All set to enter the ring Tiny members of society had their innings at Warrenton, Va., Thursday and Friday, when the annual Warrenton pony show was held. The youngsters showed many an older member of prominent families the proper MAROONED RUSSIAN AVIATOR FLYING BACK TO THE KRASSIN (Continued from First Page.) the Italia, survivors and who themselves were rescued yesterday by Swedish and Finnish planes. By International News Service MOSCOW, July 14.—Plowing its way southward through the ice floes with seven, rescued survivors of the Italia tragedy aboard, the Soviet ice-breaker Krasinski today headed for Cape Flatten, north east land, where the Russian aviator Chuchnovsky and his four companions are stranded. Chuchnovsky was the flier who sighted Captains Mariano and Zappi, two of the trio of General Nobile’s men who left the dirigible’s commander to trek across the ice for aid and then were Lost six weeks. After sighting them, he was forced down by fog. The landing gear of his plane was damaged in coming down; All Will Recover A radio message received from the Krassin’s physician today stated that Mariano was in a feverish condition because of long exposure. Both his legs were frozen when he was taken aboard the icebreaker. His companion, Captain Zappi, is in a good condition, the doctor’s message stated, as are four of the five members of the red tent group who were also saved by the Krasin. Ceccioni, the fifth of the party, is progressing as well as can be expected considering that he is suffering from a seriously fractured leg. The doctor stated that he believed all the men would recover. No word had been received from the Krasin early today to indicate that there was any credence in the reports circulated that the icebreaker had also located and rescued the six members of the Italia crew who were carried aloft with the ship’s gas bag when it crashed on the morning of May 25. The fate of Dr. Finn Malmgren, the Swedish explorer, who led Mariano and Zappi across the ice, is still a mystery. Latest reports from the Krasin state that his body was not taken aboard as was first reported by the Soviet relief committee. Reports at Variance Professor Samoyolovich has personally radioed that Malmgren’s body was not taken aboard the Krasin. By radio, Chuchnovsky yesterday reiterated that he had seen two men upright waving at him and a third lying on the ice, apparently lifeless, according to Russian correspondents aboard the Krasin. “Mariano and Zappi say they left Malmgren alive at Brock Island when he became too weak to continue but insisted that they trudge on.” After picking up Chuchnovsky, the Krasin and the flier will co-operate on An air-sea seach for the missing six men in the Alessandri party and Captain Amundsen’s party. By Interactional News Service LONDON, July 14. —Rescued from almost certain death, Captain Sora, the Italian Alpinist who led a dog sled expedition to search for survivors of the ill-fated Italia polar expedition, and his Dutch companion, Van Dongen, were safely at Kings Bay, Spitsbergen, today after harrowing experiences in the Arctic waste lands, an Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Copenhagen stated. The two men were rescued by the Swedish plane Upland and the Finnish plane Turko, the Copenhagen dispatch added. They had been previously sighted by the Soviet icebreaker Krassin while that ship was in route to the rescue of the five men in the “red tent” group. Both at Kings Bay The Krassin radioed the position on Foyne Island where the men were sighted. The planes, manned by officers of the relief group, commanded by the Swedish aviator Tornberg, were to the island, picked up Sora and his companion, and took them to Kings Bay. Both men were in a deplorable physical condition. They were ragged, dirty and starving, but overjoyed at their rescue. Since sighting the Krassin, they had known rescue was close at hand, and had been scanning the air and icy sea for signs of rescue craft. Vanning Left Behind The men told their rescuers that Varming, the Danish engineer, who originally was the third member of their party, was at Cape Brown, on the coast of North East Land. He had fallen ill before they started across the ice to search for the Noble encampment near Foyne. Island, and had been left behind. It was reported that the steamer Braganza was near Cape Brown and would pick up Varming. After leaving North East Land, the two men found themselves caught on a drifting floe. For 30 days they were without food. Finally, they had to kill some of their dogs and eat them. By International News Service BERLIN, July 14.—Persistent but unconfirmed reports from Moscow told of the rescue of the six missing members of the Italia’s crew who were carried aloft with the dirigible’s gas bag when the ship crashed on the morning of May 25. According to the reports, which were circulated by a Soviet news agency, the men were rescued by the ice-breaker Krassin which now has seven survivors of the Italia’s crew aboard, alive and safe. Think Amundsen Safe Some officials of the Soviet relief committee are said to give credence to these reports and in addition are reported to hold the belief that Capt. Ronald Amundsen, and several members of his crew, are with the six members of the Italia’s crew.

