WASHISGTON, Aug. 7.-RenIyin to
day to a Senate resolution demanding
the Information, Attorney-General Mo-
Reynolds admitted and defended the
course of the Department of Justice in
conducting- investigations into certain
judges. He refused, however, to say
which Judges were subject to inquirv,
declaring: it "incompatible with the
public interest" to make the informa
tion public.
This report aroused a storm of pro
test, which Senator Borah, of Idaho,
led.
"I know this ia a very serious
charge." said he, "but I am so reliablv
informed that I make the statement
that within the last four or five years
special agents have carried on such in
vestigations with a view to influencing
Judges."
Senator Norris declared he did not
have all the Information Senator Borah
had, but that he believed his state
ments were based on fact.

'SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 7.. (Special.)
When the late Captain Andrew Cav-
ner, a manner out of this port for
many years, died at St. Luke's Hospi
tal in. February, 1913, he believed he
was leaving- his best friend, Mrs. Mary
Regan, all his wealth, consisting of his
interests in the schooners Defender,
James H. Bruce. Wowona and Ma
weema. -
The Superior Court also thousrht so
last March, when it entered a decree
of final distribution in Captain Cav
ner's estate, giving title to interests
in the ships to Mrs. Regan.
The Collector of Customs, according
to an affidavit filed by Mrs. Resran
with the court today, has annulled the
Probate Court's decree by refusing to
register Mrs. Regan as owner of the
craft, on the ground that she is an
alien.
The customs officials, when Mrs. Re
gan applies for registration of her in
terests in the vessels, discovered that
she was not a citizen of the United
States and not entitled to enrollment
as owner. Her application, therefore,
was refused .
Mrs. Regan was born in Bavaria.
A' quarter of a century ago she mar
ried an Irishman named Regan. ; Al
though he lived in the United States
for more than, two score of years, he
never became a citiaen.
Now Mrs. Regan asks the court to
set aside the decree distributing a
share in the vessels to her and return
that part of Captain Cavner's prop
erty to nis estate. ' -
This done, she proposes to sell her
interest in the estate to a citizen Of
the United States, have a new decree
making distribution to him, and then
the vessels may be enrolled as partly
owned by the purchasing citizen.

Persius, the na'val expert of the

says Germany also may fake similar

that in general the decision was dic

Birdman Who Was Close Second In
Appearance to "Buffalo Bill,"
Victim of New Machine.
LONDON, Aug. 7. While testing a
new hydro-aeroplane, Colonel F. S.
Cody, the picturesque- and famous Anglo-American
aviator, was killed today
near the Aldershot district in a fall of
between 200 and 300 feet A passen
ger named Evans, who was a civil serv
ice member in the Indian service, also
met death In the fall. Cody's sons, Leon
and Frank, witnessed the fatal acci
dent Colonel Cody came to England from
America, where he had been a cowboy
in the West. His start was slow, but
he gained recognition of the British
JVar Office by his apparent Ingenuity
and cleverness, coupled with his daring
and bravery in perfecting air craft.
His natural gifts of construction won
him an appointment from the War Of
fice, against popular prejudice, which
was relieved when Cody foreswore al
legiance to America.
The English public began to take
Cody seriously when he carried off the
$20,000 prize at the aviation met at
Salisbury Plain in August. 1912. At the
time of his death lie was testing the
machine preparatory to entering the
$25,000 air race around Scotland and
England.
Cody was said to have been able to
build any kind of an air craft., from
the simplest man-carrying kite to the
hydro-aeroplane. His workmanship 1
was held by some to have been crude,
but it was usually effective. y
The accident today is believed to
have been due to faulty construction.
The machine weighed more than a. ton I
and, after a fairly good flight, seemed
to crumple under its own weight
Cody's dress was theatric, his wide
sombrero, long hair and mustache
making him a close second in appear

Bill."
