Rumor Of the Death Of

Former Herald Editor Vigorously In

Several weeks ago there was an I'M
founded rumor circulated in Sank
Centre, that Charles F. Hendryx,
formerly the brilliant editor of the
Herald, had passed away in Cincinnati
tt. The Herald is satisfied that this
rumor was caused by the fact that
the gentleman had paid tribute to
the memory of the late w. S. Dean,
which was published in the Herald, as
the rumor appeared about the same
time. G.. v. Morse, an old friend
of the Hepdryx family, wrote James
Hendryx at his home in Cincinnati
and the following reply written by
Mr.. Hendryx, ST., is character
istic of the gentleman and indicates
that he is still enjoying his usual good
health and vitality which his many
Sank Centre friends hope that he may
retain for many years to come. The

LAPAG[|A MURDER
STILL IS MYSTERY
Police Without Clue to SIay-
ing of Wealthy italian.
EmpIoye Held.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, Pa. October 1S.-An
intensive police dragnet today failed
to uncover clue that would aid in
solving the mystery surrounding the
death of John Lapaglia, wealthy Ital-
ian merchant whose body, clad in
silk pajamas, was found earlier in
the day in the bed of his luxuriously
furnished apartment. Attack ed while
asleep, police believe. Lapaglias' head
had been almost severed from his
body by several blows from an ak
or hatchet. a trail of blood led from
the bed to an open window where,
police believe, the slayer made his
escape
While admitting they were without
definite Information, police declare
their belief that Lapaglia was the
victim of black-handers or bootleg
gers. Expensive women's clothing
found in the apartment led to the
belief that the trail might lead to a
woman, although it was admit ed
that nothing definite had been estab-
lished
Petro Angelo, employed by Lapag-
liza as a clerk, who discovered the
body, carefully covered by silk bed
clothing, is being held upon a tech
nical charge while the investigation
is progressing.
Lapaglia came to Pittsburgh a
month ago from Cleveland. Ohio.

HAVANA. Cuba, October 1S-
Charges that a steamer which they
believed was a United Fruit Company
vessel refused to rescue them when
their fishing ship. the Aguila, was
helpless and sinking, were filed with
the captain of the port of Havana and
the American consulate general here
today by Capt. Rimbau and the nine
men of the Aguila.
The fishing vessel, a tugboat of 1876
tons gross was disabled in the trQpi-
cal storm and after drifting help
lessly for three days signalled a pass
ing steamer at o'clock am. October
IA, when in latitude 22.21 north. longi-
tude 86.29 west, Capt. Rimbau said.
He declared he recognized the steamer
as Il United Fruit boat, apparently
bound from Costa Rica to New
Orleans. The vessel replied to his
red rockets by green ones and was
within 400 feet the complaint charged,
but passed on. At the Offices of the
United Fruit Company here it was
said nothing was known of the al
legged incident.
The Aguila's crew was taken off
late in the day of October H. by the
American tanker, Albert E. Watts.
and brought to Havana, but the

ITALIANS BOMB TWO
VILLAGES FROM AIR
Punitive Expedition Against Arabs
Goes 373 Miles Over
Desert.
By the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated IreSs-
BENGAZI, Cirenaica, Africa, Octo-
ber 1S.-An important air bombing
punitive expedition has been carried
out by the Italian forces in the Oasis
of Gialo against the rebel organiza-
ton formed by the Senussi Arabs.
Two army airplanes bombarded the
villages of Fehrra and Lebba on the
oasis for half an hour, while the
Arabs below subjected them to a sus-
tanned rifle fire. One of the planes
was struck five times without suffer-
ing serious damage.
The expedition was conducted with
great difficulty because of the dis
tance from this center and because of
bad visibility. The two airplanes.
however, crossed the desert, bonn
barded the rebels and returned to
Bengazi after having flown distance
of approximately 373 miles and hav-
ing remained in the air eight hours.
The authorities believe that the
expedition, besides material results of
the bomba rdment of the aviators, will
undoubtedly have a great moral ef-
feet on the population of Cirenaica.
Since d'Annunzio's flight over Vienna
this is regarded as the most auda-
cious attempt made by Italian army
aviators.

