Mystery Surrounds Case
He Had Clipping Showing
Niece Is Heiress; Death
From Natural Causes

The body of Charles McDermott ff-
ty-eight years old, who died yesterday
in Long Island City hotel, was taken
last night to the apartment of his wife,
Mrs. Minnie McDermott, at 400 River
side Drive. She is reputed to be
wealthy.
Mystery surrounds the case. McDer-
mott had occupied the inexpensive
room at Kaiser's Hotel since March 27.
AT the hotel it was said the man con-
fided in no one, apparently had no
friends, but paid his bills promptly.
He left every morning just after break
fast, returning at dinner time and then
retired to his room. He was believed
to have been man Of culture and re-
fnement and his reticence was COM
mented upon. His death was due to
natural causes.
Detective John Hurton, of the Hun
ters' Point Detective Bureau, was
called to the hotel after the body was
foundd and he searched the mans eff
fects. He found Mrs. McDermatt's
card and telephoned her. A maid an
McDermott. When informed of the
import of the message, Mrs. McDermott
told the detective she would take charge
of her husbands body.
AT her home last night Mrs. Nc
Dermott declined to comment upon her
husbands death.
The detective discovered the follow
ing newspaper clipping in the pockets
OF the dead mans clothing:
"Catharine Ann Vanderpoel, Of Sum-
nit. N. j., fourteen years old, appeared
to-day before Surrogate Cohalan with
her aunt, Mrs. Minnie McDermott, of
400 Riverside Drive, who requested
that the child's allowance be increased
TO $500 year.
Mrs. McDermott said that she had
taken care of her niece for two years
since the death of the child's parents.
The allowance was asked for clothing
and education and is drawn from an
estate left the child by her parents
The request was granted"

Bedtime Stories
Miserable Little Mr.. Smarty.
BY Thornton w. Burgess
A pity tbs, but 1t is true,
The innocent mast suffer, too.
Mrs. Reddy.

Of all the little people in the
Green Forest and on the Green Mead
ows, in the Old Orchard and in the
Old Pasture the most miserable was
little Mr.. Smarty, the young Fox who
had tried to show off. You know he
had tried to catch one Of Jimmy
Skunk's children, and that little
Skunk had promptly used his little
scent gun. For a while little Mr..
Smarty rolled and kicked and squealed
and cried. He was sure his eyes had
been put out. for some of that scent
had beeA thrown right into them.
But by and by he found his eyes
were not put out, and as soon as he
could see he crawled to his home,
which WAS also the home of his
brother and two sisters and father
and mother. There in the doorway
he lay down and whimpered and cried
and rubbed and rubbed his face, and
felt very, very sick. He wondered
Why hisl brothers and sisters didn't
come to him and tell him they were
sorry for him. He couldn't see we'll
enough to see where they were, SO he
thought they must have run away.
They hadn't run away. but they had
gone far enough to getfresh, pure air,

wondering what was going to happen
to their foolish little brother. Three
very sober and frightened little Foxes
they were. They understood now why
their mother had warned them to al
ways be polite TO Skunk. Little Mr..
Smarty understood this now even bet
ter than they did, and he remembered
how his mother had told him when he
had hoasted that he could kill a
Skunk that he never would get near
enough to do so.
Little Mr.. Smarty thought he was
as miserable as ne possibly could be,
but his troubles were not yet over.
He longed for his mother to come
home, for he felt that somehow she
would make things right. But when
she did come it WAS only to make him
more miserable than ever.
Mrs. Reddy knew at once what had
happened. She didn't have to be told.
She knew what had happened long be-
fore she reached home, and when she
got there she was angrier than those
little Foxes had ever seen her before.

