When DR.. Myers finally was in
formed of the death by Police Cap
tain Herbert Fletcher, investigation
was launched by Myers to deter
mine source of the delay.
First attempt to take the child
to a hospital was made early today,
when a sister and the father made
separate calls to the hospital for an
ambulance.
Told to Wait
Both were informed by an attache
of the hospital "out patient" depart
ment, that DR.. C. F. Ingersoll, at
tending physician, wished to give a
certain kind of medicine "a chance
to act" before the child was ad-
mitted to the hospital.
When pleas of both failed, police
were summoned to the home, where
the child lay in an unconscious con-
dition.
Motorpolicemen Reinkein and
Mause called the hospital for an
ambulance, but were informed none
would be sent. The officers then
called Fletcher, who tried without
result to reach DR.. Myers by phone.
When Reinkin and Mause re-
turned to the Mccoy home the child
was dead.
Attended Since Thursday
Investigation at the hospital
showed the child had been attend
ed since Thursday, when she was
stricken, by DR.. Ingersoll, who left
with the parents bottle of medi-
cine, ordering it administered as
directed.
When the dead child's sister
called for the ambulance, she said
she was informed that her appeal
would be given to Dr. Ingersoll.
Subsequent call by a neighbor
drew the same answer from hos
pitaf attache, it was said
When the police called the second
time, an attache informed them
that the message will be sent to
the doctor"
Told After Death
Or. Myers was not told OF the
appeals until after death of the
girl, he said.
The child's father, unemployed
for three years, worked for the
township trustee one day a week to
obtain basket of food.
In connection with his probe of
situation, DR.. Myers said that
problem of handling the rapidly in
creasing number of "out patient"
cases is one of the greatest now
faced by the hospital. The staff of
physicians is small in comparison to
the number of cases being handled,
he said.

DULL SKIES, RAIN
TO CONTINUE here
Little Change in Weather Is
Forecast for City.

Motorists expecting to enjoy an
other Spring-like weekend are due
for disappointment, according to
the forecast today of J. H. Arming-
ton, weatherman.
Today's condition of overcast skies
and showers will continue Sunday
with another marked temperature
rise, according to the forecast.
After light rain fell internationally
during the night, the city awoke
this morning to find daylight sud-
denly turned to darkness about 8
when a dense cloud condition and
excessive rain reduced visibility to
near zero in the downtown area.
Arlington said the condition was
due to smoke being held close to
the ground by heavy cloud forma-
tons overhead. Light returned
within a few minutes, however, be-
fore a strong wind.

Farewell Appearance al
Metropolitan Made by
Singer.
BY LOUIS F. KEEMLE

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-The semi
ribald, but heartfelt strains of For
He's a jolly Good Fellow rang
from orchestra pit to roof of the
Metropolitan opera house Friday
afternoon while a CRAVING old man
bowed and smiled between tears at
his valedictory.
Antonio Scott, who has sung for
thirty-three years to the halloWed
Golden Horseshoe, made his fare
well appearance before retiring, at
the age of 81, to a peaceful twilight
in his native Italy.
An audience of nearly 1000, pack
ing the old house from wall to wall,
cheered, shouted, sang, applauded
and heaped flowers on the stage in
honor of the grand old man, "be-
loved villain" of American opera.
Sings FavOrite Role
Scott, whose memory always will
be inSeparable from that of the
great Caruso, made his last appear
ance on the same stage where he
first appeared in America thirty
three years ago. Then it was the
title role in the light-hearted Don
Giovanni" Friday it was in his
favorite part of Chim-Fen, vii
famous opium-den keeper of San
Francisco's Chinatown in Zanoni's
'L'Oracolo."
1t was whispered around the
Metropolitan that with Scotti's de-
parture, it would be many years, if
ever, before "L'Oracolo" is heard.
Great Demonstration Given
There has seldom been such q
demonstration as occurred on the
dying notes of "L'Oracolo." The
vast audience rose to it's feet and
began to applaud and cheer. Mems
hats and women's gloves fluttered in
the air. Flowers rained down on the
stage apron, where Scott stood,
half overcome and reckoning his
fellow-singers to join in receiving
the ovation.
They refused, and for most of the
time he stood alone before the
tumult, accepting with unaffected
modesty the tribute Z
When he could still the noise for
a moment, he made simple speech
of thanks, the appeal Of which
started the demonstration all over
again.
Sing "JOlly Good Fellow"
The enthusiasm reached its height
when Lawrence Tibbett, baritone of
the Metropolitan, arose in an audi
ence box and sang For He's Jolly
Good Fellow"
The audience joined in the old
song and a fresh rain of flowers
poured on the stage.
Twenty-Five minutes after the
start of the ovation, the audience
still fingered, reluctant to dispense
Floral tributes were borne in pro-
cession into his dressing room
ranging from a modest bunch OF
violets to elaborate wreaths six feet
high, decorated with the rarest
flowers and gold inscriptions.

