COUNTY JAIL
AL Mcintosh Receives Three
Months Sentence for ApprO.
priating a Bicycle

Police Judge Coburn's court was
crowded this afternoon by onlookers
who came to hear the evience in the
trial of AL Mcintosh, charged with ap-
propriating a bicycle New Years day.
belonging to Arthur Dunn the West
ern Union messenger boy.
Miles Johnson conducted the case for
the state, the prisoner acted as his own
attorney.
The prosecution called T. Powell who
testified to seeing the defendant exam
lining the wheel at the Kroutinger lot
on Main street.
Testimony of a young man living
on Chambers street showed that NC
Intosh tried to sell the wheel for $40
The young man Informed him he would
see him later, in the meantime notify
ing the police. He was ordered by the
chief to negotiate for it's purchase and
when Mcintosh was delivering the
goods the chief quietly took him into
custody.
Mcintosh took the stand in his own
behalf and stated that he had been
here about a month working as a la
borer on the supreme court building
and Masonic temple.
He claimed that he was formerly a
crack bicycle rider having appeared on
the tracks of California and Old Mex
leo and that he had left a couple of his
racing wheels in Spokane with friend
of his by name of Mitchell. He said
that Mitchell came down here Friday
and told him he had sold his wheel
but would give him another, which he
states is the one found in his pos
session.
= Mcintosh proved himself an old
timer in handling evidence and seemed
TO be aware of the technicalities of evil
dence. Attorney Johnson cross exam
ined Mcintosh and when he asked him
II Mitchell was the same man who
gave him a pipe. He wanted to know
what that had to do with the case and
refused to answer the question.
Attorney Johnson closed and sug-
gested that it was apparent that the
man was guilty and stated that about
four months in the county Jail would
keep him out of the bad weather. Nc
Intosh said that it looked to him DIS if
Johnson was Judge. jury and the whole
thing.
Mcintosh waived time and asked
that sentence be passed. Judge Coburn
was lenient and thought that three
months was sufficient for Mcintosh to
think over bicycles and form new res
olutions. He was committed to the
care of the sheriff and will join the
coterie at the county Jail.
Mcintosh states the end is not yet.
He says. his father Is A. J. Mcintosh,
government inspector for pine timber
I'm Minnesota and will communicate
with him and endeavor to clear his fair
name.

WASHINGTON. July 26.-In the ao-
sence of action by the Department VI
State in the case of seizures by ftus-
sian and japanese warships it appears
that the last official word on the SUD-
ject indicating the position OF the
Government is that contained In the
proclamation of President Roosevelt
of February IL last, just after the out
break of the war. This was little
different from the ordinary neutrality
proclamation, and, in addition to en-
joining citizens of the United States to
refrain from organizing military expe-
ditions in aid of the belligerents. con-
tained this clear statement for the
benefit Of many inquiring shipownerS
and exporting mercantile houses:
And that while all persons may law
fully and without restriction, by rea-
son of the aforesaid state of war, man
ufacture and sell within the United
States arms and ammunition and other
articles ordinarily known as contra
band OF war;, yet they cannot carry
such articles upon the high seas for
the use or service of either belligerent,
nor can they transport soldiers and
officers Of either, or attempt to break
any blockade which may lawfully be
established and maintained during the
war, without mourning the risk of hos
tile capture and the penalties provided
by the law of nations in that behalf.
And 1 do hereby give notice that all
citizens of the United States and others
who may claim the protection of this
Government who may misconduct
themselves in the premises will do so at
their peril, and that they can in nOwise
obtain any protection from the Govern
ment Of the United States against the
consequences of their misconduct
This makes clear to mercantile and
shipping interests the Presidents view
that 1t Is not in violation Of United
States law to ship contraband, but that
1t must be shipped at the owners risk
and is subject to seizure.

"On the following morning Leuten-
ant Colonel Dementieff, commanding a
detachment, determined to occupy the
southern slope of the hill. This was
done about noon. That afternoon the
Japanese attacked and turned our left
wing. Then, taking advantage of the
formation of the country, they began
to turn the right. Other companies OF
Dementieff's force FASTENED to his as
sistance. to which several companies
were also sent from the nearest points.
These troops as they arrived helped to
check the turning operations Of the
enemy, who finally brought into action,
however, as much as a brigade Of in
fantry. with which he pressed our
troops and turned both our flanks.
Our men, exposed to q terrible fire,
retired step by step, but at the same
time offering a stubborn resistance to
the enemy, who ceased to attack at Z
