The inquiry is preparatory to ordering the usual board of investigation, which probably will not be designated until Secretary Denby returns from Guan- tanamo, April fifth.

BLAZE FOUGHT ON GTST FLOOR OF SKYSCRAPER New York Department Called On to Battle Flames in Top of Equitable Building (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, March 31.—¥iremen fought among the -clouds for *more than an hour early today before sub- duing a dangerous blaze on the thirty- first floor of the towering Equitable building in the heart of the down- town district. It was one of the high- est fires the firemen ever have been called upon to fight. The blaze started in a broker's of- fice and clouds of smoke poured thru the upper stories and elevator shafts. The fire was under control before the building's fifteen thousand business in- habitants arrived. Firemen crawled along narrow win- dow ledges at dizzy heights above nar- row streets in order to smash windows and push thru lines of hose. Thou- sands of gallons of water pouted down elevator shafts and into the corri- dors. ‘ The blaze today recalled the destruc- tion of the old Equitable building on the same site, January 9, 1912, ‘in one of the most spectacular fires in the history of New York. Six persons lost their lives, nineteen were injured and the property loss was $13,000,000.

Blind Ox Dies On Losing His Gander ‘Nurse’ GREENSBORO, Ala., March 31.— ‘The blind ox, famous as the protege of a stately gander on the J. A. Holcroft plantation, near here, is dead, and those on the farm believe his death is due directly to enforced separation from his guardian. Recently it became necessary to transfer the ox to another pasture. The gander was unable to follow, The separation was too much for the ox, and_he pined and 3rooped, refused food and drink, and finally lay down and died. ‘The ox and gander lately attract- ed widespread attention by their strange companionship. Each day at regulzr intervals the gander would lead the ox to water by strut- ting ahead of him, honking loudly so that his afflicted ward could follow the sound. If other cattle ap- proached, the fowl would fly furi- ously at them and drive the intrud- ers out of range.

(By Associated Press) VIENNA, March 31.—The Wiener Journal announces that thirty thou- sand Jugo Slav troops have been massed in Vaarasdin, in Croatia, with the intention of marching on Steina- manger and preventing a restoration of the Hapsburgs by all means.

Several army leaders, who ‘had ap- peared inclined to place themselves in the-service of the former emperor were placed under arrest by Admiral Horthy, the, regent, Semi-official ad- vices from Budapest Wednesday de- clared. It was at first reported that General Lehar, who commands the Hungarian army forces at Steina- manger, was supporting the former monarch and would back his claim with the troops of the west Hungar- ian army ‘but later advices asserted he was supporting Regent Horthy. General Belitska, the Hungarian war minister, was quoted Wednesday as saying: “The former king is not support- ed by the troops. The army, as one, man, is standing behind Regent Hor- thy. Charles is aprisoner, rathcr than a guest at Steinamanger.”’ REPUBLICANS CLAIM CHARLES DEFEATED, VIENNA, March 31.—(By The As- sociated Press}—Republicans in this. city exultantly declare that the visit of Former Emperor Charles to Buda- pest and the flasco attending his at- tempt to regain power has « dashed whatever chance which may have been expected for the restoration of the monarchy, either in Hungary or Austria. Monarchists reliictantly ad- mit that a restoration seems impos- sible. This is not only due to the disap- pointment which naturally follows failure, but as the details leak out there is a touch of the absurd attach- ing to the whole adventure which has reacted sharply against the former emperor. It also has depressed the legitimists, who, while not desiring Charles to return, hoped for the fu- ture restoration of the Hapsburgs.in the person of his son. The dramatic declaration of Charles to his friends here Friday, that he would never leave Hungary alive, was Tepeated in Budapest when Admiral Horthy, the regent of Hungary, remonstrated against his presence in that country, yet Premier Teleky found him a few hours later fleeing toward the border and taking refuge in the palace of Bishop Mikes in Stcinamanger,-jater praying that he be given shelter, It appears that it was after Ad- miral Horthy had taken his deter- mined stand in the Budapest palace interview against Charles’ demand for restoration, Charles then began pleading with some of those about him for support. He pointed to General Lehar and ex- claimed that there were three divis- ions of troops in west Hungary sworn to support him and ready to march upon Budapest. General Lehar then turned to Generals Pronay and Hayjas, and asked: “What about your men?” Before either could reply, Admiral SEE BEN” *: Branch 112 West Midwest Ave, Telephone 74W Harold Kramer, Realtor Manager = R | R-15—240 acre relin- land; few miles from_ Casper under prospec- jtive irrigation ditch. ‘Will secure 400 acres additional which you are entitled to within 20 miles.

