McPherson, jr., for the murder of his young wife, called at police headquar- ters today to look over some clothes which the clothing squad had recovered and which he thought might be ‘hose | 31 stolen from his home on Ridge road a few days ago. He said, however, that none of the ‘articles recovered belonged to him. Mr. Chance was ushered into the homicide Toom by Lieut. Joseph Morgan, who be- came new chief of the squad after the grand jury of which Chance was fore- ‘man assailed its former leader, Lieut. Edward Kelly, and remained in the room where nearly the entire homicide squad was gathered and conversed with members of the clothing squad, which 2lso has space in the same office. He remained in the room for nearly half an hour and when he emerged his face was wreathed in smiles. Ques- ticned as to whether the McPherson case was discussed, Mr. Chance replied: “I did not mention the name McPher- son. I would not talk about the case.” RUM SYNDICATE MADE $2,000,000 IN SIX MONTHS, BOOK SHOWS ___(Continued From First Page.) and Al Lillien and James Murphy.

NG STAR, WASH SUPPORTING PARTY STARTS TREK Dog Schges SOUTH FROM BYRD CAMP Set Forth on Rolling Plain of Snow to Chart Way and Leave FOOd for BY RUSSELL OWEN. By Radio to The Star and New York Times. LITTLE AMERICA, Antarctica, Oc- tober 16.—A line of dog sledges moved across the first slope of the barrier south of the Bay of Whales yesterday afterncon as the supporting~ sledging party started its long trip southward. Drivers trotted alongside their teams or moved easily and swiftly on skiis, holding to their gee poles and calling to their dogs. Their shouts grew faint- er, lost in' the immensity of the space about to swallow them, the uncharted and desolate wilderness against which they are pitting their strength and Tage. The rolling plain of snow, the en- trance to the vast wilderness to the south, was clothed in soft rose tints and purple shadows. The flaming sun above the western horizon overflowed in a blinding radiance. On either side were its brilliant companions, the golden flares of parhelia. *In the east the ghostlike moon hung in the pure curtain of the sky. The sledges became mere dark lines, crawl- ing and infinitesimal objects, moving ;fdwlrd a gleaming and iridescent hill- e. Byrd Watches Them Off. Left behind were two sledges and a few men. One of them was Comdr. Byrd, who had come several miles to see his men begin their long journey. He watched them as the sledges skipped behind the ridges while the sounds of creaking runners and muffled calls came out of the emptiness of the barrier. As they climbed slowly into sight ::sm he finally turned away with a le. “They are great men,” he said. “They will do it if any one can.” For days the men had been im- patiently waiting for an opportunity to | P leave. The cold maintained its grip and it would have been useless to start out in weather so severe. The snow surface was like rough sand, over which sledges could be hauled only with the greatest difficulty.

Her known dangers were in the water, not on the ice. On the other side of the pressure ridge the ice was at least three feet higher than where the waiting dog teams lay in their harness, steam rising from their heated bodies. Old ice it must be, older than the other ice of the bay, for as one looked through the pressure ridge, it was Iike gazing at an immense plain which had been lifted upward. ‘The hole was finally chopped through and the sledges hauled up with some difficulty. On the other side a great shaft of ice was thrust up 15 feet high, and the top of it was like the head of a sphinx, as if placed there to guard this strange land. Off to the left was Cape Mans Head, béyond which lay the site of Amund- n’s base camp. Personnel of Party. Following is| the personnel of the sup- porting sledge’ party: 8 Arthur Walden, leader of ‘he party and a dog driver all his life, was bern in Indianapclis May 10, 1871. His fa- ther was the Rev. Treadwell Walden, who for a time was rector of old St. Paul's Church in Boston just before Phillips Brooks was there. Although his family moved to Boston, Walden was sent to the Shattuck Military School, at Fairbault, Minn., and after leaving there he went to farming in New Hampshire. “I got restless,” he said, “and tossed a coin to see whether I should go to South Africa or Alaska. It came cown Alaska and that is how I happened to come down here.” Walden got to Alaska in 1896, two years before the famous gold rush start- ed, and for seven years he-drove dogs, freighting loads into the mines and over the dangerous trzils along the Yu- on and over the mountains. Then he returned to the East and married Kath- erine Sleeper, granddaughter of a Capt. ileeper. who was mayor of Roxbury, ass. Walden went to farming again «n settled at Wonalancet, N. }‘!,, sv‘hue hg has lived ever since, driving and breed- ing sledge dogs for a hobby. Walden introduced dog racing in the East and, with his famous ieader, Chi- nook, who died down Lere, won several important races. He is the author of ‘A Dog Puncher on the Yukon.” De Ganahl Born in Mexico. Joe de Ganahl is navigator of the supporting party. He was with Comdr. yrd on his North Pole expedition.

