SKELETON MMES
REM® MYSTERY
ORLANDO, Fla., >'ov. 30.—Ex
hibit ‘‘A,’’ a skeleton found in Spring
swamp near Rock Springs by hunt
ers last winter, was in the possession
J of authorities here today, and the
mysterious disappearance and sup
uosed death of Alexander P. Boyer,
a former United States army officer,
remained a greater mystery than
ever.
John W. Clore, tried for murder in
connection with Boyer’s supposed
death, was acquitted by a jury here
* late yesterday after twenty minute- -
deliberation by the trial body. Clore
was indicted jointly with his step
son, Raymond Taylor, on a charge |
of murder, the prosecution al
leging during the trial .that the
two had lured Boyer into the
swamp and there killed him. The
cases were severed, however, when
a physician's affidavit was in
troduced stating that Taylor was ill
and unable to stand trial at this ■
t time. Boyer, according to the prose- .
r outing attorneys, supplied the mo
tive for the killing by attentions to ■
Clone’s wife.
L The state alleged that Boyer was ;
murdered October 1, 1921, follow
ing his disappearance front his farm ,
t near here a short time before. Boyer ,
• lived alone, witnesses said.
Witnesses identified boots and
clothing found near the skeleton as
some similar to articles they had
seen in Boyer’s possession prior to
his disappearance, A collar button,
found near the skeleton, bearing
initials similar to Boyer’s, was intro
duced by state’s attorneys to iden
tify the remains as that of Boyer.
But with the acquittal of Cloie,
the jury failed to identify the skele
ton as that of Boyer, end no indica
tion of further action had been
forthcoming today,
Slayers of Gangman
s In Speeding Motor
Crash Into Tram
NEW YORK, Dec. 1— A speeding
motor car .carrying three men ac
cused by the police of shooting to
death David Tekh, notorious member
of Kid Dropper’s gang, in an east
side gun battle "Wednesday night,
collided with a Long Island train
' near St. James, Long Island, today
resulting in the death of one of the
men and the serious injury of the
others.
The n.tn who met death was Ben
jamin “Pinky” Levine and the in
jured Abie Beckerman and Charles
Kramer, all with long police records.
They had operated together for many
years, police Inspector Coughlin said,
and had been released in 1922 after
serving six years of an indeterminate
sentence imposed in Chicago for rob
bery of a bank.
Tekh, long one of the most feared I
■ gunmen of New York’s underworld,
lost his life when his gun caught in
his vest. He was shot by men who
drove to the sidewalk near him and
opened fire without warning.
A kit of yeggman’s stools were
found in the recovered automobile
today.

WASHINGTON, Dec. I—Sixty
sehators and representatives from
southern states met in conference
today to discuss means of aiding the
farmer, particularly the cotton grow
er. Several hours were devoted to
a discussion of various legislative,
proposals designed to bring relief to
the agricultural sections. The con

on a legislative program. Members
of the committee are Representative
Black, Texas, chairman; Senator
Harris, Georgia, and Representatives
Wilson, Louisiana; Lowrey, Missis

centered about the necessity of as
suring an adequate and cheap sup
ply of oalcium arsenate for use as

their determination of pressing for
enactment of the program recom

Christmas Tree Ship
Arrives m Chicago
Piloted by Widow
CHICAGO, Dec. I.—Chicago’s
Christmas ship is back in port.
The low-lying, mastless old
schooner Fearless, limped up the
Chicago river yesterday groaning
under the weight of a section of
Michigan evergreens while a little
woman trod her decks and upheld
the traditions of her husband, killed
while bringing Chicago its cargo of
Christmas trees.
Eleven years ago Captain Schu
enemann was drowned when his
boat went down in a terriffic lake
I storm while bringing his annual
load of evergreens here. His widow
took up the task and each year
went to the forests of Michigan,
“spotted” her trees, hired woods
men to cut them, chartered a ship
to haul them and brought them to
Chicago.