The prime minister regards
the debt question as the out

He wants to give his personal
attention, as much as possible,
to efforts to reach a debt set

Chancellor of the Exchequer Ne

be a member of the mission, al
though he will be busy on his
budget in March and April.
Stanley Baldwin was mentioned
as a possible member. He negoti-
ated the original debt funding
agreement with the United States.
Pending receipt of State Secretary
Henry L. Stimsons formal invita-

Well informed circles said, however,
that the government was dis
appointed that six weeks must
elapse, before the British and Amer

The government was said to still
hope preliminary negotiations could
be carried out through diplomatic
channels, before the change in
American administrations.
The British reply to the Amer

drafted at cabinet meeting Mon
day.

Preparations Are Begun
By United Press

~ CHitCn PfCSS
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-Wash-
ington and London were preparing
today to revise downward Great
Britain's $4,000, 100000 war debt to
the United States.
State Secretary Henry L. Slim
son called Sir Ronald Lindsay. Brit
iSh ambassador, to the state de-
partment Friday night and gave
him the eagerly awaited news that
the United States would be ready to
discuss debt reduction shortly after
March 4.
The British were invited to send
a commission to Washington to
carry on the negotiations.
StimSon'S assurance was based on
an agreement made at the White
House conference Friday by Presi-
dent Hoover and President Elect.
Roosevelt
StimsOn to Cooperate
They decided that the Hoover adj
ministration should prepare for the
debt discussions so that they may
begin promptly after Mr.. Roosevelt
enters the White House.
While the British commission is
being formed, Stimson and Treas
ury Secretary Ogden Mills will help
Roosevelt prepare for the negotia-
tons.
Beginning this cooperative pro-
gram, Stimson discussed the sit
uation Friday night with Professor
Raymond Moley, one of Roosevelt's
advisers.
The administration is hopeful
that Roosevelt soon will name his
secretary of state.
Some officials here expect that
Norman H. Davis will succeed Slim
son. Davis, although a Democrat,
has reprC scented the Hoover admin
istratio, at Geneva for the past
year AID is on intimate terms with
many European statesmen.
First to Ask Revision
The present American debt
agreement was negotiated in 1923
by Lord Balfour and Montagu
Norman, governor of the Bank of
England.
Britain was the first major power
to fund its debt, agreeing to pay
S4,6OO,O0O,00O at 3.3 per cent inter-
est over a period of sixty-two years.
Under this agreement the interest
over the sixty-two years amounts to
more than s6,OOOOOO,OOO. France
and Italy, funding their debts later,
obtained more liberal settlements.
Possibly that factor, combined
with the circumstance that Britain
paid its last Dec. Is installment Of
s95 $4,000, while France and some
other nations defaulted, prompted
Mr.. Roosevelt to select Britain as
the first country to profit by debt
reduction. Also, the British were
the first to ask for it.
London's request for revision was
made in note dated Nov. 10, 1882.

TILT WITH JOBLESS
Rioting Again Breaks Out at
Relief Stations.
By I nited Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 81. - Additional
precautionary measures at relief
stations were planned by authorities
today after half a dozen officers
we're injured in battle with more
than 1000 demonst1 ators. The riot
was the second this week at relief
centers.
Agitators, demanding cash in
stead of paper" had planned out
breaks at four stations. They were
quickly repealed at three, but re-
peated calls for reserve police squads
we're necessary before demon
strators, welding baseball bats and
standards, were dispersed at the
fourth.
The outbreaks were prompted, po-
lice believed, by plans to finger
print all persons receiving food at
various stations IN the city.