Here were smooth patches of ice on which running rang hard, and between them rough gravelly stretches of snow drift.

It is as if & sea, tossed by the wind, had suddenly frozen and kept its uneasy form. Ower the waves the sledges slipped, up and down, up and down, with an odd swinging motion.

Dr. Benjamin W. Summy, 82 years old, retired physician of this city, where he practiced mere than 50 years, and long prominently identified with the Masonic fraternity and other organiza- tions here, died in Walter Reed Hos- a:lll today. His death was attributed a condition “brought on by injuries sustained when hit by an automobile near his home, 2101 F street, last March. Dr. Summy retired from the active practice of medicine about 10 years ago. During his many years of resi- dence here he had become widely known and much beloved among Washington citizens, particularly thos: who have been identified with the National Capi- tal and interested in its development for many years. At the time of his death Dr. Summy was treasurer of the Retired Federal Employes’ Association and was a mem- ber and former treasurer of the Associa- 'tion of Oldest Inhabitants of the District of Columbia. Held Civic Interest. Always taking an active interest in the civic betterment of Washington, he was one of the organizers of the West End Citizens’ Association and had been a regular attendant at all its meetings. Long affiliated with the Masonic fra- ternity, Dr. Summy was widely known as the oldest living past master of Stansbury Lodge, F. A. A. M., having served as master of the lodge in 1871. He also was a past president of the Masonic Veterans’ Association, a mem- ber of Columbia Chapter, No. 1, Royal Arch Masons; De Molay Commandery, Knights Templars, and the Ruth Chap- ter, Order of the Eastern Star. Also active in church circles, Dr. Summy was for many years & trustee and a member of the executive board of the Vermont Avenue Christian Church, and some years ago was elected elder emeritus, said to be the first member distinguished by that title. Educated at Columbian College. A native of Buftalo, N. Y., Dr. Summy | Jubbard came to this city many years ago and was educated at the old Columbian College, now George Washington Uni- versity, and later was graduated from the Georgetown University Medical School. Years ago, Dr. Summy owned the old 8t. Cloud Hotel at Ninth and F streets and later traded the property for other bu: real estate holdings here. i inerested. in fibe branches of the itary service, Dr. Summy some years ago became active in the Home De- by | fense League here and many years ago, %n 1327 d 1921 S and an {%l;xled "!'ie exg::ltlnn tin the summer' mq‘; . e -year- e s, a two. -old son, Braathen a Ski Expert. 1872 to 1878 was captain of the Presi- dent’s Mounted Guard.

