BIRL S KIDNAPED AT POINT OF PISTOL Tells Thriling Experience . After Tying Abductor in : Bed and Escaping. Bpecial Dispatch to The Sta ALEXANDRIA, Va. June Grabbed by an unidentified man and thrust into an automobile at the point of a revolver, whisked through the District of Columbia, Maryland, Delaware and Pennsylvania in a semi- conscious ‘condition, and a daring es- cape by binding her abductor with a sheet in a Philadelphia rooming Louse, while he slept, were the ex- 1 menees in brief, undergone by Miss Henrietta Spoonhoward, sixteen years ©id, who returned to Her home here last night after an absence of five days. Given Nareotic. Buffering from shock, nervousness and exposure, the girl with difficulty Telated to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Spoonhoward of 303 King Btreet. just what had happened since last Wednesday afternoon. She was walking near King and Pitt streets, she said, when a man from behind seized her and, displaying a pistol, ordered her info a waiting automo- bile. He sped through Washington, and at intervals injected a hypodermic needle into her arm. with the result that the girl fell in a stupor. She re- covered partially when they stopped at Baltimore, and obeved the com- mand of her captor to change her clothing and don a new hat he had bought for her. To the girl's knowledge, the man #lept only once during the entire trip. He stopped at remote places near cities for food, but gave her very little to eat, €he declared. - At Philadelphia yester- day he forced her into a rooming house and shortly after fell asleep on the bed. Although suffering from the drowsy e fects of the narcotics the man had in- Jected into her arm, Henrietta became aware of her first opportunity for es- cape. and, with a sheet, she tied the kid- naper to the bed. took a $5 bill from his pocket and fled from the house. She caught a train for Washington and reached her home last night. Abductor Disguised Self. The abductor, the girl sald, appeared 0 be a foreigner. Throughout the trip he changed into different clothing sev- eral times and now and then used a false mustache. He also made the girl arrange her hair in different designs at requent intervals and also paint her e. Henrietta saw the man several weeks BLAIR SCOUTS PLAN TO RESIGN AFTER HE CALLS ON PRESIDENT . Commissioner of Internal Reve- nue Blair, has no intention of re- signing his post in the face of the alleged Biafr-Dover _controversy, but is “busy on the job" the commissioner said today at the Treasury, following a conference with President Harding at the White House. - Denying rumors circulating In unofficial circles today that he would resign on July 1, the com- missioner said with emphasis that he had no such notion. He ex- plained that hls conference with the President was for purely business reasons, and that the “famous” controversy was not so much as mentioned. Neither was there any discussion, the commissioner said, of the question of the sale of liquor aboard Shipping Board vessels, a problem which had been referred by the Treasury to the Attorney General for an official ruling. pE——— ago at a fruit stand, where she was em- ployed, she told her mother. It is believed by the girl's mother that her daughter was mistaken by the kid- naper for some one else, as he tried to get Henrletta to sign several papers and also tell him where certain people he mentioned by name kept their money. The girl refused to sign any papers or give information of any char- acter. Miss Spoonhoward appeared at the office of Chief of Fulice C. T. Good this morning and told her experience with the kidnaper. The police immediately instituted an investigation of the case. e BEATTY IN NEAR-CRASH.

Eleven United States senators, aided and abetted by Spealker Gillett, trampled on and mangled a dozen members of the Senate presa gallery on the Chevy ase golf course today. Six foursomes were played and the senators, not to mention the Speaker, won every match.

When all the details were in it was found that the senators were a total of sixty-ning points ahead of their opponents. Speaker Gillett, whose services were called for at the eleventh hour, after it was learned that Senator Freling- suysen of New Jersey would be un- lable to play, turned in the best card lof the day. He went out in 44 and jcame in in 42, a total of 86 for the cighteen holes. The foursomes and the number of points by which the senators won were as follo L Score Cards. Speaker Gillett and Senator Kellogg of Minnesota vs. Brigham and Judd, 14 points. Senators Hale and Newberry vs. Choate and Groves, 10 points.

