DECKER STORY
TO BE PROBED
BY COMMITTEE
Statement That His Office
, Prevented Spain Joining
Huns Is New Wrinkle
tYuwlilngton, Dee. 29. Statements
made by Rear Admiral Decker, former
naval attache at Madrid to the effect
that he and his assistants were in
strumental in preventing Spain from
joining the central powers during the
enemy offensive of March, 1918, and
that his work was hampered by Hie
American Ambassador, probably will
lie investigated during the Congres
sional investigation of the award of
naval 'decorations, according to Rep
resentative lnfliln. Republican, Mas
sachusetts, of the House Naval Com
mittee.
Hear Admiral Decker's statements
were contained in a letter to Secre
tary Daniels, made public Saturday
setting forth the reasons which
prompted him to decline the navy
cross for which he was recently rec
ommended by Secretary Daniels.
V o aril *lmuJcqiiii4c'
"In my opinion," the letter said,
"this award is entirely inadequate to
the services that were performed by
the office of the naval attache and
those who worked with me. The effect
of this work was to keep Spain from
entering the war against us, the time
of the enemy March offensive of J9IS,
also a reduction of the submarine ac
tivities off the coast of Spain.
"If nty estimate is correct, my ser
vices and the services of those who
worked with nte, in spite of the op
position-of the ambassador, ;s cer
tainly greater than the work done
by any single battleship in the war
or by any official stationed on shore
duty in an administrative, capacity."
The letter contains the first intima-
friction among American dip
lomatic and naval officials at Madrid
during the war.
Mr. Lufkin said that members of
the Committee on Naval Affairs from
the House and Senate with whom he
had discussed Rear Admiral Deck
el's letter had expressed themselves
as in full agreement with his opinion
that the statements deserved con
gressional investigation.

[Continued from First Page.]
j aocordlng to tt statement at the
I Balnea home no one know of his al-
I leered infatuation with Miss Keeney.
i Tile Vermilyos have been married
I since 1895. It was said that Ver-
I milye was married once before.
Dr. Vermilye, who failed to ap
: pear Christmas day lo marry Miss
Keeney, at Monsen, Mass., and is
j now a patient in the Cumberland
Street Hospital, in New York, re
fused to make any comment when
informed that his wife had been
located In Harrisburg.
RefujJes to Talk
Information that Dr. Vermilye had
a wife with whom he had been liv
ing up to the time the physician
gave up private practice to take a
position with the United States
Shipping Board in the South, was
given by Mrs. P. E. Zlndeli, of
Brooklyn, wife of a son or Mrs. Ver
milye by a 'previous marriage.
Miss Keeney, who has also been
a patient in the hospital since Sat
urday night, when she fainted and
became hysterical because Dr. Ver
milye refused to see her or explain
his failure to appear for the wed
ding, left the institution yesterday.
She and her father again attempted
to interview Dr. Vermilye before
leaving the hospital but ho refused
to see them.
When hospital officials, who say
the physician is there to undergo
a slight operation, informed news
papermen that he would see no one
except relatives, they sent Dr. Ver
milye the'following note:
"Your wife, said to be located in
Harrisburg, has made charges which
perhaps you would be glad to clear
up. Will you please make a defi
nite statement and eleur up the
whole matter?"
Dr. Vermilye's reply, which was
written on the back of the note,
said, "I have nothing to say."