Realizing he was alone, General Lehar left the room and telephoned to his troops at Raab not to move. Then Charles demanded that the nation be given a chance to its will. Admiral Horthy, it is said, agreed to this, but. refused the next request that Charles made, that he be permitted to reside in his old pat- ace at Godollo, 75 niiles outside Buda- pest.

GEEVA, March 31.—(By The Asso- ciated Press}—“All is well,” read a telegram recetved last night by For- mer Empress Zita of Austria-Hungary from ex-Emperor Charles. a The message was dispatched from Steinamanger, on the frontier be- tween Austria ‘and Hungary where the presence of the former ruler was last reported. GERMANY SEEN IN HUNGARIAN REVOLT. (By United Press) NEW YORK, March 31.—German monarchists are behind the plot to restore former Emperor Charles the throne, according to J. W. T. me son, expert on European affairs. He said it was a forerunner in an at- tempt to restore the Hehenzollerns in Germany. The latter have been in touch with Hungarian monarchists for some time. ‘There has been a revival of mon- archist feoling in Europe since Con- stantinople was recalled to the Greek throne. Because the Hohbenzollerns were afraid of the allies’ action, they be- gan to plot through indirect means several months. ago. CARDINAL IS LAID AT REST (Continued from Page 1.) should sing at today’s mass a solemn Gregorian chant previously heard only at the funeral of a sovereign rul- rer of the Catholic church in the Sis- tine chapel in Rome. By 9 o'clock, an hour before the time for ‘the ceremony, streets surround- ing the cathedral were so crowded with clergy and laity that not a square inch of pavement could be seen. At 10 o'clock the whole city, by. gubernatorial and mayoral procla- mation was urged to drop every ac- tivity for a minute in respect to a man it had numbered among its most distinguished citizens. Every motor, street car, and wagon was directsd to stop in its tracks when the clocks of the city tolled ten. Early in the morning the clersy began forming in front of Calvert Hall college, diagonally opposite the cathedral, for the processional It was an impressive spectacle. Regular clergy in the colors of their respective orders headed the line and besides them the secular clergy fol- lowed by the Monsignori, Cardinals O'Connell and Begin, and Archbishop John Bonzano, apostolic delegate and celebrant of the mass. All the higher church dignitaries wore mourning color of purple. Inside the cathedral, under the gilded dome at the foot of the center aisle lay the body of James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Bal- timore. He rested on a purple cov- ered catafalque, dressed in his arch- bishop's robes, wearing on his, head his archbishop’s mitre and on hiss finger the ring that so many thous- ands had kisned during his life. The rays of tall white candles lighted his benign features. At the foot of the bier was the cardinal’s hat of red. It was obvious that only a small part of the thousands who sought entry to the cathedral would be able to pass under the great portico, with its tall columns draped in purple and black. Most of the space was allott- ed to the clergy and admittance was by ticket only. But this did not shake the great army of mourners in theit hope of at- tending the mnss, or at least, massed around the great stone pile, of catc- ing the strains of church music that might reach them. Disappointment staring them in the face, they stood itheir ground with the same deter- ination that had been disphiyed by the tens of thousands who yesterday pressed their way into the edifice to lew the body of their devoted leader. Today really held two ceremonies. jOne was the great church assemblage at mass—the church bestowing her honors on’one who long had served her faithfully. The other was the simple burial service in the crypt of marble under the cathedral sanctuary —the relatives and close friends tak- ing leave of one dear to them. soldier of the church to be buried in |this vault and to him was allotted a place on the north side. The last time the crypt was opened was in 1872, when Archbishop Spalding was buried there.
