CHARGED WITH BIGAMY.
Chauffeur Questioned in Baltimore
Case Accused Here.

A young man describing himself as
Roy LIE Master, giving his age as
twenty three years, and saying he
formerly resided in. Peking, ILL.,, was
brought here from Baltimore Monday
night by Detective Cox and held to
answer charge of bigamy. 1t being
alleged that he and Miss Agnes Kum-
mer Of Baltimore were married in
this. city March 81, 1920, the young
man. 1t is charged, already having a
wife in the Illinois city.
It appears that LIE Master, a chauf-
feur. was questioned by Baltimore de-
.tectives engaged In the Investigation
Of the murder Of Clara Stone, eight
years old, in Baltimore several days
ago. During the questioning, it is
stated, LIE Master told of having been
q resident of Peking. ILL.,, and the po-
lice say he was wanted on a non-sup-
port charge there.
Further investigation on the part of
the police resulted in the filing of a big
amy charge against him in this city,
and Detective Cox served the writ or,
the prisoner in Baltimore last night.
LIE Master denied the charge tand told
Detective Cox it was up to the police
to prove it. 1t probably will become
necessary to summon the alleged first
wife as q witness.

A New Factor in Court Procedure.

r. HE comedy possibilities of the sphygmomano-
/ meter have been recognized for a number
of years This delicate apparatus which, its spon-
sors say. can detect fasehood by measuring the
blood pressure of the witness has served its pur-
pose for the jokesmiths, the cartoonists and the
vaudeville sketch writers. The idea was grabbed at
avidly as a means OF making the public laugh
that many have lost sight of the real value which
may attach to the mechanism. But the sphyg-
momanometer is indorsed seriously by the most
reputable psychologists. There is every to
presume that it do what is claimed for it.
If it is used, as proposed, in murder
trial in Washington the courtroom will become, for
few moments, the center of interest for the scen-
tihc world. Of course. the average Judge and the
average jury will be hestant about allowing its
records evidence. 1t has not been convincngly
enough demonstrated for the life of man to be
made dependent upon it. But it may we'll prove a
great help to the attorneys conducting the case.
1t will furnish them with evidence sufficient to
guide their own conduct of the case.
Among the interesting features Of the present
project is that the attorneys for the defense have
asked that the sphygmomanometer be used They
think it would be valuable in convincing the jury
their client was telling the truth.
Sooner later this Device il it really has merit
will be introduced into common use in criminal
Investigations. 1t will be more than joke And
hnger-print method OF identification, now in use the
world over, considered as material for
some very laughable jests.

Time for Surgery, Not Pills.

~ ISTRICT women interested in child welfare
work have reason for their disappointment
at the attitude adopted by the District Commits
sioners in the Industrial Home School scandal
Nothing has been done to improve the situation
No new light has been thrown upon conditions
The problem is as far from settlement ever.
1t must be obvious by this time that the
two. conflicting viewpoints in this be
brought together without outside interference But
the District officials have neglected to bring any
pressure to bear unless they have taken steps
unknown to the public
There is reason to believe that the report made
to the Commissioners did not cover the situation
Although it not made public, the general trend
of the findings announced. This did not bear
out the statements made by other investigators. 1t
is possible that the Commissioners have been led
by this report to underestimate the importance of
the situation. They have come to the conclusion
that the whole dispute like tempest in
teapot.
But the scandal is too serious to be white
washed" The public indignation may subside for
a time. Secrecy may prove effectual antdote
for the moment. But later the whole
affair will be brought up again with increased
vigor. 1t is impossible to keep such conditions
under cover indefinitely.
There seems to be no question but that the
underlying principles upon which the Board of
Children's Guardians bases its policy not
rect. Until they are changed there is certain to
be trouble
In the first place. there seems to be delusion
that the great American home is universal in
stitution
In the second place, the board has adopted
the mistaken idea that there is a great difference,
so far as the welfare of children is concerned be-
tween training received in good home and train
ing received in a good school.

they can function to the entire satisfaction OF Dis
trict citizens. In fact, it is time to put end,
once and for all to the chaotic conditions in which
District charitable institutions find themselves.
The diagnosis does call for sugar pills but for

