'MEMORY OF TOTI, GREATEST ITALIAN WARRIOR, HONORED By the Associated Press, ROME; May 24.—An impressive welcome was given to the arrival in Rome of the y of Enrico ‘Toti, one of Italy's greatest world war herves. Although with only one leg at the outbreak of the war, Toti per- aisted in his efforts to get into the conflict, and finally succeeded. He fell at Monfalcone, near Trieste. Toti has already become almost a legendary hero to the Itallans, representing to them the patriot- ism "and fighting spirit of the nation, but still more of the “Tras- tcvere,” or Beyond-the-Tiber dis- trict, where the descendants of the ancient Roman are chiefly found. Although thrice wounded in an al- . most hopeless advance, he is re- puted to have flung his crutch in the face of the advancing enemy, falling dead at the head of his comrades. \ His body was brought from Mon- falcone with honors equal to that given to royalty. Arriving in Rome, the coffin was conveyed from the station to the barracks of the Bersagllere, corps to which Totl belonged. will Jie in state before being in- terred in the cemetery, where a monument has been erected.

President and Cabinet Consider Re- organization Matters. The plan for reorganizing the gov- ernment departments and _bureaus which was submitted to the President more than four months ago, by W. F. Brown, chairman of the joint cop- gresilonai committes on reorganiza- tion, is still' under consideration by the executive and membe of his cabinet, although- it was at the White House today that former hopes to resubmit it to the joint com- mittee within a short time for prep- aration before presenting to Congress for the necessary legislation. The President is-known to be ex. tremely anxious to dispose of this matter and just as soon as he can get a unanimity of opinion among his cablnet officers regarding certain im- portant changes proposed by the plan, he will then be in a position to return it to the joint committee. Because of certain difficulties, there ‘will be still a further delay, although [ it is expected that the plan will be in the hands of the joint committee within the next few weeks. i l YOUR GROCER HAS "IT BECAUSE IT'S the ramous--HERRMANN’S THGER BRAND GINGER ALE AL FOR AR ACCUSED OFDETH Navy Yard( Record Shows Him on Duty at Time . of Murder.