Battleship May Return Carranza (Continued from First Page.) and a reply is now being awaited. The proffer of the Florida is about the greatest honor and recognition this Government can be bestowed upon the dead flyer, who came to the United States as an “ambassador of good will.” It is an honor such as is usually reserved only for diplomats of high rank. President Coolidge has sent from his summer home in Wisconsin a personal message of condolence to the president of Mexico over Cerranza’s death, and Secretary of State Kellogg has telephoned to Ambassador Morrow at Mexico City, to formally convey to the Mexican foreign office the sympathy and condolences of the State Department over the tragic ending of the good will flight. The Florida is now at Narragansett Bay. She has been carrying the Naval cadets on their mid-summer training cruise. The death of Captain Carranza brought many expressions of sorrow from many quarters of the Capital. Official and diplomatic circles, officers of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps, as well as those directly interested in aviation, gave unstinted praise to Captain Carranza’s courage and ability as an airman. Secretary of War Davis today sent the following cablegram to the secretary of war and marine, Mexico City: “The deepest sympathy of the Army of the United States is extended to the Mexican army on the sad fate of its intrepid airman, Capt. Emilio Carranza. His daring and skill have been an inspiration to all peoples.” He joins that group of illustrious men who have sacrificed their lives for the development of the science of aviation. VIRGINIA SACK IS SOLVED (Continued from First Page.) unfolded a tale of horror, going into detail of a confession made by Henry Grimes, who was drowned in July, 1927, near the spot where the lad’s body was found. According to the story told by the brother of the lad’s killer, Henry was driving, through the town and ran the Baker boy down. Picking the lad up, the driver of the death car is said to have become alarmed and, instead of taking Albert to a hospital or to his home, drove to the woods near the Grimes farm. Albert, according to the man, died shortly after being knocked from the bicycle. Henry Grimes, according to the brother, became alarmed and left the body in the woods near the farmhouse. Later that night, the confession states, Henry Grimes buried the small body. Abram told police that his brother related the entire story to him about six weeks after the lad was killed. It was just two months after finding of the boy’s body that the two Grimes brothers were working on a bridge over the river, Abram related. Falls in Water Henry fell in the water, he said, and he went to his rescue but the man refused aid and was drowned. Abram declared that he was positive that his brother, overcome by remorse, drowned rather than live and face possible discovery as the accidental slayer of Albert Baker. Police at Fredericksburg are still working on the case as a result of the incident. Number of points have not been cleared up to their satisfaction, they state. At the time of the disappearance of the lad, witnesses reported that a car bearing three men was seen in the vicinity a short time before the boy disappeared. It is the identity of the two men, in the competition. The center picture shows Miss Eugenia B. Snyder, of Richmond, Va., on "Miss Woodford." Miss Snyder was a winner of a cup and blue ribbon in the pony class for children under 14 years. The picture at the show was shown by Henry Grimes, who told a story in "jerks and starts" and one that is not entirely clear as to all details of the death of the child. Grimes was permitted to return to his home after cross examination last night but will be questioned again today, police say. Abram Grimes, in a written statement to authorities of Spotteylvania county, said: "Before the drowning and about three weeks after the Baker boy had disappeared, my brother, Henry Willis Grimes, had a talk with me. He seemed to be dreadfully worried about something; did not act in his natural way. Commented on Moodiness "He would hang his head down, often with his face resting in his hands. Some of us at home commented on the unnatural way in which he acted. "I asked him one evening after he came from his work at the garden at Brompton, while he was working on his automobile at home, what was the matter. He replied that he had some trouble 'down town.' I asked him what it was." was. "He said, 'Oh, nothing.' I told him to come off with that kind of stuff and he said, 'I struck a boy.' I asked him if he killed him. He said, 'I broke him up pretty hard.' I said, 'What did you do? Why didn't you take him to the hospital?' I asked him what he did with him. He replied, 'I carried him away and put him in some bushes the night after I struck him.' He did not tell me the whereabouts of the bushes. I said to him, 'I suppose you put him in the river, as