stuff taken was found in sheds at the
rear. While search was progressing in
146 Concver, party under Assistant
District Attorney Snyder spaded up
the cellar floor in 143 Conover Street.
Information had been obtained that a
large quantity OF wood alcohol was
cached there. Nothing was found. A
quantity of liquor in bottles and jars
was taken from sheds in the rear of
this house. Cellars in several Sulli-
van Street houses also were dug into.
Mr.. Ruston had information that 100
gallons of wood alcohol in cans was
buried in cellar Official announce
ment was made last night that none Of
the liquors seized yesterday contained
wood alcohol.
The police now believe large con-
signment of alcohol in four gallon tin
containers labeled paterson Drug
Company" which is said to have been
the main objective of yesterdays raid,
was removed from cellar in Sullivan
Street before daylight Wednesday
Search Is being made, it was learned,
for an automobile truck declared to
have stood virtually all Wednesday
night near Pier "a, at the foot Of CO.
lunbia Street. This truck is said to
have borne the name of Manhattan
ington Street. No such concern as the
Paterson Drug Company is known in
Paterson.
Although wood alcohol poisonings
center for the moment in Brcoklyn's
Red Hook section, authorities seeking
it's distributors appear convinced this
does not indicate its true origin. 1t be-
came known last night that government
agents have been working in Paterson
since Monday on clews obtained
through the wood alcohol deaths of
that day, and that others under direc-
tion of Federal Agent Lord are pur-
suing a trail that points to Newark as
a possible base of supply.
Persons questioned by Federal agents
evinced fear of being seen in conver-
sation with officials. Women of whom
information was sought with regard to
occupants of premises under suspicion
maintained frightened silence. One man
expressed the general feeling when he
said:
"These people know it would be
death for them to reveal anything as to
would you like it if you lived here with
your wife and family and some morn
ing found the chalk mark on your
door? Folks living hereabout know
what the chalk mark means. 1t means
death in the family When you see
these women with white faces you
may know they are in deadly fear
| not Of government men nor of the
police, but of bootleggers. Do you
blame them for not wishing to talk ?"
Made for Local Consumption
This man said manufacturers of still
! whisky in the Red Hook section are
not connected with wood alcohol sales.
He explained the liquor distilled in the
locality is mainly for local consump-
ton, and made of good grain or the
skins of grapes after the latter have
been used in making red wine. Wood
alcohol, he declared, was distributed
by outsiders.
Brandy made by Italians from grape
skins is pure liquor" this authority
insisted. at is superior to most of the
stuff now being sold in New York as
imported. Whisky made in regular
copper stills by Red Hook people is
high class liquor. Some restaurants

The main part of the immigration
which took the land route to Inc
Dalles, met with no other obstacles
than some difficulty in crossing the
two principal rivers in their course
the John Day and Dcs Chutes and
had no accidents. TO be the first TO
reach The Dalles, the terminus OF
the migrant road in Oregon Tor
1843. was an honor that was con-
tended for by the foremost drivers
and 1 find it claimed by both Nj
nevah Ford and Kaiser.
How TO Proceed?
At The Dalles the immigrants had
still the most difficult and danger
ous portion of their journey before
them. there being neither Il road over
the rugged mountains that separated
them from the Willamette Valley,
nor boats in which to embark on
the river. 1t was too late to at
tempt opening u wagon road lhto
the Willamette Valley, distance of
so miles of extremely rough Coun-
try. and there We're few facilities for
constructing sufficient number of
boats to convey the families and
goods to their destination.
The immigration of 1S43 was diff
ferently situated from any company
that had preceded, or any that fol-
lowed it into Oregon. When II com
pany came by sea to Port Vancou-
DriN
Walla Walla, every facility for con-
tinuing their journey or prosecuting
their designs was rendered to them
by the Hudson's Bay company.
Whites party, which was only n
pack train arrived early and pro-
cecded direct to the settlement with
out any serious hindrance. But there
were nearly 900 people with their
household goods and Il large number
of cattle and horses. 1t was impoS-
siblc to meet this whole colony as
guests, and help them to their dcs-
tination with all manner of courtc-
sizes as had so often been done in
regard to smaller parties. They
must hely themselves, and help
themselves they did,
Going Down the River.
Going into the pine forests which
beauties the foothills near The
Dalles, they fclled trees and made
RATS of logs from a foot to IS inch
es in diameter and 30 feet long,
which being securely lashcd to-
gether, the wagons were taken apart
and with their loads placed upon
them. Sometimes one covered wa
gOn bed was reserved as II cabin for
women and children. A child was
born in one of these cabins on a
raft, between The Dalles and the
Cascades Others who had come
from Walla Walla by boats kept on
to the Cascades in the same manner.
Some left their wagons and stock at
The Dalles, while the greater num-
ber drove their cattle down the river,
swimming them TO tho north side,
