Chicago to Sew
Wireless Alarm
Into Its Police

Chicago, Feb. THE old fashion
cd policeman who "pulled" a box
and then spent an hour mapping in
some sheltered corner Is threatened
with a shock-ln the wrist.
Chicago officials, planning to
equip every patrolman with a port
able wireless set, are considering
transmitting their signals by attach
Inc two electrodes to each patrol
mans wrist and attracting his at
tention by passing an electric i'm
pulse through his system.
Visible or oral signals are un-
suited to the needs of policemen

experts say, and so they have begun
experimenting with the shocking
plan.
Berlin, Germany, policemen have
been equipped with an eight pound
wireless set which transmits a shock
when headquarters wants a recip-
lent to run to the nearest call box.
The instruments are sewed in the
officers clothes, SO he has no
chance to forget and leave them at
home.
BY system of seIective trans
mission, Chicago wireless engineers
believe 1t will be possible to confine

Oldest Man in World Dies at z34;;
Was Chippewa and Oracle on Events

The date of his birth had been fig
+, ured back by some authorities as early
as 1887, which would have made him
1874 years old today-iust about as
old as the Constitution of the United
States-while others contended that he
was born in 1893, which would have

Ga-be ami geWn- Wonce was also
known as Wnh- -gunta, and would
even answer to plain John Smith Ac-
cording to the bureau of Indian affairs,
he was fire maker of the once power
full Blackfeet tribe. His declining days
were spent on the north bank of Mud
Lake, twelve miles from the village of
Ball Club, Minnesota, where he lived in
a hut of birch bark.
Wooed New Wife After 100
He outlived several wives. and when
long past the century mark he was
still young enough to WOO another.
His once powerful frame had slowly
wasted his hair turned pure white,
and his face became scanned like a
walrus hide, but his step was still
sprightly and he never stepped from
his hut without humming some tune.
His unusual fondness for music was
one of his peculiarities. Often he
walked the II miles to Ball Club to
hear piano or violin, his favorite
musical instruments. When ragtime
air was struck up, the old Indian
would smile broadly, his black beady
eyes would sparkle, and he would lift
his shoulders and snap his fingers in
real cabaret style.

FORMER Chief DIED
Of SKULL FRACTURE
IS JURY'S VERDICT
Examination Shows Death of
Morrissey Was Not Due to
Heart Failure.

Butte, Feb. Edward Morrissey.
former chief of detectives Of Butte,
died from the effects of fractured
sxuA and numerous cuts and bruises.
according to the verdict of coroner's
jury returned Tuesday. Morrissey
was found dead in his apartments ap-
parently 10 days or two weeks after he
had died and the body was badly
frozen.
It was thought at the time he had
died from heart failure as injuries were
not apparent until the body had thawed.
Police are working on the theory that
he sustained the injuries in an en-
counter. He was last seen thev said
with Constable Arthur Hooking, who
died suddenly last week. Hockina's
death was attributed to pneumonia.

Cass Lake, Mimi, Feb. 7.-Ga-Be
Nav-Gewn- Wonce, also known as John
Smith, Chippewa Indian reputed to
be 1874 years old, died Tuesday after
a weeks illness of pneumonia.
Smith, whose Indian name meant
"Wrinkled- Meat" had been very active
in late years. A year ago he became
totally blind, but his mind remained
clear and he often recalled the days
when he was a scout for the Chip
pewas in the wars with the Sioux. He
also remembered events of the war of
1872 One of his boasts was that he
had never fought against the white
man.
He had been married eight times. He
had no children and the only survivor
is Tom Smith, an adopted son, with
whom he lived.
Funeral services were held here
Thursday at the local Catholic church,
which he joined eight years ago.
It is declared to be reasonably
authentic that the Indian Ga-be-n nah
gewn-wonce was at least 125 years old.
Was Tribal Firemaker
The United States bureau Of In
dian affairs, the American Scenic and
Historic Preservation society, and
various other historical societies that
have interested themselves in this
famous aborigine, in fact, had been led
to accept the claim of Ga-be-nah-
gewn, n,wonce and his fellow Indians on
the Minnesota reservation that he was
"the oldet living person in the world"

POSITION OF UNITED STATES
Washington, Feb. 7.-Arnerican re

Washington, Feb. 7.-Arnerican re-
sponse to the invitation Of the allied
supreme council to be represented at
the Genoa economic conference prob
ably will be announced Friday, it was
said at the White House. 1t was
stated officially that the delay in franz
ing the reply had not been occasioned
by any connection with legislation for
the funding of the debt of foreign ma
tions to this country.
No indication of the nature of the
American governments response was
given Tuesday, but the belief has been
expressed in official circles that the
attendance of delegates actually rep
resenting the United States at Genoa,
as differentiated from unofficial OBJ
servers. might be dependent upuon the
scope TO the proposed discussions.
Big Questions Political
Matters likely to be discussed at the
Genoa conference were reviewed Tues
day night by the federal reserve board
in it's monthly bulletin for February,
in which it covered broad field of
European economic problems, such as
German reparations, the existing fis
cal affairs of the various nations, the
gold standard and exchange variation.
According to the board Russian and
German questions are practically in
evitable elements in the European
economic situation.
The issues at stake on these points,
however, the board declared, were "po
litical' in the broad sense, rather than
economic, and for this reason the be-
lief was advanced that any plan at
feeting rehabilitation of Russia. Ger
many, Austria mad southern Europe
generally would not be very likely to
succeed, because of the natural limi-
tations to which it would be subject.
Preparations Unsatisfactory
Importance of the reparations ques-
ton to European conditions was
stressed by the board, which called
attention to the unsatisfactory" posi-
ton in which the question had been
left.
A fundamental issue to be dealt with
at Geona, the board asserted, un-
doubtedly would be the restoration of

