WASHINGTON, April IS. Reports
published in this country to the effect
lhat the Japanese diet had been pro-)
rtgued last month by Premier Hani
to prevent a discussion of "a diplo

the published story King George of
Iingland, in private conversation with
I Marquis Saionji and Baron Makino,
the two Japanese delegates at the
peace conference, was said to hpw re
ferred to President Wilson as "an of
ficious busybody who" wanted to meas
ure the whole world with his republi-
J ctii footrule and alter everything 'hat
ili.l not square with the constitution of
tin United States." King George was
I'orlher quoted as expressing reret
thai through American objection at
Versailles, the Japanese claim for rac

NEW YORK, April 18. Dr. James
Markoe, a well known surgeon, was
shot and killed ,today while taking up
ihe offering at the morning service In
ihe fashionable St. George Protestant'
Episcopal church, Fifteenth street and
Siuyvesant Place, in the old aristocra
tic district of New York.
His assaila.nl was captured" after a!
short chase by a group. of parishion-
ei? headed by William Fellowes Mor-1
f,an, president of the Merchants' asso-1
cinlion of New York; Dr.- G. T. Brewer;
and J. Morgan Jones. At the East'
Twenty-second street police station I
the prisoner gave his name first as
Thomas W. Shelley and later as Tho
mas W. Simpkin. The police said he I

Friend of J. P. Morgan,
j Dr. Markoe, a wealthy vestryman of
i the church, was a friend and personal
I physician to J. P. Morgan, also a par
ishioner there. He was fifty-six ytara
jo.id.
I 'Ihe church was crowded with par-
irhioners, many of them reyresor ta-J
thes of the wealthiest families in New i
York, when the shooting took piace. !
I Dr. Markoe was walking down the left
; aisle, taking up the collection while
the choir was singing an anthem.
Shelley, who was seated next to the
aisle, whipped out a revolver and firod
at tho physician. The bullet struck
him over the left eye and he collapsed
in the aisle.
I Several women screamed and men
1 rushed from their seats. Shelley, with
j tilt revolver in his hand, leaped over
I the body of the physician and started
J to run out of the church. The choir,
'led, by Charles Safford, continued sing
ing in an effort to quiet Ihe congrega
tion. Insane Man Continues Shooting.
Shelley continued shooting. His sec-
jond shot, directed at members of the
congregation who were pursuing him,
went wild. John C. Tiedeman, the
S'rxton, dropped to the floor in time to
escape the third bullet, which grazed
J the cheek of J. Morgan Jones.
Shelley then ran lroni the church
into Stuyvesant square. Dr. Brewer
was the first man to reach him. He
I grabbed the man's arm but Shelley j
i'jauaged tovriggle himself loose long:
! enough to fire another shot which I
grazed Dr. Brewer's thigh. Several
other members of the congregation
threw Shelley to the ground and were)
holding him down when i policeman !
arrived, handcuffed, 'the prisoner and.
took him to the police station.
Dr. Markoe Rushed to Hospital.
Meanwhilo Dr. Markoe had been car
ried out of the church and placed in an
automobile. As he was being lifted
into the car he regained consciousness
long enough to say, "I will be all right,"
and then collapsed. Ho was rushed
ii the Lying-in hospital at Eighteenth j
6treet and Second avenue, but was
dead when taken into that institution, j
In the church at the time were Geo.
W. Wickersham, former United States (
attorney general; Herbert L. Satter-
i-lee, brother-in-law of J. P. Morgan,
and Mrs. Satterlce, and many oher
prominent persons. Mr. Morgan, wh
; is a member of the church and whose
fulher was a vestryman there, was not
present when the shootjng occurred.
Admits Shooting Surgeon.
Shelley freely admitted that he had :
(siot Dr. Markoe, according to the po
lice. "There are a lot more who are
going to get it, loo," he is reported to
huVe said when questioned by police
detectives.

Rlreet, Sauk City, Wis: There were
also several business cards reading,
"Thomas W. Simpkin." and in the low
er corner "Representing Swift Coi.ntv

Banner."
A lc.ter addressed to him and f.-und
in the suitcase, had the address of IIS
Peabody street, Duluth, Minn. The po
lice believe it was from hfs wife.
The prisoner told detectives he had
bc-en g;en the literature by a man
named "Miller" whose first name he
couldn't remember,
"My memory, is very bad," he saiu.
Denies Being I. W. W.
"Are you an I. W. W.?" he was asked.
r1
."No." he replied. "I am against ;
1. W. W. because they don'f give, crt dit
to the brains of the country "
He said one of the things he was
certain about was that he had never
jBeen Dr. Markoe before. He told a
Humbling story oi his movoments cov
I er'ng the seven years he has been in
"Canada and the United States. He j
came to America from London, Eng
land, where he was born. I
I 'He enlisted in the Canadian arniyj
f.nd was about to sail overseas, ho
said, when he learned his wife hao be
come a mother. He asked for a tians-j
for to an organization stationed near
his wife's home, but was refused as
being "too valuable a man,'1 he said.
"I figured,". he explained, "that if f
was loo good a man for tiie outfit to i
lose, I was too good for my wife to i
lese. 1 jumped tne outfit and entered j
tho United States and later brought
my wife and children over."
After relating his escape from the in
sane asylum at Fergus Falls, Minn.,
he said:
"They say there is a physlca'l cause
fcr every mental reaction. I was tu
bercular and they cured me. lhcn I
got a cancer and I was operated on
for that. So I guess those are the j
causes." j
"The nreach.or in his sermon at the,
church," he continued, "told them to
be good to strangers, but no one spoke
to me and I resented it."
Rev. Dr. Karl Reiland, rector of SL
George's, in part of his sermon had
urged the wealthy congregation to be
lriond strangers and show Christian
courtesy.
"We know very little of how lonely
or oppressed some one sitting beside
us may be, and a kind. word mlgh car
ry cheer," he had said. The clergyman
was prostrated after the tragpdy