Mil BIRTHPLACE
OF ffIGINII DARE
MANTEO, N. C., Dec. I.—A
movement has been started by a
group of citizens to permanently
mark historical spots, and one of
the places to be designated by a
monument, if the plans materialize,
is the birthplace of Virginia Dare,
the first white child born on Amer
ican soil. The spot is on Roanoke
Island, often referred to as “the
cradle of the English race in Amer
ica.’’ There is some doubt as to
the exact spot where Virginia Dare
was born, but it is believed to be
near Fort Raleigh, about three
miles north of Manteo.
Mounds of earth forming the sides
of a pentagon, at each angle of
which is a stone post protruding
about a foot from the ground, show
the location of the old fort. In the
center of the fort there is now an
unpretentious store marker on
which is inscribed s ne of the his
torical records of the place. Un
scrupulous relic collectors have
marred the present stone marker,
bu ! its inscription still can be read.
The county of which Roanoke
Island is a part is named Dare, in
hono- of the first English child born
in America, ’and the seat of the
county is named Manteo in honor ot_
the Indian chief who was the first
person to be baptized in the new
land. Manteo enjoys the distinction
of being the only county seat in the
United States, with the single ex
ception of Key West, Fla., located
on an island.
Today, the isk'.nd is sparsely set
tled. The inhabitants make a liveli
hood by fishing. They do little
farming. In fact, it is said that
there is only one commercial farmer
on t- c whole island, which is twelve
miles long and about three miles
wide.
Th .• North Carolina state depart
ment of education and the state
historical commission, in order to
present to the people the history of
Roanoke Island in pictorial form, in
1921 had ‘the settlement of the
island enacted and photographed in
6,000 feet of motion picture film.
August 18, 1902, the first celebra
tion in honor of the birth of Vir
ginia Dare was held at Fort Ra
leigh. Since then the celebrations
have been repeated from time to
time. It is said that at these occa
sions only has the flag of Queen
Elizabeth—a red cross on a field of
white —been displayed.
Decision on Appeal
By Garrett Is Delayed
Pending Brother’s Trial
CUMBERLAND COURTHOUSE,
Va., Dec. 1. —Whether Robert O. Gar
rett. Cumberland county clerk, under
sentence to five years’ imnrisonment
in connection with the shooting to
death of the Rev. Edward Sylvester
Pierce in front of the Baptist par
sonage here on last June 5, will be
granted a new trial will not be an
nounced by Judge B. D. White until
after the trial of his brother, Larkin
C. Garrett, which begiins here De
| cember 11.
| The judge made this announcement
i here today just before hearing pre
liminary motions in Larkin Garrett’s
case. The hearing on these motions
was considerably delayed on account
of the absence of L. O. Wendenberg,
! of defense counsel, who was delayed
en route by trouble with his auto
mobile.
Judge White denied a motion by
defense counsel for postponement of
Larkin Garrett’s trial until after the
Christmas holidays and also over
ruled a motion by the prosecution
for a change'of venue.
As in th e case of his brother, Lar
kin Garrett will be tried by a jury
from another county. The prosecu
tion’s motion for a change of venire
was granted by Judge White, who
said he would name the county later.
NOTION'S BUSINESS
BITING ICTION
Os NEW CONGRESS
(Leased Wire Service to Tlie, Journal.)
"(Copyright, 1923.)
WASHINGTON, Dec. L—Ameri
can enterprise, in the language of
trade association leaders here, sits
today on the steps of the capitol,
waiting for word from congress. A
lull in activity is reported from many
fields. Whether it will be only a lull
or another period of readjustment of
uncertain duration depends, accord
ing to the exponents of business
here, upon the character of the word
that comes from house and senate.
Congress meets Monday and what
it will do, or attempt to do, or for
business remains today as much of
a guess as it was a year ago. Indus-
Trial leaders are somewhat fearful
and have adopted a policy of extreme
caution. Buying is largely from hand
to mouth; selling commitments run
only to near dates instead of for
months In the future, and employ
ment figures remain barely sternly.
Even this is ♦imewhat better t r
the situation forecast two months
ago. The betterment is ascribed
largely to Secretary Mellon’s tax re
duction proposals. Those proposals
came as a welcome light to many in
dustries which were frankly grop
ing toward the future. They profess
to see in the proposals an oppor
tunity to press ahead again toward
prosperity, freed of a part of the
heavy tax burden which has handi
capped them during the period of
revival.
Lower Taxes Awaited
If congress will signify early in
the session its Intention to enact the
Mellon proposals substantially into
law, trade association officials here
believe that there will be an im
mediate revival of business and that
a year prosperity lies ahead.
Business throughout the United
States is represented as planning it
hope for better times upon lowered
taxes. If, however, congress makes
it clear that taxes will not be lowered,
the present uncertainty will con
tinue—‘probably for months —until
a definite tax revision orogr'fcra to
worked out and passed.
The proposed tax reductions would
apply to next year’s business and
for that reason many industrial con
cerns are unable to formulate their
programs for 1924 until they can
figure with some certainty upon
their tastes. This is notably true in
building constructions, transporta
tion, the iron and stele industries
and manufacturing generally. When
it is recalled that manufacturing
alone gives employment to about ten
million workers and that the value
of its finished products runs about
$40,000,000,000, the extent of the
widespread influence of taxation
upon business more ap-
parent.
In the iron and industries
production is down to about seventy
per cent of capacity. A further de
crease of small proportions is antic
ipated after the holidays. Much of
its present activity is due to the
boom business in the automobile in
dustry, and the falling off generally
is ascribed to the lack of further or
ders for railway equipment and sup
plies.
Railroads Not Buying
The railroads are not buying as
they were six months ago, as they
too, are waiting on congress. A pro
gram involving orders totaling $500,-
000,000 to $1,000,000,000 waits, the
carriers say, on developments in con
gress. As a result of the waiting
policy, railroad supply houses as well
as iron and steel mills, also face un
certainty for 1924 and manufactur
ing generally, another link in the
chain, has teen noticeably slowed
down.
The coal industry which supplies
these plants and the railroads is also
having its day of uneasiness. That
industry gives employment to more
than 750,000 men. The market is re
ported as stagnant and mines have
closed down by the hundreds in Illi
nois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and the producing states of the
southwest. Hundreds of other mines
are running onl'y from one to three
days a week.
Tax reduction legislation, many op
erators assert, would immediately
help this situation. Coal orders now
withheld because buyers can not
count upon the future with reassur
ance would be forthcoming, it is
claimed, and tens of thousands of
workers would go back to their jobs
in the coal fields.
Building construction shows its
seasonal decline after two record
breaking years. Leaders in the in
dustry look for a fair buhiess next
year; but if tax reduction legislation
is enacted, the volume will be large,
it is believed, as building construc
tion is tied up closely with the coun
try’s general prosperity.
Officials here are much concerned
with the forthcoming monthly sur
vey of employment. Little, if any.
increased employment is expected
and Washington will be <.-ite well
pleased jf the survey does not show
an actual decline of small propor
tions. Within the past two weeks pre
liminary reports covering labor con
ditions have not bagn altogether re
assuring and the fear is entertained
that a general feeling of uncertainty
as to what congress will do may
lead to unemployment during the
winter.

