age Forced Them to Use
Gas Range for Warmth

The deaths Of Daniel Cohen and h!s
bride, Frances, in their apartment af
227 Ashburton Avenue, Yonkers, which
were discovered Sunday night, were ex-
planned yesterday by officials as due to
carbon monoxide gas.
This theory was advanced by the no.
lice after an autopsy had failed to
throw any light on the cause Of death,
and was also concurred in by Coro-
ner Frederick Snowden after he had
examined the gas fixtures in the
kitchen of the apartment. which ad-
joins the bathroom, where the bodies
were found.
There is hot water coil, heated by
gas, In the kitchen, SIS well as a gas
range. and both were lighted when
the bodies we're found. Coroner Snow-
den thought that the burner beneath
the coil was defective.
Mrs. Samuel Cohen, of 129 Vineyard
Avenue, Yonkers, said that the coal
shortage was responsible for the death
of her son and his wife. fhe couple
had been unable to get Goa for their
range, she said, and had to keep the
gas rar. and water heater burning

Traces Of the fatal gas were discov-
cred yesterday in corners of the apart
ment where drafts of air from open
windows and doors had not penetrated.

Mccormick Says McAdoo Fled
N. u. to Seek Political Fame

From The Tribaae.a Wasssastos Tarcda
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3o.--Tn a state.
mcnt given out by the Republican Ma
tional Committee to-day, Senator Medill
Mccormack, chairman Of the Republi.
can Senatorial Committee, replies to a
speech made in Omaha by William G.
McAdoo and charges him with reckless
ly n,isrepresenting facts. Recalling Mr.,
McAdoo's waste of public money while
in Office, Senator Mccormick says he
fed from New York to California be-
cause "he knew the New York Democ-
racy held forth to him no hope of ad-
yancement."
Mr., McCormick's statement was pub
iished in "Tha Omaha Bee to-day and
wired to the Republican National Com
mittee, which gave 1t out this after
noon. The statement follows:
"The report of Mr.. McAdoo's Omaha
speech shows he still is as reckless

the use of adjectives as he was in the

ing OF public promises when he held

harlequin or political mannequin. The
record describes better than ] can. 1t
is q matter Of notoriety that he fled
from New York to take temporary
refuge in California because he knew
the New York Democracy held forth to
him no hope of advancement.
"The record, not mere assertions, will
establish the truth or the falsehood of
Mr.. McAdoo's statements and mine, Mr..
McAdoo, next to DR.. Wilson, was the

Wilson, by the stenographic record, has
testified he would have Joined the coun-
try, despite the Democratic campaign
of 1915.
"That Administration was responsi-
Bile for the imitation and the consequaDs
dehation Of which Mr.. McAdoo himssls
has held It's Reserve Board responsible.
"The records, the undisputed records,
show the appalling loss in railroad op-
Grafton laid upon the United States
Treasury by the railroad administra-
tion organized by Mr.. McAdoo.
"That railroad administration since
has estimated that the increase In the
cost OF freight charges and the cost of
railroad travel was So 100000, 900 year
and then after Mr.. MeAdoo's manage
ment Of them the railroads were run
at loss. Who wrecked the railroad
business Who boosted the freight
rates? Who busted the farmers?

