FAMED FOE OF TAMMANY HALL DEAD IN N. Y. William Travers Jerome Began Reform Work in 1890. By t nifrrf prrst NEW YORK. Feb 14 —The vivid saga of Wiiliam Travers Jerome, acid-tongucd. uncompromising prosecutor of a gaudy era in New York s history, was ended by death today Mr. Jerome died yesterday ol pneumma His death revived memories of some of the greatest court trials in the history of New York jurisprudence. As district attorney of New York county he prosecuted Harry K. Thaw for the murder of Stanford White. He won a conviction against the slick “Little Abe Hummel. the perjuring divorce lawyer, and against Dick Canfieio whose political influence had defied all efforts to close the notorious gambling house that, bore his name until Mr. Jerome took a hand. Mr. Jerome’s reputation was nation-wide. Despised Tammany Hall Almost from the beginning of his career to the day of his death he despised Tammany Hall with fanatical fervor. He participated actively in the Lcxow committee's investigation in 1890 which revealed that vice, political graft and underworld rackets supplied most of Tammany’s revenues Soon after receiving his law degree Mr Jerome was appointed an assistant district attorney in 1833. when the office was under Tammany domination. He promptly fell into disfavor. Whenever word came from •above” to "go light,” Mr. Jerome prosecuted fiercely. Two years later he quit the district attorneys office, a oonfirmed reformer. He was appointed a justice of special sessions four years later by a fusion administration and was elected district attorney in 1901. He surrounded himself with a staff of assistants who later achieved fame in the law. Among them were Francis P. Garvan. Isidor J. Krescl, Frederic Kernochan and Joseph E. Corrigan. Prosecuted Harry K. Thaw He turned his attention to the suppression of gambling. He raided Canfield's gambling parlor, wrecked the place and convicted Canfield as a "common gambler." an epithet the gamester always considered unkind. The Thaw trial was his most famous case. The jury disagreed in the first trial. Thaw was acquitted ! in the second trial on his plea of j insanity. Mr. Jerome was bitter, j For six years he blocked every es- j fort by Thaw to escape legally from asylums. Mr. Jerome seemed to delight in making enemies. His bitter tongue was his weapon. Once at a dinner j of the Mayflower descendants he attacked the Pilgrims and Puritans. At a gathering of Democrats he denounced Thomas Jefferson as a i "faker.” 11l Two Weeks Mr. Jerome was 75 years old. He had been ill two weeks. Several days ago he had a premonition of death and requested a private and simple funeral. This wish will be obeyed. He is survived by his wife, who has been seriously ill for several weeks, and a son. W. C. T. U. WILL MEET Annual Institute for Educational Temperance Scheduled. Mary E.

FOURTH VICTIM IN SUICIDE PACT IS NEAR DEATH Doctors Fear Complications or Shock Will Kill Ft. Wayne Girl. By t’nitrd Prr** FT. WAYNE. Ind., Feb. 14. Physicians today feared for the life of Louise Larwill. 25, sole survivor of a strange "death agreement” in which her parents and another sis- , ter died here yesterday. Complications which may arise from inhaling gas or the shock of realization of yesterday's tragedy may make it possibie for Louise not to violate the pact she signed with the others. Her father and mother. Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Larwill, both 52, and a sister Mary, 26, are dead of selfasphyxiation accomplished in a suicide pact they entered because of grief over the death of a fifth member of their family Monday night. The four signed their solemn death pledge shortly after the death of 10-year-old Florence Larwill, the family favorite. Bodies of the three dead and the limp form of Louise, barely alive, were found in the cold, gas-filled bathroom of their home late yesterday by police who broke into the locked home after relatives had become alarmed when the Larwills failed to answer their telephone. The four had crowded chairs into the narrow bathroom, pulled loose a gas heater connection and breathed deeply of the death fumes escaping freely from a hose which dangled from the wall.

'Horseless? Senseless!” THAT’S what the small group said as they; leaned against the hitching post in front of the hotel. But there was envy in their hearts just the same when Gus and Lizzie put on their dusters and gave the town an eyeful as they bounced along. From those days when an automobile on the streets made people stop and gasp in amazement to the present when the automobile is part of everyday life, science has been constantly at work making a better and finer product. Despite the fact that the life of the average automobile has been increased since those early days, thousands of people each season trade their cars for new ones, leaving thousands of unused miles in these traded cars for others to enjoy at only a fraction of the original cost. Today unquestioned values exist in good used cars. They are offered for sale by dealers with reputations for honest value and fair dealing, appearing every day in the Want Ad columns of The Times with attractive values. If you are in the market for a used car today or if* you will be in the near future, it will pay you to patronize those automobile dealers listed in The Times today and every day.