United States-of folks with proud family trees
and gold to hang upon the branches.
Into Nahant came a fat little Italian butcher
from Lynn one Mike Di Carlo. Mike was the
possessor Of comfortable fortune and. in some
mysterious way, he became the owner Of one OF
Nahant's old houses-one of those houses which
usually have servants in livery etc. The exclusive
Nahanters were shocked, indignant or provoked.
but the butcher had paid his money and the home
his The Italians next move was to invite
poor children from the slums of Lynn to be his
guests to play his green lawns and to sing
their sum songs his front veranda.
This broke the hearts of the blue-bloods.
They had their unwelcome neighbor arrested. He
dragged before the court of the village, where
the judge, who probably is American without
any blue blood in his VEINS filed the case, much
the discomfort of the complainants.
Now Mike proposes to keep with the same
disgraceful procedure. He is only a grimy old
butcher, one might say in sob story. but
somehow other he strikes a Sir Galahad
in such surroundings. We presume there arc other
places where he might entertain the slum children
just we'll on his lawns at Nahant-but we
are not particularly concerned about the children
just at present We are concerned about the souls
of the exclusive villagers-the folks who occupy
palatial mansions. We hope, for their sakes. that
the little boys and girls from the slums will con-
tinue to sing King AROUND kosie anu Aon-
don Bridge is Falling Down." etc. all summer IN
front of their mansions-even If it spoils the whole
for them.
Some of them very, very sadly in need OF
intimate contact with the dirty, ragged little lads
and maidens who will be the Americans of the
next generation.
For them Mike Di Carlo may be St. John
the Baptist preaching in the wilderness. They
must learn that this is not yet country where
democracy is forgotten thing-and that the 1tal-
ian butcher is just as good the best Of them.

His opponents are branding him
because OF his fight against the

because he failed to follow the lead

such time as suitable arrangements
can be perfected. Over a consider
able period the public was alter
nately informed in the daily press
that Dempsey would fight Wills and
that he drew the color line and
would not fight him. Such horse
play became irksome and the
natural conclusion was that Demp-
sey was sidestepping a meeting
with the brown panther from New
Orleans. Now IL is assured they
will meet and after the battle the
crown will most probably rest upon
the brow of Wills. who has every
chance to defeat Dempsey. The lat
ter has stated that the good pick
ings for him would be over the day
he is flattened by a better man
and. being wise in his day and gen.
GRAFTON, he has consistently avoided
an encounter with Wills and
grabbed some easy money by taxi
ing on set-ups. knowing. as he
does. that he runs a very great risk
of being beaten when he measures
himself against the black man.
II Wills is the better man he
should have an opportunity to
demonstrate the fact and the box
ing commission has justified its
creation in forcing Dempsey's hand.
In addition to its handling of
Dempsey's case II has also recently
deprived the featherweight and
middleweight title holders Of their
laurels in New York State because
of their inaction.
Already Dempsey is in bad repute
with a soodly section of his coun-
trymen because he did not fight in
France and his failure heretofore
to fight Wills has not increased the
esteem in which the sporting ele-
ment holds him.

A Sane and Reasonable Attitude.


HE decision OF maintenance OF way men
not to join in the railroad strike, a
national unit at least, is of the most
hopeful developments in the entire situation up to
the present The officers of this union, which
numbers about 100000 members, have shown a
commendable interest in the welfare of the public.
Without question they have grievances They are
willinP to sacrifice the power and prestige which
would come from blanket wak-out for the sake
OF uninterrupted transportation all over the country.
Whether the railroad companies will appreci-
ate this attitude remains to be If they do
not take all possible steps to reach an anicable
agreement with these men they will have a poor
before the people If nationwide strike does
take place. The maintenance of way union has
shown itself conservative and reasonable. 1t has
been honest and public-spirited. 1t has the right
expect the same qualities from the officials with
whom it must deal.
The have shown no intent stop fight
ing for what they regard their rights. They
simply have adopted the attitude that noncomba-
tants shall be made to suffer as little as possible
because of their private quarrel. Little could
be asked of them in the line OF consideration for
the public.
more optimistic view of the entire railroad
situation is possible after the decision of the main
tenancc of way If they had struck body
the hope with which the public look upon
the attempted transportation tie-up would have
been diminished to a considerable extent
Meanwhile there less encouraging signs.
Both the Baltimore and Ohio and Chesapeake and
Ohio railroads offer srbtrate with their strik-
ing employees The offer is expressed that an
outsider. at least, is given the impression that Of
hcials of both these roads look upon the situation
with considerable tolerance. But, understand,
the strikers will negotiate with individual
roads This is unfortunate for the public. which
faces the prospect OF a settlement delayed by the
obstinacy OF few both sides. Eventually the
strike will end in compromise after good deal
of inconvenience has been caused and the trans
portation system of the United States somewhat
crippled for some time to come.
