Workers in the “life or death” shaft to rescue Floyd Collins from Sand Cave shortly before 11 o’clock this, morning sent word to doctors and nurses in the Red Cross tent “to be ready for any thing.” The air was electrio with ex pectacy, but there was no formal word as to what was coming. Telephone lines from Sand Cave to Cave City buzzed, and Lieu tenant Governor H. H. Denhardt was called from his lunch and hurried by automobile to the cave. SAND CAVE, Ky., Feb. 13. Long hours of drilling and of dig ging throughout the night had dis closed today no fissure to expedite the removal of Jloyd Collins, en tombed cave explorer. When the core drill, 15 feet from where the shaft was being sunk, reached the* depth of 65 feet, a tunnel was disclosed. But the drill test in the bottom of the shaft revealed no such tunnel. This means that a tunnel drilled through hard limestone may have to be cut to the point where the test disclosed the fissure, so that (Continued on Page 2, Column 8.) -Agff 10l II 111 II L. 'IR.

If your people wish to be fooled, I can’t prevent it. But I am warning them publicly. He declares his statement, which to to be published conspicuously on the first page of the Baltimore Catholic Review, consuming type set three columns wide, should not be taken as in any way reflecting on the work and methods of arch diocesan charitable organizations “the St. Vincent de Paul Society* Waste Bureau, ito allied organiza -9 tions. our parish activities, our mendicant religious organizations, such as the Little Sisters of the Poor, and others.” "The work of these agencies,” the statement continues, “is known to our people. The Bureau of Catholic Charities and our own Baltimore Catholic Review need no introduc tion to the public and no formal permission to carry-on their work. They deserve the support of all Catholics of .the archdiocese. To them might well be given the money going to semi-fraudulent sriMsaea now being foisted on our own people by men clever enough to deceive and make toys of some few of our unsuspecting clergy. In opening his statement, Arch bishop Curley declares the Catholic people have been imposed on many times in recwt years by money getting schemes nut into operation mostly by shrewd and dishonest lay agents, who make the religion a cloak for graft. He says “We have had fake priests and make-believe staters col lecting from house to house.” He then tells of several other schemes which ho says are fraudulent one§. Denounces Punch Cards. Then he comes specifically to the Carmelite Fathers and says: “There is another classical case.

It is that of books in which the making of liquor is described. Patrick Mac Gill, a well-known Irish ijovelist, told a Belfast gudience that one of his booljs in which de described the way in .which poteen was manufac tured in Ireland had tyeen a fail ure financially until prohibition was introduced to America. Since then the book began to sell widely, and he was now making a fortune out of it.- Carmelite Fathers here, today de clined to comment on the Arch bishop’s statement.

Father Paschasius did toy, how ever. that he had read the state ment and that today he had ordered the collection of money through the punch card system stopped imme diately. The Carmelite Fathers are well known in Washington. They, sev eral years ago, purchased a very valuable piece of property located on a high hili ,on Rhode Island nue near Second street northeast, formerly used as a girls’ seminary. The building, formerly an old man* sion, was remodeled. It contains a large chapel. Weekly retreats are held in the building.

