ed in police court today before Magis-
trate Olmstead on charges Of perjury
They were held in $4,000 bail each for

Edward Lauterbach, who appeared in

per company as to the ownership of the
pennsylvania mine in particular The
Delaware Surety company, he said, had
given bond for Mr.. Heinze to the extent
OF $350,00O in connection with the opera
tlon of the Pennsylvania mine, and the
pond has not been approved by the court

the Delaware Surety company was 81

learning of this instructed the sheriff
to arrest parties selling or giving away
beer at the next picnic. Last Sunday a
picnic was held at Wahasso under the

FROM UNDER OLD GLORY
BRITISH SAILORS FORCIBLY RE-
MOVED FROM AMERICAN SHIP.

HALIFAX, N. S., Oct. 1.-TWO British
sailors who had deserted from the war
ship Nlobe were forcibly taken from
the American schooner Mist this after
noon. Warrants for their arrest were
issued by Admiral Sir Frederick Bed
ford and an imperial government launch
having on board a squad of civil police
and an armed escort of marines went
out to the schooner.
A demand was made for me men and
the captain of the vessel was prepared
to give them up, but the sailors refused
to come on deck. The police boarded
the schooner and forcibly removed the
men.
Previous to this action Admiral Bed
ford had consulted with United States
Consul General Foster about the matter
Mr.. Foster thought that the marines had
better not go on board of the vessel but
gave his consent for the civil police
to take the sailors
In compliance with the consuI's wishes
none of the marines boarded the Mist.
The two sailors will be court-martialed
on the flagship Crescent.
