NEW YORK. March 12.-Mrs. John
Wallace Riddle, wife of the United
States Ambassador to Argentina, whose
resignation was accepted yesterday by
President Coolidge, has explained from
her home at Pennington. Conn, how a
series of sea mishaps which she expert
enced was the cause of her husbands s
retirement from foreign diplomatic
service.
Mrs. Riddle, then Miss Pope, was
passenger on the steamship Lusitania
when il was hit by German torpedo
off the coast of Ireland in 1915. Among
the 1,19S victims were her two travelling
companions. Mrs. Riddle was thrown
unconscious into the water The shock
of the experience disabled her several
months, and produced in her mind a
dread of the sea that made ocean travel
for her an ordeal
A year after the Lusitania disast
she was married to Mr.. Riddle.
Soon after our marriage" said Mrs.
Riddle. "it became necessary for US
to go abroad, in spite of my dfstaste
for sea voyaging. On the trip from
England to Iceland a boiler blew up
aboard our ship. On the way back
the vessel burned at its pier in Nor
way. The two experiences, linked
with the Lusitania horror, greatly
deepened my distrust of the ocean"
However, when Mr. Riddle was ap-
pointed Ambassador to Argentina,
she went with him. Returning to
New York in six months she again
experienced Ill luck.
"On the way NORTH she said, the
rudder of oar ship jammed, the YES
sci nearly turned turtle, and for a
time we were In great peril. For
three months after landing / was i'll.
Now my physician has absolutely
forbidden me venturing on the water.
1 cannot go with my husband and he
cannot stay with me and retain his
post This Winter, when ne was home
on sick leave, we decided he would
have to resign. / took a letter from
my physician. explaining the circum-
stances, to Secretary of State Hughes
so the State Department would un
derstand.
"Mr. Riddle sailed for Argentina
last month in order to be at his post
when resigning."

THE DEATH PENALTY
 IN CHICAGO

After giving the impression that it was a city where the coddling of murIercrs had become the prime requisite of jurisprudence. Chicago jury evidently has made an attempt to correct the current view. The two Drake hotel dcspcradocs will be kept ont of mischief in the great beyond.
 From the argument of counsel for the defense, it was again discernible thai a life term in prison was con sidcrcd much more desirable than the death penalty, Where there is life there is hope it appears, and aside from the possibility Of escap- ing from prison walls, there is also tine ultimate probability of g pardon. I}ut the desreradoes had no great fund at their disposal 10 hire q dozen or so brain experts 10 prove they wore insane at the time they went wrong, and the lugubri- ous result was the pair will hang.
 The verdict will not hcarten other criminals in Chicago. The shooting business remains a procarious un- dortaking at times.
