had lived with a granddaugh-
ter, Mrs. Dean j. Longfellow Of
$685. s street NV. She had
been Ill several years. The time
of memorial services for Mrs.
Daley have not yet been an
nounced.
President Mckinley was In
the White House when Mrs.
Daley became chief-and only
operator of the newly in
stalled Capitol telephone single
switchboard. Only a few years
previously telephones had be-
gun to 60 into general use at
the Capitol. They soon became
more plentiful but as late as
1908 Mrs. Daley was the only
operator.
During her almost half-cen-
fury at the Capitol, she fol-
lowed. or perhaps established,
a tradition that still prevails
among the rs operators who
handle a 50-position switch
board on an around-the-c o'clock
schedule today in the new
House Office Building. That is
a tradition of speaking softly,
remaining calm and efficient
under any provocation. and
preferring to be heard rather
than seen.
Arthur E. Gus" Cook, AS
sistant Architect of the Capitol,
who has been there since 1895,
recalled that he knew Mrs.
Daley very well. But he added
that he had never seen her,
Notwithstanding the thousands
of times he had talked with
her.
There have been only three
chief telephone operators at
the Capitol. Mrs. Daley was
succeeded in 1915 by Miss Nena
Thomas who, at retirement in
1855. was succeeded by Mrs.
Clare Mann, present chief of
the Capitol telephone exchange.
Several of her former asso-
ciates and longtime friends at
the Capitol spoke of her yes
terday as a delightful lady"
and a highly capable, patient
and tactful administrator of
the telephone system.
Mrs. Daley came to WASH
ington from Portsmouth, Va.
her birthplace. She was a
daughter of the late Judge
David j. Goodwin of that city.
She is survived by a daughter.
Mrs. Elsie j. Lewis, a grand
daughter, Mrs. Longfellow, and
three great-grandchildren.

think it happened late in the
season against the Red Sox at
Boston. I went six innings
against them and my arm pulled
a bit. I didn't pay much atten-

game of the season against the
Orioles in Washington. After
that, my arm swelled to about
twice its normal size.

bothered me, ! went to see a

ray showed a chip and he put
my arm in cast for three weeks
When the Washington club
found out about it, was called
there for an examination.
I've been told that the chip
may be in position where it
won't affect my pitching. but !
can feel it. 1t doesn't bother
me while I'm pitching. but I can
feel it later. They tell me I'll
learn in training down here
whether I'll need an operation.
No Real Test Yet
II haven't had a chance to
really test my arm yet" Ted
continued. I've got a slight
pulled muscle in my left leg and

No salary was announced, but

The bespectacled catcher told

The only other contract dis
