E. HAAS PREDICTS (Continued from Page One.) entirely unfamiliar with the procedure of the office. He was postmaster in the fourth-class office in Carroll county from 1888 to 1802. He was also e mail carrier in Terre Haute. He has made special study of postal laws and lias thoroughly familiarized himself with them. Most of his life he has been connected with the shoe business. When lie came to Richmond seventeen years aso he was a salesman for a shoe company, and up to last September liad been connected witha rubber company for ten years. Mr. Beck is a prominent Democrat, and from 1012 to the time of his resignation a short time ago, was chairman of the Sixth District Democratic organization. He was county chairman from Hi'i to 1012. He was also prominent in the Jefferson club, which gave tip headquarters about a year ago. Mr. Beck will not attempt to make any changes in the office until he has become thoroughly familiar with the working order. I'nder civil service rules he is powerless to make any dis- j missals, but can make shifts of positions. The incoming postmaster was entitled to assume his duties June 1, but established precedent was maintained, end the outgoing official was permitted to complete his term of office. Post masters in Richmond for the last twenty-four years have taken office July 1, and have been appointed on June 1. DOG TAX OR FINE, SAYS PROSECUTOR Reller Serves Notice to Owners Letting License Run Delinquent. Dog owners who have failed to pay lax on their pets may pay from four to pleven times the tax in a fine unless they remit to the township trustee before July 1. This edict was handed down to the public dog owners by the prosecuting attorney today. There is about $1,300 outstanding in delinquent dog tax in Wayne townhip, most of which is in the city of Itichmond. Contrary to the practice of former years, the dog owners are not paying their tax at the township trustees office in the court house. The number of dogs on which tax is delinquent in Richmond is about 80u while there are about iro in the townehip. From the crematory reports for the last few months, probably about half of these have given their lives to Bave the amount of tax on them and nbout half of the remainder have been denied homes and ownership. Cuba's sugar crop for the present season is estimated at 2,500,000 tons.

PENCE PLANT BURNS

NEW PARIS, O., June 22. The Hollinger Fence Co., Greenville, Ohio, surfered great damage Sunday afternoon by a fire which broke out in the third story. The building is of brick with a slate roof and was a hard place to fight fire. Greenville's ne,v auto fire truck and the laddies did fine work and kept the blaze from spreading. The factory had not been in operation lor three weeks and it is thought that a spark from a passing I). & W. engine started the blaze since the building is old and the floors are oil-soaked. The amount of the loss is not known but is considerable. Since qpenville"s water supply is short on account of so little rain, much apprehension was felt when the fire alarm was sounded.

Miss Ella Winter. D. Meredith Reese, Jr., and Reese's Boathouse, Near Where the Girl's Body Was Found. The belief that Miss Ella Winters, whose body was found near the boathouse of her employer, D. Meredith Reese, Jr.. of Baltimore, was paisoned and did not drown is. being generally expressed in Baltimore. Miss Winters was verv popular and had many admirers besides Reese. Reese is a member of a prominent Baltimore family, and had Miss Reese as his guest on his househoat and took her motorboat riding a few hours before she was found dead. With the idea that the girl might have been the victim of a jealous rival of Reese, all who paid attentions to the girl are being questioned. This course was adop'ed after the announcement that she had not been drowned, but was alive when she came in contact with the waters of Curtis bay. All of the facts in connection with the mystery have not been heard, according to State's Attorney Nicholas H. Green.

Kennedy STREET

ATTACKS ON CITIZENS JAR SABBATH . QUIET OF RICHMOND

Residents of North Tenth and North Eleventh streets, near E street were greatly excited Saturday night by a fusillade of revolver shots. A few belated pedestrians on North Tenth street, hugged close in the shadows of sheltering buildings, and a few bold householders, disturbed in their sleep, who stuck timid heads out of upstairs windows, saw one man hotly pursuing another, firing every few paces, which produced marvelous speed on the part of the pursued and resulted in his escape. The quarry in this exciting chase was an unknown man who had insulted women near the underwear factory in a most depraved manner. The sbreani of one woman brought Officer Menke to the scene, whereupon the man started to run. When lie failed to heed the officer's command to halt, Menke opened fire on him, not with the intention of injuring him, but to frighten him into submission. He frightened the man thoroughly but his fright impelled him to make desperate efforts to escape. Attaoks McLear. Sunday morning the police received report of an attack upon a well known

