D., June 7—Mike | Azure, deaf and dumb since birth, is dead from a rattlesnake’s bite. Had he been a physically normal the 24-year-old youth might have been saved but he could not tell of his | plight and when his parents learned the cause of his intense suffering it ‘was too late. Mike, only 24 years old, died within 24 hours after the rep- | tile’s strike injected the deadly poison into his arm. Young Azure was working in a field when the snake bit him on the arm. In intense pain and stricken with dread, he rushed to the house for help. The two tiny holes were visible in his arm but Mike could not make himself understood and the imagina- tion of his parents did not extend to the possibility of a snakebite. The boy writhed in agony as his arm began to swell. The only plead- ing he could do was done with his eyes. He had never learned to read and write and had received no in- struction in talking with his fingers. Great tears rolled down his face, now chalky white as he envisioned the fate in store for him. The arm kept swelling. Mike writhed in agony as the pain Grew more intense. And finally a doctor was called. He immediately sensed the aifnt-| culty and ifike was removed to the Indian agency hospital here. But it ‘was too late. The deadly venom had established. itself in his blood. He died within 24 hours after the reptile struck, BISHOP HURLS NEW DEFY AT COMMITTEE Says Lack of Quorum Handi- caps Effort to Judge Him in Contempt | | Washington, June 7.—(7)—A new | challenge from its defiant witness, | Bishop James Cannon, Jr., today confronted the senate lobby commit- | tee. This was an assertion that he could not be adjudged in contempt of the | senate for refusing to answer the, committee’s questions and then, abruptly walking out in it, because of @ quorum of the committee was not present at the time of his appearance. For the same reason, Cannon said he doubted the legality of questions put to him on his activities in the southern Anti-Smith campaign of 1928, after he had declined to answer interrogations of this nature. | He thougrt these questions illegal | and unfair particularly after Senator | Walsh of Montana, the acting chair- | man, had.said that without a quorum the committee would rule on the dry leader's contention that it had no authority to investigate his political | activities, “If two members of the committee | could not pass upon my objections to} testifying concerning my political ac- tivities and could not issue a sub- poena,” Cannon said in a statement issued lgst night, “I do not see how two members could legally object to! my withdrawal, and certainly I do poe understand how I could be de- clared by two members of the com- mittee to be in contempt of the sen- ate by my withdrawal.” Cannon recalled-his correspondence with Caraway prior to his appear- ance, saying he would be glad to tell the committee of the activities of the board of temperance and social serv- ice of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, of which he is a Walsh Disagrees Senator Walsh, Montana, in a statement today said he disagreed with Bishop Cannon's contention that he coud not be prosecuted.

A stormy youth in which he was often at odds with his father, the late King Ferdinand, culminated in 1918, when he was not yet 25 years old, in a morganatic marriage at Odessa with a Mile. Zizi Lumbrino, daughter of a Rumanian 1, The marriage shocked his family, who took immediate steps to annul the marriage: The prince protested he would never leave her, but would renounce his royal rights. In the end he consented to annulment. A son was born and in after years | Mme. Lambrino's efforts to secure his name for the son caused him some trouble. He was married on March 10, 1921, to Princess Helen of Greece, and re- mained with her until after the birth of their son, Michael, or Mihai as he is known in Rumania, on Oct. 25 of that .same year. Life in the Bucharest Palace soon irked him, however, and in December, 1925, he left Rumania to take up life with a red-haired ‘woman, Mme. Magda Lupescu, in northern Italy and in Paris. On December 31, 1925, official pro- clamation was made he re- nounced the throne in favor of his son, Michael. His father, King Ferdinand 1, died in 1927, and although Carol was said to have wished to return to Rumania opposing political elements at home prevented and Michael was crowned king. Some months afterward Princess Helen obtained a divorce. - In June 1928, a plot to bring about his return to Rumania by means of an airplane was disclosed. He was expelled from England for his part in the affair. Recently there have been recurring reports that he would give up Mme. Lupescu and would go back to Buch- arest, but these the government al- ways denied.

It had been decided earlier that Carol should be proclaimed king to- night but it was found impossible te hold a sitting of paraliament which Probably will be convoked tomorrow morning. Should the government insist or. the standpoint that Carol become |Tegent only, it is possible Premier |Meniu will resign and that parlia- | ment will proclaim Carol as king of |its own powers. The populace was reported pressing for Carol's proclamation as king. The proclaiming of the former Crown Prince Carol as King of Ru- mania will remove from the list ot European kings its youngest mem- ber, little King Michael, who ascend- |ed the throne on July 20, 1927, when | he was not quite six years old. King Michael, or “Mickey” as he | was known by his young friends in | the days before he became a king, was not to have actually ruled Rumania until he became of age. A board of Regency, one member of which was his uncle, Prince Nicholas, acted in his stead and he only made his ap- pearance as king on formal occasions. | In the first conference betweer Carol and Premier Maniu, respecting Carol's return, Carol said he had | come back to Rumania because of the | bad economic situation of the coun- try. His previous renunciation, he said, had occasioned grave uncertain- ty concerning Rumania at home and abroad. He then told the premier that his work would be to restore Rumania’: prestige and welfare. i Negotiations Were Secret It has been an open secret . for months that Carol had negotiated with emissaries of the present gov- ernment, headed by M. Maniu and | based on his leadership of the Peas- ants’ party, to return to Rumania. Liberals, always opposed to him, be- gan an active campaign headed by |their chief, Bentile Bratianu, to | thwart the plans. Queen Marie a few days ago made |@ special trip to Germany to consult | with members of the Hohenzollern | family, to which her husband, Fer- ‘dinand, belonged, with the idea of | clearing up possible troubles which | might arise when her son returned to Bucharest. | M. Bratianu called upon Premier | Maniu Thursday and impressed upon jhim the necessity of keeping Caroi | away from the capital since, he said, the immediate result would be the fall of the government and formation of a new one of concentration. Carol's deep enmity toward M. Bratianu was a matter of common knowledge, the prince holding ventile and his late brother Jan responsible for his expulsion from the country. The attitude which Carol will adopt, if he succeeds to the Regency council now, or ascends to the throne, is a matter of considerable interest, since he has many scores to settle. Advices from Paris were to the ef- fect that Carol had abandoned Mme. | Lupescu, for whom he renounced hia | right to succeed to the throne and that she had left eight days ago for Switzerland. A few days ago Carol wired Gener- al Verescu, always @ friend, and lead- er of the people's party, that he had repudiated Mme. Lupescu, with whom he has not been living regularly or continually for the past few months. This message made the liberals frantic since they correctly interpret ed it as indicating his return was but a matter of a few days. They were said even to have offered the throne to Prince Charles, second son of King Albert of Belgium. Carol became ac- quainted with these developments "| while still in Paris and determined to tisk everything before it was too late. Gone Five Years Carol, whose amours have disturb- ed this country’s politics for 10 years, returned to Bucharest after five years’ absence. He left behind him in Paris his red-haired companion of several years, Mme. Magda Lupescu, for love of whom in 1925 he signed away his rights to the throne and established | the succession which led, two years | later, to the crowning of his infant | Son, Michael, in his stead. | QUEEN MARIE PLEASED | AT WELCOME SEN SON | Vienna, June _ 7.—()—Dowaget | Queen Marie of Rumania received ‘first news of the arrival of her son, former Crown Prince Carol, in Buch- arest from the Rumanian minister who met her at the Vienna railway station where she stopped en route tc Oberammergau.