HUNDRETH ANNIVERSARY
CELEBRATED OF MONROE
DOCTRINE PROMULGATION
Attitude of U. S. Is Assailed |
in Speech of Professor
Philip Marshal Brown Made
at Philadelphia) Pa.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2.—Com
memoration of the one hundredth
anniversary of the Monroe Doc-.
trine was continued here last might
when diplomatic representatives of
several Latin-American countries
delivered addresses at a meeting of
the American Academy of Political
and Social Science. Secretary of I
State Hughes opened the centennial I
observance here last night when he i
spoke on the Monroe Doctrine un-1
der the joint auspices of the Amer- j
ican academy and the Philadelphia .
forum.
Those who spoke Saturday included :
Jacobo Varela, Uruguayan minister 1
to the United States; Dr. Ricardo
J. Alfaro, minister from Panama;
Salvador Cordova, minister from
Honduras, and Professor Philip
Marshall Brown, of Princeton uni
versity.
Dr.. Alfaro said the Monroe doc
trine has redounded to the benefit
of the Latin-American nations, de
fending them from those possibili
ties that endanger their independent
life.
Senor Cordova declared with
out the Moproe Doctrine, the na
tional territory of Honduras might
have been placed under a foreign
flag.
Rights of U. S.
The United States has no valid
reason or right to arrogate to it
self the interpretation of the
Monroe Doctrine. said Professor
Philip Marshall Brown.
“This doctrine is essentially a
pan-American principle that con
cerns all the nations of this hem
isphere alike,” he said. “The Unit
ed States niay at times be con-j
•strained in an acute emergency to
take the lead in the defense of this
principle, but it cannot rightfully •
claim if as private property. The I
other nations of the American con
tinents properly resent such state
ments as Secretary Hughes un
fortunately has seen fit to quote
with approval from President Wil
son: ‘That the Monroe Doctrine was
proclaimed by the United States on
her own authority. It always has
been maintained, and always will
be maintained upon her, own respon
sibility.’
“From the Latin-American point
of view, there is no sound reason,
either in the very nature of the
Monroe Doctrine or in the inherent

