MAN HAS TEETH EXTRACTED:
 DIES FROM LOSS OF BLOOD
George H. Andrews, B, of 5 Wilcox Street, Found
 Dead in Bed This Morning by Wife

Loss of blood after having three teeth extracted Saturday. was given by Dr. John Purney. deputy medical examiner, as the cause of the death of George H. Andrews. age 53 years. of 55 Wilcox street. The deputy medical examiner stated that al- though his study of the case has not yet been finished. the only explana- ton that he could give for the mans sudden demise was that he bled to death.
 Dr. Purney explained that MT. An drews had what is known in medical terms as hemophillia. This is a lack of the properties in the blood which cause clotting and stop the flow of blood from any wound. Inquiries of Mrs. Andrews revealed the fact that some time ago the man had had a tooth extracted and he all but died at the time from the loss of blood.

 White Plains, N. Y.. Feb. 6 ReA copy of the will of Henry Judd Gray, recently electrocuted with Mrs. Ruth Snyder for the murder of her hus- band, was received through the mail by Surrogate Slater today but was not accepted for probate.

 The reasons for this were that the document gave two residences" one of them being Sing Sing prison, and that it was copy and not the or- iginal as the law requires. It was said at the surrogate's office that the double entry under residence might make the will illegal.
 The copy was merely held pend irg the next move of Samuel l.. Miller, Gray's attorney. who was not in his New York office when the copy arrived.

 Besides Sing Sing prison. which was not mentioned by name but designated as 354 Hunter street, Os- sining, Gray gave his residence as 37 Wayne avenue, East Orange, N. J. This was the address of the house where he lived with his wife and daughter during the time he was carrying on an illicit love affair with Mrs. Snyder.
 Other Requests

L0WDEN FILES AN ILLINOIS PETITION
First Action Taken to Advance
 Him to Presidency
IS NOW OUT FOR VOTES
Former Illinois Governors Friends Feel Confident He Will Garry H. Farm States.

Chicago, Feb. UP) - Frank o. Lowden has filed a petition for place on the ballot in the repub- lican presidential primary in Illi- nois, the United Press learned to- day.
 | It is the first state in which Low den has filed.
 In Secretary of State once The petition was in the office of Secretary of State Louis Emmerson with scores of petitions for state offices which cannot be made puh- lie until a court injunction is lifted. the United Press was informed. Filing of the petition marks the opening of the second stage of the Lowden campaign.
 Heretofore, although it has been definitely known that Lowden con- sidered himself candidate. the ac- tivity in his behalf has been largely person-to-person work of laying the foundations for the campaign From now on, the campaign be. comes an active effort to obtain votes. although Lowden himself according to Clarence F. Buck, his campaign manager, will not cam paign actively in the primaries.
 Tine Illinois filing was held up by question as to the legality of the | ct fa ,ntr 1evn A%o&o preme court recently upheld it. but an injunction restraining the secre- tary of state from acting upon pe- titions still is in effect. It probab bly, will be lifted within a day or two Filing Elsewhere Soon Lowdcn probably will file soon in several other states. although it has not been decided definitely which state campaigns he will enter, Buck said
 He expressed complete satisfac. tion with the present status of the campaign.
 Carry Illinois
 'Lowden will carry every Illinoi, district outside of Cook county and several in Chicago" he said. Tt will be virtually a clean sweep unless Mayor Thompson organizes his Chi cago strongholds against him. Even in that case. Lowden will carry II. linois easily"
 He was equally confident of the Dakotas. Iowa. and most of the | farm states of the middlewest. "Lowden won't file in any flaw orite son states" he said. "Whether he will enter all those without fav- orite sons is problematical." He indicated Lowden probably would file in Michigan. where Her bert Hoover has been reported to be very strong.
