Morse, the New York financier, con- victed of violating the federal banking can be forced to serve only ten years of his fifteen-year sentence, ac- cording to an admission made in the United States district court yesterday by Assistant District Attorney John H. Henley when hearing on the habeas corpus petition instituted in Mr. Morse’s half was begun. This admission, though not passed on by the judge, practically cuts five years from the banker’s sentence, al- though Mr. Henley ccntended that the prisoner had no right to apply for a writ of habeas corpus until’ he had first served the ten vears required. The prosecutor’s admission was based on the fact that whilc Mr. Morse was convicted on several different counts, his sentence was a “gross” one, failing to divide tce time among the counts upon which he was convicted, and the statute under which he was sentenced a limit of ten years.

SUICIDE REGARDED AS A PRIVATE AFFAIR Commit of Physicians So Reports to National Bedy. Los Angeles, June 25.—“Suicide is a private affair There is no more just- ification for the publication of ‘such accounts than, there is for publishing otner private matters.” This is the assertion of a committee of the Americar Academy of Medicine, which investigated the question of sui- cide, and in making its report here uested the press of America to re- frain from further publication of such affairs, “If, however,” the report declared, “the members of the press are still skeptical as to the fact that they are now accessories to crime, we suggest that they assist in the study of thg conditions.” Several suggestions In this respect are made, and it is also proposed that if the papers insist upon printing scandals and news of suicides, it be limited to a separate sheet of distinct vellow color, so “clean minds may aveid the corruption. If such a meth- od is desirable for athletic news, why not extend its use?” “The rapid in in the death rate from suicide in the United States, with the conviction that a prominent cause of this deplorable act was to be found in the suggestive effect of news- paper publication of details,” is given as the reason for the investigation.

Cofferdam’s Strength to Be Studied for Days Before Water is Lowered Further—New Problem in Navy. New York, Junz 25.—The Herald's Washington correspondent writes: More and more acute is the interest shown here, especially among the tech- nical men of the army and navy, in the great problem of upwatering and raising the Maine, now being carried out in Havana harbor. The last re- ports showed that army engineers were examining the dam with anxious care. The fact that this critical examination might last for ten davs or two weeks has taken attention momentarily from the sunken ship itself to the great cof- ferdam that envelopes her. Engineers are interestd keenly in this and are so thoroughly alive to the difficulty of lowering the water within and the hundred and one chanees of something going wrong that tiey hesitate to express their admira- tion-for the manner in which the work has advanced thus far. Opinion here is that if -the gigantic work is carried out-without misirap it will be one of the greatest engineering achivements of the century, while, it it is carried out even after difficulties are overcome, it will be a work which the United States government can well be_proud. | There is the gravest danger of seri- ous-mishaps according to the admis- sions of the most conmservative ex- perts here. In the first place, weak- nesses may develop in the structurs of the cofferdam at any moment, as the pressure of the water increases. To | carry out the programme the structure will b2 taxed about to its limit. No task similar in magnitude has been ttempted before, so the engineers are working in an unexplored fleld, with- out past achievements to guide them TRACE OF HUSBAND LOST FOR FIVE YEARS, Wife of Harrington Tells Strange Story in Asking for Care of His Estate. - Moynt Vernon, Y., June 25- ‘When' Mrs. Rose Harrington_ap- plied to Supreme Court Justice Mills yesterday to be appointed a commitiee of the estate of her husband, Mark W.
