MYSTERIOUS DEATHS
Of HUSBANDS PROBED

CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 3,-Act-
in1 upon orders of County Prosecu-
tor Edward c.. Stanton, Coroner A.
P. Hammond was expected today to
exhume the body of a man buried
here and to examine it for traces
Of poison, which. if found, is expect
ed to result in the prosecution of
woman for murder committed for
S11 600 insurance.
The post-mortem examination was
ordered following the questioning of
the woman, who is being held on
charges which have no connection
Wisn the murder. Coroner Hammond
said the examination probably would
take several days.
che woman under suspicion is
known to have been married five
times, and recently is said to have
acquired her sixth husband. Three
of her husbands, Prosecutor Stan
ton said, died under mysterious cir
run1stances. In addition, he said,
two children by her first marriage,
died from what was claimed at the
time to be accidental poisoning. The
woman was divorced from her first
two husbands. Her third husband
died in 1917, and her fourth in 1919,
Stanton said.
The third husband, Stanton said,
carried $1,000 insurance, while the
fourth was insured for $4,000.
Her fifth husband was former
soldier. She married him in Pitts
borg seven months after the death
of Ter fourth husband, and came
here to live. He died suddenly about
a year ago, leaving government in
sHrance of $1,000. Efforts to have
this increased to $4,000 failed.
The woman claimed that death in
this instance was due to her hus-
band having been gassed overseas
and no physician was called, Star,
ton said.
No traces of disability in the gov
eminent records of this man could
be found, according to Stanton.
The suspicious circumstances were
reported to Prosecutor Stanton by
officials of the Red Cross, which
since her arrest has been caring for
two children of the woman by her
second marriage.

FORD MOD|F|ES
HIS OFFER AGAIN

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Henry
Ford's offer to develop the govern
ment's nitrate and power projects
at Muscle Shoals, Ala, was modified
again today by w. B. Mayo, chief
engineer for the Detroit manufac-
turer.
Announcement Of the new change
was made before the senate agricul-
ture committee following the request
of Chairman Norris, made at yes.
terday's hearing, that the language
of Ghe proposal clearly state what
priced power would be used in the
manufacture of fertilizer.
Senator Norris contended that the
cheapest power developed at Mus
Gle Shoals should be used in making
of fertilizers rather than for manu-
featuring metals or automobile
parts.
When Mr.. Mayo resumed his tes-
timony on the Ford offer today, he
Immediately called attention to the
modification made overnight by
which it was agreed "to operate nj
trate plant No. 2, using the most
economical source of power, in the
production of nitrogen and other
commercial fertilizers (said capacity
being equal to approximately 110,-
900 tons of ammonium nitrate per
annum) throughout the lease pc
riod."
Senator Norris and other commit
teemen expressed satisfaction with
the alteration.
Objection was indicated by the
Nebraska senator and others to the
section giving the American Farm
bureau, the National Grange and
the Farmers Educational and Co.
operative Union of America repre-
sentation on the board which de-
termines the cost of manufacture
and sale of fertilizers.
Senator Norris declared the organ
izations changed in complexion and
personnel and might not live during
the 100 years of the contract. Spe-
cial interests might also secure con-
troll of the organizations, the sena-
tor said, and he believed congress
should reserve the right to change
the names of teh organizations
whenever it thought best for the
public's interest
The senate committee adjourned
shortly after noon, Chairman Norris
requesting Mr.. Mayo to continue his
statement tomorrow.

TREASURY BUILDING y
IS BADLY DAMAGED
|NMYSTER|OUS FIRE
Early Morning Blaze at
Washington of Unknown
Origin Threatens Worlds
Money Storehouse

WASHINGTON, May 3.-The
United States treasury-the world S
greatest money storehouse-was
damaged by fire to the extent of
more than 100000 early this morn,
ing
A large portion of the roof OF
the historic structure was destroyed
by the fire which blazed fiercely fol
lowing an explosion.
Many valuable records of the de
partment probably were damaged by
the large amount of water that it
was necessary to pour on to the
roof of the burning building.
The best information obtainablc
early today was that no Liberty
bonds or currency were destroyed
These securities, with the vast hoard
of gold and silver held by the United
States, are kept in vaults in the
basement of the treasury, and the
fire was confined to the upper floors
Of the building.
Because of the huge amount of
money in the building, marines were
called out and a Gordon thrown com
pletely around the building. In addi
ton all the secret service and de.
partment of justice operatives in the
city were ordered on duty in and
outside of the building.
A most searching inquiry was be
gun by government officials today
into the cause of the fire.
# is the second blaze that has
menaced the treasury this year, the
other one Also starting on the roof
It is one of a series of mysterious
fires that have broken out on the
roofs of big Washington buildings
within the last two weeks. The
origin of these fires, such as those
in the Willard hotel ballroom, tbs
Portland hotel and Liggett's druG
store, has not been determined.
The explosion, which may have
started the fire, occurred in a room
on the top floor of the treasury
where chemicals used in making
blue prints are stored. 1t was de.
MED these chemicals were used in
testing bootleg liquor.
A hole about twenty feet in diam.
eter was blown out of the roof by
the blast. In an instant flames forty
feet high were shooting in the air
1t was not until then-about
o'clock this morning, that the fire
was discovered.

