THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1906. JACK ES T Sue for Damages When Ex cluded From Amuse ment Places. GOVERNMENT BACKS THEM bailors .Ordered Off Dancing Floor at Cleveland Keluse, to Compro mise Case at Newport Has Admiral's Support. CLJ3VELiAND, O., Sept. 20. Suits for Sauu damages were filed today against the Humphrey company, proprietors of Eu clid beach, by - two sailors. Rex ford Stouffer and John G. Sontheimer, of the United States training ship Wolverine, who were ordered from the dancing floor last week because they did not wear white shirts or collars with their uniforms. Captain Alfred Aloe, who has charge of the Government recruiting service, re turned today after a IPiiort visit out of the city and at once took up the Euclid beach affair. Tonight he made a full report te the department at Washington. The affair has created much discussion, and efforts were made in the last day or two to compromise it. "It Is all very well to talk about com. promising measures," said Captain Aloe, "but we purpose to take such action as will put a stop to this disrespect for the United States uniform. Among our en listed men, gentlemen from all walks of life, of education and refinement, are to he found. As long as they behave as gentlemen we propose to have them treated as such. People all over the country are Interested in this case and are watching Its development." ANOTHER SUIT AT NEWPORT Admiral Thomas Backs Sailor, With Department Behind Him. NEWPORT. R. I., Sept. 20. Chief Yeo. man F. J. Buenxel, stationed at the naval training station here, brought suit against the Newport Amusement Company on ac count of having been refused admission to adancehall while In uniform. Buen rel places his damages at J500. He al leges that on September 8 the sailor was "then and there debarred from the full and equal enjoyment and privileges of a licensed place of amusement and wrongfully discriminated against and de nied admission by the defendant, solely on account of being In the uniform of the United States Navy." It was stated tonight that Rear-Ad-mlral Charles K. Thomas, commandant at the naval training station, Is paying half of the expenses of Buenzel's suit, and it is understood that the Navy De partment is behind the action. The writ is returnable October 2 In the First Dis trict Court for Newport County. STARVES IN LOCKED HOUSE FOUR-YEAR-OLD BOY FOUND BESIDE DEAD WOMAN. Almost Dead After Four Days' Hun ger, Little John Boyle Is Res cued Just in Time. NEW YORK, Sept. 20. (Special.) Gnawing at crusts and withstanding privations that an adult might have succumbed to, a 4-year-old boy was discovered today after spending four and possibly live days in a locked room with his lifeless fostermother. The body of the mother was fast be coming decomposed and the child, re duced almost to a skeleton, was In the last stages of starvation. An unusual ly hardy constitution stood the baby in good stead and the physicians say It will recover. The discovery was made In a rear room on the third floor at 4204 Third avenue, Brooklyn. The dead woman was Mrs. Catherine Dunham, a hard working wi low, 60 years old. The child was John Boyle, whom Mrs. Dunham took from the Guardian Angels Home at Bay Ridge several months ago and proposed to rear. She told her neigh bors that she intended the boy to be a prii.st. Mrs. Dunham was lust seen alive Sunday morning, when .she and young John returned from church, the young ster toddling sturdily at her side. The fact that Mrs. Dunham was not seen again did not arouse the curiosity of the neighbors because she had been telling them of a proposed visit to friends. Her sister called this after noon and, receiving no response to her raps on the door, called a policeman, who forced the lock. Mfs. Dunham had evidently been lighting the fire when seized with heart fniilDre. She had fallen to the floor and in this position - was found. The baby wns lying near Mrs. Dun ham's body, moaning feebly. Evidently he had cried most of the time, for his voice was all but gone. About the room was plenty of evidence of John Boyle's Rtruggie for life. Lower shelves of the cupboard were polished where again nd again he had searched for food during his long imprisonment. Board like crusts of bread were gnawed and looked as If the youngster had sucked and chewed at them In his hunger. The policeman sent the baby to the hospi tal. where the doctors gave him soma specially prepared milk and arranged h diet compatible with his extreme wenkness. They said he would pull through, although a few hours more of his terrible lmnrisonment and hunger would have killed him. LOST WITH SIX OF CREW Schooner Twilight Capsizes in Storm on Atlantic.
