FIRE DAMAGES Big
WOODEN ship AT
ALEXANDRIA YARD
Loss Estimated at SIS, 900,
Was Bought From
Shipping Board.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. Oct. 24.-
Damage estimated at s25.ooo was
done by FIRE to the big wooden
ship Atlantis. recently purchased
by the Western Salvage Company
at the plant Of the Virginia Ship
building Corporation here, which
workmen yesterday began TO dis
mantle. The '1hoodoo" ship Mo-
jave. which was on the west side
of the ship burned. was consider.
ably scorched.
A cigarette stump carelessly
dropped by one Of the worlxmes
is believed by J. n. Bsrde. general
manager of the salvage company
to have been responsible for ths
fire. The FIRE was discovered al
7:15 o'clock by George wilkins
watchman, who was making his
rounds of the ships. both Of which
are anchored side by side. wilkins
at once turned in the alarm. Hail
an hour afterward the tug Fire
fighter of Washington was on the
scene. In the meantime two
streams were put on from the
hose of the ship company's plant
The fire according to wilkins
evidently started in the engine
room. Soon the flames burst out
at the top destroying the cabin
and quartermaster deck. OIL anc
grease in the engine room Of tbs
big ship kept the firemen anxious
but with volunteers aiding had tbs
fire under control when the Fire.
lighter arrived at 3 O'Clock.
The GeorGie NJ Morse a s.400-to
steel freighter. launched by the
Virginia Shipbuilding Company in
1920. was menaced by the fire and
in the event the fire had not been
confined to the ship on which il
originated arrangements were being
made to have it pulled into mid.
stream.
Several thousand persons were
attracted by the blaze and every
avenue leading to the shipyard waa
clogged with automobiles. Fortu-
natelY for the fremen there was nc
wind blowing. otherwise the big
ship plant. a part OF which 20 now
used by the Trent Amalgam Com
pany. probably woCld have been
damaged.
Half an hour after the fire started
J. n. BRrde. general manager OF the
SALVAGE company, was on the scere
Mr.. Barde said the ship was not in
sured and that the fire will not af-
feet the work of salvsEing the
burned vessel. which will be con-
tinued tomorrow.
Several mechanics lost all OF their
tools. which were locked i'm cases
in the engine room. among which
were number of scetylene
burners
Both the Mojave and Atlantis ar
rived here Saturday morning. Both
ships are 2S6 feet long. The West
ern Salvage Company purchased
from the United States Shippipg
Board 22s of these ships. which is is
proposed to dismantle all in Alex.
andria. They cost the government
about $500. 100000 to construct.

Sues for Permit
To Move Whisky
Young New Yorker Tells the
Court He Needs $50
Gallons in Home.

Daniel Pollock, of New York City.
who describes himself as "a young
man. in his thirties. and in easy
financial circumstances" filed a pc
tition in the District Supreme Court
Yesterday for writ of mandamus
to compel David H. Blair, commits
sioner of Internal Revenue. to per-
nit him to move. $50 gallons of
whisky from a warehouse in Bal
timore, Md, to his home.
The whisky is contained in ninety
barrels. which originally contained
1850 gallons. and has been in a
free warehouse" since 1902-1904.
Pollock explains the balance Of the
whisky has been pilfered or evap-
GRATED or soaked into the wooden
barrels.
Pollock states in his petition that
he purchased the said whisky in
1919 for use as beverage in his
home He also informs the court
that he anticipates the consumption
of all of the said whisky during
his lifetime. and in a perfectly legal
manner.
Pollock insists that neither the
Eighteenth amendment nor the Vol
stead law contains any prohibition
against the, removal of this liquor.
Pollock also complains of the
rental of sS6 a yew which he is
compelled to pay for warehouse
space in a building which he claims
"is unsafe for storage" Under ex-
isting conditions, Pollock declares
the whisky is RAPIDLY being de-
stroyed and. in effect confiscated in
violation of the Constitution and
laws of the United States.

HARDING TAKES
BLAME LEVELED
AT GEN. SAWYER
Assumes Responsibility
For Acts Condemned
By Legion.

President Harding is standing
squarely behind Brig. Gen. Charles
E. Sawyer, his personal physician.
who functions also as chairman OF
the National disqualification Com
mittee
Notwithstanding the attacks upon
Gen. Sawyer by the American Le-
gion, the President has no inten-
tion OF asking for the generals
resignation as head of the commit
tee. This was stated upor the
highest authority at the White
House yesterday.
Not only does the President re-
gard Gen. Sawyer as free from
blame. but he personally assumes
ell responsibility for those acts for
which the general has been con-
demned so heartily. II was stated.
In the future the President would
prefer 20 have tho criticisms leveled
against himself. instead of at Gen.
Sawyer.
Mr.. Harding feels that the de-
mand for the ousting of Gen. Saw
yer is founded in large part on the
failure Of the government to locate
the new vetrans' hospital for the
Middle West in or near Chicago

Mrs. Gibson's attitude has changed

After numerous questionings. MIS-.
Gibson became furiously angry. set
her dogs on several newspaper repre-
sentatives. and broke a camera be-
longing to a photographer. After

Mrs. Gibson fatty denied the story
given out by an attache ot the prose

mule over the abandoned Phillips
farm in search of thieves. she saw
two men and two women arguing
under the crabapple tree, heard shots.
and a woman's scream.

Despite her denial. Mrs. Gibson ID