Mrs. Mary Alma Kimball Gets Absolute tyvorc^—Named Two Affinities Mrs. Mary Alma Kimball, who as Mary Alma Mclntyre, married Wil liam Wallace Kimball in Baltimore August 14, 1916,, and who charged her husband with misconduct in a suit med last July, was awarded ah interlocutory decree of absolute divorce by Justice Hoehling in Equity Court today. Among other things, testimony at the trial disclosed that Kimball visited the corespondent frequently, while the latter lived in the Chau mont Apartment House in this city, and wrote her love notes with great frequency. Mrs. Kimball, represented by At torneys Raymond Neudecker and David A. Hart, said her husband changed from this particular affin ity to still another after his first wrongs had been forgiven and when his conduct revived the old charges she could stand it no longer. 'Letters identified as having been written, by the corespondent, a war worker,* called Kimball “loving Wal ly,” and “my worst habit.” Under the terms of the decree Kimball must pay alimony and counsel fees. civrwoK GET ran (Continued from First Page.) it may be used as a starting point from which side-drifting will begin for the cavern where Collins lies, either dead or alive. This will consume at least forty eight hours. Not Discouraged. "We are not discouraged by the drill test,” H. T. Carmichael, director bf operations said, ♦*al thbugh it was a disappointment to us.that no crevice was found.sim ilar to the one which the drill showed when we made the previous test about 16 feet southeast of the shaft. The results of this second test means that we will have to cut laterally In one and possibly several directions whpn we get down to the levels at which Collina is believed to be. “Although it will bo harder to dig through lime stone than through muck,'it will be much easier tn re gard to the timbering and will aave us considerable time.” M 9:40 o’clock thia morning every one was ordered to leave'the ph by Carmichael. The import of the order has not yet been determfned. There still remains the possibility that a minor cavern may oust under another part of the shaft, but this. It was said, will be re latively unimportant aa far as ex pediting digging is concerned. The strong draft continues to be felt at the bottom.of the shaft and is believed to come from small fis sures similar to those already en countered. z The cold has brought an add!- 'tional threat against the morale of the camp. The lowering cliff, which only a. few days ago radiated the heat of a summer-like sun, now mothers icicles hanging like huge stalactites, some fourteen inches in length. Derrick Ice-Coated The derrick is covered with a sheeting,of glittering ice. Ice coats the timbers in the shaft and even the moisture tn the limestone ledges at its bottom has been frozen. Picks in the shaft today began striking large loose boulders and jutting rocks, hanging loosely among their fellows.

Below this in the shaft to known to be a limestone ledge and there remains the hope that this ledge may form the roof of Collins’ prison. At Cave City the military Inquiry sitting to hear testimony regarding, the sand cave disaster went into its fourth day's sessions No list of witnesses had been announced, and it was regarded as likely the session would be only a continuance of the automatic testimony of hill folk crowded into the record through the persistent questioning of the five officer-lawyers who compose the court. That the shaft is the only feasi ble method of rescuing Colling that the work of the troops here has been a matter for general com mendation and that an acetylene torch could not have been used in effecting a rescue are the things the State of Kentucky is attempting to prove through its inquiry.

Holds Up Busi ness, But Congress Fund Bill Will Be Passed The House is today attempting to recover its dignity after a field day indulged in by the wits and wags of the lower body of Congress, who yesterday spent an afternoon pranc ing around on their mental steeds,, riding hard but getting nowhere. The House had Up for considera tion the legislative appropriation bill, making appropriations for' their own branch of the Government- Despite the horseplay; the bill is going through the hopper in record time and should be completed today. Congressman Thomas L. Blanton opened the fun by introducing an amendment to reduce the size of the House from 435 to 304 mem bers. Amid general consternation he suggested that the names of the unlucky 131 members to be elimi nated might be drawn from a hat. Great sighs of relief went up when the amendment went out on a point of order. Guides Are Discussed Then came a comment about the guide service at the Capitol, under fire earlier in the afternoon. It was pointed put that a group of disabled soldiers, then in the gal lery, were being shown through the Capitol by the guides without charge. 1 "Who would charge hospital pa tients to see this. Capitol?” shouted Congressman Taylor of Colorado. ‘T Was afraid, from the rumors that I have heard floating around about the Capitol lately, that some beUeved they would even charge a dead man,”. Blanton replied dryly. Congressman Tom Connally of Texas precipitated the next act in the comedy by protesting against the title "legislative council” which has been substituted for the draft ing service. “It is a reflection on this House to call them legislative counsel, be cause that implies that they not only draw the bills but do oiir thinking for us,” he complained. “Dislocates” His Remarks. Congressman Luce 'of Massa chusetts then got the floor to talk about the counsel and was inter rupted by BlantdK, who asked if he would yield. f "I will not,” Luce replied. "The last time I yielded to the genue man he so dislocated my remarks that they have never yet been properly put together.” After a few more members had chimed ih. Congressman Winslow of Massachusetts, who claims the record of being the stoutest member pf Congress, rose ponderously to his feet and said: "Mr. Chairman, I hesltpte to participate in the pastime of these' gentlemen, two from Massachusetts and two from Texas, who have been* dancing a kind of four-handed reel around here, but tny experience. with the bill drafting business leads; me to think that s I ought to con-1 tribute some little ,to the merrl-1 ment and seriousness of the occa-1 sion.” Qualified on Weights. _ He aroused a gale of laughter by remarking that when he first came to Congress he was put on the Committee on Weights and Measures, for which “he knew he was Qualified.” He told of an experience while serving ,on a House committee where a technical argument came up and lawyer after lawyer on the committee was drawn into the squabble until "at the end of the second meeting we had heard from nine lawyer fellows, no one of them agreeing to anything any other law yer fellow had paid. "After we had had two, sessions during which nine lawyer members had 'said that everybody else was wrong and no one proving that he was right, the chairman, wise and, upright judge, suggested a subcom mittee and duly appointed as such All the lawyers left on the com mittee who had hvt talked on the question. So far as I know they have never reported yet. That was twelve years ago.* After a few- more passages at arms Congressman Upshaw, famous dry wit and evangelist, said that it was his opinion "that somebody ought to pass the hat and take up a collection for we nave had too much fun free of charge." POLICE TAKE ESCAPED PRISONER-SLAYER HUNTINGTON, W. Va., Feb. 15. —Police here today were holding a man said to be Joe Kitterman, thirty-eight, who escaped from the penitentiary at Canyon* City, Colo., March 9, 1913, xhlle serving a forty-five-year sentence for killing a railroad detective. A comparison of fingerprint rec ords made, the identification of Kit terman certain, the police said.

