Provements Contemplated.
The Minneapolis Mill company has under
consideration an elaborate plan for the still
further improvement of the West side
water power, but not until next year will it
be put into execution. The details are not
yet ready for publication, but the principal
poift is the destruction of the old saw mills
at the falls. At the office of the mill COM
pany yesterday nothing could be learned
concerning these plans, but the lumber
men all know that after this year no more
lumber will be cut at the falls. The loca-
ton of the saw mills is very valuable one,
and it is believed will be leased for other
and more lucrative purposes. The mills are
run by the mill company and for two years
past there has been no great fortune in
saving. 1t is also said an arrangement
will be made by which the water which
now operates the saw mills may be diverted
into the canal to increase the power of the
-four mill supply, which runs short in low
water. A GLOBE reporter called at the
office yesterday. but could get no informa-
ton concerning it beyond lit was rumor
current for some time past" but mo one

jump with its prize, a Masonic emblem. was

calls were made for game of ball, and the
Minneapolis and Khurum lodges chose sides
and spent about an hour in playing five in
nings. The victory lay with the Minneapo-
lis, the score standing IA to II. The
Minneapolis nine was represented by J. B.
Miller, W. B. Kinly, Ed Chase, j. II. At

had boated and fshed and the spectators to
the games, adjourned to Lake Park pavilion,
where dancing was the program until 1920.

him in the reports sent abroad of his reply to the

the mandate Of the powers upon a previous and
continued understanding with France. VI.
Deiyannis pointed out that these declarations
were not only unwarranted, but were liable to
neutrality-suspicious. which might have serious
consequences, and denied that on either of the
occasions referred to had he made any mention
of French mediation, or of any undertakings by
France In tho interest of Greece.
NJ Delaynnis confirmed the announced deter
mination of his government to disarm in very
short time. AS soon as the whole difficulty with
Turkey was removed. added the Premier,
Greece would disband the reserves.
Other dispatches state that the foreign minis
tiers at Athens expect the powers will receive
Greece's reply to the ultimatum favorably. The
German and italian ministers are however, said
to be less sangune about this than the represent
atives of the other powers.
The Russian government has notified it's rep

Somebody Stole Valuable Jewels, but Nobody
Suffers Except the Man Who Told the Story.
BERLIN, May 1.-The Countess Schwannen-
field is the name Of the lady limited at by the
Tagblatt in the narrative Of March last. This
story related that at ball given in Berlin by a
high functionary q countess famous for her
beauty and social position dazzled everybody
present by her display Of diamonds, especially of
q large diamond dove worn in her headdress.
This was lost, unnoticed by the owner. towards
the close of the entertainment. The loss was
quite heavy, and was talked about One day a
gossip reported to the police that her mistress, a
rival countess, possessed dove like the one lost.
and detective secured its return by threaten
ing to publish what he had learned
namely. that the second countess had
stolen the jewel from her rivals head. This
was the story published. with many hints, but
no names. The authorities were finally obliged
to prosecute Herr PERT the editor of the Tag
blatt, and Her Wolff the reporter who wrote
the story and during the trial, which has just
been closed. it was developed that the inspira-
ton for the prosecution came from the personal
friends of Countess Schwannenfeld The public
prosecutor asked that the sentence Of three
weeks imprisonment against Herr Pert should
be decreased.
unaware of any story like that published until
he saw it in print He had never heard that the
story meant to implicate the Countess Schwan-
nenfeld in the diamond theft. He was certain
he had never mentioned her name in connec-
ton with any robbery of diamonds. He
admitted, however, that about nine mouths ago
he had related to some intimate friends the
details of crime resembling in some
respects the story published by the Tagblatt
He was. however, utterly unable to imagine
how, from his tale, a story could be built up in
such an exaggerated form as the one the Tag
blatt published. Besides, he himself had learned
the facts of his own narrative from third
party, who had not vouched for its truth, and
the witness had no means Of ascerraining
whether it was true or false.
At this point the defense, to show that they
simply printed an interesting bit of gossip which
was widely current. produced copies of Ameri-
can papers of date contemporaneous with their
own publication, and containing the same story
in an entirely independent FORM
The public prosecutor denounced the publiea-
ton of gossip affecting characters. Such use of
scandals, he contended, endangered morality and
the general social interests of the country, and
even undermined the fabric of the empire by
raising doubts abroad concerning the integrity
of even the highest persons upon whose character
the quality of the government depended. The
judgment given decreed three days imprson-
ment against Herr Pert and fourteen days i'm
prisonment against Herr Wolff