right of every nation to safeguard
its interests. Why should the Unit
ed States claim it as private na
tional policy?’ The more we explain
and disclaim, the more these other
American nations suspect our ul
terior motives or accuse us of arro
gant bad manners.
Distrust Growing
“There is no use denying the fact
that the recent pan-American con
ference in Sanitago served in a
marked way to increase distrust and
hostility because of this insistence
on the part of the United States
that it could not permit the formu
lation of the Monroe Doctrine as
a pan-American doctrine to which
all of these nations Could cheerfully
subscribe on a basis of mutual
equality and friendly confidence.
Making due, allowance for the nat
ural courtesy and forbearance of
Latin-Americans in their official
comments on this subject, w eshould
recognize that they cannot under
stand and that they keenly resent
this unyielding, defiant attitude of
the United States. The results of
this policy have been lamentalifPl
The possibility of a. genuine under
standing and sympathy with these
nations is ‘ becoming increasingly
difficult.”
Stating that the "relations of
the United States with the other na
tions of this hemisphere are not
regulated by the Monroe Doctrine,”
Professor Brown that these re
lations “certainly are affected by
our interpretation of the doctrine, as
in the case of Santo Domingo or
Mexico. But the policy, for example,
of withholding recognition of new
governments for diplomatic pur
poses has no proper relation to the
Monroe Doctrine. If is rather a most
unfortunate instance of the offen
sivenesses of American policy to the
peoples of the other American na
tions, and it has been productive of
unhappy results.
Fresh Spirit Needed
“The truth is that,, in spite of obvi
ous difficulties of a diplomatic na
ture for which tho United States is
not entirely responsible, its relations
with these countries need a fresh
orientation and an invigorating
spirit of broad, generous statesman
ship. The menace of Europe in at
tempting to draw them into its
political system and of vitiating the
Monroe Doctrine, if not the con
stant necessity of perfecting our re
lations with all our near neighbors,
requires a true paji-American pol
icy ”
Earlier in his address, touching on
the relation of the Monroe Doctrine
to European nations, Professor
Brown said that “The bloc of Latin
American nations represented in the
League of Nations is so strong that
the practice of the European na
tions has been to bid for its vote
and to draw these countries of the
new world more more into the
diplomatic game of Europe. Two
years in succession the great pow
ers have seen fit to favor the choice
of representatives from this hemi
sphere to preside over the assembly
of the league. And the suggestion
has been seriously made that a spe
cial bureau of the league should be
organized to deal with Pan-Ameri
cam affairs.
‘ The spectacle of a Europe still
under the sway of the vicious prin
ciple of ‘balance of power’ endeavor
ing to intrude on the affairs of the
American continents is one that
‘ should awaken deep regret and re
sentment.”