HUGHES Interhstional News Service. FORT WORTH Tex., Feb. 13. Science scored again when tha city of Houston, threatened with the hideous yellow fever plague, the disease that created great havoc with the second expedition of Co lumbus, in San Domingo, in tho year 1495, quickly subdued, without pants and with the loss of but one lifo, the once terrifying malady. Eighty-seven residents of a Hou ston hotel, where the first yellow fever outbreak in years was dis covered, have just been released from quarantine, after State health officers had battled the plague to rapid defeat. The lone victim was an Italian from New Orleans, who was Sica on his arrival in Texas. Whether the disease was imported into this country through the ill fated Columbus party, or was spawned with the delivery of slaves from the African coast, has long been a matter of conjecture in .medi cal quarters; but its treatment, pre vention and extinction have remain ed apace with the mighty strides of science. Mosquito To Blame. Tellow fever, quick in its death dealing and contagious qualities, once alarming to the physicians of the world, is transmitted only through the bite of a certain epe dies of house mosquito (aedes calopus), commonly found to exist in small collections of stagnant water in such apparently harmless sources as broken bottles, roof gutters and cisterns. The speotes is a poor traveler, breeding, living and dying in a small radius, rarely traveling sev enty-five yards from its breeding place. It seldom feeds before late afternoon, or nightfall, and is rare ly found in an altitude of 3,000 feet or more. Foresight, through drastic "anti mosquito campaigns,” had un doubtedly saved Houston and the surrounding country from the "fly ing death,” an expression of the peon of Mexico, where the disease is ever epidemic and always a po tential danger to Texas and the nation. Cost Many Lives. After the notable outbreak, in Philadelphia, of® 1793, great loss of life followed in the wake of the ugly disease, although prior to that time epidemics had raged in Boston in the years 1691, 1693, and 1695. Other cities to feel its dead ly fangj? included New York, in 1702, 1743, 1748, 1762; Philadelphia, 1699, 1732, 1741, 1743, 1747 and 1762; Norfolk, Va., 1747. The first appearance of the malady in Texas, so far as has been recorded, was in 1833 at Co lumbia, on the Brazos, then one of the principal ports for introducing goods into the country. Galveston and Houston were stricken in 1889, 1844 and 1848, the fever again breaking out in Galveston during 1853, 1854 and 1858; at Matagorda in 1862, and, in 1863, at Sabine, Houston, Brownsville and Corpus Christi. TROUSERS To Match 1 Your Odd Coats EISEMAN’S, 7th f ■f mils HEPItMUED in (Bras Over a Million Nationals Ro turned; 30Q,000 Turks Sent Home By ROBERT .8. THORNBURGH, International Rows Bervtee, Exchange of population between Greece and Turkey, on the result of an international agreement fol lowing the signing of the Lausanne convention, has resulted in about 1,100,000 refugees entering Greece and the reparation of approximately 300,000 Turks* Thia information has been made public by James R. Mood, of the European division, of the Depart ment of Commerce. "Tl*b application of this conven tion inevitably was attended by temporary difficulties for both coun tries, but the heavier part Os the burden fell upon Greece, since the number of Greeks residing in Eastern Thrace and of Greeks and Armenians in Anatolia were many times the number of Turks resi dent in Western “Thrace and dther portions of Greece," Mood said. Mood pointed out that it fell to the lot of the Greek government, assisted by such foreign relief agencies as the American Red Cross and the Near East Relief, to take care of the. majority of the refugees returning to Greece. Most of them were practically destitute., Cost Runs High. "It cost the Greek government 400,000 simply to transport the refugees from Asia Minor.” Mood continued. "During the winter of 1922-1923 the American Red Cross fed about 800,000 refugees before it retired from the field. Many millions of dollars were ppent for necessary food and clothing. "The peak of this relief work was reached in April, 1923, when 583,000 Greek nationals were being fed daily. The Near East Relief also saved thousands of lives through its child feeding during the same period.” Mood said that the Council of the League of Nations cams to the sup port of the Greek government, on condition that the Greek banks and bankers underwrite at least £1,000,- 000 for settling the refugees in per manent work. The Bank of Eng land subscribed this sum. Expenditures of money were con trolled by a Settlement Commission consisting of two members appointed by the Greek Government and two members named by the League of Nations.

