a hay rack in
the road they brushed against the
side of the rack, breaking the glass
in the side of the car. A piece of
the glass struck Parks across the {;
eyes, cutting them severely.
An eye specialist has been sum-
moned, but physicians have small
hope of his recoving his sight. :
When Mrs. Parks, his wife, learned
of the accident, the shock was so
great that she became semi-con-
scious, in which condition she still
remains.

us. Is Pleased
With Programs
On Disarmament
Sentiment of World Slowly
Swinging in Favor of Plan
Too Much Speed May
Cause Discord.
Rx The Associated Press.

Washington, July 18.-Whife the
State department is advancing its
negotiations for the disarmament
conference as rapidly as it considers
practicable, there is a well-defined
feeling here that time and prelimi-
nary discussion are working on the
side of the United States in its ef-
fort to include troublesome diplo-
matte problems within the scope Of
the conference.
This belief is particularly mani
fest just now with relation to Japan,
the only nation which has not ac-
cepted unreservedly the American
suggestion that far eastern questions
be considered along with the general
topic of disarmamnt. Confidence
that such an unreserved acceptance
eventually will come from Toxic
has increased measurably among
American officials since the proposal
became subject of discussion
throughout Japan.
Public Opinion Helps.
1t has been apparent that Presi-
dent Harding and his advisers were
counting on the aroused public opin-
ion of the world as their greatest aid
in moving for armament limitation,
and they have read press reports
and the comments Of foreign diplo-
rlatists with keen interest. to dis
cover how impelling is the sentiment
in favor of frank exchange of ideas
on all subjects threatening interna-
tional discord This survey. so far
as officials have been willing to
comment, has aroused in them gen
eral satisfaction.
Press reports from Japan, indicat-
ing that the question of full partici-
patton is one of the liveliest debates
there, are taken as welcome sign.
The same may be assumed also with
regard to London dispatches indi-
eating that British opinion hopes for
a complete acceptance by Japan.
The impression that time is a
friendly factor in all of these consid-
erations, and that undue impatience
might lead to misunderstanding of
the real motives of the United States
in proposing the conference is re-
earded as explaining the indisposi-
ton of this government to hasten
the preliminaries. 1t was indicated
today that nothing definite had been
done toward physical arrangements.
Expense New Question.
One question undecided is who
shall pay expenses of the visiting
delegations. 1t is customary for
commissions sent to such gatherings
as peace conferences to be provided
with funds by their respective gov
crnments, but some officials are in
doubt as to the polit. course in the
case of conference in which the
participants are invited to the soil of
one of the nations represented.

Men Misunderstood.
Women are not so gregarious as
men, and for that very reason do not
understand in their inner natures
that need for companionship with
varied social elements. The desire
of man to leave his wife for the
purpose of going to enjoy himself
with other people for an evening, or
for a day, or for week, is some
thing wholly out of her field of ex-
perience, and she feels hurt because
she herself would not leave him for
any such reason.
"Then again, men need a great
deal more physical exercise than wo-
men require. 1t may be almost a
matter of life or death with them
to run off and play golf or to go
on shooting or fishing trips.

really necessary from the point of

Two Amendments
To Tariff Bill
Made by House
Crude Petroleum and Fuel
Oil Placed on Free List and
Long Staple Cotton
Made Dutiable.
Chicago Tribune-omaha Bee Leased Wire.