Bemis of Library of Congress ~Recovers Papers Written by Virginia Clergyman in 1680. This is the second of & series &} articles on hitherto unpublished papers relating to the history of Colonial America, obtained by Dr. Samuel F. Bemis, chief of the European Mission of the Library of Congress, who has just returned from two years’ research work abroad. BY THOMAS R. HENRY. The unpublished manuscript of what was probably the first natural history fr Tu; written in America has heen recovered by the European Mission of the Library of Congress from a chestful of papers in the cellar of the Soclety for Propa- | Edith gation of the Gospel. It was written in 1680 by & clergyman with sclentific leanings, stationed in Virginia, whose name was not signed to the manuscript and purports to be a complete list of the plants, insects and rocks of the colony. ‘The list is interspersed with' the plous clergyman’s efforts to make every- thing he reported square with the gospel, for it appears that even then there were in Virginia scoffers who put a differnt interpretation on the phenomena of nature. Tells of Dirt Wasps. He tells of the “dirt wasps who build & cell, put in six or eight live spiders and leave them to brood their young” and of bees who eat their way into hardwood to build their nests. Cockroaches, he says, were the plague of Willlamsburg at that time because “when you go into the larder with a candle at night everything is covered with them.” There is also a curious kind of lice which are “another of our plagues, for where there is not great care taken to destroy them they are as numerous in our as ches in our kitchens. ' Fhe planters call all such peddlers as sell their goods at great rate chinches, the name known here of these blood-sucking insects, and chinching has become the word in use for cheating. = He tells of fireflies whose , i they have any, stand on top of little horns like those of a snail.” They are the favorite food of frogs, and he has seen frogs “of an évening take in little coals of lighted punk as greedily as chickens feed on corn.” Describes Wood Tick. “There is also 8 wood tick,” the nat- uralist writes, “which, when it has filled itself with the blood of a horse, falls sun, becomes thy wn multitude.” He is convinced that “but- terflies change ‘into hummi A He is hard-pressed to explain finding the shells of sea creatures and the skel- etons of fishes imbedded in the rocks of mountains, “where it were a mad- ness to imagine that the sea had ever prevailed.” Some have advanced the theory, he says, that these mountain tops once were the floor of the sea and that the creatures were imbedded in rock which then was forming. He 1ds, however, that these curious bits of stone were iced just as they are the earth thro some mysterious er. Anybody with common sense, he says, can see that the sea never could have covered these mountains. He continues: “And if there be no petrifection, but a real production, which I suppose no man will deny, why may not a "rh' or thigh bone, or any and abou 2 o . | ness, sat his by Senator Walsh, and the witness was ed to explain many expressions of the writers. His answers to the Mon- tana Senator's questions were unsatis- factory and led Walsh to observe, “Your memory, like that of many witnesses we t | have interrogated, is unfortunately ob- iy re. Senator Walsh questioned the witness about his work for Connecticut manu- facturers who appeared before the House ways and means committee dur- ing the tariff hearing. Eyanson said Briets o be. used in- piesenting thelr s n case committee. alsh from the wor.k‘ ulza:; here. W the same, wasn't it?” demanded Senator Walsh. Eyanson sald it was not, and that while he had prepared briefs for the use of the manufacturers he gave Sena- tor Bingham data for which he asked, to aid in the consideration of the tariff. Senator Walsh declared that he was unable to see any difference. Senator Walsh appeared especially in- terested in obtaining from Eyanson interpretation of the attitude of Mr. Hubbard when the latter wrote on one occasion, “I know” némthe work he Washingfon, This expressio: Later, Senator Walsh referred to ex- tracts from a board of directors’ meet~ ing of the Connecticut organization on May 9 last, and Juo'ed from the min- utes of that meeting a copy of the let- ter Senator Bingham wrote asking for expert who could advise on matters of interest to Connecticut. The Senator said in his letter that nobody in his office had sufficient information about the general subject to give him the service he need- ed in his work on the Senate finance committee. Senator Walsh endeavored ,to obtain from Eyanson an expression of opinion as to whether he was in fact a repre. sentative of the Manufacturers’ Asso ciation while in Senator Bingham's em- loy, rather than an employe interested exclusively in furnishing Senator Bing- bham with such infc sonally might wish. Walsh quoted from a letter written to Mr. Hubbard, president of the associa- tion, by Earnest S, Davis of Portland, Corn. This letter was Davis’ expression with reference to the association's re- quest for the dues of members on Sena- tor Bingham's request for the loan of an aid.
