The wounded gangster, after a day.in which he rallied from the effects of his wounds, took a sudden turn for the worse early today. Hospital attendants said he became restless and complained of being in great pain. Hypodermics | were administered to quiet him. Police Commissioner Mulrooney sald the fragments of evidence which had| been gathered indicated Diamond had been shot by members of his own gang and not by rival gangsters. Jean Nash, formerly owner of a beauty parlor in Newark, N. J., was the second girl to be questioned. She was brought in after police received an anonymous telephone call saying she had been heard to say in a West Fifty- second street grill last week that Dia- mond had less than 10 days to live. She denied knowing Diamond or any of the other persons mentioned in the case and vehemently denied making any statement regarding Diamond’s exs pectancy of life. Police released her after four hours' questioning. 4 Efforts were redoubled ay tolo- cate Jacob Ginsberg, manager of the Monticello Hotel, where Diamond was shot by two men who came his room as he sat on the edge of /his bed Sunday forenoon. Ginsberg, who has been described as a close friend of Dia- mond, disappeared after baving the wounded gangster taken i the Gins- berg suite in the hotel and calling an ambulance. ¥ Commissioner Mulrooney said he did not believe there was gny connection between the shooting Diamond and the supposed kidnaping of Leo Stein- berg, 28 years old, lyn rum-runner, uve:lnl days. working on the theory that Steinberg had been kidn by Vannie 3 an associate of’ Diamond in the liquor business, and/that the shooting of Dia- mond was & reprisal for the kidnaping.

NEW YORK, October 14.—A pro- longed drought throughout the East today brought fears of a water famine and serious crop damage. ‘The situation was viewed with such alarm in Philadelphia that the Presby- terian Ministerial Association urged prayers be offered for rain. Ministers were requested to lead their congre- gations in asking for relief and Mayor Mackey was asked to designate next Sunday as a day for public prayer. Rain has not fallen to any appreci- able extent in Philadelphia for 18 d Throughout Pennsylvania communi were suffering from a shortage of water and crops were being endangered by the dry spell. At Marietta, Lancaster County, a house-to-house check of water leaks was ordered and posters put up asking residents to refrain from washing clothes. Midsummer Temperatures. Throughout New England Midsum- aner temperatures prevailed, while in rural sections of Connecticut wells were dry and both residents and cattle faced a water famine. | In Boston the temperature reached 87 degrees yesterday, the highest for the day in the als of the Weather Bureau. The heat was general through- out the State and numerous prostra- tions ovccurred. In the White Moun- tains of New Hampshire, the weather was slightly cooler, but in marked con- trast to October 13, 1925, when snow plows were needed to cut paths over the mountain roads. Maryland Faces Shortage. The water famine extended into Maryland, where at Annapolis the reser- voir was so low its sides have been described as resembling & deserted foot ball stadium. The city would have been without water a fortnight age but for 200,000 gallons drawn daily from private supply at the United States Naval Academy. ‘The prolonged dry spell in New Jer- sey has resulted.in an outbreak of forest fires, 30 being reported in the State. In the two most serious blazes, 60 bungalows were destroyed between Mays Landing and Pleasantville, while 11,550 acres of timber land have been burned over near Atsion. After a tour of State forests in New York, two State conservation officials sald they would recommend closing the Northern Adirondack forest to the pub- lic to relieve the fire hazard. RITES FOR MRS.

OCONOMOWOC, Wis., October 14.— Fred Pabst, sr., head of the Milwaukee brewing concern bearing his name, yes- terday announced that nearly $1,000,- 000 worth of equipment for making le- galized beer is being installed in his company’s plant. ‘The’new equipment will be held in rcadiness to start the manufacture of beer on short notice, he said. It is being housed in a building unused since prohibition, remodeled for the purpose. “It is a risk, I know,” Mr. Pabst said. “However, public opinion is a pretty good barometer. It is my own firm opinion that beer will return in the not distant future, and I am willing to take ‘the chance—so willing, in fact, that I have staked almost $1,000,000 on l;l! opinion. I want to be pre- pared. Mr. Pabst declared America's na- tional economic structure would be strengthened with the return of beer. He cited pre-prohibition figures on the brewing industry to support his con- tention, stating “The normal yearly production of beer before prohibition was about 50,- 000,000 barrels. To make this approx- imately 58,000,000 bushels of grain were required. Some 65,000,000 men were employed in the brewing industry alone, with an additional more directly dependent upon it. This number included clerical forces, box- makers, coopers, label printers, bottlers and those in allied lines. “About 27,000 members of the build- ing trades also indirectly owed their living to brewers and there were other tens of thousands who looked to the in- dustry in one way or another for bread and butter.” Just how the change in the present aw is to be brought about, if and when such a change is made, Mr. Pabst de- clared a matter for the Federal Gov- ernment alone to decide. He added: “It will be a simple matter and could be accomplished overnight if Congress will agree to modification of the Vol- stead act. That is all that is required.” In the last 12 months nearly 2,000 tons of coal were shipped from Scotland for use by the Samana-Sanchez Rail- way in the Dominican Republic.