SOFIA, Feb. 18.—The Macedo* nian question continues to be the cause of friction betweerf Serbia and Bulgaria. It seems evident that the success of the present mission of Premier Tsankoff to Serbia must depend upon the way in which he proposes to treat future Macedonian ques- which must Inevitably cause trouble In the Balkins if they are left unsettled, as has been the ■practice heretofore. The newspapers of both coun tries seise upon any outrage per petrated by or against the Macedo nians as a sign of persecution, and both Premier Pasitch and Premier Tsankoff have been in turn charged with persecution or praised for their actions. One incident which caused much irritation in Belgrade was the fact that the day Premier Tsankoff ar rived there a prominent former Macedonian, who had entered the Serbian service for the purpose of persecuting Macedonians, was killed by one of his old comrades. The Serbian newspapers connect ed the two events and charged Premier Pasitch with the betrayal of Serbia’s vital interests. Although Premier Tsankoff is in no way connected with the Mace donians, he has long been known as their friend and is greatly re spected in Macedonian circles for his fair-minded dealings.

HOOWTS R 5 CONTROL OF AVIATION Thinks Civilian Flying Will Be oeme More Stable in 1925, and Continue By ROBERT 8. THORNBURGH. Civil aviation in tne United States will take a long step toward a position of permanent security in 1925, the Department of Comrpcrce declared. In a recently issued of ficial statement. “The closing months of 1924 saw a remarkable increase in the inter est taken in aeronautics in this country,” P. E. D. Nagle, aviation expert of the department, said. “The public shows a growing ap preciation of the importance to the United States of this new means of transportation and communication proposals for Federal legislation to develop American air service have aroused favorable comment in Con gress.” Big Drawback. Secretary of Commerce Hoover holds as one of the drawbacks to civil aviation development the fail ure of Congress to enact laws which would regulate this means of transportation. Licensing and examining of pilots, rigid inspection and approval of aircraft* establish ment of proper landing fields and aerial traffic laws are regarded aa prerequisites to successful admin istration es civil aeronautics by’ •de partmental exberta American progress in aeronautics has been retarded by a number of serious obstacles, according to Nagle, who enumerated them as follows: 1. American operating costs are higher than those of any other large country. 2. The United States has no Government agency specifically authorized to act as aid to the development l of civil air naviga tion, nor to regulate ife 8. No financial aid is given to the industry or to any operating company by the Government. 4. Lack of interest on the part of the* public. Opinion Changes. “There are indications of a favorable change in public opinion in the last few months which has given impetus to plans for develop ing American civil aeronautics that is bound to produce some perma nent results,” Nagle declared. The last hundred years has seen the birth of nearly every means of transportation and communications worthy of consideration from the standpoint of efficiency; Practical ly every one of them has gone through a period of slow growth and has suffered from lack of pub lic interest and support. Foreign Advances. Foreign countries have pro gressed further than the United States in the adoption of definite national policies on aviation espe cially as regards its commercial application. In most European countries the governments have embarked on a program of finan cial aid to companies organized under their own laws And in case where no domestic company of fered the service, to companies of foreign nationality.