END Of COAL MINE
TROUBLES IS SEEN

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Pres;-
dent Harding believes he has found
a permanent solution of the trouble
in the coal industry-one that VIII
practically safeguard the country
against strikes in the future.
The president has outlined fia
plan to several members of congress.
1t is based, it was learned, on this
fundamental principles:
That the coal industry must be
made less seasonal. Production mus
go ahead at steady rate through
out the year, thus affording fewer
men employment, but assuring those
remaining of steady work. Distri-
button from the mines must also be
KEEP at an even flow. To accomplish
this, the government must direct
that surplus coal mined in the sum-
mer be stored in the centers Of. in
dustry and population to await the
demands of winter. 60
The plan, said by Mr.. Harding to
be still in the rough" is being
worked out with the aid of Secre-
tary Hoover.
They expect to have it completeda
within a few weeks, it is unders<ood,
and will then submit it to congress
with the request that laws be enact
ed to carry it into effect.
The president also las scheme,
the details OF which still are to be
worked out, Cor settling the present
coal strike, but he has not revealed
the nature of the step he will take
in this direction.
The house labor committee was
scheduled to wind up its inVestiga.
ton into the coal strike situation
today by voting a favorable report
on the bill by Representative Bland,
Indiana. creating a federal fact tnc-
ing agency with power to obtain
complete information from mine OPP
orators regarding costs of produce
ton, wages, prices received, etc.
There is said to be little opposition
to this bill in the committee and
only a small group against it in the
house, and it's passage is expected
within a few weeks.
The fact-that the committee is go
ing ahead with the bill, after consul
tations with President Harding, is
taken to indicate that it fits in with
the presidents own plans for set
ting the present strike and prevent
tie-ups in the future.

Florida Constable
Held for Conspiracy
To Smuggle Chinese

TAMPA. Fla, May 3.-COnstable
Norris McF'all, of Hillsborough coun-
ty, is held here charged with con-
spring to smuggle aliens into thsi
country, and the arrest of others
believed to have been implicated in a
gigantic plot to foil the immigra-
ton laws was thought imminent.
McFall was arrested on a warrant
sworn out by immigration Inspector
Whalen, following a confession said
to have been given authorities by
Captain William Hood, of the schoon-
err Eta who was arrested here a
week ago.
Captain Hood was arrested when it
was reported he had slipped 20
Cinnamon into Florida via the "un-
foreground route" Five of the ORR
entails have since been arrested
They were found wandering in a
swamp south of Tampa. Police and
immigration authorities still are
combing this city for the remaining
two dozen, who are believed in hid
ing here
Hood will be granted immunity
for his complete confession of the
smuggling plot, according to author
titles, who declare that those impli-
Gated received $4,000 for the job The
Chinese were brought here from
Gardeners, Cuba, according to
Hoods alleged confession.
Although it was known that fed
eral officers were making a thor
ough probe of human smuggling
along the Florida coact, McFall's ar.
rest came as a complete surprise
He probably will be arraigned be-
fore the United States commissioner
in the next few days, when it is
believed possible that others of prom
lnence will be charged with partici
patton in the smuggling ring.
Numerous instances of alien SNUG
Cling in the last year or so have
been uncovered by federal inVesti-
gators, it was said. Not only have
Chinese been slipped through the
coast, but other foreigners-Ger-
mans, Italians, Greeks, Poles and
Russians-have been brought in, it
was said.

he had acquired the Inack. But when

A druggist was summoned and
brought stumulants; a physician
was called and gave medicine; two

In the end HobsOn was brought

.BE:VER|DGE IN LEAD
OVER HARRY 6. NEW
III ILLINOIS RACE
Former Governor Samuel M,
RaIston Has Big Lead for
Democratic Nomination.
Most of State Heard From

WASHINGTON, May 3.-Partial
primary created near panic in Re
publican senatorial ranks today. Sen
ators were amazed and incredulOus
over the news that returns from
half the state showed former Sena-
tor Beveridge more than 1900 IN
the lead over Senator Harry New.
Less than one-fifth of the precincts
in Marion county Indianapolis, had
been reported.
The fact that many of the pre-
cincts yet to report are from Sec
tions where Beveridge should be
stronger than New added to the
gloom of News friends and party
colleagues.
Senator Jim Watson, News col.
league, was surrounded by an eager
group the minute he appeared in the
senate. He had no later informa-
ton than that conveyed in press
dispatches. New, he said, continued
confident that the total count would
show him victor for the nomination.
If New loses, his defeat will be
interpreted as a direct slap at the
Harding administration. This S
more emphatically the case with re-
gard to New than any other senator,
both because of close personal
and political friendship for Presi-
dent Harding, and because of their
political similarity. They both
stand for and represent the same
things. New is first and last party
organization man.
This is the reason Republican SEN
ators were so stirred up today, and
so alarmed at the returns. They
had counted on New winning easily
arl to discover that he was running
behind, and would win by a close
margin, if at all, caused them alarm
which they did not Tempt to con-
ceal.
The press gallery was besieged for
late returns and bulletins were ca
gerly perused on the floor and in the
cloakrooms.
1T was the women who did it,
This Succinct summing up of the
result of the Indiana senatorial pri-
mary was given this afternoon by
Senator Jim Watson, Senator News
colleague. At that hour partial re.
turns showed New considerably be-
hind former Senator Beveridge for
the Republican nomination.
"Then you think it is all over?"
Senator Watson was asked.
mot entirely" he responded. But
the woman vote, which nobody could
count, was responsible for upsetting
the situation.''
Senator Watson entered an EN-.
phatic denial of charges by some of
Senator News friends in Indiana
that Mr.. Watson was secretly for
Beveridge during the campaign. This
charge apparently was based on the
fact that Rush county, Senator Wat.
sons home, went for Beveridge.
