the liver but we are not getting manufacturing enterprises to locate here through ovr own efforts Allied with Washington more closely we probably would be able to induce industries to locate here and

Complaint He Says Is Solely Against the Judgei Advocate He Has Been Exquisitely Inconsistent Some Things That Remain to Be Explained by Lieut Utleyj According to Lawyer Thomas Haviland Fails to Survive a Surgical Operation Thomas Haviland of Drummond Md died yesterday morning at the George Washington Hospital after a surgical operation Mr IJaviland was among the oldest clerks in point of service in the office of the surgoon general of the army He leaves a wife and one daughter Miss Rachel Haviland who lived with him at Drurnmond and one son John Haviland who now Is in business in YpSilanti Mich tie was born in New York city about 60 years ago serving as a volunteer In the 1nlon army throughout the civil war He was transferred at the close to the office of the surgeon general in this city in which position he remained until his death He was a member of the Masonic order and attended St Albans Episcopal Church The appeal of Attorney Davis to Ihe Secretary of the Navy in regard to procedure In the Sutton couvt of inquiry at Annapolis was promptly referred yesterday to the judge advoca general wno as promptly gave it his Immediate attention and before evening conclusions weiti prepared and forwarded for the disappointment as Is understood of Mr Davis and his clients this morning The facility with which a decision was reached confirms the intimation that it is advena to the civilian side of the case courtesy alone preventng an authorized versloil until the attorney for Mrs Sutton and Mrs Paker shall receive the official noti fication Mr Davis still wants to think over whftt his future course shall be He was not ready to announce at once whether he would retire from the case If he goes on with it however it will be with the idea of making vigorous work of it Mrs Sutton mother of the lieutenant Whose death is the subject of investigation has become most discreet in her silence and to all Inquiries last night she said that matters were wholly in the hands of Attorney Davis and that it was for him to decide what course to take Davis Disclaims Tirades Mr Davis deprecates the style in whch Interviews with him have been sent but disclaiming that he indulged in a tirade at anybody or at the court of inquiry in particular I have not a word of criticism to utter against the court said Mi Davis yesterday My complaint is solely against tie judge advocate and the most I want lo say against him is that he has been exquisitelyexquisitely inconsistent in the conduct ot the case I can find nothing in the naval regu lations providing that a civilian can an accuser of any person in the service of the department before one of it tilbunals The accusation as I understand must always come from within the department Yet in this case i is now sought to make Mrs Sutton a civilian accuser of several lieutenants and a sergeant The judge advocate says that he withheld Mrs Suttons letter which now is converted into a murder indictment until after the lieutenants had given their testimony in order to give more latitude in examining them But he springs the accusation before Lieut Utley the most important witness among them has testified Dtley Is Important The precept from the department was that if an accusation should develop In Tothe Flowersr of sWecLdelicatelrtJeriurned and full petaled compliments abounded at Grea Falls yesterday

negro as she was walking west inR street toward her home 1S2 1 street northwest yesterday morning The negro dashed down an alley and escaped The robbery was reported to1 Capt Doyle of the Eighth precinct and Policemen Garrett and Smith were detailed to investigate the case advocate made the accusation develop by withholding the letter of MrsSutton until he got ready Why did not the department announce at the outset that charges had been made by Mrs Sutton if It was Its purpose to regard her letter as such There are more things to be explained by Lieut Utley than by any other witness Yet before we reach him the bars are raised Inder the naval regulations one accused of an offense cannot be called to the stand unless he is willing to testify All that Lieut Utley need do now is to say that he does not wish to testify So when Lieut Utley United States marine corps steps ashore from the cruiser that is bringing him back from the Mediterranean he will probably rub his eyes a bit in trying to comprehend that he is accused of murder by an accuser who protests against making the accusation But while the home coming officer may smile as his fellow lieutenants did when they stood up under the judge advocates arraignment for murder there remains a possibly serious matter for Utley to meet the testimony of Private Charles Kennedy that the lieutenant hushed him up in regard to what the witness had seen of the righting that ended with Lieut buttons death1 As to Kennedys Story The attitude of the judge advocate as to the total incredibility of Kennedy Is by no means siiared by all who saw and heard the private giving his testimony at Annapolis The apparently straightforward manner of the witness and th reiidiness with which he related his story and nnswerpd nnotitlnnu rroi ion better opinion of him and his testimony than is that of Leonard Kennedys statement was that on the morning after the death of Sutton Lieut Utley had told him to keep still about what he knew of the tragedy and that in consequence he did not testify at the inquest His intimate knowledge of the events of that October night did not come to the light of day until the Sutton attorneys were informed by an anonymous letter that the marine private might prove an important witness Judge Advocate Leonard did not credit this very serious allegation against Utley sufficiently to conduct a cross examinationexamination It remains to be seen what view the members of the court will take and whether or not a recommendation will be made for an investigation of the charge the private has made against the officer The suggestion of a congressional investigation has not as yet received any serious consideration In any quarter It Is safe to predict that if Mrs Sutton joins her attorney in withdrawing from the Annapolis inauirv she will hv no butcher at the end of a hard days work His clothing was torn while a stream of blood trickled from his right hand The thumb nail on his right hand was badly injured and it is feared that it will seriously interfere with his entering the pitchers box when Washington clashes with Cleveland next week The third negro after the carriage had come to a

Collins gathered two stones and stood to one side while Hughes was punching the second negro No report of the attempted hold up was made to the police Hughes saying that he was contented with having