Washington, July 18. = Two
bill were made by the house in com1
mittee of the whole today. One OF
them placed crude petroleum and
fuel oil on the free list, while the
other made long staple cotton duti-
able.
A letter from President Harding
to Chairman Fordney of the ways
and means committee, protesting
against duties on oil, caused ma
jority of the republicans to join with
the democrats for the amendment.
The vote on the amendment offered
by Representative Treadway of Mas
sachusetts was. 1876 to 86.
The amendment adding long
staple cotton to the dutiable list was
adopted by vote o: los to "a, on
the motion of Representative Bow
ers of West Virginia. The duty pro-
vided is IS per cent ad valorem. The
action on the oil duties is believed
to mark the end of the agitation on
the subject. Crude petroleum and
fuel oil both are on the free list in
the Underwood act, and there was
no suggestion that they be made
dutiable until prices dropped few
months ago and the independent
producers advocated a claim that a
tariff was needed to- limit Mexican
imports. The large oil interests
have been against any duty.
Urged as Safeguard.
In view of the decisive vote to-
day, it is not regarded as probable
that the senate will attempt to add
duties on oil. .
President Harding, in his letter,
declared that to levy protective
tariff on crude petroleum would be
at variance with all that has been
done to. safeguard the future oil sup
ply for the United States. He sug-
gested that it might be desirable to
provide a bargaining arrangement,
vesting authority in the executive in
case another country imposes ex-
changes or levies duties against
American products. No attempt was
maale in the house, however, to offer
an amendment carrying out this sug-
gcstion. Representative Fordney

Poughkecpsie, N. Y, July lS.-
Just as the absorbing Stillman case
here was delayed until October, a d.
vorce suit involving notables and
with Canadian background, made its
bow today in the public spotlight.
The new case is the Mrs. Aimee
Morris suit against DR.. Robert T.
Morris, noted surgeon of New
York City. Instead of an Indian
guide as, a young woman is named
correspondent. Whatever the Morris
case lacks in youngsters paternity
is offset by DR.. Morris amazing
writings OF recent years in books he
has published on marriage.
Pending opportunity to weigh the
evidence in the underlined action.
Justice Morschauser today withheld
decision, saying he would render
judgment in about a week. The
charges of the wife involve "a short,
dark-haired girl" in incidents in the
wilds OF Canada and the more placid
setting OF farm near Stamford,
Conn.
Two Witnesses Appear.
Two witnesses, apparently all
scheduled, testified. They were Will
liam Yates, farmer and guide, who
lives in the Algoma district Of On
tario, and Peter Belomiyzy, a gar
dener, employed at DR.. Morris coun-
try Observation-Disclosures, Stam-
ford, Conn. The Canadian guide told
of trip by the physician and the
correspondent in July, 1920, up into
the timbered country north OF Bass
wood Lake, Loberly, Ont. The
gardener described visit of the pair
to the country place while Mrs.
Morris was away.
DR.. Morris told newspaper men
that he was innocent and that his
young woman companion on the trip
into the Canadian woods was also
adding:
"But what can I do in the face
Of this evidence against me?"
When he was asked about his wife,
the physician said that when he
wrote the chapter on Marital Nor
bidity," in one of his books-"A Sud-
geon's Philosophy"-he had his wife
in mind.
Some of the passages from the
book follow:

Mexican Revolt
In Tampico Oil
Field Settled
Leader, General Herrera,
Asks Permission to Surrend.
er-Disarmament Of His
Followers Ordered