CANDIDATES NAMED
FOR BRITISH RACE
Many Nominations With
drawn by Labor to En-
barrass Opponents.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, October dissemination
day for the October 90 elections
brought no great number of sur
prises, although there were many un-
expected nominations and Withdrawals,
mostly by the Labor party with the
object Of embarrassing labors oppo
nents as much as possible by forcing
triangular contests to it's own ad
vantage.
1t was impossible tonight to obtain
a reliable analysis of the nomina-
tions to show the position concerning
triangular contests, which, while
numerous, will be fewer than at the
last elections. The organization
headquarters of the various parties
were shy about giving particulars as
to the arrangements made among
the different parties for avoiding
such contests. The attitude of these
headquarters, it was explained, is
that it is exclusively the concern of
local organizers, over whom there is
no official jurisdiction. The reason
for the attitude is said to be fear
over the construction the electors
are likely to put upon any such pacts
between the opposing parties.
The pact between the Conservatives
and Liberals to exclude Labor is not
altogether popular in the Liberal
press, where it is realized that the
withdrawal of Liberal candidates
will throw considerable Liberal votes
on the Labor side because the Lib
erals, who are strong for free trade.
still suspect that former Premier
Baldwin and his party, if returned
to power, may try to get protective
duties by back door" methods.
Conservatives See Gains.
Conservative leaders continue opti-
mistic that they will increase their
seats in the Commons from 25S in
the last Parliament to 800, hoping to
gain at the expense of both the Lib
erals and Laborites. The Labor party
has put new candidates in many con-
tests where they consider there is a
chance of splitting the opponents
votes. Unopposed returns by reason
of today's nominations are: Conserv-
atives, 16; Laborites, 9; Liberals, 6;
NationaliSts, l.
Election oratory is increasing. Pre-
mler Macdonald, in better shape to-
day, made speeches at Aberavon and
Abergwynf, devoted chiefly to coun-
i'ering what he declared to be the mis-
representations by his opponents con-
cernlng incidents surrounding the
case against Editor Campbell of the
workers Weekly. He again had en-
| thusiastic receptions wherever he
spoke.
In Ulster the Republicans fulfilled
their threat, nominating many can
oidates for seats. All of them are in
interment camps. The Nationalists in
Ulster regard this Republican inva-
sion with disfavor. They believe that
in every case the Republican candi-
dates will be obliged to forfeit their
deposits of f150 through failure to
poll one-eighth of the total votes
cast.
Thirty-Two Unopp0sed.
Thirtytwo candidates were elected
to the House of Commons by accla-
| nation today, their candidates. being

tives returned is, the Laborites 8, the

NEW YORK, October 1s-A raid
tonight OF Scow, which for two
years has lain at anchor in the shadow
OF the Statue of Liberty, disclosed a
counterfeiting plant which Govern
ment agents said they believed was
operated by an international ring,
which has been flooding the country
with bogus nickels, dimes and quar-
ters for seven years.
Three counterfeit Treasury De-
partment moulds were found on the
scow, the Sparklight, one of five
crafts raided during the day. The
coins found were said by secret serv-
ice operatives to be perfect in detail.
but lacking in the weight of good
coin. quantity of metal alloy, the
raw material of counterfeiting, was
also confiscated.
One Man Arrested.
Angelo Nese was arrested charged
with counterfeiting and violation of
the Nolstead law. the latter charge
being based on discovery of a large
still on the Sparklight- The raiding
party boarded another scow anchored
nearby in the hope of capturing other
members of the alleged ring but only
found another still, which they con-
fiscated. They lay in waiting aboard
the Sparklight until after 8 o'clock
tonight in the belief that other
counterfeiters might put off from
shore but to no avail
Early today three other boats were
raided. one of them the Sachem, bein 6
boarded only after n dozen rounds
had been fired over its bow. Eleven
men were arrested from these three
boats and liquor valued at more than

Raid Is Surprise.
Shortly before dusk Federal officers
embarked in the Manhattan, one of
the police navy and cruised past the
Statue of Liberty. Just as it seemed
they were about to pass the innocent
looking scow anchored within a hun
dred feet of the little island on which
the statue stands, the helm was
thrown hard over. AS the police boat
bumped sharply against the side OF
the Sparklight the agents and a
squad of uniformed police leaped to
the deck of the suspected craft.
They found Nese in the cabin. fully
armed, they said. and after hand =
cutting him, searched the boat, dis
covering the bogus money, plaster
molds and the still. Nese told them
he lived on the scow and refused to
talk about the evidences of whole
sale counterfeiting. 1t developed
that the scow is owned by New
York firm, which was completely eX-
onerated of any knowledge of the
use to which their property had been
put.
The investigation will continue in
the hope of rounding up the rest of
the ring, whose headquarters agents
are convinced they have discovered
in the Sparklight.