Former Praised by Gen. Le- jeune, Who Sees Fatal Accident. Bodles of the two members of the Marfne Corps aviation detachment operating with the expeditionary force at Gettysburg, Capt. George W. Hamilton, son of C. A. Hamilton of this city and one of the most daring officers of the corps, and Sergt. G. R. Martin of Buffalo, N. Y., who were killed yesterday when a plane iIn which the two were maneuvering crashed to the ground at Gettysburg, were brought to Washington today. A funeral detachment, accompanied by a guard of honor commanded by Lieut. William J. Wallace, left the camp early today and the bodies are now in the: Navy building. The guard of honor consisted of four orderlies mounted on motor cycles, who roda alongside the funeral truck. The bodies will remain at the Navy bullding pending receipt of word from relatives. Capt. Hamilton's father, who is Washington corre- spondent for the Buffalo Times, and who was out of the city, is expected here today, and it was said to be probable that Capt. Hamilton would be given a military interment at Arlington. Distinguished Record. Capt. Hamilton, who was one of the most popular and most daring officers of the Marine Corps, made a distinguished record for himself during the world conflict, and also during his school days here. He was born here in 1892, attended the local public schools and graduated from the Central High School, where he was captain of the foot ball and track teams. He was one of the fastest trackmen in the corps and beat almost every one in the Ameri- can expeditionary forces. He graduated from Central in 1912. He was captain of the track teams of 1909, 1910, 1911 and 1912 and cap- tain of the foot ball team in 1909, 1910 and 1911, the only one in the history of the school, according to the institution’s records, to hold the captaincy for three successive years. He also was captain of the rifle team in 1909 and a member of the staff of the school paper. He entered the Marine Corps from civil life in 1912, and spent most of his time preceding the world conflict aboard crulsing ships of the Navy, with the marine detachments, with the exception of a year and a half at the marine barracks at Norfolk, Va. Capt. Hamilton was with the first marine outfit to go overseas, and he participated in every major engage- ment, right up to the night before the armistice, when he further distin- guished himself as commander of the first marine detachment in the celebrated crossing of the Meuse river, establishing a bridgehead, over which the reinforcements passed and drove back the enemy. He constant- 1y exposed himself recklessly in lead- ing his men against the enemy, and won for himself many distinguished honors and citations. He held the dis- tinguished service cross of the Army for his daring in Belleau Wood, the avy cross, the Legion of Honor of ‘rance for operations at Soisson. and the croix de guerre with palm two for operations in the Argonn and one for bravery, leadership and daring at Champaigne. He came through the war without a scratch, although almost constantly under the raking fire of the enem ASKS SHIP RUM RULING. Mellon Puts U. S. Liners’ Case Up to Daugherty. The question of the legality of the sale of liquor on Shipping Board ves sels outside the three-mile limit will be determined in an_early ruling by Attorney General Daugherty. Re- quest for such a ruling has been made by Secretary Mellon, it was stated at the Treasury Department today, at the urging of Prohibition Commissioner Haynes, counsel for the enforcement unit having held that the Treasury regulations, as now drawn, do not prohibit such sales. A brief reviewing the new regu- lations, excepting Shipping Board vessels, along with foreign craft, from the operation of the recent Su- preme Court decision banning in- transit liquor shipments, and also the previous opinions of the Depart- ment of Justice, which have held that the prohibition laws follow the flag at sea, was prepared by Solicitor Mapes of the internal revenue to ac- company the request for a final ruling, it was sald. _— ABOLISH LIBRARY OFFICE.