was stated in the newspapers.' Then he said, 'No — I didn't put him in the river.' Later on, possible a week, I was again talking to him about the boy he ran over and he said, 'I got a sack, or some sacks (I can't recall which), and some stones and weighted him down and put him in the river.' Just before he said this I told him I suppose he had put the body in the river and he said he had. I then said to him, 'I didn't know a body would sink.' and then he told me about putting it in a sack weighted down with stones. Said He Might Go Away About a week before my brother drowned." He told me he might go away and if he did I could have his car and his job. “My brother, Willis Grimes, (we all called him Billy) would get off from his work about 5 o’clock. He had a Ford roaster. I did not know he had been down town the evening the Baker boy disappeared, until he had the talk with me about three weeks afterward. “In talking about his striking the boy, I said to him ‘I suppose it was the Baker boy?’ He said, ‘It might have been.’ “He had away of avoiding answering a question in a direct manner. “Mr. Jackson Sullivan, who worked at Brompton, told me Billy acted in a queer manner. That he would work in the garden in a fast manner and look abroad, I drop his hoe, leave the work, go out to the road and look around in a mysterious way and then suddenly go back to his work and then do the same thing again in a short while. “Sister Had Heard It “After my brother was drowned, I can’t say just how long, one of my sisters told me she had heard that Billy was the one who had killed the Baker boy. “This is all I know about it. If I knew more I would gladly tell you. This statement is voluntarily made by me.

York legislature. Smith charged that White got all his information from the Reverend Miller. "White has brains and he ought to know better than to take any information from an admitted liar," the governor fairly shouted at the reporters. Pulling a sheet from his pocket on which he had jotted down the charges made against him by White, the governor said: "White got this stuff from Miller and Miller is nothing but a parasite living on the people of New York by sending out this false information. "Miller's recent appearance before the United States Senate investigating committee showed that he is an admitted liar and it ought to give the people an idea of the words. The Governor paused for a moment as if searching his mind for words with which to describe Dr. Miller, then he added: "Miller calls himself a reverend but he is revered for nothing," "Then Miller didn't get the facts straight on your legislative record?" the Governor was asked. "Absolutely no," he declared. Turning to the notes, he had on the sheet of paper, the Governor continued. "Let's take the worst thing he and White said about me. They said I voted four times against a bill that would have stopped gambling and prostitution in the saloons. That is not true because there never was a law on the statute books which permitted such things, consequently there never was a bill offered in the legislature to repeal any such law." Refutes Saloon Charges “Then they say I voted for a bill to permit the saloons to keep open on Sunday. As long as I was around the legislature, I never remember such a bill and I am sure there never was any.” Referring to the notes on the paper, the Governor continued, “Then they say I voted for a bill to permit saloons to be near schools. The court of appeals handed down a decision holding that where a hotel or saloon had established itself before a church or school was built, within 20 feet of it, the license could not be renewed. The effect of that decision would have been to close the bars in many of the big hotels in New York City and the legislature simply corrected this. The Governor said he had never heard of a bill referred to by White as relating to the bribing of labor unions. “It's simply some more of Miller’s trash” he said. The Governor started off in another bitter attack on Dr. Miller. “Miller started to attack me when I first ran for Governor and as a result I have been getting more votes every time I ran,” the Governor said, and for the first time during the interview a smile lighted up his face. Asked if he didn’t feel that the fact that White had broadcast the charges would have some influence on the voters, the Governor replied: “I should say not. White has brains and he ought to know better than to take this stuff from Miller." The Governor then described Miller for a second time as an “admitted liar.” “Didn’t Miller go before the United States Senate investigating committee and admit he didn’t tell the truth and doesn't that make him an admitted liar?” the Governor asked. Continuing to pace the room the Governor turned suddenly on the reporters and fairly shouted: “Why, Miller is nothing but an ideal professional faker.” “Outside of that he is right, shows, left to right, Mary P.

