Mrs. Blanche Domico, widow of the slain man, at her home, 437 Warner street. She 'is said to have told them about her husband’s life_since he came to this country from Italy when he was a young man. Mrs. Domico told the investigators she had been separated from her hus- band the last sixteen years and dur- ing that time mutual friends had kept her fairly well informed of her husband’s movements. In conversation with a Star Te- porter, Mrs. Domico sald she was unable to suggest the identity of her husband's slayer. Italian friends, she sald, did not think he had been slain by a fellow countryman be- cause of any trouble, his only dis- agreement with any of them. she sald, having been over a money transaction about fifteen years ago. Since the murder was committed. Mrs. Domico stated. she had learned from her husband’s most intimate friend that her husband had quite a large sum of money in his pos- ion, approximately $3.000, and fends of the slain man think the $3.000 mentioned was in the house in which Domico was Kkilled, and it is their belief that it was taken by his slayer or slayers. $10,000 LOSS CAUSED BY WOODWORK SHOP FIRE Flames Originating in Pile of Shavings Cause Three-Alarms and Call Out 12 Engines. ings near a large planer in woodwork shop of the Henderson Manufacturing Company at 1341 W street, early last night damaged machinery and finished woodwork to an extent, estimated by Acting Fire Marshall C. C. Achstetter, at $10,000. The blaze started shortly after 6 o'clock, just after work at the mill had been finished, and gained such speedy headway that three alarms, calling out twelve engine companies. were sounded in quick sucoession. The greatest damage, it is believed, was caused to the large planer, valued at about $2,500, according to fire department officials. The intense heat is believed to have cause warping of other machinery. The dry shavings furnished quick food for the flames. The fire burned for two hours before being finally extinguished. The property is owned by C. E. Finch of 3124 11th street and Martin Wiegand of 465 Maryland avenue. At 7:25 o'clock last night another fire started at the warehouse of the Standard Stores Company, at Con- necticut avenue and Van Ness street, near the entrance to the bureau of standards grounds. Estimates place the damage at approximately $500. R. C. ADAMS, INDIAN CHIEF, SUCCUMBS IN HOTEL HERE Richard C. Adams, hereditary chief of the Delaware Indians, died today at {the New Ebbitt Hotel, where he had been living since last March. Disposi- tion of the body is waiting the decision {of his wife, who was with him when he died. Shortly after the elections last fall Mr. Adams went to Cleveland, and while there had a coughing spell, dur- ing which he coughed up a bullet which had been lodged in his stomach for thirty-eight years. Instead of making the “chief” feel better, dislodgment of the old bullet is declared to have made his hei.th worse in every way. The bullet was received in frontier fighting while he was working in the interests of the government, endeavoring to quiet the Indians. Mr. Adams spent many years here as representative of ali_the Indian tribes in their business before Con- H gress. He was in Chicago during the political convention last year and was tremendously interested in the aign. e wag a close friend of former Senator Quay, whom he made honorary chief of the Delaware tribe of In- dians. WATSON SAYS PRESSURE AT FIRE WAS ADEQUATE Fire Chief George Watson reported to Commissioner Oyster this afternoon that none of his engine companies was handicapped by a shortage of water or low pressure at the National Hotel fire. The report was based on a careful inquiry of all the companies that were at the blaze. The fire chief’s report shows that there were twenty-one engine com- panies on the fireground, twenty of which were in service. It is also disclosed that out of 20,000 feet of hose line that was used in fighting the blaze only nine short sections of hose burst. Commissioner - Oyster stated today that he has received no complaints about the manner in which the fire was fought, other than the reports that the firemen had difficulty in getting proper water pressure behind the hose lines. The Commissioner announced today that he intends to take up with the board of Commissioners at the earliest opportunity the question of increasing mains in the downtown section or making whatever other improvements are necessary to provide the business district with higher water pressure.