Nine Men Still Face Murder Charge in Election Tragedy. CATLETTSBURG, Ky., June 27.—A motion to dismiss the conspiracy charge against the nine defendants in the second of the Clay Hole mur- der and conspiracy trials was sustain- ed yesterday by Judge W. C. Halbert. This action leaves only a murder charge against the nine men in con- nection with the Clay Hole election tragedy last November, in which three persons were kille: { CAPT. GEORGE WALLIS HAMILTON Upon returning to the states, he went to the Aviation Corps, and up until last spring was attached to the lair training school at Pensacola, ! Fla., at which time he came to Qua! Itico. Maj. Gen. Lejeune, who was in ' camp at the time of the accident, paid la high tribute to the dead aviator iand expressed deep sorrow and re- great at his death. He characterized him as one of the best battalion commanders in the corps and one of the most distinguished in the Ameri- can expeditionary force, and added that he gave his life to his country in line of duty. i ‘The board of officers of the corps appointed to hold an inquest, and composed of Capt. Lewis J. Bourne, iCapt. James T. Moore and Lieut. H. C. Major, rendered a verdict that the deceased came to his death In line of duty. Among the wreaths which were ri ceived yester: v soon after the acci- dent as one from the 2d Division Association, one from the high rank- ing officers of the Marine Corps, one from the entire corps, one from the Army fiyers and one from the marine fiyers. Many See Accldent. The accident occurred just before *noon, while Capt. Hamilton was lead- ing a squadron of fiyers over the camp, and was witnessed by thousands of people. Members of the corps who were watching the aviators saw the plane in which Capt. Hamiiton was riding give a signal to the rest of the squadron that he was going to land, and almost immediately it went into a tail spin The accident is belie to have been due to the fact that Capt. Hamilton miscalculated his distaace from the ground. The altimeter reg- isters heights above- sea level, but Gettysburg is 600 feet above sea level, so that when the altimeter registered a thousand feet, the plane, as a mat- ter of fact, was but 400 feet from the ground. Just before the crash came, obscrvers said, the capluin had su ceeded In steadving the tail of the machine, but could not get the nose up. Had he been Ligaer up, the plane could have been righted for a safe landing. it was sald. The plane just cleared a circus tent In coming down. The machine was completely demol- ished, the encine beinz driven back through the cockpit, where the aviators were riding, mangling them beyond | recognitipn. Capt. Hamilton was killed immediately. Sergt. Martin was breathing when he was taken out and hurried to the hospital, but it was realized that he was so badly crushed t he could not live. EXERCISES ON JULY 4.

MLLERDESINTD INSURAGE DUTES But Griffith Still Has Desk Key Pending Outcome of Action in Court. Burt A. Miller, the new District commissioner of Insurance, waded into figures and ‘calculations in his new office today. He found out that approximately $200,000 had been received In the DI trict exchequer through fees, charters and taxes on insurance companies operating in the District. He further discovered that the ap- propriation under which this amount was collected and assessed, and turn- od into the District coffers was about $14,025. Office Needs More Funds. And in his calculations- for the forthcoming year, when the new ma- rine insurance act, giving the District power to grant charters to muitiple lines insurance companies—excluding life and surety bond corporations—he found that approximately $19,000 would be the possible limit of appro- priations for his office during the coming year. The point he makes, upon examina- tion of these figures, and upon reali- zation that there are exactly seven employes in the office of the commis- sioner of insurance for the District is that adequate service cannot be rendered to the taxpaying companies and individual brokers when the ap- propriation is just about 7 per cent of the amount which the office causes to be turned into the District govern- ment funds. His plans are not ynot shaped up for final presentation. He made it under- st00d that thus far his calculations were entirely tentative and his fig- ures were by no means final. Grifith Keeps Desk Keys. His desk remains unopened. The District officials have duplicate keys, but they have not yet been used. Former Commissioner W. Gwynn Gardiner, who yesterday announced that he would seek a writ of manda- mus to compel the Commissioners to replace Dr. Lewis A. Griffith, the predecessor of Mr. Miller, who was removed from his office by the Com- missioners last week, at the desk of commissioners of insurance, today stated that his action would start to- morrow morning in the courts. Mr. Gardiner said that further than to announce his date for the opening of proceedings nothing_would be said at the present time. Dr. Griffith re- tains his desk keys, although asked by the Commissioners to surrender them yesterday. _— URUGUAY SEIZES GOLD ON SHIP BOUND FOR U. S.