tions already voted by the United
States, Great Britain and Japan.
Among the other accomplishments
reviewed by Mr.. Hughes were the ncgo-
tiation of peace treaty with Germany,
the Yap agreement protecting Ameri-
can interests in the mandate islands
of the Pacific. the reorganization of
Cuba's finances, the Tacna-Arica arbi-
tration agreement between Chile and
Peru, the calling Of q conference here
Of Central American republics and the
stabilization of Hayti and Santo Do
mirgo.
Toward the peopls of Mexico, the
Secretary said, the United States en-
tertains only the friendliest senti-
ments, although it is unwilling to
recognize any Mexican internal policy
based upon confscatory measures
against foreigners.
In his discussion Of the Near East
crisis, Secretary Hughes said:
Near East Vital Issue
"The most acute questions at the
moment concern the Near East. The
Christian world has been filled with
horror at the atrocities committed in
Anatolia, especially In connection with
StS beAhibS VI aIIiy HdJ ltSatSu OIly
by the wholesale nassacres and de-
portations of the Armenians in 1915.
"While nothing can excuse in the
slightest degree or palliate the acts of
barbaric cruelty of the Turke, no just
appraisement can be made of the ait
uation which fails to take account Of
the incursion of the Greek Army into
Anatolia, Of the war there waged
and Of the terrible incidents Of the re-
treat Of that army, in the burning Of
towns and general devastation and
cruelties. Anatolia in war has been
the scene Of savagery.
Last June the President gladly
agreed to enter with the great powers
into an investigation of the atrocities
which had been reported, and he de-
tailed officers for that purpose. Later
it was suggested by the powers that
the inquiries be undertaken by the Red
Cross, and this was agreed to, but be-
final scenes in the tragedy were being
enacted.
Protest Turk Atrocities
eve have not failed to voice Amer
lean sentiment in our adherence of
these cruelties practiced upon help
less populations. Our American High
Commissioner at Constantinople dur
ing the last year and half has not
failed repeatedly and vigorously to pro-
test against them. Before the burn
ing Of Smyrna, fearing the reprisals
that might follow the Greek retreat,
kc most earnestly impressed OH the
Turkish Nationalists the need of en-
ergetic measures for the protection of
the occupied territories.
In the appalling distress at Smyrna
American officers were the first to
give and continued to give all the re-
lief within their power, and from that
moment we have lost not opportunity
to succor the refugees by measures
which have been rapidly and constant
ly broadening to meet the exigency in
| every practicable way. Our represen-
tatiyes have been instrumental in ef-
fecting the evacuation from Smyrna
of nearly 100000 refugees. The Presi-
dents appeal on behalf Of humanity,
| and in support of all that the organized
philanthropy of America can do. has
met with the most generous response.
U. S. Not Party in War

| the event. The fact is that these
later occurrences have been the i'm

to some purpose IL We were ready to
act.
"Tha conference on this subject not
only furnished an opportunity for, but
the egigency required. the considers
tion of Far Eastern problems. When
this Administration casno into power
the air was rife with riiniors, and the
pseudo-patriots, who mako it their
business to stir up suspicion snd dis
trust by attacks upon the motives and
purposes of other peoples, were at
work with larger measure Of sue
cess than any actual point Of differ
ence justified. 1t was one OF those
conditions which require the ifnmedi-
ate application Of preventive medicine,
and this was applied.
Far East Amity Assured
"Then, and of outstanding signif-
cnnce in the interest Of peace, there
was negotiated the power-treaty.
which, without committing the United
States to any alliance, provided that
their rights in relation to their insular
possessions and dominions in the
region of the Pacific Ocean and that
they would confer together with re-
spect to any controversy that might
arise involving such rights, The re-
suit is that we have established good
will and cooperation in the Far East
in the place Of mutual distrust.
This conference was not partisan
enterprise, and / do not speak OF it
In partisan way. 1t is but just. how
ever, to give to tho Administration
credit for the conference, which could
not have been called, and for the re-
suits, which could not have been
achieved, without its leadership.
"There is some tendency On the part
of our critics to comment cynically
upon the fact that the conference
treaties have not yet been ratified by
all the powers and hence are not yet
in effecF. This comment is really
tribute, for it only serves to emphasize
the Importance of the conference and
it's achievements and how much would
be lost il the treaties failed. Well, l
think they need not go into mourning
as yet. The treaties. in my opinion,
are not going to fail.
"tireat Britain and Japan have rati-
fed all the treaties; thus the three
great naval powers which were in COM
petition - the United States, Great
Britain md Japan--have done all with
in their power to make the action Of
the. conference effective. That is OF
the utmost significance; that preclude.
all thought Of tho ultimate failure Of
the work Of the conference. ] have
no reason to believe that the other
signatories - France and Italy -- will