GERMANY, RUSSIA AND GOLD
STANDARD GENOA PROBLEMS
U. S. Participation to Be Decided Friday; This
Government Interested Most in Redistribu-
ton of Basic Money Hoard.
London Feb. 8-According to the Westminster Gazette
the British government has received from the French
making strong representations that the Genoa
economic conference should be postponed three months

the gold standard, or some plan for
the sthbliization of exchange No
program for European currency re-
form. however, has any chance of sue
cess. the board contended, until some
sort of an international agreement
makes possible the balancing of
budgets and the consequent cessation
OF initiation through the elimination of
expenditures in excess of the ability
Of the government to pay.
Gold Danger To Us
The United States. the board de-
clared, has an interest in the intro
duction of some form of gold stand
ard, because the abnormal concentra-
tion of gold in this country at present
is ''grayely dangerous" and considera-
tions of national interest alone are
sufficient for gravely weighing pro-
posals involving the return of some of
the gold held by this country for use
elsewhere"
No proposals of any sort should,
however" the board asserted, ''be en-
tertained until far reaching kuaran-
tees of fiscal reform have been Sc
cured from the countries that require
aid. Otherwise the assistance would
be detrimental to the extent that it
would lead to the postponement of the
necessary fiscal reforms which must
be made preliminary to the. rehabilita-
ton of currency systems and the re-
establishment of stabilized exchange

stories of the Indian fights, some OF
them back as far as 1900. Smith was
often able to give the year. month and
sometimes the day of Indian happen
ings that had been lost track of.
One event in his early life which
the aged Indian related in detail and
which he declared is imprinted even
more firmly in his memory than inn
portant happenings of the last few
years, is a massacre by the Sioux In
dians in Minnesota near the present
sites of the Twin Cities. The mas
sacre resulted from an effort by q
missionary. known to the Indians as
Pah degree, tos effect conciliation
between the Sioux and Chippewas.
Many hundred of the latter were slain.
Smith says he was but 10 years old
at that time.

considered. the big factor in extending
life SO long. His Oldest acquaintances

MANY WAR DREAMS
DUE To NARROWING
SIGHTS, PROBE TOLD
Story of One Witness That He
Saw Boy Shot Begging Not
to Blindfold, Held One.

Washington, Feb. THE suggestion
that George W. Marlborough. of Roam
oke. Ala, dreamed" he witnessed the
shooting of an American soldier by a
firing squad in France was made bes
fore senate investigating committee
by Colonel Holstead Borey, of the
Fourth infantry, who denied that he
ever heard of such an incident
Testifying recently before the COM
mite. Marlborough declared he saw the
soldier shot by the squad north of the
Argonne and that he was close enough
to hear him beg that he be not blind
folded.
Called along with some twenty odd
witnesses who were in that locality in
July, 1913, the time of the alleged
shooting, Colonel Borey said that har-
rowing experiences at the front often
caused soldiers to make statements in
good faith as to events which never
happened and which existed only in
their imagination.

ARMS PACTS
TO GAIN 0. \.
IS PROMISE
President Assured at
White House Dinner
of Little Opposition.
Legislative Program to
June | Includes Bonus,
Farm Credits.

Washington, Feb. IA leg.
islative program, contemplat'
ing ratification Of the treaties
growing out of the arms con.
ference and passage of the tar
iff soldier bonus, farm credit
and merchant marine bills,
with adjournment of congress
about June /, was said to have
been agreed upon at the White
House dinner conference Tues
day night with President Hard
ing, attended by members of
the senate and house steering
committees.
1t was the understanding
that treaties which the presi-
detn expects to submit to the
senate this week, or as soon as
the American delegation can
report, would be given the
right Of way in the senate un-
til the tariff bill was reported
by the finance committee. The
plan then would be to consider
the tariff measure and the
treaties alternately.
1t was said that the presi-
dent had been assured by SEN
ators that there would be little
if any opposition to the treat
les. The president it was
added, gave no indication as to
whether he will present the
treaties to the senate in per-
son.
Bonus Source Up to Committee
The bonus bill was said to have been
discussed at the conference but the
problem of financing it was not touch
ed upon: Some of the presidents call
ers said they were satisfied to leave
TINS to the majority members of the
house ways and means committee and
the senate finance committees. This
was in line with the agreement reached
by the president and members Of these
committees
President Harding's guests left with
the impression that it was the inten-
ton Of the executive to submit his
recommendations as to merchant ma
rine legislation within 10 days.
The farm credits legislation con-
templated. 1t was explained, will be
drawn with view to carrying out
recommendations of the special con-
gressional committee. In it's report I
the commission emphasized the neces-
Slty for adapting existing hank faciIi- |
ties to fill the gap SO as to extend long
time credits to farmers.
The bill reclassifying federal en-
ployes, which already has passed the
house, is included in the legislative pro-
gram agreed on, but it was stated that
action on the measure for the reor-
ganization Of federal government de-
partments probably would be deferred
until the next session.
