ANGRY FATHER
STAYS FRIEND

CHICAGO. March IS GN.s).
Andrew Hoagland, 35, was in jail
today awaiting an inquest into
the death Of his best friend.
A blow from Hoagland'S fist
caused the death Of Edward
Kraftheffer, IS, in a quarrel over
Hoagland's 9-year-old daughter,
Caroline, for whom Kraftheffer
had avowed his love.
The men had been friends for
10 years, and Kraftheffer had
been a roomer in the Hoagland
home for the past 18 months, but
it was not until Saturday night
Kraftheffer confessed his love and
asked permission to marry the
child.
Hoagland ordered his friend out
of the house, and they parted
peaceably, but yesterday Krafthef-
fer returned and repeated his pro-
teStationS of love and insisted he
be allowed to marry the child.
The men scuffled, and Krafthef-
fer went down, his head striking
the wall. Hoagland tried to re-
vive his friend, but failed. He
called a physician, who pronounced
Kraftheffer dead.

of Present IS

MANCHESTER, England, March
IS UN.S).-Opening q new
chapter in British imperial rela-
tions," England plans to create a
new Pacific fleet with a minimum
of 80 warships, the Manchester
Guardian said today.
Five battleships and 10 cruisers
will be included. There are now
only 35 British warships in the Pa
cific zone, and no battleships.!.
Behind the Guardians forecast

ality, before the House of Com
mons, when he announced that
Britain was adopting a two-hemis-
phere naval standard. j.
Sir Samuel said all naval rivalry
between the United States and
Great Britain was at an end.
The new Pacific fleet. the
Guardian said, will be the joint
concern of the United Kingdom
and the dominions.
With its main base at Sings-
pore, the Pacific fleet would pro-
tect Australia, New Zealand, India.
South America and the Pacific
coast Of Canada.

NEW YORK. March is dN.SO
Capture of the Chrysler Corpora

strikers yesterday was termed "a
form of revolution" by K. T. Keller
president of the company.
In nationwide message to dis
tributors and dealers, describing
the company'S position in the con.

You will recognize that the
capture of our plants in time of

the plants today, is a form of

eight plants.
According to Keller, mail trucks
were stopped by the unions rep

prevented from doing business in
its own offices and its files and

Pointing out that the seizure oc-

Ter added:
This union Is demanding a
closed shop. They have stated
that their demands mean one of
three things: Either an employe
signs up with the union; or he
will be OStracized and subjected
to int0lerable intimidation and
coercion, both in the shop and
at home; OF union men will re-
fuse to work with him.
Under these conditions, how
ever designated, it Is impossible

AS to the company's labor rela-

Gas is well known, there was
no dispute over wages and work

substantially in excess Of 80
cents an hour, and the weekly,

our employees have been not only
the highest in the history Of the

mittee. today called upon Secre.

ton"
Declaring it unusual" to have
the committee diSbanded "in so
abrupt a manner, without as
much as an explanation" Gull
man cited the committees &C.
complishments since its establish
ment in December, 1895, at the
suggestion Of President Roose-
welt. and in his letter to Secre-
tary Roper said:
'rTt Is of no personal impOr.
tance to its members that the
National Committee on Safety
at Sea is disbanded. 1t is. how
ever, of paramount Importance

tiOnS required by law? win
there be any change in this
bureaus policy Of renting 80
per cent Of fines assessed for
violations of the navigation
laws? What of the highly un-
satisfactory status Of maritime
IabOr?"
Referring to a report issued by
the committee in April of 1896, "in-
dicating the direction which tu-
ture activities must take and point
ing out the need for funds if an
effective safety campaign was to
be carried on" Cullman declared
the safety campaign outlined "Still
awaits action"
$S5,OOO Appropriated
Cullman said:
Despite the urgent need in.
dicated and despite the fact that
S35,O0O had been appropriated
by Congress for the work of Acct
dent Prevention COMMITTEES, no
funds have ever been received by
the committee. Its members are
now presumably to assess them
selves to meet the costs of print
ing, mailing and other legitimate
expenditures, tOtalling $500.

in learning what use has been
made Of the SS5, 900 appropriated

The board further charged the

Commenting on a strike called
in six of the company's plants in
New York, Connecticut and Ohio,
the deciSoin declared:
"The board found that the

strike being called after the
