"VIRGIN DARE’ STORY So-célled Parchment Found to Be of Manufacture Sub- Sequent to 18_67. “LEAD” CASKET OF W0OD Scientists Quoted by Kaufman Un- known—Other Discrepancies Found in Statement. With & weak “plop” and a sickening hiss of escaping hot air, the strange story of mysterious leaden caskets and engraved plates, insinuating some con- nection with the grave of the long-lost Virginia Dare, was punctured once and for all today in an effclent-looking laboratory by an intelligent-looking young lady, at the bureau of standards. An analysis of a plece of the alleged parchment supposed to have been dis- covered inclosed in the leaden casket dug up by Russell Kaufman last week and which Kaufman gaid a “scientist” told him bore the date 1816, proved it to be nothing more nor less than a bit of very modern pulp-wood paper, man- ufactured by a process that was not discovered untll after 1867, half a con- tury afier the document was supposed to have been buried and three cen- turies after the baby Virginta disap- peared. The document was to have been brought bask from New York last night by a scientist, whose nante was glven as Dr. C. W. Wiley of the N&w York University. Two reporters from The Star, accompanied by u headquarters detective, went to Kauf- man's home, at 1520 P street northwest, to examine it, meot the Dr. Wiley, and . Incidentally {0 quizz the voung' dis- soverer, Suspiclons Are Arouséd. Their suspictons had already been sirongly aroused by what appeared to be several discrepancies in Kaufman's statements. After agreehg to accom- uny a reporter for The Star to New ork to see Dr. Wiley and the myste- rious casket the previous evening, he telephoned that he had received a tele- grom from the archeologist assert- ing he would be in Washington the following day, which was yesterday. Inquiry brought from both the ‘Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies statemenis that no mes- suge had been received in Washing- ton for Kaufman. Further Investigation yesterday failed to show the name of “Dr. Wiley" in any scientific catalogues or journals, where all such persons of any standing, ording to other sclentists, are invariably listed. In addition, ‘New York University, ans- wering ‘a Star telegram, declared there was no C. W. Wiley on the uni- versity staff. The university was found to be in the opposite end of the metropolis described by Kaufman. And in conclusion the Grand Hotel wired from New York that no person by the name of Kaufman had regis- tered there late last week, Kaufman having previously stated he stopped there wien he took his discoveries to the nort! metropolfs. Snys Hox Was Wood. Carefully questioned by the detee- tive and reporters, Kaufman refused to show the telegram in question, de- clined to produce Dr. Wiley the leaden caske:, and finally brought or into the room the lady with whom he ! boards to substantiate the story o finding the box. S 22" inat she saw the box Kauf: dug up, lead, as Kaufman had clatmed. She sald, too, that it was very light in weight, although more than a foot long and nearly as wide, In addition to “Dr. Kaufman for the first time discl the identity of three alleged W. ingtonians,” who, he eaid, had urged him to take his discoveries.to New York and had paid his expenses there and back. “None of the three names e gave in the city directory or the telephone book, nor could the name of “Dr. C. W. Wiley” be found an said he had in the New York telephone directory. | silt-edge Pardament. The parchment” Kaufma: oduce, with a gllt edge sti aining on one piece.

' “There are loud cries of ‘He will only squander it if this bonus is paid.” Since when does it become the debtor to repudiate his obligations because the creditor might spend it?" i Former Judge Landls ®isplayed a poster which he said he had torn from a raflroad bulletin board urging rail- way employes to write members of Congress, asking them to favor the Mellon tax plan. “Can you Imagine brakemen, switchmen and woman,car cleaners couching letters to senators and rep- resentatives in such -gdroit business terms as this bulletin’ suggests?” he asked. 1KILLED, I5HURT, | AS TROLLEY HITS TRAIN! i By lMAmMIaMPm.

The American Bar Association and particularly its treasurer, Frederick E. Wadhams, were criticized in the Senate today by Senator Jones of Washingion, because of the assocla- tion's leasing on, English vessel in- stead of a vessel of the United States lines for its trip to London next July Senator Jones declared that he had reached the conclusion that Mr. Wad- hams had misrepresented the offer of the United States lines to the Bar Assoclation’s committee, in a way which led that committee to approve the arrangements nade with the Cunard line for the Berengarla. “The ‘lack of Interest, to express it mildly, in an Ameriean ‘merchant ma- rine, as shown by Mr. Wadhams, is too prevalent in this country and is one of the greatest handicaps to building up our shipping,” sald Sena- tor Jones. “Until our people prefer American ships to alien ships for transporting themselves and their property, - we cannot hope to have a merchant ma- rine. When we get the right spirit; when we are ready to pay as much or more for using our ships; when we are ready to use equal or fewer ac- commodations by employing our ships; when business men and com- munities are ready to support and agree to use our ships; when our merchants Insist that the goods they import shall be carried in our ships— then will the problem of an American merchant marine be largely solved.

The United States cruiser Tacoma, aground on Blanquillas reef, off Vera Cruz, has three compartments flooded, according to wireless reports from the ship received today by the Navy Derartment. Tugs were standing by, it was said, and hopes were entertained that the craft could be drawn into deeper wa- ters soon. No fears were felt for the safety of the crew. The Tacoma was thrown on the reef during a storm. . The cruiser Richmond probably will be stationed at Vera Crua to take the place of the Tacoma, which had been ordered there to act as an emergency communications station to the United States, due to the interruption of cable facilities incident to the de la Huerta insurrection. An_examnation will be made of the Tacoma as soon as she is freed, and it wfll be determined then whether she will return to the United States under her own steam or whether it will be necassary for tugs to tow her in for repal She probably will be brought to Nosfolk. i Dispatches outlining the situation on the crulser however, led some high officers of the:Navy to believe that she might have. to be abandoned.
