REESE IS WITCHED, j Kfll IHi! r Con tinned from First Page] an effort to end her life or that she fell overboard. The statements made yesterday by persons who knew Miss Winter, tend ing to prove a strong motive for sui cide, are not deterring State's Attorney Green and Sheriff Potee of Anne Arundel county in this week. They in timated that there may be important developments during the day. Mr. Green said he did not believe Miss Winter committed suicide, but he would not say what he believed caused her death. D. Meredith Reese, Jr., Miss Win ter's intimate friend and associate, who was with her on the night of her disappearance, has been placed under police surveillance. Makes Another Statement Following the publication of police expressions that he had withheld some of the circumstances surrounding the young woman's movements on the night of her disappearance, Reese has made another statement, which he de clared was an attempt to relate all he knows of the case. He said there was a possible excuse for Miss Winter lining jealous of him a year ago, but not within the last year. Repeating his previous stories of their movements on the night, he said that he met the young woman at a pier of a Curtis Bay resort; that they went in his motorboat straight up Curtis creek to another resort, where they stayed about twenty minutes, and then went straight back to their start ing point. "I put Ella ashore at the float,'' he said, "and I remember her waving and calling 'good-by' several times as I leaned over in the launch to start the motor. "That was the last I saw of her. She had not gone to the upper wharf, as I remember, but was still on the float as I drew away. I don't know whether she jumped overboard or fell over board. I don't know how she got In the water."

"My visit to England is purely a social and scientific one. I have come here to lecture before the Royal Geo graphical Society on the subject of my discoveries and adventures in Bra zil and also to meet friends. I will not discuss politics—either American, English or French." This was the reply of Colonel Roose velt to a bombardment of questions from a score of newspapermen for whom he held an informal reception at Lieutenant Colonel Lee's countrv home. All Subjects Taken Up The Colonel was questioned on every possible subject from the con troversy aroused in connection with his discovery of a river in Brazil to the passage by the American Senate of the Panama tolls exemption repeal bill and the prospects of his candidacy for the governorship of New York' State. His reply in each instance was "I have nothing to say" or "no, you may not expect a statement from me" which was his answer as to whether he was going to issue a statement on the subject of the governorship. One of the Colonel's first visitors was Dr. John Scott Keltie, secretary of the Royal Geographical Society, who brought with him a number of maps for the use of the Colonel in his lecture. It is possible that Colonel .Roose velt may see King George before his departure from England. His Ma jesty is spending a week at Windsor Castle but no arrangements have been made for a meeting.

Baldwin is out with a plea to the public to make the Fourth of July "a day If patriotic rejoicing in stead of a day of apprehension" be cause of danger of fires. Mr. Baldwin in making his plea for a safe and sane Fourth throughout the State re marks that noise is not patriotism and harks back to the early days when the celebration of Independence Day consisted of the unfurling of the flag with salutes of guns and church bells, patriotic songs and speeches and din ners. The fire cracker is declared by the State marshal to have become "a national -nuisance" and recommends that fire works be handled on the community plan and under direction of competent persons. The co-opera tion of fire chiefs and chiefs of police throughout the State is asked by Mr. Baldwin in making the day safe and sane. Bass Season Soon.

With nearly 150 men in i full uniform, a band and a company's full equipment of motor * chemical truck and a twenty-five-foot ladder truck in line, the Highspire "laddies" feel that they will compare very favor ably with any of the companies from the larger towns and cities. It is the pride of the Highspire fire fighters that they have, so to speak, "put one over" on Harrisburg and some other cities by having a motor driven apparatus. The Highspire com pany but recently purchased its fine motor chemical truck and established the record of having the first motor driven fire-fighting apparatus in Dau phin county. This new truck replaced the hand-drawn chemical truck pur chased several years ago and was se cured at a cost of $l,lOO for the truck alone. Company Five Years Old It is but a little over five years since the Citizens' Company has been or ganized. During this short time the } company has built its present two j story brick home at Paxton and Broad ; streets. This line building is finished I in all modern equipments, with the en i tire lower floor reserved for housing the apparatus and the second floor furnished as a parlor and reading room for the members. The preset membership Is 150 men, including many of the town's most prominent citizens. The company does not allowany intoxicating liquors In its "home," a rule that has called forth the hearty commendation from the horough's ministers. That the company is efficient is shown from the fact that no fires in recent years have been allowed to reach serious propor [ tions and the property loss through fire has been kept down to almost nothing. The present officers of the company are: President, Homer Etter; vice president. Robert Rrashears; secretary, Austin Heicher; financial secretary, Uriah Brown; treasurer. Harry Hoke; trustees, William H. Smith, Eugene Orris and John Weaver; five chief, Sam uel Haehnlen; first assistant, Harry Hoke; second assistant, Sylvester Hahn; directors, John Romgardner, Elmer Kline, Harry Sweitzer, Austin Heicher, Robert Sanson and Clarence Shaffner.