Mexico City, July ls.-(By The
Associated Press.)-The revolt
headed by Gen. Martinez Herrera
in the Tampico oil region has ap-
parently broken down without the
firing of a shot. Herrerra's request
that he be permitted to surrender
has resulted in an order for the dis
arming of his followers, who are
said to number about $50. 1t is pos
sible that President Obregon, who is
at San Luis Potcsi, will give in
structions from there as to the dis
position of the insurgent general.
The center of interest throughout
the four-day period Of the rising was
General Pelaez, commander of the
federal forces in the Tampico dis
trict.
He returned to Mexico City from
the United States only few hours
before dispatches told OF the insur-
gent movement led by Herrera, who
was his trusted aide and second in
command.
In view of persistent stories that
General Pelaez was not in entire ac-
cord with the Obregon administra-
tion, there was much speculation
and not a little anxiety as to what
course he would take. He imme-
diately announced himself in COM
plete harmony with the president,
disavowed Herrerra's actions and
described the revolt as inspired by
certain oil men who willfully misled
the soldiers into believing that the
rebellion was his personal desire.
General Pelacz has divided most
of the past three days between the
war Office where he was in confer
ence with Secretary Estrada and his
own Office where he has been giving
out statements to the newspapers
bitterly assailing certain oil men. He
is still in Mexico City. He did not
accompany Secretary Estrada when
the latter left last night for Tampico
to conduct an investigation.
Demands for strict investigation
into the revolt have been made and
it is asserted tby Excelsior that
Eduardo Neri, federal prosecuting
attorney, has directed thorough
probe looking to stern legal meas
ures against the secretary.
Persons close to President
Obregon describe him as optimistic
over international relations. The
president is quoted as having ex-
pressed his confidence that the diff
fculties between Mexico and the
United States will be cleared up
within three months.
Court martial proceedings await
General Martinez Herrera, leader of
a recent revolt in the Tanpico oil
region according to advices received
rere from San Luis Potosi where
President Obregon and Secretary of
War Estrada are visiting. This an
followed General Her
rerra,s rquest that he be permitted
to surrender when i; became appar-
cnt that he could net muster suf-
6cient forces to carry out his plans.
Excelsior says it learns on good
that the Herrera revolt or
iginally was planned to occur stimuli
taneously with the arrival of several
American destroyers in Tampico
bay, in order to force the immediate
landing of United States marines.

Prison Riot
Ten Frame Buildings Within

Burned as Men Stage
Revolt.
\Cuards Are Reinforced
BY The Associated Press.

Pittsburgh, Pa, July l8.-Six per-
sons were injured and 10 factory
buildings destroyed in a riot and fire
at the Western penitentiary here this
afternoon. Police and deputy sher-
ifs from all parts OF the city assisted
the prison guards in holding the pris-
oners while fremen put out the
flames. Warden Francis asked Gov
ernor Sproul for two troops of state
soldiers to guard the prison tonight.
A great crowd gathered outside the
walls during the disturbance.
Police and fire lines were drawn
tightly around the institution and de-
tailed reports of the outbreak were
unavailable. 1t was known, how
ever, that Pennsylvania penitentiary
guards reinforced by city police and
!. deputy sheriffs, armed with rifles
and riot guns, were holding the pris-
oners at bay while heavy freight
ing force was endeavoring to ex-
tinguish the flames.
Five riot alarms were turned in to
the police and fire departments from
the penitentiary at 1885 O'Clock.
/ First reports were that the prisoners
had rcvolted and fred the buildings,
which are located on the Ohio river
i'll the lower part of the old city of
Allegheny.
Nine Companies Respond.
Nine fire companies immediately
responded to the alarms and police
reserves were hurried to the penten-
tiary. Telephone communication
with the institution was temporarily
cut off. Fire records show that all
the alarms were sent from fire box
inside the penitentiary.
A Gordon of police was quickly
thrown around every entrance of the
prison and fire lines were established
some distance away. Great volumes
of smoke rising from the enclosure
indicated that the broom factory was
rapidly being destroced.
Sheriff w. S. Haddock answered a
call from the office of John Francis
with 10 deputy sheriffs armed with
iiot guns.
Every available policeman was
sent by Robert Alderdice. director
of public safety, to reinforce the men
already on duty while the peniten-
tiary guards were mobilized within
the walls.
About 1900 convicts.
|, The Western penitentiary contains
between 1900 and $500 prisoners,
some of them sent there by federal
courts and the remainder from the
western counties of Pennsylvania.
A peep through one of the prison
gates showed a party of Pittsburgh
detectives with drawn revolvers fac
ing great crowd of prisoners in the
yard. The men appeared to be in
great terror from the flames which
ragged back of them. So far as could
be seen. none of them was armed.
Meantime the flames had crept
along the Ohio river side and many
prisoners confined in cells there
shattered the glass in the windows
and shrieked for help. Two watch
towers on the walls were attacked
by the fire and quickly consumed.
Persons in the street could dis
tinctly hear the shrieks and groans

reported that number had been
hurt and taken to the first aid hos
