ELMS Of AMERICA
MENACEDBY GERM
Tree Regarded as Typical OF
This Country Threatened
With Great Injury.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The elm, regarded by many as the
typical American tree, is threatened by
the Dutch elm disease which, authori-
ties say, may kill all the elm trees over
extensive areas if not controlled.
The American Tree Association urges
owners of elms to examine them at once
to see whether they are infected. One
of the first symptoms is the sudden wilt
ing of leaves. Later, affected parts OF
the tree lose their foliage. Another in
dication is a brownish discoloration in
the sapwood under the bark of twigs
and branches.
Procedure Outlined.
Charles Lathrop Pack. president of the
association, says the only positive ldentl-
flcation of the disease is by making
laboratory cultures of the fungus taken
from the brown streaks in the sapwood.
He suggests that when indications OF
the disease appear. the limbs or tWlgS
be sent either to DR. R. P. White, plant
pathologist at the New jersey agrlcul-
tural experiment station at New Bruins
wick, or to the Dutch elm disease lab
oratory at Wooster, Ohio.
Several States have issued warnings to
beware of the disease which was dis
covered in this country for the first
time in 1890 1t has recently been
found in the vicinity of Maplewood,
South Orange and East Orange, N. j.,
and also on trees in Cleveland and Gin
cinnati. Lewis E. Staley, chief OF the
Department Of Forests In Pennsylvania,
says the disease is likely to appear IN
that State.
Some Of the most celebrated trees In
America are elms Those at Yale,
Princeton and Oberlin College are
famous. It was beneath the one at the
corner of the campus that Operhn was
founded 100 years ago.
Prominent IN History.
George Washington is supposed to
have taken command of the Continental
Army beneath huge elm at Cambridge.
A descendant of this elm is in the
grounds of the American Tree Associa-
ton here. At Croydon. Ind. stood an
elm beneath which the constitution OF
the State was adopted in 1916.
In Central Park, New York City. is
an elm planted by King Edward the
VII, when he visited the United
States as the Prince of Wales. Near 1t
rises another planted by the present
Prince of Wales. Thousands Of ehnS

Vcentennial year and registered on the

Annulment or Divorce.
She said she would seek an annul-

The separation resulted, the princess

Marriage Quiet Affair.
A day or so later they obtained a

quietly. Last night the princess denied
a report that she had married the
prince to spite" another man whom
she loved.

COSHOCTON, Ohio, August %
Bound and weighted down with ham,

body of Fred S. Wallace, 61-year-old
missing newspaper publisher, was found
in the Muskingum River two miles
from here last night.

ago and the circumstances of his death
At Loss to Explain.
Neither Craig nor Lyons was able to
advance any theory as to how the vic
tim met death, or to indicate whether
the publisher had any enemies who
might have resorted to violence.
Wallace, who was publisher and edi-
tor of the Coshocton Tribune, was last
seen alive when he left the newspaper
Office early Sunday morning, apparently
to walk to his home, one block away.
For two days his family feared he
had suffered a lapse of memory due to
an illness for which he had been under
treatment. Yesterday his son, Robert,
a Cleveland newspaper man, asked au-
thorities to make a Statewide search
for his father.
Cuts Found on Head.
Two young men camping along the
river found the body on the edge of the
stream TIE head bore cuts over the
right eye and the right ear. his ankles
were bound with baling wire. ploW-
point was fastened to his clothing, and
a hammer had been stuck in his belt.
The pockets contained slugs similar
to those used in printing offices, Wal
laces watch, and a spectacle case. At
the Tribune Office. employees reported
the publishers bill-fold and other val
uableS had been left there.
County authorities said Wallace'S car
had not been removed from the garage
at his home. The campers who found
the body told police they saw an object
they thought was a log floating in the
river Monday, and suggested they might
have seen the mans body at that time.

fluence reaches even the juries, certainly
in their selection.
In the course of the investigation into
metropolitan affairs by the legislative
committee of which Judge Seabury was
counsel, numerous cases were disclosed
to demonstrate the corruption of the
machinery of law enforcement. Several
of the judges of the minor courts were
smirched with evidence Of their sub
servience to the political machine. One
of them disappeared before the begin
ming of the inquiry and has never since
been found. Much of the graft of the
political racket was relatively trifling,
but there was clear evidence that the
big game was being played by those
vested by the manipulated votes Of the
people with responsible Offices.

Millennium" is defined as "any period

the like" To be content with an evil