Certain Occupations Cause Cancer Growth

ATLANTIC CITY, June 22 Many occupations appear especially conducive to cancer. Frederick L. Hoffman, insurance statistician, of Newark. N. J., told the delegates to the American Academy of Medicine convention today. Statistics are incomplete, however. He said: "The classical illustration of chimney-sweeps' cancer is too well known to require further discussion," said Mr. Hoffman. "The well-known excessive incidence of cancerous growth in this occupation, however, suggests a well-established relation between the conditions under which the work is done and the exceptional liability to cancerous growths. The evidence is less conclusive regarding gardeners' cancer.but in this case also the statistical evidence seems to sustain medical observation to the effect that this occupation under certain conditions is one with definite liability towards more than normal cancer frequency. "Still more conclusive is the evidence with regard to cancer occurrence in the coal-tar and pitch industries, both in the form of cancer ulcerations of the skin and of the corneal surface of the eye. The same conclusion applies to the frequency of cancerin the patent fuel industry of England and Wales, but as yet no corres ponding evidence. has been forthcom ing regarding the same industries in the United States.

young man, living on the National road just east of the city, Harry McLear. The man who attacked McLear, son of Mr. and Mrs. George McLear, was apparently surprised in the act of attempting to break into the house. After he had knocked McLear unconscious on the front steps, he seized his purse, containing $16, and his gold watch. The thief lost the watch in the melee, but managed to get away with the money. Harry McLear returned home late Saturday night from a visit in Cambridge City. Reaching the house lie saw a light flash near the barn and heard the dog barking. He went back to investigate, but found nothing. As he came back to the front of the house and was about to step on the porch he saw a man in the shadows at the corner of the house. Fells Young Man. Harry promptly called to his father for assistance, but with one bound th" burglar hurled himself on the young man felling him with a blow to the jaw. He then tore open McLear's shirt and undershirt and pulled out his purse from the inside coat pocket. He also seized his watch, but dropped

tionship of alcoholism to cancerous growths is not established by the evidence at present available, but apparently, brewers, malters, and men in similar occupations are subject to conditions possibly inherent in the character of the work, with a distinct predisposition to cancer. "Cancer is apparently of more than normal frequency among blast furnace employes, but this conclusion requires further investigation. An important study has been made of the frequency of malignant diseases of the lungs among the miners of Schneeberg. District of Saxony, but no corresponding evidence has been forthcoming for other mining districts of the world. Agricultural workers were shown by German investigators to be especially subject to canters of the skin, which suggests a possible rela tionship between cancer occurrence in plants, animals and man. The investigations by Green regarding the relationship of coal-soot exposure to malignant diseases are suggestive of still more importance and practically useful discoveries in the future. "The principle of cancer causation laid down by Green is explained by him to also account for the higher mortality from malignant disease among furriers and skinners, seaman, tin-plate manufacturers, lead-workers. India-rubber workers, guana workers, and persons exposed to X-rays." Big Solid Oak Porch Swing, like cut, at $1.98 Corner Ninth

it in his hurry to escape. The mother and father arrived on the scene just after the burglar had fled around th side of the house. Young McLear to day was nursing a very sore jaw. Ha says his assailant was a white man; heavily built. Earlier Saturday evening, an Itat ian, Frank Lapenea. attacked a cot ored girl in Uiverdale. She screamed for help and when Reuben Whitlock colored, came to her rescue, Lapenea, pulled a revolver on him. The ItaV ian finally departed, however, without making further efforts to force his attentions on the girl. Whltlock filed

complaint and lapenea was arrested on a charge or carrying concealed weapons, to which he pled guilty this morning. He was fined $50 and costs which was paid by Joe Daloia.
