ices in Arlington Cemetery at 3
pm. today.
He died Monday in Fargo, N.
Oak.
In 1898. he was a Navy black
smith and a crew member of the
cruiser Marblehead. He partici-
pated in what has been called one
of the most critical fights of the
war.
The American objective in the
operation was the cutting of the
telegraph cables that linked Cuba
with Spain. Four launches en-
ployed in the operation, carried on
within few yards of the beach at
Cienfuegos. Cuba. early in the
morning Of May IL.
The men in the launches spent
three hours lifting three cables
from the floor of the sea cutting
two OF them. They worked In q
rough sea. covered by fire from
the ships but subjectedto a heavy
rifle IRE from the shore.
The third cable was lifted but
not cut. 1t was believed to be a
small cable connecting the other
two with the town of Cienfuegos.
Because of this and because of the
heavy fire of the enemy. it was
decided not to take the time to cut
it.
The lieutenant commanding the
four launches and IL other men
were wounded, two mortally.
Just what Mr.. Carter's role was
in the operation was not available
from the Navy today, but records
show he was cited for extraor-
dinary bravery under heavy fire.
AS blacksmith. presumably he
would be engaged in the actual
cutting Of the heavy cables.
He was native of Manchester,
England. A son, George H. Carter
OF Minneapolis, is listed as his
next Of kin.
Members of the Army and Navy
Legion of Valor will attend the
services for Mr.. Carter this after

Wa|cott Easy Winner
Over Wild Agramonte
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 4.-Jersey
Joe Walcott celebrated his return
to Madison Square Garden last
night by stopping wild-swinging
Omelio Agramonte of Cuba in 2:11
of the seventh of scheduled To-
rounder.
The 36-year-old veteran from
Camden, N. j., floored his crude
opponent five times. Two of the
knockdowns came in the seventh
when Referee Jack Watson wisely
stopped the uneven contest.
1t was a weird fight with mo-
ments of fierce action that had
the crowd on its feet yelling. The
first and last rounds packed most
of the excitement. Jersey Joe
decked the 25-year -old Cuban for
nine and a no-count in the first,
a one-count in the fifth and for
nine and eight in the last frame
when the bout was halted with
Agramonte draped over the lower
strand of the ropes.
Agramonte won the second
round when Walcott was extremely
cautious and the referee took the
sixth from Walcott for a rabbit
punch.