ABOARD THE CITTA DI MILANO, VIBGO BAY, July 14. —(By wireless). —Our great joy at the rescue of my valiant comrades is marred by the tragic news that Dr. Finn Malmgren, my dear friend and invaluable co-operator, died a month ago. Teddy's Favorite DANIEL S. SICKLES WHO HAS SPORTED the title of Captain ever since his fourth birthday as a result of a gift by the late President Theodore Roosevelt, is shown here as he arrived in New York from France. Captain Sickles, a grandson of Gen. Daniel Sickles, of Civil War fame, is a Paris banker. “If there is anything left he can have it,” the Governor replied, and for the second time during the interview he smiled. Asked about his campaign plans and if a southern headquarters would be established, the Governor said. Raskob’s Job “Don’t ask me anything about my campaign plans. You will never hear anything from me about such plans. I am not going to run the campaign. That is Mr. Raskob’s job and I am going to let him do it. I don’t believe in running the car when you have a good chauffeur.” Upon his return to the legislative ansion from New York, the governor announced his plans for the immediate future were very indefinite kind of a man he is.” THE HELD OFFICE SUES JACKSON, Miss., July 14.—E. L. Patton, colored Republican leader, was arrested today on six indictments returned by the Federal grand jury at Biloxi, Miss., which is investigating the alleged sale of public offices. J. C. Tannyhill, white Republican of Sumatra, Miss., a former deputy United States marshal, also was arrested a warrant. Patton belongs to the faction headed by Perry Howard, colored Republican committeeman of Mississippi, and assistant United States Attorney General. The view I expressed quite recently that the Malmgren party must have remained all the time at a short distance from our red tent camp has been confirmed by events of the last 24 hours. This increases my hope that the remaining party of seven men who fell with the ill-fated airship also may be found by the searchers spreading fanwise 20 to 30 kilometers east of the red tent camp. Asked to Be Left The preliminary report of Major Zappi says that Dr. Malmgren was suddenly seized June 14 with frostbite in his feet, followed by rapid loss of strength. Major Zappi says: “He lay where he fell, saying that he knew his hour had struck, and imploring us to leave him to his fate. We did all we could for him, but his strength ebbed away very fast. “He died like a hero. Almost with his last words he urged us to speed on and seek help for General Nobile and the rest of the stranded men.” The world is poorer for the loss of such a man. The death of this worthy son of Sweden will ever be called by us as an inspiring example of the heroism which can be claimed by any nation. Major Zappi adds in his report that his own physical condition is fairly good, while Major Mariano, although much weakened, does not appear to be in any danger. This is confirmed by the report of the physician aboard the Krassin. Both men went without food for the last 12 days, having lost part of their supplies during a blinding snowstorm at the beginning of June. Major Zappi says also that they had been listening for 20 hours to the distant roar of the assassin's airplanes without seeing it. They had given up hope and were wandering aimlessly awaiting death when the airplane suddenly appeared above them. They seized the bank at the landing and waved it frantically, it was the other blanner that the airman to believe that a friend was lying down near the other two. List Farewells Majors Zappi and Mariano have taken on board the Krassin a number of messages written by themselves and by all of us before their departure from the red tent camp. Farewells have been stained by our last farewells to our families. The incident at the Red Tent camp, where the dead were found, was a stark reminder of the dangers of the Red Tent camp.
