Another Sister Sought

An informant of the Washing
ton Times today declared that

he was out Of the city, to attempt
to locate another sister Of the
dead man who is said to be living
in New York. AS far as can be
learned this sister holds q differ.
ent view Of the death Of her
brother than Mrs. Surette.
Department Of Justice officers
and those connected with the
investigation refused either to
confirm or deny that another
sister was being sought. Neither
would they throw any light on
what Mrs. Surette thought Of her
brothers death.
Burkinshaw, angry at the pub
licity given his investigation, has
refused to allow a bit Of informa-
ton regarding its progress to be
given out. Hoover and his aids
also are extremely unconlmunica-
tive. Semi-official sources, close
to both the Department Of
Justice and to the District At.
torney's office have not been so
close mouthed, however.
1t was learned that Mrs. Rogers
recently settled a suit for $750.000
filed against her and two other
defendants by q former secretary
Of the oil king. who charged that
she had caused him to lose his
position when he revealed to Col
onel Rogers certain facts about
her past. The stipulation, said to
have been agreed upon between
attorneys in the case, was reputed
to involve $500,000. The case was
to have been tried before q referee
in New York city, but did not
reach beyond preliminary stages.

preparing to leave the room when
Miles expressed a wish for a
highball. According to the story
hospital authorities told Burkin
shaw, Mrs. Miles prepared the
drink.
First word of the tragedy
reached the ears of DR.. e. j.
Grass, house physician at the
h oSpftal, when Mrs. Miles
screamed. At that time DR..
Grass was across the hall treating
another patient.
Rushing into the room he saw
Miles gaSping for breath. his
face black and blue from as
phyxiation. The nurse came a
minute later. The physician sent
for an emergency hypodermic
and also for the oxygen tanks.
They were used without avail,
for the patient died within three
minutes, BurkinShaw was told.
No autopsy was performed. A
certificate of death was sent to
the District Of Columbia Health
Department, which showed that
Miles died of pulmony embolism.
or the clotting Of blood on the
lung.
The body was prepared for
burial by local undertaken and
sent to Philadelphia, where 1t
was inferred in Laurel Hill Gene
terry.
Burkinshaw is said to have re
ceived information from a New
York newspaper to the effect
that something was strange about
Miles death. Investigation re-
vealed the death certificate was
faulty in that it gave the time
of death at 5 a. M, when the
diplomat actually died late In the
afternoon of that day.
Delving into the case, Burkin
shaw is understood to have
found he needed the aid of the
criminal investigation bureau OF
the Government and Hoover'S Of

home of the former Mrs. Miles

in the United States, and father
of Millicent Rogers Ramos, for
mer bride of Count Saim Won
Hoogstraten Of Austria, revealed
the millionaire and his. wife were
not at their Southampton, l.. I
home, but were motoring in the
South.
Colonel Rogers married Mrs
Miles q short time after Miles
death and within a few days OF
the time he was. divorced from
his former wife by a court In
Holland.
A sister of the dead man, Mrs
Thomas Surette, social leader OF

 R|C USERS 0F SILVER

NEW YORK, May 21, (P- Re- cent fluctations in the price of silver reflet the delicate balance of a q u s t ment that exists in world economic affairs To fully understand the present depres- sion one must bear in mind that silver is a commodity whose price moves in sympathy with the gen. eral commodity prices, according to the index, published by the New York Trust Company
 The principal single factor in the recent spectacular decline has probably been India. At present, about half the worlds popula- tion uses silver as standard val ue. India and China have long since been the chief markets for the metal Tn India, however, such changes are taking shape in her monetary system that silver may soon be relegated to second place.
 Nevertheless it is probable that India will remain a larger user of the metal, as the poorer class, constituting vast majority of the population, is accustomed to invst it's small savings by hoard ing it's silver. In addition, silver will continue to be used for orna- mentS for women, as in many sec- tlons of the country this type of property is the only thing women can hold, on their becoming widow ed.
 The effects of the depression ln silver are worldwide. The de- cline in price makes itself felt especially in business dealings with silver monetary countries. such as China and Abyssinia. The Chinese exchange fluctates with the price of silver. Goods bought on gold basis and paid for in oepreciated silver converted into gold exchange cost considerably more, necessarily increased dom estic prices.
 This will affect not only our direct trade with China. but also it's indirect consequences are i'm portant- For instance, England
 buys American cotton, and China IS one of her best customers for cotton goods Thus in various counts the American producer is strongly interested in the world demand for silver
 The British and Indian govern ments have agreed to impose A countervailing excise duty on the domestic silver production equal to the import duty of 4 annas Der ounce, which became effective on March I.
 The existing tariff schedule will
 pc amended upward from 30 per cent to 38 per cent on silver plates. silver thread and other manufactures according to the
 American trade commission at Calcutta.
